All Reviews for Waikiki Beach

This was an awesome trip. We had quite some waves on the ocean but the boat felt save all the time.
The people are nice. Good drinks.
We had a great sun set.

The crew for this catamaran was awesome, super friendly and great people to talk to my wife and I truly enjoyed ourself. I would say we had one of the best seats to watch the fireworks

Unfortunately, the cloudy sky meant we couldn't see the sunset at all, which was disappointing. However, the staff were very friendly to families, and it was a lively and fun atmosphere, especially with tourists from Europe and America. I was a bit taken aback by two women speaking in Kansai dialect who were dancing wildly with strange energy... I would like to try again on a day with better weather.

あいにくの曇り空でサンセットが全く見れず残念でした。
ただ、スタッフは家族連れにも親切で欧米からの観光客を中心にわいわい楽しくといった感じで良かったです。関西弁の女性二人が変なテンションで踊り狂っていたのにはちょっと引きましたが。。。
今度は天気の良い日に再度トライしたいと思います。

It seems early to see it in November, but I jumped from a distance where I could see it with the naked eye. When I looked in the direction the staff pointed, I jumped. The sunset and Mai Tai were wonderful. There are few Japanese people, so it feels like being abroad.

１１月に見れるなんて早いらしいですが、遠くでしたが肉眼で見えるくらいのところでジャンプしました。スタッフは指さした方向を見たら、
跳ねました。夕日もマイタイも素晴らしい。
日本人は少ないので外国に来たって感じですよ。

Access to Waikiki Beach is excellent for conducting activities, but my satisfaction was very low for the following reasons:

- Minimal coaching: Once in the water, the instructions were limited to "paddle paddle! Stand up." There were two coaches for a group of six, but one of them spent most of the time chatting with a young woman.
- Risk of injury from contact with coral reefs: The activity location has scattered coral reefs, some of which rise close to the water's surface. While I didn't sustain serious injuries, I accidentally fell off the board and suffered bruises and scrapes on my feet, and I also scraped my fingers while paddling.
- It may vary by day, but on the day I participated, there were almost no waves. I felt like I was being pushed from behind to ride low waves.

For these reasons, I strongly recommend either renting a board to enjoy on your own or taking lessons at a place like Hawaiian Fire Surf School, which offers excellent instruction and attention.

ワイキキビーチで実施するためアクセスは優れているのですが、以下の点で満足度は非常に低いものでした。
・コーチングは基本なし:海に入ってからは「パドルパドル！立って」程度、集団レッスンでしたので6人に対して2人のコーチがつきましたが、うち1人は若い女性につきっきりでお喋りばかりしていました。
・サンゴ礁への接触による怪我の恐れあり:実施場所はサンゴ礁が点在しており、場所によっては海面付近まで隆起しています。大事には至っていませんが、誤ってボードから落ちてしまい足に打撲や擦り傷を負い、またパドリング時には手の指をすりむきました。
・日によるのかもしれませんが、私が参加した日はほとんど波がありませんでした。後ろからボードを押されて無理やり低い波に乗ったという印象です。

上記の理由から、自身でボードを借りて自力で楽しむか、またはHawaiian Fire Surf Schoolのような場所、指導の丁寧さともに優れた所でレッスンを受講されることを強くおすすめします。

I am satisfied with this for the price. It goes both towards Diamond Head and Pearl Harbor. There’s no sailing with a slope like a race, but it feels great to ride while being hit by the waves.

これ、価格の割に満足できます。ダイヤモンドヘッド方面へもパールハーバー方面にも両方行きます。レースのような傾斜をつけて走る航行はないけど、波を受けながら走り超気持ちいい。

This was my first time participating this summer. The meeting place was a bit hard to find, and the waiting time was a little long, but I am satisfied with the content for this price! Since it was a Friday, I was able to see the fireworks from the boat! There were many foreign guests on board, which added to the atmosphere, and we all had a great time together! The duration was longer than I expected, and after the fireworks, I was able to enjoy the night view of Waikiki! I would like to participate during sunset next time!

今夏初めての参加でした。
集合場所が少し分かりにくかったのと、待ち時間が少し長かったですが、このお値段でこの内容には満足です！
今回はちょうど金曜日だったので、船から花火を見ることが出来ました！
船内は外国人のお客さんが多く、雰囲気もあって、皆んなで盛り上がりとっても楽しい時間を過ごせました！
所要時間も思っていたより長く、花火が終わった後もワイキキの夜景を堪能出来ました！
次はサンセットの時間に参加したいですね！

The funniest crew ever! They made sure everyone had a good time and being in the splash zone was a blast. Amazing view of Diamond Head and more. So much room to move around onboard and the entire cruise was just overall fun and relaxing!

I have visited Hawaii many times, but this was my first experience watching fireworks from the ocean! It was incredibly beautiful. I can't drink alcohol, but my friends and their kids had a great time participating. It even rained during the fireworks, but it was still amazing.

何度もハワイを訪問していますが、今回初の体験。海から見る花火！最高にきれいでした。お酒は飲めない私ですが、友人親子はとても楽しんで参加していました。花火に合わせ雨が降ったのですが、それでも最高でした。

Great time! Very professional staff and amazing experience! Would recommend again!

This was a lot of fun, and staff were super friendly! Watching the sun set on the water was a great experience. Only tiny issue was there was only one cocktail, and it was premade. But there was heaps of other options to choose from.

The dolphin tour we initially planned was suddenly canceled three days before departure, so I quickly searched online and found this tour. There were similar sailing options, but since we were staying at Hilton Hawaiian Village, we decided on this tour. I felt reassured that VELTRA confirmed the reservation at the time of booking.

On the day of the tour, it rained in the morning... I thought it might get canceled, but by the afternoon, the rain cleared, and we departed from the beach as scheduled! Once we were out at sea, we set the sails and let the wind and waves guide us... At this point, the refreshing feeling was indescribable! The view from the sea of Waikiki and Diamond Head was also amazing. There was only one other family besides us participating, so we were able to take our time taking photos and videos on board. The taste of beer on the water was the best.

The captain and staff were very friendly, and they provided explanations in Japanese on board.

We thoroughly enjoyed the one-hour sailing. We didn't see any dolphins, but we were very satisfied. (o^－^o)

当初予定していたドルフィンツアーが出発3日前に突然の中止になり 急遽ネット検索し、このツアーにたどり着きました。同じ様なセーリングもあったのですが ヒルトンハワイアンビレッジに宿泊していたのでこのツアーに決めました。VELTRAは申し込と同時に予約確定か否かが分かるので安心しました。

当日は朝から雨･･これはcancelになるかと思いきや午後には雨も上り予定通りビーチから出発❗沖に出ると帆を張り風任せ 波任せ･･ここまでくると何とも言えない爽快感ﾃﾞｽ❗海から見るワイキキからダイヤモンドヘッド迄の景色も素晴らしかった。参加者は私達の他にファミリーが1組のみ･･船上ではゆったり写真や動画を撮る事が出来ました。海上でのビールの味も最高
キャプテンを始めstaffはとてもフレンドリー 船上では 日本語で説明してくれます。

1時間のセーリングを満喫しました。イルカは見られなかったけど大満足しました。(o^－^o)

We had a fantastic time. The crew were professinal and friendly. There was a good mix of people. And the views were beautiful.

I had the best experience watching a beautiful sunset over the sea while enjoying a drink. The price was also very reasonable, which was great.

すごく綺麗な夕日をお酒のみながら海の上で見るという最高な体験をさせてもらいました。
値段も、リーズナブルですごくよかったです。

I was a bit anxious because the explanation was only in English, and there were few Japanese participants, but I wanted to experience the sunset cruise on a catamaran that you can't enjoy on a large dinner cruise, so I joined! Along with the lively crew and other passengers, I enjoyed cocktails while taking in the beautiful sea! I was able to spend a wonderful time in Hawaii, admiring the luxurious views from blue to sunset and then to the night scenery! Actually, we were also visiting Waikiki for our son's wedding, and on that day, there was a newlywed couple from abroad on board as well, which added to the happy atmosphere and made it the best moment!

説明が英語のみということで、日本人の参加は少なく、不安でしたが、大きなディナークルーズでは味わえないカタマランのサンセットクルーズに乗りたかったので参加！
ノリノリのクルーと乗船客に交じって、カクテルを飲みながら、美しい海を満喫しました！青から、夕陽、そして夜景と贅沢な景色を眺めながら、ハワイの素敵な時間を過ごすことができました！実は私たちも息子の結婚式でワイキキを訪れていたのですが、ちょうどこの日は外国人の新婚カップルも同乗してて、幸せ気分もいただいて最高のひと時でした！

This was a great experience, the crew was amazing and very knowledgeable!

Our whole family thoroughly enjoyed this adventure... crew and in particular the host were fabulous .... definite must do whilst in Waikiki !!!!

I was worried about the rocking since it was a yacht, but the weather was very calm that day, and the pregnant woman who joined us was able to board safely. The staff were kind, taking photos for us and interacting with other guests, making it a fun time. We also got to see a beautiful sunset, and we were able to see Diamond Head up close, which made me very satisfied!

ヨットということで揺れが心配でしたがこの日はとても穏やかで一緒に行った妊婦も無事乗船できました。スタッフのかたも優しく写真をとってくださったり、ほかのお客さんと交流したり楽しいじかんでした。また夕日もきれいにみれましたし、ダイヤモンドヘッドも間近でみることができ、大変満足しました！

The sunset, which allows you to enjoy the changing colors of the sky, was very beautiful, and seeing Waikiki from the sea was refreshing. The sunset cruise offers both the daytime scenery and the sparkling night view. There was little rocking of the boat, so even I, who am sensitive to motion, was able to enjoy it comfortably. In addition to unlimited Mai Tais, there was also champagne available!

空の色の変化を楽しめるサンセットもとてもキレイでしたが、海から見るワイキキも新鮮でした。サンセットクルーズは昼間の景色とキラキラ夜景の両方が漫喫出来ます。船の揺れも少なく、船に弱い私も快適に楽しめました♪マイタイ飲み放題の他にもシャンパンもありましたよ♪

I have taken two lessons. Instructor is helpful and patient. He can help you familiar with the steps and assist for your surfing. I have great experience in this school. And now I'm a big fan of surfing, thanks to the teachings.

I used this service on the day I arrived in Hawaii. The staff were all very friendly and cheerful. When I tried to take a selfie, a staff member offered to take a photo for me. However, I felt that the variety of dishes at the buffet was a bit lacking, so I rated it one star lower. The taste was just okay. After finishing the meal, we moved to the upper floor to watch the sunset.

There wasn't much time between the meal and the sunset, and we had quite a bit of time to spare from sunset until we disembarked, but we enjoyed a wonderful time watching live performances and hula!

ハワイに到着した日に利用しました。
スタッフの方はニコニコ、とても感じの良い方達ばかりでした。
自撮りしようとしたら、写真撮りましょうか？とスタッフの方から声を掛けてくれました。
ただ、ビュッフェの品数が少し物足りなかったので☆−1です。味はまぁ、こんなものかなと行った感じです。
お食事が終わってから上の階へ移動し、サンセットを見ました。

食事〜サンセットまであまり時間がなく、日没〜船を降りるまで割と時間を持て余しましたが、生演奏やフラを見れて素敵な時間を過ごせました！

I boarded with my aunts who are nearly 80 years old. I was worried about whether it would be okay for seniors, so I hesitated to sign up, but there was no severe rocking, and it was a relaxed cruise. The view of Honolulu from the sea was refreshing, and the breeze felt nice. I'm glad I went, but I really wish we could have gone a bit further out where dolphins might be.

80近い叔母たちと乗船しました。高齢者も大丈夫か不安で申し込みを迷ってましたが、激しい揺れもなく、ゆったりとしたクルーズでした。海からホノルルの景色が新鮮で風も気持ちよく、乗って良かったですが、もうちょっとほんとにイルカがいそうな沖まで行きたかったな。

It's quite different to see the Island from the sky.

I wanted to see the fireworks, so I went on Friday night. It was simply the best! I definitely think you should go! Next time, I want to ride during the day and in the evening. I highly recommend it!!!!

花火を観たくて金曜日の夜にしました。
ただただ最高です！
絶対乗るべきだと思います！
次は昼と夕方乗りたいと思います。
おすすめです！！！！

Absolutely amazing experience to swim with turtles. Crew were outstanding and fab music. A must when you visit Waikiki

We had a really nice time. Saw some sea turtles and some fish. Unfortunately it was windy and a boat of scuba divers scared off the fish and turtles or should I say made it hard to keep up with them. The crew was completely awesome. The sail to the other side of Diamond Head was amazing. We had a really good time.

We were on our honeymoon and had a really great time. I would give it 4.5 stars but that wasn't an option so they got 5 because it was better than 4. Food was good and entertainment was excellent. Pictures and drinks were pricey but I guess that's expected.

I couldn't see sea turtles on the tour, but I was very satisfied to see many here. If you can swim, please consider renting or bringing your own fins. It seems to be a diving spot, and if you can dive to about 5 to 6 meters, you can see a variety of colorful fish. The area near the surface is full of black fish, so if you're confident in your swimming, give it a try. The staff was friendly, which was great.

海亀を見るツアーで見れなかったのですが、こちらで、いっぱい見れて大満足です。泳げる方は、是非フィンをレンタルもしくは、持参して下さい。ダイビングスポットらしく、5〜6m潜れれば、色とりどりの魚が見れます。海面付近は黒い魚だらけなので、泳ぎに自信のある人はチャレンジしてみて下さい。スタッフもフレンドリーな感じで良かったです。

I go to Hawaii twice a year and always ride on the first day, but it's amazing no matter when you ride!

The sunset is the best!!!

年に２回ハワイに行き必ず初日に乗りますが
いつ乗っても最高です！！

サンセットが最高！！！

We participated as a family of four, and while the food was delicious, I felt it was a bit expensive for the content of the dishes. Also, the venue was hard to find, and it took a while to reach the elevator! The show was in the front row, so it was powerful and truly impressive. I still enjoy watching the video. My grandchild was thrilled to have their favorite turtle tattooed on their arm. We had a wonderful night in Hawaii!

家族４人で参加しましたが、美味しかったのですが　あのお料理の内容だと、少し高いように思いました。又会場がわかりにくくエレベーターに着くまで時間がかかりました！
ショーは最前列だったので　迫力があって素晴らしく感激しました。
いまでもビデオを見て楽しんでいます。孫が腕に大好きな亀のタッーを書いてもらい
大喜びでした。ハワイのステキな夜を過ごさせて頂きました！！
