All Reviews for Watersports & Ocean Adventures

The area is just a gem for snorkeling, and the live music on the boat added such a fun, laid-back time!

a unique and fun experience for myself wife and daughter to enjoy something so new!

We had so much fun! The crews are very friendly as well. The pick-up location is very easy to find.

On the day of the event, I arrived at the designated location mentioned on the voucher 20 minutes early, but no one was there. From past experiences, I had heard that they tend to be a bit loose with time, so I decided to enjoy a morning meal at a nearby café! Even after 10 minutes past the meeting time, no one showed up, so I started to worry. When I looked at what seemed to be the reception booth, I saw a notice! It said the NEW location is here! I hurriedly took a taxi and arrived just in time for the departure!

Seeing the green boat docked was a relief! However, when I tried to check in, I was told there was an oil leak and that the boat wouldn't be departing today... What?! I ended up just paying for the taxi and taking a walk along the coast! It was such a shame since it was a beautiful sunny day with no wind or waves, perfect for fishing! I really wished they had contacted us in advance if the meeting place had changed!

当日は集合20分前にバウチャー記載の指定場所へ行くも誰もいない。過去の体験談から時間にルーズ気味という情報があったので、優雅に目の前にあるお店でモーニング！集合時間10分過ぎても誰もこないので、心配になって受付らしき小屋を見ると何やら張り紙が！NEW ロケーションはここ！だと！！急いでタクシーで向かい出船時間ギリギリに到着！
緑の船が停泊しているのをみて一安心！受付を済ませようとしたところ、どうやらオイル漏れがあり今日は出船できないと言われました。。。何だと〜〜！！ただただタクシー代払って海岸を散歩しただけでした！
快晴で風も波もなく釣り日和だっただけに非常に残念です！まずは集合場所が変わったのなら事前に連絡が欲しかった！

The banana boat and bumper tube were thrilling and a lot of fun! 😃 The staff also entertained us with some tricks. Parasailing goes further out from the banana boat location, so the waves were high and I felt a bit seasick. However, when I went up during parasailing, it was breathtaking! 😍

バナナボート、バンパーチューブはスリル満点でとても楽しかったです😃スタッフの方々もフェイントしたりして楽しませてくれました。パラセーリングはバナナボートの地点からさらに沖にでるので波が高く少し船酔いしました。しかしパラセーリングで上に上がった時は感動しました😍

The boat ride to get there was amazing! The band was lively, and the staff inside were very friendly. The color of the sea was completely different, and even when looking at the photos later, the clarity stood out! There was plenty of time to enjoy paddleboarding, canoeing, and snorkeling. The donuts on the boat were also very delicious! I highly recommend this tour!

行くまでの船も最高でした！バンドも盛り上がり、中にいるスタッフの方たちもフレンドリーでした。
海の色が全然違って、後で写真を見ても透明度が際立っていました！
サップやカヌー、シュノーケル、ひと通り楽しんでも充分時間がありました。
船の中のドーナツもとても美味しかったです！かなりオススメのツアーです！

The weather was nice, so the view from above was wonderful. I would like to do it again. The captain was friendly and made everyone enjoy the experience. I definitely recommend trying this when you go to Hawaii.

お天気が良かったので上空からの眺めが素晴らしかったです。またやってみたいと思いました。船長さんも気さくでみんなを楽しませてくれました。ぜひハワイに行ったら体験することをおすすめします。

It was my first experience, but I was able to stand up smoothly. Since it was private and for kids, the instructor pulled us along until we got to the reef, which saved our energy and allowed us to enjoy surfing.

初体験でしたが、すんなり立てていました。
子供でプライベートだった事もあり、リーフに行くまでインストラクターが引っ張って連れて行ってくれたので体力を削らす、楽しく波乗りが出来ました。

I did jet skiing and parasailing. For jet skiing, I received explanations in Japanese, and I was able to ride it even as a beginner! As for parasailing, the instructions were partly in Japanese, but I enjoyed it without any difficulties.

ジェットスキーとパラセーリングをやりました。
ジェットスキーは、日本語で説明して頂き、初めてでも乗ることが出来ました！
パラセーリングは所々日本語という感じでしたが、なんの不自由もなく楽しませて頂きました。

We had a wonderful experience and thoroughly recommend this tour! Our guide was knowledgeable and safety conscious. It made for a lovely time together exploring beautiful Hanauma Bay.

It was a fun boat trip. The crews were all very friendly and helpful.

At first, I thought canoeing was completely impossible, but by the end, it felt like the last remaining canoe was inviting us to give it a try. I quickly paddled like a Viking, while my wife just managed to get the kayak into the water. Although she acted as a brake, we were able to return to the mother ship without capsizing. Thank you for the first experience of canoeing.

最初はカヌーなんて、とても無理と思っていましたが、最後に残っている一台のカヌーが、私たちに是非挑戦してみませんか？と語りかけてくれているように思え、、、、
私の方は直ぐに、バイキングのように漕げたが、家内は、カイを海にを入れるだけで、
ブレーキともなりながらも、転覆もせずに
母船に帰る事ができました。
初めてのカヌーの経験、ありがとうございました。

My wife and I participated in a 150-meter high course. I was a bit anxious about seasickness and the first-time experience of parasailing, but with assistance in putting on the equipment, I was able to enjoy the experience with peace of mind. We wore swimsuits and shared one bath towel. For valuables, I recommend only bringing a room key and about 60 dollars in a waterproof case for your smartphone. There are no lockers, and since there are other participants, you will have to leave your belongings behind while flying.

For an additional 40 dollars, they will take about 150 photos, including some great shots of Diamond Head and ones that make it look like you’re being eaten by sharks. The photos can be downloaded directly to your smartphone or saved on an SD card right there. At the end, they gently drop you into the sea, so you will definitely get wet!

On the day we experienced this, there were some clouds over the island in the morning, but from above, the scenery was quite magical and very enjoyable. By the way, the boat and the air can be quite bumpy due to the wind, so if you are prone to motion sickness, it’s a good idea to take some medication.

The captain and the assistant were fun and lively, so don’t hesitate to strike up a conversation with them. Since you’ve come all the way to Hawaii, the most important thing is to have fun. Definitely give it a try!

妻と２人で高さ１５０メートルのコースに参加しました。
船酔いや、初体験のパラセイルで不安でしたが、器具の装着も手助けがあり安心して体験出来ました。
服装は水着で、荷物はバスタオルを２人で１枚持ちました。
貴重品はスマホの防水ケースに入れたルームキーと60ドル程度のみがオススメです。
ロッカーなどはありませんし、他の参加者もいますので飛んでいる最中は置きっぱなしになります。
プラス４０ドルで１５０枚ほど写真を撮ってくれますし、ダイヤモンドヘッドやサメに食べられているような写真も上手に撮ってくれます。
写真はＳＤカードとその場でスマホにダウンロードしてくれます。
最後は海にゆっくり落としてくれますので確実に濡れます！

体験した日は朝イチで島には少し雲がかかっていましたが、上空からは逆に幻想的な風景でとても楽しめました。
ちなみに船や上空でも風で結構揺れますので酔いやすい方は酔い止めを飲んだ方が良いです。

キャプテンと補助のお兄さんは楽しく盛り上げてくれますので、思い切って会話してみてください。
せっかくハワイに来たのだから、楽しむのが１番です。
是非チャレンジしてください！

The staff were cheerful and it was a lot of fun! SUP and kayaking in such beautiful scenery was the best! Snorkeling was also amazing, as I saw large fish and colorful fish that left me in awe! It became a very enjoyable memory!

とにかくスタッフの方々が明るく楽しかったです！とても綺麗な景色の中でのsupやカヤック最高です！Snorkelingも大きい魚や、色鮮やかな魚たちが見えて感動でした！とても楽しい思い出になりました！

In a vacation packed with tours to make the most of our time in Hawaii, Dan has stood out as the best guide. He was excellent communicating with us prior to our tour, he was friendly, knowledgeable, and efficient throughout the day. There were young kids on our tour and I observed that he was particularly attentive to their safety. Most importantly, he helped us create one of our most beautiful memories of this special place. Mahalo, Dan!

I was an English driver, and it was helpful that they tried to communicate using tools like Google Translate. Since we had five hours, we could snorkel for quite a long time. My husband didn't apply sunscreen because he thought it would wash off anyway, and he ended up with a terrible sunburn the next day, so I recommend taking proper precautions. (There is an announcement to use reef-safe sunscreen.)

英語ドライバーでしたが、
Google翻訳などを使って伝えようとしてくれて助かりました。
5時間あるのでかなり長時間シュノーケリングができます。
夫が日焼け止めはどうせながれるからとぬらなかったら、翌日酷く日焼けして大変だったので、しっかり対策することをおすすめします。(リーフセーフの日焼け止めにするようにアナウンスがあります)

I have a bit of a fear of heights, but I decided to make a reservation to enjoy the beautiful scenery. I was worried about whether I would understand the instructions, but the instructors were very friendly and communicated with me in simple English, so it wasn't a problem. I don't usually experience motion sickness, but after reading other people's experiences, I took some motion sickness medication just in case. The boat rocked more than I expected, so I was glad I took it. I asked for photos to be taken at the reception, and after the experience, I received the data and an SD card. The photos captured my surprised face when we took off and my happy face as I was immersed in the sea, and I’m glad I purchased them. Floating gently, I was able to slowly admire the beautiful sea and Diamond Head; it was a very beautiful and wonderful experience.

高所恐怖症気味ですが、せっかくのきれいな景色でと思い切って予約しました。説明など理解できるか不安でしたが、インストラクターの方々も感じ良く、簡単な英語のみでコミュケーション取っていただけるので問題ありませんでした。乗り物酔いはほとんど経験がないですが、他の方の体験記を読んで念のため酔い止めを飲みました。船が思った以上に揺れるので、飲んでよかったです。受付の際に写真撮影をお願いし、終わってからデータとSDカードを頂きました。飛び立つ際のびっくりした顔や海に浸かる瞬間の楽しそうな顔が写真に残り、購入してよかったです。ふわふわと浮かびながら、きれいな海やダイヤモンドヘッドをゆっくりと眺めることができ、とても美しくて素敵な体験でした。

Incredible! The blue sea and the breathtaking panorama! I think it's something everyone should experience at least once! I want to experience it again next year.

とにかくすごい！の一言
青い海と絶景パノラマです！
1度は体験すべきだと思います！
来年もまた体験したいと思います。

I participated in a fishing tour six years ago and joined again after a long time. Unlike six years ago, services such as transportation, light snacks (I can't say for sure if drinks were provided, but I feel like there were some), and grilling the caught fish on-site to enjoy together have disappeared. Because of that, I thought I would be happy if I could catch even one fish. In the end, I didn't catch a single fish, but it didn't seem like the people around me were catching many either, so it might have just been a bad day. It felt more like a pleasant cruise with a view of Diamond Head. 😂

６年前にも参加して、久しぶりにまたフィッシングツアーに参加しました。
６年前と違い、送迎、軽食（ドリンクはあったか定かではないですがあったような気がします）、釣れたお魚をその場で焼いてみんなでいただく、などのサービスはなくなっていて、だからこそ、１匹でも釣れたらうれしいなと思いました。
結果は１匹も釣れずに終わりましたが、なかなか、周りの方もどんどん釣れている感じはなかったので、日が悪かったのかもしれません。
ダイヤモンドヘッドを見ながらの景色のよいクルージングという感じでした😂

I made a reservation for Wednesday after the park's closure, but I was really disappointed by the lack of fish. However, since both the ocean and the beach are beautiful, I think it’s worth going if you focus on enjoying the beautiful sea.

休園日後の水曜日に予約したのですが…凄く魚が少なくて残念でした。
ただ海もビーチも綺麗なので『綺麗な海を楽しむ』をメインにすると行く価値があるかと思います。

We had a good time bonding as a family, all the staff were very friendly and accommodating, even our bus transportation was smooth. We enjoyed most the banana boat ride and snorkeling. My husband took our video with a selfie stick while riding the banana boat and it was hilarious to watch all our faces! We went home with all smiles on our face. It’s worth what we paid for!

We participated as a couple with our child who is in the third grade. We chose a morning course in mid-June. The shallow area was indeed shallow, but for elementary school students, it was about 140 centimeters deep, so they couldn't touch the bottom at all. The shallowest part was just about reachable. The weather was cloudy with occasional sunshine, but it was very beautiful, and our child loved it. We rode together on a kayak as a group of four, sat on a paddleboard with just our child, and even let our child paddle alone while we held the rope.

The welcome food, donuts, seemed to be very delicious.

We participated in a set plan with a banana boat and an octopus boat, but the octopus boat was thrilling enough to be scary even for adults. (Next time, we probably won't participate.)

小学3.1年生の子供と夫婦とで参加。6月中旬午前中のコースを選びました。浅瀬は浅瀬でしたが、小学生は全く脚つかず深さ大体140センチ位。一番浅いところはどうにか着くかなぁといった深さ。天気は曇り時々晴れといった具合でしたが、とっても綺麗で子供も大絶賛。カヤックに4人で乗ったり、サップに子供と2人で座って乗ったり、はたまた子供のみ乗せて大人がヒモを持って子供1人でパドリングを楽しんだり。

ウェルカムフードとしてドーナッツもとてもおいしかった様子。

バナナボートとタコのボートのセットプランに参加したのですが、タコのボートは大人でも怖いくらいにスリル満点でした。(次はきっと参加しない)

I became interested through a media introduction. I participated with my elderly parents in their 70s, and it was enjoyable as long as you weren't the one paddling. We were able to experience the planned three waves. A professional photographer takes pictures, but I would have appreciated being able to easily use my own phone or camera.

メディアの紹介で興味を持ちました
70歳台の高齢両親との参加でしたが、漕ぎ手でなければ楽しく参加できました
予定の3回波のりを体験できました
プロのカメラマンが写真撮影をしてくれますが、自分の携帯かカメラを容易に使用できると嬉しいなと思いました

Five out of the six groups were Japanese, but all six groups had a sense of unity and it was very enjoyable. This was likely because the staff were fun and friendly, and they always took care to communicate in simple Japanese and clear English while we were putting on our gear on the boat heading out to sea. The world above during parasailing was surprisingly calm. Next time, I want to try other activities as well.

６組中５組が日本人でしたが、６組全てのグループが一体感がありとても楽しかったです。
それはスタッフの方が楽しく友好的で、
海上へ向かうボート内で、装具を付ける際も、いつも片言の日本語とわかりやすい英語で気遣ってくれたからと思います。
パラセイリングの上空は意外にも穏やかな世界でした。
次は他のアクティビティも挑戦したいです。

The tide was just right for snorkeling. If the tide had been lower with the sandbar exposed, snorkeling would have been difficult. In addition to snorkeling, you can also experience SUP and kayaking. I wish I had tried SUP as well.

シュノーケリング目的だったので、潮位はちょうどよかった。サンドバーが出ている潮位だと、シュノーケリングは難しかったかな。シュノーケリングのほかに、SUPやカヤックも体験できます。ＳＵＰもやってみればよかった。

We participated as a couple in our 60s. The two young American staff members who took care of us were cheerful and engaged us in conversation in English. They prepared everything carefully, and before we knew it, we were launched into the air. The fear I had imagined was completely absent, and I was thrilled by the pleasant tension and the wonderful scenery.

夫婦２人(60代)で参加しました。担当してくれたアメリカ人青年2人は明るくて、英語でしたが色々話しかけてくれました。準備を丁寧にしてくれて、沖に出るあっという間に空中に放たれました。想像していた恐怖感は全くなく、ここち良い緊張と素晴らしい景色に興奮しました。

I happened to be the only participant, so it turned into a private charter. It feels like riding a swing 150 meters above the ground. There's nothing else like it. Overlooking the ocean and gazing at Diamond Head is breathtaking. The wind feels amazing! Is the tip $20? There was a $20 bill clipped to the boat, so it felt like I had to pay that amount, haha. But I definitely recommend it!

たまたま他の参加者がいなくて、プライベートチャーターになりました。150メートル上空でブランコに乗っているような感覚です。これは他にはありません。海を見下ろしてダイヤモンドヘッドを眺めるのは圧巻です。風が最高に気持ちい！チップは20ドル？ボートに20ドル札がクリップされていて、なんか20は払わなきゃならない雰囲気でした笑。でもぜったいオススメです！

Overall a fun experience. Staff is friendly and the sandbar is beautiful!
The overall tour is just a little too long and the boat is a little dirty.

It was my first time parasailing, and the guide was interesting, making it a fun experience. Thank you!

初めてのパラセーリングでしたが、ガイドさんもおもしろく楽しい体験ができました。ありがとうございます！

I invited my colleagues on a company trip for the first time and we went on a catamaran yacht. The view of Diamond Head and Waikiki Beach from offshore was amazing. The wind was blowing, making for a fantastic sailing experience, and we even encountered dolphins swimming alongside us and saw sea turtles. It was the best cruising experience. When I mentioned that I had some sailing experience, the captain kindly let me operate the winch and take the helm, creating unforgettable memories. Thank you to the captain and the crew. My colleagues, who were on a yacht for the first time, were also very satisfied with the cruising experience. If I have the opportunity again, I definitely want to ride on the Mai Tai again.

初めて会社の旅行で同僚を誘いカタマランヨットに乗りました。
沖合から見るダイヤモンドヘッド、ワイキキビーチは最高です。また風も吹いてヨットとしての走りも最高、さらにイルカの並走、ウミガメにも遭遇し最高のクルージングでした。私がヨット経験者だと伝えるとキャプテンの計らいでウインチ作業、舵も握らせて貰い、最高の思い出になりました。キャプテン、クルーの皆さん有難うございました。初めて乗った同僚もヨットのクルージングに大満足しておりました。
また機会があれば必ずマイタイ号に乗りたいと思います。
