We were picked up in front of the Duke Kahanamoku statue at Waikiki Beach at 9 AM and arrived at the port, just past Ala Moana, in about 30 minutes. We waited for about 45 minutes for the previous tour to finish. While I thought about how time flows in Hawaii, the kids enjoyed watching the fish at the bottom of the port in the different water compared to Japan, and my wife had fun chatting in broken English with a woman in her twenties from New Zealand who was on the same tour.
After a fun wait, a cruiser that can hold about ten people arrived, and we boarded with some anxiety for our first parasailing experience. As we headed out to sea, preparing for about 15 minutes (putting on the harness and life jackets), it suddenly began. Suspended from the parachute at the end of the rope connected to the boat, we were lifted over 100 meters into the air, and from below, we looked like tiny dots.
Once we were up in the air, the feeling was incredible, surrounded by the deep blue sea and the bright blue sky. Depending on the situation, we were sometimes higher than small airplanes or helicopters, so if you're not good with heights, you might want to skip this. For those who are not comfortable, the slight swaying in the wind can be quite terrifying, so motion sickness medication is a must.
We were in the air for about 5 to 10 minutes, splashed down onto the water briefly, and then went back up into the sky before landing on the boat. The crew consisted of two people: the captain and a supporter, who spoke some broken Japanese and made the experience enjoyable. They were very considerate and gentle, especially towards small children and women.
My son said this was "the most fun" part of our trip, and we would definitely like to participate again if we come back to Oahu.
朝9時にワイキキビーチのデュークカハナモク像前からピックアップしてもらい、アラモアナを少し過ぎた港へ約30分で到着。
そこで前のツアーが終わるのを45分くらい待ったでしょうか、これがハワイ時間の流れ方かと思いつつも、子供たちは日本と違う住んだ水で港の底にいる魚たちを見て楽しみ、妻は片言の英語でツアーが一緒になったニュージーランドの20代女性と会話を楽しんでました。
楽しく待ち時間をすごしたのちに10名程が乗れるクルーザーが到着、初めてのパラセイリングに不安も感じながら乗船。
青い海に白い波を立てながら15分ほどパラセイリングの準備(ワイヤーやライフジャケット着用)をしながら沖に出たところで、突然はじまります。
船に繋がれたロープ先のパラシュートに吊るされて100m以上の上空へ、下から見てると豆粒くらいになります。
上空にあがると気分は最高、真っ青の空と眼下の深青の海に囲まれ絶景です。
遠くに小型飛行機やヘリコプターより場合によっては高くなるので高いのが苦手な人はやめた方がいいかもしれません、苦手な人だと少し風で揺れる事もあるので恐怖以外の何物でもないと思われます、酔い止めは必須です。
5分~10分程上空にいて、一度海面にちゃぷんと着水してもう一度空へ、それから船の上に着地します。
クルーはキャプテンとサポーターの2名です、片言の日本語で色々はなして盛り上げてくれ楽しい時間をすごせました。
小さい子供や女性にも優しく、気遣いも非常に紳士です。
今回の旅行で「一番楽しかった」と息子の感想です、またオアフに来たらぜひ参加したいと思います。

On the second day in Hawaii, we chose a submarine as our first activity. We boarded the boat from the pier, looking forward to the blue sea, and headed to the transfer point for the submarine. The captain and other crew members walked around the boat, allowing us to take photos freely. We were lucky to encounter a sea turtle along the way.
However, the view of the sea from inside the submarine wasn't very clear, and perhaps due to bad timing, we could only see fish from a distance, which was a bit different from what we had expected. There were many participants from Europe and America, and the atmosphere was lively thanks to the English guide, but it seemed that those who didn't understand English felt a bit left out. I wished there had been a bit more entertainment value. The staff didn't speak Japanese, but they were all cheerful and very nice.
ハワイについて二日目、最初のアクティビティとして潜水艦を選択。
青い海に期待して桟橋から船に乗り込み、潜水艦との乗り換え地点まで行きます。
キャプテンや他のクルーが船内を回り、カメラ撮影を気軽にしてくれます。
途中でウミガメに出会えたのがラッキーでした。
潜水艦の中から見る海は、あまり透明感を感じず、タイミングが悪かったのか魚も遠目に見えただけで少し期待とは異なっていました。
艦内は欧米からの参加者も多く英語ガイドによって盛り上がっていましたが、英語がわからない人たちは少し取り残された感があったように思えます。
もう少しエンターテイメント感があったらいいのになと感じました。
スタッフは日本語を話せませんが、みなさん明るくいい方ばっかりでした。

We participated as a family of three: my husband, daughter, and two grandmothers. We chose this tour because I wanted to show my grandmother, who can't swim, the underwater world, and I also wanted to show my daughter the fish in the ocean from a submarine.
The guide was in English, so I couldn't understand much, but there were translated guide messages in various languages coming through the headphones inside the submarine, which was quite educational.
Since I have no experience diving, it was refreshing to see the sunken ships and planes that serve as homes for the fish.
It was nice to take a boat out to sea and then board the submarine; it felt like a bit of a bonus to be able to enjoy both experiences.
I thought it was a little cold inside the submarine.
夫婦+娘+祖母2名での参加でした。
泳ぐことが出来ない祖母に海中を見せたくて,また,娘に潜水艦で海の中の魚を見せたくてこのツアーを選びました。
ガイドが英語だったので全然わからなかったですが,艦内のヘッドフォンからは各国語に訳されたガイドメッセージが流れていたので色々と勉強になりました。
海に潜る経験がないので,廃船や廃飛行機が魚の住処として沈められているのを見ることができたのは新鮮でした。
船で沖合に出てそこから潜水艦に乗船できるのも,船にも乗れて少しお得な気分になりました。
艦内少し寒かったように思います。

We were picked up at the hotel at 7 AM and traveled by large bus to the pier. I was worried about the heavy rain in the mountains along the way, but fortunately, by the time we boarded the boat, the rain had stopped. It was cloudy, but the sun started to shine, which was great. As I had researched beforehand, the water was about knee-deep, and we couldn't see the sandbar. The snorkeling experience was serious, and the staff provided thorough instructions while we wore life jackets. The corals and fish were beautiful, but if the weather had been a bit better, they might have looked even more stunning. The experience is quite dependent on the weather. We opted for a morning-only tour, and that was sufficient.
朝の7時にホテルピックアップで大型バスで船着き場まで移動。途中山中では大雨でどうなることかと心配しましたが幸い船に乗る頃には雨が止んでいて曇ってはいたものの日が射してきたので良かったです。事前に調べていた通り膝下くらいまで水が浸かりサンドバーは見れなかったです。シュノーケリングは本格的でライフジャケット着用でスタッフがきっちり教えてくれます。珊瑚や魚もキレイに見えましたがもう少し天気が良かったらもっとキレイに見えたのかも。天気にかなり左右されます。午前中だけのツアーにしましたがそれで十分でした。

If you sign up as a pair, it seems you can get photos for free, so we were able to capture our surfing moments.
At the end, you can give a tip (it's not mandatory), so I think it's good to have a little money on hand.

They will come to pick you up at the hotel on time.
We went out to sea with a group of ten on a motorboat.
If you let them know about the photos ($30) before your turn, it will go smoothly.
I was relieved that I could leave my belongings (change of clothes, phone, wallet, etc.) on the boat while flying. However, I recommend bringing only the essentials. For the flight, it's best to wear a swimsuit and a T-shirt, and go barefoot. The instructions are in English, so I didn't understand everything, but it was fine. (I think it's better to be prepared to get wet.)
I wore sunglasses while flying, and it was fine. If you're not afraid of heights, I definitely recommend it.
時間とおりにホテルに迎えに来てくれます。
船(モーターボート)で10人のグループで沖に出ました。
写真(30ドル)は順番が来るまでに伝えとくと、スムーズに行きます。
手荷物(着替え、携帯、財布類等)は、飛んでいる間、船に置いておけるので安心しました。但し、必要最低限のものを持っていくことをお勧めします。飛ぶときの格好は水着にTシャツ、裸足で、説明は英語なのでわからなかったが、大丈夫です。(濡れる覚悟で参加した方がよろしいと思います。)

We enjoyed cruising from Kailua to the area near the sandbar on a catamaran. Although we didn't land on the sandbar, we had fun snorkeling and enjoyed free drinks and a barbecue (hamburgers) on board, which I liked. The boat was chartered for the number of reservations, and this time we set off with two boats. There happened to be many Japanese people, so one boat was filled to capacity with Japanese passengers. The languages spoken were English and Japanese. I wasn't sure if there were other languages, but the tourists were definitely from various countries. Everyone became friendly, taking photos together. The contrast between the steep mountains unique to Hawaii and the emerald-colored sea of the sandbar was beautiful, and I almost forgot to look for sea turtles, but the crew was quick to point them out. It was beautiful, pleasant, and fun. The leisurely afternoon course included only the cruise and snorkeling, with no exploration of Kailua town, but I was satisfied. I participated with my mother and child, wearing a tunic and hoodie over our swimsuits, and brought a beach towel, float, and sunscreen. They provided snorkeling sets and life jackets.

Since we couldn't swim with the dolphins, the cost performance was not great.

For those who want to experience the sandbar, which is often featured on television, I recommend it because the time is only in the morning and the price is reasonable. There were many participants, with two buses and two boats operating.
Before heading to the sandbar, we looked for sea turtles. We were able to see about five or six, but they only come up for air briefly, making it difficult to take photos. After seeing the turtles, we went to the sandbar.
On the day we went, the water was up to our knees, and there were some complaints. It seems that the relaxing setup with chairs, as seen on TV, is quite rare. After the photo session at the sandbar (the staff takes the pictures), we went snorkeling.
We walked to the point where the sandbar suddenly gets deep, which took about 5 to 10 minutes. I got stung by a jellyfish during that time. The staff had warned us to be careful. The jellyfish were small, so it was quite difficult to spot them if you weren't paying attention.
A tip to avoid getting stung by jellyfish: don't walk at the front! I was at the front and got stung. It hurts quite a bit; it's a prickly pain, and since jellyfish tentacles are long, the pain can be quite widespread. After being stung, it turns into a small bump, and the mark lasts for a few days. For children, it might be a bit challenging as they might scratch it. Please be careful.
Since many people participate in snorkeling, the water can be murky and visibility is poor. The staff was feeding the fish with bread to attract them. After the activity, they ask for tips, but it’s not mandatory, so quite a few people didn’t give any. The staff were cheerful and had a good vibe.
テレビでもよく取り上げられるサンドバーに一度は行ってみたい人には、時間も午前中だけだし、値段も手頃なのでオススメです。
多数の参加者で、バス2台、舟2隻の運行でした。
サンドバーに行く前に海がめを探します。5~6匹は見れましたが、息継ぎする瞬間だけ頭を上げるので、写真に残すのは難しいです。カメを見た後にサンドバーに行きます。
私たちが行った日は、海水は膝上ぐらいで、クレームを言っている人も居ました。テレビで見たような、椅子を出してくつろげるような状態は、めったに無いそうです。
サンドバーで写真撮影タイム(スタッフの人が撮ってくれます)が終わったら、シュノーケリングです。
シュノーケリングはサンドバーの急に深くなるポイントまで歩きます。5~10分程度です。
私はその時にくらげに刺されました。スタッフの人も注意を促してましたが。小さいクラゲですので、よほど注意していないと見つけるのは困難です。
クラゲに刺されないコツ! 先頭を歩かない!先頭を泳がない!私は先頭を歩いていて刺されました。
さされると、結構痛いですね。チクチクした痛みですが、クラゲの足が長いので、結構広範囲に痛いです。さされた後は小さいイボになり、数日は後が残ります。子供だと掻いてしまったり、少し大変かも知れません。お気をつけ下さい。
シュノーケリングはたくさんの人が参加するので。濁っていてよく見えません。スタッフの人がパン?を与えて魚を寄せていました。
終わったらチップをお願いされます。強要はされないので、入れない人も結構いました。
スタッフの方は明るくてよい感じでした。

I participated with my daughter. It was both of our first time snorkeling, but our guide, Kamio, kindly taught us how to put on the equipment, breathing techniques, and how to use the fins. He even held my hand as I was nervous about swimming, which allowed us to enjoy the experience with peace of mind. We saw many beautiful fish; it felt like a dream, as if we were in an aquarium. We also got to see a honu (sea turtle). I am truly grateful to Kamio for his thoughtful care that eased our worries. I have visited Hawaii many times, but this experience was unlike any other. I highly recommend it.
娘と二人で参加。二人ともシュノーケルは初めてでしたが、ガイドのカミオさんが丁寧に器具の装着から呼吸法、ひれの使い方など教えてくださり、泳ぎも不安だった私の手をひいて下さったので安心して楽しむことができました。きれいな魚の数々、水族館の中にいるような夢のような時間でした。ホヌにも会えました。不安のないよう気配りしてくださりカミオさんには心から感謝しています。ハワイは何度も訪れていますが、今までにない感動をおぼえました。おすすめです。
