Oahu
Since we switched places with the previous group at the water's edge, there was no guidance before boarding, but they provided instructions in Japanese, so I was able to enjoy it without any issues.
前の人達と水際で交代して乗ったので、乗る前の指導が何もなかったですが、日本語も言ってくれるので 困ることなく楽しめました。
Thank you we had a great time. We appreciated the discount, and everyone was very professional and courteous. The crew was Very friendly and gave us a great time. Thanks for the memory !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I
I participated in the 150-meter event, and my 6-year-old daughter also enjoyed it. It seems she wasn't scared at all. I'm very happy to have received the photos in digital format. I definitely recommend this tour!
150メートルに参加しましたが6歳娘も楽しめました。怖くなかったようです。写真もデータで頂け嬉しい限りです。是非参加オススメツアーです。
On the way to Kailua, I felt lucky to see many rainbows. The bus was cold, so I think it's better to have a jacket.
In Kailua, I rented a bicycle and went to the beach. The water was cold and a bit chilly for this season, but many people were swimming. The snorkeling wasn't great, possibly because the spot wasn't good and the waves were big, so I couldn't see much.
After enjoying the ocean, I ran out of time to head towards Kailua Town, but there seemed to be buildings in the middle of both the town and the beach, making it easy to access either. There aren't many helmets available, so if you really want to wear one, I recommend securing it early.
The food was delicious too. It was a large pizza, so we shared it between two people. There were many Japanese staff members who were friendly and easy to talk to. Next time, I want to try kayaking as well.
カイルアへの移動中に虹がたくさん見られて得をした気分になりました。バスの中は寒いので、上着があったほうがいいと思います。
カイルアでは、自転車を借りて海まで行きました。
この季節は水が冷たく少し寒いくらいでしたが、たくさんの人が泳いでいました。シュノーケリングは場所がよくなかったのか、波も大きくあまりよく見えなかったです。
海を満喫したらカイルアタウンのほうまで行く時間が無くなってしまいましたが、町と海の真ん中くらいに建物があるのでどちらも行きやすそうでした。
ヘルメットはあまり数がないので、どうしても被りたい場合は早めに確保するのをおススメします。
食事もおいしかったです。大きいピザだったので、2人で分けて食べました。
日本人スタッフの方も多く、気さくで話しやすかったです。今度はカヤックなどもしてみたいです。
Dear Icchi,
Thank you for participating in the tour and for your comments. We appreciate your feedback regarding the cold bus. I will relay this to the driver. We are also very pleased to hear that you enjoyed the ocean in Kailua. We look forward to your participation in activities such as kayaking and stand-up paddleboarding next time.
Thank you very much.

The instructors communicated in various ways, which allowed us to relax and enjoy the experience. They provided solid guidance, so everyone who participated felt supported. They took a lot of photos, and afterward, we reflected on the experience while laughing together at the shop. The photos could be purchased as digital files. The pineapple ice cream we tasted was delicious. Since it was shallow, it might be a bit lacking for experienced participants. In such cases, it might be better to opt for a semi-private or private session. Also, the coral can surprisingly cause cuts, so it's a good idea to have some band-aids on hand.
イントラの方は様々な方法でコミュニケーションを取ってくれるので、リラックスして臨めました。
しっかりガイドしてくれるので、参加した人みんな立てていましたよ。写真をいろいろ撮ってくれて、終わった後もショップで互いに笑いながら振り返っていました。写真はデータで買うことができました。
試食のパイナップルアイス美味しかったです。
浅瀬だったので経験者にとっては物足りないかもしれません。そういう場合はセミプライベートやプライベートで受けるといいかも。あと、サンゴが意外と傷を作るので絆創膏あった方がいいです。
I booked parasailing on New Year's Day in 2019.
My wife and I challenged ourselves to the highest height of 150 meters.
The view from above was breathtaking, with Ala Moana Beach, Waikiki Beach, the cityscape of Waikiki, and unobstructed Diamond Head.
It was a spectacular sight.
It was the best feeling to start the new year.
I highly recommend it.
2019年の元旦にパラセーリングを予約しました。
妻と2人で、一番高い高さ150mに挑戦しました。
上空からのアラモアナビーチからワイキキビーチ、ワイキキの街並み、障害物なしのダイヤモンドヘッド。
絶景です。
新年早々最高の気分でした。
絶対おすすめです。
This time, at 48 years old, I tried surfing for the first time in my life. At first, I was only worried about whether I could do it, but once I tried, it was super fun. I think I'm going to get hooked! I made my debut as a dad surfer.
今回48歳にして人生初めてサーフィンしました。
初めは出来るかな?っていう不安しかありませんでしたが、やってみたらチョー楽しかったです。
はまりそうです!親父サーファーデビューとなりました。
We were very disappointed with this tour as it's nothing like the video on their ad. First of all the vessels are mechanically disabled so you don't get to operate them; instead you get pushed around by divers. Also the video shows several people in the water at the same time which is also not true. They only had 3 bubbles taking groups of 3 down at a time and when you have 25 people on the tour, you end up spending most of the day waiting around for them to finish. They did offer some fins and snorkels but there weren't nearly enough of them to accomodate everyone that were waiting. I wouldn't recommend this tour, you can find cheaper boat or snorkeling tours for a fraction of the coast. It was kind of like renting a bike where you're not allowed to use the pedals or the handles and someone just pushes you around instead.
I was very relieved to be picked up at the hotel on time, and it became a wonderful memory as we exchanged cameras with the other members of our group and took pictures of each other. The staff were also very enthusiastic! We did the 90m and were completely satisfied! When we arrived at the hotel with the families in our group, everyone smiled and said, "Thank you for your hard work!" as we parted ways, and I felt fortunate to have such a great group. I also think I want to challenge myself to the 150m next time!
時間通りにホテルに迎えに来てもらえとても安心し、同じグループになった方々とカメラを交換しお互い取り合ったり係の方々もとてもテンションが高く最高の思い出になりました!私達は90mでしたが十分満足でした!同じグループになった家族の方々とホテルに着いた時には、お疲れ様でした〜とみんな笑顔で解散してグループにもめぐまれたなと思います!次は150mにも挑戦したいな!とも思います♪
It was my first experience, and it felt absolutely amazing. I highly recommend it to those who are not sick. The view of Waikiki Beach from the ocean made me feel like a bird—it's an exaggeration, but it felt like flying in the sky.
初めての試みでしたが、最高に気持ちよかったです。病気がない方には是非オススメです。ワイキキビーチが海から眺められて鳥になった気分とは大げさですが空を飛ぶ感じです。
I participated with a friend. We were picked up by car from the hotel and gathered at the office near the beach for a short lecture while watching a video, then headed to the beach for a surfing experience. There are lockers available for personal belongings. When I asked the staff if there was a security box, they lent me a key that could be attached to the locker. I put my passport and wallet there without any issues.
I brought a rash guard just in case, but there were plenty available for rent, and my friend borrowed one without any problems. I was worried about not understanding English, but they provided an instructor who spoke Japanese, so there were no language issues.
There were five people in the group, and some participants were there alone. Once we got into the water to start surfing, it was a cycle of getting on the surfboard, being swept close to the shore, paddling out, and getting back on the board, so I think being alone wouldn’t be a problem.
As others have mentioned, you can generally ride the waves. Let's try to enjoy as much as we can within the time! One thing to be cautious about is the rocks and coral under the water. I injured my foot relatively early on, but I continued without worrying too much.
Even if you get hurt, there are first aid supplies at the office, and I used them as well. This became my best memory of my stay in Hawaii. Thank you very much!
友達と2人で参加しました。
ホテルに車で迎えに来てもらい、ビーチ近くの事務所に集まり、動画を見ながら短時間の講習、ビーチに行ってサーフィン体験という流れです。
私物はロッカーがあり、入れられます。
事務所の方に、セキュリティボックスはあるか聞くと、鍵を貸してもらえ、ロッカーに取り付けられます。パスポートや財布はそこに入れ、問題ありませんでした。
ラッシュガードは念のため買って行きましたが、貸し出し用のものがたくさんあり、友達はふつうに借りていました。
英語がわからず不安でしたが、日本語が話せるインストラクターの方をわざわざつけていただき、言葉の問題はありませんでした。
グループは5人で、1人で参加している方もいました。実際、海に出てサーフィンに乗り出すと、サーフィン乗る→岸付近に流される→沖までパドリング→サーフィン乗るの繰り返しなので、1人でも気にならないと思います。
あとは他の方の体験にあるように、基本的に乗れます。時間内で出来るだけトライして楽しみましょう^_^
一点だけ、海面下にある、岩やサンゴには気をつけましょう。私も足を割と序盤に怪我しました。気にせず続けましたが。
怪我しても応急処置用品は事務所にあり、私も使わせてもらいました。
ハワイ滞在で一番の思い出になりました^_^
ありがとうございました!
The day before, it was pouring rain, so I was worried about the weather, but it cleared up completely, which was great.
The boat was quite rocky, and I felt a bit nauseous, but I recovered by looking at the scenery and the ocean.
I got to see Diamond Head in all its glory.
From the sea, there were no obstacles, so it was really impressive.
I was able to see some dolphins swimming.
I didn't see any turtles, though.
But it was a valuable experience.
If you get seasick, be careful.
前の日が本気の雨だったんで、天気心配してたんですけど、すっかり晴れて良かったです。
かなり揺れて若干気分が悪くなりましたけど、景色や海を見て治しました。
ダイヤモンドヘッドがどーんと観れました。
海からだと障害物がないから迫力ありました。
イルカ達が泳いでるのを少し観れました。
カメさん達は観れなかった。
でも貴重な経験出来ました。
船酔いする人は気を付けてください。
The kids are experiencing Hawaii for the first time! They were really excited about the first attraction. It was just cold! I think it would be better if there were more freedom with taking photos. I wasn't sure if we could take our own or if it was part of the local service. Well, at least the kids had a great time, so that's good!
子供たちは始めてのハワイ❗️一発目のアトラクションでして、とても興奮していました。ただ寒かった‼️
写真なんかはもっと自由度があるといいと思いました。自分達で、撮っていいものか現地のサービスなのか。
まぁでも子供たちはめっちゃ楽しかったということで良かったです。
Dan's an experienced guide for us first timers. They provide rx lenses for masks. The weather was just perfect. But I was just too seasick to swim further to see more fish :(
Hi guys, sorry about the seasick, I would recommend taking motion sickness medicine first next time. You did great.
Dan.
We did parasailing in pairs, and while others were up in the air, the crew made jokes and kept the atmosphere lively, which was a lot of fun! The view of Honolulu from above was beautiful and amazing! It sways a bit, so if you're prone to motion sickness, it might be a good idea to take some medication.
順番に二人ずつパラセイリングをしたのですが、他の人が上に上がっている間、クルーの方がジョークを言うなど盛り上げてくれてとても楽しかったです!上からホノルル一望を眺め、とてもきれいで最高でした!少し揺れるので、酔いやすい人は、薬を飲んだ方が良さそうです
I tried it for the first time.
I received a brief lecture at the beginning, and then it was all about the experience.
I learned in Japanese from a local person.
It was fun.
初めてチャレンジしました。
初めに少しレクチャーを受けて、あとは体験ーでした。
現地の方から、日本語で教わりました。
楽しかったです。
The boat crew was very fun, always teasing us a little and making us laugh, which made the experience really enjoyable.
The three South American people who were riding with us were also friendly and engaged in conversation, which added to the enjoyment.
Since we were both flying together, we couldn't take pictures of each other, but it was great to chat while flying and have a lively time together.
ボートのクルーがとても楽しい人で、ちょっかいをちょこちょこ出してくれたり、笑わせてくれたりしてとても楽しかったです。
一緒に同乗していた南米系の3人組の方たちも気さくに話しかけてくれて、とてもエンジョイできました。
二人一緒に飛ぶので、お互いの写真を取り合うことはできなかったのですが、一緒に話しながら飛べたので、きゃーきゃーワイワイできてよかったです。
On December 27th, I participated with my husband and daughter. It was our first experience, but thanks to the precise guidance of our instructor, Mieko, we were able to land on the island! I was impressed by Mieko's teaching ability and her personality. We were blessed with the best weather and had a really fun day. We also took a lot of photos, which became wonderful memories. I would love to participate again next time.
12月27日、夫と娘と三人で参加。
初めての体験でしたが、インストラクターのミエコさんの的確なご指導のおかげで、島に上陸できました!
ミエコさんの指導力と、人柄に感動
最高のお天気にも恵まれ、とっても楽しい一日をすごすことができました。
写真もたくさん撮っていただき、本当にいい思い出になりました。また、次回も参加したいです。
Dear Asako,
Thank you for participating in the tour and for your comments. We are delighted to hear that you enjoyed Mieko's lesson. When you come to Hawaii again, please do visit Kailua. Our entire staff is sincerely looking forward to welcoming you.
Thank you.

It was a fantastic adventure. The staff was friendly and professional and the trip was awesome!
The staff spoke very friendly Japanese and chatted with us the whole time, which was really fun. They helped us catch waves that were easy to ride, and I was able to stand up! I even felt like I wanted to challenge myself with slightly bigger waves! It was that fulfilling!
とてもフレンドリーな日本語を話せるスタッフがいて、ずっと喋ってくれてとても面白かったし、サーフィン自体も乗りやすい波に乗せてくれて立つことができました!!もう少し大きな波に挑戦もしたくなりました!そのくらい達成感があります!!
When I heard we were going to the island across, I thought, "Really!?" But it turned out that sitting and paddling was easier than I expected. I realized that standing on the board requires getting used to falling and having some momentum (laughs). Thanks to Mieko, both my daughter and I were able to stand and paddle, and the scenery of the island was amazing! Thank you very much!
向かいの島に行くと聞いた時は「本当に!?」と思いましたが、思ったより座って漕ぐのは大丈夫でした。ボードに立つには落ちることへの慣れと勢いだな、と思いました(笑)みえこさんのお陰で娘も私も立って漕ぐ事もでき、島の風景も最高でした!有難うございました!
Dear P'ina,
Thank you for participating in the tour and for your comments. We are delighted to hear that you enjoyed the lesson with our instructor Mieko. When you come back to Hawaii, please do visit Kailua again. In addition to SUP lessons, we also offer SUP without lessons, as well as kayaking and more. We look forward to seeing you again.
Sincerely,
The Japanese Staff at Kailua Beach Adventures

The bus arrived at the meeting place on time. The distance to the jet ski location was about 30 minutes, and there was a lot of waiting time even after we arrived. The jet skiing itself was enjoyable, although it was cold since it was December, and we had fun going around three poles. However, I highly recommend wearing goggles, which cost $10 per person. Additionally, the end time was significantly delayed. The simulation at the time of booking indicated we would get off the bus at the meeting point at 10:00, but the jet skiing ended at 10:30, and the next bus was at 11:00. They helped us call a taxi, which was a relief, but it was an unexpected expense. I really recommend planning with plenty of buffer time.
集合場所に時間通りにバスが来ました。
ジェットスキーを行う場所までは距離があり30分程で、到着してからも待ち時間が多かったです。
実際に行ったジェットスキーは、12月だったため寒かったですが、3つのポールをグルグルと回るという内容で十分楽しめました。
ただ、ゴーグルを付けることを絶対にオススメされ、1人10$かかりました。
また、終了時間が大幅に遅れます。予約時のシュミレーションでは10時に解散場所でバスを下りる予定でしたが、ジェットスキーが10時半に終わり、その後のバスが11時とのこと。タクシーを呼んでいただき助かりましたが、突然の出費。本当に余裕を持って予定を組むことをオススメします。
I was a bit anxious because the bus didn't arrive on time at the meeting place, but it came about five minutes late.
Inside the boat, there were no other people from Japan, so I was nervous because I couldn't understand what was being said.
However, they taught us how to ride using gestures, which made it really enjoyable! During the parasailing, I even got to see dolphins, which was very moving.
I was able to experience parasailing in the vast and beautiful ocean of Hawaii, creating wonderful memories.
I also purchased an SD card containing the photos taken for $33, and I'm looking forward to seeing them.
We were able to return to the hotel mostly on time.
集合場所に時間通りにバスが来なかったため少し不安もありましたが、5分過ぎたあたりに来ました。
ボート内、説明の方とも日本から来た人がいなかったため、話してる内容が分からなくて緊張しました。
ですが、ジェスチャーで乗り方を教えて下さったのですごく楽しむことが出来ました! パラセール中にはなんとイルカも見ることができ、とても感動しました。
ハワイの広く大きな海でパラセーリングを体験することができ、素敵な思い出が増えました。
撮影して下さった写真のデータが入っているSDカードも、33$で購入でき見るのが楽しみです。
だいたい時間通りにホテルに戻ることができました。
Fortunately, I was able to encounter a sea turtle! I also got to swim alongside a large school of fish, making it an unforgettable experience.
ラッキーなことにウミガメに遭遇することができました!魚の大群とも一緒に泳ぐことができ、忘れられない経験になりました。
Dear Basho, thank you for participating in the tour. We are very happy to hear that you enjoyed it! Hanauma Bay is truly a wonderful place filled with various types of fish and marine life, and it's always a joy to swim there. It was great that you got to see sea turtles as well. We hope you will consider joining us again the next time you visit Hawaii. Thank you very much. Mahalo!!
ばしょう様、この度はツアーにご参加いただき、ありがとうございます。
とても楽しんでいただけたようで、私達スタッフもとても嬉しいです!!本当にハナウマ湾は色々な種類の魚や生物たちがいっぱいで、毎回泳いでいても本当に楽しい所です。ウミガメにも会えて、本当によかったですね。
是非またハワイにお越しの際にはリピートしていただければと思います。
本当にありがとうございました。Mahalo!!
Two guides accompanied the nine participants. The guides carefully observed the overall condition of the participants while searching for sea turtles. Thanks to their solid support, even I, who cannot swim, was able to participate until the end without dropping out. I was worried about the cold due to my slim build, but I rented a wetsuit, so I managed to endure it (though I was shivering in the second half). I was able to see cute sea turtles, which became a wonderful memory. Thank you very much.
9名の参加者に対して2名のガイドさんがついてくれました。
ガイドさんはウミガメを探しながらも参加者全体の様子をよく観察しています。
しっかりとしたサポートのおかげで泳げない私でも脱落することなく最後まで参加できました。
痩せ型のため寒さを心配していたのですがウェットスーツをレンタルしたのでなんとか耐えられました。(後半は体が震えていましたが)
可愛いウミガメを見ることができてとてもいい思い出になりました。
本当にありがとうございました。
Dear Ryoko, thank you for joining the tour with Blue Hawaii Divers. Currently, it's winter in Hawaii, so the water temperature is low. Thank you for your perseverance until the end. I'm glad you got to meet the cute turtles at Hanauma! I hope to see you again when you visit Hawaii. Thank you very much. Mahalo!!
りょうこ様、この度はブルーハワイダイバースのツアーにお越しいただき、ありがとうございます。
今はハワイも季節的には冬ですので、水温も低いです。最後まで頑張っていただきましてありがとうございます。ハナウマの可愛い亀さんにも会えてよかったですね!
是非またハワイにお越しの際にはお会いできればと思っております。
本当にありがとうございました。Mahalo!!
It was my first time trying stand-up paddle surfing, and I was worried about causing trouble for the other participants, so I joined a private lesson. At first, I had a hard time standing up, but thanks to the instructor's kind advice, I was able to enjoy it very much in the second half! Thank you so much!!
スタンドアップパドル・サーフィン自体初めてで、ツアー参加者にご迷惑をおかけするのはどうかと・・・プライベートレッスンに参加しました。
最初はなかなか立てなかったのですが、インストラクターの親切なアドバイスのお陰で後半は非常に楽しむことが出来ました♪
本当に有難うこざいました!!
I had a very enjoyable and great experience! When I was blown by the wind up in the air, it shook quite a bit, and I felt a little scared. But that added to the thrill, and it was good!
I was looking forward to being able to take photos and purchase them for $30, but it seems I needed to apply before getting on the boat, so I was disappointed that I couldn't get the photos... I think I'll make sure to check properly next time.
とても楽しくいい経験ができました!
上空で風に吹かれた際にかなり揺れて、少し恐怖を感じました。ですがそれもスリルがあってよかったです!
写真を撮っていただけて30ドルで購入できるとのことで楽しみにしていましたが、船に乗る前に申請する必要があったようで、写真をもらえず残念でした…次からはきちんと確認しようと思います。
My son was SUPER excited to go snorkeling so we booked a day through Veltra. Our driver showed up within 5 minutes of our pickup time (a feat with traffic) and got us going. He was very personable and helpful in getting us our equipment. We had an AMAZING day at Hanauma Bay (reef-safe sunblock only, people!) He was right on time for our pickup and turned on the AC so we could sit comfortably while waiting for the rest of the guests to return. We had a great amount of time to be in the water and had so much fun! My son got an acceptance call to the first choice college while we were waiting. Our driver said Congrats and even again as we were getting out of the van. It
was a fabulous day.
The kids experienced the 150m ride! They were a bit nervous since it was their first time, but the cheerful local guy really got them excited! He even took photos for us, and thanks to him, we had a very enjoyable time on the boat both while waiting for the kids' turn and after it was over! I plan to sign up again the next time I go to Honolulu! The shuttle also arrived on time in front of the hotel, which was reassuring.
子供達が150m体験しました!初めてで少し緊張していましたが、ノリノリで盛り上げてくれた陽気な現地のお兄さん‼️
写真も撮ってくれたり、子供達の番がくる時も終わってからもボートの上はお兄さんのお陰でとても楽しい時間を過ごすことができました❣️
次回ホノルルに行く時も申し込もうと思ってます!
送迎もホテルの前に時間通り来てくれたので安心でした。
It was my first experience, but I wasn't scared. I took some footage with my phone. I rode with two other people. We went for 150 meters.
初体験でしたが、怖くありませんでした。自分の携帯で様子を撮りました。他の人2人と一緒に乗りました。150Mにしてみました。
