All Reviews for Waikiki Beach

I would absolutely recommend this excursion! My husband and I had the best time. Breathtaking scenery, the staff was fun and made the whole experience enjoyable! If you have the opportunity, book this now!

This tour is安心できる with no rocking of the boat. The best seats are on the right side facing the direction of travel. Although it is stated that the meal is a light snack, it turned out to be a buffet, so you can eat as much as you want. One drink is included, and if it's a soft drink, you can enjoy unlimited refills.

船は揺れもなく安心できるツアーです。
座る席は進行方向に向いて右側が最高です。食事も軽食とは書いてありますが
バイキングになっているので食べ放題でした。
１ドリンクは付いていますがソフトドリンクであれば飲み放題です。

The catamaran sunset cruise was amazing! Unlimited Mai Tais! The sunset was also fantastic! I want to go again!

カタマランのサンセットクルーズ最高でした！マイタイ飲み放題！サンセットも最高でした！また行きたいです！

Last time, it was a wonderful sailing experience, so this time I brought my elderly mother and aunt along. It seems like they both really enjoyed it, which is great!!! I plan to repeat it again...

前回、とても素敵なセーリングだったので　今回、年配の母と叔母を連れて
行きました。2人とも大変楽しんでくれたみたいで良かったです！！！
又　リピート予定です。。。

Best cruise!! So much fun, great lads creating such a great atmosphere, definitely one of our highlights of Waikiki! We were lucky enough to see whales also! I highly recommend this sunset cruise to anyone who wants to party and meet like minded fun seeking folks!!

It was amazing.
I even saw whales.
With a little help from alcohol, I made friends with foreigners.
The sunset was the best.
The scenery and sense of openness were completely better than the cruise.
I will definitely use it again.

最高でした。
クジラもみえました。
お酒の力も借りて外国の方とも仲良くなりました。
サンセット最高でした。
クルーズよりも景色と開放感は完全に上でした。
また必ず利用します。

The most awesome snorkelling experience at turtle canyon.
Sadly no whales to see(but v late in season) but we had spinner dolphins alongside the boat.
Great catamaran, fantastic captain and crew who helped us capture awesome videos.
Highly recommended! Great value for money. Book it!

The ship was large and had a relaxed atmosphere. The buffet was delicious. There was live music throughout the journey, which was pleasant and wonderful. I was able to see the whales spouting water multiple times, swimming, and diving with their tails up. It was exciting to wonder where they would appear and how long they would show themselves. However, the distance to the whales made it hard to feel their grandeur. I saw them several times, and it was great to see a mother and calf swimming together.

船は大きくてゆったりした感じ。
ビュッフェも美味しかったです。
乗船中ずーと生演奏の歌があり心地よく素敵でした。
クジラは何回も潮を吹いているところや泳いでいるところ、しっぽを上げて潜るところをみれました。どこに現れるかどのくらい見せてくれるか、はらはらドキドキでした。
ただクジラまで距離があり、クジラの迫力は感じられませんでした。
何回も見られたし、親子で泳いでいるのも見れたのでとても良かったです。

Not only was it pleasant to be on the boat, but the warm guidance and welcome from the staff made me feel at ease, making it the most enjoyable experience of my trip.

船に乗ることが気持ちいいだけでなく、スタッフの皆さんの暖かい案内とお迎えが安心できて、旅の中で一番楽しい体験となりました。

I think there might be a mistake in the description or perhaps a different model, but I participated alone in a four-person helicopter with two people in front (including the pilot) and two in the back (maybe three?). The helicopter in the description also shows two people in front (including the pilot), so it must have been this one.

Since I was with a white father and son, I was pleasantly surprised to be given the first-class seat next to the pilot, which had a clear view down to the front windshield, without any additional option fees.

At the end of February, the weather was mostly cloudy, and there were strong winds and gusts at altitude. It felt like the pilot was constantly adjusting the controls to maintain the balance of the aircraft. Occasionally, the helicopter would drop suddenly, and the sensation of floating was exhilarating. When the helicopter tilted towards my side during the turns, I had to grip the handrail tightly.

Every now and then, when the sun peeked out, the ocean transformed into a vibrant blue, making me feel like, despite the season, Hawaii is amazing!

I wore a short-sleeve T-shirt with a long-sleeve T-shirt over it, plus a rain jacket for hiking, but towards the end, I felt a bit cold.

The helicopter flew past Diamond Head, either from the Waikiki Beach side or the Pearl Harbor side. If I could wish for something, it would be to make a turn after passing the summit so that we could see Waikiki Beach from even higher up behind Diamond Head. In other words, it might give you the privilege of looking down at Waikiki Beach from a higher vantage point, similar to the photos taken from other Diamond Head climbing tours. If you are fluent in English, you might want to negotiate for this.

The pilot was a cheerful and adorable woman who talked continuously during the flight. Despite the poor weather conditions for the season, I highly recommend this experience overall.

多分説明書きが間違ってるか、機種が違うんじゃないかと思うのですが、
パイロット含め前2人、後ろ2人(もしかしたら3人？)の4人乗りのヘリで
1人で参加しました。
説明のヘリ写真も前２人(パイロット含)ですので、配色含めこの機でした。
白人の父親と息子さんらしき方々と乗ったため、必然的にオプション料金なしにパイロットの隣のファーストクラス席、フロントガラスの斜め前下まで見える席にしてもらえ、嬉しい誤算でした。

2月末、天気は曇りがちで、上空は風強く突風も吹き、パイロットが操縦桿を
前後左右こまめに操作して機体のバランスを取っている感じでした。
時折スッと機体が落ちて、体が宙に浮く感じがたまらなかったです。
窓無しヘリで自分の方に機体を傾けて旋回されると、つり革を強く握り締めざるを得なかったです。
時折太陽が顔を出すと、海が一面鮮やかなブルーに変わり、季節外れでも
ハワイやべえ(さすが凄い)！って感じでした。

半袖Tの上に長袖T着て、さらに登山用雨具の上着を着ていましたが、最後の方は少し寒さを感じました。

ワイキキビーチ側、もしくは真珠湾側からダイヤモンドヘッドの頂上のすぐ脇を通り過ぎていくのですが、欲をいえば頂上を過ぎた辺りで一度ターンしてもらえればダイヤモンドヘッド頂上のさらに高い背後から頂上ごとワイキキビーチが観れたんだろうなと思います。
つまり他のダイヤモンドヘッド登頂ツアーでよく見るワイキキビーチを見下ろした写真を、さらに高い所から頂上ごと見下ろせる優越感があるかもしれません。
英語が堪能な方は交渉してみて下さい。

飛行中ずっと話し続けている陽気でかわいい女性パイロットでした。
時期的な天候の悪さを差し引いても総じて超おすすめです。

I participated with my parents. There was a problem with the hotel pickup (it was because we couldn't speak English...), and we got separated from my parents. Additionally, my son's luggage went missing (laughs). However, thanks to the prompt response from the staff, we were able to reunite with my parents and thoroughly enjoy whale watching, seeing whales multiple times. Also, my son's missing luggage was delivered to the hotel. I sincerely thank the staff, especially Emiko, for their help. The meals provided during the trip were ample, and after the watching ended, fresh fruits were added, which made me feel well taken care of.

You don't need to worry if you can't speak English (laughs). I would love to use this service again if I have the chance. Thank you for the wonderful memories.

両親と一緒に参加しました。ホテルピックアップでトラブルがあり(私達が英語が出来なかったせいですが…)両親と離れ離れに、、、更に息子の荷物も行方不明に(笑)しかしスタッフさんの迅速な対応のお陰で両親とも合流でき、ホエールウォッチングも満喫、クジラも何度も見ることが出来ました。そして、行方不明になっていた息子の荷物もホテルまで届けていただきました。日本人スタッフの恵美子さん他、スタッフ方々に心から御礼申し上げます。乗船中の食事は十分用意されていますし、ウォッチングが終わった後にはフルーツ等が新たに足されて本当に行き届いているなと感じました。
英語が話せなくても大丈夫です。(笑)
機会があればまた利用したいです。
楽しい思い出をありがとうございました。

Show was great! Food was not warm and lacking in variety. This luau was very expensive so our expectations were high but it fell short.

First, we had dinner. The server was kind and tried to liven up the atmosphere. They were more attentive than those at high-end restaurants, so I was satisfied with both the taste and the service!
I think the show is also worth seeing. Since I am a fan of Michael Jackson, it was amusing when the impersonator came out. The backup dancers were well-prepared, and the effects were impressive, making it a more authentic show than I expected!

まずは、夕食をいただきました。サーバーの方が親切で場を盛り上げようとしてくれました。高級レストランよりも気配りができるサーバーの方でしたので、味もサービスも満足でした！
ショーも見る価値があると思います。もともと私自身がマイケルジャクソンのファンでもあるので、偽マイケルジャクソンがでてきた時は面白かったです。バックダンサーもしっかりついており、効果もしっかりしており、思っていたよりも本格的なショーで楽しめました！！

I participated in a tour on the afternoon of February 26, 2018. The weather was mostly cloudy, which was different from the typical image of Hawaii's skies, but the boat didn't sway much, so I didn't get seasick. As for the whales, perhaps due to the size of the boat, there were limitations on how close we could get. We were able to see them a few times in the distance. The dorsal fin came up, there was a spout, and finally, the tail fin popped up for the finish. Smaller boats from other tours were able to get a bit closer! However, they might have experienced more swaying and seasickness.

At one point, it started to drizzle and it was windy and cold, so we moved to the lounge on the second floor. During times like this, I was glad to be on this boat.

2018.2.26の午後からのツアーに参加しました。天候は曇りがちで、ハワイの空のイメージとは違いどんよりでしたが、船の揺れは少なかったので船酔いは無かったです。肝心のクジラですが、船が大きい分、近づく距離に制限があるのでしょうか？遠くで何回か見ることが出来ました。背びれが浮いてきて、潮吹き、ラストは尾びれがぴょこんと出てきてフィニッシュ。他のツアーの小さい船はもう少し近づいて見れてましたよ！でも船の揺れは大きく船酔いするかもです。
途中小雨が降り風もあり寒かったので、2階ラウンジに移動。こういう時はこちらの船で良かったと思いました。

The weather wasn't very good, and we couldn't see the sunset. The boat was rocking, and many people got seasick.

天気があまり良くなく、サンセットは見れませんでした。船が揺れてしまって、船酔いする人が多かったです。

I participated with my mother. At first, we were in the room where the buffet was set up, but when we stepped outside, the sea breeze felt wonderful. It can get hot if you stay outside for too long, but when you finally see the whales or their spouts, it’s exciting and fun. So, if you decide to participate, I encourage you to actively go outside and enjoy the thrill of the search.

私は母と二人で参加しました。最初は、ビュッフェが用意されている部屋の中におりましたが、一度部屋の外に出て見ると、海の風が気持ちよかったです。
ずっと外にいると暑いですが、いざクジラの姿や潮吹きを見ると興奮しますし、楽しいですよ。なので、参加される場合には、積極的に外に出て、探す楽しさを味わっていただきたいです。

I was taught by a Japanese instructor. They were very kind, and even though it was my first time surfing, I was able to stand up right away. I want to surf again! I highly recommend it!

日本人のインストラクターに教えて頂きました。とても優しくて、初めてのサーフィンでしたが、すぐに立てるようになりました。サーフィンまたやりたいです！おススメです！

My driver was so nice and friendly ! I ended up being the only one on the shuttle ! He was so nice and friendly and told me about the island and answers all my questions ! It made my experience very good ! I also changed the time and I again was the only one to get picked up and no problem! They were very nice on the phone as well and it was a great price !

I was able to see the splash and fins, and just a glimpse of the back, but it was great that my child could see them up close once.

Before the watching began, the buffet started all at once, but there weren't enough seats for all the passengers, and since I had children with me, it was quite a hassle. After the meal, there was no rotation, and we had to sit for a long time until the watching started, which made it difficult to enjoy our meal at all. I wish they had ensured enough seating for the number of passengers.

The crew members were all kind and made us feel comfortable.

潮吹きやヒレ、背中が見えた程度でしたが、一度至近距離で子供も見ることができよかったです。
ウォッチング前にいっせいにブュッフェが始まりますが、乗客全員が座れる席がなく、しかも子連れだったので困りました。
食事が終わったら次々と回転することもなく、ウォッチングが始まるまでずっと座っているところもあり、全然ゆっくり食事ができませんでした。
乗客人数の座席を確保された状態にしてほしかったです。
クルーの方たちはみんな親切で気持ちよかったです。

First, regarding the whales, they appeared around the boat multiple times. The loud sound of "pshhuu!!" when they come up from the sea was incredible. I was thrilled to see them right in front of me. However, by the time I pressed the camera shutter, they were gone, making it quite difficult to capture a photo.

The atmosphere inside the boat was relaxed and had a luxurious feel. There were breads, hams to put in the bread, and vegetables. Other offerings included fruits and cookies. Drinks available were coffee and green tea. It was simple, but sufficient.

At the end of the tour, there was a sale of photos taken before boarding the boat and pictures of the whales we actually saw. Inside the boat, there was always live guitar performances. The song selection was good, and I really enjoyed it. I truly felt it was a worthwhile tour!

However, one downside was that the announcements when the whales appeared were made in English first, followed by Japanese. It can't be helped, but by the time the Japanese announcement was made, the whales were already gone.

まず目的のクジラですが、何度も船の周りに現れてくれました。
海の上にでてくるときの、プシュー！！という大きな音。
実際に目の前で見ることができて感激でした。
ただ、カメラのシャッターを押すころにはいなくなってしまって、
写真に撮るのは至難の業かと思われます。

船内もゆったりとした雰囲気でラグジュアリー感もありました。
パンや、パンにはさむハム類、野菜など。
他はフルーツ、クッキー。
飲み物はコーヒー、緑茶。
簡単ではありますが十分です。

ツアーの最後に、船に乗る前に撮った写真と、実際に見たくじらの写真の
販売があります。
船内は常に、ギターの弾き語りの生演奏つき。
選曲もよく、とても楽しめました。
参加してよかった！と心から思えるツアーでした。

ただひとつ難を挙げますと、クジラが出現したときのアナウンスが
英語で行われた後に日本語。仕方ないのですが・・。
日本語の案内が話されているときはすでにクジラはいません。

We participated in the limited-time family campaign with our family of four. We were able to see the whale's spout and tail while enjoying a relaxing time in the second-floor seats. It was a fun experience.

While our family was fine, some members of a nearby family were seasick and were taking medication, so I think it's a good idea to prepare for seasickness.

期間限定ファミリーキャンペーンにつられ、家族4人で参加しました。クジラの潮吹き、尾びれなどが見え、2階席でゆったり過ごしながら、楽しい時間を過ごせました。
私達家族は大丈夫でしたが、近くにいらしたご家族の何人かが船酔いをされ薬を飲んでいらしたので、船酔い対策はしておいた方が良いかと思います。

We had a great time on the sunset cruise, we got some awesome photos, met really cool people and did something we wouldn't normally do!
Only tips I would give is to go to the toilet first (the one on board is cramped and it can get bumpy, so more room for unlimited drinks) and make sure you check the meeting location carefully first because there's 2 Outrigger hotels and that confused us alot.

I saw a lot of whales. However, the time they are visible is short, and it's difficult to know where to spot them, so it's hard to take photos.

クジラが沢山見えました。ただ、見える時間が短くどこで見えるかわからないので、写真におさめるのは難しいです。

I was struggling to find a birthday gift for my husband which coincidentally falls on Valentine’s Day. As we were traveling to Oahu the next week form Australia I purchased 2 tickets for the Sunset Cocktail Cruise online, printed them and put them in his birthday card. WOW! What a great success that was, we had a wonderful time.
Weather was perfect, service and cocktail supply was 4 star and I would recommend this Cruise to all. The captain and his mate were attentive and entertaining, we were lucky enough to see whales in their natural habitat along with the magical sunset we were promised.
This was my 8th trip to Waikiki but I had never been on this Catamaran Cruise previously. We would definitely go again.
It was so easy to purchase online, prepay and print the receipt it made the perfect gift from the other side of the Pacific. Mahalo.

My daughter really wanted to try surfing, so we signed up together for a challenge. I had done bodyboarding when I was younger, but this was my first time surfing. Thanks to the instructor's great teaching, I was able to ride the waves in no time. At 57 years old, I usually don't do any sports, but I didn't feel tired or sore, and I made some wonderful memories. Additionally, they burned the photos from the lesson onto a CD and even gave us T-shirts, so I'm really glad I participated. I hope to join again next year at a higher level.

娘がどうしてもサーフィンをしたいと言うので、２人で申し込みチャレンジしました。私は若いころボディボードをしていましたが、サーフィンは初めてでしたが、インストラクターの教え方が良かったおかげで、あっという間に、波に乗れました。57歳で普段何もスポーツをしてませんでしたが、疲れ、筋肉痛もなく、楽しい思い出ができました、。また、レッスン中の写真をＣＤＲに焼付して頂いたり、Ｔシャツまで頂き、本当に参加して良かった。来年はレベルアップした形で参加したいと思います。

It was my first time surfing, and I was very satisfied! From the pickup to the way of riding the waves, I received thorough support, which allowed me to ride with confidence! Even as a complete beginner, I was able to do it, and since they teach in Japanese, those who are not confident in their language skills need not worry!

The weather was cloudy, but it wasn't too cold, and they also lent me a rash guard and shoes, making it comfortable! However, I got seasick from the waves, so I recommend that those who are prone to motion sickness take some medication before going.

They also took photos, creating wonderful memories of Hawaii. Thank you very much!

初めてのサーフィンでしたが大変満足でした！
送迎から、波の乗り方まで丁寧にサポートしてもらえて、安心して乗ることができました！
本当に初心者でも乗れましたし、日本語でも教えてくださるので語学力に自信がない方も心配はいらないと思います！

天候は曇り空でしたが、寒すぎることもなく、またラッシュガードやシューズも貸していただけるので快適でした！ただ、私は波に酔ってしまったので、酔いやすい方は酔い止めを飲んでいかれることをオススメします。

写真も撮って下さり、楽しいハワイの思い出になりました。
ありがとうございました！

I couldn't participate in the tour I wanted to join, so I urgently signed up for this one, and it was pretty good. My friend and I joked, "Aren't we going to ride something like a North Korean boat?" but it turned out to be a luxurious ship where we could enjoy a buffet. During our time, they served hamburgers, and we could add vegetables, cheese, and meat as we liked. There were also cookies and fruit. It felt like a light meal, but since eating too much can cause seasickness, it might have been just right.

However, on the day we went (February 18), it was cloudy, then rainy, with strong winds and cold! Even when we took refuge inside the ship, the air conditioning was blasting, making it even colder. I would have appreciated it if they had offered jackets or blankets for rent.

We saw whales three times. I only saw the tail fin, but my friend, who was feeling seasick, said they saw a breach. We also witnessed a pod of dolphins jumping over the waves, which was breathtaking.

I’m glad I could go during the limited period for whale watching. However, it was really cold and uncomfortable, so I hope that can be improved. Thank you for the wonderful memories.

行きたかったツアーに参加できなくなり、至急申し込んだツアーですが、まあまあ良かったです。
同行した友人と「北〇鮮のボートみたいなのに乗るんじゃ？」と話していましたが、豪華な船で、バイキングも食べられました。私たちの時はハンバーガーで、野菜やチーズや肉を好きなように挟めました。あとはクッキーと果物。軽食と言った感じですが、あまり食べ過ぎると船酔いするので、ちょうどいいかもしれません。
しかし、行った日（2月18日）は曇りのち雨で風も強く寒かった！船内に避難するもクーラーガンガンで更に寒かったです。上着やひざ掛けの貸し出しがあれば嬉しかったです。
クジラは3回見られました。私は尾びれだけでしたが、船酔いでつぶれていた友人は、バックジャンプが見られたとのこと。また、イルカの群れが波の上をジャンプしているのも見られて感動しました。
ホエールウォッチングができる期間は限られているということで、この時期に行けて良かったです。
ただ、本当に寒くて不快だったので、それだけ改善していただければと思います。楽しい思い出をありがとうございました。

There was absolutely no Japanese guide, and I could only understand a little of what was being said, but that doesn't really matter. Even without words, it's okay. When everyone sang the birthday song for the cute girl, it was the best.

日本語ガイドなんて一切なく、なーにいってるのか、ちょっとしかわからなかったけど、そんなこの、どうでもいい。言葉なくても、大丈夫。かわいい女の子のお誕生日のお歌を全員で歌ったときは、最高でした。

There were only two Japanese groups on this day, and the rest were international tourists. You can see the streets of Waikiki from angles that are usually not visible. It was cloudy, so I didn't feel it much, but when it's sunny, the sunlight can be quite strong, so it would be good to have a hat, sunglasses, and sunscreen. Also, if you're worried about seasickness, it's better to take some medication beforehand. (There were about two people who got sick, haha.) If you go in the morning, you can return by early afternoon, making it easy to plan your schedule afterward and allowing for a relaxing time, which was really nice.

日本人は少なめでこの日も2組のみであとは海外の観光客でした。
普段見れないところからのワイキキの街並みを見ることができます。
曇りだったためあまり感じませんでしたが、晴れていると日差しがかなりくるので帽子やサングラス・日焼け止めがあったほうがよさそう。あと、船酔いが心配な方は酔い止めは飲んでおいたほうがよさそうです。
(2名ほどリバースしてました笑)
午前中からならお昼過ぎにはもどってこれるのでその後の予定も組みやすくのんびりと過ごせとてもよかったです。

The day after arriving in Hawaii, I participated in a tour. The boat was three stories high, with the second floor being an indoor area with snacks and sofas, and the third floor being an open area with just tables and chairs. Even though I boarded a bit late, there were relatively many seats available on the second floor, but the air conditioning was too strong, so I moved to the open area on the third floor. There was also coffee, tea, and water available for self-service.

After departing, we quickly moved to the points of interest, visiting several spots. At first, it took a while for anything to appear, and I thought it might be a disappointing day, but then I heard cheers from a group of foreigners and saw a spout and a tail! After that, the whales appeared several times, and all the passengers gathered on one side to take pictures. Eventually, it was time to return to the port.

I was able to see the beautiful blue ocean and whales for the first time, and personally, I was very satisfied with the tour!

While moving at high speed, the boat swayed quite a bit, so I recommend bringing motion sickness medication for those who are prone to seasickness. Also, the day I participated was mostly clear with hardly any clouds, but even so, the wind and air conditioning indoors made it a bit chilly, so having a light jacket that you can put on quickly would be a good idea.

ハワイに到着した日の次の日に参加しました。
船は３階建ての船で、2階は軽食やソファーが置いてある屋内タイプ、3階は机や椅子があるだけのオープンタイプの船でした。
乗船したのが遅めでも2階は比較的席が空いてましたが、空調が強すぎたんで3階のオープンタイプの階へ。
ここにもコーヒー、紅茶、お水は置いてあったんでセルフサービスでいただきました。
出航してしばらくはポイントまで高速で移動し、いくつかあるポイントを回る感じでした。
はじめはなかなか現れず、もしかしたらはずれの日かなぁって思っていたら、外国人グループの歓声とその方角を見ると潮吹きと尾びれが！！
その後もたびたび現れては乗客みんなが片側に集まってカメラを構えるのが何度か続き、時間になって港に戻りました。
綺麗な青い海と初めて鯨を見ることができ、個人的には大満足のツアーでした♪

高速移動中は船がかなり揺れるんで酔いやすい人は酔い止めを持参することをおすすめします。
あと参加した日は雲がほとんどない快晴でしたが、それでも移動中の風や空調のきいた屋内は肌寒いので、すぐにはおれる上着があるといいと思います。
