All Reviews for Kid Friendly (Ages 5-7)

My friends and I had a wonderful time at the Spirit of Aloha!
The departing location is very convenient and we could just walk from our our hotel. The check-in was fast and after we boarded the Captain gave us a safety briefing and we started the sail.
The appetizers were good, they have a small buffet line with wings, meatballs and dried snacks. The bar has a selection of draft beer, champagne and cocktails and the prices are very reasonable. Watching the sunset in Hawaii listening to good music, cocktails and friends was the highlight of trip. The views from Waikiki are amazing and at this time of the year, after the sunset we still got to sail under the starts and it was very relaxing. Make sure to include this cruise on your next trip to Hawaii!

I chose to participate in the cruise specifically for the fireworks on Friday, but on the day of the event, it was announced that due to strong winds, the fireworks would not take place, and we returned to port instead. What was even more disappointing was that after departing, we spent a considerable amount of time just circling around the harbor, with hardly any change in the scenery outside, leaving no enjoyment at all; we were just listening to music inside the ship. Additionally, the ship was not very large, which caused significant rocking, and many people were feeling seasick. I also chose a menu that included lobster, but the meat was dry and seemed old, resulting in a disappointing meal. While waiting for the fireworks, there was nothing to see outside, which made the time drag on and caused some frustration. Moreover, there was a pushy sales tactic for the photos taken during boarding, which was not very pleasant.

楽しそうなクルーズとして、花火のある金曜日をわざわざ選んで参加したのですが、当日は風が強いとのことで、最終的に花火の打ち上げはなく、そのまま帰港となりました。そのことよりも期待はずれなのは、出航してからも、港の中を 相当な時間ただグルグル回るだけで、船外の風景はほとんど変わらず、まったく楽しみは無く、船内での音楽を聴いているだけだったことでした。また、船があまり大きくないこともあり揺れがひどく、船酔いしている人も多くいました。さらに食事は、ロブスター入りのメニューを選んだのですが、身はパサパサで 古いのではないかと思うほど、残念な結果でした。また、花火を いつかいつかと待っている間、船外の風景は見るものもないため暇を持て余し少しイライラしている中、乗船時に取られた写真の押し売りもあり、あまり気持ちの良いものではありませんでした。

It was tough to gather early in the morning, but I heard that the best time to see dolphins is in the early morning, so I persevered.
As a reward for my efforts, I was moved to see so many dolphins! They swam close to us multiple times.
The crew was entertaining and amazing! The hula dance was also fun.
The hamburger after swimming with the dolphins was exceptional!

早朝で集合が早く大変でしたがイルカを見るなら早朝が良いと聞き頑張りました。
頑張ったご褒美♡イルカがたくさん見れ感動！何度も近くを泳いでくれました。
クルーの人たちを面白く最高！フラダンスも楽しかったです。
イルカと泳いだ後のハンバーガーは格別でした！

I was initially anxious about my first trip to Hawaii, but the guide was truly wonderful and the best part of the experience. She was a cheerful and friendly Japanese female guide who taught us everything with great care. I was also very satisfied to encounter sea turtles! It seems that the guide also offers scuba diving tours, so I would definitely like to request her for my next visit.

初めてのハワイツアーで最初は不安でしたが、まずガイドさんが本当にいい人で最高でした。日本人の明るく気さくな女性ガイドさんで一から丁寧に教えてもらえました☆
海亀にも出会えて大満足でした☆
ガイドさんはスキューバダイビングのガイドもしていただけるみたいなんで、次回は是非指名でお願いしたいです♪

My son is 9 years old.
He can not use horse riding and atv.
but, we can use raptor atv with my son.

In late November, the water temperature was a bit low, so I rented a wetsuit. Since it was morning, I think I wouldn't have enjoyed it if I hadn't worn one (^_^;) The guide, who spoke fluent Japanese, and the other staff members were all bright and friendly.

After heading out to sea for a while, we were able to encounter a lot of dolphins right away! We watched quietly without making any noise to avoid startling them. There was a briefing beforehand about the precautions when encountering dolphins and turtles. I thought it was wonderful that they showed consideration for the wildlife. We also saw about 3 or 4 turtles and around 4 rays. Plus, we even saw a double rainbow!ヽ(^0^)ﾉ

After that, we played on the slide from the boat and kayaked, then enjoyed hamburgers to wrap up the tour. I was just a bit hungry, so it was appreciated. Additionally, a group photo of everyone was sent via email, which I thought was a nice service.

The highlight of this tour is not just seeing dolphins from the boat, but being able to see wild dolphins up close! My first trip to Hawaii turned out to be a wonderful experience (*^o^*). I would definitely recommend it to my friends.

11月後半で、水温は少し低めなので、ウェットスーツをレンタルしました。朝ということもあり、しなかったら寒くて楽しめなかったと思います(^_^;)
流暢な日本語を話すガイドさんをはじめ、他のスタッフの方も明るく親切な方ばかりでした。

沖の方に出てしばらくするとすぐにたくさんのイルカに出会う事ができました！驚かさないよう、音をたてずにじーっと見ました。
事前に、イルカとカメに出会った時の注意事項の説明がありました。野生の生き物に対する配慮もあり、素晴らしい思いました。
そして、カメも3、4匹、エイも4匹ほど見ることが出来ました。あと、ダブルレインボーもヽ(^0^)ﾉ

その後、船からの滑り台やカヤックなどで遊んで、ハンバーガーをいただきツアー終了。ちょうど小腹がすいていたので有り難かったです。
あと、全員の集合写真がメールで送られてきていて、それも良いサービスだなと思いました。

船からイルカを見るのではなく、野生のイルカを間近に見れるのがこのツアーのポイントですね！
初ハワイ、素敵な旅行になりました(*^o^*)
友達にもすすめたいと思いました。

My friends and I had a great time at the Waikiki Starlight Luau!
The location is very convenient and we could just walk from our our hotel. Once we arrived the check-in was fast and we had a friendly staff greeting us with a Hawaiian lei and a welcome drink, nothing better than start the night with a Mai Tai! The food was very delicious and I love the variety of the food, specially the salads. It's great that they have a station specially for the kids.
The show was wonderful, full of delightful performances. My favorite part was the fire knife dance and to learn more about the other Polynesian cultures like Tonga, New Zeland, Samoa and Tahiti.
I would for sure come back to the this luau!

Perfect way to spend an afternoon in Waikiki! The Catamaran was fun by itself, but then snorkeling with the Turtles made it even that much better. When we decide to travel to Hawaii again, we will definitely do this trip again. Great value for the money.

This was a simply breathtaking afternoon. Oahu is extremely varied, with cliffs, valleys and beaches, alternating between shades of blue, green, white and red. You don't really notice it from the ground, but seeing it all from high above has given me a new appreciation for the island. Our pilot made us feel safe and secure the entire time, and the chance to do an exciting landing along a narrow ridge at the top of Ka'a'awa Valley only made the experience that much more incredible.

It was a windy day, so it was difficult to go out to the open sea, and we ended up snorkeling in the shallows. However, thanks to Mr. Dan's accurate guidance, we were able to see sea turtles about four times! Hanauma Bay has high transparency, and we were able to see many other fish as well, so I recommend this place for snorkeling!

風の強い日だったので、沖の方まで行くことが難しく浅瀬でのシュノーケリングになりましたが、ダン先生の的確なポイントでうみがめちゃんを4回くらい見ることができました！ハナウマ湾は透明度が高く、他にもたくさんのお魚が見れたので、シュノーケリング目的でしたらここをお勧めします！

I'm glad I choose to celebrate birth on the island 30 years ago with Star of Honolulu. Best birthday ever!!

I joined this tour dreaming of beautiful sandy beaches on my first trip to Hawaii. However, due to strong winds, slightly high waves, and high tide, we couldn't see the sandbar at all. While I understand that the strong winds and high waves, along with poor water clarity, are due to the weather, I wish they had announced the high tide in advance since that is something that can be known beforehand. I was imagining a beautiful sandy beach, so I was very disappointed.

初めてのハワイで素敵な砂浜を夢見てこのツアーに参加しました。しかし、風が強く、波も少し高く、満ち潮だった為サンドバーは全く見れませんでした。風が強く、波も高くなり、海の透明度が悪いのは天候なので仕方ありませんが、満ち潮は事前に分かることなのでアナウンスしてもらいたかったです。綺麗な砂浜を想像していたので、非常にガッカリしました。

Great experience overall, from the ground crew to the flight. This is definitely thee best way to see the island and the best option if you are staying on the West Side of the island / Ko Olina resorts.

The pilot is very experienced, polite and knowledgeable. The flight was very exciting and gave us an amazing sights of the island. Even if you don't get a window seat you still get a great view. The aircraft have a two way communication between the pilot and the guest, so while he is talking storied about the location you can ask questions and he will answer.
Oahu is just an wonderful place, we saw Hanauma Bay; Diamond Head; Waikiki beach; Pearl Harbor; the unique Kaneohe bay and the sandbar; the mountains at Kualoa Ranch are mesmerizing, makes you feel like you are at Jurassic Park; the famous beaches on the North Shore, Kaena Point and the beautiful West Coast.
If you have the chance add the land on top of Kualoa Ranch mountains, the pilot surprised us with champagne, drinks and chocolate covered strawberries. Very romantic addition to the tour.
It's a long flight, make sure to bring a bottle of water and got to the bathroom before the flight.

I would recommend Paradise Helicopters to everybody!

Without a question this is a 5 star experience. This is one of those moments in life you will never forget and will probably want to do again. The staff is very friendly and experienced and they have great respect for the ocean and its creatures. They gave us a safety briefing and explained what to expect with the sharks and what not do, first thing we heard was "keep all the negative associations with sharks at the shore, go in with an open mind".
We got to swim around Sandbar & Galapagos sharks ranging from 5-10 feet, absolutely mind blowing. Some of them were curious and came close to us! It was a little scared first, but the guide kept us safe during the whole time. While we were enjoying that magical moment another crew member took great pictures of the encounter.
Absolutely a must-do activity if you are in Hawaii. I would love to go out with the Islandview Hawaii crew again!

Two years ago, I experienced a dinner cruise on a catamaran, and based on that experience, I signed up again this time, but it was completely different.

First of all, last time we had a two-person table by the window where we could enjoy music and hula dancing while dining. This time, however, we were seated at a round table for eight on the first floor, and our tablemates were loud Westerners. I had requested the best plan, which was supposed to include lobster and was located near the restroom at the back near the entrance, but even though I knew it was a buffet, the food quality was the worst I had ever experienced. I accepted everything and finished my meal quickly to head up to the deck on the third floor. As I glanced at the second floor, I couldn't help but feel frustrated at the crew members who had assigned us to our groups when boarding, thinking, "Was it that person who made the mistake?"

The reason for my frustration was that the second-floor seating was arranged with individual two-person tables in a calm and quiet atmosphere, and I felt envious watching them enjoy their meals. What was I doing on the first floor? I realized that no one had lobster either! This only added to my anger and regret. I thought I would never ride again, so I kept it to myself, but I received an email asking for my experience, so I decided to share it in hopes it might help those considering this cruise.

2年前にもカタマランタイプの船にてディナークルーズを体験しました、その時のイメージにて
今回も申し込んだのですが、まったく別物でした。
まず、席が前回は2人掛けの席で、窓側を確保して頂き音楽やフラダンス等を鑑賞しながら
食事ができたものが、今回は１階フロアで円卓の8人掛け　そして合い席の方々は大声で話する欧米の方でした。　最後尾中央の出入り口近くでトイレの一番近く、ロブスター付きの一番良いとされるプランでお願いしたものが、ビッフェと判っていたものの、食事内容は過去最低　すべて受け入れて軽く食事を済ませ、早々に3階のデッキにに上がるため途中の2階フロアを横目で見た途端に、乗船時にグループごとに振り分けていたクルーの顔が憎たらしく感じ、「あいつが間違えやがったのか！」と思え尚更悔しく思いました。
その理由が、2階席が2人掛けの個別席で用意されいてすごく静かな落ち着いた良い雰囲気の中
食事されている様子が羨ましく感じ、今の1階で食事していたのは何！　そういえば誰もロブスターは無かったし！　と考えれば余計に腹立たしくも思え後悔だけがこみ上げましたが、　2度と乗る事もないのでと胸の内にしまっていましたが、体験談を書いて下さいのメールが入っていたので、　検討中の方々に参考になればと　思い投稿することにしました。

Overall experience was fantastic. Felt like a condensed cruise trip. Need to make sure you don't eat the trip away because they keep bringing food and before you know it you are back to the dock. Good entertainment staff.

This place at gunstock ranch was amazing the workers there were supportive right off the back. The greeting felt like home, no worries even though we were late due to the place due to traffic the team was very understanding. The 10,000 acre ranch was nice riding cowgirl and McAllen and being followed bullet the donkey was very romanctic. The horses were very easy to ride our tour guide did a good job telling us a little about the ranch what they have to offer and how we can learn a little about HAWAII history there. Me and my wife will most diffently want to come back and do the night dinner I'd enjoy this again prob try the advance racing of horses.

The tour was great but just one thing; they don't have prescription boggles.

I was trying to buy or rent them,
but the website said there are a few of them and a person who called for a confirmation a day before the tour said the same thing, so I didn't bring them.
It turned out they don't carry them anymore.

That was kinda annoying.

The driver came to pick me up at the nearest point to the hotel, and he was very kind. Even though I don't understand English, I was able to enjoy the activities without any problems!

ホテルの最寄のところまで迎えに来てくれて運転手の方も優しくて英語がわからない私でも問題なくアクティビティを楽しむことができました！

This was the only activity I experienced on my first trip to Hawaii! Unfortunately, the weather wasn't great, but I had a lot of fun and was very satisfied! I definitely want to do it again♪ Since this review was very helpful, I’d like to report my experience in detail!

【Height】It felt more like the duration of being airborne (and the distance from the boat) changed rather than the "altitude." I think it was about 45m? Those who mentioned 150m seemed to feel it wasn't much different from our height. By the way, I can't stand on the glass floor of Tokyo Tower, but I wasn't scared at all during parasailing, perhaps because I felt safe with the ocean below me! The part you sit on felt relatively sturdy; it swayed but also felt stable (^^)

【Seasickness】I read many reviews warning about seasickness, so I made sure to take motion sickness medication before going (laughs). I usually get motion sickness, but maybe because of the medication or my mental preparation, I didn't feel sick at all. The boat does sway quite a bit, but if you look straight ahead instead of to the side, it's relatively manageable.

【Time】We had a little over an hour with five groups. Since we were the first to fly, I thought we might be bored afterward, but surprisingly, the boat itself was quite fun as an activity☆ (On the way back, the captain tilted the boat for a fun ride, which was amusing!)

【Bad Weather】On the day we initially booked, it was canceled due to "bad weather from strong winds," and we were able to reschedule for the next day. The following day, it was lightly raining, but since the winds weren't strong, we were able to go parasailing safely♪ I was very surprised by how thorough the procedures for rescheduling due to cancellation were. Since the cancellation decision was made relatively close to the time (two hours before), they called both my registered mobile and hotel room, and I received a prompt and polite email afterward. The contact was from VELTRA, not the local company, so everything was in Japanese, which was very helpful, and they assisted with the reservation changes during the phone call.

【Language】As mentioned above, since I could rely on VELTRA for the procedures, it was all in Japanese, which was a relief. At the reception, there was a Japanese woman, so I didn't have any issues there. On the boat, there were only local staff, but they communicated the necessary information in Japanese, so there were no problems at all! However, it was a bit disappointing that I couldn't engage in more conversation with the lively staff. I regretted my English skills.

【Others】
- The basic idea was "splashing into the sea," and you could ask not to be splashed if you didn't want to.
- The photo service was $30 for cash and $35 for card payment. Even if you didn't request it, they took photos as a standard practice, and after returning, you could easily check the photos and purchase the ones you liked. I think it's worth buying the photos of yourself flying since they won't take those unless you ask♪
- I prepared tips separately to give at the end of the trip.
- I was impressed by the captain's control of the parachute (laughs).

初めてのハワイ旅行で唯一体験したアクティビティでした！あいにくの天気ではありましたが、とても楽しく満足できました！またぜひやってみたい♪こちらの口コミがとても参考になったので、詳しめに体験談をレポートしたいと思います！

【高さ】”高度”というより滞空時間（と船からの距離）が変わる印象です。おそらく45mかな？と思われる方々の回はちょっと時間的に物足りなさそうに感じました。また、150mとおっしゃっていた方たちの高さは、さほど自分たちと変わらないように感じました。
ちなみに、私は東京タワーのガラス床に立てないですが、パラセイリングは下が海という安心感（？）からか、全然恐くありませんでした！乗る部分も比較的しっかりしていて、揺れるけど安定感もあった気がします(^^)

【船酔い】口コミで散々船酔いに注意とあったので、酔い止めをしっかり飲んで臨みました（笑）私は乗り物酔いはよくする方ですが、薬のせいか事前の心の準備があったせいか、全然酔いませんでした。確かに船はだいぶ揺れます。が、横を見ずに進行方向を見るとかすると比較的大丈夫です。

【時間】私たちは5組で1時間強でした。1番最初に飛んだので、後の時間が暇かなぁと思ってましたが、意外と船自体がアクティビティ的で楽しめました☆（帰港の時は船長さんの遊び心で船体を傾けてのライドで面白かったです！）

【悪天候】私たちは、最初に予約した日は「強風による悪天候」でその日は全日不催行になり、次の日に再予約してもらいました。次の日は、小雨が降る中でしたが、風が強くなかったのでＯＫとのことで無事パラセイリングを実施することができました♪
この不催行による予約変更等の手続きが、非常に丁寧で驚きました。実施2時間前という比較的時間が迫っている中での不催行決定だったからか、登録していた携帯とホテルの部屋にも電話があり、その後すぐに丁寧なメールが来ました。現地の会社さんではなく、VELTRAさんからの連絡だったのですべて日本語対応でしたし、その電話のやりとりの中で予約変更の手続きもしていただいて、非常に助かりました。

【言語】上記の通り、手続き関係はVELTRAさんにお願いできたので全面日本語で助かりました。現地では、受付に日本人の女性の方がいたのでこちらも困ることはありませんでした。船上では現地スタッフの方たちだけでしたが、必要最低限のことは日本語でも伝えてくれるので全く問題ありませんでした！ただ、とても盛り上げてくださる方たちだったのに必要以上のお話しができなかったのは残念。自分の英語力を悔やみました。

【その他】
・「海にドボン」が基本で、入れてほしくない時にお願いする感じでした。
・写真のサービスは、現金だと30ドル・カード払いだと35ドルでした。頼んでいなくても基本は写真を撮ってくれていて、帰港後に簡単に写真をチェックして、気に入れば購入するという形でした。自分が飛んでる様子は頼まないと撮れないので、購入した方が記念になると思います♪
・チップは別途準備しました。帰港時に渡します。
・船長さんたちのパラシュートのコントロール力に感動しました（笑）

The Keana Farm zipline was amazing. I chose this place because it was the only zipline with transportation included, and it was the right choice. Japanese is basically not understood, but the three instructors were very friendly, and I was very satisfied.

ケアナファームジップライン最高。送迎付きジップラインはケアナファームしかなかったのでここを選択しましたが、正解でした。
日本語は基本的に通じませんが、3人のインストラクターはとてもフレンドリーで大満足でした。

I participated in surfing alone in Hawaii. I felt安心 because they came to pick me up. At the shop, it was fine because they spoke Japanese, so it felt like Japan. The lesson was fun too.

ハワイで、1人でサーフィン参加しました。お迎えも来ていただきましたので、安心でした。
ショップでは、日本語で、大丈夫だったので日本みたいでした。
レッスンも楽しかったです。

I experienced parasailing at 120 meters! It was incredibly fun, and the moment I was up in the air was the most enjoyable! I want to do it again! Next time, I think I'll go for 150 meters! (laughs) Thank you very much! (*ˆ ˆ*)/

パラセイリング120mを体験しました！
めちゃくちゃ楽しくて、上がってる瞬間が一番楽しかったです！また体験したいです！その時は150mにしようと思います！（笑）
ありがとうございました(*ˆ ˆ*)/

This was my second time parasailing. I had some excitement from my memories of the previous experience, but it exceeded my expectations! At first, I was a bit anxious because the tour details were all in English and I wondered if they would understand Japanese, but both staff members clearly loved Japan, which made the time on the boat enjoyable.

On the way to the parasailing spot, we enjoyed the view of the town (even though we were going really fast), chatting and taking photos, which was also a lot of fun! The staff were very lively, and they even took photos with us.

When we finally arrived and started!!! The height was incredible, scary but fun!!! Being in the air was both frightening and exhilarating!!! The staff had a playful spirit, and just when I thought it was about to end, they surprised us with one more fun experience!

As we were leaving, they kindly shared information about that day's events and the market for the next day. The staff were truly friendly and cheerful.

I would definitely like to request them again when I go parasailing in Hawaii!

Thank you very much.

私自身パラセーリングは2回目でした。
なので、あんな感じこんな感じ、と
記憶しているワクワクがあったのですが、
期待以上それ以上でした！！
最初、送られてきたツアーの内容が
全て英語で、日本語は通じるのかな…と
不安でしたが、スタッフ2名とも日本が
大好きということが伝わってくるくらい
船に乗っている時も楽しかったです。

パラセーリングができるところまでも
街並みを見ながら(といってもすごい
スピードですが)しゃべりしながら
写真を撮りながら、その時も楽しかったです！
とてもノリのいいスタッフさんなので、
一緒に写真を撮ってもらったり^_^

いざ到着してスタート！！！
高さが尋常じゃなく、怖いけど楽しい！！！
空中って怖気持ちいい！！！
スタッフの遊び心もあり、もうすぐ
終わるわってときにまたひとつ
楽しませていただきました！

帰り際にはその日のイベントや
翌日のマーケットの情報を教えて
くれるなど本当に親切で明るい
スタッフさん達でした。

またハワイでパラセーリングを
やるときには是非お願いしたいです^_^

ありがとうございました。

It was absolutely amazing!!! The locals were really good at getting everyone excited, and I was super pumped! The rocking of the boat was seriously intense, but I managed to get through it because it was so much fun! If it weren't for those two locals, I definitely would have been sick... They took a lot of photos and the videos turned out great... I want to go back to Hawaii (;_;)

もう最高！！！現地の人も盛り上げ上手で、むっちゃテンションあがった！船の揺れはまじでやばかったけど、楽しさでなんとか乗り切った！現地の人が、あの二人じゃなかったら確実にゲロゲーロしてたでしょう。。。写真もいっぱい撮ってくれてムービーもいい感じで、、ハワイに戻りたい(;_;)

I think this tour is quite affected by the weather. It was a day with heavy rain and strong winds, to the point where I wondered if such weather even occurs in Hawaii, but the tour went ahead. On the bus ride there, the intensity of the rain had everyone’s spirits low. Such days might be rare, but the water was cold, and the sandbar was submerged and not visible, making me feel like I wanted my money back. Additionally, the hamburgers being prepared on the boat were terrible for the price we paid.

このツアーは天気にかなり左右されると思います。ハワイでもこんな天気があるのかというぐらいに大雨で風の強い日でしたが、ツアーは決行されました。行きのバスの中はあまりの雨の強さに、参加者の皆さんのテンションも低めでした。こんな日は珍しいのかもしれませんが、水も冷たく、サンドバーも水の中に沈んで見えず、お金を返して欲しい気分になりました。またハンバーガーも船内で作っていてこの値段でこの食事？というぐらいに酷いものでした。

It was disappointing that we couldn't see the beautiful scenery due to the cloudy weather during the rainy season. However, we did see sea turtles!! After snorkeling, when we returned to the boat, it started to rain and it got cold, so it might be a good idea to have about two bath towels when the weather is bad. The guide was very cheerful, which was great.

雨季の為曇で良い景色というのがみられず残念。
でも、海亀はみれました！！
シュノーケルした後船に戻ったあと雨が降り出して寒くて凍えましたので、天気悪いときはバスタオル2枚くらいあった方がよいかも。
ガイドの方がとても明るくてよかったです。

I went to Hawaii for the first time on a company trip. Since it was a special trip to Hawaii, I wanted to try some marine sports, so I experienced surfing for the first time as well.

会社の社員旅行で初ハワイへいってきました。
とはいっても、せっかくのハワイ旅行ですのでなにかマリンスポーツをやってみたくて、これまた初サーフィンを体験いたしました。

Last year, I came to meet dolphins for the first time and was moved to see a pod of dozens of them. When I decided to go to Hawaii this year, I immediately thought I absolutely wanted to go again and planned my schedule accordingly for the day.

The weather was great, the sea was calm, and we all expressed our gratitude to the ocean as the boat headed to Makua Beach, where we spotted dolphins jumping in the distance! Following our guide, we entered the water, and dozens of dolphins came to greet us. Among them were baby dolphins, and although I felt a bit torn not to stress them out, we moved on to the next beach for snorkeling, paddleboarding, kayaking, and enjoying the slide and trampoline.

For lunch, the captain grilled hamburgers on the boat, which were delicious. After enjoying a leisurely meal, our guide Saki introduced everyone again, and we all danced together. Even on the way back to the harbor, the staff entertained us with ukulele and hula, which I found impressive. Everyone enjoyed the tour with smiles and without getting bored.

It seems that swimming with dolphins is becoming more challenging, and I hope it continues in the future. I want to participate again next time, and I hope to capture the expressions of the dolphins.

昨年、初めてイルカに会いに来て、数十頭の群れに会えた感動を、今年、HAWAIIに行く事をきめた段階で、最初に今年も絶対に行きたいと思いスケジュールを組み、当日を迎えました。

天気も上々、海は凪、海への感謝をみんなで唱えボートは、マクアビーチへ、遠くでジャンプしているイルカを発見！！
ガイドさんに続いて海へ、数十頭のイルカが会いにきてくれました。
中には、こどものイルカも、ストレスをかけないように、後ろ髪ひかれながらも次のビーチで、シュノーケリング、パドルボート、カヤック、すべり台にトランポリンとそれぞれに楽しみ
ランチは、キャプテンが船上で焼いてくれたハンバーガーに舌鼓
のんびり食事を楽しんだあとは、

ガイドのSAKIさんが、改めて紹介しながらゲストのみんなも一緒にダンスをしたり、
港に戻る間もスタッフが、ウクレレやフラで楽しませてくれるサービス精神は感心しました。
みんな飽きることなく笑顔でツアーを楽しでいました。

イルカと泳ぐことが、厳しくなっている現実があるようで、なんとか今後も続いて欲しいし、
また次回参加したいし、
今度は、イルカの表情を写してみたいと思ってます。

Absolutely amazing! Overall Tour was very well organized and the views breathtaking! Leroy our tour guide was the best!
