All Reviews for Watersports & Ocean Adventures

What a fantastic time my daughter and I had snuba diving, all three guys were just great and so informative, this was the best part of our trip.

I was nervous at first but the staff made it easy to get into the BOB. The divers were excellent and guided me at first and then sent me on my way. I've done other excursions and saw more fish and turtles on this trip. The pictures turned out very professional. I have told my daughter and her fiancé to definitely do this next month on their visit.

I participated in the 3:00 PM session. The other participants were all foreigners. The staff couldn't speak Japanese, but they showed us a paper with explanations in Japanese, which was reassuring. They also took photos during the parasailing, and you can buy a CD-R with those photos for $30! Speaking of dry riding, you can choose a ride that doesn't involve splashing into the sea, so since we were cold and our bodies were freezing, we opted for dry riding. The staff was very energetic and it was a lot of fun! The ride time was long, and we really enjoyed it!

15:00〜の回に参加しました。
参加者が私達以外外人さんでした。
スタッフの方は日本語NGでしたが、ちゃんと日本語の説明書いてある紙を見せてくれるので安心です。
パラセイル中の写真もとってもらえて、30ドルでその写真が入ったCD-R買うこともできます！
ドライライディングと言えば海にばっしゃんされないライドも選べるので寒くて体が冷え切っていた私達はドライライディングを選択しました。スタッフさんはとてもテンション高くて楽しかった！ライド時間も長くて楽しめました☆

My daughter and her husband went parasailing, and I rode as an observer. The boat captain and another person were both Caucasian, but they explained things in broken Japanese, which made me feel at ease. Next time, I want to try it myself.

娘夫婦がパラセイリングをして、私はオブザーバ（見学者）として乗りました。
ボートキャプテンともう一人は白人の方でしたが、片言に日本語で説明してくれていたので安心できました。
今度は自分が体験してみたいと思いました。

The best kick ass time in Hawaii, the divers were very attentive. Seeing the ocean from underneath is awesome for this non-swimmer.Younger kids could enjoy this. Bring cash for the pictures as credit cards not accepted.

The weather was great, and it felt wonderful to have a panoramic view of Waikiki and the ocean from a high vantage point. It was very enjoyable! I thought being pulled by the boat would be fast and scary, but it was actually a very graceful experience. It was the best. Although they don't speak Japanese, they handled boarding and disembarking smoothly.

However, I felt that adding $30 for photos on top of the price was a bit steep. A friend who used another parasailing tour mentioned that they were able to take pictures with their own camera, so I was a bit disappointed about that. (But after seeing other people's posts recommending the photos, I regret not buying them...)

天気がよく、高いところからワイキキと海を一望できてとても気持ちよく、楽しかったです！！
船で引っ張られるので、速くて怖いのかと思っていましたが、全然そんなことはなく、とても優雅な時間でした。最高です。日本語は通じませんが、乗り降りはスムーズに対応してくれます。
ただ、この値段で写真にプラス３０ドルというのはちょっとお高めかなと。
他のパラセイリングツアーを利用した知人は、自分の持っていったカメラで撮影することができたと言っていたので、その点はちょっと残念でした。（でも他の方の投稿を見ると写真もおすすめと書いてあるので、買えばよかったなと後悔してます...）

My partner and I did the 1200ft, we are so happy we choose the longer one because the couple that went before us only did a short one and wished they spent a bit more money for the longer one. We had the best time! Everyone we dealt with (driver to location, boat crew etc) were all lovely and made sure we had a good time. We def recommend to everyone and we would do it again :)

On my first trip to Hawaii, I chose parasailing to experience something truly Hawaiian. He has a fear of heights, and I'm not a big fan either, so we initially talked about going for 45 meters, but we decided to challenge ourselves and go for 90 meters instead.

We were both nervous before flying... At that time, there were only us and a foreign couple, and without any discussion, we were the first to take off. Before flying, we were offered to take photos for $30, with an explanation that they would give us an SD card. Of course, we agreed.

While we were flying, we were both scared and kept laughing, and maybe because of that, we were swung around quite a bit, and towards the end, there was an unexpected dip into the water that we hadn't requested. The foreign couple on the boat seemed to be flying normally, and they were kissing multiple times, looking quite relaxed. The girl managed to shake her head to refuse the dip just before she was about to fall, so she didn't end up in the water.

Regarding the photos, both of us are DSLR users, so we were a bit disappointed. It was understandable since both the boat and we were shaking, but I thought the full auto setting could have been a bit better... It felt like there were very few decent shots. Maybe we were just being tossed around too much.

All in all, despite being scared, I think we had a great time. Perhaps because there were only two couples, our time in the air was really long!

初めてのハワイで、ハワイらしいことをしようとパラセーリングを選びました。
彼は高所恐怖症で、私もそこまで好きでは無いので最初は45Ｍにしようと話していましたが、せっかくなので90Ｍでチャレンジしてきました。
飛ぶ前から二人とも緊張・・・
私たちと外国人カップルしかそのときはおらず、有無を言わさず最初に私たちが飛ばされました。
飛ぶ前には写真を30ドルで撮って、ＳＤプレゼントと説明ありました。
もちろんお願いしました。
飛んでいるときは二人ともビビってずっと笑っていて、そのせいか、楽しんでいると思われてぐわんぐわん振り回されたり、最後のほうにはお願いしていない海ボチャもありました。
ボートが一緒だった外国人カップルは普通に飛んでいるだけで、外国人カップルは何回もキスして余裕そうでした。
海ボチャも彼女が落ちる寸前に首を振って拒否していたのでギリギリで水には入っていませんでした。
写真については私も彼も一眼レフユーザーということもあり、すこしがっかりしました。
ボートも私たちも揺れているからしょうがないのですが、フルオートにしては少し下手では・・・と思ってしまったり。
まともに写っていうのが少ないように感じました。
私たちが揺らされすぎだったのかもしれませんが。

なんだかんだでビビりながらもすごく楽しめたと思います。
2組しかいなかったせいか、滞空時間もすごく長かったです！

Since I saw it during a trip to Hawaii, I've always wanted to try parasailing. This time, the whole family decided to challenge the 150m flight time. My aunt, who was saying how scary it was, ended up satisfied, thinking that at 90m, with just 3 minutes, she wouldn't have had the chance to enjoy the view and would have to come down scared.

I felt so good that while being pulled up in the air, I arched my back to check the horizon!

By chance, I got to try it a second time, and when I raised my hand first, my mother seemed to want to fly too and was feeling regretful. I highly recommend the 150m!

以前ハワイに行った時に見かけて以来、一度体験してみたかったパラセーリング。
今度こそは！と家族全員、滞空時間が長い150mにチャレンジ。
怖い怖い！と言っていた叔母も、90mだと3分だから逆に怖いまま、景色を見る余裕なく降りるしかなかったかもね....と満足。
私は気持ち良すぎて、空の上から釣られながら、背中をそらせ地平線を確認してしまいました！

そして、偶然にも二度チャレンジ出来ることになって、一番に手をあげたら、母も飛びたかったみたいで、悔しがってました(^^;;
150mがオススメです！

I'll keep it short and sweet. Our guide Keala was great. Knowledgeable and easygoing. It was very windy day so we were unable to actually kayak as much as we might have usually which was a bit of a disappointment. I felt the tour should have put off/postponed the outgoing or at least attempted to somehow offer compensation for the shortened outing. But my only real beef was with the knuckleheads who 'helped' me on my landing upon return. They had me get out of the kayak too early in deep water. A large wave turned my kayak over, it washed back at me and I had to jump over it as it washed back, and only my agility saved my knees/legs! They probably didn't even see this happen. That being said, on a normal not so windly day, this would be a great tour.

The weather was great, and when we floated up, it was truly breathtaking! The beach and the view were absolutely stunning! It was a floating experience where we could feel the pleasant Hawaiian breeze all over our bodies. The three of us floating in the sky exchanged joyful smiles! When we fell into the sea, we were surprised and laughed out loud! Thank you for the wonderful memories.

天気良く^ ^フワッと上昇したときは圧巻でビーチ＆ヘッドも、まさに絶景！心地よいハワイの風を全身で感じながらの浮遊体験でした。空に浮く3人は顔を見合わせ快感スマイル^ ^‼ 海に落とされたときはドヒャヒャッ!とビックリ。楽しい思い出ありがとうございます。

I danced together with my 3rd-grade daughter and my 77-year-old grandmother. The ascent (probably about 50 meters?) was super fun, but I was scared at 120 meters. My daughter said she was scared too, but my grandmother was "so much fun!!" and was very happy. For those with a fear of heights, the lower ones might be more enjoyable.

I was told the photos would cost $30, and there was a sign on the boat saying "tips are not included..." so when I handed over the money including a tip, they returned the change saying, "You don't need to tip."

The staff were foreigners and didn't understand much Japanese, but they were very kind, which was great.

小学3年の娘と77歳のおばあちゃんと3人一緒に舞いました。
上がっていく過程の（おそらく50メートルくらい？）は超楽しかったですが、120メートルは私は怖かったです。
娘も怖かったと言ってますが、おばあちゃんは「最高に楽しい！！」と大喜びでした。
高所恐怖症の人は、低めの方が楽しいかもしれません。
写真を頼んで30ドルと言われ、ボートに「チップは含まれておりません。。。」という紙が貼ってあったので、チップ込みでお金を渡したら、「チップは要らないです」とおつりを返してくれました。

スタッフさんは外国人の方で日本語はあまり通じなかったけど、とても親切で、良かったです。

My husband is quite large, so at first, he splashed around in the water without flying at all, and when he returned, he just plunged back into the water. I thought I wouldn't get wet, but I ended up soaked from head to toe. However, the view of the sky is amazing.

主人が大柄なので始め水につかったまま全然飛ばす、戻るときも水にドボン。
濡れないかと思っていましたが、頭からビチョビチョになってしまいました。
でも、空の景色は最高です。

We flew with two adults and one child.
Even though it was 120 meters, it felt very high.
The child got motion sickness before flying, so it might be better to take motion sickness medication before participating.

大人２人＋子供１人で飛びました。
120Mとはいえ、とても高く感じました。
子供は飛ぶ前に酔ってしまったので、酔い止めを飲んでの参加のほうがいいかもしれません。

It was a wonderful experience, like flying in the sky.
You can walk there from Hilton.
I flew once with my two young children and their father.

空を飛んでいるような素晴らしい経験でした。
ヒルトンからなら歩いて行けます。
小学校低学年子供二人と父親と三人で一度に飛びました。

Wow! Had the time of our lives up there in the air! Went with my mum (63) and my kids (8 and 5). The crew at Hawaiian Parasail were extremely professional and really made sure we had a great time. The photos they took while we were in the air were amazing. Highly recommend buying the memory card of your parasail. I can't wait to come back to Hawaii and have another parasail with Hawaiian Parasail. Pick up and drop off at hotel was fantastic. Our driver pointed out lots of good places to eat on the way there which was great. We learnt a lot about where to go and what to do on our holiday just on the trip there and back. Can't recommend highly enough!

To make it in time for the meeting, we had our optional tour before parasailing shortened, but we ended up waiting about an hour from the meeting time for this optional tour. Other participants arrived normally about 30 minutes after the meeting time, and we couldn't understand why we were given such an early meeting time.

The 180-meter parasailing experience lasted about 10 minutes in the air, and the view was amazing; we even saw a rainbow, which was moving. However, after waiting so long and for this price, it ended up being just 20 minutes total... The instructors were all foreigners and were quite pushy about tips. Considering everything, I don't think I would want to do this again.

集合時間に間に合わせるるため、パラセーリングの前のオプションツアーの時間を巻いてもらったのに、こちらのオプショナルツアーは集合時間から約1時間待たされました。
他の参加者はふつうに集合時間から30分後にぞくぞく来て、自分達だけなぜこんなにはやい時間に集合時間を指定されるのかわかりませんでした。
180メートルのパラセーリングの内容は10分ぐらい空中に浮いて、景色も最高で虹も見れて感動でしたが
こんなに待ってこの値段で計20分で終わり。。。
インストラクターは外人のみでチップの煽りが激しいです。
トータルで考えてもうやりたいとは思いません。

Wow! what an entertainer Harry was & related so well to us being Aussies & accustomed to the surfing fraternity. We're recently retired & I was on crutches after an operation & nothing was too much trouble. He made special trip in between activities to come & pick me up from Waimea Falls to save me walking. We couldn't praise him enough. Go Harry!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thank you for a wonderful insight into life on the North Shore of Oahu.

I participated in a tour that included a kayaking experience this time, as Kailua Beach was wonderful before. The beach was as beautiful as ever, and with the wind, the kites were flying around. Since we had a guide, we received a briefing and then headed out to sea!

On the way there, we struggled against the wind, trying to synchronize our paddling. The guide, who was fluent in Japanese, explained various things when we arrived at the small island and even took photos for us, which was really nice. We also received snacks and water and enjoyed a little bit of snorkeling.

On the way back, we quickly arrived with the tailwind. The pizza for lunch was as delicious as rumored! I ended up going back the next day for the beach and the pizza. I rated it ★4 because I wished the return time had been a bit later. The staff was friendly, and I highly recommend it.

以前カイルアビーチがすばらしかったので、今回はカヤック体験を盛り込んだツアーに参加しました。
ビーチは相変わらずの美しさ、風があったのでシーカイトがビュンビュンと飛んでました。ガイドつきにしたのでレクチャーを受けいざ海へ！！
行きは風に流され四苦八苦しながら息を合わせて進みます。日本語が堪能なガイドさんで小島に到着してから色々説明してもらったり、写真撮ってくれたりでとっても良かったです。おやつとお水ももらってシュノーケリング（ほんのちょっと）も楽しみました。
帰りは追い風であっという間に到着。
ランチのピザは評判通りのおいしさ!　ビーチとピザのために翌日また行ってしまいました。
もうちょっと帰りの時間が遅いと良かったなぁと思ったので★4つにしました。
スタッフも親切でおすすめです。

I was able to participate with my 6-year-old daughter. Before we started, she was a bit scared and on the verge of tears, but once we took off, she really enjoyed it. Also, I had to decline the photo service because I didn't have any cash, but later I found out that card payment was possible, and I regretted it...

6歳の娘と参加できました。やる前になってビビって半ベソ状態でしたが、いざテイクオフしたら、楽しんでいましたよ。
あと、写真のサービスを手持ち金がなくて断ってしまったのですが、あとでカード決済可能とわかり、後悔…。

My children, aged 12 and 8, participated in private surfing lessons. Even without being able to speak English, they were able to enjoy the lessons and had a great time surfing. It was their first time surfing, but the waves in Waikiki are definitely recommended for beginners! They were able to ride the waves right away! Thanks to this, we were very satisfied! My kids have come to love surfing!

子ども、12歳と8歳とプライベートサーフィンレッスンに参加してきました。英会話できなくても、レッスン受けられる、楽しくサーフィンレッスン受けられ、子供達は、
サーフィン初めてでしたが、ワイキキの、波は初心者には、絶対オススメです！すぐに波乗りできました！
おかげで、大満足！子供達は、サーフィン大好きに、なりました！

It was our 2nd time parasailing with this company, both times were great!

My wife and I participated in the 150m experience. It was our first time, and I was excited while my wife was nervous, but once we took off, my wife was overjoyed and thrilled, while I ended up feeling a bit scared (laughs). I was holding a video camera in one hand (just an excuse). But even though I was scared, it felt amazing and exhilarating. I thought we would definitely fall into the sea at the end, but it seems like you can choose not to get wet. However, since it's just your feet, I recommend falling into the sea at least once. Thanks to another participant, my wife was lucky enough to ride again (I'm envious). Next time, I want to participate for the longest duration!

妻と二人で150mに参加しました。二人とも初体験で私はワクワク、妻はドキドキでしたが、
いざ飛んでみると妻はとても大喜びで大興奮、私は逆にちっとビビってしまいました（笑）。
私は片手にビデオを持ちながらだったので（言い訳）。でもビビっていてもとても気持ちよくて壮快でした。
終了時は必ず海に落ちるものだと思っていましたが、選択ができるみたいで濡れずに済ますことも可能です。でも足だけなので一度海に落ちる方をお勧めします。
お一人参加の方のおかげで妻はもう一度乗ることができてラッキーでした（うらやましい）。
次回は最長に参加したいです！

Good Time. Had a wonderful day. The tour guide was friendly and provided a lot of interesting facts and trivia about Oahu on the drive up, as well as the trip back. Once at the North Shore the choice activities and the loosely organized agenda made for an enjoyable day. Would definitely recommend. Great value.

The lively crew really got the party going! There was even a moment where we were splashed into the sea, which was so much fun!! We also got to see a whale spouting water!!

ノリノリのクルーに盛り上げてもらいました！
途中で海に落とされる演出もあり、とても楽しかったです！！
クジラが潮を吹いているところも見えました！！

On the day of the event, I was worried it might be canceled due to the strong winds, but the pickup car arrived on time, which was a relief. The driver was cheerful and spoke to us in a friendly manner, even though we didn't speak much English.

Regarding the photos, there was a clear explanation in English about the price ($30) and that they would be provided on an SD card. They only took pictures of the group that requested them, and it seems we checked the SD card and made the payment after returning to the port. We brought our own waterproof camera, so we didn't request their service.

By chance, we were with a pair of Japanese women, so we were lucky to be able to take turns holding each other's cameras while flying. The boat ride felt like a thrilling attraction at high speed, which was quite fun! The parasailing was also amazing! Additionally, I forgot to take motion sickness medication, but I didn't feel nauseous at all.

当日は風が強かったので中止にならないか不安でしたが、迎えの車が時間通りに来てくれてひと安心。
送迎ドライバーは明るい方で、英語があまりできない私たちにも気さくに話しかけてくれました。
写真については、値段($30)やSDカードで渡すことなど、英語ですが説明がきちんとあり、お願いしたグループだけ撮って、港に戻ってからSDカードのチェックや支払いをしていたようです。
私たちは防水カメラを持参したのでお願いしませんでした。
偶然、日本人女性2人組と一緒だったのでお互い飛ぶときにカメラを預けて撮りあいっこできたのでラッキーでした。
ボートは猛スピードでアトラクションみたいでした。
これが結構おもしろかった！
パラセイリングも最高でした！
あと、酔い止め飲み忘れたけど酔いませんでした。

Had a lot of fun on this ride. The staff was funny and the experience was incomparable.

We were looking for a tour to see the North Shore but have the freedom to do what we want to do....we couldn't have picked a better tour. This is the perfect tour for people looking for freedom to do/go where they want. We had Sam as our tour guide, a native from Hawaii. He was informative and very the perfect style of guide for this tour. Knew what he was talking about, laid back but still detail oriented enough to handle everyone's activities and where they were. We went there the day of the Volcom Pipe Pro at the Pipeline. We rented bikes at the North Shore Surf Shop (an included activity with the tour - no extra charge) and that allowed us to go freely around. We rode up to the surf competition to watch live. The nice part was with the bikes, you were stuck in one spot the whole time. Watched the competition, then rode down the coast to Sharks Cove and Waimea Bay. It was great to have no schedule or "planned activities" when we got there. We had 3 hours to do what we want. Some wanted nothing to do with the surf competition and they could do what they want. Everyone had their own agenda and this tour worked great with it. (For a quick bite to eat, hit up Pupukea Grill. Its a food truck in Sharks Cove with a heavenly flatbread.) Met back next to Sharks Cove for the bus and rode to Haleiwa for the afternoon. Again, free time through the town to experience the city itself or do water activities at Surf N Sea. We wanted to experience the town, so we went into the surf shops, stores and walked around the town itself. (For a great sandwich, hit up Waialua Bakery and Juice Bar next to the grocery store...phenomenal.) For being a smaller town, Haleiwa is a very cool town to experience. After the town, we were to a beach to view the sea turtles that come on shore. It was amazing to see the turtles that close.

Booking an activity online can be a pain, but with this site it was not. The pick up and drop off service is excellent
Surf Instructors was awesome in preparing me and the rest of us newbies on what not to do and what to be prepared for The instructor I had was pateint and very knowledgable in surfing I caught almost every wave with ease. I had fun and would surf again.
