There is only one water park on Oahu. I went with my elementary school daughter, and we had a lot of fun with the various water slides. We drove there with a rental car (with a navigation system), and thanks to the navigation, we were able to find it. However, the operating hours are short, so it's better to arrive early when they open. Our original planned date was March 24, but the weather was bad that day, a bit chilly with rain, so I called and changed it to the next day. They easily accepted the change, which was a relief. The next day was sunny. The water park does not allow outside food or drinks, including fans. There is a baggage check at the entrance, so be careful.
オアフ島でのウォーターパークはそこしかありません。小学生の娘と行きましたがウォータースライダーが色々あって楽しめました。レンタカーで(カーナビ付き)行きましたが、カーナビのおかげでたどり着くことが出来ました。ただ営業時間が短いのでオープンする時間に早めに行った方がいいです。本当の参加予定日は3/24だったのですがその日は天気が悪く、雨で少し肌寒かったので電話をお願いして翌日に変更してもらいました。あっさり変更オーケしてもらい、ホッとしました。翌日は晴天でした。ウォーターパークは飲食物の持ち込みは出来ません。うちわもです。入口に手荷物の検査があるので注意、です。

I was able to enter around 10:30 AM. The return bus departs at 3:15 PM, so I started changing around 2:30 PM, and I wished I had a bit more time to enjoy.
The thrill rides were more exciting than I expected. The changing room is combined with the restroom, so it lacks cleanliness.
In addition to fast food, there was a barbecue plate lunch that was very delicious and filling.
When purchasing alcohol like beer, you need to show something that verifies your age, and we were able to buy it by showing a color copy of our passports. Once you show it, they put a band on your wrist indicating that you are over 21.
All the staff were friendly and kind.
10時30分頃に入場出来ました。
3時15分に帰りのバスが出発なので、2時30分頃から着替えをしたので、
もう少し遊ぶ時間があればと思いました。
絶叫系のアトラクションは思った以上にスリルがありました。
更衣室はトイレと一緒なので、清潔感はありません。
食事はファストフードのほかに、バーベキューのプレートランチがありましたが
とても美味しかったし、ボリュームがありました。
ビール等のアルコール購入時には、年齢が確認できるものが必要で、私たちは
パスポートのカラーコピーを見せて買う事ができました。
一度見せると、腕に21歳以上であることのバンドをつけてくれます。
スタッフは皆さんフレンドリーで親切です。

First, please note that snacks will be confiscated, so avoid bringing them.
The pool is spacious enough to keep children entertained. However, on weekdays, there are fewer guests, so attractions operate on a one-open, one-close basis. For the boat slide that requires several people, you need to ensure the total weight is sufficient, so families must calculate accordingly.
I was really looking forward to the lazy river, but it was closed for the entire day...
The food is delicious.
Also, the changing area is located behind the restrooms, so initially, guests who are unaware may get confused and hurriedly change in front of the outdoor lockers. If you go further in, you'll find the changing area, so please look for it.
まず、お菓子は没収されますので持っていかないようにしましょう。
プールは子供連れには飽きさせない広さです。
ただし、平日ではお客さんが少ないのでアトラクションも
ひとつ開けたらひとつ閉める、といった形態です。
数名で乗るボートスライダーも重さが足りないといけないので、
家族連れでも計算して乗らないと大変です。
ゆったり流れるプールを一番楽しみにしていたのに、そこは一日空きませんでした、、、
ご飯は美味しいです。
あと、着替え場所はトイレの裏なので、初め分からないお客さんがみんな迷ったまま、
野外のロッカー前でそそくさと着替えてしまっていました。
ちゃんと奥にいくと着替え場所があるので、探してみてください。

I previously went to a place in Guam with a similar attraction and had a great time, so I found Wet 'n' Wild online and made a reservation. There were so many different attractions, and it was fun, but perhaps due to the lack of staff? It felt like after one attraction was operated, it would close and they would operate another, so not all attractions were running at the same time. However, it wasn't too bothersome, so that was good.
The attractions were all things that would definitely be considered too dangerous to create in Japan, but everyone was having fun without getting hurt. However, at the very end, I ended up hitting my back hard while going down a slide on a five-person inflatable raft. I was so breathless that I felt a moment of panic and fear from getting injured in a foreign country. A staff member came to help, but it didn't feel like they were going to take me to the hospital; after checking my condition, they just suggested icing it, and they didn't really explain what my injury was like.
After returning to Waikiki, I bought some pain relief patches at an ABC Store and applied them for a couple of days, which helped the pain go away, so that was good. However, since I got injured, I think someone else might get hurt as well. I believe it's important to consider this and ensure that small children are kept safe from injuries.
以前グアムのプールで同じようなアトラクションがある所に行き、とても楽しかったのでネットでウェット&ワイルドを見つけ予約しました。すごく色んなアトラクションがあって楽しかったのですが、従業員が少ないからか?笑 一つのアトラクションを運営した後それは休止して他のアトラクションを運営させるという感じで常に全部のアトラクションが動いてあるという感じではなかったです。でもそれはあまり気にならなかったので良かったですが。
アトラクションは日本では絶対危険すぎてありえない、作れないだろうというアトラクションばかりですが皆さん怪我することなく遊んでいて楽しかったです。しかし私は最後の最後で5人乗りで浮き輪のようなものに乗ってスライダーを降りるやつで背中を強打してしまいました。本当に息ができないくらいで異国で怪我したので一瞬頭が真っ白になるくらい不安で怖かったです。ドクターというか係員が来てくれたのですが、病院に連れて行くという感じではなく、状態を見た後は氷で冷やすという感じで終わってしまい、怪我がどんな感じなのかというのもあまり言ってくれませんでした。その後ワイキキに戻った後ABCストアで湿布を買って2、3日貼っていたら痛みはひいて治ったので良かったのですが、私が怪我をしたということは誰かしらまた怪我することがあると思います。そのことも検討して小さい子どもには怪我をさせないよう考えた方が良いと思います。

There are various water slides, and both adults and children can enjoy them. If the temperature were a bit higher, I think you could spend the whole day there without getting bored. However, it's unfortunate that, perhaps due to the low number of customers on weekdays, the attractions change every hour, so there were many times when I couldn't do what I wanted to do.

The tour went quite far south in search of dolphins, and both my parents and I were moved to see nearly 30 dolphins!! The wetsuits are available for rent, but they help prevent sunburn and provide buoyancy in the water, so whether you're confident in swimming or not, wearing one allows you to focus on the dolphins, which was thrilling and made for an amazing day~♪
I didn't have high expectations for anything other than the dolphins, but the cheeseburgers and the hospitality of the staff were excellent! The tour also includes water activities like snorkeling and kayaking after lunch, so you definitely should experience them!!
Thank you very much!!
ツアーはイルカを探してかなり南下したけれど、
イルカ30匹近くを見る事ができて両親も私も感動!!
ウエットスーツが有料だけど、日焼け防止や水中で浮力が出るので、泳ぎに自身があってもなくても着ているとイルカに集中できて感動するし、楽しかったし最高の1日でした~♪
イルカ以外は期待してなかったけれど、チーズバーガーやスタッフの方のホスピタリティ最高!
昼食後のシュノーケリング、カヤックなどの水のアクティビティもツアーに含まれているので、是非体験するべき!!
ありがとうございました!!

The attractions were fun and unique compared to those in Japan, and there were shallow pools for kids to play in and places to relax and sunbathe, which made for a very enjoyable experience. Our plan was the cheapest option, but we were able to play without worrying about time, so we didn't drink frequently or have meals that were particularly memorable, just typical American fare.
While popular attractions do have wait times, they move quickly, and waiting for about 20 minutes isn't too bothersome. However, like us, if the weather isn't great, it can feel a bit disappointing. When it's cloudy, it feels cold after getting out of the pool or while waiting for attractions, and it gets chilly when it rains. There are also few places to take shelter from the rain, which can dampen your spirits.
If the weather is nice, it can be an incredibly fun experience, and I would rate it five stars, but... discussing the weather, it's something that can be said about any tour. Even if the weather isn't perfect, you can still have a good time, so I recommend it!
アトラクションは日本にはないような楽しいものありましたし、子供が遊べる浅めのプールやのんびり日焼けできるところもあり、非常に楽しめました。
私たちのプランは一番安いプランだったのですが、時間を忘れて遊べるので飲み物も頻繁に飲まないですし、食事もアメリカらしい感じで可もなく不可もなくでした。
人気のアトラクションは待ち時間もありますが、回りが早いですし、待っても20分くらいなので気にはならないと思います。
ただ、私たちもそうでしたが、天気に恵まれないと少しもったいない気がします。
曇ったりするとプールから上がった後や、アトラクションの待ち時間は寒く感じますし、雨が降ると寒いですし。雨宿りする場所も少ないのでテンションが下がります。
天気に恵まれれば最高に楽しいですし、星5つの評価だったのですが・・・
ただ、天気の話をするとどこのツアーも同じことが言えますし、天気に恵まれなくても楽しむことはできるのでおすすめです!

Also, it was nice that it wasn't crowded, but on the downside, there were fewer staff members, and some attractions were closed, which was a bit disappointing. Nevertheless, I enjoyed each attraction, so it's a place I would like to visit again.

This time, we went to Hawaii for our university graduation trip with four girls. While planning our trip, we were considering which optional tours to take, and that's when we learned about Wet 'n' Wild from a magazine. Wet 'n' Wild is the only water theme park in Hawaii, and we found out it has over 25 thrilling attractions, covering an area equivalent to three Tokyo Domes. We thought, "This is something we absolutely can't experience in Japan!" and decided to include this in our travel plan.
On the day of the pool visit! When we woke up in the morning, it was cloudy. When we stepped outside, it was slightly chilly in short sleeves. Everyone was worried as we boarded the bus, heading to Wet 'n' Wild. It took about an hour by bus to reach Wet 'n' Wild on the west coast from Honolulu.
Even though Hawaii never drops below 20 degrees Celsius year-round, it was technically winter, so we heard it was much less crowded than usual. As we passed through the entrance gate, we were overwhelmed by the scale of the place. Looking up, we were in awe. It truly felt like America! Our energy, which had been low due to sleepiness and the cold, suddenly shot up. We quickly changed into our swimsuits, applied sunscreen, and set out! First, we headed to the wave pool to get used to the water. Japan also has wave pools, but the waves here were definitely different! Once we got into the pool, we forgot about the cold. The water was as beautiful as Waikiki Beach. We sat on inflatable rings, playing and getting swept away by the big waves alongside the kids. There was a break every 30 minutes, so during the wave breaks, we headed to the attractions.
The first ride we tried was "Shaka." My honest reaction when I first saw it was, "What is this?!" It was a simple yet thrilling ride where two people ride on an inflatable ring and slide down a U-shaped board. Excited screams echoed from those who were falling. As thrill-seekers, we quickly climbed the stairs to the ride. However, when we reached the top, our legs felt weak. The height and drop were more than we expected. But there was no time to be scared; before we knew it, we were falling. Since two people ride facing each other on the ring, one person falls backward while the other falls forward. I fell forward, and it felt just like a roller coaster.
今回私たちは大学の卒業旅行で女子4人でハワイに行きました。旅行プランを考えるにあたり、オプショナルツアーを何にしようか考えていたところ、雑誌であwet and wildの存在を知りました。wet and wildはハワイで唯一の水のテーマパークであり、東京ドーム3個分の広さに加え、スリル満点のアトラクションが25以上あると知り、これは日本では絶対に体験できない!!と思い、このプランを私たちの旅行プランに取り入れるとこに決定しました。
プール当日!朝起きると、なんと曇り。外に出ると半袖で若干肌寒いくらいでした。みんな心配しながらバスに乗り、いざwet and wildへ。ホノルルから西海岸にあるwet and wildに向かうまではバスで約1時間ほどかかりました。
1年中20度を下回ることが無いというハワイでも季節的には冬季ということもあり、シーズンよりもだいぶ空いているという話でした。いざ、入場ゲートをくぐり中へ入るとそのスケールの大きさに圧倒。上を見上げ驚愕といった様子でした。
さすが、アメリカ!と感じました。さっきまで寝むさと寒さで下がり気味だったテンションも一気にハイテンションへ。すぐに水着に着替え、日焼け止めをばっちり塗り出陣!まずは身体を水に慣らすために波のプールへ。日本にも波のプールは有りますが、やはりアメリカ。日本とは波の大きさが違う!一度プールの中に入ってしまえば寒さも忘れてしまいました。プールの水もワイキキビーチのように綺麗でした。浮き輪の上に座って大きな波に流されながら子どもたちに混ざって遊んでいました。波は30分おきに休憩タイムがあるので、波がお休みの間はアトラクションへ。
最初に乗ったのは「シャカ」です。初めて見たときは何これ!というのが素直な感想でした。U字の板の上を2人乗りの浮き輪に乗り滑り落ちるといったシンプルな絶叫マシーン。落ちて行く人たちからは楽しそうな悲鳴が響き渡っていました。絶叫好きな私たちはすぐに階段を上り、乗り場へ向かいました。しかし、いざ上に立つと足がすくみました。予想以上の高さと落差。しかし、怖がっている暇もなく気が付いたら落ちていました。2人が向かい合って浮き輪に乗って落ちるため、1人は後ろ向きに、もう1人は前向きに落下することになります。私は前向きに落下したのですが、まさにジェットコースターの様でした。こんな

I visited during my university graduation trip. I thought it would be a waste to go to a pool in Hawaii, but a friend recommended it, saying it was really fun, so I went. In conclusion, all six of us said it was the most enjoyable part of our Hawaii trip. Since it was late February, it was a bit cold to go into the ocean. The pool felt cold at times, but we were blessed with good weather, and it was bearable.
The most fun part was the slide that six of us could ride together. A friend jokingly said they felt a sense of danger, as it was full of thrills. Also, the wave pool had waves that were so powerful compared to those in Japan, and even while floating on a ring, if you accidentally caught a wave, you would be swept all the way to the shore, which was a lot of fun. The lazy river didn’t flow very fast, but it was nice to float slowly and relax. The slides operated in 30-minute intervals. I think it was because there were few people, but I had checked reviews beforehand, so it wasn't a problem.
We ate pizza, hamburgers, and hot dogs, and they weren't as bad as I had read in the reviews. I recommend bringing a wrap towel because the changing area has the same floor as the restrooms, and the curtain dividers aren't sufficient.
大学の卒業旅行で訪れました。
ハワイに来てプールに行くなんて勿体無いと思ったりしましたが
別の友人から、とても面白かったから是非!とオススメされていきました。
結論としては、六人全員がハワイ旅行の中で一番楽しかったと
言っていました。
時期が二月後半だったので、海に入るには少し寒かったからと
いうのもあります。
プールも寒く感じることもありましたが、お天気にも恵まれ、
寒さにも耐えられる程度でした。
一番楽しかったのは6人で乗れるスライダーでした。
友人は命の危険を感じた笑 と言っていたくらい、スリル満点でした。
また、波のプールは日本のものとは比べものにならないくらい、迫力ある波で、浮き輪でぷかぷか浮いていても、うっかり波に乗ってしまうと波打ち際まで流されてしまってとても楽しかったです。
流れるプールはなかなか流れませんでしたが、ゆっくり流れていてのんびりできて楽しかったです。
スライダーなどは30分交代で稼働していました。人が少ないからだと思いますが事前に口コミなど見ていたので問題ありませんでした。
ご飯はピザ、ハンバーガー、ホットドッグなどを食べましたが口コミで見ていたほど悪くはありませんでした。
着替えの場所がトイレと同じ床なこと、しきりのカーテンが十分ではないので、まきまきタオルを持ってくことをオススメします。

From the beginning of the bus ride out of Waikiki to the final drop off this was a treat. Everyone going to Hawaii should see this at least once.
Cousin Mo was so funny and informative on the bus that it really made it fun. There are great activities at the Luau and you really experience the hospitality and sprit of Aloha.
This was my second time to Paradise cove and it did not dissapoint. I took my brother and he loved it.
We bought the front row tickets and had great seats....just don't expect your ticket price to deliver a top notch dinner. The food is good and the pork exceptional but not what I would spend $120 on. All the other inculsions make it really worth it.
I would go back again and again

On the way to see the dolphins, we were lucky enough to spot a whale. It's not often you get to see one so close. After that, we jumped into the sea where the dolphins were. We were able to see dolphins swimming in a group, but unfortunately, they were too deep, so it didn't feel like we were swimming with them. At the snorkeling spot, we were able to see a turtle. It swam quickly and dove down, so only a few people near the cameraman got to see it. When we returned to the boat, they handed out hamburgers and drinks, but since I couldn't eat due to seasickness, they packed it up for me to take home. Although it was disappointing about the dolphins, it was great to see the whale and turtle up close.
イルカを見に行く途中クジラを見ることが出来ました。
こんなに近くで見れるのはあんまりないということでラッキーでした。
その後イルカのいる海に飛び込みました。
集団で泳いでいるイルカを見ることは出来ましたが、イルカが深すぎて、一緒に泳いでるという感じではなかったのが残念でした。
シュノーケルのスポットでは、カメを見ることができました。
泳ぐのが早くすぐ下に行ってしまったので、見れたのはカメラマンさんの近くにいた数名でした。

I absolutely wanted to swim with dolphins, so I signed up for a tour. The boat ride wasn't too difficult, and I enjoyed the crew's performance on board. However, due to the rain the day before, the water clarity was poor, and it wasn't the bright blue sea I had hoped for with the dolphins! While searching for dolphins, I repeatedly prepared to jump in, but I was only able to see dolphins twice and couldn't swim with them. Unfortunately, I didn't see many fish at the snorkeling spot either. However, the water was not cold, and I could float comfortably. The special double burger on the boat was a lucky find! The excitement of seeing the dolphins was definitely there. I hope to swim with them next time. The hula was okay and somewhat interesting.
P.S. The boat does sway with the waves, so don't underestimate seasickness. I was fine since I'm used to it, but several people did get seasick. If you're participating, make sure to take motion sickness medication before boarding (^^).
絶対にイルカと一緒に泳ぎたくて、ツアーに申し込みました。
船での移動はそれほど苦にはならず、船上でのクルーのパフォーマンスも楽しめました。
ただ、前日の雨の影響で海の透明度が悪く、青く輝く海でのイルカ!!とはいかなかったです。
イルカを探しながら、何回も準備して飛び込んでを繰り返しました。結果、2回イルカを見る事ができましたが、一緒に泳ぐ事はできませんでした。
シュノーケルのポイントもあまり魚を見る事ができず、残念でした。
でも、海の中は寒くなく、気持ちよくぷかぷかできました。
船上のハンバーガーは特製ダブルバーガーが当たり、ラッキーでした!
イルカを見れた感動は確かにありました。
次回は一緒に泳げればと思います。
フラはまあまあ、おもしろかったです。
P.S
船は波を受け揺れるものです。船酔いを甘く見ないほうがいいです。私はなれているので大丈夫でしたが、船酔いした方が何人もいらっしゃいました。参加する方は酔い止めを服用してから乗船しましょう(^^)

The waves are high in winter, and even with taking motion sickness medication, I got seasick. I ended up feeling unwell before I could meet the dolphins, and in the end, I couldn't do anything. It was also very cold on the boat. Since we were on the boat for about three hours, it might be tough for those who are prone to seasickness. I did see a few dolphins, but it seemed quite difficult to swim with them on the day I participated. The staff members were all very nice and seemed to be having fun. Summer is said to have relatively calm waves, so I recommend participating in the summer.
冬は波が高く、酔い止めを飲んでいても船酔いしました。
イルカに出会うまでにダウンしてしまい、結局何もできなかったです。そして船の上はとても寒かったです。
船には3時間ほど乗っていますので、船酔いしやすいかたは大変かもしれません。
イルカは少し見れましたが、私が参加した日は一緒に泳ぐのがなかなか難しかったようです。

We participated as a couple with our 5-year-old. Since we had a young child with us, when the staff instructed another staff member to swim with us, they clearly looked displeased. Seeing that made our spirits drop significantly, and our child became scared of the ocean, so we couldn't go in for a while.
At one point, when our child got tired and fell asleep, there was a photo session, and even though they said they would take pictures later, they completely forgot about it until the end. After the tour, while others were chatting about the photos they had taken and whether to buy them or not, we felt forgotten, which left us with a bad feeling.
That day wasn't particularly crowded, but we felt treated carelessly, which diminished our enjoyable memories of the day.
5歳と夫婦で参加しました。幼児連れなので、スタッフの方が泳ぐ際、私たちと泳ぐようにと別のスタッフの方に指示した時、明らかに嫌そうな顔をされました。それを見て、かなりテンションが下がってしまい、子供も海を怖がったので、しばらく入れませんでした。
途中、子供が疲れて寝てしまったときに、写真撮影があり、寝ているのを見て、後で撮ると言っていたのに、最後まで忘れていました。
ツアーが終わった後、他の方は撮った写真を見て買うか買わないか雑談していましたが、私たちは忘れられていたので、嫌な気分ばかり残りました。
その日は、そんなに混雑していたわけではなかったのですが、雑に扱われ、楽しい思い出が半減した一日でした。

We left the hotel while it was still dark, and the weather was uncertain, but it turned out sunny and we were able to see two rainbows, which was great. On that day, we were able to see several whales up close and encountered many dolphins, which was wonderful, but we ran out of time and missed out on marine sports. I was a bit disappointed about that since I chose to go to university instead of junior high for that reason.
まだ暗いうちにホテルを出発で天気も不安だったんですが、晴れて虹も2本かかっているのも見れて良かったです。この日は、くじらが何頭も近くで見えたりイルカにもたくさん会えてよかったんですが、その分時間が無くなって、マリンスポーツがなくなりました。それがあるから中学の方でなく大学を選んでただけに少し残念でした。

There were water slides that you can't find in Japan, and I had a lot of fun. However, it was disappointing that some water slides were not available at certain times.
日本にはないウォータースライダーがあり、とても楽しむことができました。
しかし、時間によって使用できないウォータースライダーがあったことが残念でした。
