North Shore Winter Whale Watch Sailing (from Haleiwa)

North shore whale watch

Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous

I'm sure it could have been a fun experience, but I only saw part of a whale and you could barely see it. The crew was very nice and made the ride enjoyable but I didn't really see any whales.

絶景スカイダイビング　一度は経験してみたい大空で味わうスリルと感動！ビデオ＆写真撮影付きプランあり　by ゴージャンプハワイ＜送迎付き＞

Definitely diving over other tours. 他のツアーよりも絶対ダイビング

Reviewed by: kimu21

I came to Hawaii for the first time in my life and experienced skydiving for the first time as well.

The day before, I explored Oahu, trying B-class gourmet food, watching a Polynesian show, and visiting the popular Ala Moana Shopping Center. I was hesitant about diving because it seemed scary. However, once I tried it, there was no comparison.

The clear blue sky, the beautiful ocean, the round Earth, and the free fall from 4,000 meters that I've never experienced before were all incredible. It was the best experience, even better than any attraction. I used to have a fear of heights, but the only scary moment was right before jumping; after that, I could fully enjoy the scenery.

However, the moment the parachute opened, I felt a strong pull that was quite painful, and I also experienced some parachute sickness.

Additionally, the transportation was disorganized, and I was made to sign a waiver without any explanation, leaving me unsure of when things would start after arriving, so I rated the staff's response ★★★.

But beyond that, you will experience something you’ve never had before, so if you come to Hawaii, make skydiving your top priority.

There are two diving companies. Insurance does not cover anything, and it's all at your own risk, but I recommend Pacific Skydiving Center.

P.S. Photos were $125, DVDs were $160, and both together were $190. It was worth more than the price, so I requested both.

生まれて初めてハワイに来て、生まれて初めてスカイダイビングを経験しました。

前日までは、オアフ島1周してB級グルメを食べたり、ポリネシアンショーをみたり、人気のアラモアナショッピングセンターに行ったりしました。ダイビングは怖いので迷っていました。しかし、やってみたら比べものになりません。

雲ひとつない真っ青な空、きれいな海、丸い地球、そして経験したことのない4000mからのフリーフォール。どんなアトラクションよりも最高です。私は高所恐怖症でしたが、飛ぶ瞬間だけが怖いだけであって、あとは景色を堪能できます。

ただ、パラシュートを開いた瞬間はかなり引っ張られて痛かったですし、パラシュート酔いもしました。

また、送り迎えの車が乱雑でしたし、誓約書を何も言わずに書かされたり、ついてからいつ始まるか分からない状態でしたので、スタッフの対応は★3つとさせていただきました。

でも、それ以上に味わったことがない事を体験しますので、ハワイに来たら真っ先にスカイダイビングをしてください。

あとダイビング会社が２つあります。保険は利かず全て自己責任ですが、パシフィックスカイダイビングセンターをおすすめします。

PS:写真は125ドル、DVDは160ドル、両方は190ドルでした。価格より価値がありましたので、両方をお願いしました。

Wonderful trip! Highly reccomend!

Reviewed by: Mr and Mrs Evans

My husband and I travel to Hawaii every year and during our many trips, we have been on countless whale watching tours, but this one definitely stands out from the crowd. Rather than being shuffled onto a huge ship and being an anonymous passenger, being on this catamaran allowed for a much more personal interaction. On top of all this, the ocean was amazing and seeing the the whales was, as always, and amazing and unforgettable experience. When we got home, I told all of our friends and hope that they will be able to make it to Hawaii so they can check out this tour out :)

We did this tour on our first day at Oahu, and it gave us an excellent introduction to the culture, landscapes, and lifestyles of Hawai'i. The tour was absolutely fantastic; we saw so many different and beautiful places without ever feeling rushed. Perhaps the best thing about the tour though was our guide Keau- he was so welcoming, funny, and knowledgeable. I definitely recommend this tour to all visitors to Hawai'i :)

Discover Oahu’s North Shore from Waikiki with The Surf Bus - Snorkel, Kayak, SUP & Waimea Falls

Fun Time on Surf Bus

Reviewed by: Sandy

We had a great time on this tour. The group was small, so the guide could be flexible and give individual attention to each participant. There was a range of activities so you could choose how active you wanted to be. We did the Wailea Falls hike and stand-up paddling. We had lunch at the cafe at Wailea Falls, very good Hawaiian-style food. We were glad we paid the extra for an instructor on the paddling as it was challenging. I would only recommend doing it on your own if you are experienced. I highly recommend this tour if you are interested in learning more about the North Shore.

I am so happy that I was able to participate on this activity - it was WONDERFUL! I loved my Cousin Lloyd who was my group guide... everyone was wonderful, friendly, informative, and very respectful of their responsibilities - portraying to us the visitors a part of history and sharing of their culture. Everyone was funny, attentive and kind. I loved it! I will definitely do this again for my future visits. The Luau was delicious and Ha: The Breath of Life was incredible... too bad the video was not available for me to bring for my family to see in AZ. A big thanks for everyone that makes this possible from funding, to costumes, practices, etc... I truly appreciate all the work and effort involved in this. God bless!

Shark Adventure Tour シャークアドベンチャーツアー

Reviewed by: AKKO&KAZU

I finally went on the Shark Adventure. There were three groups, including us, but the others seemed cramped as they entered in groups of four at the same time. We had more than enough time, I think it was about 15 to 20 minutes, and they let us stay until we said we were done. Our hands and feet were sticking out of the cage, which added to the tension. The staff handled everything in a calm manner, so those who want to enjoy themselves won't have any issues. I was concerned about seasickness, but I drank two strong ones from Japan, so it wasn't too bad. We drove from Waikiki, and the route was comfortable without getting lost, but on the way back, I was definitely sleepy and tired, so please be careful.

念願のシャークアドベンチャーにいきました。外国の方と我々も含めて３組でしたが、他の方は４人同時に入ったりで狭そうでした。時間は十分すぎるほどあり１５分から２０分くらいだったと思いますが、こちらからもう結構だと言うまでさせてくれます。檻から手足ははみ出るし緊迫感はあります。スタッフは淡々とこなしている感じですので自分たちで楽しむ方は問題ありません。懸念された船酔いも日本から強力なのを２本飲みましたので差ほどではありませんでした。レンタカーでワイキキから行きましたが道も迷うことなく快適でしたが帰りはさすがに眠く疲れますので気をつけてください。

North Shore Shark Adventures - Oahu Cage Diving Tour with Waikiki Transportation

Great experience

Reviewed by: Marina

The crew was great and we had a good amount of time to view the sharks (usually I think these activities end too quickly, but I was very happy here). Unfortunately, when I went the waves were really strong and I got bruised and sea sick being tossed around, but I think if the weather was more calm, it would've been really amazing. I would definitely do it again. I do, however, wish that the cage was larger or that they would let no more than 2 people in at a time because there's not that much space to maneuver, and if there are waves you're always running into the other people. The sharks are very graceful and beautiful and do come rather close so that you can get some great visuals, but for those that are afraid, they never come close enough for one to feel unsafe. In fact, they don't seem particularly interested in the people as much as they are in just swimming around. I didn't purchase a video, but I think I would next time, just because it was very difficult to get good pictures w

My husband and I booked the Ambassador package which provided a small group guided tour. DeGe, our guide, was knowledgeable and funny. The tour didn't give us much time to see each village but the center is too big to be seen in one day so, with DeGe, we were able to see a little bit of everything. The luau was fun and the food was good. The Ha performance was also very entertaining. Well worth the money for the package.

Viewing from the perspective of a skydiving spectator. スカイダイビング見学者での見方

Reviewed by: ｽｶｲﾀﾞｲﾋﾞﾝｸﾞ見学者

1: The transfer from Waikiki takes about 1 hour and 30 minutes.
Departure at 7:00 AM, arrival at 8:30 AM.

2: Watch a video to learn about skydiving. About 10 minutes.

3: After arrival, review the documents and sign them. About 10 minutes.
Up to this point, even those who are not jumping start to feel like they want to fly.

4: Free time from 9:00 AM.
Many people mentioned that the waiting time during this period was long.
There is a place next door that sells snacks (just a few seconds away), so it might be a good idea to buy something to pass the time.
The staff were buying food and eating inside.

5: At 11:00 AM, we were called to prepare.

6: Boarding at 11:15 AM.
About 30 minutes.

7: Landing at 11:45 AM.

8: At 12:00 PM, if you requested video recording and photos, it seems you have to wait about an hour after landing to check the video. In my case, I purchased it without watching.
So, after finishing the dive, I quickly got on the bus and departed.

I think we arrived around 1:30 PM near Waikiki.

The times mentioned are based on my experience, so I hope they are helpful.

1：ワイキキからの送迎は現地まで約1時間30分
　　出発7時　　到着8時30分

2：ビデオを見てスカイダイビングを勉強する。10分位

3：到着後書類に目を通しサインをする。10分位
　
　ここまでは飛ばない人もなんだか飛ぶ気がしてきます。　

4：フリータイム　9時~
　　皆様がおっしゃっている、この間の待ち時間が長かと。
　　お隣さんのスカイダイビング屋に軽食を売っている所が　　あるので、（徒歩数秒）待ち時間に購入して時間を潰す　　のには持ってこいかと思います。
　　スタッフの方が買って中で食べていました。
　　
5：11時声が掛かり準備。

6：11時15分搭乗
　　　約30分間
7：11時45分着地

8：12時ビデオ撮影＆写真を頼まれた場合は、
着地から約1時間待てばビデオの確認をさせてくれるそうですが、自分の場合は、見ないで購入しました。
なので、ダイビング終了後早々にバスに乗り込み出発。

ワイキキ周辺に着いたのが13：30頃だったかと。


時間は自分の時の時間なので、参考になれば良いかと。

We had an activity the previous day with this same company and were very pleased with the snorkling outing. On the sunset cruise a different staff was provided. When we booked a sunset cruise for our last night we were thinking something romantic. Their were only 2 couples on the cruise and some teenage kids and partying adults, anything but romantic. The kids were jumping on the "trampoline" at the front and even though they were told to stop they continued, one of the staff finally got them to stop but they were still complaing. I just felt maybe it should be booked either as couples or a party cruise. The scenery was beautiful at sunset, just not able to enjoy the experience much.

After skydiving, the shuttle to the hotel left without any notice, which left us anxious about when we would be able to return. This was the only disappointing point.
