All Reviews for Snorkeling Cruises & Tours

A short but beautiful sail to the reef, where we were greeted with half a dozen turtles, a ray and an eel. Stunning views of Waikiki and the crystal clear water on the catamaran. The crew was so amazing, eager to make it a good trip, and made the experience worth it.

まずは、ボートで数分走って、サンドバーを散歩しながら説明を聞いたり写真撮影などをします。
プライベートなので、人の少ない所に連れて行ってもらえるため、写真撮影では他の人が映らない景色をたくさん撮影することができました。そのあと、サンドバーの近くにあるシュノーケリングスポット(ちょうど水深が深くなるところ)に移動して、希望者はシュノーケルをしました。大きな魚がたくさんいました。
お腹がすいてきたので、船上でランチです。同じツアー会社の大人数を乗せる船も催行しており、そこで焼いたカルビやソーセージも頂き、最後は、ウォーターアクティビティーを楽しみました。３時間は長すぎるかと思いきやあっという間に楽しい時間が過ぎ去ってしまいましたが、非常によい思い出になりました。

昼食用のごはんや飲み物は、とっても美味しく満足のいく量があります。お酒を3缶持っていき、氷がたくさん入ったアイスボックスで冷やしてもらいもらえました。
シュノーケルセットは、透明度が高く海の中がくっきり見え、視力が弱くても海の中ではきれいに見えます。

6人いるなら絶対にプライベートボートがおすすめです。
さわやかで優しい日本人女性ガイドさんと、若々しく機転を利かせながらもてなしてくれるキャプテンの２名が、きめ細やかな対応をしてくださいました。写真もたくさん撮影してくださるし、子供のわがままにも応えてくれ(早く次に行きたい、あれがやりたいなど)ました。シュノーケルする前に、シュノーケリングの基本を教えてくださり、ガイドさんは常にライフセーバー用の浮き棒をもってシュノーケルのところまで一緒に来てくださるので、いつでも安心です。本当にどうもありがとうございました！

It was amazing to see the sea turtles. The BBQ lunch was also delicious.
There are morning and afternoon sessions, but I checked the tides in advance and chose the morning.

ウミガメにも会えて最高でした。BBQランチもおいしかったですよ。
午前と午後がありますが、前もって潮を調べて午前にしました。

Due to the tides and weather, the children were constantly floating, making it far from possible to walk on the sandy beach, which was disappointing. The tour program and the atmosphere with the attendants were good.

潮と天候の影響か、子供は常に浮いてる状態で、砂浜を歩くにはほど遠くて残念でした。
ツアーのプログラムやアテンドさん達の雰囲気は良かったです。

The scenery was amazing, but at this time of year, there are jellyfish, and about 5 or 6 people got stung. Of course, even on the bus during the transfer, I think it's important to inform people about the dangers more than before, as it can be dangerous! Children got stung more than adults, which is scary!

景色は最高でしたが、今の時期はクラゲがいて、5.,.6人ほど刺されました。
移動のバスの中も勿論のことツアー案内から、やはり危険は、以前より知らせないと、危ないと思いますよ！大人以上に子供も刺されましたが、怖いですよねー！

The morning was early, but I had a wonderful experience!! The sunrise was from the ocean. The water level was unexpectedly up to my waist, but personally, it didn't bother me at all. I was very satisfied with the service from the captain and crew. It was a great experience. I will use this service again!!

朝は早かったけれど、とても素晴らしい経験が出来ました！！
日の出は、海の中から。
予想外に腰までの水位でしたが、個人的には全く気にならず。
キャプテンやクルーのサービスに大満足。
とてもいい経験が出来ました。
また利用します！！

I have seen sea turtles several times before, but this time I was able to get so close that it felt like I was about to bump into one, and it was very exciting.

It was quite rare for Waikiki, which is usually full of Japanese people, to have no other Japanese participants or staff besides my family, and that atmosphere felt very refreshing.

これまでも何度か海ガメを見たことはありますが、今回はぶつかりそうなくらいに近くまで接近することが出来て、とてもエキサイティングでした。

日本人だらけのワイキキにしては珍しく、我家以外に日本人の参加者やスタッフがおらず、その雰囲気がとても新鮮でした。

Due to the season, we didn't see any sandbars like those on TV, but the service was sufficient and good. The food was more to our liking than that of the famous tours, and the kids ate a lot.

季節柄、テレビに出てくるようなサンドバーは見られませんでしたが、必要十分なサービスで良かったです。
ご飯も有名ツアーのものより我が家は好みで子供達も沢山食べていました。

I had heard that there were few Japanese people on this experience, and there were none besides us during our time. All the announcements were in English, so there were many moments when my husband and I, with our limited English skills, didn't quite understand what was being said. However, as long as you go with the flow of those around you, you'll be fine. They also respond casually to questions, even if you ask in broken English.

Before departure, they showed us a board written in Japanese that included information about drinks, safety on the boat, and tips.

For those with experience, it was okay to take off the life jackets, so we dove in without wearing them (they are mandatory in emergencies and are provided to everyone). They also lent fins for free to everyone. Life jackets and masks were distributed on the boat, and just before entering the water, they applied anti-fog solution to the masks and handed us the fins. However, the fins were a bit large since the sizes were quite general.

The depth of the sea was probably around 10 to 15 meters, and we got to see sea turtles! (There were several of them.) The fish we saw were black and a bit striped, so I wouldn't expect a colorful variety.

When we came up once, there were already people on the boat drinking alcohol. When we tried to go back into the sea, they kindly informed us that we had about five minutes left, saying, "This is the last chance!" (of course, in English).

At the end, there were people enjoying jumping off the boat. It was heartwarming to see everyone cheering and laughing as the kids jumped in.

I thought we would head back right away, but instead, we sailed further before returning, enjoying nearly an hour of sailing. It was quite rocky, so I would recommend taking motion sickness medication. The foreigners seemed to have a strong image, but some were looking quite exhausted. Of course, there were also some strong ones who were drinking heavily!

The payment for drinks was on a self-report basis after returning to the sandy beach. At that time, we put tips in a box, and the captain rang a bell and expressed his gratitude.

There were many small children, so it seems like families can enjoy this as well. The boat also had a restroom.

こちらの体験談で、日本人が少ないと聞いていましたが、私たちの時も日本人は他にいませんでした。
案内も全て英語でしたので、英語力の乏しい私たち夫婦には途中のアナウンスがよく分からない場面も多々ありました笑
でも周りの人たちに合わせていれば大丈夫です。また、拙い英語で質問しても気軽に答えてくれます。
出発前には日本語で書かれたボードを1枚見せてくれました。(飲み物や船上での注意、チップについてなどが書かれていました)

ライフジャケットは、経験のある人は外してもokでしたので、着用せずに潜りました。(緊急時は必須とのことで、全員に配られます)
またフィンも全員無料で貸してくれました。
船上でライフジャケットとマスクが配られ、海に入る直前に、マスクに曇り止めを付けてもらい、フィンを受け取ってGOです。ただ、フィンはサイズがザックリしているので、少し大きかったです。
海の深さは恐らく10〜15m位の所で、ウミガメにも会えました！(しかも何匹もいました)魚は、黒い魚と少しシマシマ模様の魚、という感じです。カラフルな感じは期待できないかと。

途中一度上がると、船では既にお酒を飲んでいる人たちも。再度海に入ろうとすると、丁寧にあと5分くらいで終わりだからラストね！と声をかけてくれました(もちろん英語ですが)

最後は、船からの飛び込みを楽しむ人たちも。子どもが飛び込むのをみんなで、笑いながら応援していて微笑ましかったです。

そのあとすぐ帰るのかと思いきや、もっと奥まで船を進めてから戻るコースで、1時間近くセーリングを楽しめました。結構波に揺られるので、酔い止めは必須かと。外国人の方は勝手に強いイメージでしたが、何人かグッタリしていました。もちろん、がんがんお酒を飲みまくる強者も笑

飲み物の精算は、砂浜に帰ってから船上で申告制でした。その時にboxの中へチップを。入れると船長がベルを鳴らして感謝の言葉を言ってくれていました。

小さい子どもも沢山いたので、家族連れでも楽しめそうです。船にはトイレも付いていました。

This was the most beautiful place ever. The kids really enjoyed the snorkelling here, lots of beautiful fish to see. The online booking process was simple and price was very affordable. Our driver was friendly and explained how to use the equipment. Pickup and drop off was on time. Highly recommend! Will be back to do this again!

This was my second experience at the sandbar. This time, I went with a different tour company. It's called the Angel Sea Tour, but the person calling out at the meeting point wasn't very good at Japanese, so be sure to remember "Captain Bob Tours" as well!

The sandbar itself has territories depending on the tour company, so it's hard to say, but unfortunately, there was still water up to my knees this time. It's understandable given the weather, season, and lunar phases.

The flow was the same as the previous tour with another company: heading from the port to the sandbar → playing at the sandbar → lunch → snorkeling. There were two buses and two boats. One boat was just for Japanese people, while the other had a mix of Japanese and international guests (laughs). There were about 100 people in total.

The Angel Sea Tour offers:
- BBQ lunch that is incredibly delicious! They grill hamburgers on the boat!
- The tour guide is great at getting everyone excited and entertained.
They provide activities like beach volleyball at the sandbar.
- They don’t do annoying things like taking photos and selling them! (laughs)
- I encountered a giant sea turtle while snorkeling!

So, I highly recommend this tour!

サンドバーは2度目の体験。前回とは違うツアー会社でした。天使の海ツアーとなっていますが、集合場所での呼び出しは日本語があまり得意でない方でしたので、「キャプテンボブツアー」とも是非覚えておきましょう！
サンドバー自体はツアー会社によってのテリトリーがあるので、なんともいえないですが、残念ながら今回も膝下くらいまで水がありました。天候や季節、月の満ち欠けの影響があるので仕方ないですね。
流れは前回の他社のツアーとも同じく、港からサンドバーへ向かう→サンドバーで遊ぶ→ランチ→シュノーケリングの構成でした。
バス2台分、船は2隻。1隻は日本人だけ、もう一隻は半分日本人＋多国籍軍でした（笑）全体で100名くらいでしょうか。
天使の海ツアーは、
・BBQランチがめちゃくちゃおいしい！船の上でハンバーグ焼いてます！
・添乗員さんが盛り上げ上手！楽しませてくれます
　サンドバーではビーチバレーなど用意してくれています
・写真撮影して販売する・・など、うっとおしいことしません！笑
・シュノーケリングで巨大ウミガメに遭遇！
ということで、おすすめツアーです！

It seems I was unlucky that day and couldn't swim with the dolphins... But I spotted three from the boat! On the way to the harbor, our guide Julie kept talking, and it was fun! I learned a lot about Oahu. I feel like giving it five stars, but since I couldn't swim with them, I'll give it four stars in hopes for the next time! I'll participate again! ( ˆoˆ )

この日は運が悪かったみたいで、イルカ先生と泳ぐことはできず…。でも船の上から3頭見つけました！
ハーバーに向かう途中、ガイドのジュリさんがずーっとお話してくれていて、楽しかったです！オアフ島の事すごく勉強になりました。
気持ち的には星5つですが、一緒に泳げなかったので次への期待を込めて星4つ！
また参加します( ˆoˆ )

I couldn't see many dolphins, but all the staff were bright and fun, making for an enjoyable time. My preschooler was reluctant to snorkel and wanted to stay on the boat, but a staff member picked her up and took her into the water. Although she couldn't snorkel, she had a great time singing while swaying with the waves. I'm very grateful to the staff who tried to entertain the whole family.

イルカはたくさんはみることができませんでしたが、スタッフの皆さんが明るく、楽しい方ばかりで楽しい時間が過ごせました。幼稚園の子供がシュノーケルを嫌がり船に残ろうとしましたが、スタッフのお姉さんが抱きかかえて海に連れて行ってくれました。シュノーケルはできなかったものの、波に揺られながら歌を歌って楽しませてくれて娘もとても楽しく過ごせました。家族全員を楽しませてくれようとしたスタッフさん達に感謝でいっぱいです。

This was amazing, I would recommend it to everyone who wants to snorkel with turtles. Not to mention the crew was amazing and very funny. Then we sailed to try to see dolphins and other marine life.

Due to the high waves, most participants, including my family, experienced seasickness, and the Aloha buckets were in high demand everywhere. We couldn't even see the dolphins underwater.

The onboard lunch and marine sports were canceled, and we had to endure three hours on a rocking boat, returning on the bus while eating the Burger King hamburgers that were supposed to be served on the boat.

It's important to be cautious, as depending on the weather and wave conditions, there is a significant risk of disappointment and wasting a lot of money. If the weather had been good, it might have been a much more moving experience.

I felt that they continued the tour even with relatively large waves, possibly because they had the boat and crew secured. It's better not to join too easily just because you want to swim with dolphins.

波の高い中での催行で、私の家族も含め参加者のほとんどは船酔い状態でアロハバケツがあちこちで大活躍するハメに。イルカを水中で見ることも叶わず。
船上ランチやマリンスポーツも中止となり、大揺れの船上で3時間耐える羽目になり、帰りのバスで本来船上で提供されるはずだったバーガーキングのハンバーガーを食べながら帰ることに。
天候や波の状態次第では大きく期待外れ＆大金を捨てる可能性があるので注意が必要です。天気さえ良ければ大きな感動があったかも。
船やクルーをおさえているからか、ある程度の大きな波でも中止にはせず催行となるのかと感じました。イルカと泳ぎたいからと安易に参加しないほうがベター。

I was excited to swim with dolphins in Hawaii for the first time, but at first, the dolphins were jumping around a lot, which raised my expectations. However, when I actually got into the water, the dolphins disappeared, and we moved to the next spot. I managed to see one dolphin, but I was disappointed that I couldn't see the many dolphins I had imagined. The waves were high, and both the boat and the water were rocking, which made me seasick. At first, the sea turtles blended in with the rocks, and I couldn't find them, but I did see about three small ones. The water clarity was a bit murky, and compared to when I went diving in Okinawa, it was somewhat disappointing. However, I appreciated how the crew was bright and worked hard to make the tour enjoyable.

初めてのﾊﾜｲでイルカと泳げるとわくわくしていましたが、最初はイルカたちがたくさん飛び跳ねていて期待していたのですが、いざ海へ入ってみるとイルカたちがいなくなってしまい、次のポイントへ。なんとか１匹ほどみれましたが、ｲﾒｰｼﾞしていたたくさんのイルカをみることができず残念でした。また波が高く船でも海に入ってもゆれて、船酔いしてしまいました。ウミガメも最初、岩と同化していてどこにいるかわからず、小さいかめが３匹ほどみれました。海の透明度もちょっとにごっていて、以前沖縄でダイビングしたときと比べるとちょっと残念でした。ただクルーの方たちが明るく一生懸命ツアーを盛り上げてくれている様子がわかりありがたかったです。

I had a great time. After the tour, I was often asked for tips, but this tour not only provided a lot of fun but also offered free photos to upload on Facebook! Finally, in the car that took me back to the hotel, they shared various interesting stories without asking for any tips at all. It's a really good tour company.

とても楽しかったです
結構ツアー参加後に、チップを要求されることが多かったのですが、このツアーはいっぱい楽しませた上に、写真まで無料にfacebookにアップしてくれます！最後に、ホテルまで送ってくれた車の中で、いろんな面白い話をしてくれながら、チップを一切要求しませんでした。
とてもいいツアー会社です

The driver tried to separate our seats, which had two participants. It seemed like they wanted to put their luggage in the front seat? This was our second time, but the lunch was of lower quality compared to last time, and it wasn't BBQ! The biggest disappointment was that we had to snorkel in a line. I think they should advertise it as suitable for beginners. I don't think I'll participate next time.

ドライバーが2人参加の私達の席を別々に座らせようとしました。自分の荷物を前席に置きたいらしく？
今回は2回目でしたが、前回よりランチもランクダウン、BBQ?ではなかった！そして一番の残念は並んでスノーケリングしなければならなかった事。初級者用と宣伝した方が良いと思います。今度は参加しないと思います。

The catamaran was amazing. One of the highlights of our trip to Hawaii. The crew were very friendly and seeing the turtles was amazing. Definitely a must do if we ever come back to Hawaii I will do it again

I was able to fully enjoy Kailua Town, Kailua Beach, and Lanikai Beach all at once. It was great that I could bike around. The Bob's Pizza I had with the lunch voucher was also very delicious. I had plenty of time and was very satisfied!

カイルアタウン、カイルアビーチ、ラニカイビーチと一度に全てを満喫できました。自転車を使って行き来できたのもとても良かったです。ランチ券でいただいたボブズピッザもとても美味しかったです(^^)
時間もたっぷりあってとっても満足できました〜

It was really cold on the boat.
We were able to see dolphins and turtles.
The attendant was nice, which was great.

船の上は、めちゃ寒かったです。
イルカもカメも見れました。
お姉さんのアテンドもナイス、良かったです。

This was my first dolphin watching experience after turning 50! I was worried about my stamina, but it turned out to be unnecessary. The boat captain and crew were all very nice, making it a fantastic experience. For those who will be experiencing this in the future, make sure to take measures against seasickness.

50才を越えて、初のイルカウォッチング！
体力に心配がありましたが、取り越し苦労でした。
ボートキャプテンやクルーの皆さんがとても良い人達で最高の経験でした。
これから体験する方は、船酔い対策はしっかりとして下さい。

Saki was amazing! I had so much fun!
I was able to swim with dolphins and sea turtles, the ocean was beautiful, and it was a wonderful experience!
I apologize for getting stung by a jellyfish, but thank you for taking care of it right away and for your concern; it healed quickly thanks to you! I will participate again!!!

Sakiさん最高でした！とても楽しかったです！
イルカともウミガメとも泳ぐことができて、海も綺麗で、素晴らしい体験ができました！
クラゲに刺されてしまってご迷惑をおかけ致しましたすぐに処置してくれて、心配もしてくれてありがとうございましたおかげですぐに治りました！また、参加します！！！

The boat was easy to find right on the beach, the experience overall was great, the captain was nice as well as the crew.
I would definitely recommend this turtle snorkel to everyone.

I was very happy to meet dolphins and, above all, to see the gracefully swimming sea turtles.

It was my first time scuba diving, and on top of seasickness, the tightness of the suit and life jacket was tough to handle.

It would have been easier if I could take it off, but I thought I couldn't go into the water without it, so I got out early, which was disappointing. I wanted to play a little longer, even if it meant getting sick.

The staff were considerate, and it was reassuring to have a good number of people around. The dance was fun!

イルカにも逢え、何よりも優雅に泳ぐ亀仙人に逢えとても幸せ

スキューバーは初めてで、船酔いのうえにスーツと救命胴衣の窮屈さがしんどかった

脱いだら楽になる状態、でも着てないと海に入っちゃ行けないだろうと早々に上がったのは残念。吐いてでももう少し遊びたかった

スタッフさんも気遣いや、人数いて安心でした。ダンス楽しかったです

During the Obon season, there were a lot of people, and there were some unexpected incidents from the start, but we managed to board the boat and set sail.

My husband and I were a bit nervous about getting into the sea after a long time, but the staff were kind and made it fun, so we felt comfortable participating.

There were about 5 to 6 people who felt sick from seasickness, so I think it's better to have a light breakfast and definitely take motion sickness medication.

Masks, snorkels, and fins are provided, so you can participate in your swimsuit and sandals. Marine shoes are not necessary. We wore long-sleeve rash guards and leggings, so we didn't need wetsuits.

The coldest part was when we were on the boat and exposed to the wind, so it's better to have something warm to wear. There were several people shivering.

It was disappointing that we couldn't do activities like stand-up paddleboarding due to the strong wind, but on the plus side, we got to see a lot of dolphins, which was great.

I definitely want to participate again. Thank you very much.

お盆の時期だけに人が多く、集合時から何やらアクシデントでドタバタしてましたが、なんとか船に乗って出航できました。
旦那と2人 久しぶりに海に入るとあって最初は緊張気味でしたが、スタッフの方も優しく、楽しく盛り上げてくださって、安心して参加できました。
中には船酔いで気分が悪くなっている方も5〜6人いたので 、朝ごはんは少なめに、酔い止めは必ず飲んでおいた方が良いと思います。
マスク、シュノーケル、フィンは付いているので
水着にサンダルで参加できます。
マリンシューズは不要でした。
私たちは長袖ラッシュガードにレギンス着用なのでウェットスーツは不要でした。
船に上がってからボートで風にあたっているときが一番寒かったので、暖かい羽織りものがあった方がいいです。
ガタガタ震えている人が何人もいたので。
風が強くて、スタンダップパドル等のアクティビティができながったのは残念でしたが
その分イルカたちにはたくさん会えたので良かったです。
ぜひまた参加したいです。
ありがとうございました。

We gathered at 5:50 AM and received explanations about important points during the bus ride to the port. I was really excited to hear that the chance of seeing dolphins was over 90%, and as we got off the bus and headed towards the boat, we encountered a sea turtle right away! I didn't see any dolphins at the first spot, but I was able to see several at the second spot! During snorkeling, I saw many beautiful fish and sea turtles. Not everyone was able to participate in the marine sports, which was one of the main reasons I joined this tour, so I was really disappointed that I couldn't take part. The staff on the boat were all very nice, and I had a really enjoyable day.

If I could suggest two areas for improvement:
The first is regarding the boat's restrooms. Both were broken, and it was cold and uncomfortable to have to hold it in.
The second is that I received an email meant for participants on a different day, which was mistakenly sent to me (it was from another instructor). I pointed this out in an email, but I didn't receive a response, and then I got a second incorrect email. Since it contained a photo of me, I hope they will be more careful with personal information.

朝5:50集合で、港までのバスの中では注意事項などの説明を受けました。
イルカが観れる確率は90%以上ということでとってもワクワクしていると、車を降りて船に向かう道で早速ウミガメに出会いました！
イルカのポイント１つ目では私は見れなかったのですが、２つ目のスポットでイルカを何頭か観れました！
シュノーケリングでは綺麗な魚やウミガメがたくさん観れました。
マリンスポーツは全員ができるわけではありませんでした。こちらのツアーに参加した大きな目的のひとつだったので参加できなくてすごく残念でした。
船のスタッフさん達は全員が良い人でとても楽しい１日を過ごすことができました。

改善してほしい点を２つ挙げると
１つ目は船のお手洗いについてです。２つとも壊れていて、お手洗いを我慢しなきゃいけなかったのが寒くて辛かったです。
２つ目は、後日、別の日の参加者宛のメールが誤送信されてきました。(他のインストラクターからでした。)間違ったのかと思い指摘のメールをしたのですが、そちらには返事が来ず、その後2回目の誤ったメールがきました。顔写真が載っていたので、個人情報の扱いには注意してほしいと思います。

I was really interested in the Angel's Sea experience, so I decided to participate. After checking reviews, magazines, and online information, I learned that the tide is better in the early morning, so I joined the morning session. When I woke up, the weather was clear, and I was excited as I was taken to the boat dock, but the weather started to look a bit suspicious. It didn't seem like it would rain, but there were quite a few clouds. Despite the situation, we boarded the boat and set sail for the spot! The Japanese guide (female) who was with us in the shuttle and on the boat provided very clear explanations and kept everyone entertained with her bright energy.

First, we stopped the boat at a spot where turtles are known to appear for some watching. Although they didn't come right in front of us, we did see quite a few turtles. Everyone was excited and taking photos. Next, we headed to the sandbar. As I mentioned earlier, there were many clouds, so it felt a bit chilly when we arrived at the sandbar! I was disappointed because I had relied on the information for the morning session, but the tide was not very low, only about waist-deep. The water level was lower than expected, around ankle-deep, and without any sunshine, it felt cold and a bit murky. Because of this, the snorkeling experience was less enjoyable.

It seems that the timing might have been off, or perhaps the volcanic activity on the Big Island affected the weather, causing many clouds and a whitish appearance around us. There were mountains where Jurassic World was filmed, and I couldn't help but think how beautiful it would have been if the weather had been clear! I was filled with regret, imagining the stunning scenery like in the experience photos. This time, we had a light meal with sandwiches, which were quite tasty. Drinks like cola, Sprite, tea, and other beverages were available for free.

For those who will participate in the future, I can only say that if you're lucky enough to have clear weather, you will have an amazing time! Locals also mentioned that the early morning is better for the tide, so it might be a good idea to choose the morning session. All we can do is hope for good weather. I hope to join again someday in perfect sunny conditions.

天使の海すごく興味が有り参加しました。口コミ情報や雑誌やネットなどの説明を見て朝早い方が潮引きが良いと知り朝早い時間帯で参加しました。朝起きてかなりの晴天でワクワクしながら船乗りばまで送迎してもらうなかなんだか天気が怪しい感じ。雨は降りそうもないけど雲がかなり多くなってきた。状況が変わらず船に乗りスポットまで出航！送迎車から船の中もずっと一緒に乗っていた日本人(女性)のガイドさんは、とても分かりやすい説明に非常に明るいテンションでみんなを楽しく和ませていました。まず亀の出るスポットで船のエンジンを止めてウォッチング。本当の目の前には現れなかったものの、結構亀が出現しました。みんな興奮して写真を撮っていました。次にサンドバーに向かいました。最初にも言ったように雲が多かったのでちょっと肌寒い感じの中サンドバーに到着！しっかり情報をあてにして朝の参加にしたのに残念。潮引きがあまく腰位迄の深さでした。足首程度の水位の期待が外れて晴れ間がないから寒いし少し濁って見える感じでした。なのでシュノーケルも楽しさが半減でした。時期が悪かったのかハワイ島の噴火の影響で風に流れて雲が多く辺りが白っぽい感じになってしまっているそうです。ジェラシックワールドの撮影された山があったりで、これが晴天だったらどんなに綺麗なんだろう！体験談の写真にのような素晴らしい景色なんだろうと悔やんでしょうがない気持ちでいっぱいでした。今回は軽食付きでサンドイッチを頂きました。普通に美味しかったです。ドリンクはコーラ、スプライト、紅茶、お茶などが飲み放題でした。これから参加する方には運良く晴天でであれば最高な時間を過ごせるよ！としか言えません。現地の方に聞いても朝早い方が潮引きが良いと言っていましたので、朝早い方便を選んだ方が良いかもしれません。天気は願うしかありません。いつかまた最高の晴天で参加したいです。

I found this tour while searching for relaxing activities to join in the afternoon just before my trip. The two-and-a-half-hour tour allowed us to snorkel off the coast of Waikiki, and we could also enjoy the beautiful views of Waikiki while on the boat—it was fantastic! We were able to see sea turtles and tropical fish without having to travel far, which was very moving. I often have so many things I want to do that my schedule becomes hectic, and I thought I might have to give up on snorkeling, but this tour offers plenty of opportunities to enjoy the ocean. It's also great for families! There were many other foreign participants, so we could all have a fun time together!

午後からゆっくり参加できるアクティビティを旅行直前まで探していた時にみつけたツアーでした。ワイキキ沖でシュノーケリングができ、しかも船に乗りながらゆっくりとワイキキの景色も堪能できる２時間半のツアーは最高でした！時間かけて遠くまで行かなくてもウミガメや熱帯魚も見れてとても感動♪いつもやりたいことが多くて、ハードスケジュールになる為、シュノーケリングを諦めないといけないかなぁと思っていましたがこちらのツアーは充分に海を楽しめる内容です。家族連れの方にも楽しめます！他の外国人の方もたくさん参加されていましたのでみんなでワイワイ楽しく過ごせます！

It was Amazing and terrifying at the same time! I'd do it again.
