All Reviews for Watersports & Ocean Adventures

We had a blast! Took the 8 minute ride and throughly enjoyed ourselves. The views were awesome, the crew was fun, and overall would highly recommend it. We did purchase the pictures, taken by the crew, for $10 after, typically I don't purchase things like this post activity, however the price was fair and the pictures were very good. I also liked the fact that the entire experience didn't consume our entire day or afternoon. We took advantage of their transportation, hotel pickup, which was also entertaining. Greg was an excellent driver, courteous, and very friendly. Overall was an excellent experience and well worth the money/time. Thanks!

This was a great experience. It was our first time and my boyfriends first time being in Hawaii. He definitely enjoyed himself. Our service was great since the beginning when trying to get a date to parasail. It was a last minute thing and they squeezed us in perfectly. As soon as we get there they're all welcoming as I hurry to get paperwork done. Then we took off and our instruction guys were awesome very energetic and made us comfortable. We were nervous at first as our adrenaline rose watching the first couple, but then I just couldn't wait to get up there. We're up and again I become nervous we take off and get up there boom we're up high a little scary but a great feeling. We both enjoyed the scenery and just each other even more. Great experience a MUST do especially in beautiful hawaii.

We went parasailing with Hawaiian Parasail during our vacation in Hawaii. It was a great experience and I would highly recommend this to anyone who is going to Hawaii. We were picked up right on time. We arrived at the boat and were given brief instructions, after which we set off in the boat. Although we were all slightly nervous, the staff did a great job of setting us at ease and explaining what to expect. Soon thereafter, we were in the sky and getting a great view of Hawaii. We also had the opportunity to get pictures taken.
Overall a great and fun experience.

Great time - fun and professional crew, equipment in good condition.

This was my first time parasailing, and I didn't know what to expect. It was a windy day, so I was worried that I would swing in large arcs. Since I was by myself, the crew told me that I had to go with the other girls on the boat, which I was more than okay with. Once I was in the air, it was peaceful and the view was amazing. Although it was windy, we didn't swing too much. However, since it was windy, the crew did not dip us in the water. I guess I'll have to go again on a calmer day for that experience. All in all, it was an amazing experience that I will always remember.

I had my scuba dive with Dan and it definitely exceeded my expectations. I was rather nervous about it, but he was very patient and allowed me to take my time getting accustomed to the breathing and teaching me all the basic safety procedures. The dive itself was great, saw lots of fish and a sea turtle as well. Would highly recommend this for anyone that is doing their first dive!

Excellent staff and we surely enjoyed ourselves!!! A must to do when at Oahu!

Very nice - punctual - good driving trip for us passengers. It was a fine experience including reasonable pricing with snorkeling rental.

I was looking for beach activities that even a 3-year-old could participate in. Since it was suitable for children from 3 years old, we decided to join. My child was, of course, super excited, and so was Dad!! I really recommend it because even small children can enjoy it.

３歳の子供でも可能な海でのアクティビティを探していました。
ちょうど３歳から可能だったので参加してみることに。
子供はもちろん大はしゃぎ、パパも大はしゃぎ！！でした。
小さい子供でもできるので、本当にお薦めです。

It was my first kayaking experience, and I challenged myself without a guide! As a result, we were able to reach our destination island (Free Island) quite quickly, and paddling while chatting back and forth was a fun memory.

Although we didn't have a guide, we were able to watch some explanatory videos beforehand, and we could also observe other people kayaking (like foreign couples) to use them as examples. If there's a man around, you can manage without a guide (laughs).

It became the most exciting and fun memory I have in Hawaii!

初めてのカヤック体験でしたが、ガイドなしでチャレンジしました！
結果は、目的の島（フリーアイランド）に早々に辿りつけましたし、
二人であーだーこーだ言いながら、漕いだのは楽しい思い出です。

ガイドなし、でしたが事前のビデオでそれなりに説明は見れましたし、
周りにカヤックをやっている方（外人さんカップルとか）を見て
お手本にしたりも出来ました。
男性がいれば、ガイドなしでなんとかなるもんです（笑）

ハワイで一番燃えた楽しい思い出になりました！

Easy to make arrangments! Crew was kind, courteous and helpful! So happy we came to this business! Our girls had a blast and we are thankful for this opportunity

We participated as a couple. I was worried because I could hardly understand Japanese, but it was good that they used a projector with explanations mixed in Japanese. We did some stretching before entering the sea, but I almost gave up paddling out. The female instructor helps the women, but the men have to do it on their own. Do your best! I was able to stand up multiple times while surfing, and it was really fun. If you get seasick, be careful because you might get sick while surfing too.

夫婦で参加しました。
日本語がほぼ通じなくて心配でしたが、
説明は日本語混じりのプロジェクターを使っていたので良かったです。
ストレッチをして海に入るのですが、沖までのパドリングで挫折しそうでした。
女性はインストラクターの人が押してくれますが、男性は自力です。
頑張ってください。
サーフィンは何回も立つことができて、とても楽しかったです。
船酔いする方は、サーフィンでも酔うので気をつけてくださいね。

It was an awesome experience and I'm glad at the last minute we were able to make it happen. The employees are so welcoming and polite we enjoyed it from the time we left and to when we came back in. It is a must to try it out. Mahalos

We chose 120M and went up side by side. The staff skillfully handled the ropes, and we splashed into the water violently once, and there was also a splash during landing. It seems that the splash during landing can vary depending on the height chosen. It was a lot of fun. All the staff spoke English, so I didn't fully understand everything, but it was enjoyable. For $30, you can also request a photo package.

There is no space to change, so you board the boat as soon as you arrive. I strongly recommend wearing a swimsuit.

120Mを選択し、２人横並びで空へ。
慣れた手つきでスタッフがロープを操り、１度は激しく水面にインされ、
着陸時にもポチャっとインしました。着陸時の水ポチャだけの場合もあり、
選択した高さによって違うのかなという印象です。
とっても楽しいです。スタッフはすべて英語のため、理解できないままですが
楽しいです。30ドルでレフ写真もお願いできます。

着替えができるスペースはなく、現地についたらすぐに船へ乗り込みます。
水着着用を強くおすすめします。

It's easy to get around since it's close to the city center, and the time spent floating in the sky passes by in an instant. I definitely recommend getting photos taken, even if it's for a fee! They did a great job capturing them.

中心地から近いので行き来もラク、空に浮いてる時間はあっという間に終わります。
写真は有料でも絶対撮ってもらうのをオススメ！上手に撮ってくれてました。

We gathered at 2:30 and arrived right on time, but after checking in, we had to wait for 30 minutes because there was still time until 3:00.

I felt that the meeting time was a bit too early. I actually wanted to go longboarding, but since there were no waves, we switched to paddle surfing. It wasn't particularly difficult, so my wife got the hang of it quickly and was paddling out into the ocean with enthusiasm! The guide only spoke English, but he was very fun and friendly. There is a Japanese staff member at the reception, so it's reassuring.

2時半集合で時間ぴったりに行ったが、受付後まだ時間があるので3時まで時間をつぶしておいてくださいと30分待ちぼうけ。

集合時間が少し早すぎる気がしました。
本当はロングボードをしたかったけれど、波がないのでパドルサーフィンに変更。
特別難しくもないので妻もすぐなれて、ガンガン沖のほうまで攻めていましたｗ
ガイドの人は英語だけですがとても楽しく気さくな方でした。
受付には日本人のスタッフがいるので安心です。

The guide was fluent in Japanese, so anyone can participate with confidence. They kindly taught us how to snorkel in detail, which was very helpful. It's great that you can ask questions whenever you don't understand something. Hanauma Bay is rich in fish, and you can encounter a wide variety of them, making it feel like you're swimming in an aquarium. I was surprised that the fish didn't flee even when people were around, as it is a no-fishing zone.

This is a highly recommended tour where you can fully enjoy snorkeling!!!

I hope the coral will recover soon and that Hanauma Bay will return to its original beauty.

ガイドさんは日本語が達者なので誰でも安心して参加できます。シュノーケルのやり方を丁寧に教えてくれてとても親切でした。わからないことはすぐに聞けるのが良いです。ハナウマ湾は魚影が濃く
多種多様な魚に出会うことができ、まるで水族館の中で泳いでいるかのよう。
漁業禁止地区とのことで、人を見ても逃げない魚たちにビックリ。

シュノーケリングを存分に楽しめる、お勧めのツアーです！！！

サンゴが蘇り、早く元の美しいハナウマ湾に戻ると良いなと思いました。

The pickup staff's call was poor, and it seems like it took a long time at each location, which reduced our time on-site. However, the local staff were very accommodating, and we were able to have a great time. Kayaking on the river flowing through the resort area was also enjoyable. I highly recommend it. I would love to come back and take my time here.

ピックアップのスタッフの呼び込みが悪く、それぞれの場所で時間がかかってしまい、現地での時間が少なくなってしまたような気がしますが、現地スタッフの対応もよく、楽しく過ごすことができました。別荘地の中を流れる河川をカヤッキングするのも良かったです。ビザはお薦めです。また、ゆっくりと来たいところです。

There were three groups of participants, and we were the only Japanese. I was worried because the staff didn't speak Japanese, but there was no need to worry. Everyone focused solely on having fun, and we communicated just fine with gestures! We waved at the couple soaring in the sky, and when they returned, we high-fived! The weather was clear, there were no waves, and it was the best sky adventure. The tour lasted less than two hours, including transportation, so I was very happy to make good use of my time. I would love to participate again! ❤️❤️❤️

参加者は3組、日本人は私たちだけ、スタッフも日本語は？で不安でしたが、心配無用。皆、楽しむことだけに専念、身振り手振りで意思疎通ＯＫ！！空に舞い上がったカップルに下から皆で手を振り、戻ってきたらハイタッチ！！。天気も快晴、波もなく、最高の空の旅でした。ツアーの時間も送迎を含め、2時間足らずで、時間を有効に使えるのでうれしい限り。また参加したいです♡♡♡

This is an affordable tour that lasts about two hours from the beach near Hilton Hawaiian Village in the early morning. If there are many people, the wait time on the boat can be long, but during our time, there were only three groups, so it ended quickly.

It was 120 meters high, which was surprisingly high and a bit scary, but it was fun! I recommend it for those looking for an easy tour.

早朝からヒルトンハワイアンビレッジ付近のビーチから2時間ほどで終わる、値段も時間もお手軽なツアーです。多い場合は船の上で待ち時間が長くなりますが、僕たちの時は3組だったので、あっという間に終わりました。

120mだったのですが、意外と高く、ちょっと怖かったですが、楽しかったです♪お手軽なツアーをお探しの方にはオススメです。

I participated in a private lesson during my free time. I had a scary impression of surfing, but since the water was shallow, I didn't have to worry about falling into the sea, and I was able to stand up on my first try. The staff were all wonderful people, and the time spent floating in the sea together felt like being in a movie. Although the water is shallow, there are many rocks, so you need to be careful of cuts depending on where you fall. However, including the photos I bought at the end, it was an experience that made me want to do it again.

1人の自由時間にプライベートレッスンで参加。
サーフィンに対して怖い印象がありましたが、遠浅で海に落ちる恐怖もなく、初めてでも1度目で立てました。
スタッフの方々も素敵な人ばかりで、一緒に海に浮かんで休憩している時間は映画の中にいるようでした。
遠浅ですが岩が多いので、海に落ちる場所によっては切り傷に注意が必要です。
でも、最後に買った写真も含めて、また是非やりたいと思える体験でした。

My sister and I had a blast during this, our first, parasailing adventure. For anyone concerned about any jerking movements during take-off or landing, put your fears to rest. The ride was completely smooth and the view is breathtaking! One more thing crossed off our bucket list.

On the day, our guide "Dan" was fluent in Japanese and able to converse normally, which made us feel secure throughout.
Valuables are stored in a large locked container box.
We were also provided with drinking water and snacks.
Dan brought an underwater digital camera, and he uploaded the photos he took to Facebook that night.

During this honeymoon trip to Hawaii, I booked and experienced various optional tours in advance. However, honestly, many of the tours booked through travel agencies were disappointing.
Among them, the only tour I booked myself, the "Hanauma Bay Snorkeling," was extremely satisfying.
I truly realized what a veteran guide's tour should be like.
Even regarding tipping, which is not customary in Japan, I often hesitated in other tours and restaurants, but I was happy to tip Dan.
It was a truly moving tour.
I would love to request it again when I go to Hawaii.

今回のハワイ新婚旅行では、事前にさまざまなオプショナルツアーを予約し体験してきました。しかし、正直、旅行会社を通して予約したツアーはガッカリが多く残念なことも多々ありました。
そのような中、唯一、自分で予約したこの「ハナウマ湾シュノーケリング」は大満足でした。
本当にベテランガイドのツアーとはこういうものだと痛感したほどです。
日本では習慣のないチップにしても、他のツアーや飲食店では渋りたくなる場面がほとんどでしたが、ダンさんに対しては気持ちよくチップを渡せました。
本当に感動を与えてくれたツアーです。

We set sail in beautiful, clear weather, feeling great. At first, we were just gently swaying on the boat, but once we got out to sea, we were able to see sea turtles and got splashed by the waves (it wasn't much of a problem since we brought raincoats), and it was a lot of fun. Both my 3-year-old and 7-year-old enjoyed it together.

On the way back, the weather was so nice, with a pleasant breeze and the comfortable rocking of the boat, that I ended up dozing off. The kids, who don't understand English, desperately asked, "What are they talking about?" but when I translated it as, "If you study English, you'll understand," they seemed to enjoy it.

Many activities in Hawaii can be quite expensive, but this one was around $70 for four people, we got to see sea turtles, and we had a lovely sailing experience, so it was really great. I was torn between this and a submarine tour, but I made the right choice. I would definitely do it again!

快晴のお天気の中、気持ちよく出港。最初はただゆらゆらと乗っているだけでしたが、沖に出ると海ガメが見られたり、波しぶきで濡れたり(レインコート持参していたので然程問題なし)、とても楽しかったです。
3才も7歳も共に楽しめました。
帰りはあまりのよいお天気、気持ちいい風、船の心地よい揺れ加減で、居眠りしてしまうほど。
英語がわからない子供たちは必死で「何話してるの？」と聞いてきましたが、それも「英語をお勉強すればわかるようになるよ」と翻訳して話してやると楽しそうにしていました。
ハワイのアクティビティは高いものが多いのですが、これ四人でも70ドル程度、海ガメも見られ、心地よいセーリングも出来て、とっても良かったです。
潜水艦と迷ったのですが、正解でした。
また乗ります‼

I would highly recommend this activity. Driver was very helpful and informative. Everything was just as the company promised. We had a wonderful time.

We had a wonderful quick trip on the water with a crew that became fast friends. The skipper had all the right jokes and jabs to make you feel like you had sailed with him many times before. And the rest of the crew were as friendly as you could wish for. A cocktail cruise fit my bill perfectly. So tip big these guys deserve it!!!

We LOVED this day! Dan & his wife were great! They took very good care of us, even making sure that those of us with cameras got a chance to take pictures of the beautiful fish (and the 2 sea turtles we saw). They provided us with cold water and snacks after our swim, which were much appreciated. I love that Dan took many pictures of us all with his camera, and posted them to Facebook for us to see &/or download later. My husband and I are both over 60, and I think they were a little concerned whether we could handle the swimming. But they stayed nearby and checked often whether we were OK (we were!) Most of our group was Japanese, with My husband & I the only "anglos". Dan was amazing at switching from Japanese to English and back, making sure that none of us felt left out of the conversation. We would definitely recommend this activity for anyone!

I requested the most expensive one! It felt really good ^ ^ The staff member was very nice, and when I happily asked to be dropped into the sea at the end, they did it twice as a bonus! I would like to use this service again and recommend it to my friends.

1番高いのをリクエストしました！
本当に気持ち良かったです^ ^
係員の方もとても良い人でしたし、
最後に海に落としてくれるのも、大喜びしたらもう2回サービスしてくれました！
また利用するか友達に勧めたいと思います。

We participated with a 3 PM reservation, and we were the only two Japanese people there. The pre-briefing was in English only, but I somehow understood how to put on the life-saving equipment, so I had no worries at all. It felt great to be in a foreign country. Alcohol was available for purchase (beer, cocktails). We turned back just past Diamond Head and stopped off the coast of Honolulu to enjoy jumping off the boat before returning. I was a bit disappointed that I didn't think we would be able to jump in, but I had a wonderful time relaxing and taking it easy. The boat was larger than I expected, so I didn't feel any rocking. The price was reasonable and I highly recommend it (US$56 for two). The whole experience, from departure to return, took about 1 hour and 30 minutes. How about you all?

3時予約で参加しましたが、日本人は私たち二人だけでした。事前説明は英語オンリーでしたが救命道具の装着方法等なんとなく分かりましたし不安は全くありませんでした。外国に来てる感じでよかったです。アルコールは有料販売（ビール、カクテル）。ダイヤモンドヘッド沖過ぎたぐらいでＵターンで、ホノルル沖合で停止して船からの飛び込み楽しんでからの帰着となりました。飛び込みできると思ってなかったので少し残念でしたがゆっくり、のんびり時間過ごせ大満足です。船が想像以上に大きかったので揺れは気になりません。料金もリーズナブルでお勧めです（ＵＳ＄二人で５６＄）。出発から帰着までで、大体1時間30分。みなさんも、いかがですか。

I chose the 90m option. I was a bit anxious since I have a slight fear of heights, but I had so much fun! I didn't feel much fear of the height, and even though I was just strapped in with a simple belt and thought, "Is this really okay?" I felt stable and enjoyed the view from above the sea, with plenty of time to take lots of photos! The promised splash into the sea at just the right moment really boosted my excitement!

When I made the reservation, it said that the 90m flight lasts about 5 minutes, but it felt like we flew for much longer.

The photos were $30 for the data on an SD card, but I could check to make sure they turned out well before purchasing, which was reassuring. They took a lot of pictures and included the surrounding scenery, so even though it was a bit pricey, I thought it was worth it for the memories!

The tour lasted about 2 hours, so there was plenty of time to do other activities afterward, making it perfect for those who want to stay active!

I had a great time, so I highly recommend it!

高さ90mを選びました。
若干、高所恐怖症なのでたのしめるか不安でしたが、、、とっても楽しめました♪
高さの恐怖もそんなに感じず、簡単なベルトに縛られただけで、内心、大丈夫？って思ったけど、安定感があり、海上からの景色を楽しめ、沢山写真を撮る余裕もありました！
お約束の海ポチャも、絶妙なタイミングで更にテンションが上がりました！

予約の時に90mは5分位飛んでると書いてありましたが、もっと長く飛んでいた感じがしました。

写真は、データをSDカードに入れて30ドルでしたが、ちゃんと撮れているか確認してから購入出来るし安心です。
沢山撮ってくれたし、周りの景色も入れてくれたので、ちょっと高いけど思い出にと思ったら、買って損はないと思いました！

ツアー時間も2時間程度なので戻ってからでも充分行動出来るし、アクティブに動きたい人にもぴったりやと思います！

とっても楽しかったので、オススメです♪
