Discover Oahu’s North Shore from Waikiki with The Surf Bus - Snorkel, Kayak, SUP & Waimea Falls
Fun Time on Surf Bus
Posted on: 2009/12/02

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.

Since it's far from the city center, it's better to leave your accommodation early to enjoy it. There are many slides that can be enjoyed by both children and adults.

中心部からは遠いので、早めに滞在先を出て行かれる方が楽しめます。子供から大人まで楽しめるスライダーが沢山あります。

KeI

A fantastic pod of dolphins appeared right nearby, and I was so excited! I was thrilled to see multiple dolphin spins right in front of me, along with a baby dolphin, and I even got to hear the dolphins' "squeaks." I was completely satisfied! In addition to the dolphins, there were sea turtles and beautiful fish, and in the distance, I could see whales swimming—what an emotional experience! I truly had a wonderful time. The staff were all bright, kind, and full of service spirit! They even performed hula dancing and played the ukulele.

最高なイルカの群れがすぐ近くに現れ、大興奮!
目の前繰り広げられる何回ものイルカのスピンジャンプ、イルカの赤ちゃん、終いには「キューキュー」というイルカの声まで聞け大満足でした!
イルカの他にもウミガメやきれいな魚達、さらに遠くにはクジラも泳いでおり感動の連続!本当に幸せな一時を過ごすことができました。
スタッフも皆さん明るく優しくサービス精神旺盛!フラダンスやウクレレを披露してくれました。

Waking up early was worth it! I had a truly wonderful experience. After praying and throwing flowers into the sea, we set off! Dolphins appeared right away. During snorkeling, they swam close enough to reach out and even we got to see a baby dolphin. The handmade burgers made on the boat were also fantastic. Onboard, we were able to witness the rare male hula performed by a local boy. It was a tour that satisfied me from start to finish. I definitely want to participate again!

早起きした甲斐がありました!とても素晴らしい体験ができました。
お祈りをして花を海の投げ入れてから出発!すぐにイルカが現れてくれました。
シュノーケルの時も手の届きそうな距離を泳いでいましたし、いるかの赤ちゃんまで見る事ができました。船上で作る手作りハンバーガーも最高でした。船上ではロコボーイの珍しい男性フラを拝見することが出来ました。最初から最後まで大満足させてくれるツアーでした。また是非参加したいです。

It was moving!
感動!
Posted on: 2009/10/30

I was worried that I wouldn't be able to enjoy myself since I can't swim. I wondered if I would be able to see dolphins properly from the boat.
However! I was able to encounter dolphins clearly from the boat, and even a pod of them!
I was so moved and healed by seeing dolphins for the first time.
Although I couldn't dive into the water, I had a fulfilling time seeing dolphins up close, kayaking, enjoying hamburgers made by the captain on board, and watching the crew dance the hula and play the ukulele. It was a tour that allowed even non-swimmers to fully enjoy the Hawaiian sea.
All the staff were very cheerful and friendly! I was able to create the best memories in Hawaii. Thank you!

私は泳ぐことができなく、楽しめるのかな?船の上からでもちゃんとイルカが見れるのかな?と心配でした。
しかし!船の上からでもきちんとイルカに出会う事ができました。しかもイルカの群れ!
初めて見るイルカにとっても感動し、癒されました。
海中に潜ることはできませんでしたが、間近でイルカの群れを見れたり、カヤックにのったり、キャプテンが船上でハンバーガーを作ってくれたり、クルーの人達がフラを踊ったり、ウクレレを弾いてくれたりととても充実した時間を送ることができました。泳げない人でも十分にハワイの海を楽しめるツアーでした。
スタッフの人皆とても明るくてフレンドリー!ハワイでの最高の思い出を作ることができました。ありがとうございます。

Posted on: 2009/10/25

The pool is available in both Japan and Guam, but this pool is truly on par with Hawaii. I lost track of time. The waves in the wave pool are incredible, and the slide is just amazing—both the kids and moms were left in awe. I will definitely join again when I come back to Hawaii.

プールは日本にもグアムにもありますが、ここのプールはさずがハワイ級。時間がたつのを忘れてしまいました。波がくるプールの波も半端じゃないし、スライダーは凄いの一言で子供もママも放心状態になっていました。またハワイに来たときには参加します。

Discover Oahu’s North Shore from Waikiki with The Surf Bus - Snorkel, Kayak, SUP & Waimea Falls
Loved It
Posted on: 2009/10/12

We booked this tour on line before arriving in Waikiki. Wondered if we had made a mistake, but the tour was great. We were picked up on schedule exactly as promised. Our tour guide, Sam, was informative and knowledgeable about the island and the culture.

The best part of this tour is the choices! The next best thing is how much time you have on your own to enjoy the activity choices. Couldn't have been better. Absolutely loved it! Would go again.

Posted on: 2009/10/10

Hello All!
My husband and I took this tour on Tuesday, Oct 6th, 2009. It was the best tour ever! North Shore is beautiful and absolutely amazing. We had one activity and rode a beach cruiser to all the beaches. We hung out at Waimea Beach and the waves were pretty insane. There was a surfing competition on the other beach. We saw sea turtles and that was a SIGHT! Our tour guide Sam is the definitely the coolest guide ever. We 100% recommend this activity to everyone. No joke. If you don't believe, you guys can contact us at mdot42@hotmail.com. =D

このプール、サイコー!
Posted on: 2009/10/06

Even though we went to Hawaii, at the beach, it felt like we were just soaking in the ocean as if we were in a hot spring while holding onto a float... The hotel pool had a "no diving" rule with large floats...

Since we came to this tropical island, we signed up for this tour so that our fifth-grade child could have fun. It's a bit far from Waikiki, but the shuttle service made us feel secure♪ Not only the kids, but the adults also had a great time and enjoyed themselves. When I asked my child, "What is your favorite memory of Hawaii?" the answer was that this tour was the most fun! I want to go again!☆

Even our family members who can't speak any English enjoyed themselves without any issues♪

せっかくハワイに行っても海では
『浮輪につかまってはいるものの、温泉に入ってるかのように海に浸かってるだけ』…。
ホテルのプールは『大きな浮輪・飛び込み禁止』…。

せっかく常夏の島にきたんだから小学5年生の子供がはしゃげるようにとこのツアーに申し込みました。
ワイキキからは遠いけど送迎もあるので安心♪
子供だけでなく大人も十分、はしゃいで楽しめました。
子供に『ハワイの思い出は?』と聞くと、このツアーが一番楽しかった!また行きたい! という答えが返ってきます☆

英語が全く話せない我が家のメンバーでも不自由なく楽しめました♪

You can swim with wild dolphins.
野生のイルカと泳げる
Posted on: 2009/09/27

I went on September 21.
There are other tours where you can swim with dolphins, but this is the only one where you can swim with wild dolphins!

The price is a bit high, but I think you'll encounter more fish and swimming turtles than at Hanauma Bay.

The website also has testimonials, images, and videos for reference: www.iruka.com

9月21日に行ってきました。
他にもイルカと泳げるツアーはありますが、野生のイルカと泳げるのはココだけ!

ちょっと値段は高いですが、ハナウマ湾に行くよりも多くの魚や泳ぐ亀に出会えると思います。

ホームページにも体験談や画像、動画が載っているので参考に

I was moved by the pod of dolphins!
イルカの群れに感動!
Posted on: 2009/09/23

I had my first encounter with wild dolphins!

While enjoying the peaceful scenery, I headed to Waianae Harbor on the west side of Oahu! After about five minutes out on the boat in the clear, beautiful sea, we got ready to swim. While changing into a wetsuit (top half) and life jacket with careful instructions, a pod of dolphins appeared!

A group of dolphins was gracefully swimming slowly near the boat! There were about 20 to 30 of them in total. Some dolphins even jumped energetically! Upon closer inspection, I saw baby dolphins jumping too!!!

It seems I was lucky this time, as the pod performed near the boat for over 30 minutes. Those who swam closer could even hear the dolphins' calls♪

After that, we went snorkeling at a place called "Dragon Palace," which is full of sea turtles! A sea turtle came right next to the boat, so I was really glad to see it up close.

The BBQ on the boat after getting tired from all the excitement and the hula performed by the local staff was also great.

Thank you for this precious experience!

初めて野生のイルカに会ってきました!

のどかな風景を眺めつつ、オアフ島西部ワイアナエ・ハーバーへ!透き通っててきれいな海をボートで沖へ5分ほど行ったところで、泳ぐ準備をしました。丁寧な説明を受けながら、ウェットスーツ(上半身)とライフジャケットに着替えていたら、イルカの群れが!

ボートの近くをイルカの群れが優雅にゆ~っくりと泳いでいるんです!合計で20~30頭くらいかな?中には勢いよくジャンプを披露してくれるイルカも!よーく見たら、赤ちゃんイルカも一緒にジャンプ!!!

今回はラッキーだったみたいで、イルカの群れがボート近くで30分以上パフォーマンスを披露してくれてました。近くまで泳いでいった人は、イルカの鳴き声とかも聞こえたんだとか♪

その後、竜宮城と呼ばれるウミガメが沢山いるところでシュノーケリング!ボートすぐ横にウミガメがでてきてくれたので、すごく近くで見れてよかったです。

はしゃぎ疲れた後の船上BBQでの腹ごしらえやロコスタッフによるフラもよかったです。

貴重な体験を有難うございます!

Doors-Off Paradise Helicopter Tour & Landing from Kapolei [Not Operating]
AMAZING AMAZING!!
Posted on: 2009/09/15

Everyone has to do this. I couldn't imagine going to Hawaii and not getting a tour of the beautiful island. We also did the Ranch landing which brought us down this this beautiful valley where they filmed lost, godzilla, and jurassic park. I for sure recommend the landing it was so beautiful :) The operation is a family run business and they are all so friendly and the pilot was very informative and quite funny. He told us all about the island and made sure every side of the helicopter got a chance to see each sight. It is somethign you should do right at the beginning of the trip to get familiar with the island. It is worth the money!!! I booked it as a surprise for my finance and he couldn't stop talking about it :) I recommend surprising your travel partner with the tour, it was incredible. If you don't book this every time you see a helicopter flying around the isalnd you will regret not doing this so just do it :) Best part of the trip.

Oahu West Coast Sunset Cruise with Cocktails from Waianae - Hawaii Nautical
Very Relaxing!!
Posted on: 2009/09/15

We did the sunset cruise and it was great. We walked to the marina from our hotel (Marriott Beach Club) and were surprised how friendly the staff on board was. They were always offering us drinks and chatting with us. Sitting on the net of the boat was fun and the sunset was romantic. I had champagne and my finance had the cruise's "special" drink which had 3 shots of rum in it. The experience was romantic but a family would enjoy this too. There were a few groups of friend on board that seemed to enjoy themselves. It is a nice end to the day, not too expensive, and very relaxing. Recommended for everyone!!

Posted on: 2009/09/12

On September 8th, I enrolled at the prestigious Dolphin University for the first time. Since I was a child, it has been my dream to swim with dolphins, and I finally got to fulfill that dream this time.

As others have written, the excitement of encountering dolphins and swimming with them is beyond measure. This is something you must experience for yourself and truly feel. The other tour activities are also plentiful, so there's no doubt you'll be satisfied.

Moreover, the staff members are incredibly kind. They welcomed us with warm smiles, and I could feel their genuine effort to make our experience enjoyable.

What left the biggest impression on me during this tour was not only swimming with the dolphins but also Yuriko's feelings towards the dolphins and her message to us. I was truly moved by this. You might think it's an exaggeration, but after listening to Yuriko's stories on the boat, I feel like my perspective on life has slightly changed. I realized the importance of cherishing each day, remembering to be grateful, and valuing who I am now.

There may be other tours that offer "swimming with wild dolphins," but I believe there are many experiences that can only be found at this prestigious university.

I will definitely participate in this tour again! And when I have friends visiting Hawaii, I want to recommend this tour without hesitation.

9月8日、初めて名門イルカ大学に入学しました。
私は小さい頃からイルカと一緒に泳ぐことが夢だったのですが、
今回ようやくその夢を叶えることができました。

他の方も書いている通り、イルカと遭遇し一緒に泳げたときの感動といったら、もう計り知れません。
これは実際に体験して、ぜひ感じて欲しいです。
他のツアー内容も盛り沢山で、満足することは間違いなしです。

そして、スタッフの方は本当に親切です。
とても温かい笑顔で私たちを迎えてくれ、楽しませようと必死になってくれてる気持ちが伝わりました。

私がこのツアーで一番印象に残ったことは、イルカと一緒に泳げたことはもちろんですが、ユリコさんのイルカに対する思いや、
私たちへのメッセージです。
これには本当に心を打たれました。
大げさだと思うかもしれませんが、船の中で百合子さんが話してくれたお話を聞いて、人生感が少し変わった気がします。
一日一日を大切にし、日々感謝することを忘れず、今の自分を大切にしようと思うことができました。

『野生のイルカと一緒に泳ぐ』このような内容のツアーは他も探せば出てくるかもしれません。
ですが、この名門大学でしか味わえないことは沢山あると思います。

絶対にまたこのツアーに参加しにいきます!!
そしてハワイに行く友達がいるときは、
迷わずこのツアーをお勧めしたいと思っています。

sea turtle was magical
Posted on: 2009/09/11

The ride from Waikiki was long, but the driver entertained us with great facts. The hike to the waterfall was nice. Unfortunately there seemed to not be enough time to do two activities in the morning. We hiked back down to the beach and only had enough time to jump in the water before pick up. I missed jumping off the rocks:( The kayak was relaxing and provided us with a great tan!

I was able to meet a dolphin!
イルカに会えました♪♪
Posted on: 2009/09/10

I was really looking forward to this tour because it promised that we would definitely see dolphins... and we encountered a pod of dolphins about 4 to 5 times!! When we dropped into the sea at a dolphin spotting location and floated for a while, a few dolphins came over... The guide said, "Dolphins here!" and we could even hear the dolphins' sounds. It was just amazing!!

After that, we moved by boat to a spot where we could see lots of fish and enjoyed snorkeling. When I held out some bread, the little yellow fish came right up to eat it. It felt like being in a natural aquarium, and we also enjoyed kayaking, making it accessible for a wide range of ages. There were actually little kids, pregnant women, and grandfathers participating with their grandchildren! For those who are not confident swimmers, the staff is there to support you, so there's absolutely no need to worry. You really shouldn't miss this; it's an incredible experience!

イルカに必ず会えるとのことで、とっても楽しみにしていたツアーでしたが・・・イルカの群れに4~5回は遭遇できました!!
イルカに出会えるスポットで海にチャポンと落ちて、しばらく海に漂っていたところ、イルカが数頭でやってきて・・・ガイドさんが「イルカここぉぉ~」と教えてくれます。キューキューとイルカの声まで聞こえましたよ。もう感激です!!
その後はまた船で移動して、魚がいっぱい見られるスポットでのシュノーケリングを楽しみました。手にパンを持つと、黄色いお魚さんがパクパク食べにくるんですよ。天然の水族館に癒され、カヤックも楽しめたりと幅広い年齢層での参加が可能と思います。実際にちっちゃいお子さん、妊婦さん、孫たちと一緒に参加のおじいちゃんなどおられましたよ♪泳ぎが苦手な方は、スタッフさんがついてサポートしてくれるので心配は全くありません☆行かなきゃ損っていうくらい最高の時間を過ごせますよ

Posted on: 2009/09/06

I participated with children, and thanks to the very attentive Yuriko, we had a great time. We had malasadas for breakfast, so even though the mornings were early, the kids were fine. The sea was calm and very clear, and when we saw a pod of dolphins, it was truly healing. The boat didn't rock much, so there were no seasick people, and everyone was able to enjoy themselves happily.

子供ずれで参加しましたが、とても面倒見の良い百合子さんのおかげで、楽しく過ごせました。
朝ごはん代わりに、マラサダを食べられるので、朝が早いのですが、子供も大丈夫でした。
海も穏やかで、とても透明度がよく、イルカのむれを見たときは、ほんとに気持ちがいやされました。
船も、あまり揺れないので、酔っている人もなく、みんなハッピーに過ごせました。

Posted on: 2009/09/01

We participated as a family of three on August 25th (our child is a first-grade boy). I might have been the most excited when we encountered a pod of dolphins. I think it's rare to find a tour where you can swim with them. When we met a turtle, my husband jumped into the sea and touched its shell. Surprisingly, our child got really into paddle surfing and kept challenging himself until the end. It was a truly fulfilling tour that kept both kids and adults engaged. Also, the tour guides were really warm-hearted people, and I definitely want to participate again. Thank you, Yuriko, for keeping the atmosphere lively until the end!

8月25日に家族3人で参加しました。(子供は小1の男の子)イルカの群れに遭遇した時は私が一番興奮してたかも・・。一緒に泳ぐことのできるツアーはなかなかないと思います。亀に出会ったときは主人も海にとびこみ甲羅を触っていました。子供は意外にもパドルサーフィンにはまり最後まで挑戦していました。子供も大人も飽きることなく本当に充実したツアーです。あと、ツアーの方々が本当に温かい人たちで是非また参加したいです。ゆりこさん、最後まで明るくもりあげてくださってありがとうございました!

It's an amazing wave.
すごい波です
Posted on: 2009/08/27

All the attractions were interesting, but I was surprised by the intensity of the waves in the wave pool; it left the biggest impression on me. The large waves are incomparable to the wave pools I've been to in Japan. If you let your guard down, you might get knocked over by the waves and get hurt.

I also participated in a bodyboarding lesson in this big wave pool. It's fun, but for someone like me, an older woman, or for young children in elementary school, it can be physically demanding. The waves are really big, so it can be a bit dangerous; I saw several people who had fallen over and gotten scrapes.

The barbecue lunch was nothing special, but the fruit was delicious. Considering that the only other lunch options available were expensive hot dogs and hamburgers, I thought, "Well, that's okay."

Food and drinks are not allowed to be brought in, and there was an explanation on the bus that bags would be checked at the entrance, but in the end, my bag went unchecked.

どのアトラクションも面白かったのですが、波がくるプールの波の荒さにびっくり、一番印象に残りました。
日本で行ったことのある波プールとは比較にならない大波です。気を抜いてると波に倒されて怪我しそうです。
この大波のプールでボディーボードレッスンっていうのにも参加しました。楽しいですが、私のようなおばさんや小学校低学年の子供には体力的にきついです。ほんとに大波なのでちょっと危険でもあり、ひっくりかえって擦り傷をつくっている人を何人か見かけました。
バーベキューランチはぱっとしませんが、フルーツはおいしかったです。これ以外に買えるランチが値段の高いホットドッグやハンバーガーしかないことを考えると、ま、いいか、って感じ。
食べ物飲み物は持ち込み禁止で、入り口でバッグをチェックしますってバスの中で説明がありましたが、結局バッグはノーチェックで入れました。

The activity itself is something you must participate in when you come to Hawaii; it's filled with fun that you definitely can't experience in Japan. I would like to request an earlier hotel pickup time to enjoy it even more.

アクティビティーそのものは、ハワイに来れば必ず参加している、絶対日本では味わえない楽しさ満点のものです。もっと楽しみたいので、ホテルピックアップ時刻を早くしてもらいたいと思います。

Premium Ko Olina Snorkel Cruise with Dolphin Watching, Lunch Buffet & Drinks - Ocean Joy Cruises
Love the staff
Posted on: 2009/08/18

But hated wearing the "bright yellow floaties". At first, when these were pulled out, I was saying..."oh crap, you've got to be kidding!" But then when we hit the water, I realized it's not such big deal to look like a dork, we all do. The water was amazing until I got hit in the nose by a fellow dork. My snorkling was done at that point. I was greeted by the friendly on board crew and a warm shower. The entire trip was completely worth it. The two above neg's were not a big deal. The crew, the sites, the water, the food, drinks and friendly banter of fellow passengers was great. I highly recommend this cruise. Thank you.

It's a greedy tour!
欲張りなツアーですよ!
Posted on: 2009/08/16

On August 12, 2009 (Wednesday), our family of three (two adults and one child, age 8) participated. We were worried that the tour might be canceled due to the hurricane forecast for August 11, but it was confirmed to go ahead. Our family is a heavy dolphin fan, having participated in "Private Dolphin Middle School" during the same period in the summer of 2008 and again at the end of 2008, where we encountered dolphins and swam with them both times. This time, we decided to advance to the prestigious Dolphin University, which has upgraded its offerings. Swimming with wild dolphins is extremely rare worldwide and can be considered a high-potential tour. Generally, dolphin watching tours are more common, but Dolphin Middle School and this university allow you to swim with dolphins, making it a worthwhile activity to pay for in Hawaii. Conversely, it’s an experience you can’t have unless you participate in the tour.

Our pick-up was by Yuriko, the class representative from Private Dolphin Middle School, in a yellow van. However, the weather was rainy. It was raining enough in Waikiki that we occasionally needed umbrellas. There were several other groups participating, but the rainy drive dampened the mood. In such circumstances, Yuriko kept our spirits high and encouraged us. We enjoyed freshly made Leonard's malasadas on our way to Waianae Harbor.

Waianae Harbor is located in the West Oahu region, which is a dry area. Because of this, the weather was different from Waikiki, and we were lucky to have cloudy weather with occasional sunshine that day.

Additionally, we were fortunate to encounter a large pod of dolphins just five minutes after departure! We were satisfied to see the dolphins up close, and it was great to hear their sounds. After swimming with the dolphins, we headed to the underwater palace with tropical fish! There, we could swim with turtles and tropical fish, and if we got bored, we could play with kayaks or paddle surfing.

It was a greedy tour with swimming with dolphins, snorkeling with tropical fish and turtles, paddle surfing, and hula dancing.

Lastly, I would like to note the differences between the university and middle school for your reference.
■ Differences ■
? Boat
→ Middle school uses a boat, while the university uses a catamaran.
? Number of times swimming with dolphins
→ Middle school has three times, while the university has one time.
? Meals
→ Middle school provides snacks on the return bus.

2009年8月12日(水)に3人家族(大人2名、子供1名(8才))で参加しました。8月11日にハリケーンが来るということで天気も曇りがち、明日は中止かな・・・と思っていたら催行が決定しました。私たち家族は、08年夏の同じ時期に「私立イルカ中学」に参加し、08年の年末にも「私立イルカ中学」に参加したヘビーなイルカファンで、これまで2回ともイルカと遭遇し一緒に泳ぐことができたので、今回はバージョンアップした名門イルカ大学へ進学を決めました。野生のイルカと泳げるツアーというのは、世界でも極めて稀で、ポテンシャルの高いツアーと言えると思います。一般的にはイルカウォッチングツアーなるものが主ですが、イルカ中学、この大学はイルカと一緒に泳ぐことができ、ハワイのアクティビティーの中でもお金を出して参加する価値があるものだと思います。逆に言えばツアーに参加しないと経験できないアクティビティーです。

 お迎えは私立イルカ中学の学級委員長のゆりこさんです。黄色いバンでお出迎え。しかしながら天気は雨。ワイキキは時折傘が必要なぐらいの雨が降っていました。私たち以外にも数組のグループが参加していましたが、雨のドライブでテンションは下げ下げ。そのような中、ゆりこさんがテンション上げ上げで励ましてくれます。出来立てホヤホヤのレナーズマラサダを食べながらワイアエナ港へ迎います。

 ワイアエナ港は西オアフ地域にあり、乾燥地帯。そのかいあり、ワイキキとは天気が異なり、当日は曇り時々晴れという天気でラッキーでした。

 またラッキーなことに出航して5分でイルカの大群に遭遇! 今までの経験より近くでイルカを見ることができ満足!イルカの声も聞けて本当によかったです。イルカと泳いだ後は、熱帯魚のいる竜宮城へGO! そこでは亀や熱帯魚と泳ぐことができ、飽きたことにはカヤックやパドルサーフィンで遊ぶことができます。

 イルカと泳いだり、熱帯魚、カメさんのいる場所でシュノーケルしたり、パドルサーフィンをしたりフラダンスをしたりと欲張りなツアーです。

 最後に大学と中学の違いですが、みなさんの参考になればと思い記述しておきます。
 ■違う所■
?ボート
→中学はボート、大学はカタマラン。
?イルカと泳ぐ回数
→中学は3回。大学は1回。
?食事
→中学は帰りのバスでスナック。

I got to see dolphins!!
イルカに逢えました!!
Posted on: 2009/08/14

At first, about half of the people were seasick, in a chain reaction.

But somehow, we managed to get into the water and met a lot of dolphins.

I wondered if we would really encounter them in such a vast ocean, but around 30 dolphins were swimming slowly.

If possible, I would love to reunite on a calm day at sea again.

はじめは、半分くらいの人が船酔いで、連鎖状態。

でも何とか水中に入って、たくさんのイルカ君たちに逢えました。

こんな広い海で、本当に逢えるのかな??
って思いましたが、30頭くらいが、ゆっくり泳いでいました。

出来れば、また海の穏やかな日に、再会したいです。

Wet 'n' Wild Hawaii Water Park Admission Tickets
Kids Park???
Posted on: 2009/08/12

ok this water park was definitely not as advertised as it is undergoing renovations. also, there was no 7-story drop as advertised, there are just some crappy slides in it's place. the park is more directed to kids. not all slides were open, they would alternate opening different one's and the lineups were HUGE as a result. Da Flowrider was a sick ride for anyone wanting a surfing experience, and the simulated wave pool was cool too. The staff were definitely excellent though.

Not recommended for anyone looking for a adrenaline rush from slides!

otherwise, have fun!

We participated as a family of four!
家族4人で参加しました!
Posted on: 2009/08/02

I was a bit anxious because I have a 5-year-old daughter, but after seeing that younger children were participating on this site, I decided to join in.

Once on board, we sang Hawaiian songs with the local crew and were already having a great time. We were welcomed by a double rainbow and got to see many dolphins in the ocean. I didn't notice, but my son and husband were thrilled to hear the dolphins' chirping sounds, which was a different experience from the aquarium. My daughter couldn't snorkel very well, but they provided special equipment so she could peek at the dolphins underwater.

Along the way, the captain personally grilled cheeseburgers on the boat, which helped soothe our tired bodies. They also showed consideration for my husband, who had lost his appetite due to seasickness, by preparing some food for him to take home as a souvenir.

After moving to a different location, we also had a lot of fun with sea kayaking and feeding tropical fish.

During the activities, a professional photographer accompanied us, and we were able to purchase beautiful family photos with the stunning Hawaiian nature as the backdrop, which became the best souvenir.

Experiencing nature is truly the best!!

I definitely want to participate again when I go to Hawaii.

Thank you, powerful Yuriko! Please send my regards to all the crew.

5歳の娘がいたので、不安でしたが、このサイトを見てもっと小さい子も参加していたので、思い切って参加してみました。

乗船してからハワイの歌を現地のクルーと歌ったり、もうすっかり楽しんでいました。
ダブルレインボーに迎えられ、海の中で沢山のイルカと会えました。私は気づかなかったけれど、息子と主人はイルカのチッチッチという声も聞こえたよ~と水族館とは一味違う野生のイルカに感動したようです。娘はシュノーケルはうまく出来なかったのですが、特別な道具を用意してくれて海の中のイルカを覗くことができました。

途中で船長自ら船上で焼いてくれたチーズバーガーで冷えて疲れた体を癒してくれました。船酔いで食欲のなかった主人にはお土産として持って帰れるように心遣いもして下さいました。

場所を移動してからの、シーカヤックや熱帯魚への餌付けもとても楽しかったようです。

活動中、ずっとプロのカメラマンが同行しており、ハワイの大自然をバックにとてもナチュラルな笑顔の家族の写真も購入することが出来て、最高のお土産になりました。

やはり自然体験が一番です~!!

またハワイに行った時には是非参加したいと思います。

パワフルなユリコさん!最高の夏休みをありがとうございます。クルー皆さんに宜しくお伝えください。

Discover Oahu’s North Shore from Waikiki with The Surf Bus - Snorkel, Kayak, SUP & Waimea Falls
Awesome time!!
Posted on: 2009/07/15

I highly recommend this tour to anyone who has never been to Hawaii!! Our tour guide was super nice and very knowledgeable. We rode the beach cruiser and it was really nice to just ride along the beach, but you have to be careful as you do share the road with cars. It was nice to get away from the hustle and bustle of Waikiki and spend the whole day at the North Shore. We had an awesome time and I cannot wait to do it again.

I graduated from the prestigious Dolphin University! ♪
名門イルカ大学卒業してきました♪
Posted on: 2009/07/02

This is my third time participating after three years. I strayed to other companies twice, but I realized this is the place for me and came back. This time, I was able to meet and swim with many dolphins up close. About three pods came by alternately, and they swam around the catamaran for quite a long time.

After that, I went snorkeling and kayaking, enjoyed delicious burgers and fruits made by the staff, and danced the hula on the way back. There really are no misses here! I’ve participated in various ways—group, family, and solo—but the staff always made it fun, and I never felt anxious at all.

The tea service after coming out of the water and the thoughtful gestures during the cruise... the staff's service is top-notch. The cost performance might be a little higher than others, but it’s definitely worth it. I’ll be participating again soon!

3年ぶり3度目の参加です。
他社で2回浮気をして、やっぱココだと思って帰ってきました。今回もたくさんのイルカ達と会えて至近距離で泳げました☆
3つくらいの群れが交互にやってきて、随分長い時間カタマランの周りを泳いでました。
それからシュノーケル、カヤックサーフィンをして、パパさんの美味しいバーガーとフルーツを食べてフラを踊りながら帰ってきました。
ほんと外れ無し!!
グループ・家族・一人参加と色々な形で参加しましたが、いつでもスタッフのみんなが楽しませてくれて、不安な思いは全く感じませんでした。
海から上がった時のお茶のサービスや、クルージング中の細やかな心使い・・・と、スタッフさん達のサービスはピカイチです。コストパフォーマンスだけは・・・他よりもちょっとだけ高いかもしれませんが、その価値は充分アリです♪
また近いうちに参加しに行きます☆

Doors-Off Paradise Helicopter Tour & Landing from Kapolei [Not Operating]
Helicopter tour
Posted on: 2009/06/10

The tour was amazing! Over Hawaii locations on a prefect Hawaii day... what more can you ask for!? The tour guide was entertaining and well knowledge. But the fact that we had to share the tour with 10-12 year old boys kind of killed the romantic part of the tour. It's a GREAT experience! Although staying in Waikiki and driving to the North Shore was kind of a hassel and took one hour... the helicopter tour made up for part of it. I would recommend to first timers to the island.
