It might be the same everywhere, but I was forced to wear a buoy around my waist and was bombarded with English instructions. Even when I wanted to get out because it was cold, they wouldn’t let anyone leave until everyone was in the water. If I tried to get out from another spot, I was redirected. It was a terrible place. It would be better if there were Japanese staff present.
どこも同じようなものかも知れませんが、腰に、うき具を付けらされ、一方的に英語でまくし立てられ、寒いから上がろうとしても、全員水に入るまでは、上がらせない。別の所から上がろうとすると回らされる、最低な所でした。日本人スタッフが居るところが良いですね。

On December 10th, I participated with my wife and our two sons, aged 0 and 3. At that time, the dolphin interaction at Sea Life Park was closed for renovations, and the other dolphin tours featured snorkeling with dolphins, which would be difficult with our young children, so we chose this option. I had heard that in December, if luck was on our side, we might see whales, so I was just hoping to see some dolphins or whales, but we were able to see dolphins, which made me very satisfied. Additionally, the boat played some lively music, and we could enjoy a few drinks, which added to the sense of adventure.
12月10日に0歳、3歳の息子と、妻と私の4人で参加しました。
当時はシーライフパークのイルカ触れ合いは改装で中止しており、他のイルカツアーはシュノーケリングでイルカと泳げるのがウリで、0,
3歳児を連れては難しいためこちらに参加しました。
12月は運が良ければクジラが見られるとのことだったので、イルカやクジラが見られればいいなという程度でしたが、無事イルカが見られてとても満足です。
また、船は結構イケイケな音楽がかかって、お酒が何杯か飲めるので、非日常感が味わえました。

My husband and I, along with our daughter and her husband and our grandchild, participated. At first, we couldn't see any whales, but later on, we were able to see whales, and there were also many dolphins swimming around. We all had a wonderful time together as a family. We would definitely like to participate again. There were restrooms on the boat, and we could also enjoy some beer. The travel time was short, and we had a very enjoyable experience. Thank you.
私たち夫婦、娘夫婦と孫で参加させて頂きました。

Personnel were wonderful. Great energy for having a fun time. The view of the city at night is spectacular as was the sunset. The food was okay. It is difficult to plate for the number of passengers and have it delivered hot in a timely manner. This was better than some experiences but not the best, which happened in Europe. Overall, it was a fun evening in a beautiful city.

We had a party of 6 so did private charter. Only way to do the fireworks.
Boat was perfect and the crew was fantastic. Very timely and thoughtful. Right before dusk, captain saw a whale surface and we got to see it and the flute. Appreciated him catching it.
We got lucky and they texted day of to see if we wanted to go out early for the sunset. Got message late and they still made it work. Only a minimal extra charge.
Whale, sunset and fireworks. Doesn’t get any better. Highly recommend this tour.

Let's join this tour with an open mind, haha!
First, the staff arrived about 20 minutes late from the meeting time! Well, since the other participants didn't complain, I'll take it as a good sign.
Also, once we got on the boat, there was a long explanation, but it was all in English! (By the way, the email we received right before also came in English, so I used a translation app to understand the content.)
Anyway, after listening to the explanation, we dove in! We saw so many turtles, it was amazing!
On the way back, we even encountered dolphins. It would have been perfect if I understood English, but I still had a great time!
このツアーはおおらかな気持ちで参加しましょう笑
まず、集合時間から20分ぐらい遅れでスタッフさん登場!まぁ他の参加者の方も文句は言ってなかったので良しとします
あと、船に乗ってから説明が長々とありましたが、全部英語!(ちなみに直前に来る案内メールも英語なので翻訳アプリで訳して内容理解しました)
まぁなんとなく説明も聞いてからのダイブ!
亀はこれでもかっ!ってぐらいに会えました。
あと、帰りの船でイルカにも遭遇
英語さえわかれば最高!じゃなくても楽しめました!

The ship is comfy, they also provide drinks.
Snorkeling spot is great, saw sea turtles and of course a lot of fishes.
We were very lucky to see 4 spots of dolphins swimming just around us and jumping and spinning.
Great crew, very friendly and helpful.
We brought 2 babies (18 months) with us, they also had a great time, could tell from their face :)
Attending a private tour allowed us to set out immediately for the dolphins when spotted them. Will def. choose to do private tour again next time.

As someone who scours reviews making sure to pick the right one, I definitely recommend this sail!!!
The crew was fantastic and extremely helpful the entirety of the trip. The boat fits a good amount of people but is still small enough to feel like you are not lost in a crowd. When leaving the dock, we saw a big group of surfers and then sailed along the entire coast up to Diamond Head. We saw a beautiful sunset, and even a pod of Hawaiian Spinner dolphins on our way out! After the sun sets, you get a great view of the city lit up at night and a beautiful view of the moon as well.
Great selection of drinks, first one is free (additional alcohol for only $6), and it’s not your usual cheap beer/wine but actually a full bar with great spirit choices!!
The price of the tour is extremely fair and we definitely would recommend this specific charter to any friends and family!!!! Thanks Moana Catamaran for a great evening!

I only understand a little English, but when it comes to snorkeling, just communicate your fin size in US sizes, and once you're in the water, you can follow the staff without any issues. There were many sea turtles and beautiful fish!
On the boat, just sit back and enjoy without doing anything dangerous! The staff was very kind, providing cold water as a service and being attentive to the passengers, which made the experience very enjoyable.
The meeting place is at the location on Google Maps listed on this site, where you should look for the boat labeled "MOANA." The meeting time is 7:30, and we boarded around 8:00. The staff called out to us near the boat around that time. I highly recommend it!
片言の英語しかわからないのですが、シュノーケルではフィンのUSサイズを伝えることと、海に入ったらスタッフさんについていけば問題ないです。ウミガメやきれいな魚がたくさんいました!
船上では危ないことをせず座って楽しめばOKです!
サービスで冷たいお水を出してくれたり乗客に気配りしてくれたりスタッフさんが優しくとても楽しめました。
集合場所は、このサイトにのってるGoogle Mapの場所に行き、MOANAと書かれた船を見つけましょう。集合時間は7:30で乗船するのは8時頃でした。
8時頃にスタッフさんが船の近くで声をかけてくれました。
とてもおすすめです!

The meeting place was hard to find, and it took 20 minutes after the meeting time for the guide to finally show up. The guide only provided explanations in English, with no simple Japanese at all. I struggled to get used to putting on the snorkel and couldn't get into the water for a while. The guide mentioned that they couldn't take responsibility for those who couldn't swim, so they advised us not to swim. I think it would have been helpful to have a brief lecture on tips for breathing with the snorkel. Once we set sail, everything went smoothly, and we were able to see sea turtles coming up to the surface multiple times, which was amazing.
集合場所がわかりづらく、集合時間から20分経ってようやくガイドさんが出てきました。
ガイドは英語の説明のみで、簡単な日本語も一切無し。
シュノーケルの付け方に慣れず、なかなか海に入れないでいたら、泳げない人は責任が取れないから泳がないでほしい、と言った話をされましたが、シュノーケルの呼吸の仕方のコツなど簡単なレクチャーがあってもいいと思います。
出航してからの手際はよく、ウミガメは海面付近に何度も出てきたので間近で見れました。

I arrived at the meeting place on time, but there were no tour staff, which made me anxious. Since everything is in English, I recommend joining a tour with Japanese-speaking staff for those who feel uneasy. For those who are okay with just a general understanding, the staff will explain things in an easy-to-understand manner, so please give it a try. I was able to see both sea turtles and wild dolphins perfectly!
集合場所に時間通りに着いたのにツアースタッフがいなくて不安になりました。全て英語なので、不安な方は日本語スタッフのいるツアーに参加される事をお勧めします。何となくでも良い方にはスタッフが分かりやすい言葉て教えてくれるので、参加してみて下さい。ウミガメも野生のイルカもバッチリ見ることができました!

This cruise was so much fun. The crew was really friendly and there were about 3-4 crew in the water with us which made novice snorkelers more comfortable. Overall, loved this cruise.
Tips:
-This boat departs from Kewalo Basin Harbor. The parking lot was crowded so Uber/Lyft or taxi is best.
-Bring sunscreen, towel, change of clothes for after
After we finished the snorkel sail, we headed over to Kakaako to grab lunch!

We brought our own snacks and drinks since we knew it was a longer 4-hour trip. Snorkel equipment was included for those of us that wanted to snorkel.
The boat was HUGE (74ft!) so we had plenty of space. We brought our own smaller speaker which was great for lounging on the bow of the boat.

Definitely 10/10 experience. It was my 2nd time doing it. This time I took my brother and his gf and hopefully next year I get to bring my parents. Food was delicious, staff was flexible and accommodating, views and vibe were great. I noticed the staff is so nice. They don’t rush you to finish your plate. They allow us to be moving/walking around in the boat throughout the whole time even if it makes it a little bit more challenging for them to be able to serve us. Non alcoholic beverages were great. If you like to drink alcohol you can just take a bottle and add your alcohol to their non alcoholic drinks. You won’t regret choosing this one!

The sunset view was beautiful and the crew was nice, but when I booked a cocktail cruise, I wasn’t expecting a boat full of children. There was a group of over 30 that had around 15 children with them and they took up all of the seating. One spilled a sticky drink down my husband’s leg. I love children, but like I said, I wasn’t expecting it due to the advertisement of this being a cocktail cruise. I will read more carefully before I book a similar cruise in the future.
