カイルアビーチ送迎シャトルサービス 嬉しい5時間滞在!ビーチグッズなど各種レンタル付き<日本語スタッフ/ランチ付>
I was disappointed that I couldn't see the turtles.
魚。亀を見る事が出来なかったのが残念
Activity Date: 2016/06/10 | Posted on: 2016/06/25

I read the reviews and thought, "This is it!" so I decided to participate. Just like the reviews mentioned, I rented a bike and first went to Kailua town to order pancakes to-go from Boots & Kimo's. During the 30-minute wait, I went to buy some Lanikai soap, then returned to the shop to have lunch with pizza and took a boogie board to the beach. After that, I went back to the shop, grabbed a snorkeling set, and rode my bike to Lanikai Beach. However, traveling with just two women, the boogie board was heavy, and even though I put on the snorkeling gear at Lanikai, I couldn't make it to the rocky areas and didn't get to see any fish. I regretted not just going to the middle of Lanikai Beach instead, so I give it four stars.

I was in a hurry, so I forgot to put on sunscreen when going to town, and I ended up with a bad t-shirt tan (-_-;)

口コミを見て、これだ!を思い参加しましたが、口コミと同じ様に自転車を借り、まずカイルアの街へ行きブーツアンドキモスのパンケーキをテイクアウトで注文し、30分の待ち時間にラニカイの石鹸を買いに行き、ショップに戻ってランチのピザと、ブギーボードを持ってビーチに行って、その後ショップに戻って、シュノーケルセットを持って自転車でラニカイビーチに行きました。。。。が、女二人の旅では、ブギーボードは重く、ラニカイでシュノーケルのを着けるも岩場までは行く事も出来ず、魚を見る事は出来ませんでした。シュノーケルは諦めて、ラニカイビーチの中央あたりまで行けば良かったと後悔が残りましたので、星4つです。
慌てていたので、街に行く時に日焼け止めを塗り忘れてしまい、しっかりTシャツ焼けしてしまいました(-_-;)

Enjoying Kailua to the fullest!
カイルアを楽しみ尽くす!
Activity Date: 2016/06/20 | Posted on: 2016/06/25

This was my first trip to Hawaii. I learned that Kailua Beach and Lanikai Beach have been chosen as the number one beautiful beach in the United States, and I really wanted to go there. However, it was quite a distance from Waikiki where I was staying, so I used this tour. Since it was my first time in Hawaii, I decided not to rent a car or use THE BUS, and I was glad I chose this tour, which took care of the round-trip transportation!

I was able to rent a bike on-site for a fee, so I quickly rented one and headed to Kailua Beach first. The waves were higher than I expected, and the water seemed a bit murky, so I soon made my way to Lanikai Beach! The distance from Kailua to Lanikai was greater than I thought, so having a bike was definitely a plus.

Lanikai Beach had almost no waves, and the water was incredibly clear and beautiful! When I put on the snorkel I rented and went into the water... there were so many cute little fish! It was actually my first time snorkeling, but the calm, shallow water made it easy to enjoy.

After snorkeling, I got hungry, so I rode my bike to Kailua Town! I used a lunch ticket to go to a salad shop. I thought I would be having a salad, but it turned out to be a hearty sandwich. It was delicious, though!

Feeling satisfied, I then headed to Whole Foods Market! I bought granola bars and bulk granola with fruit for breakfast the next day. For those who want to be active, having a bike is definitely recommended!

今回、初めてのハワイ旅行でした。
カイルアビーチ・ラニカイビーチが全米ナンバーワンに選ばれた事のある美しいビーチだと知って、是非行きたいと思ったのですが、宿泊しているワイキキからは結構距離があり、こちらのツアーを利用しました。
初めてのハワイという事で、レンタカーやTHE BUSの利用はせず、往復の交通への心配がないこちらのツアーにして良かったです!
現地で有料で自転車を借りられるということで、迷わず借り、まずはカイルアビーチへ。思ったより波が高くて少し海が濁っているように感じたので、程なくしてラニカイビーチへ!
カイルアからラニカイへは、思ったより距離があったので自転車があって良かったです。
ラニカイビーチは波がほとんど無くて、その分透明度が高くて本当に綺麗‼︎ お借りしたシュノーケルをつけて海に潜ったら…可愛らしいお魚がたくさん‼︎
実は初めてのシュノーケルだったのですが、浅くて波のない穏やかな海だったので安心して楽しめました。
シュノーケルを楽しんだ後は、お腹が減ってきたので自転車でカイルアタウンへ!ランチチケットを利用してサラダのお店へ行きました。てっきりサラダを食べられると思っていたら、ヴォリューム満点のサンドイッチでした。笑 でも、美味しかったです。
お腹も満たされたので、今度はWhole Foods Marketへ!翌日の朝食用にグラノーラバーで、量り売りのグラノーラとフルーツを買いました。
アクティブに動きたい人には、自転車があった方が断然オススメです。

First snorkeling experience.
初めてのシュノーケリング
Activity Date: 2016/05/12 | Posted on: 2016/06/06

I experienced snorkeling for the first time at Hanauma Bay. While there are cheaper tours available, I was glad I opted for a guided tour. The ocean was beautiful, the weather was great, and I was taken out further, which made for a wonderful experience. It seemed to be a rare day, but I was able to encounter many turtles, making it a precious day.

I would love to participate again.

今回初めてのシュノーケリングをハナウマベイで体験しました。
安いツアーもありますが、ガイド付きツアーを申し込んで正解でした。
海も綺麗、天気も良く、沖の方まで連れて行ってもらい、良い体験ができました。
その日は珍しいみたいですが、多くの亀さんに遭遇することができ貴重な1日になりました。

また参加したいと思います。

Aloha! I'm really glad to hear that you enjoyed it. Also, I was very happy to receive your kind words saying, "It was the right choice to book the guided tour." Thank you! During our tour, when the sea conditions are good, we swim out further, which increases the chances of encountering turtles.

I'm glad you got to see many Honu! We will continue to work hard so that people keep saying that a guided tour with Hanauma is different from the rest.

Please come join our tour again when you visit Hawaii. We look forward to seeing you. Thank you! Mahalo!!

Aloha!楽しんでいただけたようで本当に良かったです。それと『ガイド付きツアーを申し込んで正解でした。』とのお褒めのお言葉をいただき、私もDanもとても嬉しかったです。ありがとうございます。私達のツアーでは海の状態が良い時には沖の方まで泳ぎに行きますので、亀との遭遇率もアップします。
多くのHonuに会えてよかったですね!
やっぱりハナウマ公認ガイド付きは他と違うね!と言われ続けられるように、これからも頑張ります。
是非またハワイにお越しの際には私達のツアーに来てくださいね。お待ちしています。ありがとうございました。Mahalo!!

Seclusion in the ocean.
Activity Date: 2016/05/27 | Posted on: 2016/05/28

I borrowed a bike and rode south to the farthest part of the beach. It was secluded from everyone which made time more enjoyable. Less noise, more ocean. I snorkeled most of the day and relaxed. Again, very enjoyable.
However, the business and its employees is different story. They were wonderful, helpful, attentive, whatever other synonym out there that reflects on how a business should be.

We went on a 5-night, 7-day trip to Hawaii for our honeymoon, and the day we used the service was the third day of our entire itinerary. I had previously done snorkeling in Okinawa and its islands, so I was really looking forward to it.

However, due to the extremely low tide during a big tide, the population density was very high, there were few entry points, and the variety of marine life we could see was somewhat limited, so I apologize for my somewhat harsh evaluation, but I will say I was "satisfied."

That said, the hospitality of the two staff members was wonderful, and I would definitely recommend this to anyone wanting to enjoy marine leisure with family or friends. When we visited, we were paired with a couple from America and a Japanese family (three generations), and everyone seemed to be having a great time.

Next time, I would like to visit when the tide conditions are better! Thank you very much for your service!

ハネムーンで5泊7日でハワイ旅行に行き、利用させて頂いた当日は全行程の3日目でした。
以前に沖縄本島や離島でシュノーケリングをしたことがあり、非常に楽しみにしていました。
当日は大潮?のド干潮で人口密度が非常に高かったこと、エントリー出来るところが少なかったこと、見れた生き物の種類がやや少なかったため評価が辛めで申し訳ないですが『満足』とさせて頂きました。
ただ、スタッフお二方のホスピタリティは素晴らしく、家族や友達とマリンレジャーを楽しみたい方には是非おすすめしたいです。お邪魔した際はアメリカから来たご夫妻と日本人のご家族(3世代)と組合せでしたが、皆さんとても楽しそうでした
次回は潮まわりが良いときに伺ってみたいです!
どうもお世話になりました!

Thank you for joining our tour. On this day, we experienced a low tide where the coral reef was exposed, which meant we couldn't swim over the reef, causing people to gather in the deeper sandy areas. I apologize for that. However, I believe the visibility is better during low tide, so it was easier to see the fish. Please consider trying the introductory diving experience at Hanauma Bay next time. If the sea conditions are good during diving, we can go beyond the white buoy to the open water, which means there won't be a high density of people, and you can enjoy Hanauma Bay even more. I look forward to seeing you again. Thank you. Mahalo!!

この度は私達のツアーに来ていただき、ありがとうございます。この日はサンゴ礁が海面から出ているくらいの引き潮に当たり、サンゴ礁の上を泳ぐことができないために砂地の深め所に人が集まってしまうんですね。ごめんなさいね。でも引き潮の時の方が透明度は良いですからお魚は見やすかったかと思います。是非次回はハナウマベイでの体験ダイビングにも挑戦してみてください。ダイビングでは海の状態が良ければ、白ブイを超えて沖の方まで行きますので人口密度も高くないですし、もっともっとハナウマ湾を楽しんでいただけるかと思います。またお会いできるのを楽しみにしております。ありがとうございました。Mahalo!!

Breathtaking beach
絶景ビーチ
Activity Date: 2016/05/02 | Posted on: 2016/05/07

Kailua Beach and Lanikai Beach are both stunning beaches.
Hotel → Shuttle bus → Shop for beach guidance and snorkeling rental → About a 5-minute walk to the beach.
The staff provides thorough explanations.

Kailua Beach
It's a beach where just lying on the sand feels great.
Coral is only found in some areas.
Since there are waves, boogie boarding is recommended.
I saw some people kite surfing.

Lanikai Beach
It's about a 10-minute walk from Kailua Beach, with a slight uphill.
You access the beach through a residential alley from the road where cars drive.
The two islands are impressive, making it a beach with a fantastic view.

The pizza for lunch is huge.
Fins can be rented for an additional fee.

カイルアビーチとラニカイビーチ、ともに絶景のビーチです。
ホテル→バスで送迎→ショップでビーチの案内・シュノーケルレンタル→ビーチまで5分くらい徒歩
スタッフの方が丁寧に説明してくれます。

カイルアビーチ
砂浜に寝転がっているだけで気持ちがいいビーチです。
珊瑚があるのは一部の場所のみです。
波があるので、ブギーボードがおすすめです。
カイトサーフィンをしている方がいました。

ラニカイビーチ
カイルアビーチから10分くらいで歩いて行けます。少し坂道あります。
車が走る道路から、住宅の路地を抜けてビーチへ。
2つの島が印象的で、眺めて最高のビーチです。

昼食のピザは巨大です。
フィンは別料金で借りられます。

Awesome First Time Experience
Activity Date: 2016/04/11 | Posted on: 2016/05/05

This was my first time snorkeling, as well as, my first time in Hawaii. I'm usually not the type to enjoy activities with a high volume of people around, especially with the location being a huge tourist attraction, but the experience was so cool! My reservation was on a Monday morning. Total there were 12 people in the group, including the two very friendly and helpful instructors.
Everyone is provided with a life vest, fins, bottled water, chips and the option to rent a wet suit once you arrive at Hanauma Bay. When you arrive you will watch a brief video then a trolley will take you down to the bay. Once you're in the water, the view gets much better. I didn't have the chance to see a sea turtle while I was there but there's tons of fish! I would definitely do this again. I also never learned how to swim prior to booking this......but everything went perfectly fine :)

Best place and Best intro to snorkeling
Activity Date: 2016/04/08 | Posted on: 2016/05/02

Hanauma Bay is where you want to begin your snorkeling experience in Oahu. Chieko and her husband were thorough, patient, kind and professional in all aspects of this snorkel tour at Hanauma Bay. The coral has lost some its color vibrancy from the daily influx of people swimming there but the fish were plentiful and made up for the moderate deficiency. I enjoyed it enough here to come again a second time, solo. Again, great tour guides and best place to begin your snorkel adventure. Enjoy!

There were two groups participating, including a Filipino family who came from the mainland United States. I brought my mother along, but all the participants were quite good swimmers, so the guide, sensing this, took us out further than expected. Thanks to that, we were able to see turtles and a variety of colorful, rare fish, which made us very satisfied. I recommend the morning tour as the sea is clearer then.

アメリカ本土から来られたフィリピン人家族とで2組参加でした。
私は母を連れてだったのですが、参加者全員かなり泳げる方だったので、それを察知したガイドさんが、思いの外沖の方まで連れてくださいました。
おかげさまで、亀や色とりどりの珍しい魚をみることができ、大満足でした。

Fantastic place to swim, snorkel and meet the locals. If you do not have your own snorkel equipment, need a ride to and from this area and a good lunch, then this is a decent deal. However, I had my own equipment and in hindsight I wished I had rented a car (same cost) for travel to Kailua Beach. The beach is free, could have stayed till sunset (instead of 2:30 pm), explore the nightlife, and dined here instead of my expensive tourist trap in Waikiki. Learn from my experience, but come here for a great beach experience.

Since it was a half-day course, I thought it might be a bit lacking, but I was fortunate to have kind lectures and even meet a sea turtle "Little Buddy," making it a very satisfying and exciting tour. The interactions with Mr. Dan during the transportation were enjoyable, and my nice partnership with Chieko-san also made me feel happy. Mahalo!!!

My daughter and a friend decided to stay in Oahu over spring break instead of coming home. They had planned bus trips for Hanauma Bay as well as North Shore during the week. After having a horrible time with the bus schedules and waiting to get to their destinations, I decided to get them tickets for the shuttle. So glad I did! They had a really good time, hassle free of buses and hotel pick up and drop off was perfect for them. The trip to the bay made their spring break! So glad I found this site, and we will use them again when we visit her over Thanksgiving this year!

The best experience for three generations!
三世代で最高の体験!
Activity Date: 2016/03/28 | Posted on: 2016/04/03

This trip to Hawaii was a three-generation adventure. The kids (ages 6 and 7) and my parents (both over 60) experienced snorkeling for the first time. Initially, I planned to go out to the reef alone, but after hearing Chieko's encouragement, we all decided to give it a try! In the end, only my sister, my nephew, and I made it out to the reef, but Chieko's heartfelt desire to show us something special really came through (tears). The group that went out to the reef was with Dan. Dan was incredibly kind and held my nephew's hand the whole way. Fortunately, we were able to see two large turtles. The only disappointing part was that my GoPro froze halfway through, so I couldn't capture the moments (tears). I really wanted to film us swimming together!!! I'll save that for next time. Thank you, Chieko and Dan, for all your help this time. I definitely want to ask for your assistance again. Thank you very much.

今回のハワイ旅行は三世代。子供(6歳と7歳)と両親(二人とも60過ぎ)はシュノーケルが初体験。はじめは私だけが沖までいく予定でしたがチエコさんのお話を聞いて全員でトライすることに!結果、沖までいけたのは私と姉と甥っ子のみでしたが、チエコさんの「どうにか見せてあげたい!」というお気持ちがかなり伝わりました(泣)沖へ行く組はダンさんと一緒に。ダンさんもものすごく優しくて甥っ子の手をずっと引いて行ってくれました。ラッキーなことに大きな亀さんが二匹も見ることが出来ました。私のGOPROが途中でフリーズしてしまい撮影出来なかったことだけが残念です(泣)一緒に泳いだところを撮りたかった!!!それはまた次回のお楽しみにとっておきます。チエコさん、ダンさん今回はお世話になりました。また絶対にお願いしたいと思います。ありがとうございました。

The snorkeling tour with the three-generation family was so much fun! I was really happy to see everyone trying their best. Even the grandparents, who initially planned not to swim, did very well and were able to reach the white buoy in the backyard, where we saw a large school of ladyfish. Please come again when you visit Hawaii. Next time, let's all swim out together to see the cute turtles in Hanauma! I look forward to seeing you all again. Thank you! Mahalo!!

三世代ファミリーでのシュノーケリングツアー、楽しかったですね!!皆さんが頑張ってトライしてくれて、私もうれしかったです。最初は泳がないつもりだったお祖父様、お祖母様もとてもお上手で、バックヤードの白ブイまで行くことが出来て大きなレディフィッシュの群れも見れましたね。是非またハワイにお越しの際には皆さんで来てください。次回は皆さんでアウトサイドまで泳いでまたハナウマのかわいい亀さんを見に行きましょうね!!またお会いできるのを楽しみに待っています。ありがとうございました。Mahalo!!

Do not be afraid of this activity. First, the tour directors could not have been more friendly and helpful. Second, they could not have made it any easier. They picked us up at the lobby of the hotel, drove us to the bay, got us through the required orientation film and down to the water so efficiently. They have been doing this so long that they anticipated all of our needs (even before we realized that we had the need). Then, guided us into the water and instructed everyone on how to use the shorkle and made us all feel very comfortable. Even the 8 year old twins who are normally a handful. We were slowly guided around the bay and shown fish, eels and turtles. We stopped for pictures occasionally. And, told that we could download them from Facebook later that night.
When we were done, they gave us much needed water and snacks. Much needed because this was a good work out ( for a fat old guy). We got back to the van and were taken right back to our hotel and were the. Already trying to figure out when we could do the excursion again.
So, you don't have to worry about whether or not this is worth doing. And, it couldn't be easier or more enjoyable..

Last year, I used "The Bus" to get to Kailua on my own. Initially, I had planned to include a visit to Lanikai Beach, but things started to go awry when I had to wait for a "bicycle rental." I ended up getting lost and wasted quite a bit of time. As a result, I had to give up on Lanikai Beach. My town exploration was also unsatisfactory, so I returned to Waikiki... Then the tragedy continued, as I was stuck for over an hour on the way back to Waikiki due to unclear bus operations. I returned to Ala Moana Shopping Center completely exhausted.

Reflecting on that experience, I signed up for this tour. Without worrying about transportation, I was able to rent a bicycle for just $10, which allowed easy access to Kailua Beach and, of course, Lanikai Beach. I was able to enjoy the beautiful scenery of the blue sky and clear ocean.

Not only the beach but also the lunch pizza was very delicious, and there were proper changing facilities, so I could enjoy exploring the town with peace of mind. However, after the initial briefing from the staff upon arrival, the tour had a style where you are “free” in a good way, but “left to your own devices” in a bad way. If you don’t check the places you want to visit in advance, time can slip away quickly.

I highly recommend this tour for those who find using "The Bus" or renting a car cumbersome like I do. If you participate, renting a bicycle and heading from Lanikai Beach to town is the best option! There are many unique shopping options in town that you won't find in Waikiki or Kahala, which I also recommend!

One disappointing aspect was that the pickup location for the voucher issued upon completing the tour reservation was incorrect. I had arrived early at a location across the street from my hotel, but it turned out that the bus was picking up at my hotel, which caused delays for other participants. Of course, the driver and staff from the tour company apologized, but since I provided an emergency contact at the time of booking, I would have appreciated a prior notification regarding this issue.

昨年、自力で「The Bus」を利用して行ったカイルア。当初は、ラニカイビーチまで含めた観光を予定していましたが、「自転車レンタル」の空き待ちあたりから、雲行きが怪しくなり、道に迷ったりして相当な時間をロス。結果、ラニカイビーチは断念。タウン散策も消化不良にワイキキに戻ることに・・・。そして悲劇(?!)は続き、ワイキキまでの復路で、バスの運行状況が良くわからず、カイルアで1時間以上も足止め。へとへとになってアラモアナSCまで戻ってくるというものでした。

という前回を反省し、申し込みをした今ツアー。
往復の“足”の心配もなく、1人10ドルで自転車もレンタルできたため、カイルアビーチは勿論、ラニカイビーチにも簡単にアクセスができ、青い空と透明な海・・・と素晴らしい景色を満喫することできました。

ビーチだけでなく、ランチもピザがとても美味しく、着替えの場所もちゃんと確保されているので、安心してタウン散策も楽しむことができました。ただ、現地到着後、スタッフからの一通りの説明の後は、いい意味で“自由に”そして、悪い意味で“放っておかれる”スタイルのツアーですので、事前に行きたい所をチェックしてツアーに臨まないと、あっという間に時間が過ぎてしまう感じでした。

私のように「The Bus」の利用やレンタカーが面倒と考える方に、ぜひお勧めしたいツアーです。そして参加されるなら、自転車をレンタルして、ラニカイビーチからタウンまで繰り出すのがベスト!タウンでの買い物もワイキキやカハラでは無いような物も沢山ありお勧めです!

ただ一つ残念だったのは、ツアー予約完了時に発行されたバウチャーのピックアップ場所が、間違えていたこと。宿泊ホテルの通りをはさんだ場所に早めにスタンバイしていたのに、結局、宿泊ホテルにバスは迎えに来ていたようで、他の参加者の方々をお待たせする形になってしまいました。勿論、運転手やツアー催行会社のスタッフの方からの謝罪はありましたが、予約時には緊急連絡先を記載しておりますので、その旨事前にご連絡をいただければと思いました。

This time, I participated in a honeymoon trip. The pickup was supposed to be in front of the Sheraton Princess Kaiulani, but I got anxious when the car didn't arrive even after the meeting time had passed. After that, I spotted someone calling out "Kailua," and when I said my name, it turned out to be the tour guide. Following the guide, I was relieved to find the bus parked near the Hyatt Regency Hotel.

After getting on the bus, we arrived at the Kailua Beach Center after about an hour. Once we got off the bus, we were first guided in English, and I was confused about what was happening. Following the guide, I ended up in a room where we had to sign a consent form, but everyone around me was a foreigner, and I felt very anxious because I couldn't understand anything. After I mentioned that I was Japanese, I was taken to a different room where there were other Japanese people, and it seemed like I had gone to the wrong room. The Japanese people were on the same bus and had been guided ahead of me, so I would have appreciated it if they had confirmed everything until the end.

After the explanation, I rented a bicycle and went for a stroll around the town of Kailua. Since I hadn't had breakfast yet, I planned to eat pancakes at Boots & Kimo's, but it turned out to be closed! I should have checked before going. I gave up on the pancakes and had an acai bowl in the area instead. The center of Kailua is full of shops like gift stores and supermarkets, making it perfect for wandering around. I walked around for about two hours, and then for lunch, I chose pizza since the tour included meal vouchers. The pizza was hearty, and I was satisfied!

After that, we went to Kailua and Lanikai Beach, where we went snorkeling and relaxed. The ocean is beautiful! Compared to Waikiki Beach, there were fewer people, which was nice.

This was a one-day tour, but I was glad that I could stroll around the town of Kailua by bicycle and swim at the beautiful beach, making efficient use of my time.

今回は新婚旅行で参加しました。送迎付きで集合場所はシュラトンプリンセスカイウラニ前でしたが、集合時間過ぎても車は来なく焦りました。その後、カイルアと呼びながらこちらに来る方を見つけ、名前を言うと、ツアーのガイドさんでした。ガイドさんについていくとバスは、ハイアット・リージェンシーホテルのほうに停まっており、安心しました。
そしてバスに乗り1時間ぐらいして、カイルアのビーチセンターに着きました。バスを降りたら、まず英語で案内され、何がなんだか分からずガイドさんについていくと、同意書を書く部屋でも周りは外国人だけで英語で案内され、さっぱり分からず大変不安に思いました。その後、日本人だということを伝えると、別な部屋に案内され、そこには日本人の方もいて、部屋を間違いたみたいでした。日本人の方もバスも一緒に乗っていて、先に案内されていた感じみたいだったので、最後まで確認をしていただきかったです。
説明後、自転車を借りて、カイルアの街に散歩しに行きました。朝食はまだだったので、ブーツ&キモズのパンケーキを食べようと思い、行ったら定休日!行く前に確認しておけば良かったです。パンケーキは諦めて、その周辺でアサイーボウルを食べました。カイルアの中心地は、雑貨屋やスーパーなど、お店がいっぱいあるので、ぶらぶらするには最適でした。2時間ぐらい歩きまわり、その後、昼食で、ツアーに食事券がついていたのでピザを選びました。ピザはボリュームがあって、満足しました!
その後は、カイルア、ラニカイビーチにいき、シュノーケリングをして、ゆっくり過ごしました。とにかく海は綺麗です!ワイキキビーチと比べると人も少ないので、良かったです。
今回は1日コースでしたが、カイルアの街に自転車で散歩して、綺麗なビーチでも泳ぐことができ、時間を効率よく使うことができるツアーで良かったです。

Kailua Beach & Lanikai Day Pass with Included Gear, Free Parking and Optional Waikiki Transportation
one of the best experience I had on my trip
Activity Date: 2016/03/15 | Posted on: 2016/03/20

Before I got to Oahu i was wondering what to do for my short trip. It was my fist trip to Hawaii and i had no idea where to start. But booking a snorkel session with them was a good choice. They picked us up at Waikiki, and the pick up location just happened to be across the street of our hotel. Made a call to our hotel to remind us the day before our session. Even though I never done snorkel before it was easy to learn. As long as you can swim you can snorkel, just remember to keep your breathing tube above water. Kailua beach had clear water and lots of fish, and it's one of the reason I got hooked to snorkeling. We were going to do it again but our trip was too short, but if we had time we would.

This is a honest review from someone who visited to those that are still hesitating. BOOK IT. Your won't regret.

PS: remember to put on sunscreen, water base resist would be best.

You can visit Kailua Beach on a tour even without a car. I definitely recommend renting a bicycle. I first headed to Lanikai Beach by bike, then picked up pancakes to-go from Boots & Kimo's in Kailua Town, had lunch with my lunch ticket, and finally went to Kailua Beach in that order. Lanikai Beach is amazing! It was the most beautiful beach I've ever seen. It's also interesting to ride through the upscale residential areas along the way. For lunch, I had spare ribs, which were hearty and delicious. Boots & Kimo's was decent, but I thought it might not have been worth the time to go there. Since time was limited, I hardly had any time at Kailua Beach. If you want to focus on the beach, I recommend skipping Kailua Town and planning to go to Lanikai Beach in the morning, pick up lunch to-go, and then relax at Kailua Beach in the afternoon. Also, there was a handsome half-Japanese staff member who looked like Ryo Nishikido at the shop! Haha.

車がなくてもツアーでカイルアビーチに行くことができます。
自転車は絶対レンタルした方がいいと思います。
私は最初に自転車でラニカイビーチへ向かい、その後カイルアタウンのブーツ&キモズでパンケーキをテイクアウトし、昼食チケットで昼食を取り、最後にカイルアビーチという順で回りました。
ラニカイビーチは最高です!今まで見たビーチの中で一番綺麗でした。サイクリングの途中で高級住宅街を通るのでそれを見て回るのも面白いです。
昼食はスペアリブを食べましたがボリュームもあって美味しかったです。
ブーツ&キモズはそこそこ美味しかったけど、時間を割いてまで行く必要はなかったかも?と思いました。時間が限られているので、カイルアビーチでの時間がほとんど取れなかったです。
ビーチ中心に回りたいならカイルアタウンを省略して午前中ラニカイビーチ→昼食をテイクアウト→午後はカイルアビーチでまったり、というプランがオススメです。
あとショップに錦戸亮似のイケメンハーフ店員さんがいました!笑

Snorkeling in Kailua
カイルアでシュノーケリング
Activity Date: 2016/03/05 | Posted on: 2016/03/19

I joined the snorkeling tour because I wanted to snorkel in a beautiful location. They picked me up near the hotel, which was convenient. After picking up various groups, the air conditioning on the way was too cold, but we arrived safely (laughs).

There was a changing room at the office, and a Japanese staff member gave us an explanation before we dispersed. I was given a paper wristband with a colored tag indicating the meeting time and course, but that part turned white while the rest got sunburned, so be careful (laughs).

After changing, we walked for about 7 minutes to reach the beach. The scenery was lovely. I could only see sand underwater (sweat), and since I didn't have an anti-fog solution for my goggles, they started to fog up (sweat). The sea in early March was still cold around 10 AM.

After enjoying it for about an hour, we returned for lunch. I received something like a lunch ticket, so I had rice dishes, pizza, and I think something else (sweat). I chose Bob's pizza. The one with just salami was crisp and gooey, and it was very delicious (happy). I want to eat it again!

After that, I went to the Whole Foods Market I was aiming for, which was about a 20-minute walk. The organic John Masters Organics shampoo was inexpensive, and BURT'S BEES lip balm was cheap for two. There was also affordable honey from a small bear. There were many other interesting shops, but unfortunately, I didn't have enough time, so I returned to the meeting place.

景色の綺麗なところでシュノーケリングしたくて参加しました。
ホテルの近くまでピックアップにきてくれて楽でした。
それからいろんなグループをピックアップして、道中のエアコンが寒すぎましたが無事到着(笑)
事務所に更衣室があって日本人のスタッフの方から説明があり、そのあと解散。腕に集合時間、コース別の色の付いた紙製のリストバンドを巻いてもらったのですが、そこだけ白くなって他が日に焼けてしまったのでご注意(笑)。
着替えてから歩いて7分程でビーチに到着。素敵な景色です。
海の中は砂しか見れませんでしたが(汗)
そして曇り取りがゴーグルにしていないのでくもってきて(汗)
3月初めの海は朝10時位でしたがまだ冷たいですね。
一時間位堪能したあと、ランチしに戻りました。
ランチ券みたいなのをいただいたので、ご飯系とピザと、あとなんかあったような(汗)
ボブさんのピザにしました。
ボブスペシャルよりサラミのみのほうが、カリっトロっとしてとても美味しかったです(幸)また食べたいな
そのあとはお目当のwhole foods marketに行きました。
歩いて20分程。
オーガニックのジョンマスターオーガニクスのシャンプーがお安かったり、BURT'S BEESのリップも二本で安かったり、小さいクマのハチミツもお安かったです。
他にも色々面白そうなお店がありましたが、残念ながら時間がなかったので集合場所に戻りました。
