All Reviews for Watersports & Ocean Adventures

All the crew were extremely friendly and helpful. Such a relaxing and enjoyable experience. Would definitely go again and have already recommended it to a few friends.

It was my first time parasailing. Although it was high, it felt unreal, so my husband, who has a fear of heights and isn't great with the ocean, enjoyed it too! Towards the end, you do get dropped into the sea (but it's not dangerous, just a little wet!).

It's better to wear a swimsuit underneath, but if you're wearing a bikini, it might be a bit revealing, so shorts might be a better option.

We went in groups of 2 to 3 people. The group of four was split into two teams.

Sunglasses, hats, and cameras can be taken up in the air at your own risk! I’m a bit of a scaredy-cat, so I left everything on the boat (laughs). My husband and I commented on how brave the girl with the GoPro was.

Tips are not included, so we gave some to the captain when we got off the boat. Also, they ask if you want to take photos with a DSLR on the boat. We had our pictures taken! After getting off the boat, we paid $40. You can pay in cash or by card. Since it was our honeymoon, we were happy to have those photos! We also received an SD card.

However, there were about two girls on the same boat who looked like they were struggling with seasickness. If you're prone to getting seasick, it might be a good idea to have some medication on hand. My husband and I didn't feel sick at all.

Overall, I was very satisfied. I highly recommend it!

初めてやったパラセーリング。高さはあるけど非現実的なので、高所恐怖症？で海苦手な夫も楽しんでました！最後の方で海にも落とされるので、(危なくはないので大丈夫ですちょっと濡れます！)
下は水着は着てた方がいいけど、下がビキニとかだとちょっと見え方が危ない？ので短パンとか履いたほうがいいかも。
2人〜3人1組で行いました。4人グループのところは2組に分かれていました。
サングラス、帽子、カメラ類は自己責任で空中に持って行ってもOK！私はビビリなので怖くて船に全部置いていきました(笑)
GoProを持って行ってた女の子度胸あるなぁと夫と話していました。
チップは含まれていないので、ツアーが終わって船を降りるときに船長に渡しました。
それから、船の上で一眼レフで写真撮るかどうか聞かれます。私たちは写真撮ってもらいました！船降りてから40ドル払います。現金でもカードでもいけました。新婚旅行だったので撮ってもらえて満足！SDカードももらえました。
ただ同じ船に乗っていた女の子2人くらいは船酔いしていて辛そうでした。酔いやすいなら酔い止めはあったほうが安心かも。私と夫は全く酔いませんでした。
総じて大満足です。オススメします！

This is my second time on board since 2017. The weather was nice, and I was able to spend a wonderful time feeling great. Although I didn't see any honu, the captain found a whale for us, and we were able to see it spouting water and showing its tail.

2017年以来の２度目の乗船。
天気も良く、気持ちよく最高の時間を過ごすことが出来ました。
ホヌは見れませんでしたが、船長がクジラを見つけて
くれて、クジラが潮を吹き、尾びれを出している所まで見れました。

It was my first experience, and it was more fun than I imagined. We were blessed with good weather, and the view of the blue sea and sky, along with the scenery from Waikiki and Diamond Head, was amazing!

初めての体験でしたが想像以上に楽しかった。天気にも恵まれ青い海と空、ワイキキとダイヤモンドヘッドの沖から見る景色は最高！

I participated with my 10-year-old child and my mother in her 70s. Just to be safe, we borrowed life jackets on-site. It really felt like we were surfing, and the waves and wind were refreshing; we had an amazing time! I highly recommend it.

10歳の子供と70代の母と一緒に参加しました。念の為ライフジャケットは現地で借りました。
本当にサーフィンをしているようで、波と風が気持ちよく、最高に楽しみました！
おすすめです。

I didn't expect to catch a marlin at all, so I had no expectations from the start, but surprisingly, I caught a marlin (40 kg) just an hour and a half in! After that, I also caught a huge mahi-mahi (50 kg)! The other two also caught three mahi-mahi, so we ended up with a total of five fish from our trolling trip! I was feeling seasick and down until the bites started, but it turned into the best memory! Thank you so much!

どうせカジキは絶対無理と思って最初から期待はしてなかったのですが、まさかの開始1時間半でカジキ（40キロ）釣りました！その後もマヒマヒ特大（50キロ）釣れました！他の2人もマヒマヒ3匹で
3人のトローリングで計5匹釣れました！
船酔いで当たりが来るまではずっとダウンしてましたが、最高の思い出になりました！
本当にありがとうございました！

I went the day before the Honolulu Marathon. A few years ago, it was canceled due to strong winds, so I had high expectations, and it exceeded them! There were two of us participating, but it would be fine with three as well. The scenery is extraordinary!

ホノルルマラソン前日に行って来ました。
数年前は強風で中止になった分、期待大きかったのにそれを上回る充実感です！
私達は2人参加でしたが3人でも大丈夫です。
非日常の景色ですよ〜

I was hesitant about participating, but after seeing others flying from the beach, I decided to join and registered on the morning of the event. I was able to participate even alone. My Japanese was limited to a few words, but I understood the gist through gestures. I thought it would take about three hours, but since there were only four of us, it finished in about an hour after check-in. I walked back to Waikiki Beach, which took about 20 minutes. The view was great, and I'm glad I took the plunge and participated.

参加ヲさん迷っていましたが、ビーチから飛んで居るのを見て参加を決めたので当日の朝の申し込みです。ひとりでも参加出来ました。日本語は単語程度でしたが身振り手振りでだいたいわかりました。3時間くらいかかるのかと思っていましたが4人だけだったためかチェックインしてから1時間くらいで終わりました。ワイキキビーチまで20分くらい歩いて帰りました。眺めも良く思いきって参加して良かったです。

A noticeable small bus welcomed us at the meeting point. There were a total of 17 tour participants, with only 3 Japanese, and all explanations were in English. There was a self-introduction time, so we needed to briefly introduce ourselves in English, mentioning where we were from, how many times we had been to Hawaii, and what we were looking forward to on this tour.

Now, although it has been corrected, I was worried because the tour course I signed up for was supposed to go directly from Honolulu to Haleiwa Town, but it deviated from the course midway. We switched from Freeway H1 to H3, passed through Kaneohe on the east coast, and headed north along the coastline. After passing the famous filming location Kualoa Ranch, we took a restroom break at Tropical Farms. Here, we could sample macadamia nuts and had the experience of cracking the nuts out of their shells with a stone. After a break at a fruit stand, we went to Sunset Beach. It was November, and surfers were challenging the high waves.

Then, the morning activities began, and we chose to take a walk at Waimea Falls Park. The entrance fee to the park was included in the tour price, and the guide paid for it. The course to the waterfall was rich in nature and very relaxing. The water volume of the waterfall was abundant due to the rainy season, which was enjoyable, but during the dry season, the water volume is low, so it's something to be cautious about depending on the date of your visit. We could swim near the waterfall, but it was murky, so we didn't swim. Since we had some time before the meeting time, we had lunch there.

After that, we moved to Haleiwa Town, and in the afternoon activity, we tried SUP (stand-up paddleboarding). The location was behind a shop called Surf & Sea, and life jackets were available at no extra charge. The tour guide provided instruction, and while it was easy to get on the board, standing up required some skill. We could also paddle while sitting on the board, which was enjoyable, and I was thrilled to encounter a sea turtle up close.

Although I was worried because the tour was in a language I didn't understand, I was helped by a friendly guide and friendly tour companions.

目立つ小さなバスが集合場所まで出迎えてくれました。
ツアー客は総勢17人で、その中で日本人は3人だけ、全て英語での説明となります。
自己紹介タイムがあるので、どこから来たのか、ハワイは何回目か、このツアーに期待しているものなど簡単に英語で紹介する必要があります。
さて、現在は訂正されていますが、申し込んだ時のツアーコースはホノルルからハイレワタウンへ直行だったのが途中からコースから外れていたので心配しました。フリーウェイH1から途中H3に移り、東海岸のカネオヘを通過し海岸線を北上。映画のロケ地で有名なクアロア・ランチを通過後、トロピカルファームでトイレ休憩しました。ここではアカデミアナッツの試食ができ、また殻から石でナッツを取り出して食べる体験ができました。その後、フルーツスタンドで休憩した後、サンセットビーチに行きました。行ったのは11月で、サーファー達が高い波に挑戦していました。その後、午前のアクティビティが始まり、私達はワイメア滝公園での散歩を選択しました。公園へは入場料はツァー料に含まれ、ガイドが払ってくれました。滝までのコースは自然が豊かでのんびりと楽しむことができました。滝の水量は雨季だったので豊富で楽しめましたが、乾季は水量が少ないので行く日程によっては注意が必要です。滝壺近くで泳ぐこともできましたが、濁っていたので泳ぎませんでした。集合時間まで時間があったのでここでランチを済ませました。その後、ハレイワタウンに移動し、午後のアクティビティではSUP(スタンドアップパドル)に挑戦しました。場所はサーフ&シーという店の裏で、ライフジャケットは追加料金なしで利用できました。指導はツァーガイドが行い、簡単にボードに乗ることはできましたが、立ち上がるにはコツが要ります。ボードの上に座ったまま漕ぐこともできるので十分楽しめましたし、至近距離でウミガメに遭遇したのに感動しました。なお、貴重品ボックスと荷物を入れるロッカーは簡易なものだったので盗難を心配しましたが、特に問題ありませんでした。集合時間になったらバスに乗り、途中でトイレ休憩後、ホノルルまで送ってくれました。
日本語が通じないツアーだったので心配しましたが、親しみあるガイドと友好的なツアー仲間に助けられました。

Renting a wetsuit was a good decision for warmth and injury prevention. I swam for about an hour from one end of the bay to the other at the guide's pace, which was quite tiring, and I experienced seasickness. It was tough for seniors, so I wished we could have taken a break along the way.

ウェットスーツは防寒とケガ防止のためにレンタルしてよかったです。
約1時間、湾の端から端までガイドのペースで泳ぎ続けたのでかなり疲れ、波酔いを経験しました。
シニアには辛いので途中、休憩させて欲しかった。

I arrived at the meeting point by 7:15 for the 7:30 check-in, but no staff appeared even by 7:30. They finally showed up at 7:52. After that, with only two staff members, they began preparing the boat, causing us to depart a few minutes later than planned. While I don't mind the delay, I felt a bit anxious waiting since no one was there at the scheduled meeting time.

We enjoyed a view of Waikiki Beach from the sea. After a while, we started fishing about 300-400 meters from Diamond Head. It was fun to catch various fish easily. My mother tangled her line and caused some trouble for the staff, but they were very kind and helpful. We also had the good fortune of seeing wild dolphins swimming nearby, which was a great experience.

It was nice that there were only eight participants, allowing the staff to keep an eye on everyone. However, it was disappointing that there was no barbecue on board for the fish we caught.

朝7:30チェックインとのことで集合場所に7:15迄に行ったが7:30になってもスタッフ現れず。7:52になってようやく現れた。それから2人だけのスタッフで船内の準備など始め出発は予定より数分遅れた。出発遅れるのは気にしないが予定の集合時間に誰もいなかった為待っている間は少し不安だった。
ワイキキ海岸沿い一帯を海から眺望。しばらくしてダイヤモンドヘッドから300-400メートルほど離れた場所を周り釣りスタート。簡単に色々な魚が釣れて楽しかった。母親が糸を絡ませたり色々スタッフに面倒をかけてしまったが親切に対応してくれた。野生のイルカが泳いでいるのもたまたま近くで見ることができ良い経験だった。
参加者8名とスタッフの目が行き届く人数でよかった。
詳細にある釣った魚を船内でバーベキューがなかったのは残念だった。

Sandbar?
It was mainly snorkeling and stand-up paddleboarding.
When I went in March, it was a sandbar, but this time it was disappointing. I wonder if it's like this during the rainy season.
However, the performance on the boat was lively.
Snorkeling and stand-up paddleboarding were really fun.
It wasn't a course to see the honu (sea turtles).

サンドバー？
シュノーケーリングとサップが中心でした。
3月に行った時はサンドバーでしたが
今回は残念でした。雨季だとこうなのかなー
でもボートの中の演奏はノリノリ
シュノーケーリングやサップはすごく楽しかったです。
ホヌをみるコースではありませんでした。

It was less shaky than I expected, and I felt like I was floating in the sky. The view was great and it felt wonderful. It was a good experience.

思っていたよりも揺れずふわふわーっと空を浮いている感覚でした。
景色もよく気持ちよかったです。
いい経験になりました。

I took motion sickness medication in advance after reading reviews, but I was still seasick and couldn't enjoy it fully, which was disappointing. It's safer for those who are prone to motion sickness to avoid it. After I got seasick, the staff kindly gave me water and ginger candy, which was very nice of them.

Another person who joined us didn't get seasick at all and had a great time. We were the only Japanese people there, and since we didn't understand any English, I was anxious, but it turned out to be totally fine. I gave a $20 tip.

口コミをみてあらかじめ酔い止めを飲んでいましたが船酔いして十分楽しめなかったのが残念でした。普段から酔いやすい人はしないほうが無難です。船酔いした後、スタッフさんが水と生姜飴をくれてとても優しかったです。
一緒に参加したもう1人は酔わなかったのでとても楽しんでいました。
日本人は私達だけで、英語も全く分からなかったので不安でしたが全然大丈夫でした。
チップ20$渡しました。

My family and I had a great time on this trip! From the musicians/staffs to the many activities, everything was 10/10. On top of it all they sang happy birthday to my son 🥹 I could write an essay on how stress-free, relaxing and just FUN this experience is. THANK YOU AND WE WILL COME AGAIN 🫶🏼

The music was outstanding and really made for a fun vibe. I loved the activities they provided, butt being able to only kayak or SUP board I. Such a small area felt pretty CT uneventful. Also, snorkeling was okay, but to be encouraged to just stay near the staff member feeding the fish felt less than what I was expecting.

Since it was early in the morning, there were no other groups besides ours, so it felt like we had the place to ourselves. At first, I was a bit scared, but once I got used to it, I was able to enjoy the stunning views. We took a lot of photos, and it became a wonderful memory.

朝一だったからか私たちグループ以外いなかったので貸し切り状態でした。
最初こそ怖さがあったものの慣れてしまえば絶景を楽しめました。
写真もたくさん撮って頂き良い思い出になりました。

We had an absolutely AMAZING time!!! I did things with my kids that I never thought I would do. I will never forget it. A once in a lifetime experience - brilliant!!

I was able to snorkel safely. Since I went first thing in the morning, it was easy to secure a good spot. The security was thorough, allowing me to enjoy snorkeling without any worries.

シュノーケルを安全にできました。
朝1番で行ったので、場所取りもスムーズでした。
セキュリティも万全で、心置きなくシュノーケルを楽しめました。

It was quite a windy day, and we set off with another group (there were actually three groups since we were flying in a 2:1 ratio with four people).

We were going pretty fast out to the ocean! While that was great, I, who am not good with the roller coaster-like feeling of floating, was hanging on for dear life...

We were the last to fly, and it was quite high... plus, the support relied almost entirely on my arm strength (grip strength), so I thought if I ran out of energy, it would be over!! I was a bit nervous, haha.

The view of Waikiki from above was beautiful, and the ocean looked different from the beach, a vibrant blue, making me feel like it’s something everyone should try at least once.

The cheerful music and the friendly crew encouraged us, who were scared, saying "You can do it!" which made it fun. On the way back, we encountered a pod of dolphins and got to see them for a bit!

けっこう風がある日で、わたしたちともう1組の2組(4人組で2：1で飛ぶとのことだったので実際には3組)で出発しました。
沖まで出るのに結構なスピード！はいいんですが、ジェットコースター的浮遊感がにがてなわたしはこわいよ～～！！！！としがみついていました…
わたしたちは最終で飛んだんですが、結構たかい……うえに、支えがほぼ自分の腕力(握力)にかかってくるので力尽きたら終わる！！と思いながらいました…笑
上から見るワイキキの町はとてもきれいで、海もビーチの方とは違って青々としていて1回はやってみるものだなと感じました。
陽気な音楽と気のいいクルーさんたちで怖がる我々をがんばれ～～と励ましてくれて楽しかったです、あとは帰りにイルカの群れに遭遇してちょっと見させてもらえました！

I've been to Hawaii many times and have done various activities, but this was the most fun I've ever had. The waves were calm, so I didn't feel seasick at all.

何度もハワイに来て、色々遊んでいますが、これが最高に楽しかったです。
波も穏やかだったので酔いもなかったです。

I recommend parasailing at 150 meters; it's completely different. I didn't drive the jet ski, so it was just ordinary. I also happened to encounter dolphins and turtles.

パラセーリングは150mがおすすめ
全然違います。
ジェットスキーは私は運転しなかったので、普通でした。イルカとカメにもたまたま出会えました。

Everything was wonderful. I enjoyed it for longer than I expected. I was relieved that I didn't get too soaked during the final landing (though I wouldn't have minded getting completely wet...). The view of Diamond Head from about 150 meters up was amazing.

全てが気持ちよかったです。思ったより長い時間楽しませてもらいました。最後の着水もそんなにずぶぬれにならないので安心しました。（ガッツリ濡れてもよかったのですが、、、）
上空約150ｍから眺めるダイヤモンドヘッドは最高でした。

I had an amazing experience in Hawaii for the first time! The captain was very skilled at driving the boat, and it was truly the best! At the same time, we took a lot of photos, and when I saw the results, they looked professional! I was worried about getting seasick, but it was so much fun that I didn't feel sick at all. There were many airplanes flying around, and we could take pictures that looked like we were flying alongside them. I want to go again!

はじめてのハワイで、体験しました！船長さんがとても運転が上手で、本当に最高でした！同時に写真も沢山撮ってもらい、仕上がりを見たら、プロみたいでした！船酔いを心配したけど、楽しくて楽しくて、全く酔いませんでした。飛行機も沢山飛んでいて、飛行機と一緒に飛んでいるような写真が撮れます。また、行きたいです！

I considered another tour, but it was fully booked, so I chose this one, and my 4-year-old son had a great time. I read in other reviews that "it was cold on the boat," so I brought fleece jackets for the kids, but the temperature was comfortable enough for short sleeves. The tide was not out, so there was no sandy beach, but with the life jackets provided, both my 4-year-old son and 8-year-old daughter enjoyed themselves. The staff also supported us with kayaking, and the kids had fun.

別のツアーを検討しましたが満員でこちらのツアーにしましたが、４歳の息子も楽しめました。他の方の体験談に「船内が寒かった」とあったので、子供たちのフリースなども持参しましたが半袖で大丈夫な気温で過ごしやすかったです。潮は引いておらず、砂浜は出現していませんでしたが、渡されたライフジャケットがあれば４歳の息子も８歳の娘も楽しんでいました。カヤックなどもスタッフがサポートしてくれて子供達も楽しめました。

We had an amazing time on this trip. Would definitely do it again!

As the photos show, the water was quite deep, which was quite different from what I had imagined, but because of that, we were able to see a lot of fish while snorkeling, and the kids were thrilled!

Also, we had a lot of fun doing activities like stand-up paddleboarding and canoeing in an area that is usually surrounded by sandy beaches, but this time we were completely surrounded by the sea! The weather was great too!

However, it was a bit tough for my 70-year-old parent. The water was too deep for them to get off the boat... By the way, the water level was just about where adults could finally touch the bottom, while the kids were completely submerged up to their heads. A small child next to us was scared the whole time because the water was too deep.

On this day, there were many foreigners, and they were all guided to the window seats first. Japanese guests were served later. Families with children were seated by the window, but adult groups were placed at tables in the center. I felt a bit of a difference in treatment between foreigners and Japanese guests. I guess it's just how things are in America.

Also, the foreign staff were all very friendly and cheerful! In comparison, the Japanese staff were a bit lacking in smiles, which was a bit disappointing.

However, it was an experience that you can't easily have elsewhere! We enjoyed it thoroughly. Thank you!

写真の通り、水はかなり深く、想像とはだいぶかけ離れていましたが、その分シュノーケリングでお魚がたくさん見れて、子供は大喜び！
あとは普段なら砂浜が見えるとこで行うサップやカヌーなども全方位海に囲まれた状態でできたこともすごく楽しかったです！
天気もよかったですし！
ただ70才の親にはちょっときつかった。あまりに深すぎて船から降りることができませんでした、、、
ちなみに大人がようやく足がつくかなというレベルの水位。子供は完全に頭の上まで水。
おとなりの小さな子供は水が深すぎて終始怖がってました。

この日は外国人の方が多く、先に外国人の方がみんな窓際の席へ案内されてました。日本人は後回し。子供がいる家族は窓際でしたが、大人グループは中央のテーブルへ。ちょっと外国人と日本人の扱いに差を感じました。アメリカだから仕方ないですかね。

あと外国のスタッフさん、とてもみんな楽しく親切な方ばかり！それに比べて日本のスタッフさん、笑顔もなく、ちょっと残念でした。

ですが、なかなか他ではできない体験！存分に楽しみました。ありがとうございました！

The blue sky! The blue sea!! I was moved by the view of Waikiki Beach and Diamond Head from the seaside! My partner, who usually doesn't like heights, also enjoyed it and said it felt great!

There were times when my feet and butt got a bit wet from the sea, but it would be good to let those who are not comfortable with that know in advance☆ The staff were very friendly!

青い空！青い海！！海側から見えるワイキキビーチやダイヤモンドヘッドに感動しました！
高いの苦手と言ってた彼も、気持ち良かった！と言うくらい楽しめて良かったです！

上手く足やおしり位が海に浸かることがありましたが、苦手な方はやめて欲しいと伝えていければ良さそうです☆とてもノリの良いスタッフさんでした！

We boarded the boat with three groups and enjoyed cruising while gazing at the clear waters of Hawaii. After savoring a peaceful time, it was finally time for parasailing!

We were third in line, but… I actually got seasick during the wait (tears). When our turn came, I thought, "Will it feel refreshing once we're up in the sky?" but the wind made it quite bumpy up there! (laughs)

Still, the view of Hawaii from above was breathtaking, and for a moment, I forgot about the swaying. I didn't have the chance to take photos myself, so it was a good decision to request the service to have photos taken from the boat for $40!

私たちは3組でボートに乗り込み、しばらくハワイの透き通った海を眺めながらクルージング。穏やかな時間を楽しんだ後、いよいよパラセーリングがスタート！

順番は3番目だったのですが…実は待ち時間で船酔いしてしまいました（涙）。いざ自分たちの番が来て、「空に上がったらスッキリするかな？」と思っていたら、空の方が風で揺れる揺れる！笑

それでも、上空から見るハワイの景色は圧巻で、一瞬その揺れも忘れられるほど。セルフで写真を撮る余裕はなかったので、40ドルで船上から撮影してもらえるサービスを頼んでおいて正解でした！

It was an exhilarating experience to go parasailing with my wife, who has a fear of heights, and our responsible daughter. We were the first ones up, so there was no time to think or hesitate. The breathtaking view overlooking Waikiki Beach and Diamond Head made me feel like I was in heaven.

高所恐怖症の妻としっかり者の娘と3人でのパラセーリングでトップバッターだった為に考えたり迷ったりする間もなくいきなりの空中散歩でしたが、ワイキキビーチとダイヤモンドヘッドを見渡す絶景に正に天国にいる如く最高の気分でした(^^♪
