ハナウマ湾シュノーケリング　日本語ガイドが海の世界へご案内＜シュノーケルセット／終日＞

Thank you for your help, Alan! アランさん、お世話になりました！

Reviewed by: eri

This time, we were taken care of by Alan!
After arriving at the beach, we received a thorough explanation of snorkeling and off we went!
We practiced in the shallow water at first, and then Alan held my hand and took us deeper into the ocean. It was our second time at Hanauma Bay, but before we knew it, we had gone out to a much deeper area that we couldn't reach at all during our first visit. It's a shame we didn't see any sea turtles, but we were satisfied with the beautiful corals and plenty of fish we saw!
After coming out of the water, they gave us water and snacks! However, I thought we would have some free time, but we didn't have any at all, so I couldn't take many photos.
After returning to the beach, I think it would be nice to dive again if we still have energy!
Overall, I was very satisfied!

今回、私たちはアランさんにお世話になりました！
ビーチに着いて、丁寧なシュノーケルの説明を受けていざ出発☆
最初は浅瀬で練習したあと、アランさんに手を繋いでもらってぐんぐん奥へ連れていってもらいました。私たちは二回目のハナウマ湾でしたが、気づいたら一回目では全く行けなかったすーーーーごく沖まで行ってました。ウミガメが見れなかったのは残念ですが、綺麗なサンゴ、お魚いっぱい見れて満足です♪
海を出たあとは水とお菓子をくれました！ただ、自由時間があると思ってたんですが、全然なかったのであまり写真が取れませんでした。
浜辺に戻ったあと、元気があればもう一度潜るのもいいと思います！
全体的には満足できました♪

Hanauma Bay is like an aquarium. ハナウマ湾は水族館状態

Reviewed by: mac

We participated in a group of seven, including families with elementary school children and couples. Therefore, we split into two groups: the family and our group of four, to enjoy snorkeling. It seemed a bit challenging for the elementary school kids, as they had an instructor dedicated to helping them. Our group swam a little further out, around the edge where the water was about 5 meters deep. It truly felt like we were swimming inside an aquarium. Although we were wearing life jackets and didn’t dive, just floating on the surface was plenty of fun. In the end, we encountered a turtle in the shallow waters and were able to swim alongside it. That was quite an emotional experience. We got so close that I thought I might accidentally bump into its shell due to the waves. After crossing the bay for about 30 minutes, we finished up. It was quite exhausting. Since it’s a three-hour tour, either in the morning or afternoon, I think it’s a convenient way to make good use of your day. I took photos using a regular digital camera placed in a waterproof pack, DiCAPacα. It’s affordable and I recommend it. Just be careful, as the edges might get in the shot. Of course, if seawater gets in, it will break, so please take responsibility for that.

我々が参加したグループは、小学生を含んだ家族とカップルと我々の7人。
そのため、家族と、我々4人の二グループに分かれて、シュノーケリングを
楽しむことになりました。やはり小学生には、ちょっと大変だったようで、インストラクターつきっきりで、お世話をしていました。我々のグループは、
少し沖に出て、水深5Mぐらいの縁を泳ぎました。まさにそこは水族館の中を
泳いでいるかのようでした。救命胴衣を付けていたので潜りはしませんが
海面を浮いているだけでも、十分に楽しめました。最後は、浅瀬でカメに遭遇し、一緒に泳ぐことが出来ました。これはちょっと感動物です。
波に押されて、思わず甲羅にぶつかるかと思うぐらいに、接近遭遇してしまいました。30分ぐらい湾中を横断し、終了。けっこうへとへとになります。
午前か午後か、3時間ほどのツアーなので、お手軽で一日を有効利用出来るスケジュールだと思います。
撮った写真は、普通のデジカメを、防水のパックDiCAPacα に入れて撮りました。お手頃でお勧めです。ただ注意しないと、縁が写り込んでしまいます。
もちろん、海水が入ったら壊れますので、自己責任でお願いします。

I participated the morning after arriving in Hawaii. The guide was fluent in Japanese and shared various recommended spots during the drive to Hanauma Bay. This was helpful for our stay.

There are plenty of fish even in the shallow waters, so I think even those who can't swim can enjoy it. My daughter (16 years old) was able to go quite deep with the help of our guide, Jim, during snorkeling.

Thank you, Alan and Jim, for a fun and valuable experience.

　ハワイに着いて次の日の朝に参加しました。ガイドの方は日本語が堪能で、ハナウマ湾に着くまでの間車の中で、お勧めスポットを色々と教えてくれました。滞在中の参考になりますよ。

Encountered a turtle! Lucky! カメに遭遇！ラッキー！

Reviewed by: こねこ

This was my second time at Hanauma Bay. Last time, I went by bus and brought my own snorkeling gear, but this time I signed up for a guided tour with snorkeling, fins, and a life jacket because I was worried about my friend's swimming ability (the travel agency didn't have any guided options).

It was easy since the guide helped my friend, who can't swim, by holding their hand while swimming together. We didn't have to wait in line for tickets, and they also took care of our valuables. The guide spoke Japanese well and was very kind.

As rumored, they knew the spots where we could see turtles and fish, and after moving to a different location and swimming a bit, we encountered a turtle. The turtle swam leisurely, eating and not afraid of humans, so we could watch it up close for a long time. I had never been interested in turtles before, but it had such cute eyes and was so big that I fell in love with it.

The weather wasn't very good, and there were some waves, so we couldn't go too far out, but I would love to come back on a sunny day and have them guide me again!

ハナウマ湾は２回目です。前回は自分でバスで行き、シュノーケルも持って行きましたが、今回友人の泳ぎが不安だったので、ガイド付き、シュノーケル・フィン・ライフジャケット付きのツアーに申し込みました。（旅行会社のはガイド付きのものがなかったので。）
泳げない友人の手をつないで一緒に泳いでくれたので、楽でした。
チケットも並ばずに済むし、貴重品の保管もやってくれます。
ガイドさんは日本語がうまく、とても親切でした。
カメや魚のいるポイントを知っているとの評判通り、場所を移動してから少し泳ぐとカメに遭遇しました。
カメはゆったりと泳いで、えさを食べたりして、人間を怖がらないのか間近でずーーーーっと見てられました。今までカメには興味なかったけど、とてもかわいい目をしていて大きくて、大好きになりました。
天気があまりよくなかく、波もあったのであまり沖へでていけれなかったのですが、晴れた日にまたリベンジして案内してもらいたいです！

Hanauma Bay, clear skies! I swam with turtles! ハナウマ湾　快晴！　亀と泳ぎました！

Reviewed by: ふ～たん

The weather was perfect, ideal for snorkeling. Both the sky and the sea were shining blue. We arrived in Hawaii in the morning and participated in the afternoon. My 13-year-old son seemed to find it unusual to snorkel with fins. The instructor was attentive, and when I mentioned that I wasn't confident in my swimming, he held my hand and took me to the spot. Besides my son, there was only one family with a father and his elementary and middle school sons. We were able to see many fish up close, including quite large ones.

Along the way, we encountered a turtle, and everyone swam after it, much to the children's delight. Those who went snorkeling freely mentioned that they couldn't see the turtle. It was a great decision to join a tour with an instructor who knows Hanauma Bay well.

At first, I stepped on some coral and scraped my foot, which was a bit painful. It would have been nice if the participants had been warned to watch their footing, but that can't be helped. It was before I put on my fins. Please be careful, everyone.

However, I had a great time and would like to participate again. It would have been better to have about 30 minutes of free swimming time after snorkeling. In terms of seeing fish up close, I highly recommend this experience. I was able to see a greater variety of fish compared to the Sea Walk I participated in previously in Guam.

天候に恵まれ、絶好のシュノーケリング日和。
空も海も青く輝いていました。午前ハワイ着で、午後からの参加です。１３歳の息子も足ひれを付けてのシュノーケリングが珍しいようでした。インストラクターさんは丁寧で、私が泳ぎに自信がないと話すと、手を引いてスポットに連れて行ってくれました。息子の他は、お父さんと小、中学生の息子さんの家族だけでした。まじかで沢山の魚を見ることができました。
かなり大きな魚もいました。
途中で亀と遭遇。皆で亀の後をついて泳ぎました。
子供たちも大喜び。
フリーでシュノーケリングに行った方たちは亀を見ることはできなかったと話していました。
ハナウマ湾をよく知っているインストラクターさんと一緒のツアーで大正解です。
最初に、珊瑚を踏んで足をすりむいてしまったので、ちょっと痛い思いをしました。・・・参加者の足場に気をつけてくれると良かったんですが、それは仕方がないですね。足ひれを付ける前でした。
皆さんも、気をつけてください。
でも、充分に楽しめました。また、参加したいです。
シュノーケリングの後、自由に泳ぐ時間が３０分程度、あったほうが良かったです。
魚をまじかに見られるという点では一番おすすめです。
以前、グアムで参加したシーウオークよりも、さまざまな種類の魚を見ることができました。

This was my first time snorkeling, and I encountered two sea turtles. Following the guide's instructions, I was able to find them quickly. I had never met a sea turtle while diving, so encountering them was an emotional experience. The guide spoke fluent Japanese and had a friendly personality, which was great. It's the perfect way to experience the fun of snorkeling.

今回シュノーケリングは初でしたがウミガメ2匹に遭遇。ガイドさんの言うとおりに進んでいたらすぐに発見できました。ダイビングでもウミガメに出合ったことがなかったので、ウミガメとの遭遇は感動的でした。日本語も流暢だし、気さくな人柄も良かったです。シュノーケリングの面白さを体験するには最高です。

Diving mood ダイビング気分

Reviewed by: 鎌倉市在住

We participated as a family of four (two children, a middle schooler and a high schooler). On time, Alan, a tall man, picked us up at the hotel in a van. After that, we went to the office to get our fins, and we headed to Hanauma Bay on the highway. There were only four of us participants. We took a separate route from the general public and received VIP treatment to the beach, where we immediately started snorkeling. All five of us held hands, and Alan, at the front, guided us to various spots, allowing us to see many fish. It was about an hour in total. We went to a place where we couldn't touch the bottom, but since we had floatation devices attached to our bodies, even those who couldn't swim felt safe. In March, Hanauma can feel a bit chilly, so I think it's a good idea to bring a rash guard. We bought ours at a low price. Since the half-day course was short, we thought we would like to go to Hanauma again just the two of us and take it easy. I highly recommend this course for first-time snorkelers. Alan was a very kind and gentle gentleman. The kids even got to take pictures with him.

夫婦と子供2人（中学生・高校生）で参加しました。時間通りにホテルに長身のアランさんがバンで迎えにきてくれた。その後事務所で足にあった足ひれをつんで、高速でハナウマへ向かいました。参加者は私たち4人だけ。一般の人とは別のルートでＶＩＰ待遇でビーチまで行き、さっそく、シュノーケリング開始。5人全員で手をつないで、先頭のアランさんがみんなをいろいろなところに引っ張って行ってくれたので、たくさんの魚をみることができた。実質1時間ぐらいでしょうか。まったく足のつかないところまでいきましたが、からだに浮き袋のようなものをつけているので泳げない人でも安心です。ハナウマの3月は多少寒いと感じることもありましたので、ラッシュガードを持っていくといいと思います。私たちは安く購入していきました。半日コースで時間が短かったので、今度は自分たちだけで、のんびりハナウマに行きたいとおもいました。シュノーケリング初めての人はぜひこのコースにすることをお勧めします。アランさんはとてもやさしく親切なジェントルマンでした。こどもたちは一緒に写真をとってもらいましたよ。

Perfect for beginners. 初心者に最適

Reviewed by: はるこ

They provide detailed instructions on how to use the snorkel and where to find fish, so even complete beginners can feel at ease. There was a family of tourists from Alaska accompanying us. They seemed to be swimming for the first time, but they received thorough and attentive guidance. Since it's difficult for amateurs to know where the fish are, I think it's important to have a guide show you around.

シュノーケルの使い方や魚のいる場所など丁寧に教えてくれるのでまったくの初心者でも安心です。
同行の人にアラスカからの観光客の親子がいました。
泳ぐのも初めてだという風情でしたが懇切丁寧な指導をしてもらっていました。
魚のいる場所が素人にはわからないので、ガイドさんに案内してもらうことは大切だと思います。

I participated in the morning group on November 19th. There were a total of four participants. Since it was November, I was worried about the water temperature, but the weather was nice, and once I got into the sea, the water temperature wasn't a concern. However, towards the end, my body started to get cold, so having a rash guard would be even better.

First, there was an explanation of snorkeling methods on the beach, and then we entered the sea with our guide, Alan. We went to a deep area outside the reef that I would never have been able to reach on my own, saw many tropical fish, and even encountered sea turtles up close several times, which was truly moving.

If you're going to Hanauma Bay, I recommend joining a guided tour. In the morning, there are fewer people, and I think you can have an efficient and fulfilling experience.

11月19日の午前の組に参加しました。参加者は計4名。11月ということで水温を心配しましたが、天気も良く海に入ると水温はそんなに気になりませんでした。ただし後半は体が冷えてくるので、ラッシュガードがあればなおgood。
最初にビーチでシュノーケリングの方法の説明があり、その後、ガイドのアランさんと一緒に海に入りました。自分だけでは決して行くことのできないリーフ外の水深の深い場所に行き、たくさんの熱帯魚を見て、更には身近で海ガメにも何回も遭遇することができ、大変感動しました。
ハナウマ湾に行くならガイド付きのツアーに参加することをお勧めします。午前中なら、人も少なく効率的に充実した時間を過ごすことができると思います。

The night before, it rained, and I was worried. I've been to Hawaii several times, but Hanauma Bay, which I saw for the first time from above, was very beautiful. When I went down, the waves were a bit high and the water was murky. However, thanks to Alan, from the moment he picked us up from the hotel, we could just relax and not worry about the time or our luggage. He took us to a spot where we could see fish despite the murky water. When I focused on watching the fish, time flew by. Since it was just my husband and me participating, we were able to hold hands with Alan the whole time, making it feel like a private experience. My husband, who came out of the water, was parched and was thrilled with the water that Alan provided. I absolutely recommend this for first-timers and beginners. You can really focus on watching the fish. The only reason I didn't give it five stars is that it is indeed affected by the weather; if it had been sunny with calm waves, I definitely think it would have been five stars. Thank you very much.

前日の夜、雨が降り心配してました。
ハワイには何回か来ましたが、初めて見るハナウマ湾は上から見るととてもきれいでした。
下に降りると、波が少し高く、濁っていました。
ただ、アランさんのおかげで、ホテルからピックアップしてもらったときから、もうおまかせで、帰る時間も荷物も気にせず、海が濁りながらも魚が見えるところに連れていってもらいました。
魚を見ることに集中しているとあっという間に時間になりました。参加したのが私たち夫婦２人だけということもあり、ずっと海の中でアランさんと手をつないでもらい。貸切状態。
海からあがった主人はのどがからからで、アランさんが用意してくれた水に感激してました。初めて行かれる方、初心者の方には絶対おすすめです。魚をみることに集中できます。星がひとつ足りないのは、やはり天候に左右されるので、晴れてて波がなかったら、間違いなく星５つだったと思います。ありがとうございました。

Since I usually wear glasses, I consulted with Alan, and he informed me that they rent prescription underwater masks for $5 at Hanauma Bay, which was very helpful.

Thanks to the salsa dance instructors in the same group as Alan, we were able to go to places we could never have reached on our own, and we got to see turtles and many fish, which made us very satisfied.

First snorkeling!!! 初シュノーケル！！！

Reviewed by: マロンまま

It was my first time in Hawaii and my first snorkeling experience. I was a bit anxious about what kind of instructor I would have, but Alan was very good at Japanese. He is quite tall and has experience living in Japan, so I had no worries about the language barrier. He patiently taught me how to put on the snorkeling gear, and then we headed into the water (starting with some practice). Although I understood it in my head, I struggled to breathe properly at first and thought, "This is impossible!" But Alan held my hand, and as I swam, I gained confidence in my breathing and was able to swim out further (＾＾)V. The seawater wasn't exactly clear, but I was able to see schools of fish and colorful fish, and I even encountered two sea turtles that I probably wouldn't have seen without Alan's guidance. After returning to the sandy beach for a break, I encouraged Alan to go back into the water, but he told me there was no more time. I was left feeling a bit dissatisfied that I could only do it once, but I recommend having an instructor for those who are snorkeling for the first time.

初めてのハワイで初シュノーケルでした。どんなインストラクターか不安でしたが日本語がとても上手なアランさんでした。身長がとても高く日本にも在住した経験があるそうで言葉の不安は全然ありません。シュノーケルの装着方法を丁寧に教えて貰い、いざ海中へ（初めは練習です）。頭で理解できてたのに呼吸が上手く出来なくて　無理~！　と思ったのもつかの間でアランさんが手を繋いでくれ泳いでるうちに息の仕方にも自信がつき沖へ向かって泳ぐことが出来ました（＾＾）V　海水は綺麗とは言えませんが群れをなした魚やカラフルな魚を見ることが出来、アランさんが居なかったら多分見れなかっただろう海がめとも２匹と遭遇できました。砂浜に戻り休憩後、海に入ろうとアランさんを促したら、もう時間が無いと言われました。一度しか出来ないのが不満に残りましたがシュノーケルを初めてする方はインストラクター付がお勧めです。

I participated on October 6th. There were 2 other people, making a total of 4.

The weather was wonderful, shining in beautiful colors. I had some experience, but I felt a bit anxious. I remembered the time I snorkeled in the Sea of Heaven and struggled in deeper water with the waves.

As expected, I had tightened my mask too much, and it seems I ended up swallowing seawater. However, they kindly took care of me and taught me that tightening the mask can actually make water enter more easily, and they helped me adjust it.

Thanks to that, I was able to enjoy the rest of the experience without any problems. To my surprise, I was able to see a sea turtle, which was munching on algae right below me. Additionally, according to the guide, we encountered a rare moray eel.

Time flew by, and I wished I could swim more. It was a tour that made me want to participate again.

I had no experience with snorkeling, so I chose a guided tour. It was definitely worth it.

At first, since the other two participants couldn't swim, my husband and I swam around on our own until they got used to the water. During that time, we hardly saw any fish. However, when the guide said, "Please come this way," and we followed, we started to see more and more fish. Moreover, the guide pointed out things like sea turtles that we wouldn't have noticed on our own, so we didn't miss anything. When asked if we wanted to go deeper, I answered "yes," and the guide held the hands of the two non-swimmers while taking us to a place we could never have reached on our own. There, we were able to see a world we usually can't see, and I was very satisfied. I believe we would not have had such an experience without the guide. I'm glad we participated.

Additionally, we could pack our belongings into a large box, lock it up, and leave it on the beach, which made me feel secure.

However, I had some concerns about the guide. When we were picked up, I said "Hello!" but received no response, and there was no conversation in the car, which made me very anxious about whether he understood Japanese. After picking us up, he welcomed two foreign guests and spoke to them in English in the car, explaining about the town we passed through (probably the Kahala area), but there was no explanation in Japanese. The car was quite old, and I thought maybe I had made a mistake by paying a high price for this.

On the way, we stopped at an office-like place to pick up fins and other gear. Since there was no explanation about what we were doing there, I felt a bit uneasy about why we were being dropped off. However, it was there that the guide finally asked in Japanese, "What is your foot size?" and I realized he could speak Japanese.

After arriving at Hanauma Bay, he said, "First, I will explain in English, and then in Japanese," and we finally received a proper explanation in Japanese about how to snorkel, which made me feel relieved.

シュノーケルは経験がなかったため自信がなく、このガイドさんつきツアーにしました。
その甲斐が十分あるツアーでした。

最初、私たちの他の参加者２人が泳げなかったため、その方たちが水に慣れるまで私たち夫婦は自分たちで近くを泳ぎ回りました。
その時はほとんど魚を見ることができませんでした。
しかし、その後ガイドさんが
「こっちに来てください。」
と言った方向に向かっていくと、どんどん魚を見ることができました。
しかも、ウミガメなど近くにいても自分では気がつかなかったのに、それをちゃんと教えてくれるので見逃さずに済みました。
さらに「もっと深いところに行きたいか？」と聞かれたので「はい。」と答えたら、泳げない２人の手をしっかりとガイドさんがつないだまま、自分たちでは絶対に到達できないようなところまで連れていってくれました。
そこでは普段見ることのできない世界を見ることができてとても満足でした。
ガイドさんなしツアーだったら、こんな経験は絶対にできなかったと思います。
参加して良かったです。

また、持って行った荷物も大きなボックスにみんなで詰め、鍵とチェーンをかけて砂浜に置いておいてもらえるので、安心でした。

ただ、ガイドさん自身についてはちょっと不審点がありました。
お迎え時にこちらから「こんにちは！」と言ったら何の返事もなく、車に乗っても特に話はしないので日本語がわかるのかとても不安になりました。
私たち夫婦の迎えの後、２人の外人のお迎えをしました。その外人の方たちとは車内で英語で話していて、途中通った街（おそらくカハラ地区）についても説明していましたが、日本語では特に説明はありませんでした。
車も結構古く、高いお金を出して申し込んでちょっと失敗だったかな、と思いました。

行く途中、フィンなど荷物を取るため、事務所のようなところに立ち寄りました。
それも特に何をするのか説明してくれなかったので、何でここで降ろされるんだろう？とちょっと不安でした。
しかし、そこでようやく日本語で
「足のサイズは何ｃｍ？」
と聞かれて、日本語ができることを認識しました。

ハナウマ湾に到着してからは、
「まず英語で説明してから、日本語で説明します。」
ということで、シュノーケルの方法などちゃんと日本語での説明があり、やっと安心

In the morning plan, there were four of us: my partner and I, along with another couple.

The weather in the morning was a bit cloudy with some light rain, but by the time we arrived at Hanauma Bay, it was nice and sunny.

However, there was a strong wind which made me a bit anxious, but the sea wasn't too cold and the sun wasn't too strong, so I think it's better for those concerned about sunburn to go in the morning.

The instructor spoke Japanese without any issues. My husband was snorkeling for the first time, and I was also a bit anxious since it had been a while, but we were able to relax because they guided us by holding our hands to the snorkeling points.

We encountered three turtles!!! It was my first time seeing a swimming turtle right in front of me, and I was really moved. We also saw many beautiful fish.

Since the time was short, I wish there had been a little more free time.

I didn't bring my camera because I was worried it might get lost, but there are lockable boxes, so your valuables are safe.

I regret not bringing it a little.

午前のプランで。。。
私達カップルともう一カップルの４人でした。

朝のお天気は少し曇りで雨も少し降ってましたが
ハナウマ湾に着いたら良いお天気に。。。

しかし風が強く不安も有りましたが
海もそれ程冷たくなく日差しも強くなかったので
日焼けを気になさる方は午前中が良いと思います。

インストラクターの方も日本語も問題無く
私の主人は初のシュノーケル、私も久し振りで不安も有りましたが
手を繋いでポイントまで導いてくれたので安心して出来ました。

亀にも３匹出会いましたよ！！！
泳いでる亀を目の前で見たのは初だったので感動致しました。
綺麗なお魚にも沢山出会えました。


やはり時間が短いので欲を言えば自由時間がもぉ少し有ると良いかなぁ~と思いました。

カメラも無くなったらと思い持って行きませんでしたが
鍵のかかるＢＯＸが有るので貴重品も大丈夫ですよ~

持って行かなかったのがちょっと悔しいです。

ハナウマ湾シュノーケリング　日本語ガイドが海の世界へご案内＜シュノーケルセット／終日＞

It was really great. すごく良かったです。

Reviewed by: MIKA

I participated with my younger sister. There were four of us in total, including an American parent and child.

The guide was a foreigner, but he could understand Japanese perfectly and was fluent in conversation. It was my first time snorkeling, but he taught us very carefully from the basics, which made me feel at ease.

When we went out to the sea, he held my hand, so I could snorkel without worry. Once we entered the water, schools of fish came right up to us, which was incredibly moving. There were rainbow-colored fish, and they were really beautiful.

It was my first overseas trip and my first time snorkeling, but I was very satisfied! If I have the chance to go to Hawaii again, I would love to participate again. I highly recommend it!

妹と2人で参加しました。
私達の他にアメリカ人の親子の2人の計四人でした。

ガイドさんは外人さんですが、日本語はちゃんと聞き取れますし、
会話もバッチリ出来る位ペラペラでした。
初めてのシュノーケリングでしたが、
1から凄く丁寧に教えて下さり安心出来ました。

いざ、海に出る時も手をつないで頂いてたので、
安心してシュノーケリング出来ました。
海に入ると魚の群れが目の前まで来ててかなりの感動でした。
虹色の魚とかがいて凄くきれいでした。

私は初めての海外旅行＆初めてのシュノーケリングでしたが、
大満足でした！
またハワイに行く機会があったら参加したいです。
めっちゃオススメです。

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＞

Wonderful beauty 素晴らしいきれいさ

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

The ocean in Waikiki is very beautiful, but the ocean in Kailua was exceptionally beautiful. However, the current was strong, so instead of swimming in the sea, we spent a relaxing time by the beach in the shade of the trees. The pizza for lunch was delicious! I would love to go back there when I visit Hawaii again.

ワイキキの海も非常にきれいですが
カイルアの海は格別にきれいでした。
ただ潮の流れが早く海で泳ぐというより
木陰などもあるのでのんびり海辺で過ごすという時間でした。
昼食のピザが美味しかったです！
またハワイに行ったら行きたいところです。

The fear has disappeared. 怖さが消えました

Reviewed by: outrigger

I've been to Hawaii about 7 or 8 times, but I've hardly ever gone into the ocean because I was scared of it. I'm not a strong swimmer either. This time, thanks to Allen (the guide), I fell in love with snorkeling. I was really scared before entering the water, but he patiently taught me how to put on and use the equipment, as well as the signals to use underwater. Even when I got in, he held my hand the whole time and pulled me along, allowing me to observe everything in the ocean closely. Various fish and sea turtles swam right below me or alongside me at the same speed... It was truly beautiful. I definitely want to go again on my next trip. Thank you so, so much, Allen.

ハワイへはもう7・8回行きましたが、海が怖くて入ったことがほとんどありませんでした。泳ぎもできるほうではないし。今回はアレンさん（ガイド）のおかげで、シュノーケルが大好きになりました。　海へ入る前は本当に怖かったのですが、装備の付け方、使い方、水中での合図など丁寧に教えていただき、いざ入ってもずっと手を握っていて引っ張ってくれるので海中をじっくり観察できました。色々な魚や海がめがすぐ下を通り過ぎていったり同じｽﾋﾟｰﾄﾞで泳いでいたり・・・。本当に綺麗でした。次回の旅行でも、必ず行きたいです。アレンさん、本当に本当に有難うございました。

Real aquarium♪ リアル水族館♪

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

I initially hoped for a morning plan, but it was fully booked, so I joined the afternoon plan.

The group consisted of my husband and me, along with eight foreigners. The website mentioned that Japanese was available, but I was a bit worried if that would really be the case. Right on time, an instructor named Alan came to pick us up at the hotel, and I felt relieved as he spoke Japanese well.

After picking up all the members from their respective hotels, we headed to Hanauma Bay.

Upon arrival, we paid the entrance fee of $7.50 and watched a safety video before entering. The video was in English, but there were earphones with Japanese translation available, so it was fine as long as you borrowed them before the video started.

Since the entrance was a bit far from the bay, after the video, we took a bus to the bay. Once we arrived at the sandy beach, we placed our valuables in a large lockbox, and were lent mats, snorkels, and fins, while being taught how to use them in the water. Fortunately, there was a Japanese instructor on site who provided one-on-one guidance.

After receiving instructions, we finally headed to Hanauma Bay! We entered the water, practiced a bit, and then started snorkeling from the left side. As we dove into the sea, we were amazed by the colorful fish. Just after starting, we encountered our first sea turtle! The turtle seemed accustomed to people and came close without fleeing. Following Alan, we swam quite far out and encountered a total of three sea turtles and many fish. The underwater scenery felt just like an aquarium.

We swam for about an hour, and when we finished, I realized we had swum from the left side to the right side (about 500 meters). Normally, I would feel tired after such swimming, but since I was enjoying myself, I didn't feel fatigued at all, and it went by in no time.

Afterward, the Japanese instructor mentioned, "Many people come to swim at Hanauma Bay, but you won't see sea turtles in the area where we swam. The instructors know where to find them." I was really glad I signed up for this tour. If you're wondering what to do in Hawaii, I highly recommend this optional tour! By the way, it seems that sea turtles are a symbol of happiness locally, so it's especially recommended for couples and newlyweds.

午前のプランが希望でしたがいっぱいだったので午後のプランに参加しました。

私達夫婦と外国人８名というメンバーでした。
サイトには日本語可と書いてありましたが、本当に大丈夫かなぁと少し心配でした。
時間ぴったりにアランさんというインストラクターさんがホテルまで迎えにきてくれ、日本語も上手なので安心しました。
全てのメンバーを各ホテルに迎えにいき、ハナウマ湾へ。

到着したらハナウマ湾入場料7.5$を支払い、入場前の注意ビデオを見ます。ビデオは英語ですが、日本語訳のイヤホンがあるのでビデオが始まる前に借りておけば大丈夫です。

入場したところから湾までは少し離れているため、ビデオ終了後はバスに乗り湾まで送ってもらえます。
砂浜に到着すると貴重品をかなり大きい鍵付のＢＯＸに入れ、ゴザとシュノーケルとフィンを貸してもらい海の中での使用方法などを教えてもらいます。
私たちは幸運なことに？日本人インストラクターが現地にいましたので、その方がマンツーマンで丁寧に教えてくれました。

一通り指導を受け、いざハナウマ湾へ！
海に入り軽く練習をしてから左サイドからシュノーケリングを開始しました。
海に潜ると色鮮やかな魚がいっぱいいました。それに感動をしていましたが、始まってすぐに１匹目のウミガメに遭遇！！カメも慣れているのか、逃げずに体の近くまで寄ってきました。
そのままアランさんについてかなりかなり沖まで行き、合計３匹のウミガメとたくさんの魚達に出会えました。
海の中はまるで水族館のようです。

だいたい１時間ぐらい泳ぎ、終了の時気づいたのですが、海の左サイドから右サイド（約500ｍ）にいました。
普段の泳ぎであれば疲れてしまうと思うのですが、楽しみながら泳ぐことができたので疲れもなくあっという間でした。


終了後、日本人インストラクターの方が『たくさんの方がハナウマ湾に泳ぎにきているけど、現在泳いでいる場所ではウミガメは見えないです。インストラクターは居る場所を知っているんですよ。』と言っていました。
なので本当にこのツアーを申し込んで良かったと思いました。
ハワイに行って何をしようか悩んでいるならこのオプショナルツアーはかなりお勧めだと思います！
ちなみに現地ではウミガメは幸せの象徴らしいのでカップル、新婚さんに特にお勧めだ

Small Group Snorkel Tour with Personal Guide at Hanauma Bay [Open Soon]

Phenomenal Day!

Reviewed by: The Decker Family

My family (parents & 2 adult kids) went on a tour, in which we were the only party booked for that afternoon. Our guide, Allyn picked us up curb side from our hotel and was super nice. It was my family's first experience snorkeling and truthfully my mom and I were terrified. Allyn did a fantastic job at easing our fears and explaining everything. While we were in the water, he held my mom's hand the entire time which my mom appreciated so much. My parents got tired and we all went back to get re-hydrated. Allyn took my brother and I back out, along a different route. We saw a couple sea turtles. When we were over the reef, Allyn pulled me in a different direction to point right in front of us... There was this huge sea turtle, I could've reached out and touched it! I only wish the batteries in my camera and the dive could've lasted longer! AMAZING! We would definitely recommend it to other first timers! Thanks Allyn!

It was my first time snorkeling since my honeymoon trip to Hanauma Bay. Since the kids were also snorkeling for the first time in a while, we joined a tour for safety and guidance. We saw sea turtles up close and beautiful fish. The kids were very satisfied with their first experience at Hanauma Bay. Here’s a photo taken by my child: feet and a sea turtle (laughs).

昔、新婚旅行の時にハナウマ湾に来た時以来のシュノーケリング。

It was fun! 楽しかったです！

Reviewed by: きらりん★

I recently participated in this tour. I had joined snorkeling tours several times before, so I was quite torn between choosing a budget tour with just transportation or signing up for this one, but I made the right choice by participating! My family of three had a great time. We were guided to a sea turtle spot and were able to see them perfectly. Of course, we also saw plenty of fish!

There were divers below us, so it seems they took us quite far out. We chose the morning course, but by the time we returned, there was a long line at the entrance of Hanauma Bay (the line extended outside the parking lot). It seems that with this tour, you can enter without waiting in line, so I especially recommend it for those planning to join in the afternoon.

先日、こちらのツアーに参加してきました。シュノーケリングツアーには今までにも何度か参加した事があったので、送迎だけのお値打ちツアーにするか、こちらのツアーで申し込むかかなり悩みましたが、今回参加させていただいて大正解！親子３人とても楽しむ事ができました。海がめスポットも案内していただけ、バッチリ見る事もできました。もちろんたくさんの魚も！
私たちの下でダイビングをされている方達もいらっしゃったので、かなり沖の方まで連れて行って頂けたようです。
私たちは朝のコースでしたが、帰りの時間にはハナウマ湾入り口には長い列が・・(駐車場の外まで長い列でした）
こちらのツアーなら並ばずに入場できるそうなので、午後から参加予定の方には特にお勧めします。

First Snorkel Experience

Reviewed by: Krystal

This was our first snorkeling experience. We didn't go underneath the water, just stayed swimming on top, which was fine with me. The fish were beautiful. The coral reefs are amazing and really a beautiful sight to see. We didn't get to see any sea turtles, but the schools of fish were so great. Our guide held my hand the entire time, and he was really cautious and concerned about the safety to the group. He made my husband and I feel really comfortable our first time snorkeling. Definitely the best and most beautiful place to snorkel in Hawaii.

This was my third time at Hanauma, and the guided tour was really great. When I go on my own, I never know how far I can go, so I usually just stay close by, but this time I was able to go out to the deeper areas with peace of mind.
