All Reviews for Watersports & Ocean Adventures

The 150m extreme ride was amazing.
Indeed, altitude is important for parasailing!
I had experienced a lower altitude before, but this was on a different level.
The breathtaking view from the highest point is something you can never experience from the ground.
If you are going to try parasailing, definitely choose the 150m option.

高さ150ｍのエクストリームライド最高でした。
やはりパラセイルは高度が大切ですね！
以前にも低い高度のそれを体験したのですが段違いでした。
最高地点からの絶景は決して地上からでは体験できない最高の眺めです。
皆様もパラセイルを体験するなら是非150ｍを選択してください。

This was fun, it was a windy day which made the kayak out to the island a little harder, but Hayley our guide was a great guide. The groups are kept small which makes it better.The staff are all very friendly, it's well organised, and there was a nice choice of 4 different free lunches that came with the activity.

The bus arrived late at the meeting point, which made me worried, but it came 8 minutes late. If the road was congested, it can't be helped.
The activity was extremely satisfying. My husband, who was scared, seemed to enjoy it so much that he said he wanted to do it again! It seems that parasailing is available in other places on Oahu, but I'm glad we chose this one where we could enjoy the view of Waikiki. We also had a great time with the other participants.

On the day of the reservation, it was canceled due to rain. We didn't know it was canceled until we called the local office. After the call, I received an email from Veltra. I think it would be reassuring to know in advance who will contact us and how, and by what time before the meeting.

集合場所にバスが来るのが遅かったので、心配していたのですが、8分遅れで来てくれました。道が混んでたなら、仕方ないですね。
アクティビティは大満足の内容でした。怖がっていた旦那さんも、もう一回やりたい！と話すくらい、楽しめた様でした。オアフ島内他の場所でもパラセーリングは
出来る様ですが、ワイキキの街を眺められるこちらを選んで良かったです。また、同乗の方々とも楽しい時間を過ごすことができました。

予約当日は雨で中止となりました。こちらが現地の事務所に電話するまで中止かどうかわかりませんでした。電話してから、veltraさんからメールが来ました。予め、集合何分前までに、誰から、どんな方法で連絡が来るか分かると安心できるとおもいます。

Parasailing was incredibly fun. The staff responded to my limited English conversation, and communicating with other foreign guests, even in broken phrases, was enjoyable. My son said it was the most fun he had on this trip.

However, I was a bit surprised by the local disbandment. It would be perfect if there was support for the return trip. Best of luck to you.

パラセーリング、すっげー楽しい
スタッフの方もつたない英会話に反応してくれましたし、
外国のお客様方とコミュニケーションも片言ですが楽しい
息子も今回の旅行で一番楽しかったと言っています

ただ現地解散というのがちっとびっくりしました。
帰りのフォローあれば完璧です。
ご健闘よろしくお願いします。

This was my second time snorkeling, and even though I'm not good at swimming, I was able to enjoy the tour thanks to Dan and Chieko, who paid careful attention to everyone. They also lent us rescue vests, which made it easy to float while swimming, so I highly recommend this tour for those who aren't very confident in their swimming skills. Additionally, I was thrilled to encounter a sea turtle. I think it would have been difficult to see one on my own. Dan also took photos during the tour with a high-performance camera, and he uploaded them on the same day after the tour, allowing us to download them for free. So, I recommend this tour even for those who don't have an underwater camera.

シュノーケルは２回目、水泳は苦手、という私でも、DanさんChiekoさんが皆に丁寧に目を配ってくださったこともあり、ツアーを楽しむことができました。
レスキューベストも貸してくださり楽に浮いた状態で泳げるので、水泳があまり得意でない方にはぜひこのツアーをお勧めしたいです。
また、ウミガメに遭うこともでき感激でした。
自力ではウミガメに遭うことは難しかったと思います。
また、Danさんが高性能のカメラでツアー中写真を撮ってくださっており、ツアー終了後その日のうちに写真をアップしてくれ、無料でダウンロードすることができます。
なので、水中カメラがない人にもお勧めです。

So first of all, you are up in the air for only 5-7 minutes, however the excursion is about 1-1.5 hours long. You take a few boats out to your final destination before you go up, which is from the boat.

The views from off the shore of Hawaii Kai are stunning. Waikiki views just don't company because it is all built up.

We had a great time and the staff were really awesome and entertaining too.

My friends and I had a good time here. Many different thinks to keep us occupied. Love seeing the sea turtles.

Very disappointing. We had to decide as soon as we got off the bus what time we wanted to be picked up - 10 AM or 12 noon. Had we known how long it would take us to actually get into the water, we would have chosen noon! We were picked up at 7 AM, got to the Bay about 7:45, had to stand in line to get tickets, wait our turn to see a required film (very good actually), and then walk about 10 minutes down to the Bay, and then stand in another line to get a locker for our bags. We did not get into the water until almost 8:45, more than an hour after we had been picked up. THEN, we find our that the snorkel/mask ensemble was so inflexible that we could not get it to work properly! The mouthpiece was too rigid, would not form a tight seal and kept pulling to one side, and my husband's snorkel actually kept coming unhooked from the mask! Had we known this, we would have bought our own equipment at the ABC store for $10 and actually been able to snorkel! As it was, we spent until 9:30 trying to get the equipment to fit, and then had to head back to the bus for the 10 AM pick-up. Had the connection between the mouthpiece and the snorkel tube been accordion-like and flexible, it would have been a lot better. If you plan to go on this trip, bring your own equipment and be prepared to not get into the water right away. The Bay is beautiful and the water was wonderful, but our experience with the inflexible pick up time and equipment was not wonderful!

I was moved by the beautiful sea and sky. I had been very busy shopping until then, so it was soothing and felt really nice.

The instructor was also very lively and it was fun.

綺麗な海と空に感動しました。
それまで買い物で大忙しだったので、癒されて、とても気持ち良かったです。

インストラクターさんも、ノリが良くて、楽かったです。

The transparency of the water is different compared to other beaches. I didn't get to see any turtles, but they seem to be around often. The guide was great and took a lot of photos for us. It's a good plan since you can return to the hotel by lunchtime.

ほかのビーチにくらべると透明度が違います
カメさんには会えませんでしたが、よくいるみたいですよ
ガイドさんもよくってたくさん写真も撮ってくれます
お昼にはホテルに戻れるのでそんなプランにはいいかもです

It was a great experience! We had Greg as the driver and he was great and informative about local deals in Oahu. We were also really lucky and got the whole boat to ourselves. Usually, I hear, people sit in a group of 10-12 people.

Great day at the north beach. We chose the waterfall hike as our activity in the morning. You could have done snorkelling or bike rides if preferred. We then had free time on waimea bay beach. In the afternoon we had a free lunch instead of doing another activity such as kayaking. Saw sea turtles at a beach on the way home

I had the best time surrounded by the beautiful blue sea, the wind, and the sunny Hawaiian weather. Honestly, I usually get seasick on cruises, so I was hesitant, but I'm really glad I took the plunge and signed up for this truly Hawaiian tour. There were about three groups of Japanese people as well. The speed wasn't too fast, so even small children were enjoying themselves. I highly recommend it! (*^^*)

美しい青い海と風とハワイらしい太陽とお天気に恵まれて最高の時間を過ごせました。正直私は必ずクルーズは酔うので苦手だったのですが本当にハワイらしいツアーで思いきって申込して良かったです。日本人も3組位いらっしゃいました。そんなにスピードが出るわけではないので小さいお子さんも楽しまれてましたよ。是非お薦めです(*^^*)

I have been coming to Hawaii for over 10 years and have experienced various activities, but it was a reasonable and exciting experience. I was able to see a honu (sea turtle), but it would have been amazing to see dolphins.

ハワイには10年以上来ており、いろいろアクティビティーも体験しましたがリーズナブルでエキサイティングな経験でした。
ホヌには会えたけどイルカに会えたら最高でした。

You can enjoy a lively atmosphere that feels like "The America" since Japanese is not widely understood here. In Waikiki, there are many Japanese people, but here you can relax and high-five with people from various countries and share lots of laughs. It definitely feels like a great experience.

日本語が通じないので、ザ☆アメリカというノリのいい雰囲気を楽しめます。
ワイキキだと日本人が多いけど、ここではいろんな国の人とのんびりハイタッチしたり、大笑いしたり。
かなり乗ってよかった感があります。

We went to Hawaii again as a couple during Silver Week. This time, I wanted to include snorkeling at Hanauma Bay, so I booked this tour. To be honest, I initially applied for the tour "Hanauma Bay with a Certified Veteran Guide," which had many reviews and experiences, but it was not available, so I chose this tour instead. Unfortunately, it rained from the morning. During snorkeling, there was heavy rain and waves, and the sand was stirred up, making it difficult to see the fish clearly. Moreover, the approximately one hour of snorkeling was cold, and I was shivering after getting back on land.

However, I can't go against nature, so I hope to try again on a sunny day next time. I have snorkeled at several places in Honolulu, but when it comes to seeing fish, it can't compare to Guam, Saipan, or Southeast Asia's Cebu and Phuket.

Nonetheless, I think the tour was very good because the guide explained everything earnestly and assisted us well. Another highlight was that we unexpectedly got to see a honu (sea turtle).

シルバーウィークに夫婦でまたハワイに行ってきました。今回は念願のハナウマ湾のシュノーケリングを入れたかったのでこのツアーを予約しました。正直に言いまして、最初は評価も体験談も多い、「公認ベテランガイドといくハナウマ湾」のツアーを申し込みましたがリクエストＮＧでしたので、このツアーにしました。当時は、あいにく朝から雨。シュノーケリングの時も大雨で波もあり、砂が舞い上がっており、きれいに魚は見えませんでした。しかも約1時間のシュノーケリングは寒く、陸に上がった後は寒さで震えていました。　　
でも自然には逆らえないので、今度は晴れた時に再チャレンジできたらと思います。
ホノルルでは何か所かでシュノーケリングしましたが、やはり魚を見るならば、グァム、サイパンや東南アジアのセブ島やプーケットなどには かないませんね。
でもガイドさんが一生懸命説明してアシストしてくださり、ツアーとしてはとてもよかったと思います。
また期待していなかったホヌと会えたのがよかったポイントです。

I waited for about 15 minutes for the pick-up. It was mentioned that there would be a "trolley with a logo to greet us," but no one came despite waiting... I kept an eye out every time a car stopped, but there was no sign of the right vehicle. After more than 15 minutes had passed, I started to feel anxious and decided to call. They told me, "It already passed." I hurriedly took a taxi to the location where the boat was departing and managed to make it in time for the tour.

When I spoke to a Japanese woman at the reception about the absence of the vehicle and the fact that we weren't called, she responded as if it was our fault, saying, "We don't call names, you know? Others have gotten on." The vehicle I saw was just an ordinary van without any logos.

Having participated in various tours before, I noticed that the pick-up staff usually have a list of participants. If it was just a regular van, at least they could have mentioned the tour name... The pick-up location in front of the Duke statue has many cars stopping, and since it also serves as a meeting point for other tours and a trolley stop, it is quite difficult to identify a non-logo vehicle as the tour vehicle without any guidance.

The guide on the boat was a local who entertained the participants well, but the fact that we made others wait and the unpleasant attitude from the Japanese woman at the reception turned what should have been a fun memory in Hawaii into a disappointing one.

Pick Up 15分ほど前から待機。
「ロゴ入りのトロリーでお迎え」とあったが、待てども待てども来ず...。車が止まるたびに気にして見ていたがそれらしき車はなく。
時間を15分以上過ぎても来ないため、さすがに不安になり電話をかけてみると「もう通った。」とのこと。
タクシーで慌てて船が出る場所まで向かい、なんとか参加には間に合いました。
受付に日本人の女性がいたためそれらしき車が通らなかったこと、特に呼ばれもしなかったことを伝えたところ「名前は呼びませんよ？他の人は乗ってきてるんですよ？」と逆に私たちのせいだと言わんばかり。
車を見るとロゴも何もないただのワゴン車でした。
今まで色々なツアーに参加してきましたが送迎の方は必ず参加者のリストを持っていたし、普通のワゴン車なのであればせめてツアー名だけでも言ってくれれば良いのに...と思います。
Pick Up場所のデューク像前は止まる車も多く、他のツアーの待ち合わせ場所やトロリー乗り場にもなっているため、案内もなしにロゴの無い車をツアーの車だと判断するのはかなり難しいです。
船に乗ったガイドさんは現地の方で参加者を楽しませてくれましたが、他の参加者を待たせてしまったこと、受付の日本人女性にすごく感じの悪い態度を取られたことで、ハワイで楽しい思い出を作るはずが残念な思い出となりました。

On the day of the event, perhaps due to the strong winds, my wife and child were able to participate in the first round, but during the second round (myself and my child), our parachute got tangled, and we were unable to participate. It was very disappointing.

参加当日風が強い事もあった為かどうかはわかりませんが、妻と子供の1回目は参加できたものの２回目の参加時に（私と子供）パラシュートが絡まってしまい参加する事が出来ませんでした。非常に残念です。

Last time it was canceled due to strong winds, so this time we got our revenge.

The view while feeling the wind is amazing, unlike the scenery seen through the airplane window. I'm glad we chose to go as high as possible.

We went as a couple, but the kids who came in a group and rode in the three-seater seemed to be having a great time together.

You can take photos yourself, but it's also fine to take turns with the people you're riding with, so there's no need to worry about photos.

I saw a post saying that the pickup time wasn't kept, but when we arrived right on time, they were already waiting for us. It might be luck, but I think it should be fine.

前回は強風で中止になってしまったのでリベンジ。

飛行機から窓越しで見る景色と違って、風を浴びながらの眺めは最高。
一番高くに上がるのにしてよかった。

うちらは夫婦二人で乗ったけど、グループで来て３人乗りに乗ってた子達も、ワイワイやってて楽しそうだった。

写真は、自分でも撮れるけど、一緒に乗ってる人達で順番に撮りっこすればいいから、写真は心配いらないです。


ピックアップ時間が守られないって投稿があったけど、時間ピッタリに行ったら、もう待っててくれてた。
運があるかもしれないけど、大丈夫なんじゃないかな。

The underwater scooter allowed us to dive deep into the water, and it was so much fun to see beautiful tropical fish gathering right in front of us. We could also view swimming sea turtles from below, which offered a different kind of enjoyment compared to snorkeling.

I was surprised that the staff took photos and videos for us (which can be downloaded later for a fee online), and they were very attentive, skillfully guiding couples underwater and helping them hold hands.

There was also a female staff member who spoke Japanese, which was reassuring. It seemed like there was time for snorkeling as well, but we went by boat to a sandbar in a different location. The sandbar in Kaneohe was indeed amazing.

水中スクーターは水中深く入り、本当に綺麗な海の熱帯魚が目の前にすごく集まって来たのが楽しかったです。泳いでいる水カメも下から眺めることができ、シュノーケリングとは違った楽しさがありました。
びっくりしたのは、スタッフが写真と動画を撮ってくれたのですが（後でネット経由で有料でダウンロードできます）、カップルで参加した場合、二人を水中でうまく誘導し手を繋がせるなどサービス精神に満ちていました。
ちょうど日本語のできる女性スタッフもいて安心でした。シュノーケリングも時間があればできたようですが、私たちはボートで別の場所のサンドバーに行きました。
サンドーは、やはりカネオヘの方がすごいです。

We participated as a family of four (with a 2nd-year middle schooler and a 5th grader). The hotel pick-up was smooth, and we felt reassured that the American husband spoke Japanese without any issues. The two women were snorkeling for the first time, but they were kindly taught and had no problems enjoying it at all! The masks and snorkels were also the latest models and very clean. It was a bit disappointing that we didn't get to see any turtles and that the time at Hanauma Bay felt a bit rushed.

家族4人で参加しました。（中学2年・小学5年）
ホテルからの送迎もスムーズで、アメリカ人のご主人も日本語問題なく安心できました。
女性2人は初シュノーケリングでしたが、親切に教えてもらいまったく問題なく楽しめました！
マスクやシュノーケルも最新できれいでした。
亀に会えなかったのと、少し時間が短くﾊﾅｳﾏ湾でばたばた感があったのが残念でした。

The staff were awesome, casual enough so that everyone felt at ease but professional enough that we both felt safe, heaps of fun, would recommend to everyone.

I have a significant fear of heights, but I had no problems at all!! The reason I decided to challenge myself to jump from 150 meters was because I saw everyone's experiences.

Since I participated alone, I jumped with others. Everyone was supposed to jump from different heights, but from the boat, they all looked like they were at the same height. The price varies depending on the height, so I'm really unsure if the person I jumped with was actually at the same height as me. Was it possible they were lower than 150 meters? Did the person I jumped with not actually want to jump from 150 meters? If that could be clarified, it would have been incredibly fun☆

I definitely recommend taking photos. I think they make for great memories. If they could also provide photos (or videos) from above while jumping, that would be even better. I want to jump again when I go to Hawaii!! The staff made it enjoyable, so I created wonderful memories.

かなりの高所恐怖症の私ですが、全く問題ありませんでした！！
そんな高所恐怖症の私が150メートルに挑戦してみようと思ったのも、みなさんの体験談を見たからです。

１人で参加のため、他の人と飛びました。みなさん飛ぶ高さが違う・・・はずですが、
船から見ていると全部同じ位の高さに見えました。
高さによって値段は変わるので、私と一緒に飛んだ人は果たして同じ高さだったのかものすごく微妙です。
実は１５０メートルより低かったんじゃないか？
一緒に飛んだ人は１５０メートル希望じゃないんじゃないか？と。
そのあたりがクリアになれば、ものすごく楽しかったです☆

写真も絶対にオススメです。良い記念になると思います。
飛んでいる上からの写真（映像等）もできる様になれば、もっと最高だと思います。
またハワイに行ったら飛びたいです！！
スタッフの皆さんが楽しませてくれたので、良い思い出が出来ました。

Cracias por sus atenciones y amabilidad y de igual forma gracias por hacer de nuestra luna de miel algo inolvidable

Rained most of day, so sopping wet weather in water or not. Confusion all day about activities etc.

I initially made a reservation for 9/7 at 10:00, but when I arrived at the port, thunder started, and due to the captain's judgment, the trip was unfortunately canceled. I was able to rebook for the earliest available time at 13:00, and this time we were able to fly! I experienced this twice in Bali, but in Hawaii, we went much further out and climbed really high, so all three of us were very satisfied. The motorboat experience from the port to the open sea was also fun. I often hear about the pickup taking a while, but in our case, we were surprised to find the bus waiting for us as soon as we stepped outside. However, the return of the boat seemed to be delayed, so if you have a tight schedule, it might be frustrating. The tip was displayed as $8 on the boat, and since I wasn't prepared with $1 bills, I panicked and ended up giving more, which meant I didn't have any tip left for Yano, our driver. Thank you, Yano, for the fun conversation and drink service. I'm sorry I couldn't give you a tip. I was worried about my valuables and only brought minimal cash, not taking my card, but I should have brought a bit more to buy an SD card.

最初9/7,10:00を予約したのですが、港に着いた時から雷が鳴りだし、船長の判断であえなく欠航。当日の一番早い空き時間帯13：00で再予約でき、今度は飛べました！バリ島でも2回体験しましたが、ハワイのはずいぶん沖まで出て、高く高く上がったので3人とも大満足～港から沖までのモーターボート体験も面白かった。お迎えがとかくココナッツタイムと、よく聞きますが、私たちの場合は、むしろ外に出たらもうバスが待ってる状態でびっくりしました。ただ船の帰港は遅れがちな感じで、あまりタイトな予定を組むとイライラするかも。チップは8ドルって船内に表示があって、1ドル札を準備していなかったのでうろたえて、多めに渡してしまい、送迎のヤノさんのチップが無くなってしまいました…ヤノさん楽しい話、飲み物サービスに感謝しています。チップ渡さなくてごめんなさい。貴重品が心配で、最小限の現金だけで、カード持って行かなかったけど、も少し持って行ってSD買えばよかった

At first, there was a lecture in the room under the guide's instruction. I was worried as a beginner, but the sea was beautiful, and I was satisfied to be able to go to the island across. On the way back, I managed to stand up. It was fun. The guide was great too.

最初、ガイドの指導で部屋でレクチャー。初心者で心配したが、海がきれいで、向かいの島まで行けて満足。帰りはなんとか立てるまでに。楽しかった。ガイドも良かった。

All staff were professional and helpful and had a great time. The only thing was one of the gals helping had her whole but showing and thought that was unprofessional. I don't mind some butt showing but the whole thing?

I signed up for the trip to Hawaii just before departure because my daughter said she really wanted to try it. On the day of the event, it was drizzling occasionally, and while I was worried, we waited for the shuttle. As we waited longer and felt anxious, a staff member from Japan called to let us know we were at the wrong pickup location, and after that, we were successfully picked up. The parasailing experience was more refreshing than I had expected and turned out to be a valuable experience. My daughter says it’s her favorite memory from the trip!

せっかくならやってみたいという娘の一言でハワイへ出発直前に申し込みました。
当日は小雨が時折降る天気で心配しつつ送迎車を待っていましたが、なかなか来ないので不安になっていると日本のスタッフの方が電話をくれて待つ場所を間違えていたことがわかり、その後無事ピックアップしてもらいました。
パラセーリングは思っていた以上に爽快で貴重な体験となりました。娘も旅の一番の思い出と言っています！

I was worried about whether they would come to pick me up after making a reservation online, but they arrived right on time, and the driver was very cheerful! The parasailing itself was blessed with clear skies, and I was able to fly in the best conditions! It became such a wonderful memory!♡

ネットでの予約で、ピックアップしに来てくれるのか不安でしたが時間にはちゃんと来てくれて、運転手さんもとても明るい方でした‼︎‼︎本題のパラセーリングは快晴に恵まれ 最高のコンディションで飛べました‼︎‼︎とっっても良い思い出になりました♡
