Oahu
The entry straps are distributed in advance, so it was great to be able to save time and just enter. The kids were really happy. The only downside was that the return time was a bit too early (15:15).
入場のストラップも事前に配られるので、後は入場するのみで時間短縮出来て良かった。
子どももすごく喜んでました。
帰りの時間が少し早すぎるので(15:15)、そこだけが残念だった。
I had a great time!
I experienced the 150m jump, and it was very pleasant and fun.
I couldn't communicate in Japanese, but that wasn't a problem.
All the staff were cheerful, and I had no worries at all.
I participated in the 8 o'clock session, and it was about 80% Japanese and 20% foreigners. When we came down, everyone waiting was a foreigner. It's more fun if you go in with high energy since you can enjoy it with the people on board.
While waiting, they send out quite a few boats for the people flying, so motion sickness medication is a must.
After flying, I gave a $10 tip per person.
On the way back, I gave the driver an additional $10 for the group.
I want to participate again!
とても楽しかったです!
150mで体験しましたが、とても気持ちよく、楽しかったです。
日本語は通じませんが、問題ありません。
スタッフの人皆さん愉快で、不安もなにもありませんでした。
8時のに参加しましたが、日本人8割外人2割というところ。降りてきた時に待っていた人たちは全て外人でした。乗ってる人たちで楽しめるのでテンションは高めに行った方が楽しいです。
待ってる間は飛んでる人たちのために結構ボートを飛ばしたりするので、酔い止めは必須です。
飛んだ後はチップは1人で10ドル渡しました。
帰りにドライバーさんに別で1グループ10ドル渡しました。
また参加したいです!
My 6-year-old daughter was super excited until it actually started, but from the moment she jumped with the harness on until it was taken off, she cried the whole time. My husband and I were having fun and smiling the entire time, so the contrast in the photos we took is quite something... If we ever go to Hawaii again, I want to challenge myself to the next level at 120 meters.
実際にはじまるまでノリノリだった6歳の娘はハーネスをつけて飛んだ瞬間からハーネスを外すまでずーっと泣いていました。
私と主人は楽しくてずーっと笑顔だったので、撮ってもらった写真の対照的なことといったら…
またハワイに行く事があったらもうワンランク上の120メートルにチャレンジしたいなと思っています。
Very nice and safe activity for my family.
I cannot forget that.
Thank you for the guide's kind and funny support.
My daughter and I were first timers at parasailing. We were a little nervous, but from the time we got in the van to be taken to the boat, our nerves were calmed immediately by the driver. Once we got to the boat, the crew was amazing and were funny and put our minds at ease. We loved it so much and want to do it again!
I was able to interact directly with dolphins, and it was truly healing for my heart! It felt like the dolphins helped me treat my daily stress and worries. (o^^o)
直にイルカと触れ合い心が癒されました!
日頃のストレスや悩みをイルカに治療してもらえた感じでした(o^^o)
We participated as a group of six across three generations. Initially, I thought my grandparents would wait at the hotel since they wouldn't be doing parasailing, but they were able to join us on the boat as companions. They ended up enjoying the cruising experience more than expected and said it was really nice.
The four of us rode in different combinations: first with the two kids and my mother, and then with the two kids and my father. The children got to experience it twice without any additional fees, which felt like a little bonus.
We had 96 photos taken, and the SD card cost $30. I tried to take pictures while parasailing myself, but it was hard to get good shots from a distance, so I was glad to have those taken for us.
It was a lot of fun, but I did struggle with how much to tip at the end, so I think it would be better if that was included from the start.
親子3世代6人で参加しました。
祖父母はパラセイリングはしないのでホテルで待っていてもらおうと思っていましたが、付き添いで船だけでも乗れるのいうので一緒に参加しました。でも思いがけずクルージング気分が楽しめてとてもよかったと言っていました。
私達4人は最初は子供二人と母、2回目は子供二人と父という組み合わせで乗り、子供たちは2回も体験しましたが、追加料金がかかることもなくちょっと得した気分でした。
写真は96枚も撮っていただき、SDカードで30ドルでした。
パラセイリングをしているところの写真は自分で撮ろうとすると距離もあり、なかなかうまく撮れなかったので、撮っていただいてよかったです。
とっても楽しかったのですが、やはり最後にチップの金額でとても迷ったので、最初から組み込まれているといいと思いました。
My first experience with parasailing. Our family, along with two groups of American guests and a friend's family, boarded a small boat and headed offshore. My son was nervous at first seeing parasailing for the first time, but he came back with a big smile after actually doing it.
It's common to get dropped into the water when landing, so I recommend asking the staff for a "Dry Landing Please" to avoid getting wet.
I want to go again!
初体験のパラセイリング。アメリカ人のお客さん2組と私達家族と一緒に行っていた友人家族の4組で小型の船に乗り沖合へ。初めて見るパラセイリングに顔が固まっていた息子でしたが、実際やると笑顔で帰ってきました。
普通は降りる際ぽちゃん、と海に落とされるのがお約束のようで、「Dry Landing Please」と濡らさずに着地させてもらえるようスタッフにお願いすることをオススメします。
また行きたいな。
Wet'n'Wild for three consecutive years was consistently fun! My son finally exceeded 120 cm, so there were more slides he could enjoy, and we had a great time. Since we had a rental car, we opted for the plan without transportation. It was a fun day!
3年連続のWet'nWild
安定の楽しさでしたー。息子もやっと120cmを超えて乗れるスライダーが増え、色々楽しめました。
レンタカーだったので送迎無しプランで。
楽しい1日でしたw
It seems that the tides vary by day, and on the day of my visit, the sandbar was not fully exposed. It's a pity. Initially, the shallow sea and sandbar offered an hour and a half of free time, but I ended up walking endlessly with nothing to do. The lunch hamburger was quite delicious. During the snorkeling in the afternoon, I unexpectedly encountered a sea turtle. I was lucky.
日によって満ち引きの違いがあるみたいで、当日はサンドバーが完璧に出てませんでした。
残念。
最初遠浅の海、サンドバーですが、に1時間半の自由時間、する事がなく延々歩きました。
ランチハンバーガーは、かなり美味しいです。
昼からのシュノーケリングで、偶然ウミガメに遭遇。
ラッキーでした。
At first, I thought the pickup time was too early, but since I arrived early, I was guided to a table with a view of the fireworks. The food was just okay. The fireworks started late, and I had to wait quite a bit, but the view was fantastic, and I was satisfied.
最初は、ピックアップ時間が早過ぎると思ってましたが、早く着いたため、花火が見える方のテーブルを案内してもらいました。
食べ物は、まぁ〜そんな感じかなって。
花火が上がる時間が遅く、かなり待ちましたが、最高の眺めで満足です。
We are a couple in our fifties. I'm not good with heights, but I participated at my husband's request. I was nervous when getting on the boat, but the efficient crew set everything up, and before I knew it, we were up in the sky. Since we were over the ocean, I didn't feel the height much, and it was refreshing; I kept shouting, "This feels great!" In the end, I enjoyed it more than my husband did.
50を軽く超えた夫婦です。私は高い所は苦手ですが主人の希望で参加しました。
船に乗る時はドキドキしていましたが、手際のいいクルーにセッティングされてあっと言う間に空の上へ。
海の上なので高さはさほど感じなくて気分爽快、ずっと「気持ちいいー!」と叫んでいました。結果、主人よりも楽しんでいました。
The sandbar had clear and beautiful water.
As expected, the sightseeing in Japan was enjoyable.
The pickup arrived on time.
サンドバーは水が澄んでいてとてもきれいでした。
やはり日本語の観光は楽でした。
時間通りに迎えも来ました。
I recommend allowing plenty of time to get there. It takes about an hour from Waikiki, so it would be good to arrive at the location with some extra time! The last time I was late, there was no refund and no horseback riding for me.
時間にゆとりをもって向かうことをオススメします。ワイキキから1時間はかかるので余裕をもって現地に入れるといいですね!
以前遅行した際は返金なし、乗馬もなしになりました。
レビューをありがとうございます!素晴らしい時間を過ごされたことを願っており、またお会いできることを楽しみにしています!

Mahalo for your review! We hope you had a great time and hope to see you again!

My daughter (13 years old) and I went parasailing together. Since my daughter was about to start her monthly cycle, we made an early morning reservation (8:00) two days after arriving in Hawaii. It was so much fun that we were laughing the whole time. The experience lasted about six and a half minutes, which was longer than I expected, and that was great. Up in the air, it was incredibly quiet, and we could see Diamond Head very well. I think early morning is better since it might be hot during the day. We also got photos for $30, which I plan to use for our New Year's cards. I enjoy high places and roller coasters, but I didn't feel nauseous at all while on the boat or parasailing.
娘(13歳)と2人でパラセイリングしました。娘が月に一度の女の子の日が来そうだったので、ハワイ到着後に早朝予約(8:00)で前々日に予約取れました。楽しすぎて、ずーっと笑いっぱなしでした。開始から終了までは6分半位で思っていたより長くてよかったです。上空では、凄く静かでダイヤモンドヘッドもよくみえました。多分昼間の時間帯は暑いので早朝がいいと思います。写真($30)もSDでもらい年賀状に使おうと思います。高い所、ジェットコースターも好きな方ですが、ボートもパラセイリングも酔う様な感じでは無かったです。
We participated in this cruise as the start of my cousin's bachelor party and boy what a great way to start it out! The catamaran was so cool, there was plenty of room for everyone, the staff was helpful and very friendly, and the views were breathtaking. We even saw a sea turtle at the end! The staff made it so fun and made some pretty good drinks to boot. The appetizers were not great, but that is not why we were on the cruise. It was a relaxing and easy cruise right off the pier and around Diamond Head. The sunset views were beautiful. I would highly recommend taking a sunset Waikiki Sail on the Spirit of Aloha.
At first, I thought it would be scary, but once I tried it, it was not scary at all, and the view was really beautiful! I was partially submerged in the sea, which was also very fun and became a great memory! The staff entertained us with various conversations!
最初はこわいと思っていたけれど飛んでみたら全然怖くなくて景色もとてもキレイでした‼
海に少し沈められました。それもとても面白くていい思い出になりました❗スタッフさんはいろいろな喋りで楽しませてくれました❗
I had a very enjoyable experience.
The staff were friendly, and it was fine even though I couldn't speak Japanese.
My daughter and I signed up for 120 meters, while the other family signed up for 150 meters, but when we got there, it didn't seem to matter at all; we were all launched.
It was fun.
I want to do it again.
とても楽しい経験ができました。
スタッフの人も気さくで、日本語通じなくても平気でした。
娘と私は120メートルで、他の家族は150メートルで申し込みましたが、行ってみるとそんなこと全然関係ない感じで、飛ばされます。
楽しかったです。
またやりたいです。
I had high expectations, so I was a bit disappointed with the service. I arrived 40 minutes before opening time and had to wait in the blazing sun until the park opened. There were very few shaded areas near the entrance, making it quite tough for small children.
I had made a reservation for a cabana in advance, but the staff initially said there was no reservation. Since it wasn't booked, the person at the reception left their post. After showing the reservation form and negotiating through the wasted time, they finally prepared the cabana for us.
On the positive side, the staff were Japanese, and it was great that each cabana had a dedicated staff member who took drink and food orders without us having to wait. They were very kind!
期待も大きかったので少しサービス面で残念な面がありました。
開園時間よりも40分前に到着しましたが炎天下の中で開園まで待ちぼうけ、入り口付近には屋根が少なく日陰も少ないので小さいお子さんはかなり辛そうでした。
事前にガバナを予約していきましたが現地で予約されていないという対応からはじまり、予約されていないため受付の子が席をはずしてしまいました。その後予約表を見せながら無駄時間と交渉後ようやく用意がされました。
良い点は日本の方でしたがガバナごとに担当者がついて飲み物、食事を待たずに注文できたのは良いですね!とても親切でした!
I struggled a bit with using the fins, and at 65 years old, it was challenging, but it was amazing to see everything twice. The event was changed due to the weather, but I got to see sea turtles twice, and I had a fun day. The female staff and the captain were friendly and great.
足ヒレの使い方が上手く出来なく、65才の私にはハードでしたが2度も見れて最高でした。
天候の状況でイベントが変更になりましたが、海ガメにも2度も会えたし、楽しい1日を過ごせました。
スタッフの女性や船長もフレンドリーで最高でした。
ALOHA!! Thank you for participating in Dolphin University! We are glad to hear that you had a fun time. We look forward to your next participation. MAHALO!!
ALOHA!! この度はイルカ大学にご参加いただきありがとうございました! 楽しいお時間になったようで幸いです。またのご参加をお待ちしております。MAHALO!!
Our guides were so friendly and fabulous, amazing tour, a lot of places seen in the tv show and so well explained, just some word
DO IT !
There are Japanese staff members, but the basic staff members are English speakers, so if you don't understand English, you might feel left out. I thought it might have been better to have more university-related staff.
When boarding the boat, it's better to sit in the open back so you can participate in various activities and enjoy yourself.
I applied for photos, but you won't get photographed unless you actively ask for it. During the time to enjoy activities, make sure to go and say, "Please take my picture!"
Many people were feeling seasick. It was nice weather, though. The motion sickness wristbands I bought on the pickup bus were expensive, but I believe they helped my daughters and me not to get sick! Our family usually has a weak constitution.
日本人のスタッフの方もいますが、基本英語のスタッフの方々が楽しい会話をしていますので、英語がわからないと置いてけぼり感を感じます。
大学さん系の方が良かったかなーと思いました。
船に乗るときは屋根のない後方に座ったほうが色々と参加できて楽しめます。
写真を申し込みましたが、積極的にアピールしに行かないと写してもらえません。
アクテビティを楽しむ時間には「写して〜」とアピールしに行きましょう。
かなりの方が船酔いしていました。
良いお天気だったのですが。
ピックアップのバスの中で買った酔い止めのリストバンド、高いですが、我が家の娘達&私が酔わなかったのはこれのおかげだと思います‼︎普段弱い家族なので。
It was fun and we had a good time. Only wish the course could have been bigger.
Me too! The State of Hawaii tells all the operators how big the course will be. I am so glad you have a great jet ski memory from Hawaii
It was my first time participating, and since it was my first tour to see wild dolphins, I had a great time. However, the content was a bit hard for small children, and I felt it was a little dangerous with too many participants, as fins occasionally hit my face.
初めての参加でしたが、野生のイルカに会えるツアーは初めてだったので楽しかったです。
小さい子供にはちょっとハードな内容だったのと、
参加者母数が少々多く、フィンが顔に当たるなどちょっと危険かなと感じました。
ALOHA! Ururu-sama,
Thank you for participating in the Dolphin University this time. Since it’s a tour with wild dolphins, there may be days when you have to swim quite a bit depending on the dolphins' mood. However, I'm glad to hear that your children enjoyed it!
Please do join us again when you come back to Hawaii. All of our staff are looking forward to welcoming you.
MAHALO!
Dolphin Office, Saki
ALOHA ! うるるさま
この度はイルカ大学へのご参加ありがとうございました。
野生のイルカとのツアーなので、イルカ先生の気分次第ではしっかりと泳がなければいけない日もございます。
ですが、お子様にもお楽しみいただけたようでよかったです!
またハワイへお越しの際はぜひご参加くださいませ。
スタッフ一同心よりおまちしております。
MAHALO !

The staff was friendly. The weather was nice too, which helped create great memories flying with my kids. I don't think it's something we can do often, but we had a wonderful time talking about places like Waikiki Beach and Diamond Head with the kids.
スタッフが感じよかった。天気もよかったせいもありますが子供と飛んでいい思い出ができました。何度も翔ようなものではないと思いますが、ワイキキビーチ・ダイアモンドヘッドなど、子供とあそこがどーのとか話しながらいい時間がすごせました。
There is a similar water park in Tokyo, but we went there at the request of the kids. As expected, the slides were extremely crowded, and it didn't feel enjoyable at all. I don't think we'll go there on our next trip.
東京にも同様のウォーターパークがありますが、子供の希望により行きました。ある程度予測できたことですが、スライダー類はとにかく混んでいて、楽しいという感じではありませんでした。次回の旅行では、まず行かないと思います。
It's great to have guidance in Japanese, and the Hawaiian jokes are fun too. We drove around the jungle in a speeding Jeep and visited plants at a farm and ranch. In the afternoon, my younger child suddenly needed to go to the bathroom, which made us late for the movie tour, and the bus we had reserved left without us. However, the ticket center quickly arranged for the next bus. We were super excited at the entrance to Jurassic Park. The facilities are very accommodating, which is reassuring. The program is friendly for families with children. However, the early morning is a bit tough. With a 7:10 AM pickup, I had to wake up at least by 6 AM. Since breakfast was at 7, I gave up and woke up at 5:30 to make porridge in the hotel kitchen. If the program could be adjusted, it would be nice to have a menu with one in the morning and two in the afternoon.
日本語で案内してもらえるのと、ハワイアンジョーク?がまた楽しい。疾走するジープでジャングルをまわったり、農園や牧場で植物を見学したり。午後、下の子が急にトイレに行きたがって、映画ツアーの時間に遅れてしまい、予約してたバスは行ってしまったんですが、チケットセンターですぐ次のバスを手配してくれました。ジュラシックパークの入り口?セットに大興奮。施設内は、至れり尽くせりで、安心ですね。子供連れにはやさしいプログラムです。ただし、朝早いのがちょっとしんどい。7時10分ピックアップだと、朝は最低でも6時起床です。朝食が7時からだったので、諦めて、私だけ5時半に起きてホテルのキッチンで雑炊作りました。プログラムを調整できるんだったら、朝一つ、午後二つ、とかのメニューがあっても良いのでは。
Tropical fish gather around the coral, and when you offer them food, they take it from your hand. However, my 10-year-old son seemed to find it more interesting to catch sea slugs. The hamburger was delicious with a nice grilled aroma, the best! My 4-year-old son was thrilled to float around happily in his life jacket.
サンゴのそばに熱帯魚が群れて、もらった餌で寄せると手から取っていきます。でも、10歳の息子はウミウシをつかむ方が面白かった様です。ハンバーガー、直火が香ばしくて、最高!4歳のむすこは、ライフジャケットでプカプカ浮かんで大喜びでした。
As first time snorkelling for our family instructors Dan and Chieko were great helping us all the way would recommend this tour
Hi Craig, glad you guys had a good time. Hope we see you again. Dan and Chieko.
Take the earliest shuttle (6:00 a.m. from your hotel) to avoid beach crowd and avoid the park fee (if you get there before 7:00 -- no additional park fee!).
Driver was courteous, informative and fun. Equipment was in great condition, and you can expand on what you get (which is basics, but enough) for very little cost.
Had about 2.5 hours of snorkeling fun.
