ハナウマ湾シュノーケリング　ベテラン日本語ガイドがご案内する少人数制ツアー　貸切プランあり＜半日＞

It was a beautiful sea! 綺麗な海でした！

Reviewed by: まーちん

It was amazing to swim with so many fish. I rented a wetsuit, which I hadn't planned to do initially, but it turned out to be the right decision because the water temperature was lower than I expected, and it protected me from the coral and underwater rocks. I wasn't confident in my swimming skills, but the suit provided buoyancy, allowing me to snorkel with ease. Guides Dan and Chieko took us to points where we could see a lot of fish. They also took many photos before, during, and after snorkeling, which I really appreciated. They arranged transportation to the hotel and made the reservation for entry to Hanauma Bay, making it easy to participate. Throughout the experience, they were very attentive, allowing me to enjoy the tour comfortably and happily. I would love to join again if I have the opportunity!

たくさんの魚と一緒に泳ぐことができて最高でした。当初借りる予定のなかったウェットスーツをレンタルしましたが、水温が思ったより低かったこととサンゴや水中の岩から身を守れたため、レンタルして正解でした。泳ぎに自信がなかったのですが、スーツ自体に浮力があるので、安心してシュノーケルすることができました。ガイドのダンさんチエコさんが魚のいるポイントまで連れて行ってくれるのでたくさんの魚を見ることができます。シュノーケル前後、シュノーケル中もたくさん写真を撮ってくださり有難かったです。ホテルまでの送迎やハナウマ湾の入場予約もしてくれるので気軽に参加できました。終始、丁寧に対応していただいたので楽しく快適にツアーを楽しむことができました。また機会があれば参加したいです！

ビーチシュノーケリング　波が穏やかな浅瀬のマジックアイランドのラグーンで初心者やお子様でも安心！英語ガイドのサポート付き　写真＆動画無料＜1時間／アラモアナ＞

It's a good practice for a first-time snorkeling experience. シュノーケリング初体験には良い練習です

Reviewed by: poohsaya

I participated in the initial practice for snorkeling because I was anxious about going out to sea the next day. Since it was my first experience with snorkeling, the calm waves made it a great place for beginners. All the instructions were in English. They explained how to put on the gear, how to breathe, and the precautions. After that, we practiced in an area where we couldn't touch the bottom. It was mentioned that there was a locker for valuables, but all participants' belongings were placed in a large box with a lock, which was mostly left open. It's better not to bring valuables.

Since it was the same location as scuba diving, it seemed there were staff members coming and going. There were only park restrooms and an outdoor shower. This time, there were two children and me, along with two Americans in our group. For those who can't swim, the instructor pulls a float, so you can hold on and practice. I highly recommend this for anyone who feels anxious about going straight into the sea.

翌日の海に出てシュノーケリングが不安だったのでの初練習として参加。初体験シュノーケリングなので参加して波が穏やかで、初体験の場所として良かったです。説明は全て英語です。付け方や息の仕方の方法、注意事項を説明その後は足が付かない所でずっと練習、貴重品ロッカーと書いてありましたが、大きな鍵付きの箱の中に参加者全員の荷物を入れる、ほぼ開けっぱなしです。貴重品は持たない方が良いですね。
スキューバダイビングと同じ場所なので入れ違いで誰かスタッフがいるようでした。
公園のトイレと外にシャワーがあるだけです。
今回は子供2人と私、アメリカ人2人のグループでした。泳げない人はインストラクターが浮き具を引いてくれるので捕まって練習してました。
いきなり海に開くのが不安な方にはとてもお勧めです。

It's better to avoid it on days with bad weather. 天候が悪い日はやめた方が良いですね。

Reviewed by: とりさん

Perhaps due to the approaching typhoon, the water clarity was poor, and the waves made it difficult to stay in one place. I felt that it would have been better to choose another day. However, our tour guide Dan was kind and helped my tired wife, for which I am grateful. Despite this, Hanauma Bay still offered many fish, including large and beautiful ones, making the snorkeling worthwhile. Additionally, the life jackets were of the type that you inflate yourself, so as someone who wanted to dive, I was able to snorkel without the hindrance of buoyancy, allowing me to swim joyfully. Next time, if the weather is good, I would like to sign up for the same tour again.

台風接近後であったためか、水の透明度が悪いのと、波もあって落ち着いて定位置にいられない。
これなら、日を改めたほうが良かったと感じた。
ただ、ツアーガイドのダンさんは優しく、疲れたかみさんをフォローしてくれて、感謝です。
ハナウマ湾はそれでも多くの魚と大きくて綺麗な魚が見ることが出来、シュノーケリングの価値はあります。
さらに言うと、ライフジャケットは、自分で空気を入れて膨らますタイプなので、潜りたい自分としては、邪魔な浮力がない状態でシュノーケリングが出来るので、楽しく泳げました。
次回、天候の良いときに機会があれば同じツアーに申し込みたいと思います。

I'm glad I signed up for the tour! ツアー申込みして正解でした！

Reviewed by: Mari

I visited Hanauma Bay for the first time this time. Before making a reservation, I considered going on my own instead of a tour, but I was glad I chose to book a tour.

First of all, Hanauma Bay is reservation-only and very popular, so securing an entry reservation is quite difficult. Additionally, the parking lot is extremely crowded upon arrival, and the guidance is complicated, so if you don't have a decent understanding of English, you might struggle. There are also announcements regarding precautions before entry, but everything is in English, and there is no Japanese guidance, so it can be challenging to understand the content if you're not familiar with English.

By booking a tour, I was able to secure an entry reservation without any issues, and the transportation from the hotel to the site, along with Japanese interpretation and explanations, made the process much smoother. Thanks to the tour allocation, I was able to enter without unnecessary waiting time compared to general visitors.

The snorkeling itself was also very easy because the guides were very experienced and explained everything clearly. (For example, they advised me to unlock my smartphone in advance if I wanted to take photos.) While swimming, there was a guide swimming at the front, and another guide watching carefully from behind. They kept an eye out for participants who seemed to be struggling and would lead us to areas with plenty of fish, so I felt safe participating.

On the day I went, there was some wind and slightly higher waves, so the water was a bit murky, and the visibility didn't seem very high, but I think that's just due to the weather and sea conditions. Even in those conditions, it was enjoyable, so I believe it’s worth going. Even if you don't swim, Hanauma Bay is beautiful just to look at.

In my personal opinion, during the transportation from the hotel to the site, we passed through local areas that are not typically visited on trips, and the local guide provided detailed explanations, allowing me to learn about a side of Hawaii that is not just the tourist spots, which made me happy.

If anyone is considering booking a tour, I would highly recommend it.

今回初めてハナウマ湾を訪れました。
予約前はツアーではなく自力で行くことも検討していましたが、ツアーを申込んで正解でした。
まず、ハナウマ湾は予約制かつとても人気なので入場予約を取ることがそもそも難しいです。
さらに到着後の駐車場は非常に混雑しており、案内も複雑なので英語をそれなりに理解してないと手こずるかと思います。
また入場前に注意事項等の案内がありますがすべて英語で日本語案内などはありませんので、ここも英語に慣れている方でないと内容理解が難しいです。
ツアーを申込むと入場予約を確実に取ることが出来、ホテルから現地までの送迎、日本語での通訳・説明、また入場する際もツアー枠？のおかげか一般の方よりもかなりスムーズに無駄な待ち時間もなく入ることが出来ました。

またシュノーケル自体もガイドの方たちが非常に慣れていて、分かりやすく説明してくださるのでとてもやりやすかったです。
（例えば、スマホを持っていって撮影したいなら事前にロック解除をしといた方がいいですよ、など細かくアドバイスを下さいました）
泳いでる最中も先頭で泳ぐガイドさんの他に後ろできちんと見守ってくださるガイドさんがいらっしゃいます。辛そうにしてる参加者などがいないかしっかり見ていてくださり、魚がたくさんいる場所に手を引いて連れて行ってくれたりしますので安心して参加できます。

私が行った日は風があり波が少し高い日だったので海の中も少し濁っていて、透明度はあまり高くないように感じましたが、それは天候や海の状態なので仕方ないことだと思います。
そんな状態でも楽しかったので行く価値はあると思います。また泳がなくてもハナウマ湾は見てるだけでも美しい海です。

個人的な意見にはなりますが、ホテルから現地までの送迎の際、旅行ではあまり行かないローカルエリアなどを通るのですが、現地ガイドさんがここも細かく説明してくださって観光地としてのハワイではないハワイを知ることが出来たので嬉しかったです。

もしツアー申込みを検討されてる方がいらっしゃればおすすめしたいと思います。

First of all, we passed Hanauma Bay and stopped at the Lanai Lookout, which was an unexpected bonus that I wouldn't have ever seen, being on a work trip with a very brief window to go out on a Sunday. I'm very grateful to him for a joyful trip, the extra stop (thank you!!!!!), and the information he shared en route to Hanauma Bay, about where different creatures may be seen, areas of the bay, types of fish, and even local characters (yes, fish). One of the fish characters (I think a Humuhumu? but I could be wrong) was described as a chihuahua who will pester you if you cross paths, LOL! The bay is simply some of the most beautiful water and fish I've ever snorkeled in the company of. Just incredible. 11/10. Thank you for an amazing experience.

Reviewed by: ぺるる

I chose this tour because it offers pick-up from both Kailua Beach and the town. The shop is just a few minutes' walk from Kailua Beach, so I was able to go back and forth twice and enjoy playing at the beach. The water is shallow, the sand is fine and beautiful, and even for someone like me who isn't a strong swimmer, I felt safe and had a great time in the ocean. The emerald green sea was so beautiful that it took my breath away. I thought I could only rent a beach mat, but I was able to borrow a chair and ended up napping on the sand. The staff who spoke Japanese were always attentive and their consideration was wonderful. I found it a bit confusing when to give tips and how much to give to whom, so it would be helpful if there were some guidelines provided. Next time, I plan to skip the town and go directly to Kailua Beach and Lanikai Beach.

カイルアビーチとタウンと両方送迎してもらえるツアーが良くてこちらに決めました。
カイルアビーチまで徒歩数分のショップなので、2回行き来してビーチで遊べました。遠浅で、砂もさらさらで綺麗で、泳ぎが苦手な私でも、海で安心して楽しめました。エメラルドグリーンの海綺麗すぎて感動です。ビーチマットしか借りられないと思ってましたが、チェアが借りれて砂浜で寝てしまいました。日本語話せるスタッフさんがいつも気にかけてくれて、配慮が素敵でした。
チップを渡すタイミング、どれくらい誰に渡すか分からなくて、目安とか書いてて貰えたら助かるなと思いました。次は、タウンは行かずにカイルアビーチとラニカイビーチまで行ってみようと思います。

Hanauma Bay requires a reservation, and it's quite difficult to get there without a rental car. Additionally, there is a video to watch after entering, so it was definitely the right choice for me to join this tour since I only speak Japanese! I didn't see any sea turtles, but I was able to snorkel a lot. By the way, I participated without renting a wetsuit, just wearing a long-sleeved rash guard, but since I also wore a life jacket, I was able to enjoy it safely.

Hanauma Bay currently requires a reservation to enter, but this tour does not require advance booking, and we were taken there by a guide. The view of Hanauma Bay from above is stunning, and since access is difficult, I was really glad to be taken there on this tour.

I experienced snorkeling separately and rented a wetsuit for $10. The coral might be prettier in Okinawa, but I was very satisfied to see sea turtles and fish. It seems that getting a Hanauma Bay-specific guide's license is currently difficult, so I think being taken there is a rare opportunity. It was great. Thank you very much.

The scenery at Hanauma Bay was different from what I saw over 30 years ago; it has been beautifully maintained, with strict management including entry restrictions and video presentations of the rules. Thanks to this, the underwater environment was very clear, and I was able to see many fish and even a rare eel that is seldom seen, even by guides.

Although it was a super low tide, which meant I couldn't meet a honu, and I struggled with my goggles and taking breaks, resulting in swallowing seawater multiple times, my guide held my hand the whole time, allowing me to fully enjoy snorkeling! Thank you very much for your great support!

The parking lot was quite crowded, but it was understandable since it was the earliest optional tour in the morning.

After watching the orienteering video and stepping outside, we saw a rainbow. The guide during snorkeling was also very good, and we were able to see various fish.

- I was told that they needed to keep up with the adults at the same speed, even though I have small children.
- When I mentioned that my child would be playing in the shallow water, I was told that was not allowed.
- I said that snorkeling was too difficult for my child and that we would stop midway, and I was met with various comments, ultimately being asked in a very intimidating manner, "Do you understand what I'm saying?" It's unimaginable.
- I pointed out that the voucher and the explanation during the outbound trip did not mention that we had to stay with the guide at all times and that if we didn't snorkel, we couldn't play in the shallow water, but their insistence did not change.

・子供には難しいのでシュノーケルを途中でやめておきますと言うと、色々言われ、最終的には「私の言っている事がわかるか？」と非常に威圧的な言葉を言われた。考えられない。
・バウチャーや往路の車中の説明にはガイドと終始行動し、シュノーケルをしない場合は浅瀬でも遊べないとの記載等が無いことを指摘したが強行性は変わらず
・小さな子向けにはおすすめ全くできません

I participated on the last day of our honeymoon, and I had a great time seeing so many fish!

The arrangements were quick, and everything went smoothly, allowing us to enjoy the afternoon as well. If I have the opportunity to go to Hawaii again, I would like to request this again!

I would love to get the photos that Dan took; could you please let me know where they are?

ハネムーン最終日に参加させていただきましたが、とてもたくさんの魚を見ることができ楽しかったです！

段取りも早く、スムーズに終わることが出き、午後も楽しむことができました。
またハワイに行く機会がありましたらお願いしたいと思います！

ダンさんが撮っていた写真を頂きたいのですが、どちらにあるんでしたか教えていただけると嬉しいです。

Even with last-minute reservations, you can feel secure as they confirm everything properly via email and phone. I was a bit anxious about the reception location since there was no sign (as mentioned in the reservation confirmation), but following the map sent with the confirmation helped me find it.

It mentioned to arrive 30 minutes early, but I ended up waiting with nothing to do until the start time, so the purpose of the early arrival was unclear.

The snorkeling experience starts with the instructor properly explaining how to handle the equipment, which is reassuring for beginners. I recommend it for those who want to safely try it out nearby. The water wasn't very clear, though.

直前予約でも、メールと電話できちんと確認されるので安心です。
当日の受付場所は、案内版がなくて（ないと予約確認書に書いてあります）不安でしたが、予約確認書に送られてくる地図に従うとたどり着くことができます。
開始30分前に来るようにと書いてあったのですが、何もすることなく開始時間まで待たされて、30分前集合の意図が不明でした。

シュノーケルは、インストラクターがきちんと器具の扱いを含めて説明をしてくれてから始まるので、初心者には安心です。
近場で安全に、とりあえず試してみたいという方にお勧めします。
海は、あまりクリアではありませんでした。
