Swimming alongside dolphins and sea turtles in the crystal-clear ocean was truly breathtaking! I also visited several famous snorkeling spots, but the clarity of the water and the number of fish in this tour were overwhelmingly superior. It's recommended not only for those who want to swim with dolphins and sea turtles but also for anyone looking to see a lot of fish while snorkeling. I believe it will become the best memory for ocean lovers in Hawaii. They take plenty of photos, making it a great choice for a honeymoon as well. Additionally, the guide and the crew all worked to create a fun atmosphere, allowing us to genuinely enjoy the experience. It was a tour that made me want to participate again!
透き通った海の中をイルカやウミガメが泳ぐ姿は圧巻でした!また、複数の有名なシュノーケリンスポッとも行きましたが、海の透明度や魚の数はこのツアーが圧倒的に秀でていました。(>_<)
イルカやウミガメと泳ぎたい人だけでなく、シュノーケリングで沢山の魚を見たい人にもおすすめです⑅︎◡̈︎* 海好きの人はハワイで1番の思い出になると思います。沢山の写真を撮ってくれるので、ハネムーンにもおすすめです♪
また、ガイドさんはじめ乗組員皆が楽しい雰囲気を作ろうとしてくれたため、心から楽しむことができました。また参加したいと思えたツアーでした(*^^*)

I was lucky enough to see a pod of dolphins and a sea turtle! The staff was very energetic, and I completely forgot about the early morning struggle and had an amazing time! The hula lesson was also fun.
I requested photos, and they took a lot of priority shots for us, including aerial photos that we couldn't take ourselves, which made me very satisfied.
The activities included stand-up paddleboarding, canoeing, and a waterslide. The waterslide was even more fun than I imagined, and I went down it multiple times.
The hamburgers we had on the boat were the best. I want to participate again when I come back to Oahu!
運が良く、イルカの群れと、海ガメさんも観れました!スタッフの方もテンションが高く、朝早くてキツイのも忘れてめちゃくちゃ楽しめました!フラのレッスンも面白かったです\(^ω^)/
写真を頼んだのですが、たくさん優先的に写真を撮ってもらい、自分たちでは撮れない空撮の写真ももらえて大満足です。
アクティビティでは、スタンダップパドルや、カヌーや、滑り台がありました。滑り台は想像以上なら面白くて何回もしました。
船の上で食べるハンバーガーは最高でした。
また、オアフに来たら参加したいです!!

Until just before participating, he was a beginner with low enthusiasm, but after hearing the class representative Julie's talk on the bus, his spirits lifted. As soon as we arrived and received the explanation, we quickly spotted Dolphin Sensei and jumped in without any time to worry!
While he, who was a beginner, was swimming, I, who should have been able to swim, was flustered with my first snorkeling and fins. By the time I settled down, everyone was already swimming smoothly with Dolphin Sensei. I got to swim with fish that felt like they were in an aquarium, and I even met Professor Turtle and the little professor—amazing!
The guy next to me was much more enthusiastic than before, which was great. At one point, the speaker had issues, and there was an impromptu ukulele performance. The hamburgers were delicious, and it was such a fun tour! I'm really glad I participated.
I wish I had taken more photos… I regretted it a bit, but I'm glad we got some good shots.
I want to participate again when I go to Hawaii next time, so I hope the laws don't change… but I understand it's for Dolphin Sensei, so it can't be helped.
参加直前まで、彼が海外も初、カナヅチで、テンション低めの彼でしたが、乗ったバスの学級委員長であるジュリさんのお話でテンション上がり、ついて早々説明を聞いてすぐにイルカ先生が見つかって飛び込んで!!って、心配している時間もなくあっという間に着水!!
カナヅチだった彼より、泳げたはずの私が、初のシュノーケル&フィンであたふた()
落ち着いた頃には、みんな既にスイスイ泳がれてて、イルカ先生たちと泳いでました。
水族館にいるような魚さん達とも泳げたし、ウミガメ教授や子教授とも会えてサイコー!!
隣の彼は、行く前と違って、テンションがグーーン↑↑ってあがって、良かったです。
途中で、スピーカーの調子が悪く、急遽ウクレレ演奏もあって、ハンバーガーも美味しく、楽しすぎるツアーでした✨
参加してほんとによかった❤
写真ももっと撮ってもらえば良かったなぁ…
って、後悔してはみたものの、ちゃんと撮ってくれてて良かったです★
今度ハワイに行ってもまた参加したいので、法律が変わりませんように、、
イルカ先生のためだから、仕方ないのだけど…
ALOHA!! Thank you for participating in Dolphin University! I'm glad we were able to share a fun time together. We still don't know how the laws will change in the future, but I hope you will come to see Teacher Dolphin again. We look forward to your next participation! MAHALO!!

I stayed at Aulani and used the local gathering for this experience. I made my reservation based on reviews and experiences that mentioned you could still enjoy it even if you didn't understand the language. Understanding the flow of the event in advance helps you enjoy it smoothly. Conversely, if you don't know what to expect and can't understand the language, it might reduce the enjoyment.
I participated in the "Deluxe Dinner Package." Entry for the deluxe package is guided by staff, and after receiving a drink and taking a commemorative photo, you are seated at your designated table (it doesn't seem to be based on the order of arrival). You will need to show an age verification document (like a passport) for alcoholic drinks.
You receive a card charged with $24. You can use it to order drinks or buy souvenirs. Soft drinks were around $7. Water and coffee are available for free.
You can enjoy events until the show starts. You can get tattoos, and make headpieces and arm decorations. You will need $1 for this, so be sure to prepare it in advance. Additionally, you can play games like javelin throwing and canoeing.
If you head towards the sound of the conch shell, there will be mini-events. You can see someone climbing a palm tree barehanded and dropping flowers, and you can watch a net fishing demonstration. Finally, a whole roasted pig is brought out from the ground, signaling the start of the buffet.
In the deluxe package, the food is served to you, and staff come to take drink orders. Considering that you receive a commemorative photo, I would recommend it over the standard package. They bring more food than you can eat.
The show included several interactive segments in addition to hula dancing. People celebrating anniversaries were invited on stage, and during the wedding hula dance, couples celebrating their anniversaries also danced, creating a charming, foreign atmosphere. There was a couple celebrating their 50th anniversary!
During the fire show, the park goes completely dark, but looking up, you can see a sky full of stars, which was beautiful.
While I wouldn't say it's a must-visit since it's quite far from Waikiki, if you're staying around Ko Olina, definitely check it out. My 70-year-old mother also enjoyed it very much.

The bus was about 15 minutes late, and I started to worry if they would really come to pick us up. The bus was full, and I thought the pool would be quite crowded, but at first, it was empty, and I could slide down the slides easily. Unfortunately, the biggest slide seemed to be out of service, but I had more fun than I expected.
15分ほどバスが遅れてきて、本当に迎えに来てくれるのか心配になりました。
バスは満席で、プールもかなり混雑していると思ったんですが、最初のうちはガラガラですいすいスライダー滑れました。

This time, I participated with my 3-year-old and 11-year-old children. We were told to jump into the water from the boat, and I was worried about whether my 3-year-old would be okay, but the staff kindly helped him down from the boat, and everyone was so nice and helpful.
The dolphins came up to the surface, so my younger child was able to see them and was thrilled, shouting "Dolphin!" After that, we went to a snorkeling spot that was so beautiful we could see the fish from the boat, and we were lucky enough to encounter a sea turtle! At first, my 3-year-old was scared of the deep sea since it was their first time, but by the end, they were crying because they didn't want to leave (laughs).
The staff were all kind and fun, and time flew by so quickly.
Since the boat does sway a lot, I think taking motion sickness medication is essential. Even though I wore a rented wetsuit, I felt cold in the water towards the end, so I recommend renting a wetsuit as well. They had children's sizes available, which was a big help.
I would love to participate again if I have the chance!
今回は3歳、11歳の子連れで参加。
船からはジャンプで入ります‼︎と言われ3歳の子は大丈夫かな?とハラハラしてましたがスタッフの人が船の上から優しく降ろしてくれたりと、みんな優しくて助かりました。
イルカが水面まで上がってきてくれたので、下の子もイルカを見る事が出来てイルカーー‼︎と喜んでいました☆
その後に行ったシュノーケリングポイントでは船の上からでも中の魚が見える程キレイな場所で、運良く海ガメにも遭遇出来ました‼︎
最初は初めての深い海に怖がっていた3歳児も最後は帰るのが嫌で泣くほどでした(笑)
スタッフの方々も皆んな優しく楽しくてほんとあっという間に時間が過ぎてしまいました。
どうしても船が揺れるので酔い止めは必須かなと思います。
レンタルしたウェットスーツを着てても最後の方は海の中で寒さを感じたのでウェットスーツもレンタルをオススメします。
子供用もちゃんと用意されていたので助かりました。
また機会があったら参加したいなと思いました☆

I participated because I wanted to have a new experience in Hawaii. West Oahu feels like the original landscape of Hawaii, where myths and legends remain, as it is still underdeveloped. At Kaneana Cave, being a power spot, I felt something mysterious just by being nearby. It was great to have a Japanese guide, which allowed me to ask various questions. Thank you, Akima. I was also surprised by many things at the drive-in and restrooms we stopped at, which left a strong impression. I was lucky to encounter a Hawaiian monk seal lounging on the rocks and was able to observe it slowly. During snorkeling, we also saw a sea turtle resting on the ocean floor, which made the kids very happy. The weather was good, everything went smoothly, and I was very satisfied. The photos taken by the guide were also very nice.
ハワイで新しい体験がしたくて参加しました。西オアフは開発が進んでいないので神話と伝説が残っているハワイの原風景という感じでした。カネアナ洞窟ではパワースポットというだけあって近くにいくだけで不思議な何かを感じました。日本人のガイドさんだったので色々質問でき非常によかったです。あきまさんありがとうございました。途中で寄ったドライブインやトイレなどでも驚くことも多く印象に残りました。また絶滅危惧種のハワイアンモンクシールが岩の上で寝転んでいるところに出会いゆっくり観察できラッキーでした。シュノーケリングではウミガメが海底で休んでいるところも見れて子供達も喜んでました。天気もよく、すべてうまくいきとても満足でした。ガイドさんに撮ってもらった写真もとてもよかったです。
Thank you for your review.
West Oahu is truly a place where tourists have yet to arrive in large numbers. I hope you were able to feel the essence of Hawaii... There are really many things that happen at Kaneana.
We look forward to your next participation!
Aloha,
Akima
レビューありがとうございます。
西オアフは唯一、まだまだ観光客が来ない場所です。ハワイらしさを感じていただけたかと・・ カネアナは本当にいろんなことが起きるんですよ。

There were tropical fish, but I mistakenly thought I would see them on the offshore island, so I was expecting more beautiful coral reefs. Aside from that, it was a fun crew and delicious food (the kalua pig was the best), and I also got to see dolphins and turtles. It would have been even better if I understood English! Most of the participants were foreigners. The sailing in the nice weather during the morning felt great.
熱帯魚はいましたが、沖の島に渡って観るものと勝手に勘違いしていたのでもっと綺麗なサンゴ礁と期待していました。その事を除けば楽しいクルーと美味しい食事(カルアピック最高)、イルカや亀にも会えました。英語が判ればもっと最高かな!参加者はほぼ外人。天気の良い午前中セイリングは気持ち良かったです。

The weather was cloudy.
I traveled for 40 minutes from the hotel in Honolulu to the nearest bus stop using The Bus. As soon as I arrived, I was hit by a torrential downpour.
I opened my umbrella and walked from the nearest bus stop, but I had no choice but to walk along a narrow path next to the highway, feeling anxious as I walked. After 15 minutes of walking, I finally crossed the highway and arrived at Wet 'n' Wild Hawaii. By the time I got there, the rain had stopped, and the strong sunlight pierced my body.
First, I warmed up by going to the wave pool, floating on a rubber ring as I was gradually swept toward the deeper end where I couldn't touch the bottom. I slowly swam back with a breaststroke and managed to reach the shore.
Now, the real fun begins. I eagerly headed toward the attraction I had longed for. However, since it was a weekday afternoon, there were few employees, and one attraction closed every 30 minutes while another opened.
Just then, a huge red tube attraction, which had also been featured on Ariyoshi's Summer Vacation, opened.
When riding, it was required to carry the rubber boat from the starting point to the finish line by yourself. Since it was a weekday and I could get on right away, I arrived at the starting point without waiting in line. The appearance had a point where the pipeline dropped at about a 75-degree angle, which felt like a thrilling point.
The rubber boat was designed for two people to sit facing each other, reclining on their backs.
Once everything was ready, an employee pushed us from behind with great force. The rubber boat gained momentum and sped into the pipeline.
The rubber boat spun around as it moved through the pipeline.
After a short distance, I could see the point where it dropped at a 75-degree angle. Since we were spinning, I had no idea what position we would be in when we dropped. Falling backward was sure to elicit a scream.
When we dropped, we swung side to side like on a swing in a large tube. With a large amount of water flowing, getting tossed side to side meant getting drenched in water. The ride from start to finish lasted about 30 seconds, but it felt like no time at all.
After that, I enjoyed four different slide attractions where we sped down the long pipeline in the rubber boat, as well as a slide attraction where you just used your body to flow down.
Although the time was short, from 10:30 AM to 3 PM, it was possible to enjoy and experience all the attractions.
I highly recommend visiting when you go to Hawaii.
天気は曇り。
ホノルルのホテルからザ・バスにて40分かけて移動、最寄りのバス停に到着。
着いた途端バケツをひっくり返したような豪雨に見舞われる。
傘をさし最寄りのバス停から徒歩で向かうが、ハイウェイ横の小道を歩くしか方法がなく、狭い道を不安になりながら歩いた。
歩く事15分、何とかハイウェイを超えてウェットアンドワイルドハワイに着いた。
着く頃には雨も止み、強い陽射しが身体を突き刺した。
まずは身体慣らしで波のある流れるプールへ行き、浮き輪でぷかぷか浮きながら段々と足が付かない深
くなる方へとさらわれる。
ゆっくりと平泳ぎで戻り、何とか岸へとたどり着いた。
さぁここからが本番だ。
念願のアトラクションへ足取り軽く向かう。
しかし、平日の昼間ということもあり従業員の数も少なく、1アトラクションが30分おきに閉まり別のアトラクションが開く。
ちょうど有吉の夏休みでも放送された巨大な赤い筒状の中をゴムボートに乗り、ジェットコースターのように流れるアトラクションが開いた。
乗る際はゴムボートをゴール地点からセルフで運ぶ事が前提となる。
平日の昼間で直ぐに乗れることもあり、並ばずにスタート地点へ到着。
外観はパイプラインが75度程の角度で降るポイントがあり、絶叫ポイントだと感じた。
ゴムボートは2人乗りだと向かい合わせに乗る仕様となっており仰向けで座る。
準備が整うと従業員が後ろから勢いよく押す。
勢いがついたゴムボートは水の流れに乗りスピードを増しパイプラインの中に入る。
ゴムボートがクルクル回りながらパイプラインの中を進む。
少し進むと75度の角度で降るポイントが見えてくる。
クルクル回っているのでどんな体制で降るかわからない。
後ろから降ると絶叫は必須だ。
降ると大きい筒状の中にブランコのように左右に振られる。
水も大量に流れてる為、左右に振られると顔から水が掛かりずぶ濡れとなる。
スタートからゴールまで約30秒程だがあっという間だった。
その後は長いパイプラインの中をゴムボートで勢いよく降る4種類の滑り台アトラクションや、身体のみで流れる滑り台アトラクションを乗った。
時間は朝10時半〜15時と短いが全てのアトラクションを楽しんで乗りきることが可能。
是非ハワイに行った時は行く事をオススメする。

My first visit to Wet and Wild was something I had been looking forward to, but unfortunately, it rained, and the temperature didn't even reach 20°C, making it a very cold day. It takes about 30 minutes from Waikiki. Inside the car, they provided safety instructions and lunch details in English followed by Japanese (I was a bit worried at first thinking it would only be in English).
Even after arriving, the rain didn't stop. It was not just the rain; it was so cold that most Japanese visitors were in the warm jacuzzi. (laughs)
After riding a few slides, we had lunch. I ordered a hamburger and fries set for $10.35 (including tax), and I thought the taste was just average.
In terms of size, it felt a bit small considering it’s supposed to be three times the size of Tokyo Dome. There were a few Japanese tourists on the tour and some locals, but not many people from other countries. Depending on the time, some slides were open while others were not. Since the timetable wasn't very clear, it's best to ride the slides whenever you want to.
After having lunch and riding a few other attractions, the wind picked up, and it got too cold to continue. I was disappointed, wishing it had been sunny. It might be good for kids, though. The entrance fee is high, and I was surprised at how expensive the lockers were (the large size costs $18). You can set your own password and open and close it as many times as you want, which was a nice feature.
The quality of the slides was high, with many that you wouldn't find in Japan. I think those who enjoy thrill rides would have a great time.
はじめてのwet and wild
心待ちにしていましたが、あいにくの雨、、気温も20℃行かず、とても寒い日に当たってしまいました、、
ワイキキからは30分程度。車内では注意事項や、昼食の説明などが英語→日本語の順番であります。(はじめ英語だけかと思い少し心配しました)
着いてからも雨は降り止まず、、雨だけならまだしも、寒くて、日本人のほとんどは、あったかいジャグジーに入ってました。(笑)
いくつか、スライダーに乗った後に昼食。ハンバーガーとポテトのセット$10.35(税込)味は普通だと思います。
規模的には、東京ドーム3個分という割にこじんまり。
ツアーで来た日本人と、ローカルの人達がポツポツ。。他国の人はあまりみませんでした。
時間によってスライダーがやってたりやってなかったり。
タイムテーブルなどもよくわからないので、乗りたいと思った時に乗っておくべきです。
昼食を食べた後、他のアトラクションに少し乗った後には、風も吹いて来て、寒すぎて入れませんでした。
晴れてればなあと残念です、、
キッズにはいいのかもしれません。
入場が高い割には、ロッカーも高くてびっくりです。(大サイズは18ドル)
パスワードを自分で設定して、開け閉めは何回でも出来るので、その点は良かったです。
スライダーのクオリティはたかくて、日本では無いようなものばかりでした。
絶叫系が好きな人には楽しめると思います。

Since it was a weekday in October, we were able to enjoy almost all the attractions with a wait time of about 10 minutes multiple times. For some reason, there was one slide that had a wait time of an hour. When the wait is long, it gets cold with the wind.
It was great that we had transportation included since it is far from the Waikiki area.
10月の平日ということもあってか、ほとんどのアトラクションが待ち時間10分ほどで何度も楽しめました。

From a perfectly on time bus pick up to a great day on the water, this tour is definitely worth the money. Weather was a bit ordinary but crew did a fantastic job of making sure we all had fun and were looked after. Great hospitality, fantastic crew, awesome day!

During my first snorkeling experience, I almost had a mini panic at first. However, with the help of the staff, I was able to safely meet the dolphins. It was truly wonderful. There was also a baby dolphin, and it was so cute. I also got to see a honu (sea turtle). My daughter is saying that she definitely wants to participate again the next time we go to Hawaii.
初シュノーケルで海に入って最初はプチパニックになりそうでしたが。スタッフの方に手助けしていただき、無事にイルカに会うことができました。本当に素敵でした。赤ちゃんイルカもいて本当にかわいかった。ホヌにも会えました。娘は次回ハワイに行った時はまた絶対に参加したいと言っています。
ALOHA!! Thank you for participating in Dolphin University! We are honored to have helped create wonderful memories. Please do come back with your family to visit Dolphin Middle School and University! MAHALO!!
ALOHA!! この度はイルカ大学にご参加いただきありがとうございました! 良い思い出を作るお手伝いが出来、光栄です。 また是非、ご家族でイルカ中学・大学に遊びにいらしてくださいね! MAHALO!!

The arrangements were smooth as well. The pick-up and drop-off after arrival were also seamless, making it a great value and very convenient. I will definitely use this service again next time.
手配までもスムーズです。到着後もスムーズに送迎してもらえるので料金もお得で大変便利でした。次回もまた利用させて頂きます。

We were blessed with many dolphins! They swam around us in circles. I missed seeing the manta ray, but some people were able to see sea turtles.
We had a packed schedule with snorkeling, stand-up paddleboarding, canoeing, jumping off the boat, and even learning hula dancing! It was a fantastic time, and not only did we enjoy the ocean activities, but the staff were all truly wonderful, which made the experience even more enjoyable. The bus ride there with the energetic lessons really boosted our spirits and was the best.
I apologize for the delay in sharing my experience. I look forward to visiting again when I go to Honolulu!
たくさんんのイルカ達に恵まれました♪私たちの周りをくるくると泳いでくれたり♪
マンタに、私は見逃しましたがウミガメも見れた方もいたとか^^
シュノーケリングや、スタンドアップパドルにカヌー、船から飛び込んだり、フラダンスを教えてもらったりと、終始盛りだくさん!
海遊びを満喫させて頂けたのももちろん、スタッフの方が皆本当に素敵でそれもあって楽しさ倍増でした☆
行きのバスからのマシンガン授業も気分を高めて頂き最高でした。
最後に体験談の書き込みが遅くなり申し訳ありませんした。
また、ホノルルへ行く際にはお邪魔しますので、よろしくお願いいたします^^

I was able to experience a uniqueness that I can't find in Japan. The shuttle service arrived on time, allowing me to enjoy myself without worry. It became a wonderful memory.
日本にはない面白さを感じることができました。送迎も時間通りに来ていただき、安心して遊ぶことができました。いい思い出となりました。

I participated in the Dolphin University on April 16th.
In a word, it was a dream-like experience.
We departed early in the morning before sunrise. We were greeted by the energetic Julie, and headed to the harbor on the west coast where the boat would depart. On the bus, Julie provided lively and enjoyable explanations, sharing stories about dolphins and important notes that got our adrenaline pumping even before we arrived.
We were told that there was a high probability of seeing dolphins, but since it was nature, I had some concerns.
However, shortly after the boat set off, we encountered a pod of dolphins. The staff worked together tirelessly to ensure we could see the dolphins.
Dozens of dolphins slowly passed right beneath us, and it was so moving that it is still etched in my memory.
After that, we moved to a point where we could see turtles. The visibility that day was excellent, and we could see all the way to the bottom, so we were able to spot the turtles quickly. We were able to see both a large turtle and a small turtle, which was truly satisfying.
After seeing the turtles, we had free time in the ocean. We enjoyed various activities like jumping off the boat, snorkeling, kayaking, and stand-up paddleboarding. After lunch, we all danced the hula together, bringing the tour to a close.
I am truly grateful to all the staff who kept us entertained until the end. If I have the opportunity to participate again, I hope to go see the dolphins with this same crew.
It was the best time. Thank you very much.
4月16日のイルカ大学に参加させていただきました。
一言で言えば、夢のような時間でした。
朝、日が昇らない時間から出発。
元気が良いジュリーさんに迎えられ、ボートが出発する西海岸の港へと向かいます。
バスの中ではジュリーさんの威勢のいい楽しい説明があり、イルカの話や注意事項など到着する前からアドレナリンを放出させられます。
ほとんどの確率でイルカには会えるとのことでしたが、自然相手なので多少の心配もありました。
しかし、ボートが出発してすぐにイルカの群れに遭遇。
スタッフの皆さんも一丸となって私たちにイルカを見せてくれようと必死になって頑張ってくました。
何十頭ものイルカが私たちの真下をゆっくりと通りすぎ、とても感動的で今でも目に焼き付いています。
その後、カメの見られるポイントへ移動。
その日は透明度も良く、底までしっかりと見えたので、カメもすぐに見つけられることできました。
大きいカメと小さいカメの二匹を見ることができ、本当に満足のいく内容でした。
カメを見た後は、そのまま海で自由時間。
ボートから飛び込んだり、シュノーケリング、カヤック、サップと各々海でのアクティビティーを楽しんだ私たちは、昼食後皆でフラを踊り、ツアーの幕が下りました。
最後まで楽しませてくれたスタッフの皆さんには本当に感謝しています。
また参加する機会があれば、同じこのクルーと一緒にイルカを見に行けたらいいなと思いました。
最高の時間でした。ありがとうございました。
ALOHA! PYKC,

We participated as a group of 11 from 4 families. We joined a tour that included lunch and drinks, and it was a great decision not to have to carry cash. It was nice to enjoy lunch at a table with a roof, taking our time.
The water park was a hit with the kids, from elementary school to college, who had a blast playing. There are changing rooms available, so it's no problem to change into swimsuits on-site.
I had previously gone by rental car, but taking the shuttle bus for pick-up and drop-off is definitely more convenient! I recommend this for those who want to have an exciting time!
4家族11人で参加しました。
ランチ、ドリンク付きのツアーに参加しましたが、お金を持ち歩くことをしなくていいので、正解でした。ランチは屋根のあるテーブルでゆっくり食べれてよかったです。
ウォーターパークは、小学生〜大学生までの子供たちは大喜びでたくさん遊びました。
水着は着替える更衣室はあるので、現地で着替えるのは問題ないです。
以前、レンタカーで行ったことあるのですが、行き帰り送り迎えのバスはやはり楽でいいですね!
エキサイティングに遊びたい方には、おすすめです!

The bus rides to and from were very comfortable.
The entrance right after opening was good!
I was disappointed that the slide I wanted to ride the most was out of operation.
It was also unfortunate that I couldn't use the spa.
The barbecue and private bodyboarding made the kids very happy, which was great.
行き帰りのバスはとても快適。
オープンすぐの入場もGood!
一番乗りたかったスライダーが運転停止になってて残念。
スパも入れず残念。
バーベキューと貸切のボディボードには子供達も大喜びで良かったです

We participated with two adults and three children. The park is large and offers a variety of experiences, so be careful as you might run out of time. During lunch, there are often long lines at the food stalls, so it's better to manage your time wisely!
大人2人子供3人で参加しました。
パーク内は広く色々な体験ができます、その為に以外に時間が足りなくなるので注意です。
昼などは売店等かなり並びますので上手く時間を使った方が良いです!
