Yummy food and beautiful Hawaii views out your boat window! Can't go wrong

We chose Oahu for Pearl Harbor and the park did not dissapoint

A great day away from Waikiki and into the wilderness- with 4 boys this was a fun one!

Boys were up and on the boards in n time! Thank you crew for all you do!

faced our fears and ended up being one of our best experiences! my boys loved the thrill of being right next to the sharks

Do this tour- you get to see the entire farm in different ways! and lunch was easy to feed our larger family too!

This was the highlight of our trip! Esp seeing the dolphins spalshing around!!

Qr code has it easier to skip the line on the way in!

I participated with my fifth-grade son.

I felt reassured because the guide was a Japanese woman. There was also a local staff member who spoke a little Japanese, and they were very kind. You could easily recognize them by their tall stature and distinctive hat.

On the way from the port to the sandbar, we enjoyed drinks and donuts while listening to the relaxed singing of a musician.

Once we arrived at the sandbar, we could do stand-up paddleboarding, kayaking, and snorkeling, and the local staff kindly taught us how to use the equipment. I could speak a little English, but even those who couldn't speak it were treated with care through gestures, so there was no need to worry. I think you can also do banana boat rides if you make a reservation, but since my child is small, we didn't do that this time.

On the way to the sandbar, a young boy in elementary school became unwell and collapsed, but the Japanese female staff responded appropriately, and there was also a nurse among the guests, so the boy recovered without any issues.

The staff's response and the activities were excellent!

As advice for those who will participate, I think it's a good idea to prepare a change of clothes, including underwear, because it can get quite cold after coming out of the sea while still in wet swimsuits.

There was a hot water tank (for drinking water) near where we could get drinks, and I was grateful to have warm water to drink since I was feeling cold. (*^_^*)

小学5年生の息子と母で参加しました。

案内役の方が日本人女性だったので不安はありませんでした。現地のスタッフの中に片言で日本語を話してくれる方が居てとても親切でした。背が高く特徴のある帽子を被って居たのですぐに分かると思います。

港からサンドバーまではドリンクとドーナツのサービス、そしてミュージシャンのゆったりした歌声を聴きながらの移動でした。

サンドバーにつくとサップ、カヤック、シュノーケリングが出来るのですが、現地スタッフがとても親切に乗り方などを教えてくれました。私は少し英語を話せましたが、話せない方でも身振り手振りで丁寧に接して下さるので心配ありません。バナナボートも予約を入れれば出来るのだと思いますが、子供が小さいのもあり我が家は今回入れませんでした。

サンドバーに向かう時、小学生の男の子が具合が悪くなり倒れてしまいましたが、その時も日本人女性のスタッフが適切に対応されていて、お客さんの中に看護師さんも居たので男の子も回復し事なきを得ました。

スタッフの対応とアクティビティの内容についてははなまるでしたよ！

これから参加する方へのアドバイスとしては海から上がった後、濡れた水着のままだと結構冷えるので、下着を含めた着替えを1セット用意しておくと安心だと思います。

ドリンクをもらえるところの側にお湯が出るタンク（飲料水用）があって、私は体が冷えてしんどかったので温かいお湯が飲めたのは有り難かったです(*^_^*)

I was with my child, but I didn't have any worries at all. It was nice to take it slow while diving, and I was glad that we could handle the changes in pressure.

子供と一緒でしたが、何も心配入りませんでした。ゆっくりセンスイしていくので、気圧の変化にも対応できて良かったです

Not only Japanese people, but also foreigners participated, and there were staff members who could speak Japanese, so I was able to enjoy the snorkeling experience with peace of mind.

日本人だけでなく、外国の方も参加されていましたが、日本語を話せるスタッフもいたので、安心してシュノーケリングの体験をすることができました。

I had ordered and paid for a life jacket in advance, but I couldn't rent it on the day of my visit... I couldn't understand the English, and when I arrived and tried to communicate, the bus had already left (crying). The sea was very clear, and I could see the fish.

ライフジャケットを事前に注文、支払いしていましたが、当日レンタルできませんでした…。英語の理解が及ばず、到着して伝えようとしたらもうバスが行ってしまっていました(泣)海はとても透明で魚も見れました。

The meeting place was easy to find. However, there was a bench at the meeting spot, but it was hot without any shade.

Onboard, they were friendly and talked to us. We were the only Japanese people, but they kept us laughing the whole time.

When heading out to sea, the waves were strong, so those who are prone to seasickness might want to take some motion sickness medication in advance.

We also requested paid photography, and it was very good since we had a small child with us! I recommend it.

As for the height, even my 7-year-old child was able to enjoy it safely! I will participate again next year!

集合場所はすぐに分かりました。ただ、集合場所はベンチがありましたが、陰がなく暑かったです。

船内でもフレンドリーに話しかけてくれて、日本人は私達だけでしたが終始笑わせてくれました。

沖に出る際は波が強く、酔いやすい方は事前に酔い止めなどを飲まれた方が良いかもしれません。

有料の撮影もお願いしましたが、小さな子連れだった為、とても良かったです！おすすめします。

高さですが、7歳の小さな子供も安心して楽しめました！
また来年も参加させて頂きます！

Super fun. Lovely ship. Friendly crew. Yummy food. Beautiful dance show. Just do it!

I experienced a set of three activities: parasailing, banana boat, and bumper tube. For parasailing, I opted to go higher, which was also my first experience, and it was incredibly fun. There were Japanese staff members, and many of the staff could communicate easily, so I felt comfortable enjoying the activities.

Unlike in Japan, the facilities don't have showers, but it wasn't an issue as long as I could change and dry off before my Uber arrived.

For reference, it cost about $28 from Sheraton Waikiki to the destination.

パラセーリング、バナナボート、バンパチューブのの３点セットを体験しました。
パラセーリングはオプションで高さを上げてもらいました。それも初めての体験でしたが最高に楽しかったです。
日本人スタッフの方もいますし、簡単なコミュニケーション取れるスタッフさんが多かったので安心して楽しめました。

日本のように施設にシャワーがあるわけではないのですが帰りのUber来るまでに着替えや帰るまでに乾いてしまえば問題ない感じです。

参考までにシェラトン・ワイキキから目的地まで２８ドル位でした。

From beginning to end my family and I had a great experience. We kayak, snorkeled and my children played volleyball. We had so much fun would definitely do it again.

I really wanted to try it, even though it was expensive, so I paid for three people and went for the experience. On the day, there was no wind and the waves were calm, but we managed to ride the waves three times. It was my first time going out to the waters off Waikiki, and it was truly beautiful! Since we didn't have enough people, three guys joined us on the canoe. They were part of the beach service staff, and it seemed like it was their first time on a canoe as well, but we all had fun following the instructor's guidance together. When we went out to sea, the instructor suddenly signaled us to jump into the water, which was a lot of fun! I'm really glad I participated!

どうしても、やってみたくて高く付くけど3人分支払い体験して来ました。当日は、風も無く波は穏やかでしたが3回波に乗れました。初めてワイキキの沖の方まで行きましたが本当に綺麗！人数も足りないので3人のGUY達も一緒に乗ってくれました。ビーチサービスのバイト君たちで彼らもカヌーは初めてだったようで師匠の指示に一緒に従いながら楽しめました。沖に行くと師匠の合図でいきなり海へ飛び込んだりと楽しませてくれました♪参加して良かったです！

It was a day with cloudy skies, but with occasional glimpses of sunshine.

I participated in the Dolphin Encounter, and interacting with the dolphins was a great experience; my 6-year-old son seemed to enjoy it as well. However, the temperature and water temperature weren't very high, and towards the end, it started to get a bit chilly. This is really dependent on the weather, so I haven't included it in my evaluation.

Since it was my first time interacting with dolphins and I had never done it in Japan, I can't compare experiences, but honestly, I think Japanese aquariums and similar places are better in other aspects after the experience.

The area isn't very large, so you have to wait quite a bit until it's time to leave.

Personally, my satisfaction level relative to the price was a bit low, which is why I gave this rating.

晴れ間がたまに見れる曇り空の１日でした。

ドルフィンエンカウンターに参加し、イルカとの触れ合い自体は良い体験で、6歳の息子も楽しそうでした。
ただ、やはり気温も水温もそれほど高くなく、最後の方はちょっと寒くなりかけてました。
こればかりは天候次第なので、評価の良し悪しには含めてません。

イルカとの触れ合いは初めてで日本でもしたことが無かったので経験値の比較は出来ませんが、体験後のそれ以外は正直日本の水族館等の方が良いかなと思います。

敷地も全然広く無いので、帰りの時間までまあまあ待ちます。

個人的には値段に対しての満足度はちょっと低かったので、この評価です。

This couple is very bright, charming, and wonderful, and they guide together. They know everything about Hanauma Bay, making entry very smooth. They are aware of where the fish are and where sea turtles might come, so we were able to see many colorful fish. When I went before, I only had transportation and went on my own, so I couldn't visit many fish spots, but this time I had a lot of fun. When you're on your own, you can get swept away or feel anxious, but even if you get separated, they stay close and guide you, which gives you a sense of security. We swam from one end of the bay to the other. Even in August, the sea is a bit cold, so I borrowed a wetsuit to avoid getting hurt by the coral. It was great that I could rent one on the spot without a reservation. I think this tour will satisfy both small children and adults. Since it's an early morning tour, we returned to the hotel around 10:30, allowing us to spend the day meaningfully. I highly recommend it!

ご夫妻２人でガイドをされているとっても明るくてチャーミングで素敵なご夫妻です。ハナウマ湾の事を知り尽くしているため入場するのもとてもスムーズです。お魚がいる場所やウミガメが来そうな場所も把握されているため沢山のカラフルな魚を見る事が出来ました。以前行った時は送迎のみで個人で行ったためあまり魚のいる場所に行けませんでしたが今回はとても楽しめました。個人だと流されてしまったり不安がありますが、はぐれてしまっても前後についていてくれるため、こっちだよーと引っ張ってくれて安心感が違います。湾の端から端まで泳ぎました。8月でも少し海が冷たいため、そして珊瑚で怪我をしないためウエットスーツを借りました。予約しなくてもその場で借りることができ良かったです。小さなお子さんも大人も大満足のツアーだと思います。朝早いためホテルに10時半くらいに戻って来ますので一日を有意義に過ごせます。おすすめです！

This was a great experience! Alot of activities for families to do. You can go snorkeling, kayaking, paddle boarding or just relax on the sandbar. All the equipment was provided. The staff was super helpful and friendly. We would definitely do this again.

After an hour's ride on the shuttle bus from Waikiki, we boarded a boat from a quiet harbor, away from the hustle and bustle of Waikiki. However, perhaps due to the recent typhoon, the weather was unfortunately rainy, and the child who joined us immediately wanted to go home as soon as we got off the bus and were hit by a sudden downpour.

Despite the weather, as we received donuts and approached the sandbar with the cheerful staff's live performance, the weather improved a bit. By the time we enjoyed two hours of snorkeling, stand-up paddleboarding, and sea kayaking, the child was having a great time, creating fun memories. The sea was a bit high tide, which was a mix-up with the tides, but it was still great to enjoy the water activities. I would like to try again during low tide when the weather is nice.

Lastly, I left something on the return shuttle bus, but thanks to the kind response from the local company and the driver, it was returned to me the same day. I'm grateful.

It was a different experience compared to other seas.

ワイキキから1時間送迎バスにゆられ、ワイキキの喧騒から離れ静かな港まちから船に乗りました。
しかし、先日接近した台風の影響なのか、生憎の雨まじりのお天気、一緒に参加した子供は、バスを降りた途端のスコール的な雨で、もう帰りたいと言い出す始末。
そんな中の船出でしたが、ドーナツをもらって、陽気なスタッフの生演奏とともにサンドバーに近づいていくと、お天気も少し回復。
シュノーケリングにSUPにシーカヤックに2時間満喫する頃には、子供もおおはしゃぎの楽しい思い出になりました。
海は満潮と干潮を間違えて、やや満潮気味でしたが、それはそれで海のアクティビティを満喫できてよかったです。次はお天気のよい干潮時に挑戦してみたいです。

最後に、帰りの送迎バスに忘れ物をしてしまったのですが、現地の会社とドライバーの親切な対応でその日のうちに戻ってきました。感謝

他の海とはまた違った体験でした。

I did a lot of research before experiencing this, and it was just so much fun! It said sandals were not allowed, so I went out of my way to get sneakers on-site, but there were some people in sandals. It was recommended to have a mask or bandana, and I received a bandana with the name of Kualoa Ranch on it! Everyone was provided with helmets and goggles to wear. Since it really is a two-hour ride, make sure to use the restroom beforehand. It mentioned that children from 5 years old can ride, but I think you can have them sit in the middle of the second row with a secure seatbelt and hold them during the ride. However, since you can't go to the restroom and can't turn back, it's better to think carefully about it. At one point, it started to rain, which made it even more enjoyable, splashing through puddles and speeding down steep hills. An elderly couple couldn't keep up, and the staff had to switch drivers.

体験するにあたり色々と調べて行きましたが、とにかく楽しかった！サンダル不可とあり、わざわざスニーカーを現地で調達しましたがサンダルの方もいました。マスクやバンダナがあると良いとありましたが、クアロアランチの名前入りのバンダナをいただきました！全員ヘルメットとゴーグルを貸していただき装着。本当に2時間走るので先にトイレを済ませておく事。確か5歳〜乗車可能とありましたが、2列目の席の真ん中に座らせてしっかりとシートベルトをし、走行中は押さえててあげれば乗れると思いますがトイレに行けないのと引き返せないので慎重に考えた方が良いですね。途中、雨が降って来てより楽しさが増して、水溜まりに突っ込んだり急な下り坂を飛ばしてみたり。年配ののご夫婦が付いて来れずスタッフの方が運転を交代していました。

We participated with four adults. We boarded the safari bus and set off. The wild drive lasted just over an hour and was exhilarating!
Along the way, we got off at breathtaking viewpoints, passed through some nerve-wracking cliff edges, and even did a bit of mountain climbing. It might be wise to be cautious if you're wearing sandals.
Also, once you set off, there are no restrooms in the mountains!

大人4人で参加。サファリバスに乗って出発しました。1時間強のワイルドドライブ、気分爽快でした！
途中絶景ポイントで下車したり、ヒヤヒヤ崖っぷちを通ったり、ちょっとした山登りもあります。サンダル履きは気をつけたほうがいいかもです。
あと、出発したら山中にはトイレがありません！

Had a great time.
Everyone was very friendly and polite. Great environment. Can’t wait to go back again with more family. Live music was also really good!!!

We experienced a 150m flight for three people.

I think you'll easily find the hut mentioned in the instructions as the meeting point.

Once you arrive, you'll be smoothly guided from there.

After boarding, place your shoes and belongings under the boat seats. After putting on the gear, we headed out about 5 to 10 minutes offshore, and then each group started one by one. Once each person is attached to the parachute with a carabiner, they are released without any signal. (laughs)

You can bring your smartphone or GoPro at your own risk. I held my smartphone tightly to avoid dropping it while taking pictures. It's generally stable, but be cautious as it can suddenly sway depending on the wind and the boat's movement.

It was a clear day, so it was the best 10 minutes. We could see the Waikiki skyline, Diamond Head, and the ocean all at once. My 6-year-old son was thrilled the entire time. It was an amazing experience.

It's obvious, but I think the outcome depends on the weather.

Additionally, the staff will take photos from the boat, and after the experience, you can download all the photos (about 150 to 200, depending on the group) to your smartphone and receive them on an SD card for $40. They will let you check the photos on a tablet before you purchase.

家族3人150mを体験しました。

集合場所は説明に書いてある小屋がすぐ見つかると思います。

着けばあとはスムーズに案内されます。

乗り込んだら履物、持ち物をボートの椅子の下に置きます。
装具をつけ5〜10分弱位沖合に出た所で、1組ずつスタート。
1人1人カラビナでパラシュートに取り付けられたら、合図もなく放たれます。笑

スマホやGoPro等は自己責任で持って行く事が可能。
私はスマホを直に持ち落とさないようにしっかり握って撮影しました。
基本的には安定してますが、風やボートの動き次第で突然揺れたりするので、ご注意を。

当日は快晴だったので、最高の10分間でした。
ワイキキのビル群もダイヤモンドヘッドも海も全て見渡せました。
6歳の息子も終始大興奮。最高の体験になりました。

当たり前の話ですが、結果は天気次第だと思います。

また、別途写真はボートからスタッフが撮影してくれて、終わった後に$40払えば全ての写真（約150〜200枚位、グループによって異なる）をスマホにダウンロード&SDカードで貰えます。購入前にタブレットで確認させてくれます。

I participated in Dolphin Aloha. I was able to touch the dolphins, which was a first experience for me. Such interactions are not something you can usually experience, so my child was very happy. The park isn't very large, but we enjoyed feeding the little birds and the sea lions throughout the day. Since we left at 2:00 PM, it was just right to do some shopping in Waikiki afterward.

ドルフィンアロハに参加しました。イルカを触らしてもらえ、初の体験でした。こんなふれあいは普段体験できないので、子供がとても喜んでいました。パークはそれほど大きくないですが、小鳥への餌やりや、アシカの餌付けなど１日楽しめました。帰りは14:00だったので、パーク後はワイキキでショッピングできたのでちょうどよかったです。

It was my first experience with marine sports!
We participated as a family of four.
They speak Japanese! I was able to participate with peace of mind!
We joined the three-activity course of parasailing, jet skiing, and banana boat!
The parasailing was at a height that even someone like me, who is not good with heights, could enjoy! The view of beautiful Hawaii was amazing and so much fun!
I was able to enjoy jet skiing even without a license!
They provide driving instructions in Japanese English! My 18-year-old daughter also seemed to have a great time driving!
The instructor for the banana boat was very skilled and made it a lot of fun! It was super enjoyable! The thrill was just right!

For all activities, goggles are a must! Saltwater splashes a lot, so you need sunglasses or goggles that won't fall off! Rentals are available for $10 each!
If saltwater gets in your eyes, it stings a lot and you can't see.
But really, everything was so much fun!

There are no changing lockers, so I was told by the staff to change in the restroom! I changed there.
If I could be a bit selfish, it would have been perfect if there were changing lockers!

マリンスポーツ初体験でした！
家族4人での参加でした
日本語通じます！安心して参加できました!
パラセーリングと水上バイクとバナナボートの３種コースで参加しました！
パラセーリングは元々高所が苦手な私でも楽しめる高さでした！素敵なハワイの景色を一望できてとても楽しかった！
水上バイクは免許がなくても楽しめました！
ちゃんと運転の説明も日本語イングリッシュで説明してくれます!18の娘も楽しそうに運転してました！
バナナボートはインストラクターさんがとても上手な運転で楽しませてくれます！めっちゃ楽しかった！スリリングさもちょうど良き!

全てのアクティビティにおいて、ゴーグルは必須！目に塩水めっちゃ掛かるので落ちないサングラスまたはゴーグル必要！レンタルもありで、一人10ドル!
塩水目に入ったらめっちゃ染みて前が見えない
でもでもでも！ほんとに全部とても楽しかった!

着替えロッカーはないのでトイレで着替えて！とスタッフさんに告げられ、トイレできがえました。
わがままいうなら、着替えロッカーあったら文句なしだったな〜

The staff on board are friendly, but to be honest, their treatment of guests is quite careless. I guess this is typical for Americans, but they rush around the ship, stepping on guests' feet and roughly pulling guests' bodies while preparing for parasailing—actions that would be considered rude in Japan. On the day of our trip, the sea was rough, and many people suffered from seasickness. If there were a service that provided a "seasickness warning" based on the weather forecast in advance, it would help many guests.

船内のスタッフはフレンドリーなのだけど、客扱いがハッキリ言って雑。アメリカ人だからこんなモンなのだろうけど、船内をバタバタ動いて客の足を踏んだり、パラセイリングの準備する際に力任せに客の体を引っ張ったり、日本では失礼に当たる行為を平気でやります。当日は海が荒れて、船酔い者が続出でした。天気予報を見て、事前に「船酔い警報」でも通知してくれるサービスがあれば救われるお客さんも増えるでしょう。

【Overview】
Since it was an English tour, I was the only Japanese participant, but there were no difficult explanations, and I could understand to some extent through gestures. They brought water without me having to ask, and they were considerate since I was alone. There were many families from various countries, so I think families can participate without feeling too pressured.

【Sea Turtles】
There were many tour boats around, so it was necessary to keep an eye on my tour instructor. It was possible to get out early if I got tired. It felt like a lot of people crowded around the spots where the sea turtles were, but it was easy to confirm where the turtles were since you could see where the people were.

The sea turtles floated and sank freely, and I could watch them. However, touching them is prohibited, and the instructor repeatedly reminded us of this, so as long as we followed that rule, it was a comfortable tour.

【概要】
英語ツアーなので日本人は自分1人でしたが、難しい解説はなく、身振り手振りである程度理解できます。お水も言わずとも持ってきてくれたり、1人なので気を遣ってくださいました。いろんな国からの家族連れが多かったので、家族で参加するならあまり気負わずに参加出来ると思います。

【ウミガメ】
周りにもたくさんのツアーの船が多く、自分のツアーのインストラクターさんを見失わないようにする必要はあります。疲れて途中で上がるのは可能でした。
ウミガメがいるスポットに大勢押しかけて見る感じでしたが、人がいる所がウミガメのいる所と分かるので、確認はしやすいです。

ウミガメは自由に浮いたり沈んだりして、それを眺めたりできました。ただし、触るのは禁止なのでインストラクターさんが繰り返し伝えてくれるので、それさえ守れば快適なツアーです。

It was a great experience to view the war from a perspective outside of my own country. After making a reservation, a QR code ticket was sent via email, so it was smooth to enter when I printed it out just in case.

The plan does not include admission tickets to the Arizona Memorial, so you need to book those on the website yourself. Reservations for available slots can be made at 3 PM the day before, but they were filled within five minutes. When I made a standby reservation on-site just after 8 AM on the day of my visit, I was able to participate with hardly any wait. If you’re already at Pearl Harbor, I highly recommend visiting the Arizona Memorial as well.

You can't bring most bags due to security, but you can bring items in a clear bag. I thought it might be difficult if the bag was too large, so I brought one that could fit a 500ml plastic bottle horizontally.

自国の立場以外から戦争を見る良い体験になりました。
予約後メールにてQRのついた予約票が送られてくるので念のため印刷しておくと入場時スムーズでした。

プランにはアリゾナ記念館の入場チケットはついていないため自分でサイトで取る必要があります。
前日15時に空き枠の予約ができますが5分後には埋まってしまっていました。
当日朝8時すぎに現地待機予約をしたところほとんど待たずに参加できました。
せっかく真珠湾まだ来たのであれば、ぜひアリゾナ記念館も訪れたほうがよいです。


荷物はセキリュティ上ほとんど持ち込めませんが、
透明なカバンに入れると持ち込みできます。
あまり大きいともしかしたら難しいかもと思い、500mlのペットボトルが横に入るくらいのもので持ち込みました。
