This was great. We had never parasailed before so we were a little nervous, but it was fun. The crew was great and friendly. They took the perfect photo of us in the air and an airplane in the background.

During this trip to Hawaii, I was determined to try parasailing, but at first, I was speechless at the actual height. My daughter (21 years old) was thrilled and said she could ride it over and over again. It's safe and incredibly fun!! If I had to mention one thing, be cautious of seasickness. While waiting for all the passengers to finish their experience, you might feel unwell on the swaying boat like a leaf...
今回のハワイでは必ずパラセイリングをと思い望んだものの 実際の高さに最初は声も出ませんでした。一緒に乗った娘(21歳)は何度でも乗れる~と大はしゃぎしてました。安全に遊べて面白さも満点です!!しいて言うなら、船酔いにご注意ですね。乗船者全員が体験し終わるまで、木の葉の様に揺れるボートで待っている間に具合が悪くなるかも・・・。

There are various types of slides, from scary ones to kid-friendly ones, so we were able to play for half a day without getting bored. By the time it was time to pick up, I felt like we could have stayed for another two hours! I plan to go again!
怖いものからキッズ向けのものまでいろいろなスライダー系があって飽きずに半日遊べました。ピックアップの時間になり、あと2時間くらいはあってもいいと思えるほどでした。またいく予定です!

We all had an amazing day snorkeling. the crew were very friendly and went out of their way to make sure everyone had a great time. The reef was brilliant and we would definitely have gone back for a second visit if we had time on this trip.

We had a great time on our parasail trip. The crew was excellent; fun and professional. Highly recommend to anyone who would like to get out in the ocean for some fun!
One thing though, if you have a sensitive stomach, don't forget the motion sickness pills - the water was a bit choppy the morning we went.
Mahalo for the great time!!!

We took the two hour tour around the amazingly beautiful valley. The tour was in a pleasant pace, yet spicet up with some mud and water. We saw scenes from different movies and shows, ex Godzilla and Lost. Worth doing to fully take in the beauty of the valley and experience the old scenes.

I heard about parasailing and thought, "It sounds fun since you go to a high place," so I casually signed up. To be honest, I didn't have high expectations before going. However, once I actually did it, I was amazed! It was incredibly fun!!
Being up so high and having the stunning view of Hawaii stretching to the horizon was exhilarating! I definitely recommend this to anyone who hasn't tried it yet.
However, the boat sways a lot, so seasickness is a must... Don't forget to bring motion sickness medication.
パラセイリングと聞いて「高い所に行くから楽しそうだな~」と気軽に申し込んでみたものの、行く前まではあまり期待大ではなかったのが正直なところです。しかし実際にやってみて感動!めちゃくちゃ楽しいです!!
こんなに高い所に生身で上がれて、かつ景色が抜群にいいハワイが水平線まで見渡せるという状況に興奮しっぱなし!!
これは間違いなくまだやったことない人にはお勧めです。
しかし、船がとても揺れるので、船酔いは必須。。酔い止め薬は忘れずに。

Our experience with Captain Bob's Snorkel Cruise was awesome. The staff was laidback and friendly and made our experience great. They played volleyball on the sandbar with us, cooked us an awesome burger and gave great tips and help to make our snorkle experience the best. Could have done with a little less of Jenner's singing, since he seems to like to "ham it up" a bit too much.
I look forward to my next trip to Oahu so I can do this tour again.

My friends and I had come to Hawaii for Spring Break, and they had literally spent the entire time just sitting on the beach drinking and getting tans. That was cool for about a day or two then I was done! I wanted to DO SOMETHIN!
I heard about this water park and it seemed like something that would be fun to mix it up and get goin!
And It was. It was cool, and fun, and a great change of pace from how bored I was! I liked the fast rides and slides....the little number thing that helped you pick them was cool cuz I chose all the fast and hard ones! yeah!
I say go to this park for sure. Cool.

After staying in Waikiki for the week, my kids were climbing the walls and my wife and I were ready for a change and just needed to get out and spend a day away from the hotel. This was a perfect choice. The free transport from the hotel also really helped to justify the costs for me as the wallet-holder!
The ride there wasn't too long, just under an hour, and when we got there, the kids went nuts! It was go go go all day, and when they got home to the hotel that night, they went straight to bed! I swear, I wanted to go back the next day just for that reason alone! It was a great day and I highly recommend the park, especially for families.

This was a repeat activity for us so obviously we like it before. It is surprisingly peaceful once you are up in the air and the views are spectacular. I like to stick my arms out a la Superman; I figure this is the closest I'll ever get to feeling like I'm flying. The only negative is my wife didn't care for it the last time, so she just went as an observer (rides in the boat but doesn't parasail). She loves the boat ride so that works for her, but the crew doesn't let anyone go up solo so if you don't have a partner, you end up going up with some stranger. The crew is good at what they do and are very safety conscious.

This was the third time we've taken Captain Bob's and for the third time, we had a great time. This has become a "must do" activity for us on every trip. The crew is friendly and helpful - Jenner and Kelly stood out for us - and the lunch was very good. The sandbar is my favorite part of the activity. As long as Captain Bob keeps sailing, we'll continue to climb aboard!

I participated with my husband’s parents and our family of three. Since there were three of us, I thought we would split into two and one, but we were able to ride together as a group of three. My fifth-grade daughter was scared, but it seems she had a lot of fun. The view from high up was amazing, and we were moved to see all of Waikiki. My husband’s parents, who are celebrating their 60th birthday, were also very happy. For $25, we had about 260 photos taken with 2GB of storage. They turned out really well, and I’m glad we bought them. Since it was for five people, I think we got a particularly large number of photos. While we were on the boat, we also encountered a turtle. We were able to see a ray dancing around as well. It was a lot of fun.
主人の両親と家族3人で参加しました。
3人だったので、2人と1人になるのかと思っていましたが3人で一緒に乗らせてもらいました。
5年生の娘は怖がっていましたが、とても楽しかったみたいです。とても高くワイキキが一望出来て感動でした。
還暦の主人のご両親も、すごく喜んでいました。
25ドルで、2GBに写真を260枚ほど撮っていただきました。とてもよく撮れていて、買ってよかったです。
5人分だったので、特に枚数が多かったと思います。
船に乗っているときに、亀にも遭遇しました。
エイもくるくる踊っている所も見ることが出来ました。
とても、楽しかったです。

The water slide was a lot of fun. My 2-year-old loved the kids' slide and went down it dozens of times. My 10-year-old daughter was very happy with the thrilling slides that aren't available in Japan. However, it seemed like it was just the start of summer vacation, and even though we went on a Friday, it was quite crowded, and we had to wait over 40 minutes for some rides. Because of that, we didn't have enough time (><). I would like to go again when it's less crowded. Also, even if you choose a plan without a float, you can borrow one. Everyone was using them freely on-site, and there was nothing written on the wristbands to check.
ウォータースライダーがとても楽しかったです。
2歳の子は、子供用の滑り台が気に入り何十回も滑っていました。10歳の娘は日本にはない迫力のあるスライダーにとても喜びました。しかしちょうど夏休みに入っていたようで、金曜日に行きましたが結構混んでいて40分以上並んだものもありました。。。ですので、時間が全然足りませんでした(><)もう少し、混んでいない時にまた行きたいです。あと浮き輪はついていないプランでも借りられます。現地では、みんなが勝手に使っていました。チェックするところも、リストバンドにも何も書かれていなかったです。

Sunset Dinner Cruise, Cocktails, Dancing.. what a fun night! Let me tell you, seeing a sunset in Hawaii is wonderful but seeing it from the ocean, its like a paint brush painted the skies for the evening. Perfect for that special romantic moment with your loved one!
Unfortunately, I did not see the mystical green flash, but we did see several dolphins and the sunset over the water, magical!
Staff was very attentive and came by my dinner table through out the evening to make sure I was taken care of. Everyone on-board participated in the dancing. Thank you so much for a wonderful Sunset Dinner Cruise!

My family and I went on the Hawaii Dolphin Swim & Snorkel on June 26, 2011 morning swim. It was beyond our expectations. We found dolphins right away and the captain and crew knew exactly where to find them. There were several dolphin pods and we were able to get pretty close to them but not touching them. 3 of them hovered about 5 feet below my wife and I making their squeal and clicking sounds. It was amazing. The snorkel equipment they provided was in good shape and very reliable. The boat was fine with plenty of room to move around and feel safe aboard. The crew was very professional, friendly and entertaining. The food was average but any time you've been in the water for a while, coming out to a hot burger is always delicious. I would highly recommend this trip especially if you want to get in the water. We also had time to freelance snorkel in an area 25 feet deep that had several sea turtles hanging out. They were fabulous to watch swim by you on their way to the surface

This was my second time on Oahu, and the first trip I mostly spent all my time in and around Waikiki. This tour was great in that it got me all the way to the other side of the island for a change of pace.
That side of the island....they called it Kaneohe Bay I think, man, it was beautiful. The water was so clear, and I got to see all kinds of fish I had never seen before too.
I didn't want to spend a ton of money either, and so this was a good deal for the price, as lunch was part of it...and tasted good too! The people were nice and helpful, and the sandbar was probably my favorite part. Good tour.

We seen so many dolphins and we were even fortunate enough to see Bottlenose Dolphins which are much much bigger than the frequent spinner dolphins. Bottlenose Dolphins do not come around the islands very often so this was a real treat, maybe even a once in a lifetime opportunity!!
The crew was very friendly and they held my sister's hand in the water because she is afraid of sea animals. But ONCE she put her mask on and placed her head under the water, it was a whole different world for her filled with beautiful colored fish and a huge reef system that surrounded her.
Wonderful crew, Tasty food, everyone on-board was really friendly and after a nice dip out in the deep blue ocean, you are treated to an open bar. Great Stuff! Thank you Hawaiiactivities.com and Ocean Joy Cruises for a wonderful dolphin watch and cruise!

My husband and I did the hike bike tour with Jeremy and it total exceeded our expectations! Not being olympic athletes, more like weekend warriors, we were a little apprehensive about the hike. It was amazing! He paced it well. He
stopped to let us taste some of the local plants and to point out the rare foliage in the rainforest. Our return hike included a rare trail through the dense bamboo forest. Absolutely amazing!! Finishing the day was a relaxing down hill bike ride with some of the most amazing views of the island. Would recommend this activity highly! Oh by the way, wear old hiking shoes/sneakers it is very muddy in the forest.

The dolphins were really smart and cute with high IQs.
This time, due to the strong yen, I participated in the most expensive course. It was a fun activity filled with smiles, allowing me to interact directly with the dolphins in a way that I probably couldn't experience in Japan.
I used a limited-time coupon from alan1 to get a DVD with the photos I purchased, so I was able to bring home both memories and a video souvenir, which made me very satisfied.
イルカさんはIQが高く本当に利口でかわいかったです。
今回は円高でもあり一番高いコースに参加しました。
日本では恐らく体験できないほどイルカさんと直接触れあうことができ楽しく笑顔溢れるアクティビティでした。
写真購入でDVDをGETできるalan1さんの期間限定クーポンを利用させてもらい思い出と映像のお土産ともに持ち帰ることができ満足です。

It was fun and felt like a resort, but since six groups were boarding, we were swaying for over an hour, and the seasickness was intense. Almost everyone got sick. Moreover, we were the sixth group out of six, and when we took off, I felt nauseous and nervous, so my condition was at its worst.
However, once we actually took off, it felt really good, and there was absolutely no fear, so my boyfriend, who has a fear of heights, seemed to enjoy it. But whether we actually flew to the specified height, I couldn't tell at all from a layman's perspective! (laughs)
At the end, we bought the photos taken by the instructor, but they didn't give us our change back. Even though we gave a tip separately...
リゾート気分で楽しいのですが、
6組が乗り込むので1時間以上揺られるため、
船酔いが半端ないです。
ほとんど全員が酔ってました。
しかも私達は6組中の6番目で、
飛ぶときには気持ち悪さと緊張で、
もうコンディションは最悪でした。
ただ実際に飛んでみるととても気持ちよく、
