All Reviews for Watersports & Ocean Adventures

The boat ride was enjoyable thanks to the cheerful staff. They also take great photos, which is fantastic. If you want the photos, it costs money, so it's good to bring some. It's at your own risk, but you can experience the ride while holding a GoPro or your phone. I was nervous, but thanks to the friendly and attentive staff, I had an amazing time. There was also a local female staff member who spoke Japanese. She doesn't board the boat but is in the hut, so the procedures are安心. Overall, you can leave everything to them and enjoy in elegance, which was truly wonderful!

移動の船の上も、陽気なスタッフさんのおかげで楽しい。写真もしっかり撮ってくれるし最高です。写真が欲しかったらお金がかかるので持ってくとよし。自己責任ですがゴープロや携帯を持ちながらの体験が可能です。緊張しましたが陽気で丁寧なスタッフさんのおかげで最高な時間を過ごせました。日本語を話せる現地女性のスタッフもいらっしゃいました。その方は船には乗りませんが小屋にいるので手続きなど安心。とにかく全てを任せて優雅に楽しめるのでほんとに最高でした！

We were the only Japanese passengers among many! It was refreshing to not see any other Japanese people on the optional tour in Hawaii! The yacht was a catamaran, so there was no side-to-side rocking, making it extremely stable! The wind was refreshing as we sped along! We enjoyed the beautiful blue waters to our heart's content while drinking beer. They even stopped the yacht along the way so we could all experience jumping in. I want to ride again the next time I come back!

数々の乗客で日本人は自分達2人だけでしたね❗
ハワイのオプショナルツアーで逆に日本人が居ないのが新鮮でしたね❗
ヨットはカタマランなので横揺れがないのであんていせい抜群❗
風を受けて突っ走る、風が心地よい❗
ビールを飲みながら、青いを思う存分楽しめました｡
途中でヨットを停めてくれて、皆で飛び込みも体験させてくれる。
次回また来た時にもまた乗りたい❗

I had a great time. After the tour, I was often asked for tips, but this tour not only provided a lot of fun but also offered free photos to upload on Facebook! Finally, in the car that took me back to the hotel, they shared various interesting stories without asking for any tips at all. It's a really good tour company.

とても楽しかったです
結構ツアー参加後に、チップを要求されることが多かったのですが、このツアーはいっぱい楽しませた上に、写真まで無料にfacebookにアップしてくれます！最後に、ホテルまで送ってくれた車の中で、いろんな面白い話をしてくれながら、チップを一切要求しませんでした。
とてもいいツアー会社です

I was able to fully enjoy Kailua Town, Kailua Beach, and Lanikai Beach all at once. It was great that I could bike around. The Bob's Pizza I had with the lunch voucher was also very delicious. I had plenty of time and was very satisfied!

カイルアタウン、カイルアビーチ、ラニカイビーチと一度に全てを満喫できました。自転車を使って行き来できたのもとても良かったです。ランチ券でいただいたボブズピッザもとても美味しかったです(^^)
時間もたっぷりあってとっても満足できました〜

I wanted to experience SUP at Kailua Beach, but unfortunately, due to strong winds, we ended up having the experience on a river instead. After the SUP experience, we went to Kailua Beach, but the wind was so strong that the sand blowing around was painful. I understood that this was unavoidable. The guide also mentioned, "You wouldn't make any progress in the ocean either."

During the SUP experience on the river, the sky was cloudy, which allowed me to focus on SUP without worrying too much about sunburn. It seems that without waves, it's easier to ride. The guide told us, "The ocean and the river are completely different," so if I have the chance next time, I would like to challenge myself with SUP in the ocean.

After SUP, we had about two hours of free time, including lunch, and fortunately, it cleared up in the afternoon, so I enjoyed bodyboarding at Kailua Beach. The water temperature was just right, and with the wind, there were decent waves, making bodyboarding a lot of fun. The beautiful scenery of Kailua Beach, which is different from Waikiki Beach, was also great.

カイルアの海でSUP体験したかったのですが、残念ながら強風の為に
川での体験となってしまいました。
SUP体験後にカイルアビーチに行きましたが、本当に風が強くて吹き
飛ばされた砂が痛いくらい。これじゃ仕方ないと納得。
ガイドさんも「海に出ても進まないので」と言われてました。
川でのSUP体験中は曇り空。おかげで日焼けをあまり気にせずSUPに
集中する事ができました。波が無い分、乗りやすいみたいです。
ガイドさんからは「海と川では別もの」と言われてたので、今度機会が
あれば、海でのSUPにチャレンジしたいです。
SUP後は昼食含めて2時間ほど自由行動ですが、午後は晴れてくれたので
カイルアビーチでボディボード遊びに興じました。
水温も適度で、風がある分波もそこそこ、ボディボードが楽しくて。
ワイキキビーチとは違った、カイルアビーチの素晴らしい景色も
良かったですよ。

It was so much fun! The crew was very kind! Once we got out to sea, it was quite rocky, so I recommend taking motion sickness medication! We gave a $20 tip for the two of us!

とっても楽しかったですー！船の人も優しい！沖に出て、結構揺れるので、酔い止め服用をおすすめします！チップは二人で20ドル渡しました！

The wait time was a bit long, and the schedule was delayed by over an hour, but it was a lot of fun! It was thrilling✨ The pickup arrived on time without any issues. Since there can be delays, it's better to allow some extra time for your next plans!

待ち時間が少し長く、時間は一時間以上ずれましたが、とても楽しかったです！スリル満点✨ピックアップも問題なく時間通りに来ていただきました。時間のずれ込みがあるので、次の予定は余裕を持っていれた方がいいですー！

The cheerful staff made it a fun experience. It was great that they could understand a little Japanese too. The shuttle service was very smooth and arrived on time. If I have the chance to go again, I would like to try parasailing!

陽気なスタッフさんで楽しかったです。
少し日本語も通じるので良かったです^_^
送迎もとてもスムーズで時間通りにきていただきました^_^またいく機会があったらパラセーリングしたいと思います^_^

It was Amazing and terrifying at the same time! I'd do it again.

I was worried about the weather, but everything went smoothly. Our group consisted of four family members, another family of four, and a couple. Everyone was Japanese. Swimwear is recommended. Towards the end, there was a service where you get splashed, so you will get wet. I wore aqua shoes so that my footwear wouldn't get wet, but I was told to take them off when jumping. I personally think flip-flops would be fine as long as you are careful not to slip when boarding. If you're worried, wear non-slip shoes. I took photos from above with my own camera and also purchased the photo service SD card for $30. We had two flights with two people each from our family, but we were able to buy the card for all four of us for $30. It seemed like not many others purchased it, but there were about 100 images on the card. It’s a nice keepsake, and I’m glad I bought it. When we got off at the end, I gave the captain a $30 tip for the four of us. I used a total of $60 in cash.

天候が心配でしたが、無事にできました。
ウチが4人家族、他に4人家族がもう1組とカップル1組。

On the day I signed up, I received a cancellation call from the local company around 9 AM due to strong winds (I was glad I used the hotel phone since I didn't have an overseas phone). They asked if I wanted to reschedule for another day, and I initially canceled. However, since the weather was bad and other optional activities were also canceled, I had some free time and was able to adjust the schedule via email and participate again. As an option, having the staff take photos while flying costs an additional $30 (including an SD card, which they hand over to you). Also, since I had a great time, I gave a tip to the boat staff.

申し込んだ日は強風のため、午前9時頃ホテルに直接現地の会社から中止の電話が来ました（海外用の電話は持っていなかったので、ホテルの電話にしておいて良かったです）。別の日にするか聞かれ一度キャンセルしたのですが、天候が悪く他のオプション参加も中止になったため時間が空いてしまい、再度メールにて日程調整して参加することができました。オプションとして、飛んでいるところをスタッフに撮影してもらうと＋３０ドルです（SDカード込みで、そのまま渡してくれます）。又、楽しかったので、ボートのスタッフへチップを渡しました。

I participated in the 120m plan available only in the early morning. My wife, who is not fond of heights, was worried about joining, but once she experienced it, she found that she didn't feel much height at all and was able to enjoy the pleasant breeze, the blue ocean, and the view of Diamond Head.

Although it comes at an additional cost, I recommend the $30 photo package. We were able to get about 100 photos taken.

早朝限定の120mプランで参加しました。
高い所が苦手な妻は、参加を心配していましたが、実際に体験してみると、高さをあまり感じず、気持ち良い風と、青い海、ダイヤモンドヘッドの景色を楽しむことができたようです。

現地での別料金になりますが、30$の写真がおすすめです。
100枚ほど写真をとってもらえました。

This was my first time snorkeling in Hawaii. The weather was the best it had been during our stay, and since it was an afternoon tour, it wasn't cold at all—the timing was perfect! My wife, who can't swim, was able to glide through the water for an hour of snorkeling with the help of a life jacket and fins, thanks to Chieko's clear explanations and teaching style. We were amazed by the colorful small fish and schools of large parrotfish and ladyfish right in front of us. At one point, Dan called us over, and we saw a sea turtle up close. It was my first time seeing a sea turtle at such a reachable distance, and I was truly moved. I think this was the best snorkeling experience I've ever had. Although I couldn't take good pictures with my underwater camera, I was really glad to be able to download photos from Dan's Facebook. Thank you for a wonderful time that I could get lost in. Next time, I plan to join this tour again with my daughter and her husband and my grandchildren.

ハワイでのシュノーケリングは初めてでした。
滞在中で一番良い天気だったことと、午後からのツアーだったので寒くもなく、タイミングはバッチリでした！
泳げない妻もライフジャケットとフィンをつけて、ちえこさんのわかりやすい説明と教え方で１時間のシュノーケリングをスイスイと泳ぐこと出来てびっくりでした。
目の前を色とりどりの小魚や大きなアオブダイやレディーフィッシュの群れ…
途中でダンさんに呼ばれて近くまで行くと海ガメがいました。
手の届くような距離で海ガメを見るのは初めてで本当に感動しました。
今まで体験したシュノーケリングで一番良かったと思います。
持参した水中カメラも上手く写せなかったのですが、ダンさんのFBで写真もダウンロードさせてもらえて本当に良かったです。
夢中になれる素敵な時間をありがとうございました。
次回は娘夫婦や孫たちと一緒にまたこのツアーに参加しようと思います。

I experienced 150m parasailing on my honeymoon. I discovered this option while searching for activities on my own, as the optional tours from the travel agency were far from the hotel and quite expensive. I was attracted by the proximity to the hotel, reasonable pricing, and early morning schedule, so I decided to book it.

On the day of the experience, they picked me up close to the hotel, and we set sail immediately upon arrival, which was great as there was no wasted waiting time. During the experience, the atmosphere was very homey, with everyone cheering and clapping as others took off and returned.

However, the waves in the Hawaiian sea were higher than I had imagined, so I think taking motion sickness medication is necessary. There were long periods of time when we were stationary during others' experiences, and the boat rocked enough for waves to come inside, which made me feel a bit queasy.

But once I was up in the air, it was truly a breathtaking view! From 150m high, I could see all of Waikiki, and the scenery was exhilarating. Before flying, they asked, "Are you okay with the GoPro?" and "Do you want to buy an SD card?" I recommend both. The landing in the water was dynamic, and if you mention that you want to purchase a card, they will take plenty of photos.

When I returned home and looked at the photos on my computer, there were over 100 images! I was amazed that it was only $30 for that. I was really happy about it.

With a 7:45 AM pickup, we arrived back at the hotel shortly after 9 AM, so I was able to spend the rest of the day meaningfully. It was a wonderful experience. Thank you very much.

新婚旅行で150mのパラセイリングを体験しました。旅行会社のオプショナルツアーはホテルから遠く、体験料も高かったので、個人で色々探しているときに発見。
ホテルからも近く、体験料も良心的、朝早い、ということに魅力を感じて申し込みました。
当日はホテルの近くまでお迎えに来てくれて、着いたら即出航。無駄な待ち時間もなく、よかったです。
体験中は同乗の方たちが飛んでいったり、戻ってくるとかけ声と拍手で盛り上げながらだったので、とてもアットホームな雰囲気でした。
ただ、ハワイの海は想像以上に波が高かったので、酔い止めの服用は必要だと思いました。
他の方の体験中は停船している時間も長く、揺られて船のなかに波が入ってくるくらいでしたので、途中から酔いそうになりました。
しかし、いざ飛んでみると、まさに絶景！150mの高さからワイキキを一望でき、すばらしい眺めに大興奮です。
飛ぶ前に「ジャボンOK？」「SDカードは買う？」と聞かれるので、両方をおすすめします。海への着水もダイナミックですし、カードを購入すると伝えるとたくさん写真を撮ってくれます。
帰国してからパソコンで見ると、100枚以上のデータが！これで＄30とは驚きです。
本当に嬉しかったです。
7時45分のピックアップで9時過ぎにはホテルに到着したので、その後の時間も有意義に過ごせました。
素晴らしい体験になりました。ありがとうございました。

Very knowledgeable guide and great kayaking! Good conversation and very understanding to beginners

It was my first time kayaking, and I had a great time. Before heading out to sea, we received a brief lesson on paddling, but it was still a trial by fire. However, I gradually got used to it, so my anxiety faded away.

Our guide, Ryusei, really boosted our spirits, making the kayaking experience even more enjoyable. Thank you very much. I definitely recommend going with a guide. The staff members were also very kind.

However, during the drive from the meeting point to Kailua Beach Adventures, the driver (who was not Japanese) didn't greet us at all. Additionally, on the return trip, there was no announcement like "The next stop is ○○," so if I had dozed off, I would have missed my stop. Is this just part of the responsibility in Hawaii...? Even if they can't speak Japanese, I think they should at least provide this information.

But the kayaking was fun. I would like to try it again next time.

初めてのカヤックでしたが、十分楽しめました。
海に出る前に簡単な漕ぎ方を教わりますが、やはりぶっつけ本番です。でも段々と慣れていくので不安はなくなります。

ガイドのりゅうせいさんが気分を盛り上げてくれ、より一層楽しいカッヤック体験になりました。ありがとうございました。
是非　ガイド付きをお勧めします。スタッフの方々も優しいです。

しかし、集合場所からカイルアビーチアドベンチャーズまでの道中運転手さん（日本人ではない）が何の挨拶もなし。また復路ではカイルアビーチアドベンチャーズがら解散場所まで、「次の停車場所は○○です」の案内がないので自分が寝過ごしてしまったら最後、降りるべき所で降りれない。これもハワイ、自己責任なのでしょうか・・・
日本語が話せないとしてもこれだけは案内すべきと思います。

でも、カヤックは楽しかったです。次回もやってみたいです。

I have done this activity several times in several locations. This was the best, because it was close to Waikiki (walking distance from the Hilton/Ilikai), great crew, great experience. Best in Honolulu

At first, I was scared of parasailing and hesitated to sign up, but seeing is believing!

最初、パラセーリングが怖くて申し込もうかどうか悩んだ上で参加しましたが、
百聞は一見に如かずです！

I participated in the morning shuttle. The tour company staff were friendly and kind to the children, and my 7-year-old daughter enjoyed the view from 150 meters. I was worried about the kids getting seasick, but there were no problems. After the parasailing, the speed of the boat on the way back to the port was exhilarating, almost like a different activity. We were able to return to the hotel before 9 AM, so we had plenty of time to play for the rest of the day. It was a great experience.

朝一の送迎で参加しました。
ツアー会社の方の人柄が良く、子供たちにも親切に接していただき、
7歳の娘も150mからの景色を楽しんでいました。
子供たちの船酔いを心配していましたが、問題ありませんでした。
パラセイリング終了後、帰港するときの船のスピードも爽快で
別のアクティビティのようでした。
ホテルには9時前に帰ってくることができたので、その後も一日たっぷり
遊ぶことができました。いい体験ができました。

We had Awesome time Snorkeling. The fish were beautiful and very colorful. Dan was very patient with me. He is a great instructor. Hawaii was absolutely Gorgeous!

We joined this tour because we wanted to participate as a group of three, including one child. Besides us, there were groups of a family of three and two siblings, and everyone was able to ride with their desired number of people. The altitude increased quickly from the start, but I didn't feel any fear; I just felt joy and comfort. Before we boarded, they asked if we wanted photos taken, and when I requested it, they took some fun pictures for us. I would love to participate again.

子供1人含む3人で参加したかったのでこちらのツアーに参加しました。
我々以外には3人の家族や2人の兄弟？で参加されている組がいましたが、それぞれ希望の人数で乗れていました。
開始からすぐに高度が上がりましたが、特に恐怖感はなく、ただただ楽しさ、気持ち良さを感じました。乗る前に撮影して欲しいかを聞かれたのでお願いしたら面白い感じで写真を撮ってくれましたよ。また参加したいです。

The beginning snorkel was perfect for our family! We saw so many fish a sea turtle! We would do this again for sure. Our guides were attentive and made sure we we safe and not missing a thing. This was perfec for us since we were all 1st time snorkelers.

We can’t wait for the next time.

We experienced it together as a group of three. It was very smooth, and we were extremely satisfied! I was a bit scared before jumping, but once I floated up, it felt great the whole time. Occasionally, when a strong wind blew, it swayed, which added to the thrill. I didn't purchase the photos, but it became a wonderful memory. I want to do it again!

３人で一緒に経験しました。とてもスムーズで、大満足です！とぶ前は少し怖かったのですが、ふわっと飛んだらあとはずっと気持ち良かったです＼(^o^)／時々強い風が吹くと揺れて、それもまた良いスリル感でした。
写真は購入しなかったのですが、とても良い思い出になりました☆またやりたいです！

I experienced seasickness, and both my mother and son vomited. We were apologized to, but we were called names like "Vomit Family" and "Yellow Family," which made us feel very uncomfortable. In the end, we were also forced to give a tip. It was the worst experience.

I hope that in the future, the captain and guides will not be involved in the tourism industry to prevent such incidents. The term "yellow" is something that cannot be overlooked.

船酔いし、母親の私と息子が嘔吐しました。それに対して謝罪しました。ですが、ゲロファミリーやイエローファミリー等と散々言われ、とても嫌な思いをしました。最後にチップも強制されました。最悪でした。

今後このようなことが起きないよう、船長やガイドが観光業に関わらないよう願います。
イエローという言葉はとても看過できるものではありません。

Last year, my parents had a great time on their trip to Hawaii, which is why we made this reservation. It was my mother's second time, and it was my first time parasailing, but thanks to the friendly staff, we enjoyed a fun flight. On the day of our flight, there was only one other couple besides us, so it wasn't busy, which was nice. The weather was clear, and perhaps because there was a little wind, we experienced some turbulence in the air. My mother seemed to get a bit seasick, but after a while, she settled down. I felt like the view from above was completely different from what you see from the ground. After we landed, we paid $30 to receive an SD card with the photos. All the pictures captured natural expressions, and they made for a wonderful keepsake. I would love to experience this again next time.

昨年、両親がハワイに旅行に行った際に楽しかったからと言う理由で今回予約をしました。母は２回目、私はパラセイリング初めてでしたがフレンドリーなスタッフさん達のおかげで楽しいフライトを楽しめました。当日は私たちの他に１組のカップルだけだったので、忙しくなく良かったと思います。またお天気も快晴で少し風が吹いていたからかもしれないが、上空で揺れました。母は少し酔ってしまったようですが、少し経過して落ち着いたようです。地上から見るのと上空から見るのでは、また違った景色を見ているように感じました。到着後、＄３０を支払写真のSDカードをもらいました。どれも自然な表情の写真ばかりで、とても良い記念になりました。また次回も体験してみたいと思いました。

Shopping in Hawaii is great, but if there's a beautiful ocean right in front of you, I thought it would be nice to enjoy it from a high place, so I joined this tour.

I also made my 70-year-old father and 67-year-old mother participate in the 150-meter parasailing. Both of them gave a thumbs up as a good sign when they came down. The boat was small and quite rocky. I read in the experiences that "it might be good to have motion sickness medication," so I brought some just in case, and I took it as soon as we headed out to sea. Thanks to the tension of the upcoming parasailing and the rocking, I easily started to feel a bit nauseous. I think it's definitely a good idea to take the motion sickness medication beforehand.

From takeoff to landing, it takes about 10 minutes, which feels quite long. We took off in a line of three, which is said to be more stable. If there are any scared people, please fly together with them. Instead of sitting in a chair, it's a type where you connect a harness. So even in the air, the parachute swayed left and right, which wasn't very pleasant.

When the rope started to wind up and we got closer to the boat, I pointed down (toward the sea) at the captain, and he made sure to drop us into the water. Those who weren't wearing swimsuits or didn't want to get wet landed normally. If you're going to do it, why not get dropped into the blue sea and make the boat experience more exciting?

ハワイでお買い物三昧もいいですが、綺麗な海が目の前にあるなら、高いとこからそれを眺めるのも良いんじゃないかと思いこのツアーに参加。

70歳の父親と67歳の母親も150メートルのパラに強制参加させました。２人とも降りてくるなら親指を立ててグッドこサインをしてました。
船は、小さな船で結構揺れます。体験談に「酔い止めが有ると良いかも」って書いてあったので保険のために持って行きましたが、沖に出てすぐに飲みました。
これから始まるパラへの緊張と揺れのお陰で、簡単に気持ち悪くなることができました。まず酔い止めを飲んでおいて間違いは無いと思います。

テイクオフから降りてくるまでは、約10分。結構長く感じます。横並びの３人でテイクオフしましたが、その方が安定するとのこと。怖がりの人がいるなら一緒に飛んであげて下さい。
椅子に座るのではなく、ハーネスを繋げる感じのタイプ。なので上空でもパラが右へ左へ揺られて、あまり気持ちのいいものではありませんでした。

ロープが巻き取り始めて船まで近づいた時に、キャプテンに向かって下（海面）に向かって指を指差すと、ちゃんと海に落としてくれます。
水着を着てなかったり希望しない人は、普通に着地してました。
折角なら青い海に落としてもらい、船を盛り上げては如何ですか？

We did Parasailing for the first time and it was truly Awesome!

This was one of my favorite activities on my vacation. The entire team was very nice and made sure we understood what we were doing and had a good time. I really enjoyed being able to be underwater to see the fish and sea turtles without having to learn to scuba dive or deal with snorkel gear below the surface of the water. The pictures and video from the activity were also very well done and a good price.

This was our second visit with our two children (two years in a row). The crew is entertaining, and it’s always the best experience no matter how many times we go. Check-in is fine in Japanese, so there’s nothing to worry about. We’ll definitely come again!

子供２人と２回目（２年連続）の利用でした。
クルーも楽しませてくれるし、何度やっても最高。チェックインも日本語で問題ないし、心配もないです。
またお願いします！！

The cheerful crew really got everyone excited, and we were able to compete and take photos with other families on the same boat. When we actually flew, we were able to enjoy the best views, and it was a valuable experience. I definitely want to recommend this to anyone visiting Honolulu!

1. It's reassuring to put your phone in a waterproof pouch.
2. I think it's good for children to have motion sickness medication.

クルーの陽気な方がとても盛り上げてくれて、同じボートに乗る他の家族の方たちとも手を張り合ったり写真を取り合ったり出来ました。
実際に飛んだ時は最高の景色を眺めることができ、貴重な体験が出来ました。
ホノルルに遊びに行く人には是非オススメしたいです！
１つ 携帯は防水ポーチにいれると安心
２つ お子様は酔い止めがあるといいと思います。
