All Reviews for Snorkeling Cruises & Tours

Around 6 AM, a bus will pick you up near the hotel. It's early in the morning, so I'm sleepy, but the guide on the bus explains about dolphins and more with quizzes, so I can't sleep (laughs).

Once we arrive at the port, there's a little time before boarding the boat, so it's a good time for a restroom break. There was also a cute cat! The bus driver even showcased his ukulele skills♪

In Hawaii, the sea is cold in November, so I rented a wetsuit. It costs $10 per person, and everyone in my group rented one. Even with the wetsuit, there were times when it was a bit chilly, so it's better to borrow one. Also, while the boat doesn't seem to rock too much, there were some people who got seasick, so motion sickness medication is a must! I regretted not taking it since I felt a bit queasy too★

Not long after boarding the boat, we dove into the sea because there was a pod of dolphins! I saw many dolphins swimming right in front of me. After coming back on the boat and moving to another spot, we dove again. I got to see them well the second time too, and I was able to take pictures with an underwater camera. It would have been even better if the dolphins had stayed a bit longer, but it was over in a flash.

After that, we went snorkeling and swam around in the sea. I saw a turtle up close. Apparently, you shouldn't get within 2 meters of the turtle. A staff member found an octopus somewhere and let me touch it while it was on his shoulder. It was slippery (laughs).

They brought out canoes, a slide, and stand-up paddleboards, and we all took turns playing. It was tough to stand on the paddleboard! But the staff were there to help. They even did a handstand on the paddleboard!!

Lastly, we got to see a whale, even if just a little. There are whale tours in winter, but seeing one in November is lucky☆

It was super fun, but there were two disappointing things. The information said they would take photos that you could buy later and that you would receive an eco-bag, but neither was available during my time. I really wanted a photo with the dolphins. I also wanted the eco-bag!

Other than those two points, it was a fun tour where I could fully enjoy Hawaii♪

朝6時頃にホテルの近くまでバスで迎えに来てくれます。朝早いから眠いけど、バスの中ではお姉さんがイルカ等についてクイズを交えて説明してくれるので寝れません(笑)
港に着いたら船に乗るまで少し時間があるのでトイレタイム。かわいい猫ちゃんもいました。バスの運転手さんがウクレレ披露してくれたりも♪

ハワイでも11月の海は冷たいのでウェットスーツをレンタル。1人10ドルで、私が参加した回は全員がレンタルしてました。ウェットスーツ着てても少し寒い時あったので、借りた方が良いです。あと船はそんなに揺れてないと思うけど、船酔いしちゃってる人もいたので酔い止めは必須です！私も少し船酔いしちゃったので酔い止め飲んでおけば良かったと後悔★

船に乗ってからそんなに時間が経たないうちにイルカの群がいたとのことで海にダイブ！目の前を横切っていくたくさんのイルカを見れました。1度船に上がり移動してからまたすぐにダイブ。2度目もしっかり見れて、水中カメラで撮れました。もうちょっとイルカがゆっくりその場にいてくれたらもっと最高だったけど、あっという間だったな～。
その後はシュノーケリングで海を回遊。カメもすぐ近くに見れました。カメには2m以内に近づいてはいけないらしい。スタッフさんがどこからかタコを見つけてきて肩に乗せてたので触らせてもらいました。ヌルッとしてた(笑)
カヌーや滑り台、スタンドアップパドルを出してくれてみんなで交代で遊びました。スタンドアップパドルは立つの難しかった～！でもスタッフさんがフォローしてくれます。なんとスタンドアップパドルの上で倒立してくれたりも！！
そして最後にちょこっとですがクジラを見ることができました。冬はクジラツアーあるけど、11月に見られるのはラッキー☆

すごい楽しかったけど、ちょっと残念だったことが2点。案内には写真撮ってくれて後で購入できるってこととエコバッグもらえるって書いてあったけど、私の時は両方ありませんでした。イルカと一緒の写真撮ってもらいたかったな～。エコバッグも欲しかった～！
この2点の他はハワイを満喫できる楽しいツアーでした♪

I was really looking forward to the sandbar this time, and as mentioned in the reviews, the water level was about knee-high, so I participated with that in mind. When I arrived, the water level was indeed around my knees, just as I expected, but I was not disappointed at all; I was amazed by the beautiful scenery and the clarity of the sea! The staff actively took photos and engaged in conversation with us. The volleyball game we played with the staff and participants was a lot of fun! During the sea turtle watching, we were able to see many sea turtles from the boat. We even encountered a wild manta ray, which the staff said is rare, so we were lucky.

Snorkeling was my first experience, and I was anxious because I can't swim, but the staff explained everything clearly and patiently, and when I swam as instructed, I was able to move smoothly! They let me hold fish food, and fish gathered right in front of me. I also got to see a very large sea turtle resting in a coral reef hole! Each experience was truly wonderful, and I’m so glad I participated in this tour. All the staff were great, and I felt safe participating. Thank you very much.

今回とても楽しみにしていたサンドバー、口コミであったように、水位は膝ぐらいが当たり前の様子だった為、そのつもりで参加しました。
着いたところ、やはり水位は膝上ぐらいで予想通りでしたが、まったくガッカリすることは無く、周りの景色や海の綺麗さに感動しました！
スタッフさんも積極的に写真を撮ってくれたり、話しかけてくれました。
スタッフさんと参加者でやったバレーがとても楽しかったです！
海亀ウォッチングでは、沢山の海亀を船上から見れました。野生のマンタにも遭遇出来、スタッフさん曰く珍しい事だそうで、ラッキーでした。
シュノーケリングは、初体験かつ、泳げない身の為不安でしたが、丁寧かつ分かりやすく説明してくださり、その通りに泳いだらとってもスムーズに動けました！
魚の餌を持たせてくれ、目の前に魚が集まってきたり、珊瑚礁の穴には休憩中のとっても大きな海亀を見ることも出来ました！
どれも本当に素敵な経験で、心から参加して良かったツアーです。
スタッフの方も皆さん良い方で、安心して参加する事が出来ました。
ありがとうございました。

I participated in the afternoon course! It was my second time joining because I had a great experience the first time! During snorkeling, I was able to see many fish and sea turtles! The staff were also fun and great!

午後のコースに参加しました！前回参加して良かったので2回目の参加でした！シュノーケリングでは沢山の魚やウミガメを見る事ができました！スタッフの方々も面白くて良かったです！

Thank you to the crew for making our trip so special. Local couple who wanted to feel like a tourist for a day. They did not disappoint.

Amazing water and great knowledge of the ocean.

Mahalo!!

I participated in the latter half of November. Overall, I had a lot of fun. I think there might be better times to visit, but there are various activities to enjoy at sea, so it’s still a good option.

Looking back... I was guided to board one of two boats, with Japanese people on one and others on the other. It seemed that there were quite a few Japanese participants that day, and those who could speak English boarded the other boat.

The water depth at the sandbar was as expected, above the knees. If you're hoping for shallow water, I recommend checking the depth carefully. Even though the water was deep, it sparkled beautifully when the sun was out. For those who aren't particularly interested in taking photos, it might just turn into a snorkeling experience. November was a bit chilly. Beach volleyball seemed difficult with the deep water.

Then it was lunchtime. The lunch was okay. Since there were many Japanese on our boat, it took some time.

After eating, we headed to a spot where turtles appear. We saw quite a few! However, it was challenging to take photos as they quickly disappeared.

After that, we went snorkeling. We wore life jackets while snorkeling, so we were floating on the surface. There were many fish around the coral. I thought I saw artificial round rocks in the gaps of the coral, but it turned out to be a turtle! When I got closer, the turtle started swimming away, and I was really excited! When snorkeling, keep an eye out for turtles; you might spot one! Those who are confident swimmers were snorkeling without life jackets.

I really enjoyed the sea. I think it's suitable for people of all ages. Definitely have fun!

11月後半に参加しました。
結果としては、だいぶ楽しめました。
もっといい時期があるとは思いますが、海遊びとしては色々できるので良いのではないでしょうか？

振り返ると…
二艘の船に日本人こっち、それ以外こっちと誘導されて乗船。
参加した日は日本人が多めのようで、英語話せる方はもう一艘の方に乗られていました。

サンドバーの水深は予想通り膝以上。
砂が出ているのを期待している方は水深はしっかりチェックした方がいいと思います。
水深が深くても、晴れるとキラキラして綺麗でした。
写真にそんなに興味ない人はひたすらシュノーケリングになるかも。11月は少々寒かったです。
ビーチバレーは水深深いとやりづらそうでした。

そのままお昼の時間。
お昼はまぁまぁ。
日本人船は人数が多いので時間がかかります。

ご飯食べたらカメが現れるスポットへ。
結構会えるんですね。でも写真とるの大変。すぐ見えなくなります。

そのあとはシュノーケリング。
ライフジャケット着用でのシュノーケリングだったので、水面をくるくる。
サンゴの周りは魚がたくさんでした。
サンゴの隙間に人工的な丸い岩があるなーと思っていたら、カメでした！
近づいたらカメが泳ぎだして、かなり興奮しました！
シュノーケリングする際はカメがいるかもなので、探してみてください！
泳ぎに自信がある方はライフジャケットなしでもシュノーケリングされてましたよ。

海をだいぶ楽しめました。
老若男女いけると思います。
ぜひ楽しんで。

We participated in this activity because we wanted to see dolphins as a couple in our 50s. We were anxious about whether we would be able to see them, but we were moved to see dolphins swimming multiple times. Thanks to the staff who supported us.

Seeing sea turtles and enjoying delicious hamburgers along with the hula dance was also fantastic. It was a bit cold since it was early in the morning, so I was glad to borrow a wetsuit. There was a little time between getting off the boat and boarding the bus, so it might have been better to change into dry clothes.

We really enjoyed our time in Hawaii.

50代の夫婦でイルカが見たく参加しました。見る事が出来るか不安でしたが、何回もイルカの泳ぐ姿を見れ感動。スタッフさんがフォローして下さったお陰です。
ウミガメを見たり美味しいハンバーガーにフラダンスも最高でした。朝一だったためか寒く、ウェットスーツを借りてよかったです。船を降りてからバスに乗るまで少し時間があるので乾いた服に着替えたらよかったかなもです。
ハワイを満喫できました。

We decided to travel a lot as a family while my father, who is 70 years old, is still able to move around. We have been gathering with relatives once a month for planning for about a year now. I have always loved diving and have encouraged those around me to try it, but it seems there is a scary image associated with it, as everyone in my family except for me was quite hesitant about the dolphin school this time. However, thanks to the warm support and encouragement from the kind and cheerful staff, their anxious expressions disappeared. When the tour ended and we returned to the port, my father exclaimed, "The dolphin tour was the best!!" Normally, he doesn't joke around much, but during the tour, he was completely absorbed in enjoying the interactions with the sea and the staff, smiling the whole time! He was also earnestly dancing the hula on the boat, and I was very happy to capture those moments on camera. When I asked my 10-year-old niece what her best memory was after returning home, she immediately replied, "The dolphin school!!" My dream also came true, and I was really glad to see so many smiles from my family. The snorkeling gear and suits were in great condition, and the spam onigiri was delicious! I will definitely come back to enroll again.

父 70歳、身体が動くうちに家族でたくさん旅をしようと決めた旅行。
約一年前から親族で月１で集まりプランニングをしてきました。
わたしは元々ダイビングが好きで、周りにもすすめてきましたが、怖いというイメージがあるみたいで、今回のイルカ中学入校も私以外の家族は皆さんざん悩んでいました。
けれど、優しく明るいスタッフさんたちの手厚いフォローや声かけに、不安な表情も消え、
ツアーが終わって港に戻ると「イルカツアーが一番よかった！！」と父。
普段はおちゃらけることもあまりない父ですが、ツアー中は夢中になって海とスタッフさんたちとのやりとりを楽しみ、終始笑顔！
船上でのフラも一生懸命に踊っていて、撮影しながらとても嬉しかったです。
10歳の姪は帰国後、一番の想い出は？と問うと「イルカ中学！！」と即答。
私の夢も叶い、家族の笑顔がたくさん見ることができて、本当に参加してよかったです。
シュノーケルやスーツも美品でしたし、
スパムおにぎりも美味しかったです！
また入校しに行かせていただきます。

On this day, the visibility underwater was poor, and the dolphins didn't come close at all.

I could only see them from a distance, and no matter how much I swam, they just kept swimming away.

In the end, the guide made some excuses...

I understand it's nature and animals we're dealing with, but I felt a bit disappointed.

At least we got to ride the slide and kayak at the end, so my son's mood improved a little.

この日は水中の透明度も悪く、イルカも全然近くに寄ってきませんでした。

別のツアーの方や遠くに見えた程度で、
泳いでも、泳いでも逃げていくばかり、

最後にはガイドさんの言い訳が・・・

自然・動物相手なので仕方がないと思いますが少しがっかりな感じでした。

最後に滑り台とカヤックに乗せて頂いたので、息子の機嫌もすこしましになったかな。

Outstanding service... Dan and Chieko were amazing. As a non-swimmer they made the experience enjoyable. Very knowledgeable and down to earth people. Thank you!!!

I participated for the first time in Hawaii. The tour guide's high energy really lifted our spirits. I joined with my kindergarten-aged child, and it seemed quite scary for them. However, thanks to the encouragement from the staff and other participants, we were able to greet the dolphins and turtles. My child is learning to swim, so they can swim, but they had no experience swimming in the ocean and were scared of the goggles and snorkel. If possible, it would have been good to purchase them and practice at the hotel pool. The sight of the dolphins swimming was graceful and incredibly moving. More than that, it was wonderful to see the island surrounded by nature from the sea. Thank you very much.

初めてのハワイで参加させていただきました。添乗員さんのハイテンションで気分は盛り上がりました。幼稚園の子供と参加しましたが、相当怖かったようです。しかし、スタッフの皆さんや参加者の皆さんからの声かけがあり、イルカとカメに挨拶することができました。水泳を習っているので泳げないことはないのですが、海で泳ぐ経験が無く、ゴーグルとシュノーケルにも慣れていくて怖かったようです。可能であれば購入して、ホテルのプールででも連取すれば良かったです。イルカの泳ぐ姿は優美でなんとも言えない感動です。それよりも、自然に囲まれた島を海からみることができたのが良かったです。ありがとうございました。

We were picked up from the hotel before 7 AM.
On the bus, the staff provided explanations, so we didn't get bored on the way to the location.
Within 30 minutes of getting on the boat, the dolphin search began!
We quickly spotted dolphins!!
We entered the water and saw the dolphins from underwater. It was so beautiful and moving.
Seeing them from the boat is completely different...
It's more about watching the dolphins swim underwater rather than swimming with them.
I took some photos, but since the dolphins move and I was also moving with the waves, I couldn't get any nice shots.
Seeing them with my own eyes was much more beautiful than in photos.
I wish I could have watched the dolphins for a bit longer.
I want to join this tour again to see the dolphins!

朝は7時前にホテルにお迎えでした。
バスの中ではスタッフの方が説明したりで退屈せずに現地まで・・
船に乗って30分もしないうちにイルカ探しがスタート！
すぐにイルカ発見！！
海に入りイルカを水中から見ました♡
凄く綺麗で感動です(´⊙ω⊙`)
船の上から見るのとでは全く違って・・
一緒に泳ぐと言うよりは水中で泳いでるイルカを見る！って感じかな。
写真を撮ったのですがイルカも動くし自分も波で動くので綺麗には写真が撮れなかった(＞人＜;)
写真で見るより肉眼で見た方が凄く綺麗www
もう少し長い時間、イルカを見てたかったです。
またイルカを見にこのツアーに参加したいです♡

Due to the hurricane, the weather was not good, and the water level was about waist-high. I had participated before and was very satisfied, so I think I would have been satisfied again if the weather had been good. Next time, I would like to try again when the weather is nice. The guide was the same person as last time and was very kind.

ハリケーンの影響で、天気が良くなく、水位も腰上くらいまでありました。
以前に参加し大満足だったので、天気が良ければまた満足できたと思います？次回、天気が良い時にリベンジしてみたいです。
ガイドの方は前回と同じ方で、親切な方でした。

We only went to a sandbar that was about knee-deep (around 30 cm) in water. I guess it's our fault for not checking the low tide times, but is that really what a sandbar is supposed to be?

The snorkeling was just a very beginner course where we all moved along in a line in a small area. The sea wasn't beautiful, and compared to Okinawa, there were way too few fish. Even if there were sea turtles below, we were forced to wear life jackets, so we couldn't dive down to see them ourselves. We could only lend our camera to the guide to take pictures for us, which felt pointless.

It was also too cold due to seasonal factors. After lunch, no one wanted to participate in any activities; it was just cold.

After the tour, we weren't even allowed to take a shower and were put on the bus in our wet swimsuits for the ride back.

And all of this cost over $100. I definitely won't be going again.

サンドバーと言いながら膝下くらいまで（30㎝くらい）ある水の上に行っただけ。干潮の時刻調べなかったこちらが悪いといえばそれまでですが、あれでサンドバーとは如何なものか。
シュノーケルは超初心者コースのわずかな範囲をみんなで連なって進むだけ。海も綺麗じゃないし沖縄に比べたら魚も少な過ぎ。ウミガメが下にいてもライフジャケット強制装着なので自分では潜って見に行けない、ガイドにカメラ貸して撮ってもらうだけ、それ意味あるの？って感じ。
季節的な影響もあり寒過ぎ。ランチの後は誰もアクティビティで遊ばず、ただ寒いだけ。
終了後もシャワーを浴びることもなく、濡れた水着のままバスに乗せられて送迎。
これで$100越えですからね、もう行くことはありません。

I participated in late November, but it was drizzling and the water temperature was low. The sandbar looked different from the photos, and there was no visible beach. The water was murky, and I couldn't see many fish while snorkeling.

11月下旬に参加しましたが小雨が降ったりして水温も低く、サンドバーも写真と異なり砂浜が見られず、水も濁っておりシュノーケリングもそれほど魚が見れませんでした。

The weather was cloudy, a bit windy, and chilly, and the sea was somewhat murky, which was disappointing. I hope that when I come back next time, it will be a beautiful sandbar.

天気曇り、風も少し強く肌寒く、海も少し濁っていてイマイチだった。次回来る時があれば綺麗なサンドバーであって欲しい。

The crew was low key and so very friendly. This was one of the highlights of our trip. My 8 year old surprisingly did great snorkeling and we al had a super time! Thank you so much!

Thanks to the energetic guide and photographer, I had a great time. I was really glad to see dolphins and sea turtles up close. The sea is really cold at this time of year, so the wetsuit rental costs $10 per person, but it's definitely worth it. In fact, almost everyone rented one. Even with the wetsuit on, I felt cold when I got out of the water.

I gave up on marine sports because it was too cold to feel like going into the water.

It seems the grill for cooking the hamburger patties was broken, so I couldn't eat the hamburgers cooked by the captain, but I was able to enjoy delicious hamburgers from a hamburger shop on the bus ride back.

Honestly, I felt that the final hula dance was unnecessary.

元気なガイドさんとカメラマンさんのおかげで楽しめました。
イルカとウミガメを目の前で見ることができてよかったと思います。
この時期の海は本当に寒いのでウェットスーツは1人10ドルかかりますが、絶対借りた方が良いです。
実際にほぼ全員がレンタルしていました。
ウェットスーツを着ていても海から上がると寒かったくらいです。

マリンスポーツは、寒くて海に入る気がおきず、諦めました。

ハンバーガーの肉を焼くグリルが故障してしまったらしく、船長が焼くハンバーガーを食べることはできませんでしたが、帰りのバスでハンバーガーショップの美味しいハンバーガーをいただくことができました。

ただ正直最期のフラダンスはいらなかったかなぁという感じです。

Kailua Beach had bigger waves than I expected, so it wasn't suitable for snorkeling, but I enjoyed boogie boarding instead! Lunch is included, and you can choose between a pizza place or a plate lunch. The kids chose pizza, and it was huge! The plate lunch is a mini size, but I think it's just the right size.

カイルアビーチは思ったより波が大きくて、スノーケル向けではなかったですが、ブギーボードも借りれたのでそっちを満喫しました！ランチ付きとなってますが、ピザ屋かプレート屋と選択出来て、子供達はピザにしましたがデカかったです！プレートはミニサイズですが、丁度良いサイズかと思います。

I had participated in this tour before and it was so good that I signed up again this time. There's nothing we can do about the weather, so it can't be helped, but unfortunately, it was cloudy and it rained occasionally, making it very cold. Because of that, the photos taken at the sandbar didn't turn out great. However, it was wonderful to see a lot of fish and a few turtles while snorkeling, and the staff were very cheerful and kind. I definitely want to participate again in the summer.

以前も参加したことのあったツアーで、とても良かったので今回も申し込みました。天候のことはどうしようもないので仕方ないのですが、あいにくの曇り空で時々雨が降ったためとても寒かったです。そのためサンドバーで写真を撮ってもイマイチ。ただし、シュノーケリングでたくさんのお魚や数匹の亀を見られたのはとても良かったですし、スタッフの皆さんもすごく明るくて親切でした。次はやはり夏に参加したいです。

I was so moved to meet dolphins and sea turtles up close! I didn't expect to see so many dolphins. I was completely satisfied spending time surrounded by so many dolphins in the clear, beautiful sea. The instructor was kind and funny, making it the best time ever.
If you're prone to motion sickness, taking anti-nausea medication is a must.
When I go to Hawaii again, I want to use the scholarship program and enroll again! I look forward to it!

凄い近くでイルカや海亀に会えて感動しました！こんなに多くのイルカに会えるとは思っていませんでした。透き通った綺麗な海で、いっぱいのイルカにずっと囲まれて過ごせて大満足です。インストラクターの方も優しく面白く最高の時間を過ごすことができました。
酔いやすい方は酔い止め必須です。
またハワイへ行った際は奨学金制度を利用し、再度入学したいと思います\( ˆoˆ )/そのときはよろしくお願いします！！

We participated as a family, and it was fine even with kids! As soon as we got on the boat, we saw the dorsal fins of dolphins swimming, which really got us excited! When we jumped into the sea, we could hear the dolphins' ultrasonic sounds underwater! There were so many dolphins swimming around us, and they were so cute!

I was worried about having kids with us, but the staff took my child and said, "Look, Mom!" so I was able to see them safely. My older child was able to see them, but my younger child was crying because the life jacket was floating oddly, and just when they were getting used to the snorkel, the dolphins swam away, so it was disappointing not to see them underwater.

I thought we would see sea turtles afterward, but the sea was rough, and we were told it was closed, so we went to another spot, but we couldn't see any fish or turtles there, which was very disappointing.

I’m curious if there’s a guarantee for not seeing turtles since there is one for not seeing dolphins. Although we didn’t see the turtles, I think we were very lucky to have so many dolphins swimming so close to us, as there are days when they swim away quickly.

I read in reviews that everyone should take motion sickness medication, and there were quite a few people who got seasick, so I think it’s better to take it beforehand.

家族で参加しました。子供連れでも大丈夫でした！船に乗ってからすぐにイルカが泳いでいる背ビレが見えてテンションあがりました！
海にジャンプして入ると水中でイルカの超音波の音が聞こえました！
たくさんのイルカが回りをぐるぐる回って泳いでくれてとても可愛かったです！
子供連れで心配でしたが、スタッフの方がママ見てきて！と子供を連れて泳いでくれて無事に見ることが出来ました！上の子は見れましたが、下の子はライフジャケットが変に浮いて泣いてしまい、やっとシュノーケルに慣れてきたところでイルカは行ってしまい水中で見ることが出来ず残念でした。
その後海ガメが見れると思っていたら海が荒れてて閉鎖して行けないとの事で別のスポットに行きましたが魚も亀も見れず、そこはとても残念でした(;_;)
イルカが見れなかった時の保証はあるけど、亀が見れなかった時の保証はあるのか気になってます。
亀は見れなかったけどイルカはすぐに行ってしまう日もあるとのことで、沢山のイルカがこんなにも近くで泳いでくれてとてもラッキーだったとは思います。
口コミで見て酔い止めを全員飲んでいきました。酔っている方が結構居たので、酔い止めは飲んでいった方がいいと思います。

We participated as a family of seven, including my spouse, my sister-in-law, and four children. The sandbar had a water level up to our waists due to the tides, but we were able to see sea turtles, and the two older kids thoroughly enjoyed snorkeling. If you're looking forward to the sandbar, I recommend checking the low tide times and making a reservation accordingly.

I was concerned that the two younger children wouldn't enjoy themselves since they couldn't snorkel, but the crew was very kind and attentive to them. They helped with meals and allowed them to stand at the bow of the boat and sit down, which made for an enjoyable experience beyond the scheduled activities. Once the younger kids learn to swim, I would love to participate again.

夫婦、義理の妹、子供4人の家族7人で参加させていただきました。
サンドバーは潮の関係で腰程度の水位でしたが、ウミガメも見れ、シュノーケリングも上の子二人はしっかり楽しみました。
サンドバーを期待していくのであればしっかり干潮時間を調べて予約することをお勧めします。
また、年下の子供2人はシュノーケリングができないので楽しめないかもと思っていましたが、クルーの方々がとても親切でシュノーケリングができない年下の二人の子供たちの事も気にかけてくれて、食事の手伝いや船首に立たしてもらったり、座らせてもらったりしてスケジュールにない事で楽しめたようです。
下の子二人が泳げるようになったらまた参加したいと思います。

I participated early in the morning, but the guide's energy was so great that it blew away my sleepiness! It was wonderful to swim not only with dolphins but also with turtles. I want to join again!

朝早くからの参加でしたが、眠気を吹き飛ばすかのようなガイドさんのノリがとっても良かったです！！
イルカだけでなくカメも一緒に泳げてよかったです♪また参加したいです♡

I didn't dislike the ocean as much as I thought I would ( ｉ _ ｉ )
But the cast members were all amazing ♡
They really got everyone excited, and I had a great time!

海は思ったり嫌いではなかったです（ ｉ _ ｉ ）
でも、キャストさんがみんな最高♡
とっても盛り上げてくださり、本当に楽しかったです！

I visited in mid-November, but there was no sand visible at all, and the seawater was up to my knees. The BBQ felt more like just grilling meat on a boat rather than an actual BBQ experience. The snorkeling wasn't great either, as the water wasn't very clear, and I could only see nearby areas. The seas in Phuket and Japan were much clearer.

11月中旬に行きましたが、砂は全くみえず、膝上まで海水がありました。BBQ もただ船の上で肉を焼いているだけでBBQ という感じではありませんでした。
シュノーケリングもあまり海が綺麗ではなく、近くしか見えませんでした。プーケットや日本の海の方が綺麗でした。

This was my third time in Hawaii, but until now, I had only swum a little at Waikiki Beach, so this time I booked a snorkeling sailing tour. The check-in was right in front of the Outrigger Hotel beach, which was very easy to find. There were about 30 people in total (5 of them were Japanese). Previously, when I went to Okinawa, I heard there were turtles far away, but this time, they swam just about a meter in front of me. Also, I saw schools of tropical fish one after another, which was really great. It was a bit disappointing that there were many cloudy skies during this time.

ハワイは3回目でしたが、今までワイキキビーチでちょっと泳いだくらいしかなかったので今回はシュノーケル付きセーリングを予約してみました。アウトリガーホテルのビーチ前で受付でした。すごくわかりやすかったです。全員で30人くらい（日本人は5人）でした。以前、沖縄に行った時は遠くに亀がいるらしいで終わったのですが今回は１メートルくらい前を泳いでいました。あと熱帯魚らしい魚の群れが次から次と見えてとても良かったです。この時期曇り空が多くてちょっと残念でした。

I checked the low tide times and thought it would be impossible to participate, but the water was up to my waist and it was a bit cold. Fortunately, it was sunny, and the guide took some wonderful photos, so I have several picturesque shots. For lunch, we had freshly made hamburgers. They were warm and hearty, and eating them on the boat was very enjoyable. The snorkeling was a bit murky, but I was able to see many fish of various sizes. They came close because we fed them, which made for a great experience.

干潮の時間を調べて、時間的に無理だろうなーと思って参加していたのですが、腰まで水があって少し寒かったです。
ありがたい事に晴れており、ガイドさんが素敵な写真を撮ってくれたので絵になる写真が何枚も残っています。
ランチは出来たてのハンバーガーでした。温かくボリューミーで、船上で食べるととても美味しかったです。
シュノーケリングは少し水が濁っていたけど、大小の魚がたくさん見れました。餌をくれたので至近距離まで寄ってきてくれ、とてもいい経験ができました。

The sandbar was about waist-deep at its shallowest point.
For lunch, I had a hamburger, which I thought was better than McDonald's.
During the sea turtle watching cruise, I encountered a scene where 7 to 8 rays were swimming in a circle, but I could only see turtles swimming in the distance.
The impression I got was that all the staff on the boat were young and seemed to be enjoying their work.
They ask for tips when disembarking, so it's a good idea to bring some cash.

サンドバーは一番浅い所で股下くらいでした。
ランチはハンバーガーでマクドよりはおいしかったと思います。
ウミガメウオッチクルーズでは、エイが7～8匹が円を描くように泳ぐ場面
に遭遇できましたが、カメは遠くを泳いでいるのが見えた程度でした。
船のスタッフがみんな若くて楽しそうに仕事しているのが印象的でした。
下船時にチップを求められるので、少しは現金をもっていくと良いです。

It was just my husband and me participating on our honeymoon! On that day, the high waves made the boat rock quite a bit, and I ended up feeling pretty seasick, but my husband seemed fine! It was both of our first time snorkeling, but the clear explanations and high energy made us excited from the start!

Even with the high waves, there were plenty of dolphins! Unfortunately, we couldn't get too close, which was a bit disappointing...

Due to the high waves, it seemed that the usual snorkeling spot was closed, so we moved to a different location to start snorkeling!

There were no turtles or fish, and the waves were high, so I quickly got seasick and had to give up... I really wanted to see a sea turtle.

We were able to enjoy light snacks like spam rice balls, some snacks, and plenty of juice and water, which made dining in nature exceptional!

Even while I was feeling seasick, the staff would talk to us, which was reassuring. They said that on days when the milk is not visible, they keep looking for points where you can see dolphins until the end. Amazing!

I recommend bringing seasickness medication for those who are prone to it! It was a lot of fun!

ハネムーンで主人と私2人での参加でした！
この日は高波で船もグワングワン揺れて
私はかなり船酔いしてしまいましたが、
主人は大丈夫そうでした！
2人ともシュノーケリングは初めてでしたが、
わかりやすい説明と高めのテンションで
最初からワクワクさせてくれるような感じ！

高波でもイルカはたくさんいました！
ただあまり近づくことはできずに、そこは残念、、、。

高波のため、いつものシュノーケリングポイントがクローズしていたみたいで場所を移動してシュノーケリング開始！

亀もサカナもいなくて
波が高かったのですぐ酔ってしまい断念、、、。海ガメ会いたかったです。

軽食のスパムおにぎりと
ちょっとしたスナック菓子、ジュースやお水もたくさんいただけて自然の中で食事ができるのは格別です！

船酔い中もスタッフさんが話しかけてくれるので安心です。
ミルクが見えない日には諦めずに最後までいるかが見えるポイントを探すそうです。素晴らしい！

酔いやすい方には酔い止めを持参していくのをお勧めします！
とても楽しかったです！

The tour guide was Japanese, and they took photos for us and provided great service, so I recommend it! ( ^ω^ )

ツアーのガイドさんが日本人で、写真を撮ってくれたりサービスも良かったのでオススメです( ^ω^ )
