I was worried if it would be okay since the kids are small, but the staff were all kind, and it seems the kids enjoyed themselves. It was also great that we could experience snorkeling and sea kayaking at spots where we could see not only dolphins but also fish and turtles. Everyone in my family saw the dolphins except for me σ(^_^;) I saw a lot of dorsal fins from a large group of dolphins σ(^_^;)
子供達が小さいので大丈夫かなぁ〜、、と心配でしたがスタッフの皆さんも親切で子供達も楽しめた様です。イルカを見るだけでなく魚や亀が見えるスポットでもシュノーケリングやシーカヤックなどの体験が出来たのもとても良かったです。 イルカは私以外の家族は全員見ましたσ(^_^;) 私はイルカの大群の背ビレを沢山見ましたσ(^_^;)

We participated as a family of four. I had read in other people's experiences that the air conditioning on the bus was quite strong, so I brought a jacket. On the way there, many people were wearing their own towels. On the way back, perhaps because we were sitting in the front row, we didn't feel the cold air conditioning, but I didn't see the back seats, so I'm not sure how others managed.
As for the lockers, we didn't use them. We left our change of clothes nearby and kept our valuables in a waterproof case that we bought at ABC Store, which held our credit cards and iPhone.
My youngest child is six years old, and they went on almost all the attractions. They said the attraction shaped like a red trumpet was scary.
We had so much fun that we didn't even have lunch, and we only drank a little of the water we were allowed to bring. We played the whole time and were very satisfied. We want to go again!
家族4人で参加しました。他の方の体験談で行き帰りのバスの冷房がキツいと見ていたので上着を持って行きました、行きは持参のバスタオルを羽織っている方が多かったです、帰りは我々は一番前の席に座っていた為か冷房のキツさは感じず、後ろの席は見ていないので他の方々はどうされていたか分かりません。
ロッカーについては我々は使いませんでした。その辺に着替えの荷物は置いて、貴重品はABCstoreで買った首から下げる防水のビニールケースにクレジットカードとiphoneを入れていました。
下の子供が6歳ですが、ほぼ全てのアトラクション行きました、赤いラッパのような形のアトラクションは怖かったと言っていましたが。
楽しくて楽しくて昼食も摂らず、唯一持参OKだった水を少し飲んだ程度でずっと遊びました、大満足でした。また行きたいです。

There are some things that can't be helped since it's nature, but I was able to encounter dolphins, although I only saw their dorsal fins. I couldn't see them swimming around in the water. I got my hopes up because the experience photos showed Masala donuts. We departed early in the morning without having time for a satisfying meal before boarding. There were no drinks or snacks during the ride, and we finally got a light meal around 11 o'clock, which included hamburgers, drinks, and snacks. Maybe I was expecting too much from the dolphins and the food.
自然が相手なので仕方ないところもあるけど、イルカと遭遇出来たけど、イルカの背びれは見えただけ。海の中を泳ぎ回るところまでは見ることが出来なかった。体験談の写真ではマサラダドーナツが映ったりしていたので期待しちゃいました。早朝出発で満足な食事をとる時間もないままに乗船。
乗船中のドリンクやスナックはなく、11時頃の軽食でやっとハンバーガーとドリンク、スナックが出された。イルカやフードに期待しすぎちゃったかな。
Aloha!! Monkeychi,
Thank you for participating in the Dolphin University tour. We have discontinued the malasada since many guests felt unwell after eating it last year. The condition of the dolphins varies greatly from day to day, so we hope you will join us again to see them joyfully swimming in the ocean.
All of our staff are looking forward to your next visit.

My elementary school-aged son had a great time. Since it's a popular theme park, it can't be helped, but the wait times in direct sunlight were quite long. We gave up on having lunch and decided to slide down as many slides as possible. The bus instructions for going and returning were very clear and reassuring.

This was my second visit. Last time, since it was New Year's, there were times when some attractions were open and others were not, which made it inefficient and I remember waiting a lot. This time, I think there were more people than during New Year's, but everything was open, so I was able to enjoy it without waiting too much.
Attractions that could only be done in pairs last time are now available for individuals, which made waiting for the pair floaties take some time. I would like to see more pair floaties available.
I thought the operating hours from 10:30 AM to 4:30 PM were a bit short, but I was able to go around efficiently, so I had plenty of fun. My child really loves this place. I hope we can come again!
二度目の来園です。
前回はお正月だったので、一部のアトラクションがやっている時間とやっていない時間があり、効率が悪く、待たされた記憶がありました。
今回は、人はお正月よりも多かったと思いますが、全てやっていたので、それほど並ぶ事もなく満喫できました。
前回はペアでしか出来なかったアトラクションが一人でも出来るようになっていて、ペアの浮き輪を待つのに時間がかかりました。
もうちょっとペア用の浮き輪を増やして欲しいです。
営業時間は10時30分~16時30分で短いかな?と思いましたが、効率良く回れたので充分楽しめました。
うちの子は、かなりお気に入りの場所です。

My first experience at Wet 'n' Wild. Since I had a small child and elderly people with me, I arranged for a cabana. The confirmation email was a day late, but I was relieved to have secured it. On the day of the visit, we were given wristbands color-coded by plan before boarding the bus, but there was a mishap where I was mistakenly given the color for a different group's basic plan. However, that was quickly corrected. After getting off the bus, I exchanged the printed confirmation email for entry tickets with the staff, but this turned out to be a mistake. Once inside, I started looking for "where is the cabana I reserved?" but I had no idea where to find it. When I asked the local staff by giving my name, they just shook their heads and said "NO." I should have confirmed with the Japanese staff on the bus before entering, but it was too late, and I was very flustered. While I was trying to explain to the reception staff, a female staff member who spoke Japanese came to help and checked the situation. After a short wait, the response I received was, "We apologize. We indeed reserved it under your name, but due to a mistake on our part, we reserved the wrong date. Since this is our error, I will email Veltra today to explain, and we will refund the cabana fee." When I asked, "Is there anywhere I can rest in the shade?" she very politely replied, "I will take responsibility and find a place for you." After a while, they provided apology gifts for everyone and secured a spot with chairs, although it was a bit far away. It was disappointing that I couldn't use the reserved cabana, but the response from the female staff was very pleasant, and I was able to enjoy my time without feeling upset. After returning home, I also received a polite email from Veltra. While this might be uncommon in Japan, such things may not be rare in America (Hawaii). I recommend everyone check the options before entering.
初めてのウエットアンドワイルド。小さな子供と年配者がいることもありカバナ付きを手配。予約確定のメールは予定より1日遅れでしたが何とか確保できて安心していました。当日、プランごとに色分けされたリストバンドをバス乗車の前につけられるのですが、間違って違うグループのベーシックプランの色をつけられたりとハプニングはありましたが、それはすぐに訂正して頂きました。バス降車後、スタッフの方に予約確定のメールをプリントアウトしたものと引き換え入場券を頂きましたが、これが失敗でした。入場してから「さて予約したカバナはどこ?」と探しましたが全くわからず、現地のスタッフに名前を言って聞いても「NO」と首を振るばかり。バスの日本人?スタッフに確認してから入場すればよかったのですが、時すでに遅しで大変焦りました。受付スタッフに何とか説明していると、日本語ができる女性スタッフが来てくれ、状況を確認してくれました。少し待たされた後、返ってきた答えは「申し訳ありません。確かにお客様のお名前で予約頂きましたが、こちらのスタッフのミスで日にちを間違えて確保してしまいました。今回はこちらのミスですので今日私からベルトラにメールで説明し、カバナ代金は返金させて頂きます。」とのこと。「どこか日陰で休めるところはありませんか?」と聞くと「私が責任をもって探して参ります」と大変丁重に謝って下さいました。そして暫くしてお詫びのグッズを人数分と、少し離れた場所ではありましたがチェアーのある場所を確保して頂きました。予約していたカバナが利用できなかったのは残念でしたが、女性スタッフの方の対応が大変気持ちよく、イヤな気分になることなく楽しめました。帰国後、ベルトラからも丁重なメールを頂きました。日本ではありえませんが、このようなことはアメリカ(ハワイ)では珍しくないのかもしれません。皆さんも入場する前にオプションの確認をされることをお勧めします。
Thank you very much for participating in the tour.
However, we sincerely apologize for the significant inconvenience caused at the site due to the cabana that was supposed to be secured as confirmed by the tour operator not being available.
As mentioned in a separate email, we have taken this matter seriously and have issued a strict warning to the local tour operator to prevent a recurrence. Moving forward, we will ensure that multiple confirmations are made by the tour operator to guarantee that your reservations are properly arranged.
We take your feedback to heart and, together with the tour operator, will strive to further improve our services. Thank you very much for your valuable feedback amidst your busy schedule.

The cheerful guide, who was a second-generation Japanese-American captain, mostly had foreign guests, but afterwards, he kindly interpreted for the Japanese customers, making it easy to understand. The boat was a yacht type, allowing us to fully enjoy the resort atmosphere. After seeing dolphins, I was delighted to spot sea turtles swimming at a depth of about 10 meters during snorkeling. There was not enough time during lunchtime, so a lot of food was left over, which felt wasteful. It's better to start eating right after snorkeling. I was shocked to find that other coupons offered the same tour at a lower price than what I had booked, but the tour itself was very good, so I highly recommend it!
日系2世の船長さんの陽気なガイドで、お客さんはほとんど外国人の方でしたが、そのあと日本人客向けに丁寧に通訳してくださり、よくわかりました。
船もヨットタイプでリゾート気分満喫。
イルカを見たあと、シュノーケリング場所では水深10メートル程のところに海亀も泳いでいるのが見えて嬉しかったです。
ランチタイムは時間が少ないので沢山食べ物が余ってしまって勿体なかったです。シュノーケリングが終わったらすぐに食べはじめたほうがいいです。
他のクーポンで同じ内容のツアーが自分が予約したものより安くなっててショックを受けましたが、ツアー自体はとても良かったのでお勧めです❗

We gathered in front of the designated hotel at 9 AM and took a bus. We went with a BBQ plan. Each tube had its own designated float, but many people ended up having to line up again because it wasn't strictly enforced, so be careful. You can tell which float is which by looking around.
There are about six different types of tubes, but they were split into two groups, and you have to use the designated float. However, there were no prior instructions, which made it a bit confusing. Many people were lining up again, and there wasn't much effort to communicate properly. Well, this is America, after all (laughs). The lack of motivation from the staff is something that would be unthinkable in Japan, but if you accept that this is America, you can enjoy it a lot (laughs).
The BBQ lunch buffet was not what I expected; I thought we would be able to BBQ ourselves, but it was more of a "buffet style where you can freely take the BBQ ingredients." Well, as long as it's tasty, that's what matters (laughs). The ingredients were decent, and I enjoyed them reasonably well. If you're a light eater, there are also regular places where you can just line up and buy food, so that might be a good option too. The all-you-can-drink option also required lining up, so I only used it once.
We gathered at 3 PM and took the bus back. The short duration of the stay was a downside, but I enjoyed the experience itself.
朝の9時に指定されたホテル前に集合してバスで行く。BBQ付きプランで行った。各チューブでそれぞれ専用のウキワを使うのだが、徹底してなくて並び直す羽目になる人が結構いたので要注意。周りを見ればどのウキワなのかがわかる。
いろんなパターンのチューブが6種類くらいあるが、2手に分かれていたりして、指定のウキワを使わなけりゃいけないのですが、事前の説明書きなどが無くてややこしい。
並び直す人が結構いて、ちゃんと伝える努力ってものがないですねー。まぁ、ここはアメリカですからねぇ(笑) バイトの兄ちゃんのやる気のなさなど日本ではありえない運営体制ですが、アメリカなんで致し方ないと達観すれば大いに楽しめるでしょう(爆)
BBQランチ食べ放題は、BBQできるのかと思いきや・・・「BBQされてる食材をビュッフェ形式で自由に取る」って形態のものでした。まぁ美味しく食べられればそれでいいんですけど(笑)まぁまぁな食材があり、まぁまぁ普通においしくいただきました。小食の方ならこのプランでなくても、普通に並んで購入するところもありますのでそちらでもよろしいかと。ドリンク飲み放題もいちいちならばにゃいかんので1回しか使わなかった。
15時集合でバスに乗って帰った。滞在時間が少なすぎるのが難点だが、内容そのものは楽しめましたよ。

My wife went separately, so I took my two sons (15 and 10 years old) with me. Having previously visited Adventure Cove in Singapore, Waterbom in Bali, and domestic spots like Shibamasa World and Nagashima Resort, I can't help but compare. The atmosphere here has a tropical vibe, and Waterbom is definitely the best (followed by Adventure Cove). The food is also better at Waterbom (I only know a place called Thaitalian, but it's definitely delicious). The water slides are best at Adventure Cove. I remember queuing multiple times for the incredible slide called the Riptide Rocket (please check the website for details). I think it's the same one that recently made its debut in Japan at NESTA Kobe! So, while the slides at Wet 'n' Wild felt pretty standard, the speed and lateral G-forces provided a thrill, and the kids tried them multiple times. The wave pool had some seriously intense waves that could almost make you feel like you were drowning if you weren't careful, which was a lot of fun. I think the kids were satisfied, but if the price is the same, I might not choose this place again.
妻は別行動のため、息子たち2人(15歳と10歳)で行ってきました。
過去にシンガポールのアドベンチャーコーブ、バリのウォーターボム、国内なら芝政、ナガシマリゾートなどで遊んだことがあるので比較してしまいますが、雰囲気は南国っぽい感じで断然ウォーターボム(次にアドベンチャーコーブ)、食事もウォーターボム(確実にうまいです。Thaitalianという店しか知りませんが)、ウォータースライダーはアドベンチャーコーブですね。リップタイドロケットという物凄い(詳細はホームページをご参照ください)スライダーに何回も並んで乗ったのが記憶にあります。最近ネスタ神戸に日本初上陸!と宣伝しているあれだと思います。ですので、ウェットアンドワイルドのスライダーは普通っちゃ普通な感じですが、スピード感と横Gはスリルがあり子供たちは何回もトライしていました。あと波の出るプールの波が油断するとおぼれそうな半端ない激しい波で楽しめました。
子供たちは満足していたので良かったと思いますが、同じ料金なら次はないかも・・です。

We gathered and departed before 6 AM, and the early start was a bit tough. Shortly after setting sail, we spotted a pod of dolphins and began snorkeling. Due to the busy season, there were many participants, and I was the last to enter the water, so I couldn't see any dolphins. Those who went in first were able to see dolphins swimming right in front of them. It seems that to see the moving dolphins, you really need to go early.
After that, we moved to see turtles, as there are rocky areas where they reside. As expected, since they live among the rocks, we were able to see three turtles swimming slowly around the area. One of them came up right in front of me, probably for air, which was surprising. It was within reach. This was great and I think it became a wonderful memory.
朝の6時前に集合して出発、早いのが少し辛い。
出港早々、イルカの群れを発見しシュノーケル開始。
繁忙期の為、参加者が多く、私は最後に海に入るもイルカは見られず。先頭で入った方々は目の前を泳ぐイルカを見れたとの事。やはり移動して行くイルカを見るには早めに行かないと厳しいみたい。
その後はカメを見に移動、こちらはカメが住み着いている岩場があるという事。流石に岩場に住み着いているという事なので、カメが3頭ゆっくりと岩の周りが泳いでいるのが見れました。
その内の1頭が息継ぎの為か目の前まで上がって来てビックリ。もう手の届く距離でした。
これは良いけど想い出になったと思います。

I had high expectations, so I was a bit disappointed with the service. I arrived 40 minutes before opening time and had to wait in the blazing sun until the park opened. There were very few shaded areas near the entrance, making it quite tough for small children.
I had made a reservation for a cabana in advance, but the staff initially said there was no reservation. Since it wasn't booked, the person at the reception left their post. After showing the reservation form and negotiating through the wasted time, they finally prepared the cabana for us.
On the positive side, the staff were Japanese, and it was great that each cabana had a dedicated staff member who took drink and food orders without us having to wait. They were very kind!

There are Japanese staff members, but the basic staff members are English speakers, so if you don't understand English, you might feel left out. I thought it might have been better to have more university-related staff.
When boarding the boat, it's better to sit in the open back so you can participate in various activities and enjoy yourself.
I applied for photos, but you won't get photographed unless you actively ask for it. During the time to enjoy activities, make sure to go and say, "Please take my picture!"
Many people were feeling seasick. It was nice weather, though. The motion sickness wristbands I bought on the pickup bus were expensive, but I believe they helped my daughters and me not to get sick! Our family usually has a weak constitution.
日本人のスタッフの方もいますが、基本英語のスタッフの方々が楽しい会話をしていますので、英語がわからないと置いてけぼり感を感じます。
大学さん系の方が良かったかなーと思いました。
船に乗るときは屋根のない後方に座ったほうが色々と参加できて楽しめます。
写真を申し込みましたが、積極的にアピールしに行かないと写してもらえません。
アクテビティを楽しむ時間には「写して〜」とアピールしに行きましょう。
かなりの方が船酔いしていました。
良いお天気だったのですが。
ピックアップのバスの中で買った酔い止めのリストバンド、高いですが、我が家の娘達&私が酔わなかったのはこれのおかげだと思います‼︎普段弱い家族なので。

It was my first time participating, and since it was my first tour to see wild dolphins, I had a great time. However, the content was a bit hard for small children, and I felt it was a little dangerous with too many participants, as fins occasionally hit my face.
初めての参加でしたが、野生のイルカに会えるツアーは初めてだったので楽しかったです。
小さい子供にはちょっとハードな内容だったのと、
参加者母数が少々多く、フィンが顔に当たるなどちょっと危険かなと感じました。
ALOHA! Ururu-sama,
Thank you for participating in the Dolphin University this time. Since it’s a tour with wild dolphins, there may be days when you have to swim quite a bit depending on the dolphins' mood. However, I'm glad to hear that your children enjoyed it!
Please do join us again when you come back to Hawaii. All of our staff are looking forward to welcoming you.
MAHALO!

この度はイルカ大学へのご参加ありがとうございました。
野生のイルカとのツアーなので、イルカ先生の気分次第ではしっかりと泳がなければいけない日もございます。
ですが、お子様にもお楽しみいただけたようでよかったです!
またハワイへお越しの際はぜひご参加くださいませ。
スタッフ一同心よりおまちしております。
MAHALO !

There is a similar water park in Tokyo, but we went there at the request of the kids. As expected, the slides were extremely crowded, and it didn't feel enjoyable at all. I don't think we'll go there on our next trip.
東京にも同様のウォーターパークがありますが、子供の希望により行きました。ある程度予測できたことですが、スライダー類はとにかく混んでいて、楽しいという感じではありませんでした。次回の旅行では、まず行かないと思います。

Waianae Beach
The ocean was very clear, and I was truly impressed.
I was able to see many dolphins. Their sounds were also audible, and they were really cute.
Makaha Beach
I went snorkeling and saw many sea turtles and small fish swimming around.
Makaha Beach felt like a place that wasn't a typical tourist spot; it was a laid-back beach that I definitely want to visit again.
After enjoying snorkeling at this beach, you can also try stand-up paddleboarding.
Stand-up paddleboarding was exciting and fun, but there was a bit of a rotation system with the vibe of "Okay, you did one round. You stood up! (Next!)", so I felt there was a bit less freedom.
Even so! I thought it was truly valuable to have that much fun and relax just in the morning.
It had a different atmosphere compared to the typical spots like Waikiki, North Shore, and Kailua. I think it's a direction that we don't often go to on our own, but I highly recommend it. I'm really glad I participated!
イルカ・ワイアナエビーチ
海がとてもクリアで感動しました。
たくさんのイルカを見ることができました。
鳴き声も聞こえたりして、本当に可愛かったです。
カメさん・マカハビーチ
海ガメや小さな魚がたくさん泳いでいるところをシュノーケルしました。
マカハビーチは、観光地!という感じではない、
のんびりとしたビーチでぜひまた行きたい思う場所でした。
ここのビーチでシュノーケリングを楽しんだ後はサップができます。
サップは盛り上がって楽しかったのですが、交代制で
「はい、1周したね。立てたね!(次!)」という雰囲気が
なんとな~くあったので
自由度が少なかったように思います。
それでも!午前中だけであれだけ楽しめてのんびり過ごせて本当に価値があると思いました。
ワイキキ・ノースショア・カイルアなど定番のスポットとは一味ちがう雰囲気でした。なかなか自分たちの足では行くことが少ない方面だと思うのですが、すごくお勧めです。本当に参加してよかった!
ALOHA!! Thank you for making a reservation with Dolphin University! We are glad to hear that you enjoyed the good old Hawaii on the West Coast. We sincerely apologize for the times when we couldn't provide enough time for everyone to fully enjoy the marine sports, especially on busy days. We hope you will come back to Dolphin University and give SUP another try! Thank you, MAHALO!!

Bob and Akima picked us up at 7.25 am outside Hawaiian Prince Hotel, then picked up 2 other groups of 3 making 8 of us. We drove out of Waikiki for around 20 mins with interesting commentary about Hawaii from Akima before reaching our first stop - a beautiful picturesque beach where it"s possible to see dolphins. Akima spoke Japanese so stayed with the 6 Japanese people leaving Bob to me and my friend. Bob told us a lot about the area and if you want to know more about surfing then Bob's your man. We then moved on to a small group of shops where we bought items for our picnic lunch later.
We next went to a Kaneana,(Makua cave) a very old sea cave with many legends attached to it. Bob was a great storyteller telling us about the legend of the shapeshifter shark man of Makua cave. Then you can explore the cave a bit if you dare!
Next we stopped at the stunning Makaha valley which again has a great legend associated with it and looks like scenery from Kong Island or Jurassic Park.
We were really lucky driving to our next spot as Bob spotted a rare Monk Seal basking on the rocks.
A couple more lovely spots then time for our lunch at Ku'ilioloa Heiau, and then the snorkelling at Pokai Bay. First Bob checked our swimming ability then gave us mask,snorkel and fins plus a life vest. Bob is very patient and stays with you all the time gently encouraging you to explore the sealife. I'm not confident snorkelling but felt very safe with Akima and Bob. We saw corals, beautiful colourful fish and 2 sea turtles.
It was a really great day which we would definitely recommend to anyone wishing to see a much less touristy authentic side of Oahu, the scenery is just beautiful and excellent snorkelling. Many thanks to Akima and Bob who made our day special.
Aloha, thank you for your time for review us!
We are happy to hear that you enjoyed our unique tour. West Oahu is very special place, we are glad you experienced this sacred Hawaiian land.
We also do private tour, you ever come to Hawaii, let us take you again!

We participated as a family of four. It was August, and all participants wore bodysuits. Those who were worried about seasickness purchased seasickness bands (for both wrists). Our family also took seasickness medication, but we wanted to enjoy ourselves, so we bought the bands. (Those without bands seemed to struggle with nausea!) We put on our snorkeling gear and jumped into the sea, following the person in front of us. We were lucky to swim with "dolphins," "sea turtles," and "fish" right away. After playing, we had lunch on the boat with hamburgers and fruit, and there was also a hula dance with the staff. Since we had signed up for photos ($60) on the bus ride there, we got to take commemorative pictures with the captain in the ship's upper control room, which made for great memories!
家族4人で参加しました。8月でしたが、参加者全員ボディスーツ着用して船酔いが心配な人は
酔い止めバンド(両手首)を購入しました。我が家も酔い止め薬は服用しましたが、楽しみたいのでバンド購入。(バンドない人は酔って辛そうでした!)シュノーケル道具一式を身に付けいざ、海に。前の人に続いて思い切りドボン!と飛び込み、すぐに「イルカ」「海亀」「魚」と一緒に泳げて、ラッキーでした。あそんだ後は、船上でハンバーガーとフルーツのランチやスタッフと一緒にフラダンスがありました。行きのバスの中で写真($60)申し込んでいたので、船の屋上操縦室でキャプテンと記念撮影や写真も優遇してもらったりしていい記念になりました!

I think I went in August, which is the hottest time of the year. Even so, when the wind blows, it can be quite chilly. You definitely need something to wear over your swimsuit.
I visited on a Sunday in August, and there were quite a few people.
There aren't as many food stalls as in Japanese pools, so you have to wait in line for lunch.
The slides also had a decent line, so I couldn't ride them very much.
At the back, there’s a slide. I didn't initially understand how to line up, but the most popular slide (Rainbow Tube) is for two people or for the red and blue single-rider tubes. If you line up for the green tube, you'll waste time, so be careful. I saw many people having to line up again because of that. I also had to line up again at first...
I stayed for about 5 hours, excluding lunch, which means I spent around 4 hours in the pool. If I say I'm satisfied, then I am, but it's an expensive pool.
I recommend going on a weekday.
8月なので、一番暑い時期に行ったと思います。
それでも、風が吹くとまぁまぁ寒いです。
羽織るものは必要ですね
8月の日曜日に行きましたが、
そこそこ人がいます。
日本のプールほどではありませんが、売店も少ないので、
お昼は並びます。
スライダーもそこそこの行列でそんなに乗れませんでした。
奥にあるスライダー
並び方が最初はわかりませんでしたが、
一番人気のあるスライダー(虹のチューブ)は
2人乗り、または、赤と青の一人乗りチューブ用です。
緑チューブで並ぶと無駄な時間を過ごしますのでお気を付けください。
何人もそれで並びなおしをしているのを見かけました。
そういう私も最初は並びなおしになりましたが…
滞在時間 5時間 お昼ご飯の抜いて約4時間のプールですが、
満足と言えば満足
高いといえば高いプール
平日利用をお勧めします。

Thank you for participating in the Dolphin University tour. We are all very happy that you were able to experience something that is hard to come by in Japan. We hope it will remain a wonderful memory of Hawaii for your child.
There are also manta tours available on the Big Island, so we look forward to welcoming you again when you come back to Hawaii.
