All Reviews for Snorkeling Cruises & Tours

As soon as we left the port, without even having time to prepare, we encountered a pod of dolphins! After diving in and enjoying that, we also saw sea turtles and stingrays. I never expected to see a whale before heading back after playing on the SUP. When it was really time to go back, I realized that my digital camera, which the captain had around his neck, was missing... Even though I said, "It's okay," everyone helped look for it in the water. Within five minutes, Maiko found it, and everything was a surprise! Thank you, everyone.

港を出てすぐ、準備をする暇もなくイルカの群れがーっ！急いで飛び込み堪能したところでウミガメ、エイも登場。
SUPで遊んで帰港する前にクジラまで見られるなんて思いもしませんでした。
で、ホントに帰るとなった時にキャプテンが首からかけていた私のデジカメが無いことに気付いて…
「もういいよー」と言っているのに皆で海の中を探してくれました。
5分もしないうちにマイコーが見つけてくれて、何もかもがサプライズ！
みなさんありがとうございました。

We went on our honeymoon. Swimming with dolphins requires a lot of stamina... I was able to see one dolphin swimming from a distance.

When viewing dolphins from the boat, it was so much fun to see them mating and to be able to watch many dolphins chasing the boat up close! Just this experience made it worth participating in the tour. I was also moved to see three sea turtles!! It was my first time snorkeling, and there were so many fish, plus we were able to take a lot of photos, which was great! I wish we could buy the photo data just for ourselves, even if it was a bit pricey. I don't need the ones with everyone in them... But it became the best memory!

新婚旅行で行きました。イルカと泳ぐのは体力が必要です・・・。泳いでいるイルカを遠目で１匹見れました。
船からイルカを見るときは、交尾とかみれたり、船おっかけてくるたくさんのイルカが凄く至近距離で見れたりとっても楽しかったです！！これだけでツアー参加して良かったです。ウミガメも３匹いて感動しました！！初のシュノーケリングでしたが魚もたくさんいて、写真も沢山撮ってもらえてよかったです！！写真データが、自分たちだけのでも、多少割高でいいので買えたらいいのになーって思いました。みんながうつってるやつはいらないです・・・。でも最高な思い出になりました。

I was impressed by the beauty of the ocean. The hamburger I had on the boat was very delicious!! I would like to participate again when I go to Hawaii.

海のきれいさに感動しました。
また船の上で食べるハンバーガーはとっても美味しかったです！！
またハワイに行った時は参加したいです。

My sister and I signed up for the tour, and on the day of the tour, there were four participants including two foreigners. The weather was completely different from the rain the day before; it was clear and relatively warm. Although there weren't large schools of fish, we saw some swimming around, which was very enjoyable! Additionally, we miraculously encountered a sea turtle, which was incredibly moving :) According to our guide, it had been about a month since the last sighting…! I was so happy. The water temperature was cold even with a wetsuit, and it was a bit murky when diving, possibly due to the rain the day before, but I was very satisfied. Our guide, Chieko, was cheerful and friendly, making it a very enjoyable tour. Thank you!

姉妹2人でツアーに申し込み、当日は外国人2名も合わせて4名の参加でした。この日は前日の雨とは打って変わって快晴で比較的あたたかく、大群とはいきませんでしたがお魚さんもそこらで泳いでいてとても楽しかったです！また、奇跡的にウミガメにも遭遇でき、大変感動しました:) ガイドさんによれば1ヶ月ぶりぐらいだとか…！嬉しかったです。水温はウェットスーツを着ていても冷たく、前日の雨のせいか潜ると少し白んでいましたがとても満足です。ガイドのちえこさんも明るく気さくに話してくださりとても楽しいツアーになりましたありがとうございました！

Had the best day in spite of the rain. Anthony, Cord and Jenner made sure we were comfortable and entertained! Great BBQ lunch was a bonus

The weather wasn't perfectly clear, but the sea was beautiful. I thought I had chosen a day with low water levels for the sandbar by researching in advance, but there was still water up to my knees. However, I was satisfied because I was able to see sea turtles while snorkeling. The guide was also great, getting everyone excited and actively taking photos, which was a nice service. The only point for improvement would be that since there were quite a few people on the tour, it took some time to gather everyone, and there were moments when we bumped into each other while snorkeling.

天気は快晴ではありませんでしたが、海は綺麗でした。肝心のサンドバーは事前に調べて水位が低い日を選んだつもりですが、膝下くらいまで水があったもののシュノーケリングでウミガメを見ることができ満足です。ガイドさんも盛り上げてくれ写真を積極的にとってくれるなどサービスがよかっったです。唯一改善点としては、ツアー人数がそれなりに多いので集合に時間がかかったりシュノーケリングの時にぶつかったりしたことでしょうか。

I encountered wild dolphins.
I found a mother and baby dolphin in the pod, and they were very cute.
The tour guide and the crew were incredibly cheerful and it was a lot of fun.
I was worried about getting seasick, but the enjoyable atmosphere made it completely fine.
The hamburger on the boat was also very delicious.
However, the water was colder than I expected.
I think it's a good idea to bring a rash guard.
It was a very good experience.

野生のイルカに出会えました。
群れの中に親子のイルカを見つけましたが、とてもかわいかったです。
ツアーガイドさんも船のクルーの方たちもすごぐ明るくて楽しかったです。
心配していた船酔いも楽しい雰囲気だったので全く大丈夫でした。
船の上でのハンバーガーもとてもおいしかったです。
ただ、海の中は思ってたより寒かったです。
ラッシュガードを持参した方がいいと思います。
とても良い体験でした。

Don’t worry about the early pickup to get you to the west side of Oahu. After swimming with dolphins and seeing at least 10 whales including a mother and calf, you will be wide awake. Sleeping is for the shuttle back home after such a fun-filled adventure. Do it, you won’t regret it!

activity instructions were not clear as there are 2 Outrigger hotels on Waikiki beach- maybe that can be made clear for future bookings.

safety instructions were good and snorkelling excellent with 2 helpers in the water to show where the turtles and fish were and keep you in the area. Waves were picking up when we left and I'm not a good sailor, so I didnt have any snacks or drinks . Sails were raised and all the crew were very good for the sail around the harbour.

We were blessed with good weather, but for a while after setting sail, there were no signs of dolphins, and I started to lose hope, thinking it was just nature. Then, during our last chance, we encountered a large pod of about 60 dolphins! We were able to swim quite close to them and even witnessed them jumping, which was incredibly exciting.

On our way back, we had another amazing encounter with a mother whale and her calf at a surprisingly close distance! I was moved by the adorable sight of the baby whale mimicking its mother by flapping its tail. At the sea turtle spot, I was also thrilled to swim alongside a quite large sea turtle.

Even if you're not a strong swimmer, the instructors were very attentive, making for a safe and enjoyable experience!

Thank you very much! ^ ^

天候に恵まれましたが、出航してから暫くイルカの影も形もなく、自然相手だしと諦めモードに。
ラストチャンスの回遊で60頭ぐらいのイルカの大群に遭遇！かなり近くで泳げ、ジャンプする姿にも巡り会えて大興奮。

大満足で帰り途中、かなり近めの距離でクジラの親子に遭遇！赤ちゃんクジラが親を真似て尻尾をパタパタする可愛らしい姿に感激。ウミガメスポットでもかなり大きなウミガメと一緒に泳げ大満足でした。

泳ぎが苦手でもインストラクターの皆さんがしっかりとアテンドしてくれ、安心＆楽しい時間でした！

ありがとうございました^ ^

It was the perfect excursion! Went on a 2 hour boat ride with really chill dudes, they took us out to the perfect spot and wet hot close to a bunch of turtles, and finally finished off our trip with some stuff drinks and a relaxing return back to the beach. Highly recommend!

Wow! We had such a good time on the boat this morning. Was convenient to get the boat at 10.30 just after breakfast from right on the beach. Crew were friendly and just a short journey out to Turtle Canyon! The crew were fun and helpful, and when we got to Turtle Canyon we were lucky enough to see 6+ turtles, many fish and the crew/ lifeguard/ guide pointed out a few extra interesting things. We had plenty of time to be in the water looking at the turtles, most people returned to the boy long before they had to and enjoyed a few drinks in a beautiful setting.
We looked out for whales or dolphins on the way back but didn’t get lucky, Aparently they are there though and can sometimes be seen.
They provided life jackets which were good to snorkel with as don’t have to take too much effort to stay floating and can easily deflate if you want to dive down.
Not was not too crowded, we had only about 15 people but they did say they can do up to 49 people and I imagine that would be very crowded!
At turtle canyon there were quite a few other boats but if you were patient it wasn’t that bad in the water snorkeling around, just watch out for any collisions with other swimmers!
The crew were good and kept an eye on us in the water at all times too, letting people know if they were going too far or anything and also pointing out where the turtles are!
In summary, something we would love to do again and would certainly recommend to any other people visiting Hawaii!
There isn’t much shade on the bot was one thing with nothing - so take a hat if it’s a sunny day!
Crew were very generous providing drinks on board too! I’d be surprised if anyone managed to have all three free drinks though after the snorkel (no alcohol before swimming) it’s only 20 mins back to the beach.

There is a dock about an hour from the hotel by shuttle bus, where we take a boat to the sandbar.

The area where the boat arrives at the sandbar was about waist-deep, but in some places, it was shallow enough to reach just below the knees.

While the sand did not emerge above the water's surface, the view was absolutely stunning! It felt surreal to walk in the middle of the ocean.

As soon as we arrived, we were able to see sea turtles swimming near the anchored boats, and during snorkeling, we saw sea turtles resting on the coral and many fish.

The staff spoke Japanese and made the experience very enjoyable.

I’m really glad I participated in the tour.

One thing to note is that this activity is weather-dependent. I participated in February, which is not only the rainy season but also when the water can feel cold. If it’s not sunny, the view may not be as breathtaking. Additionally, the UV rays are strong.

I recommend applying sunscreen, wearing a rash guard, bringing a slightly larger towel to dry off after getting out of the boat, and bringing something like a hoodie to wear.

送迎バスでホテルから1時間ほどのところに船着き場があり、船でサンドバーに向かいます。

サンドバーは、船が到着する場所は腰ぐらいの深さでしたが、場所によっては膝下ぐらいまでになるところもあります。

砂が水面から顔を出すことはありませんでしたが、大絶景！です。
海の真ん中を歩く非日常感。

停泊している船の近くを泳ぐウミガメを到着してすぐに見ることができ、シュノーケリングでは海底のサンゴの上で休んでいるウミガメとたくさんの魚を見ることができました。

スタッフさんは日本語で盛上げてくれるのでとても楽しい時間が過ごせました。

ツアーに参加して本当に良かったです。

注意点としては、天候に左右されるアクティビティであることです。
2月に参加していますが、この時期は雨季であるばかりでなく、海に入ると寒く感じます。
晴れていない時は大絶景とまではいかないかもしれません。
そして、紫外線は強いです。

日焼け止めを塗り、ラッシュガードを着用することと、船から上がったら体をしっかり拭くことができるように少し大きめのタオルを用意すること、パーカー等の羽織る物を持参することをおすすめします。

The tour took place in Hawaii under unusually low and rough weather conditions. Right after departure, many people started feeling seasick, but it turned out to be a lucky day, as we encountered a large pod of dolphins that swam leisurely beside us and even surfaced, which the crew described as a miracle. During snorkeling after the dolphins, we also had the rare chance to see a ray.

The weather changed rapidly, with rain, sunshine, and clouds, but thanks to that, we were able to see a double rainbow. The strong winds made it difficult to stop shivering on the boat. There was no place to change out of wet swimsuits, so we had to dry off with towels and put on a jacket while still wet. Those who are not confident in the cold should be cautious on cloudy days. For those worried about seasickness, I recommend starting with a shorter dolphin tour.

ハワイでは滅多にない気温が低く荒れ気味の天候の元でのツアーでした。出航直後から船酔いする人続出でしたが、イルカの大群に出会えた上、イルカ達がずっと私達のそばを悠々と泳いだり、水面に浮かび上がって来たりすらクルー曰く奇跡のようなラッキーデーでした。イルカの後の亀とシュノーケリングの際も珍しくエイに出会えたりしました。
途中雨が降り、晴れ間が出たり曇ったりと目まぐるしく天気が変わりましたがお陰でダブルレインボーまで見られました。
風が強くて船上で体の震えが止まらず辛かったです。濡れた水着を着替える場所は無いのでタオルで拭いて濡れたまま上に上着を羽織るしかありません。寒さに自信のない人は曇りの日は要注意です。船酔いの心配な人はまずは時間の短いイルカ中学に入学する事をお勧めします。

I was happy to fulfill my long-time dream of swimming with dolphins. I was able to see them up close. It was cold, but the wetsuit I borrowed was helpful. If there's one thing I want to mention, it's that since I rented a car, I met at the designated location, but the meeting point, the "public restroom," was quite hard to find. It was still dark at the meeting time, and other participants' bus was delayed, which made me quite anxious, wondering if I was at the wrong meeting point. In the end, I found out by asking someone from another tour company. I had asked during the confirmation call the day before, "Will I be able to find the restroom easily?" but the response was vague.

長年の夢（？）だった、イルカと泳ぐことができて嬉しかったです。しっかり見ることができました。寒かったのですが、お借りしたウエットスーツが役にたちました。一つだけ言っておきたいことがあるとしたら・・レンタカーのため、現地集合にしたのですが、集合場所の「公衆トイレ」がかなり分かりづらかったです。集合時間はまだ暗かったし、他の参加者のバスが遅れてきて、集合場所が違うのではないかと、かなり不安な気持ちになりました。最終的に、他のツアー会社さんの方にお聞きして判明しました。前日の参加確認の電話で「トイレってすぐに分かりますかね？」と聞いておきましたがその辺のお返事も曖昧でした。

The meeting place was easy to find♪
It was my first time snorkeling in Hawaii♪♪
I got to see sea turtles, and the time after snorkeling became a wonderful memory. I want to participate again♪
My waterproof camera was a big help✧‧˚

集合場所も分かりやすかったです♪
初めてのハワイでのシュノーケリングでした♪♪
ウミガメも見れて、シュノーケリングの後の時間もとてもいい思い出になりました。また参加したいです♪
防水カメラが大活躍でした✧‧˚

I participated in February, which is winter and the rainy season in Hawaii. Although the wind felt a bit chilly, the weather was pleasant and enjoyable. Our shuttle bus driver, Pete, had a friendly and relaxing talk in Japanese that made the ride to the port fun from the start.

My partner, who has had ear surgery in the past, was a bit scared of the water, but the supportive staff and the variety of activities helped ease those worries. They explained that the boat would sway due to the wind, and they sold anti-nausea products for those who didn't bring medication or couldn't take it. We purchased some, and they worked very well for us. On our return flight, the plane was quite bumpy, and many people felt nauseous, but thanks to the anti-nausea products we bought, we were fine. It turned out to be a surprisingly good purchase (it's a good idea to bring cash in dollars if you plan to buy).

Once on the boat, our Japanese guide, Izumi, began her explanation. Izumi's explanations were excellent, clearly outlining what to do and what not to do, which was very impressive. We were excited to be there, but she emphasized the importance of following proper etiquette, not putting ourselves in danger, and not enduring discomfort if we felt unwell. She also mentioned that touching sea turtles incurs a fine of 350,000 yen. It was truly educational, as she provided explanations not found in the guidebook about protecting the environment for future visits.

The captain also tried to keep the boat steady and moved slowly. After about 20 minutes on the boat, we arrived at the planned beach location. Unfortunately, it wasn't a beach, but the shallow waters were calm and very beautiful.

We chose not to participate in snorkeling and instead enjoyed activities on the sandy bottom. The staff was engaging and made it easy to communicate any needs or issues.

Moreover, two sea turtles came close to us!

A cool foreign staff member took photos for us.

We enjoyed a delicious buffet lunch on the boat, which was filling and a lot of fun!

From start to finish, it was an exciting and enjoyable experience! Thank you to all the staff.

Thank you, Hawaii! I want to participate again.

ハワイでは真冬で雨季の2月に参加しました。
やや風が冷たく感じましたが、それも気持ちよく感じるような良いお天気でした。
お迎えバスのピートさんのトークは緊張をほぐしてくれるフレンドリーな日本語トークで朝から楽しく港まで到着しました。
過去に耳鼻の手術を受けている相方さんは、水に潜れなくはないのですが、少々水が怖いので楽しめるか心配だったのですが、そんな心配を吹き飛ばしてくれるスタッフの皆さんのサポーティプな対応と、アクティビティの豊富さでした。
風があるので船が揺れるから船酔いや、波酔いの説明があり、薬を持ってこなかった人や飲めない人用に酔い止めグッズを販売してくれてます。私たちは購入しました。
私たちにはとても効果がありこの日の酔い止め効果も抜群でしたが、帰国の飛行機がかなり揺れて酔ってる人が多かったのですが、購入した酔い止めグッズを使用して酔わずに済みました。思わぬ良い買い物までできました。(購入するなら現金ドルを持って行くといいですよ)

船に乗ると日本人ガイドのIzumiさんの説明が始まります。Izumiさんの説明が秀逸でしっかりと良いこと、ダメなことをわかりやすく教えてくれて感動ものです。
私たちは楽しみにここに来ていること。
でも、楽しむためにはしっかりとマナーを守り、自分を危険に晒さないことはもちろん、具合悪かったら我慢しないことや、海ガメに触ると罰金35万円かかることなど。また次も気持ちよく参加ように環境を守る。ことのガイドブックには載っていない説明など本当に勉強になりました。

キャプテンもできるだけ揺れないようにゆっくりと船を走らせてくれました。船に乗ること20分くらいでビーチ予定の場所に到着。
残念ながらビーチにはなってませんでしたが、浅瀬で波も穏やかなのでとっても綺麗でした。

シュノーケリングには参加せず砂地でアクティビティを楽しむ方を選びました。
スタッフのみなさんが楽しくもりあげてくれて、いつでも必要なものや困りごとを伝えられる状態になってます。

しかも、海ガメさんたちが2匹も寄ってきてくれました。

写真もスタッフの外国人のカッコいいお兄さんが撮ってくれました。

船上で食べるブッフェランチもお腹いっぱい美味しく食べて、最高に楽しかったです！

最初から最後までずっと楽しくワクワクでした！
スタッフのみなさんありがとうございました。

ありがとう、ハワイ！
また参加したいです。

It was cold, but beautiful! I think I could have enjoyed it even more if it were summer. I'm very satisfied because I got to see a sea turtle.

寒かったけど、キレイだった！
夏だともっと思い切って遊べたのかもと思う。
ウミガメとも会えたからとても満足です。

We took the 12 pm tour and boarded the catamaran from the beach. It only took 10 minutes to motor out to the snorkel site so it was not far from shore. There were 3-4 other boats with groups in the same area but there was plenty of space. We snorkeled until everyone had returned to the boat. Then the crew raised the sail and we had a great time coasting over the beautiful blue water, returning just inside of the 3 hour advertised time. Free snacks (chips, granola bars) were provided and you could buy drinks.

The crew were funny, friendly, and gave clear instructions. They kept watch over us during the snorkel. They regularly checked up on each guest after the snorkel to make sure everyone was comfortable. I wear glasses, and have a -5.25 prescription. They had prescription goggles on board that were -6.0 and I was able to see so clearly without my glasses! We saw a group of spinner dolphins on the way out, and I saw 5 different sea turtles below us during the snorkel. Several of them surfaced to breathe close by which was amazing! We saw a baby octopus, and lot of beautiful fish. The crew member in the water with us was good to caution people to give the turtles their space which was important.

Advice: you are barefoot to board the boat and on the boat, and you store your bag and shoes in cubby holes on board. It's good to bring a sun shirt so your back doesn't burn. You do get cold while snorkeling, but less so if you keep moving. Bring a towel and warm clothes to wear after if you tend to get cold. Hats will fly away easily so you need one with a draw string. They provide sunscreen if you forget your own. I took gravol before the trip, so I'm not sure if I needed it!

I previously went on the Angel Sea Tour and had a great experience, so this time I invited my friend's family to join. They were also very happy, and I was pleased that the Japanese female guide remembered me. The tour included lunch, and I think it's a great deal.

以前、天使の海ツアーに行きとても良かったので、今回は友人家族を誘って参加しました。　友人家族も大変喜んでおり、ガイドの日本人女性が私を覚えていてくれて、これも嬉しかったです。　ランチも付いてのツアーで、格安だと思います。

I booked this tour back around August of 2018 for a February 2019 trip. The original date was supposed to be Sunday morning on their first tour; however, they reached out to us on Saturday morning to notify us rescheduling might be required, as the island was going to be hit with an extremely severe storm over the weekend. Sure enough, Sunday morning came, and it was determined the waters were too unstable to enjoy a safe snorkeling experience. We were able to re-book to Monday afternoon, with the hopes the waters would mellow out and clear up by then. We arrived at the meeting spot, and right as we were about to disembark, we were notified the waters were still too dangerous. We were then given the option to either reschedule, or go sail with them for an hour or so, and get a refund on the snorkeling portion. Given we were leaving the following day, we were unfortunately unable to reschedule, and opted for the sailing. The captain, Ryan, and the rest of the crew were all wonderful, and made it a memorable experience. We were out sailing for around an hour and a half, and the views were breathtaking. They also provided everyone a few free drinks to help make up for the inconvenience, and the free snacks provided were much appreciated. While we never got to enjoy the snorkeling itself, I can vouch for the company and their customer service. Thank you for turning lemons to lemonade! Also, in February it was a bit chilly, so I would recommend a light jacket, and definitely sunglasses :)

The boat staff were very nice, but the weather before this activity wasn’t ideal, so that is part of why this review isn’t stellar. Also, the tour said that snorkelling equipment including fins was provided. Fins were not. They are actually very helpful for staying buyouant, especially in rougher waters like we had, so we were counting on them. The area was VERY busy, with many tour groups out there, so it wasn’t a very pleasant snorkelling experience - as you kept getting kicked in the face. I wouldn’t recommend this - find a nice spot and go on your own.

**[Experience Review]**
I participated at the end of January, but the maximum temperature was 22 degrees, and it was very cold. Right after boarding, I was able to see sea turtles and whales, but we struggled to find dolphins for four hours while being rocked by the boat. Finally, we spotted dolphins, but by then, I was down due to the cold and seasickness. In the end, I didn't get to enter the water and just watched the dolphins from the boat.

**[What I Liked About This Tour]**
The staff's determination to find dolphins is impressive! True to their word, while other tours were turning back to the harbor due to the lack of sightings, they took us here and there in search of dolphins.

**[Advice for Future Participants]**
If you are prone to seasickness, please make sure to take anti-nausea medication! They cannot sell medication on board, but they do sell seasickness prevention wristbands for $20. However, even with the medication and the wristband, I still felt nauseous. I wore a wetsuit for an additional fee (was it $10 or $20?), but it was really cold. Being exposed to the north wind for four hours was truly freezing. After coming out of the water, a man from another group became so pale that it was concerning, and he couldn't stop shaking.

On the way there, the bus provided explanations and taught us about Hawaiian history, so it wasn't really a relaxing atmosphere (in both good and bad ways). However, on the way back, there was an announcement about photo sales as soon as we got on, but after that, the bus was quiet enough for a nice nap. I forgot the price of the photos, but payment was either on the bus or at the office, so if you don't have any business at the office, I recommend bringing a bit of cash. I ended up needing quite a bit of cash for the seasickness band, wetsuit, photo costs, and tips. I'm glad I had it on me (laughs). Regarding tips, there was an announcement before disembarking saying, "If you think it was good..." and my husband and I paid $20, but it seemed that many people either didn't tip or only tipped around $5.

【実際に体験した感想】
1月末に参加しましたが最高気温が22度でとても寒かったです。
乗船後すぐにウミガメやクジラは見れたのですが
肝心のイルカがなかなか見つからず船に揺られること4時間。
ようやくイルカが見つかりましたが、その頃には私は寒さと船酔いでダウン。
結局、私は海に入ることはなく船上でイルカウォッチングになりました。


【このツアーで気に入ったところ】
必ずイルカを見つけます！というスタッフさんの意志がすごいです。
その言葉通り、ほかのツアーはあまりの見つからなさに港へ引き返している中
イルカを見つけるためにあっちへ行きこっちへ行きしてくださいました。


【これから参加する人へのアドバイス】
船酔いする人は必ず！本当に必ず酔い止めの薬を飲んでください。
酔い止めの薬を販売することは出来ないので・・・と
船酔い防止のリストバンド（20ドル）を販売してくれますが
酔い止めの薬+リストバンドでも私は酔いました。
追加料金（10ドル？20ドル？）でウェットスーツを着てましたが
とにかく寒いです。4時間も北風に打たれると本当に寒いです。
海から上がったあとは別の組の男性が、こちらが心配になるくらい
血色がみるみる悪くなり震えが止まらなくなってました。

行きのバスは説明＆ハワイの歴史を教えてくださっており
とても寝られる雰囲気ではありませんでしたが（いい意味でも悪い意味でも）
帰りのバスは乗ってすぐに写真販売の案内がありましたが
その後はゆっくり寝られるくらい車内が静かでした。
写真の値段を忘れてしまいましたが、バス車内でのお会計
もしくはオフィスにてお会計でしたのでオフィスに行く用事のない方は
少しばかりの現金を持ってくることをオススメします。
私は船酔いのバンド+ウェットスーツ+写真代+チップを支払ったので
結構な現金が必要になりました。持っててよかった～（笑）
チップに関しては下船前に「よかったと思ってくださる方は～」と
アナウンスがあり私と主人とで20ドル支払いましたが
意外とみなさん払われてないor5ドル程度の方が多かった印象です。

The weather was unfortunately cold during snorkeling, but the guide's exceptional attentiveness was impressive. Choosing the VIP boat made for a fun memory.

I definitely want to participate again next time.

シュノーケリング時はあいにくの天気で寒かったのですがガイドさんが最高の気配りで感動です、VIPの船 選択で楽しい思い出になりました

次回も必ず参加したいです

The weather wasn't great, but I had a wonderful time. It's about an hour from the hotel, and the boarding area is also a location from the Jurassic Park movie. I was satisfied to see sea turtles. Next time, I hope for a sunny day!

　天気が良くなかったけど、満喫できました。
ホテルから１hくらいの場所にあり、乗船場はジュラシックパークの映画の舞台にもなったところ。海亀もみれ満足でした。今度は天気のよい日に！

This is about my fifth time participating. Each time, the season, weather, temperature, and companions are different, so I have memories from each visit. This time, it was a trip with my two children. The weather wasn't very favorable, and we experienced a chilly sandbar, but the usual scenery welcomed us. I'll come again.

今回で都合5回目くらいの参加です。
毎回、季節、天候、気温そして同伴者が違うので毎回毎回の思い出があります。
今回は親子３人旅。
天候にちょっと恵まれず、肌寒い中でのサンドバーとなりましたが、
いつも通りの景色が私たちを迎えてくれました。
また、来ますね。

This is my third time participating. I always join when I go to Hawaii because I find healing with the dolphins and turtles. I was able to see the dolphins and turtles again this time, but since the schedule is tailored to them, the early morning pickup is tough (of course). If you plan to use this program, you need to adjust your schedule before and after to avoid getting unwell.

今回で3回目の参加です。
イルカとカメに癒されるのでハワイに行くときは必ず参加しています。
今回もイルカとカメに会えましたが、彼らに合わせたスケジュールなので、(もちろんなのですが)朝のピックアップが早いのが大変です。
このプランを利用する場合は前後のスケジュールを調整して臨まないと、体調を崩します。

I used to get seasick and wasn't good at swimming in the ocean, but the beauty of the sea and sky made me forget my discomfort. I was thrilled to swim with sea turtles, which I had always dreamed of. I was also surprised by the pod of dolphins. I have come to love the ocean, which I once found difficult.

船酔いもするし、海で泳ぐことは苦手でしたが、海と空の綺麗さが酔いを忘れさせてくれました。
念願のウミガメと一緒に泳ぐことも出来て感動しました。イルカの群れにはビックリです。
苦手だった海が大好きになりました。

I didn't know that the Heaven's Sea tour had to be booked in advance, and after regretting it for a few years, I finally went back for a revenge trip.

As a result, I had a really great time! I’ve always liked turtles, but even my wife, who isn’t a fan, was excited when she saw them. Turtles are so cute!

Since it was early February, it was a bit cold on the boat when it was cloudy, but the sun came out, so it was manageable. The water was honestly cold, but once you get used to it, you can tolerate it. They offered free wetsuit rentals.

I thought I could manage with just a regular hoodie, but since you wear a suit in the water and walk on the sand for about 30 minutes, marine shoes would be better. Some people got hurt on their feet.

At the sandbar, wearing a T-shirt is actually warmer, but for photos, swimsuits might look warmer and more picturesque.

The boat ride was slow, about 10 minutes, so personally, I didn't need motion sickness medication. However, it was a very windy day, so if you're unsure, it might be a good idea to have some. (They sell motion sickness medication and sandals at a reasonable price.)

I wish I had bought an underwater camera. I never expected turtles to come so close! Well, since they swim in shallow water, you can still take good photos from above the water.

Once you get out of the water, it’s cold, so having a larger bath towel would be good. The BBQ on the boat was quite delicious.

There were about three staff members, including the guide, and we were able to play beach volleyball together with others. That was a lot of fun!

They were very considerate of small children and the elderly, showing great hospitality. You can feel safe bringing your parents along.

There were also people doing other marine activities, and they offered free rentals.

Snorkeling is easy to practice, so even those who are not good at it can give it a try. Even if you don’t snorkel, you can see turtles at the sandbar, so it’s okay to take it easy.

Thank you to all the staff! Aloha!

天国の海はツアーでないといけないのを知らず、以前は悔しい思いをして数年、リベンジで行ってきました。

結果、行って本当に楽しかったです！
元から亀は好きでしたが、亀好きでない奥さんでも、見たときは興奮していました。
亀ってかわいいですね。

2月初旬なので、曇ったら船上は寒いのはありますが、太陽も出てきてなんとかなりました。
海の中は正直冷たく、慣れれば一応我慢はできるレベル。ウェットスーツの無料貸出もしていました。
普通のパーカーでなんとかなると思って軽く見てましたが、海中でも着れるスーツや、砂の上を30分ほど歩くので、マリンシューズがあればベターです。足に怪我する人もいたので。

サンドバーではTシャツを着てたほうが実際寒くないですが、写真では水着のほうが暖かそうで絵になるかも。

船はジェットでもなくゆっくりで、10分ほどなので、酔い止めは個人的には不要です。
風がかなり強い日で、自信がない人はあったほうがいいかも。
(酔い止めわサンダル等、有料でそこまで高くない価格で販売はしています)

水中カメラは買っておけばよかったです。あそこまで目の前に亀が来るなんて思ってもなかったので。まあ、浅瀬を泳いでるので、海の上からでもちゃんと撮れますが。

海から上がったら寒いので、大きめのバスタオルもあったほうが良いです。
船上のBBQも、なかなか美味しかったです。

ガイドさん含め3人ほどスタッフがいましたが、他の人たちも含め、一緒にビーチバレーできました。これがかなり楽しかったです！

小さいお子さんや老人への配慮もしっかりしていて、ホスピタリティーあります。親を連れてきても安心できますね。

他のマリンアクティビティーをしている人もおり、無料で貸し出ししていました。

シュノーケリングは無理なく練習できるので、苦手な人もいけると思います。シュノーケリングをしなくとも、サンドバー上で亀も見れますし、無理せずOK

スタッフのみなさん、有難うございました！
アローーーハー！

I participated in this tour before and had a great experience, so I invited a friend to try it as well. The weather was nice, and the turtles were swimming comfortably, making me realize that I am currently in Oahu. The food was delicious, and I recommend it. It's safer to have motion sickness medication on hand.

このツアーは以前にも参加して良かったので友人を誘いましてトライしまし。
天気も良く、カメも気持ち良く泳いでいて、このツアーでオワフ今いるんだなと実感できます。
食事も美味しいのですすめです、船酔いの薬はあった方が安全ですね。
