All Reviews for Watersports & Ocean Adventures

Beautiful day with really lovely and funny hosts. Hosts were very awesome. Wish we could have done this activity for longer. Really fun day. No complaints from me. Would definitely recommend

My first surfing experience in life.

I was skeptical about whether I could actually stand on the board, but the tour introduction was not misleading at all.

My young son was also able to stand on the board, and we had a truly valuable experience.

As a man in my forties with only skateboarding experience from my elementary school days, I was able to ride the waves, and I feel like I'm finally getting hooked on surfing.

人生初のサーフィン体験。

ちゃんとボードに立てるのか？
半信半疑だったのですが、
ツアーの紹介に嘘偽りはありませんでした。

幼い息子もボードに立てており、
とても貴重な体験をさせて頂きました。

これまで小学生時分に
スケードボードの経験しかない
四十路のおっさんですが全然波に乗れ、
遅まきながらサーフィンに嵌りそうです。

This is a great, fun tour for groups and solo travelers alike. The staff is super friendly and helpful, going out of their way to make sure your experience is top notch. The diver propulsion vehicles are an extra bonus that no other tour operator offers that set apart Trident Adventures from others. Will definitely do again upon my next visit to Oahu.

I convinced my husband, who is not fond of heights, to join, and we both thoroughly enjoyed the 6-minute flight with great views and a pleasant breeze. Thank you very much.

高いところが苦手な夫を説得しての参加でしたが、6分間の空の旅は眺めもよく 風も心地よく大変2人とも満喫出来ました。
ありがとうございました。

I participated alone and even though my English is terrible, I had a great time! The staff were very kind and gave instructions using gestures and simple words, so it was no problem at all despite my lack of English. As a beginner, I was able to stand firmly on the board and it felt wonderful! I would love to participate again when I come back to Waikiki! Thank you very much!

一人で参加&英語は全くダメでも、楽しめました！！
スタッフの皆さんとても親切で、身振りと単語で指示をくれるので、英語がダメでも全く問題ありませんでした。
初心者でも、しっかりボードの上に立てて気持ちよかったです♬
またワイキキに来る際には参加したいと思います！！
ありがとうございました！！

Excursion was made online but had to be changed by email to the next day after the planned event. It all happened seamlessly! Thank you. We will use you again!

We made online reservations for the next day to Hanauma Bay snorkeling but had to change the reservation day and time and within a few short hours they change was made through email and the trip and driver were very nice!

I was able to see a lot of fish, and it became my favorite memory from my trip to Hawaii! I’m not good at swimming, and it was my husband’s first time snorkeling, but thanks to Chieko's careful support while I was swimming, I was able to swim with peace of mind. I didn’t have an underwater camera, but Dan took many photos and kindly provided them through Facebook, which was a great help. Chieko and Dan were very cheerful, and the atmosphere during the tour was always pleasant and fun. Thank you so much!

たくさんのお魚が見れて、ハワイ旅行で1番楽しい思い出になりました！
私は泳ぐのが苦手で、夫はシュノーケリング初めてだったのですが、ちえこさんが泳いでいる間もずっと丁寧にサポートしてくださったおかげで、安心して泳ぎ切ることができました。
水中カメラを持っていなかったのですが、代わりにダンさんがたくさんの写真を撮ってFacebook通じて提供してくださるので大変助かります。
ちえこさんとダンさんがとても明るく、ツアー中ずっと和やかな雰囲気で楽しかったです。本当にありがとうございました。　

I was able to stand on the board properly! I took a semi-private lesson, so I was really tired, but I had a great time!

ちゃんとボードに立てました(^^)
セミプライベートレッスンを受講したので、めちゃくちゃ疲れたけど(笑)、存分に楽しませてもらいました！

The weather was nice, and the waves were calm, making it the perfect day for parasailing. However, both the boat and the parasailing were rockier than expected, and there were a few people on the boat who got sick. I also felt a bit seasick, but I managed to hold on. The view from the sky was absolutely amazing.

天気も良く波も穏やかで最高のパラセーリング日和でした。
しかし、予想以上に船もそしてパラセーリングも揺れて、船上で吐く人がチラホラいました。
私も船酔いしたのですが、なんとか持ち堪えました。
空からの眺めは申し分なく最高でした。

That day was clear from the morning, perfect for parasailing, and I was itching to go as soon as I woke up.

On the boat that towed the parachute, there were 11 participants, including us, but for some reason, my husband and I were chosen first. Maybe our excitement was showing on our faces.

Once we boarded the parachute and it was released, we soared into the sky in an instant! The speed was incredible, and it took me by surprise for a moment, but I hardly felt scared.

As we reached a certain height, it became so stable that it felt like sitting in a chair, and from there, it was a graceful aerial stroll.

The panoramic view of Diamond Head and the hotels of Waikiki far below was truly breathtaking.

Although parasailing is considered a marine sport, in reality, you just sit there, so I think it can be enjoyed easily by children and the elderly alike. It's not as scary as you might think!

This is definitely an activity that I want many people to experience when they come to Hawaii!

その日は朝から快晴で絶好のパラセイリング日和で、起きたときから早くパラセイリングをしたくてウズウズしてました。

その日のパラシュートをけん引するボートには、私たちを含む11名の参加者がいたのですが、なぜか私たち夫婦が1番手に指名。
よほどウズウズが顔に出ていたのかもしれませんね。

さて私たちが乗り込んだパラシュートが解き放たれると、あっという間に大空に向けてブワーっと浮上！
ものすごい勢いなので一瞬ドキッとはしましたが、ほとんど怖さは感じませんでした。

そしてある程度の高さまで行くとまるでイスに座っているかのように安定するので、そこからはもう優雅な空中散歩です。

ダイヤモンドヘッドもワイキキのホテル群も遠く眼下に見える大パノラマは、もう圧巻の一言でした。

パラセイリングはマリンスポーツとは言っても、実際はただ座っているだけなので、お子さんでもご年配の方でも気軽に楽しめると思います。
思っているより怖くないです！

ハワイに来たら多くの方に絶対に体験してほしいアクティビティです！

It was truly a walk in the sky! Floating in the air while gazing at Waikiki Beach and Diamond Head was a calm and very elegant experience! Since I was with a group of foreigners, the driver and the boat instructor spoke only English, but they occasionally mixed in some Japanese, which made it very enjoyable. It's not an intense activity, so I think families with small children can enjoy it with peace of mind!

まさに空中散歩！
ワイキキビーチやダイアモンドヘッドを眺めながらの空中浮遊は穏やかで、とても優雅な時間を過ごすことが出来ました！外国人グループと一緒だったので、送迎のドライバーさんや、ボートのインストラクターなど、それぞれ英語だけでしたが、時おり日本語も交えて話してくださり、とても楽しかったです。
激しいアクティビティではないので、小さなお子さま連れでも安心して楽しめると思います！

The pickup was on time, and the staff's response was good. However, I couldn't enjoy parasailing. I had imagined that I would feel a sense of speed like riding a motorcycle at a high altitude, but it was more stable than I expected when I tried it. I was expecting something more like a thrill ride, so it felt a bit disappointing.

ピックアップも時間通りでスタッフの対応も良かった。
ただ自分がパラセイリングを楽しめなかった。
自分の勝手な想像だかバイクを乗っているような疾走感を高い場所で感じられるのかなと思っていたが、乗ってみると思った以上に安定していた。
絶叫マシン的なのを期待していたので肩透かしをくらったかんじです。

Since it was close to the hotel, I was able to enjoy my free time in the afternoon. Surprisingly, I managed to ride without flipping over! It felt great, and the instructor was kind too!

ホテルから近かったので午後からの空き時間に楽しむことができました。
意外にひっくり返ることなくなんとか乗れました！
気持ちよかったです、先生も優しかったです！

It’s only a 30 min jet ski ride. Not 1 hr. So was disappointed. It was over really fast and you are only allowed to go in a circle lol

I was nervous during my first parasailing experience, but the view was beautiful and it was amazing! Although the language is English, the staff could speak a little Japanese, so there were no issues!

初めてのパラセーリングで緊張しましたが、景色も綺麗で最高でした！
言語が英語とありますが、スタッフの方たちは少し日本語が話せるので問題ありませんでした！

Great experience but wish it was with better weather. High tide and very choppy waters made visibility difficult. Still a good opportunity!

My son saw it on TV and said he wanted to try parasailing! There are various operators in Hawaii, but we decided on one that had no unnecessary options, reasonable prices, and a short duration, which were appealing to us. We booked a 150m session starting at 9 AM. We had a simple breakfast in our hotel room (spam onigiri and drinks), used the restroom, and waited for the pickup in the hotel lobby. Based on reviews mentioning seasickness on the boat, both my son and I took motion sickness medication on the bus. My son has never experienced motion sickness, but just in case. After giving birth, I have become a bit prone to nausea on rides like roller coasters.

The boat departs from the marina near the Prince, past the Hilton. There were five groups together. Once the boat went offshore, the parasailing opened up with a whoosh! The rainbow-colored parachute stood out beautifully against the sky, and it was so cute. Our excitement skyrocketed. After putting on life jackets and equipment, we took off in order. We were the second group. We quickly ascended to 150m, and the view was unlike anything we had ever seen! We could see the mountains of Hawaii, the outline of the island, and our parachute's shadow on the ocean, which felt absolutely wonderful. Initially, I was worried about the fear of heights, but it was so high (laughs) that I wasn't scared at all. Up there, it was stable with no swaying or wind. Both my son and I kept exclaiming how great it felt! The scenery was amazing! After about 10 minutes, the descent began, but I wasn't scared at all during this time either. The moment we landed, my son kept saying he wanted to do it again! He was laughed at by the others who were with us. The total time, including the round trip, was about an hour and a half. It was on time as stated on the website, and we were able to use the rest of the morning meaningfully after returning to the hotel. The crew was attentive, making sure everyone didn’t get seasick with high-fives, encouragement, pranks, and jokes. My son and I thoroughly enjoyed it. We will definitely repeat this. For families with children, I recommend the early morning sessions when they aren't too tired.

Lastly, a realistic note. One person in our group was nervous from the start, worried about getting seasick, and actually ended up vomiting on the boat. They mentioned they had taken motion sickness medication as well. Since there are many other fun things to do in Hawaii, I don't think those who are prone to motion sickness in their daily lives should force themselves to do this. Since it's a trip, you don't have to be fixated on parasailing. However, if you have experience getting nauseous on extraordinary rides like roller coasters, you don't need to be too nervous. You get to see the best views, and it's a unique experience of traveling, so it's better to relax and just enjoy it!

　息子がテレビで見て、パラセーリングをやってみたい！と言い出しました。ハワイでは色々な業者さんがいますが、不要なオプションがなくて値段が手頃、所用時間が短い、この2点が私たちには魅力的だったので決定。9時から、150mを申し込みました。当日の朝食はホテルの部屋で簡単に済ませ(スパムおにぎりと飲み物)、トイレも済ませ、ホテルのロビーでピックアップを待ちました。口コミで、ボートで酔うと書いあったのを参考に、酔い止めはバスの中で、息子も私も飲みました。息子は乗り物で酔った経験なしですが、念のため。私は出産後、ジェットコースターなどでは少し酔うようになったので。
　ボートは、ヒルトンの先、プリンス近くのマリーナから出ます。5組が一緒。ボートが沖合に出ると、パラセーリングがバサっ！と、開かれます。レインボーカラーのパラシュートが空に映え、すごく可愛い。テンションがいっきに上がります。ライフジャケットと器具をつけたら、順に、すぐに飛びます。私たちは2組目。150m まであっという間に上がり、見たことのない景色が！　ハワイの山々が見えて、島のラインが分かり、海に私たちのパラシュートの影がうつり、とてもとても気持ちがいいです。当初、高さへの恐怖を心配しましたが、高すぎて（笑）、まったく怖くなかったです。上空はゆれもなく、風もなく、安定してました。私も息子も、気持ちいいー！を連発。景色が最高でした！　10分ぐらい経つと下降が始まりますが、この間もまったく怖くなかったです。降りた瞬間、息子は、またやりたい！すぐやりたい！と言いまくり。一緒に乗っていた方に爆笑されてました。所用時間、往復もふくめ、総所要時間は1時間半程度。HPに書いてあったとおりのオンタイムで、ホテルに戻ってからも午前中の残りを有意義に使えました。乗組員のスタッフの方も、みんなが酔わないように、ハイタッチや声がけ、いたずらやジョークなど、ずっと、気にして声をかけてくださいます。息子も私も大満喫。私たちは必ずまたリピートします。お子さん連れは、疲れが溜まってない、朝早い回をオススメします。
　最後に現実的な話。一緒のグループにいらした方は、最初から、酔いやすいから心配……とナーバスで、実際にボートで酔って吐いていました。酔い止めも飲んでいたとのこと。他に楽しいことが沢山あるハワイなので、バスや電車など、日頃の生活でも酔いやすい方は無理してやることはないと思います。せっかの旅行なのでパラセーリングにこだわらなくてもです。ただ、私みたいにジェットコースターとか、非日常的な乗り物で酔った経験のある方ならば、そこまでナーバスにならなくても。最高の景色が見れて、旅行ならではの経験だから、あまり構えず、とにかく楽しんだ方がいいです。

If I go to Hawaii, I will definitely ride it! You can see it from offshore at Waikiki Beach, and I enjoy riding the waves. Please take care of me next time I go to Hawaii.

ハワイに行ったら、必ず乗ります！
ワイキキビーチの沖から見れるし、波に乗って楽しみます。次回ハワイに行った時も、宜しくお願いします。

From the pick-up to the parasailing, everything was enjoyable without any issues! I felt reassured when they spoke a little Japanese. I chose the 150m parasailing, and it went really high, offering a fantastic view. We went in the morning and finished by noon, so I think we made good use of our day.

送迎からパラセイリングまで、問題なく楽しめました！
日本語も少し話してもらって安心できました。
パラセイリングは150mにしましたが、すごく高くまで上がり、景色が一望できました。
朝から行って午前中には終わったので、1日の時間が有効活用できると思います。

We had a great experience with the shuttle to Hanauma Bay. The driver was very polite and helpful. The van was comfortable and the timing was perfect. The company representative I talked to on the phone was very helpful and gave me excellent advice on where to park our car while we were on the excursion. I would highly recommend this experience. Well worth the price!

This was the activity I was looking forward to the most before my trip, and it turned out to be the most fun! I really recommend it!

On the day of the activity, my morning schedule ran late, and I nervously called to see if I could change the time. They kindly responded in Japanese to accommodate my limited English, and my time was successfully changed. The gentleman who came to pick us up was very cheerful! Since there were only two groups, including us, I think the waiting time on the boat was short!

Then it was our turn to go up into the air! We chose 150 meters, and I'm glad we did! Looking down was scary, but when I looked up, a wonderful view spread out before me, and it really boosted my spirits! It lasted about five minutes, but I wanted to do it more!

This is definitely an activity I want to do again when I go back to Hawaii!

旅行前から１番楽しみにしていたアクティビティで、結果１番楽しかったです(^^)！！本当におススメです☆
当日午前の予定が押してしまい、時間変更の希望が出来るか恐る恐る電話をかけると、英語が不慣れなこちらに合わせて日本語で対応してくださり、時間もちゃんと変更されていました。お迎えに来てくれるおじさんはとても愉快な方です♪今回行った時間では、私達を含め2組だけでしたので、船上での待機時間は短かったと思います！
そして私達の順番がきていざ空中へ！１５０mにしましたが、これにしてよかった！下を見ると怖いですが、顔を上げると素晴らしい景色が広がっていて、本当にテンションがあがります！！！５分程でしたがもっとやりたかったー(>_<)
またハワイに行ったら絶対やりたいアクティビティです！

I’m really glad I did it! I went for 120m, but I slightly regret not going for 150m. The driver, Yano, was very friendly and funny, and he wrote down some great restaurant recommendations and took me back to the hotel multiple times. I can’t thank him enough for everything he did. It turned out to be a fun honeymoon!

とっても気持ちよくやってよかったです！120mにしたのですが、150mにしたらよかったなと少し後悔です。ドライバーのヤノさん？とても気さくで面白くて、美味しいお店を書き出してくれたり何度もホテルまで送っていただいたり、終始よくしていただき感謝しかないです。楽しい新婚旅行になりました！

We had the time of our life. The crew were hilarious and made us laughed so hard. I would do it again 100 times! It was a huge adrenaline rush up at 1000 feet!

Dan arrived early for pick up at our hotel entrance. =) My wife and I have very little to no snorkeling experience, and our swimming experience is very limited. However, Dan and Cheiko made our adventure possible, great for beginners. Dan simplified the instructions to make it easy, fun, and safe for all. Cheiko was excellent in ensuring safety for me as I needed a bit more help/guidance. Saw lots of fishes and would do this all over again.

I didn't catch anything at all, and the equipment and tackle were at a toy level. The location was also close to the port, so it didn't require much effort.

With just a quick money-making scheme, there's no way repeat customers will come back.

全く釣れず、道具も仕掛けもおもちゃレベルで場所も港から近くてエネルギー使ってない。

その場しのぎの金儲けだけで、リピーターが来るわけない

We had the most wonderful morning! The boat was clean and the staff was excellent. We even saw dolphins! We will definitely be taking this tour again!

I had a great experience with SUP. The trainers and staff were all very nice, and I had a lot of fun. When we arrived, we had some free time first, and we went cycling for about 20 minutes to nearby Lanikai Beach. The turquoise blue beach was beautiful, and we even saw sea turtles! I was able to borrow snorkeling gear from the office beforehand, so I brought it along. After returning from the beach, we had pizza for lunch (you get a voucher), and it was very delicious! In the afternoon, we did SUP, but the wind was strong and the waves were big, so we practiced in the river first before heading out to the ocean. We aimed for a nearby island, but because the waves were high, we had to turn back without landing on the island. It was a shame we couldn't go to the island, but it was still a very enjoyable experience.

SUPの体験をしました。トレーナーの方もスタッフの方もみなさんとても良い人で楽しかったです。到着したら、最初に自由時間があり、20分位のサイクリングで近くのラニカイビーチへ行きました。ターコイズブルーのビーチでとても綺麗でウミガメも見れました！シュノーケリンググッズを事前に事務所で借りられたので持っていきました。ビーチから帰ってきてからランチはピザを食べて、（ただ券を貰えます）とても美味しかったです！午後からSUPでしたが、風が強くて波が大きかったので、最初は川で練習をして、その後海へ出ました。近くにある島を目指して漕ぐのですが、波が高かったので、島へは上陸せずに途中で引き返す形になりました。島へ行けなかったのは残念ですが、とても楽しい体験になりました。

I’m not good with heights, so parasailing was my first experience, but I really enjoyed it. Since we shared the boat with others doing different activities, we had about 30 minutes on the boat. If you are prone to seasickness, I recommend taking some motion sickness medication. The actual time spent parasailing felt like it was less than 10 minutes. During the parasailing, the staff took photos from the boat, and there was a GoPro recording video while I was secured for the parasailing. If you want the data, you need to purchase it, and you can do so after returning to the office once the parasailing is finished. It was a very satisfying activity!

高いところは苦手なので、パラセーリングは初体験でしたが、とても楽しめました。パラセーリング以外のアクティビティの方達とひとつの船に乗って海へ出るので、船の上で30分位？の時間がありました。船酔いする方は酔いどめを飲まれたほうが良いと思います。体感時間は10分もないくらいでした。パラセーリング中は、船の上からスタッフが写真を撮ってくれて、パラセーリングに固定されているゴープロで動画もずっと回されていました。データがほしい人は購入が必要で、パラセーリングが終わったあと、事務所に戻ってから購入します。大変満足なアクティビティでした！

I wanted to play in the ocean in Hawaii, but since I was traveling alone, it seemed lonely, so I signed up for a SUP shuttle, lunch, and guided tour.
Our guide, Mieko, was bright and supportive, and we somehow made it to the island. It was a challenge for me, but thanks to her, I was able to achieve it.
The photos taken on the island show the beautiful blue of the sky and sea! I was also happy to see myself paddling with a bit of a wobbly stance in the pictures. The young couple I was with were also very nice.
It was so much fun!! Next time, I'll go with my husband. Thank you!!

ハワイの海で遊びたかったけど、なんせ1人旅。寂しそうなのでSUPの送迎、ランチ、ガイド付きツアーに申し込みました。
ガイドのミエコさんが明るく、力強くサポートしてくれて、なんとか島まで到達。私にとってはチャレンジでしたが、お陰で達成できました。
島で撮って貰った写真も空と海の青がとっても綺麗！へっぴり腰でパドルを漕いでる自分も写真で見れて、嬉しかったです。ご一緒した若いご夫婦もとても感じの良いお2人でした。
とても楽しかった！！次回は主人と行きますね。ありがとう！！
