I arrived at the reception 10 minutes before the scheduled time according to the voucher. There were white wooden chairs at the reception, but it didn't start until 20 minutes past the scheduled time.
There were about 20 people in total, and we were the only Japanese group. I was told there would be staff who spoke Japanese, but the explanations were only in English. Everyone was laughing, but I couldn't understand anything.
Perhaps because I'm always in a hurry, I'm not used to relaxing, and just sitting in the chair made me feel bored.
バウチャーとおり10分前に受付を探して行きました。
白い木製の椅子が受付、しかし受付時刻20分過ぎてやっとはじまりました。
総勢20名ぐらい、日本人は私たちの組のみ、日本語を話すスタッフがいるとのことでしたが、説明は英語のみ、みなさん笑っていましたがさっぱりわからなかった。
いつもせかせかしているせいか、のんびりすることに不慣れで椅子にすわっているだけで、退屈してしまいました。

It was mine and my parents' first time sailing and it was amazing and so fun. We got to see the beautiful blue ocean water and the sun was shining, and I would reccomend it! Worth the price.

I participated in the afternoon on the day of arrival on a JAL flight that landed in the morning. We went from in front of the Hilton Hotel to near Diamond Head and came back, enjoying the view of the ocean and the pleasant sea breeze, which made me really feel like I was in Hawaii. My excitement was high from the very first day.
I've heard that surprisingly many people come to Hawaii and don't even touch the ocean because they're busy shopping. That's why I recommend experiencing it during your free time on the first day.
JAL便 午前着便で到着日の 午後に参加しました
ヒルトンホテル前から ダイヤモンドヘッド近くまで行き
戻ってきましたが 海からの眺めと 気持ち良い
海風で ハワイに来た実感が 湧き出てきて
初日から テンション高くなります
案外 ハワイに来ても 海に触れない人は 多いと聞きますショッピングに 忙しいのだそうです
だから 初日の 空いた時間に 体験するのがおすすめです

When I came to Hawaii, I thought of the ocean, so I decided to sign up for a tour (even though it was my first time). As we set sail and headed out to sea, the color of the water changed from emerald green to blue. I was so amazed to think that this incredible color was the true color of the ocean. I got quite wet from the waves, but it was a wonderful experience.
ハワイに来たら海ということで(初めてだが)申し込んでみました。出船し沖に出ると、海の色がエメラルドグリーンからブルーに変わり、とても信じられないこの色が、本当の海の色なんだと思うと大感激でした。波で大分濡れましたがすばらしい体験でした。

When the catamaran first set sail, I relaxed while slowly enjoying the view of Waikiki Beach with a Mai Tai in hand! However, once we got out to sea, the waves were high, and the boat swayed significantly back and forth, making it very difficult to stand. Many people got splashed and soaked... it was full of thrills. (I'm not sure if this is always the case...)
カタマランが出帆した当初はワイキキビーチの景色をゆっくり見ながらマイタイを口に含み十分リラックス!ところが沖に出ると波が高く前後左右に大きく揺れ、とても立って居られません。波しぶきを浴び、びしょ濡れになった人も多く・・・スリル満点でした。(いつもなのかどうかは分かりませんが・・)

It was windy, but I brought a windbreaker, so I was able to enjoy sailing without feeling cold.
The staff inside were very pleasant, bringing drinks and checking in on us, which made for a great experience.
Along the way, we were able to see dolphins and sea turtles up close, and the hour went by in no time.

Although we lived in Hawaii for many years, we didn't decide to really enjoy ourselves until we came back for a visit this year. THis adventure on the Makani was the absolute highlight of this trip. It was fun, and most of all inexpensive. The crew was fun and very people friendly. The entire activity was just a complete joy.

We thoroughly enjoyed our trip with Capt. Jon and crew. As a sailor, my enjoyment was enhanced by Capt. Jon's tales of building the vessel and sailing itr from the Caribbean to Hawaii. He is justly proud having built a beautiful and very comfortable boat. As hoped, we were able to watch whales within sight of the beautiful Hawaiian coast and also enjoyed some great sailing. Great trip, great boat and great crew and great value!

I went sightseeing in the morning, and after shopping in the afternoon, I joined this cruise. It was interesting to experience a catamaran rather than a regular yacht, so I'm glad I did. One hour felt just right for a cruise—not too long. The boat was quite luxurious. The view of the land from the sea was great, and the ocean was beautiful and refreshing. I really enjoyed it.
午前中に観光して、午後は買い物をした後、このクルーズに参加。普通のヨットでなく、カタマラン船というのも興味深かったので、体験できてよかったです。1時間というのもちょっとクルーズ、という感じで長すぎずよかったですね。なかなか豪華な船でした。沖から眺める陸の眺めもよかったし、海がきれいで気持ちよかった。なかなか楽しめました。

It was my first experience on a catamaran, and it was very comfortable. The view of Diamond Head and Waikiki from the boat was amazing, and I was able to take postcard-like photos. The ocean was also very beautiful.
After finishing the morning sightseeing and taking a leisurely walk along the beach, I joined this cruise and then enjoyed some shopping. I feel that just adding this one-hour cruise made a huge difference in my satisfaction for the day. I'm glad I participated.
初めてのカタマラン船体験でしたが、とても乗り心地がよかったですね。船から見るダイアモンドヘッドとワイキキの景色が最高で、ポストカードのような写真が撮れましたし。海もとてもきれいでした。

Actually, I had never been on a cruise before, and my first cruise turned out to be in Hawaii. I thought a smaller boat would be better than a big ship, so we discussed it and chose this cruise from the website. The catamaran also felt very Hawaiian.
It was my first experience feeling how nice it is to sail through the sea with the sea breeze. Looking at the land from the sea gave me a strange feeling, like, "Oh, I was just over there, and now I'm looking at it from the water." The crew members were very kind and made it enjoyable for us.
Before I knew it, an hour had passed. Next time, I definitely want to join a sunset cruise plan.
実は今までクルーズってしたことがなく、初めてのクルーズがハワイになってしまったんです。大きな船よりも小さいボートっぽいのがいいな、と思ってみんなで相談してホームページからこのクルーズを選びました。カタマラン船っていうのもハワイっぽかったし。
潮風を受けて海を進むのがこんなに気持ちいいなんて初めての体験でした。海から陸を眺めるのも、「ああ、さっきまであそこにいたのに、今は海から眺めているんだな」って不思議な感覚でした。船員のスタッフの方々がとても親切で楽しませてくれました。
あっという間に1時間が経ってしまいました。
今度は是非夕日を眺めるクルーズプランに参加したいです。

I participated on the same day I arrived in Hawaii. The flight was long, so I was a bit tired, but the refreshing sea breeze and the beautiful ocean completely blew away my fatigue.
I was glad to enjoy the Hawaiian sea on the cruise right after arriving in Hawaii. The staff were cheerful and really helped to create a fun atmosphere.
The cleanliness and beauty of the ship (maybe it was new?) also left a good impression.
Overall, everything was great.

The blue sea and the blue sky! It was the best day. I actually thought a sunset cruise would be nice, but due to scheduling, I ended up going with this one. But it was great!
Believe it or not, I saw dolphins! While I was gazing at the sea, I spotted them below... I was so excited! A sea with wild dolphins swimming is truly wonderful! I'm really glad I signed up. The view of Hawaii from the sea was also very beautiful, and even though it was just a one-hour cruise, I felt very fulfilled.
Next time, I want to sign up for a sunset cruise as well. I hope the captain is the same as this time...
青い海に青い空!最高の日でした。本当はサンセットクルーズもいいな、と思ったのですが、予定の関係で、こちらになりました。でも、よかったんです!

I had so much fun that it didn't feel like just an hour. The Hawaiian sea, with its waves felt so close, was incredibly beautiful, and looking at Waikiki Beach from the water felt strangely wonderful. It was my first time on a catamaran, and it felt like a very stable boat, making for a comfortable ride. Honestly, I wished I could have stayed out on the water forever.

Our group went on the morning sailing excursion. What a beautiful day it turned out to be. We had picture perfect weather. Breathtaking doesn't even begin to describe the immense beauty you will witness on this tour. We have such wonderful pictures from this tour, that we could probably turn them into post cards. This was a perfect way to spend a relaxing day in Hawaii.

We took myself and three visitors from Japan. Yesterday PM trip. The ride on the catamaran was so smooth both coming and going. The capt did a great job! and the two mancrew.
He had so much patients steering the cat looking for whales. I tho't we would be disappointed, but he did not disappoint us. He finnaly found a mother and her pup. This was about an hour and half into our trip.
My cousin who asked for the trip was very happy. I don't know what she expected to see, but the whale did come up. she was satisfied. She may come back again next year. I know the whales don't leave until April. How will it be about this time next year? Would it have been if the trip were a little later?
By the way I have friends coming next week from Japan. How are the prospects. I can suggest your whale charter.
the capt. brought us back to Kewalo right on schedule.

We did the Makani Catamaran breakfast day cruise as a family and it was one of the most relaxing activities we did in Hawaii. The views were beautiful and the crew was extremely accommodating and informative when we had questions. We were there in late December so we were hoping to see whales & turtles but only saw dolphins, but the dolphins were delightful, they were spinner dolphins and they gave us a show and also swam right alongside the catamaran so we were able to see them very close up and get pictures. My kids are 15 & 20 so they also enjoyed it. There was a family with a young child and he seemed to do well, but if you have children that do not like to be somewhat contained for 2 hrs or are prone to getting out of control I would not recommend it for them. This is not a place for toddlers and small children to be running around. I would do this cruise again if we went back and I highly recommend it to others.

We thoroughly enjoyed our trips aboard the Makani (so good we did it twice)!!
The boat is modern and very roomy. The crew without equal (especially canine "Captain" Pal)! On our first sail, we were treated to a fantastic show by a large school of dolphins. Pal (all 9 pounds of him) dove off the stern to swim with his "buddies". Not expected, but nonetheless unforgetable.
The scenery, crew, and value of this adventure are unmatched anywhere on the island in our opinion. Thanks, John, for the great times. We'll be back soon!
