All Reviews for Waikiki Beach

I can't dive, but I wanted to see the underwater world, so I participated. (10 AM session: Japanese guide available)

During the transfer to the submarine on the shuttle boat, there was an announcement saying, "It will be rocky today," but it was fine. (My mother, who was with me, got a little seasick.) If you're worried about seasickness, it might be a good idea to take medication in advance. (Medication is also available for purchase on the shuttle boat.)

The inside of the submarine was more spacious than I expected, and it was comfortable without feeling cramped. (The floor might be a bit cold?) Unfortunately, we didn't see any sea turtles, but we were able to see many fish living among the reefs, the wreckage of an airplane, and a sunken ship. Even my mother, who got seasick, was moved by watching the fish swim around.

I'm glad I participated in this tour! I will definitely sign up again when I travel to Hawaii!

ダイビングは出来ないけど、海の中が見たくて参加しました。（１０時の回：日本語でのガイド有り）

シャトルボートで潜水艦まで移動の際「今日は揺れます」とアナウンスがありましたが、大丈夫でした。（同行の母は軽く酔ってしまいましたが）
船酔いに心配な方は、前もって薬を服用した方が良いかもしれません。（薬はシャトルボート内でも販売しています）

潜水艦内は思っていたより狭くなく、圧迫感もなく快適でした。（足元が少し寒いかも？）
残念ながら海ガメは見れませんでしたが、漁礁、飛行機の残骸、難破船を棲み家にしている沢山の魚たちを見る事ができました。船酔いしてしまった母も魚が海中を動き回る様子を見て感動していました。

このツアーに参加して良かったです！
またハワイ旅行する際には必ず申し込みます！

These guys are pro! Had an awesome dive, saw tons of fish, the weather was perfect, I couldn't ask for more. Thanks so Aaron and crew for making our experience truly amazing.

I would like to thank our hawaii activities director ... We thought we had made reservations for Tuesday, June 8, but it turned out that I had made the reservation for Monday, June 7. They came to pick us up at our hotel on Monday, and we weren't ready. I couldn't believe that I had made such a mistake ... I thought I had been really careful to make sure that something like that hadn't happened ... but, I DID make the mistake. The Oahu Cruise people were very understanding, and told me that they would just pick us up on Tuesday. I then called our hawaii activities director and told her about the mistake I had made. She said that there was not a problem, no extra fee, and that she would reschedule me for Tuesday, and fax me a new voucher to our hotel. Talk about service! She was GREAT! The voucher was at our hotel in minutes!

Also, I need to say that this cruise is EXCELLENT! The food was EXCELLENT, and the entertainment was WONDERFUL!

Thanks for everything! We had a GREAT

I participated with my parents in their 70s and my family, a total of six people. I was worried about my father, as he has weak legs, when boarding the submarine, but my husband supported him, and he was able to get on. We were also able to see a large sea turtle, and my 4-year-old son was very happy. The staff were very kind, and it became a wonderful memory.

70代の両親と家族、全部で6人で参加しました。父が足が弱いので、潜水艦に乗り込む時が心配でしたが、主人がサポートして、乗り込むことが出来ました。大きな海亀も見ることが出来、4才の息子も大喜びでした。スタッフの方もとても親切にしてくださり、楽しい思い出になりました。

I participated with my middle school daughter and our family of three. I was quite worried about our physical stamina, but once we decided to join, the instructions were very kind and easy to understand, which quickly dispelled my anxiety. It was definitely a plus that everything was conducted in Japanese. Our whole family was able to stand on the board, and we even had a video taken. It became a wonderful memory for our family.

中学生の娘と家族３人で参加しました。
体力的にも、だいぶ心配がありましたが、
思い切って参加してみると、とても親切にわかりやすく
説明していただけて、不安もすぐに吹き飛びました。
やはり、日本語で出来たのが良かったです。
家族全員ボードに立つことができ、ビデオも撮影してもらえました。家族の良い思い出になりました。

I was worried because I don't speak much English, but when I participated, the staff kindly served drinks, the view was amazing, and I had a wonderful experience. My family was the only Japanese there.

英語があまり出来ないので心配でしたが、
参加してみると、スタッフの方が親切に飲み物を出して下さり、景色も最高で、とても素敵な経験をすることが出来ました。日本人は、私たちの家族だけでした。

This was a great way to end our holiday. Very tastefully done and orchestrated. Service, food, entertainment, all excellent. No complaints at all. Recommend highly to anyone.

In the morning, I participated in a session with Japanese support. It seems that the waves were rough that day, and many people experienced seasickness on the boat ride to the submarine. However, once we submerged, the swaying eased, and I was able to observe the precious ecosystem off the coast of Waikiki, which was satisfying.

午前、日本語対応の回に参加しました。当日は波が荒かったようで、行きの船から潜水艦へ乗り込むまでに船酔いに遇われた方が多かったようです。それでも海中に潜れば揺れは和らぎ、ワイキキ沖の貴重な生態系を観察することができ、満足です。

Ms. Yuka was an excellent masseuse. I usually get massages 1~2/month in Seattle, but she exceeded my expectations!!!

The food and entertainment was great.

My lomilomi massage was just what I needed - all my sore spots got attention and I came away feeling soothed & energized. Lovely atmosphere and friendly, talented therapist!

I am learning hula, so I definitely wanted to see an authentic hula and Polynesian show, so I made a reservation☆

The dance was sexy, elegant, and cool, but I felt like the wait time before the show started was a bit long...

I wondered if it could be done with a shorter wait time.

私はフラを習っているので、是非一度本場のフラ＆ポリネシアンショーを見たくて予約しました☆

ダンスはセクシー＆優雅＆かっこよかったですが、ショーが始まるまでにの時間が長かったように感じます。。

もう少し待ち時間なくできないのかと思いました。

This was a very enjoyable cruise of Oahu's sunset. We enjoyed the food and entertainment. My husband and I saw flying fish which to us was icing on the cake. The sunset was amazing to watch and the staff was extremely nice and helpful. The waiter showed us tricks on disassembling our lobster, which was nice, I didn't want to make a mess. I think the Navatek is the best because of the smoothness and to be able to go into open waters and still remain smooth. This is a wonderful cruise and a great way to end an evening.

This was a blast! Also, the crew knows exactly where to go to find tu
rtles - we saw at LEAST a dozen! Then, after everyone was finished snorkeling we went for a sail and had cocktails (the Onolicious is awesome). The crew was wonderful - Thanks Captain John & Rabbit!!!

It is a lot of fun and a perfect way to end the day. The crew really makes this trip worth while - Captain John and Rabbit were AWESOME!!!

The charm of this tour departing from Outrigger Reef on the Beach is that it starts from Waikiki Beach. The morning meeting time is early, but I think it's still manageable.

On the day of the tour, it was windy and the waves were high, but we were able to see various fish and even sea turtles while snorkeling. Unfortunately, we didn't encounter any dolphins. Still, it was a relaxing and enjoyable tour.

Also, when we participated, there were zero Japanese people. It's a rare tour where you can truly feel like you're on an overseas trip. The explanations were in English and included some humor, which I couldn't fully understand, but the captain was kind enough to explain slowly using just a few words for us.

Since the tour ends in the morning, you can participate in other tours, go shopping, or relax on the beach in the afternoon, making it a meaningful way to spend the day.

It was a recommended tour for going with friends and having a great time together.

アウトリガー・リーフ・オン・ザ・ビーチより出るこのツアーの魅力はワイキキビーチから出発ということです。
朝の集合時間は早いですが、それでも楽だと思います。

当日は風が強くて波も高かったですが、シュノーケリングでは色んな魚、ウミガメにも会えました。
残念なのは、イルカに遭遇できなかったこと。
それでものんびり楽しめるツアーです。

また、私たちが参加した時は日本人ゼロ。
「海外旅行に来た」と味わえる珍しいツアーです。
説明なども英語で笑いを取っていたようですが、理解できなかったりもしましたが、キャプテンは私たちには単語のみでゆっくり説明してくれる親切な方でした。

午前中に終わるツアーなので、午後からは他のツアーに参加したり、ショッピングに行ったり、ビーチでのんびりしたりもできるので、1日を有意義に使えると思います。

友達みんなでワイワイ行くのにオススメのツアーでした。

Well worth the price. Most relaxing massage we have ever had, will definately come back next year. The hot stones were amazing.

Surfing was awesome!!! It was really great. However, I was sore all over for a week afterward...

サーフィンさいこーーーーー！！！
とてもよかったです。
けど、終わった後一週間は全身筋肉痛。。。

It was a more enjoyable cruise than I imagined.
They offered special cocktails, beer, wine, champagne, and free drinks. (There were some foreigners who brought snacks, and it might be even more fun if there were some light snacks available.)
In April, the sunset is at 7 PM! I thought that meant we wouldn't be able to see the sunset at the scheduled time, but they adjusted the return time properly, allowing us to enjoy nearly two hours of cruising with a departure at 5:30 PM and return at 7:30 PM!
It sways more than expected, so if you are prone to seasickness, it might be a good idea to take some medication.
There were only five of us Japanese on board, and all the safety instructions (like areas to avoid) were given in English, which I couldn't catch, so I thought it would be nice if they provided a paper in Japanese at the beginning.
There was a lot of lively music playing, and before I knew it, even my father started dancing!

For this price, the fun with free drinks is quite a good value! I highly recommend it!

想像以上に楽しいクルーズでした。
特製カクテル、ビール、ワイン、シャンパンと
フリードリンク。（おつまみ持参の外国人がいて、
何かちょっとしたスナック菓子とかあるとより楽しいかも）
４月の日の入りは、１９時！これだと、スケジュールにあった時間ではなく、サンセットがうまく見れないのかと
思いきや、ちゃんと戻りの時間を調整してくれていて、
１７：３０出港、１９：３０戻りといった具合に
２時間近くクルージングを楽しめました！
思いのほか揺れるので、船酔いする方は、何か薬を飲んだ
方がいいかもしれません。
私達家族５人しか日本人がおらず、船上での注意事項
（踏み入れちゃいけない場所等の説明があったらしい）も
全て英語で、聞き取れなかったので、最初に日本語で
紙でも渡してくださるといいのでは。。。と思いました。
ノリがいい音楽がたくさんかかり、
気がつけば、父まで踊りだす始末！

この価格で、フリードリンクであの楽しさは、かなりコスパいいですよ！オススメです！

The artificial reefs are arranged to attract fish properly, and I was able to see various fish and sea turtles without getting bored.

ちゃんと魚が集まるように、漁礁が配置されており、飽きることなくいろんな魚や海ガメが見れました。

My six year old daughter surfed! We all did! We all got up and we have the videotape to prove it! This was our first activity on our first day and it set a trend of quality that stayed throughout our trip. These surfers are great teachers, assistants, advisors, helpers, and just plain nice.

I can't recommend anywhere more than this school.

The kids loved it. The ride out was fun, we saw several sea turtles swimming alongside the boat. The staff were friendly and helpful. My wife was slightly disappointed that the shipwrecks were all planted by Atlantis, but there were many more varieties of sealife than I expected. Overall, we all enjoyed it. This was our most expensive activity, but I am glad that we included it. We were on the larger, newer sub and the viewing ports were better than anticipated. My kids, ages 6 to 16, all enjoyed it.

I participated on the last day of my stay. I took part in various activities, but this one felt the most Hawaiian. The waves weren't too high, and the surface of the water felt very close, which was pleasant! The staff were also very kind and accommodating.

滞在中の最終日に参加しました。他のアクティビティにもいろいろ参加しましたが、一番ハワイらしかったような気がします。波もそれほど高くなくて、海面がすぐ近くに感じられて気持ちよかったです！スタッフの方にも親切に対応していただきました。

We gathered at 2:30 PM and departed at 3 PM! We were told to be punctual, but when I rushed in at 2:30, I got a Hawaiian response: "Oh, just sitting on the beach." It made me feel the pressure of time that Japanese people often experience.

We left a little after 3 PM and enjoyed about an hour of fun. At first, we started the engine to set sail, but once we were out at sea, we raised the sails and let the wind take us. The views of Hawaii were a different experience compared to the scenery seen from larger boats during whale watching. On the yacht, various cocktails and beers were available, and enjoying a drink while feeling the sun and wind was incredibly refreshing! We ventured further out than I expected and enjoyed a panoramic view of Honolulu. I definitely plan to participate again on my next visit to Hawaii.

Considering that the day after we boarded, the tsunami from the Chile earthquake prevented access to the sea, we were very lucky.

２時半集合、３時出発！　時間厳守！　との事でしたが、２時半に走って行ってら「あ。ビーチで座っていて~」　っとハワイアンな答えが！　ついつい時間に追われてしまっている日本人を感じてしまいました。
３時過ぎに出発し、約１時間程　楽しませてもらいました。
最初はエンジンをかけて出航していましたが、沖に出ると後は帆を張り風まかせ。　ホエールウォッチングなどの大きな船から見る景色とは、また一味違う　ハワイの景色を楽しませてもらいました。　ヨット内では、数種類のカクテル、ビールが販売されていて、太陽＆風　を感じながらのアルコールは格段に美味しい♪　思ってたよりも沖に出てホノルルの景色を一望して楽しませてもらいました。　次回のハワイ訪問時にも　是非　参加させてもらう予定です。
私たちが乗船した翌日は、チリ地震の津波で海に近寄れなかったのを考えると、とっても運が良かったのかも。

I did this the same day I arrived. The location is great if you're staying in Waikiki.

The massage was super relaxing. The value for the price is phenomenal. It was not at a big fancy spa but the massage was professionally done. Having limited experience with massages I was a bit surprised to find my back extremely sore for the next 2 days which isn't quite how I wanted to feel on vacation in Hawaii, but not being a massage expert I assume this would probably be true for any massage I would have gotten anywhere.

I also looked quite disheveled walking back to my hotel after the massage so I would suggest planning time after your massage to clean-up (fix hair/make-up and come out of the massage coma) before going somewhere else.

Diving to the real seabed in a submarine... There are no particularly dangerous aspects or training required, so it's safe for families with small children to participate. On the ferry to the dive point, we even encountered dolphins, which was a nice surprise. The view on the water is great too! 😊

本当の海底に潜水艦で潜る・・・
特に危険なことも、トレーニングもありませんので、小さな子供連れでも安心して参加できます。ダイブポイントまでの連絡船では偶然とはいえイルカ達にも遭遇しました。洋上の景色もグーですね＾＾

I wish the whales had been more active. Whales aside. The food was great. The boat was unique. The water was incredible. An all round good afternoon.

All the instructors made us feel comfortable and made sure we had fun and guaranteed we would all stand up. I signed up for the 2 hour class. The waves were knee to waist high and be prepared to do a lot of paddling. Everyone in my group stood up on the board. We all started posing for the camera while surfing. Very fun for all age groups. A school of dolphins showed up and jumping along with us. PERFECT DAY!!!!

The staff was magnificient. The cruise along the sunset waters of Oahu was romantic and picture perfect. Great entertainment and food. We had the 3 star VIP with Dom Perignon. Wonderful night. Perfect for couples. And if you are thinking of Proposing, this itinery is perfect. Alo'ha!!!!

The submarine was comfortable, but the children got seasick during the boat ride before boarding the submarine. The same happened on the way back. It might be better to take motion sickness medication in advance.

I participated in the Japanese language tour. The guide's Japanese was perfect, and the staff's response was good, making for a pleasant experience. However, compared to when I rode in Guam ten years ago, the clarity of the water and the number of fish were lacking. Those who have experienced it in Guam might feel a bit disappointed if they go with the same expectations. I think first-timers will enjoy it enough.

潜水艦は快適でしたが、潜水艦に乗る前の船での移動で子供たちが酔ってしまいました。帰りも同様。
事前に酔い止めを飲んでおいたほうが良いかもしれません。

日本語時間に乗りました。ガイドさんの日本語は完璧、スタッフの対応も良く、気持ちよく参加できました。
ただ、10年前にグアムで乗った時と比べると海の透明度も魚の数も負けてます。グアムで乗ったことある人は同じ感覚で行くとちょっとがっかりします。初めての人は十分楽しめると思います。
