I was worried when I read in the review that "you can get quite seasick," but I had so much fun that I forgot about any seasickness! On the same boat, there was another Japanese couple along with a family of eight Americans. Two American staff members were also on board. They communicated with us in broken Japanese, so it wasn't a problem even if you can't speak English. However, even though we didn't say we didn't want to get wet, everyone ended up staying dry. We were fully prepared to get wet, wearing our swimsuits... But in the end, it was so much fun that I was very satisfied! ★
レビューに「かなり船酔いする」とあり心配でしたが、船酔いも忘れるくらい楽しかったです!
同じ船には、私たちともう1組の日本人夫婦、あとアメリカ人の8人組の家族でした。そこに、アメリカ人スタッフ2人が乗ってくれます。スタッフさんは、片言の日本語で対応して下さるので、英語を話せなくても問題はありませんでした。
ただ、「濡れたくない」と言っていないのに全員濡れずに終わりました。私たちは濡れる気マンマンで水着を着ていたのですが・・・。
でも、結果的にはとっても楽しかったので大満足★です。

It was thrilling, fun, and absolutely amazing! The views of Honolulu, including Diamond Head, and speeding across the blue ocean on the boat felt incredible. There were many international guests on board, which really added to the excitement. Also, I had to change my schedule at the last minute due to a delay in immigration, but I was grateful for the quick communication from the local team.
スリリングで、楽しくて、最高でした!
ダイヤモンドヘッドなど、ホノルルを一望できる景色や、青い海をスピードある船で走るのは本当に気持ちいい。

I've done parasailing a few times, but it was my first time in a spot where I could see the city of Waikiki!
Seeing the city from the sea was refreshing and felt really nice☆☆☆
Even while waiting, the boat rides were exhilarating and enjoyable^^
However, the restroom at the dock was extremely dirty and had no door, which was disappointing.
Once on the boat, you'll need to cram your belongings at your feet, so it might be a good idea to bring a plastic bag that you don't mind getting dirty.
パラセーリングは何度かしたことがありますが、ワイキキの街が見渡せる場所では初めてでした!
海から見る街は新鮮でとても気持ちよかったです☆☆☆
待っている間もボートが走っているので爽快で気持ちいいです^^
ただ、船着き場のトイレがめちゃくちゃ汚いうえに扉がないです泣
ボートに乗ったら荷物も足下に詰め込む感じなので、ビニール製の汚れてもいいバッグを持っていった方がいいかも。

The last time I went to Hawaii, I saw parasailing from Waikiki Beach and thought I would try it the next time I came to Hawaii. There were 12 people in 6 groups on the boat, and we took turns. I watched the first person, so I had an idea of what to expect. When I flew, the deep blue ocean was right below me. It was a bit scary at first, but when I looked up, I could see the buildings of Waikiki all at once. Since I was in the middle of the order, after I landed, I was able to comfortably watch the others while enjoying the cruise vibe. We could return to the hotel before 11 AM, so we could make the most of our day. If you plan to bring a camera while flying, I recommend using a strap that you can hang around your neck.
前回ハワイに行った時にワイキキビーチからパラセールをしているのが見えて、次ハワイに来たらやってみようと思ってました。
船には6組12名で乗り順番です。最初の人のを見ていたので
イメージはつきました。飛んでみると真下には真っ青なブルーの海。ちょっと最初は怖かったのですが、顔を上げるとワイキキのビルが一望できました。順番は真ん中だったので降りてからは他の人のを余裕を持って見つつ、クルーズ気分も味わえました。11時前にはホテルにも戻れるので1日を有効に使えます。
飛んでる時にカメラを持参される方は首から
かけられるストラップをお勧めします。

We participated with two adults and two children. Despite taking motion sickness medication, the older child got seasick due to the strong rocking of the boat. Since the younger child is in the second grade and small, we ended up flying as a group of four, which was a pleasant surprise as I didn't expect our family of four to be able to fly together. It became a great memory.
大人2名子供2名で参加しました。船の揺れがすごく乗り物酔いの薬を飲んでいたにもかかわらず上の子が酔ってしまいました。
下の子が小学2年生で小さかったためか4人で飛ぶことになり、家族4人いっしょに飛べるとは思っていなかったのでよかったです。いい思い出になりました。

I participated on April 2, 2012. It was the last season for whale watching, but I was thrilled to see the whales spouting water. It was great that there were staff members who spoke Japanese. The location for boarding the boat and the check-in area were a bit difficult to find, so it would be better if that could be improved.

I was really excited to go to Hawaii, but I ended up feeling seasick due to lack of sleep and not feeling well. The waves were really strong, so it's definitely better to take anti-seasickness medication before going! The parasailing itself was a lot of fun, and the view from above was amazing! It does cost money, but we were able to buy the photos of ourselves up in the air, and it turned out to be a wonderful memory!

I decided on this option after seeing the photo of two people side by side. There were a total of seven participants: two elementary school students and five adults, along with another group of four Japanese families on board. At first, the two elementary school students and one adult flew together. I was impressed that three people could sit side by side, and the view from above was refreshing. I thought the remaining two adults would fly in pairs for two more turns, but unexpectedly, four of us flew together: three adults and one more person behind. The person in the back hardly had their face captured in the photo that was taken, and the view was said to be poor. Even though the wind conditions were the same, the next family that flew consisted of one average-sized adult and one child, and they flew in two separate turns. I felt quite disappointed.
横並びの2人乗りの写真をみてこちらに決めました。小学生二人と大人5人、計7人の参加、他には日本人の親子連れ4人の乗船でした。最初は小学生2人と大人1人で飛びました。3人横並びもできるんだ、と感心しながら上からの眺めは爽快、そして次は残る大人2人ずつ2回だろう思っていたら、なんと大人3人とその後ろにもう1人の4人で。後ろの1人はせっかくとってっもらった写真にもほとんど顔は写っていないし、眺めも悪かったそうです。風の様子は同じだったのに、次にとんだもう一組の家族連れは普通体型の大人1人と子供1人ずつで2回にわけて飛んでました。かなり残念に思いました。

This trolley not only allows you to get around the city but also takes you to Diamond Head and Kahala Mall, and I use it every year without fail. You can use it for four days on any day during your stay, and the ability to extend the days you don't use it adds to the value. Many of the drivers are entertaining, so you won't get bored.

I read in another review that someone got sick at the summit, and I completely understand how they felt. Even with motion sickness medication, it was quite tough. The foreigner I was with seemed fine.
If you can, having a pick-up service would be easier. It was quite a walk from Ala Moana Center, and there are many similar shops, so we ended up being a bit late.
By the way, both my friend and I are slim, so it was a bit dangerous, and we rode with the foreigner, making it three of us. Joining with a group of friends could be fun.
他のかたのレビューで頂上で吐いたと読みましたが、気持ちがよくわかりました。酔い止め飲んでもかなり辛かったー。一緒になった外国人さんは平気そうでした。

We had a beautiful afternoon for our parasailing adventure. The bus picked up right on time at the location specified. There were three of us in our party plus another mom and her son. Two crew members for a total of 7 on board the boat. The crew of 2 were very friendly and made us all feel at ease. Waters were pretty smooth considering our adventure started at 3pm.
The guys did have trouble deploying the parasail as the cords kept on tangling as they delpoyed it. Sort of made us feel a little uneasy, but you could tell the crew had experianced this issue before as it was quite windy and they did not get flustered at all. We all joked a little about the situation which made the time go by pretty quick. After the 3rd attempt, we were good to go.

A trolley came to pick us up and took us to the site, where we departed on a boat with ten people. Since we had to wait while others were flying, it was a good idea to take motion sickness medication beforehand.
I was unsure about the height difference, but I was glad I chose the 110-meter course. I probably wouldn't have noticed a difference even if it were increased by 20 meters...
Everyone made a slight splash in the sea. Some people only got their feet wet, but we ended up soaking our shirts. I heard that with a Dry Landing, you can avoid getting wet, but no one requested that.
Everyone bought an SD card for $30 for 40 photos. A total of 68 photos were taken, but the ones that were in focus...
It became a great memory.
トロリーで迎えが来て現地まで送ってくれ、10名ボートに乗って出発しました。他の人が飛んでいる間待つことになるので、酔い止めを飲んでおいたのは正解でした。
高さの違いで悩みましたが、110メートルコースでよかったです。おそらく、20メートル増やしても違いがわからない・・・
全員、海に少しだけ着水していました。足だけの人もいたけど、私たちはシャツまで濡れてしまいました。Dry Landing といえば、水に濡れずに済むみたいですが誰も頼んでいませんでした。
SDカードは40枚30ドルで全員買ってました。全部で68枚撮られていたけど、ピントが合ってるのは・・・

The service is only available for foreigners except during the document submission before boarding. After boarding, they seem to have memorized the explanation in Japanese and provide a brief explanation in broken Japanese. You can store your luggage at your feet on the boat. Since you may get splashed with water during the latter part of the parasailing, it's better to leave anything that shouldn't get wet at your feet. They don't insist on tips; they just casually say, "If you had fun, please consider tipping!" We paid a total of $40 for two people, including the $30 photo fee.
The acceleration of the boat at departure was fun, and I didn't feel any motion sickness at all.
The view from above was amazing!! I definitely want to do it again!
乗り込む前の書類提出時以外は外国人の方のみの対応です。
乗船後の説明も日本語の説明は暗記しているらしく、片言の日本語で説明してくれます。
荷物は船の足元に入れれるようになっています。
パラセーリング終盤に海に浸けられるので、頭から水をかぶる人もいるので、濡れては困るものはこの足元に置いて行った方がいいと思います。
チップは必要に要求してくることもなく、『楽しかったらチップお願いしまーす』と声かけしている程度でした。

The view of the Hawaiian sea and the streets of Waikiki from above was a sight that I rarely get to see, and it became a wonderful memory. The staff member on the boat took pictures with a digital camera and sold the SD memory card (it was $30 when I went). I paid $50 including a tip.

When you think of classic transportation in Hawaii, the trolley comes to mind! The local staff at the ticket exchange, including the older gentleman, are sure to make you laugh, and all the trolley drivers are fun people! You'd be missing out if you don't ride it.

I participated because it departed from the pier in front of the Hilton and the price was low, but we didn't see any whales, and the one-hour sailing ended in no time.
They mentioned that we could only go as far as Diamond Head (in English), and there was no particular explanation on the way back to the harbor. When I asked for water, it smelled musty...
However, I thought of it as sailing on a yacht and gave up.
I wonder if it's better to go on a larger boat when you really want to see whales? I heard that smaller boats can get closer, so I had quite a bit of expectation, but I thought it might be limited to boats that depart from Ko Olina.
ヒルトン前の埠頭から出発ということと、値段の安さで参加したのですが、クジラは見れないまま、一時間のセイリングはあっという間に終わってしまいました。
ダイヤモンドヘッドの前あたりまでしか行けないようなことを、言ってはいましたが(英語のみ)港に戻る時もとくに説明はなく、水を頼めば、カビ臭いし、、、
でも、ヨットでのセイリングと思って、あきらめました。
やはり、どうしてもクジラが見たい時は、大型船で行く方が良いのかな?
小型の船のほうが、近くまで行けるようなことを聞いたので、結構期待していたのですが、やはり、コオリナからとか出る船に限られるのかな?と思いました。

Thank you for participating in the whale watching cruise. During whale season, whales appear off the coast of Waikiki, and the captain was searching for them, but it seems we were unable to spot any on that day, which is unfortunate.
As you pointed out, the cruise is only one hour long, so we do not venture too far. We also apologize for any discomfort caused by the water we provided. We will ensure better quality control for the beverages served on board.
