Oahu
Had a great time with Hawaiian Parasail. Pick up driver was full of information and enjoyable. Captain and first hand made the event so incredible and both were so helpful. The actual ride in the sky was a rush but so calm and beautiful! This was my second time and I would do it again in a hawaiian minute!
This is definitely an activity you must do when staying in Hawaii for the first time. If you don't go, you'll be missing out. Unfortunately, I experienced bad weather partway through, but the guide was very friendly, and it turned out to be a wonderful experience. I highly recommend everyone to go!
とりあえず、ハワイに初めて滞在したら必ず行かなきゃいけないアクティビティです。
行かない方は損です。
私はあいにく途中から悪天候でしたが、ガイドさんも凄く気さくな方で、素晴らしい経験になりました。
皆様是非行かれてください
It's expensive. If you make a reservation on-site, it will only cost $99. Also, Hilton guests can view the model room for free. I'm very satisfied with the experience!
高いです。
現地で予約、したら99ドルで済みます。
また、ヒルトン滞在者が現地のモデルルーム見学すれば無料で見られます。
内容は大満足ですよ!
I participated on February 24, 2016. I applied the night before as a long shot, and in the morning, I received an OK email ^o^
The driver spoke in English like a machine gun, but I couldn't understand at all; ^_^A However, it was clear that he was doing his best to guide us.
There were four groups on the boat, including us, and we were the only Japanese. We exchanged iPhones and took turns taking pictures.
I also bought an SD card. It had about 100 pictures, including the scenery. It was great.
For the 150M, it seemed we were at the same height as the others at first, and we were saying things like, "This is easy!" But then the altitude increased, and it got quite scary. But it felt good! The weather was nice, so we could see very beautiful scenery.
I was very satisfied ^o^
By the way, you need to tip both the captain of the board and the driver.
2016.02.24に参加しました。ダメ元で前日の夜に申し込んら、朝OKのメールが来ました^o^
送迎の運転手さんはなにやら英語で機関銃のように話してましたがさっぱりわからず;^_^Aでも一生懸命ガイドしてるのは伝わりました。
乗ったボートは私たち含めて4組で、日本人は私たちだけでしたが、iPhoneを交換してかわりばんこで写真を撮りました。
SDカードも買いました。景色も含めて100枚位入ってました。良かったです。
150Mは私達だけで、最初は他のひと達と同じ高さだったみたいで『余裕だねー』なんて言ってたら途中から高度が上がり、けっこう怖かったです。でも気持ち良かった!天気も良かったのでとても綺麗な景色が見れました。
とても満足しました^o^
ちなみにボードのキャプテンと送迎の運転手さんにそれぞれチップが必要です。
We had so much fun! The crew was great and the ride was fantastic. Be warned, if you get "dipped", shut your mouth - the water is very salty.
I could see a bit of the tail in the distance, but it was disappointing that I couldn't see it well. (I was hoping to see it up close!) As for the tour, the meals were of sufficient quantity, and while they weren't particularly delicious, they were average, so I was generally satisfied.
遠くに尾びれが少し見えましたが、良く見えなくて残念でした。(もっと近くで見えるのか?!と期待していたのですが...)
ツアーとしては、食事も十分な量,質も特に美味しい!という訳では無いですが普通なので、概ね満足でした。
Thank you very much for boarding with us. We are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed your experience. We sincerely look forward to welcoming you aboard again when you visit Hawaii.
この度は、ご乗船頂きまして誠にありがとうございます。楽しめて頂けたご様子で、私どもも大変嬉しく思っております。また、ハワイにお越しの際には、ご乗船頂けます様、スタッフ一同心よりお待ち申し上げます。
BAILEY AND TOMO WERE WONDERFUL GUIDES AND IT WAS SO SPECIAL TO BE ABLE TO SNORKEL A PRIVATE LOCATION. IF YOU'RE THINKING ABOUT IT YOU HAVE TO GO!
Aloha Kelly,
Thank you so much for the positive feedback. It means more to us than you know. And I really appreciate it. I am so glad you came out with us and had a great experience. I appreciate that there is so much to do while in Hawaii, you have so many choices, and when you choose to spend a day with us, that really means a lot to us. And it makes me very happy to hear that you had a fun time and a great experience with us. That's what we strive for with every tour and every guest. And I know I speak for Bailey and Tomo when I say that, and when I say thank you so much for that, and please come back and see us again. Mahalo nui loa!

We participated in a tour for our honeymoon! Our impression is that we are very satisfied! The staff were friendly and we had a really fun time! The hamburgers we ate on the boat were exceptional! When I asked the staff to take pictures with my phone, they took many photos from various angles and poses, and we were able to keep a lot of beautiful pictures! It became an unforgettable memory for both of us! Thank you very much!
ハネムーンでツアーに参加させていただきました!感想はとても満足です(^^)/スタッフのみなさんもフランクでとても楽しい時間でした~!船の上で食べるハンバーガーは格別ですね♪♪
スタッフさんに携帯で写メを頼んだら色んな角度やポーズで何枚も撮っていただき綺麗な写真が沢山残せました~!夫婦共に忘れられない思い出になりました!ありがとうございました!
I've been diving all over the world for the past 15 years and this is by far one of my favorites. Beautiful water with greater than 50 feet of visibility. Saw seven sea turtles up close and it was just a spectacular experience. Make sure to rent the fins from the beach, worth it. Crew was knowledgeable, friendly and just all around awesome. So was the house special drink. This is a not to missed experience with a company that makes it unforgettable. They will absolutely see me again.
I was looking forward to the sandbar, but the weather was cloudy and there was strong wind, making the sea very cold. It would be a good idea to bring extra beach towels for when you come out of the water. There were many participants, and we could choose between a boat with only Japanese people or a mixed boat with foreigners! We chose to ride with the foreigners, so we were able to enjoy English conversation with the family sitting next to us. It was great that we could also see the sea turtles.
楽しみにしていたサンドバーですが、天候は曇りで強風の為海は非常に寒かったです。
海から上がってきた時のバスタオルなども多めに用意しておいた方が良さそうです。
参加者が多く日本人だけの船と外国人と混合の船が選べました!私達は外国人の方々と乗る船を選んだ為、隣に座った御家族と英会話も楽しみながら乗ることが出来ました。
ホヌも見ることが出来たので良かったです。
We were lucky enough to see whales jumping out of water many times. Crew members were professional. They gave clear and accurate instructions on directions to which whales were just coming up to surface. Besides whale watch, the cruise trip itself was awesome. We had the opportunity to enjoy the beautiful coastline of Oahu.
Dillon and Chris were the greatest. Words can't express how awesome they made our outting exciting and fun!!
In October, the seawater in Hawaii was indeed cold, and it was windy and chilly, but we were able to see sea turtles, which made the family very happy.
10月のハワイの海水は、さずがにつめいたく、風があり寒かったが、ウミガメを見れて、家族が喜んでいました。
We did some other snorkelling while in Hawaii and were quite disappointed. We were so glad we booked this trip to do some more. We were taken out to some deeper water and as soon as we jumped off the boat we saw multiple turtles! It was amazing. I have never seen turtles this big and so many in one spot. We spent about an hour snorkelling and then went on a sail out in the sun. The boat is quite spacious and room for groups to keep to themselves or sit with others. The staff were all very helpful and fun to have a chat to. I would definitely go out with these guys again if we return to Hawaii.
Transportation was completely hassle-free, allowing for a worry-free experience. During the cruise, the wind was incredibly strong, so women should pay attention to their clothing. I saw whales! Thank you for the amazing experience.
送迎などはまったく問題なく安心して参加できます。クルーズ中は風がものすごく強いので女性は服装に注意。クジラ見れました!感動体験をありがとうございました。
Thank you very much for participating in our cruise. We are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed the whale watching. Also, thank you for sharing the wonderful photos. All of our staff are looking forward to your next visit.

This cruise was great! Mostly because of the crew. They were friendly and knowledgeable. They watched out for your safety. The boat itself is very sturdy. There is an inside cutout that you can sit in, out of the weather if need be. I took my elderly family and they did great!!!
Saw lots of fish and sea turtles! The guides were very informative.
I applied for the sandbar tour knowing that the tide conditions weren't great. The weather was bad, so it was just a shallow area. I could only see the sea turtles' heads popping up for air from a distance, and I couldn't tell if they were turtles or something else. The snorkeling was also disappointing due to the cloudy sky, which affected visibility. Since time was limited, I couldn't enjoy it. This time, there were two boats, but because there were many Japanese participants, we were forced to separate into groups of Japanese and others, which created a situation where only Japanese people were present, and that was unfortunate.
サンドバーは、潮目もあまり良くないのは承知で申し込みました。
天気が悪かったので、ただの浅瀬でした。
ウミガメは、遠くから、息継ぎで頭が出るのが見える程度。カメなのか何なのか分かりませんでした。
シュノーケリングも、曇り空だったので、透明度も悪くイマイチ。時間も限られていたので、楽しめませんでした。
今回、ボート2艘でしたが、日本人参加者が多かったこともあり、強制的に、日本人とその他の国で分けられ、日本人しかいない状況を作られたのも残念でした。
I went in February, but it seemed that the air conditioning on the bus from the meeting point to the port couldn't be turned off, so it was really cold. A jacket is a must!! It's definitely better to use the restroom before you go.
We departed from the port by boat. First up was turtle watching! There were more than I expected. I think it was about 15 minutes, and we saw around 10 turtles!
Then we arrived at the sandbar. It was beautiful, as expected!! Everyone got off to the beach and took photos freely. The staff were great and took lots of pictures for us. Since it was cold in February, a rash guard or similar jacket is necessary!
Next was snorkeling. I thought I wouldn't like using a snorkel set that others had used, but it was clean as it had been soaked in chlorinated water! After listening to the staff's explanation, we all set off together. There were a lot of participants, so you had to be careful not to bump into the person in front of you. If you moved slowly, you might bump into the person behind you. But we saw beautiful fish! After one round, snorkeling was over.
When we returned to the boat, each person was rinsed with fresh water to easily wash off the saltwater. Then sandwiches and juice were served. They were quite tasty.
And then we got back on the cold bus to return, and that was the end!
Overall, it was a satisfying experience.
2月に行きましたが、集合場所から港までのバスの冷房が止められないらしく、とっても寒かったです。上着は必須です!!行く前には絶対にトイレに行っておいた方が良いです。
港から船で出発。まずはウミガメウォッチング!思った以上にいます。15分程度だったと思いますが、10匹くらいは見れました!
そして、サンドバーに到着。やっぱりきれい!!それぞれ砂浜に降りて、自由に写真を撮ったり。良いスタッフさんでバシバシ写真撮ってくれます。2月だと寒いので、ラッシュガードなどの上着が必要です!
次にシュノーケリング。人が使ったシュノーケルセットは嫌だと思っていましたが、塩素の入った水に漬けられていてきれいでした!スタッフさんの説明を聞いて、みんなで出発。参加者がたくさんいて、気をつけないと前の人にぶつかる。とろとろしてると後ろの人にぶつかる。でも、きれいな魚見れましたよ!1往復したらシュノーケリング終了。
船に戻ると、一人ひとり真水を頭からかけてくれて塩水を簡単にすすげます。それからサンドイッチとジュースが出されます。普通においしかったです。
で、また寒いバスに乗って帰って終了!
とにかく、満足いくものでした。
The Bishop Museum was amazing! I finally got to visit a place I had wanted to go to for a long time. I learned hula dancing, toured the facility, and felt like I was learning about Hawaii's roots. The kumu was kind, and it was a fulfilling day.
ビショップミュージアムサイコーかねてより行きたかったところでやっと実現しました フラダンスを習って施設見学をしてハワイのルーツを学んだ様な気持ちクムも優しく充実した1日でした
The long-awaited sandbar! It was really beautiful, although it was disappointing that the water was up to my knees at high tide and I couldn't see the sandy beach. The guide was also a fun person, which made it enjoyable.
The light snack was a simple sandwich made with ham and cheese in bread.
I made some wonderful memories.
念願のサンドバー!
満潮で膝くらいまで水があって砂浜がみれなかったのが残念でしたが本当に綺麗でした。ガイドさんも面白いかたで楽しかったです。
軽食はサンドイッチで食パンにハムとチーズがはさんである簡易なものでした。
楽しい思い出ができました。
Had an awesome time on the Hilton Hawaiian Village Sunset Cocktail Sail! Josh, Masa and Brad were a very professional, helpful and knowledgeable staff. Can't wait to come back next year to do this again!
Crew was great. Really nice activity right on Waikiki beach. Wish they offered fines to snorkel with. Hard to swim in ocean with out them.
It was comfortable without any rocking on the large ship. I was lucky to see whales. I also enjoyed the views of Diamond Head and Waikiki, making it a great cruise experience.
大きな船で揺れる事もなく快適でした。くじらを見る事ができてラッキーでした。ダイヤモンドヘッドやワイキキの景色も見られて、クルーズとしても楽しめました。
Thank you very much for participating in our cruise. We are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed the whales. Please come back to see the whales again. All of our staff are looking forward to welcoming you.

This was my first time participating.
It was very beautiful and moving!
The hamburger for lunch was also delicious.
However, it was quite cold due to the strong wind, so a jacket is a must.
If I have the chance, I definitely want to go again!
Thank you for taking so many photos!
今回初めて参加しました。

ただ、風が強かったので、結構寒かったです。上着は必須です。

Never done this before and was kinda nervous. The guys were very professional and made this activity very fun! If I return to Hawaii this will be something I'm doing again!
I've been to Hawaii nearly 20 times, but it was my first time coming in January, so it was my first whale watching experience! Although it said "pickup available," adding the pickup increased the price, so I took The Bus. Ideally, I should have gotten off at the corner of Nimitz Highway on routes 19 or 20, but since those buses were taking a while to arrive, I ended up taking an E bus and got off at the corner of Alakahi Road. At that point, I was about 10 minutes late for the 8:00 AM meeting time, and in a panic, I walked another 10 minutes to arrive, only to find that many people were still checking in (the boat's departure time was 8:45 AM).
Once the boat departed, I had breakfast, and as soon as I went out on deck, we spotted a whale! It showed its belly and splashed down dramatically! After that, we saw two more whales that stayed close to us, and on our way back, we spotted another whale on the Waikiki Beach side. The weather was nice, the sea was calm, and most importantly, I was very satisfied to see the whales.
20回近く来たハワイだが、1月に来たのは初めてだったので、初のホエールウォッチング!
「<送迎あり>」と書いてあるけれども送迎をつけると料金が増すので、The Busで行き、本当は19番20番でニミッツハイウェイの角で降りればよいのだが、19番20番がなかなか来ないので、来たEかなんかに乗ってしまい、アラカイロードの角で下車。その時点で集合時刻とされた8時を10分ぐらい過ぎていたが、大焦りでさらに10分ほど歩いて到着してみると、まだたくさんの人が受付をしているところだった。(船の出航時刻は8時45分。)
船が出発し、朝ごはんを食べ、甲板に出るとすぐにクジラ発見!おなかを見せてダイナミックにバッサーン!その後も別な2頭のクジラがつかず離れずいて、折り返して戻る途中にもワイキキビーチ側にまた別なクジラを発見。天気も良く海は凪いで、なによりクジラが見られたので大満足。
Thank you very much for joining our cruise. We are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed your first whale watching cruise and were able to see active whales. All of our staff look forward to welcoming you again.

This was my first dolphin tour in Hawaii. I really wanted to swim with dolphins, so I somewhat forcefully invited my friend to join me. The sea was rough, and there were concerns about departure, but thanks to the decision to go ahead, we were able to encounter dolphins and swim with them, which I am truly grateful and moved by. My friend seemed to have a great time as well, saying, "I want to go again. I can't wait to see the staff!" We also had a lot of fun with SUP and snorkeling. Next time I go to Hawaii, I hope to have graduated from graduate school by then (laughs).
ハワイでは初めてのイルカツアーでした。イルカとどうしても泳ぎたいということで友達を半ば強引に誘っての参加。海が荒れていて、出航が危ぶまれましたが、出航を決めていただいたお陰でイルカに無事に遭遇し泳ぐことができ、本当に感謝また感激でした。友達も相当楽しかったようで、「また行きたい。スタッフの皆さんに早く会いたいと言ってます。」またSUPやシュノーケリングもとっても楽しかったです。次回ハワイに行った時は大学院まで卒業したいなと思っています(笑)
Thank you for participating this time! I'm glad we were able to set sail safely! Please consider the Dolphin High School/Manta University on the Big Island for next time! Mahalo!
この度はご参加頂きありがとうございました!無事出港出来て良かったです!次回はハワイ島のイルカ高等学校/マンタ大学もご検討下さいね!Mahalo!
Capt and crew were anazing. They were very personable and made a great relaxing sail. Food was not too heavy but enough to keep you going. Drinks were strong and delicious, overall amazing sail. Most people were either looking to go back out on the snorkeling trip or had come from it earlier in the day. That good of a sail.
The entertainment was nice, food was good. We enjoyed the fireworks show
