All Reviews for Snorkeling Cruises & Tours

Following the Haleakalā Mountain star and sunrise trek on Maui, I participated in an active tour at sea, a wild dolphin and sea turtle cruise with Dolphin University. Under a cloudy sky, we boarded the shuttle bus early in the morning. The tour group consisted of families spanning three generations, and one participant, Mr. I, mentioned he was joining for the third consecutive day.

As we headed to our destination, we received explanations from Ms. Y, who had a vibe reminiscent of Miwa from Dream Come True. By the time we arrived at the dock, the sky had cleared, and we enjoyed a light breakfast of warm malasada before boarding the boat, where everyone prayed for the safety of our voyage with the crew.

As we approached the secret spot of Dolphin University, the crew guided us to shallow waters, bringing along over 100 wild dolphins they had spotted. Securing our buoyancy with wetsuits and life jackets, we donned our snorkels and masks and jumped into the sea. I jumped in ahead of my wife, intending to reassure her, but I got distracted by the crew's calls to "look down!" and forgot about her as I peered into the water. The dolphins swam around us, brushing against our bodies through the wetsuits. Sharing the ocean with wild dolphins was an emotional experience. My wife was completely absorbed in the underwater world with our daughter.

Any fear vanished in the excitement of encountering the dolphins. We expressed our gratitude to the dolphins that played with us for a while before heading to the sea turtle spot. There, we were fortunate to encounter more than five sea turtles. Mr. I, who was skin diving, went down to the ocean floor, getting really close to the turtles. Additionally, we fed the fish underwater, and my wife was having so much fun that we worried she wouldn’t return to the boat. Afterward, everyone enjoyed various marine sports, and the crew's attentiveness ensured a safe experience for everyone, from children to seniors! After finishing our cheeseburger lunch on the boat, we began our journey back. We wrapped up with ukulele performances and commemorative photos before passing the baton to those starting their day slowly.

The tour with the prestigious Dolphin University was a great success, fitting for our 32nd wedding anniversary, as evidenced by the smiles of my wife and daughter! I definitely want my dolphin-loving younger daughter, who couldn’t join us due to work commitments, to experience the wild dolphins and sea turtle snorkeling cruise!

マウイ島でのハレアカラ山のスター＆サンライズトレックに引き続き、海でのアクティブなツアーとしてイルカ大学の野生のイルカ、海亀クルーズに参加です。曇り空の中、早朝から迎えのバスに乗り込みます。ツアーの方々は若い方から３代に見受けられる家族連れまでで、一緒に乗り込んだI
さんはなんと３日連続参加とのことです。
ドリカムの美和さん調のＹさんの説明を受けながら
目的地に向かいます。船着き場に着くころには晴天の空が広がり、温かなマサラダで軽い朝食を頂き、船に乗り込みクルーと一緒に全員で航海？の安全をお祈りします。
イルカ大学丸秘のスポットに近づくころにはクルーの目が探した１００頭以上の野生のイルカを引き連れて浅瀬に誘導します。ウエットスーツとライフジャケットで浮力を確保し
スノーケル＆水中眼鏡を装着し、足から海に飛び降ります。
妻の先に飛び降り、安心させる筈がクルーの下を見て！下を見て！という声に妻を忘れて海を覗き込みます。イルカの群れが泳ぎ回り、スエットスーツ越しに身体に当たってきます。野生のイルカと同じ海中を共有する体験は感動的です。妻は娘と一緒に海の中を我を忘れてのぞきこんでいます。
恐怖感はイルカとの遭遇の感動で消え去ったようです。
ツアーの方々の興奮する姿にも驚くことなく暫く一緒に遊んでくれたイルカに感謝しながら次は海亀スポットに向かいます。ここでも運良く５匹以上の海亀に遭遇することが出来ました。スキンダイビングのIさんは海の底まで潜り、海亀のホントの近寄っています。また、海中の魚達への餌やりもあり、いつまでたっても船に戻って来ずに心配するくらいに楽しんでいたのが妻です。その後は各自マリンスポーツを楽しみ、子供からシニアまで安心して体験出来るのはクルーの気配り・目配りがあるからですね！船上でのチーズバーガーランチを終え帰路に付きます。ウクレレの演奏や記念撮影を終えて、ゆっくりスタートの方々にバトンタッチです。
３２年目の結婚記念日にふさわしい名門イルカ大学のツアーは大成功なのは妻と娘の笑顔が証明しています♪
仕事の都合で旅行に来れなかったイルカ大好きな次女にも
必ず体験させてあげたい野生のイルカ＆ウミガメ　シュノーケリング・クルーズでした！

This was my fifth dolphin tour in Hawaii, but it was my first time enrolling in Dolphin University. Swimming with the dolphin instructors is truly enjoyable! No matter how many times I experience it, I am always moved! Fortunately, my family has great chemistry with the dolphin instructors, and we can always swim with large pods. Dolphin University, as expected from a prestigious institution, offers outstanding service! Starting with morning malasadas, we had a lot of fun with dolphins, honu (sea turtles), marine sports like paddleboarding and kayaking, and hamburgers on the boat—this was the most fun I've ever had! I plan to re-enroll in the prestigious Dolphin University next time! Thank you for the wonderful time. P.S. I received the group photo via email!

ハワイでのイルカツアーは今回で５度目ですが、イルカ大学に入学するのは初めてでした。
でも、イルカ先生たちと泳ぐのはホントに楽しい♪
何度体験しても感動できます！
幸い、私達家族はイルカ先生と相性が良く、毎回必ず大きな群れと一緒に泳ぐことができます。
イルカ大学さんは、さすが名門だけあってサービス満点！
朝のマラサダから始まって、イルカ、ホヌ（ウミガメ）、マリンスポーツのパドルボート・カヤック、船上でのハンバーガーなど盛りだくさんで今までで一番楽しかったです♪
次回もまた名門イルカ大学に再入学するつもりです！
楽しい時間をありがとうございました。
P.S集合写真のメール届きましたよ(*^-^*)

I had a lot of anxiety on my first overseas trip, but with Yuriko-sensei, a Japanese teacher at Dolphin University, I was able to confidently enter the water and swim, even though it was my first experience.

As soon as we got on the boat, we spotted dolphins swimming! After learning about the prayer ceremony and the rules, we quickly entered the sea. It was a bit cold in mid-March, so I rented a wetsuit for $10. It felt more like swimming above where the dolphins were rather than swimming with them. But it was incredibly exciting! We also swam in another spot where there were lots of small fish close enough to touch with our hands, and we did activities like kayaking.

The hula dance we all did at the end was the best memory of my time in Hawaii. I highly recommend you go!

初めての海外旅行で不安もたくさんありましたが、イルカ大学は日本人のゆりこ先生がいるので、初めての経験でも安心して海に入って泳ぐことができました。
船に乗ってすぐにイルカが泳いでいるのを発見！お祈りの儀式やルールを教えて頂いたら早々に海に入りました。３月中旬で若干寒かったので、10ドルでウェットスーツ(つなぎ)を借りました。イルカと泳ぐというよりは、イルカが泳いでいるところの上を泳いでいるという感じでした。でもかなり興奮します！別の場所(小さな魚が手で触れるほど近いとろこにたくさんいる所)で泳いだり、カヤックなどをしたりしました。最後に参加者のみんなで踊ったフラダンスはハワイでの最高の思い出です。是非行ってみてください！

Since it was March, it was a bit chilly. I recommend participating in this tour during warmer times. The water was cold, and we walked towards the sandbar while enduring it a little. If you’re not good with the cold, definitely bring a rash guard! When I participated, there was no beach, and I was about 20 centimeters submerged in water at the sandbar. So, if you’re aiming for a complete beach experience, it might be better to check the timing. As for snorkeling, I thought we would be doing it in shallow areas, but it was actually quite deep, which might be tough for first-timers, children, or those who aren’t strong swimmers. My mother, who was with me, said she was scared and watched from the board. However, while we were on the boat, we saw a manta ray and a sea turtle, which was very exciting! I heard that on lucky days, you can see both!

時期が３月という事もあり肌寒かったです。こちらのツアーは温かい時期に参加される事をオススメします。水も冷たく、少し我慢しながらサンドバーめがけてあるいていきました。寒いのが苦手な方はぜひラッシュガードを！私が参加したときは、砂浜はでてこず、サンドバーでも２０センチ位水につかっていました。なので、完全な砂浜を目的にしている方は時期を確認されていてからの方が良いかもしれませんね。シュノーケリングは、浅い所でやるのかと思いきや、結構深い所だったので、初めてシュノーケリングする方や子供さんや泳ぎが不得意という方には厳しいかもしれません。同行した母は、怖いといってボードで見ていました。でも、ボートで走っている途中では、マンタとウミガメが見れ、とても感激しました！運が良い日は両方見られるらしいですよ！

This time in Hawaii, we weren't blessed with good weather, as there was a storm with rain and wind right up until the day before the tour. On the day of the tour, when we left Honolulu, the weather was still bad, and I was worried. However, when we arrived at the location, it was cloudy but slightly sunny. Yay! The sandbar was a place I had wanted to visit for a long time, and I was really glad I finally got to go. It was a wonderful place.

Additionally, I want to express my gratitude to our driver, Frankie Sakai, who was very kind on the way there, and to Yumi, who was also very helpful on the way back. Our guide on the boat, Yuta, was full of energy and made the experience enjoyable.

My son and his wife haven't been to the sandbar, so I will definitely recommend it to them.

今回のハワイは天候に恵まれず、ツアーの前日まで雨・風のストーム。当日もホノルルを出発した時は天気が悪く心配しましたが、現地に着いた時は曇からやや晴れ気味。やったぜ。サンドバーは以前から行ってみたかったところ、今回実現して、やっぱり来てよかったと思いました。素晴らしいところでした。
それに行きのドラーバー・フランキーサカイさん、帰りのユミさんととても親切で感謝しています。また、船上のガイドのユウタ君もとても元気で楽しかったです。
息子夫婦もサンドバーには行ってないとのことなので、是非薦めておきます。

The ocean is beautiful, anyway. Unlike Waikiki Beach, you definitely should visit the white sandbar. However, it was windy and quite cold that day, so I refrained from snorkeling. But a sea turtle came really close, approaching the people who were snorkeling, as if it were swimming alongside them. I captured that moment from the boat, and it was an incredibly valuable experience that left me very impressed.

とにかく海が綺麗。ワイキキビーチとはまた違って、白いサンドバーには是非行ってみるべき。ただ、風もあり、しかもその日は寒かったので、シュノーケルは遠慮してしまいました。が、ウミガメが本当に近くまでやってきて、シュノーケル体験をしている人たちの所へ行き、まるで一緒に泳いでいるかのように目の前まで来てくれました。私はそれをボートの上から撮影しましたが、大変貴重な体験をする事ができ、大感激でした。

This is my fourth time participating. This time I joined alone. No matter how many times I participate, this tour is the best. The staff's service is excellent, and I can enjoy myself throughout. Swimming with wild dolphins, seeing sea turtles, eating hamburgers, and dancing the hula. It's very luxurious.

4回目の参加です。今回は1人で参加しました。何度参加してもこのツアーは最高です。スタッフの方の対応がとてもよく、終始楽しむことができます。野生のイルカと泳ぎ、海ガメを見て、ハンバーガー食べてフラダンスを踊る。とても贅沢です。

The sea was beautiful, the food was delicious, and the staff were fun, which was great. I thought it would be convenient to prepare a waterproof camera in advance (you can buy one there). It was disappointing that I could only see the turtles from a distance. I was able to see them up close when I went to the North Shore.

海もきれいで、ごはんもおいしくて、スタッフの方も楽しくてよかったです。あらかじめ防水用のカメラを用意しておくと便利かなと思いました。（中で買えます）
カメが意外と遠目に見るだけだったのが残念。ノースショアに行った時の方が間近にみれました。

I joined the tour hoping to swim with dolphins, but unfortunately, the weather was not favorable. The waves were high, and it rained occasionally, making it quite cold.

Fortunately, when we reached the dolphin point, we spotted a pod of wild dolphins, and cheers erupted on the boat. As we entered the water and approached the dolphins, they swiftly swam past us. The dolphins were so fast, and it was just a fleeting moment, but it was exhilarating! After confirming that everyone had seen the dolphins, we got back on the boat, and once again, we chased after them. The captain offered, "Shall we go in again?" but due to the cold, no one was eager to raise their hands.

After enjoying delicious cheeseburgers made by the captain, we went snorkeling. We spotted whales in the distance a few times during our journey, but unfortunately, I could only see their spouts.

Because of the high waves, we snorkeled at a point inside the breakwater near the port, but the water was cold and murky due to the rain, so we couldn't enjoy it fully. However, we did manage to see several types of fish, sea urchins, and a large school of slender fish that looked like saury.

After getting off the boat, we had a hula dance lesson at a park near the port. While staff member Yuka asked on the bus, "Shall we cancel because of the rain?" miraculously, the sky suddenly cleared. We wrapped pareos around our waists, adorned our heads and wrists with leis, and had a fun lesson under the guidance of the hula teacher. The music was played by a ukulele player who resembled Hiro from Yasuda Circus. There was also an explanation of hula tools, allowing us to experience Hawaiian culture.

The staff on today's tour were fantastic. Yuka, our caretaker, was charming and kind, with great attention to detail. Captain John was very generous, putting three lucky cheeseburgers on our plates. The two local boys were also a lot of fun. DJ Kekoa resembled Taka from Taka and Toshi, full of mischief, and was skilled at playing the ukulele and singing. The tall and young Patrick was an excellent dancer.

I would love to go back and meet them and the dolphins again on a sunny day.

For those participating, I recommend taking motion sickness medication.

イルカと泳げることを期待して参加したツアーですが、天候に恵まれず、波は高く、雨が時々降って寒かったです。

幸い、イルカポイントに達すると野生のイルカの群れを発見、船内に歓声があがりました。
海に入ってイルカの群れに近づくと、海中をイルカの群れがサーッと横切って行きました。
イルカのスピードが速くて、ほんの一瞬のことでしたが、感激！
全員がイルカを見られたことを確認して船に上がり、再び、船はイルカを追いかけました。
船長の「もう一度入る？」というオファーがありましたが、寒さのため、誰も積極的に手を上げません。

船長が作ったおいしいチーズバーガーをいただいた後はシュノーケリング。
寄港途中に何度かクジラが遠くに見えたようですが、残念ながら、私は潮吹きしか確認できませんでした。

波が高かったので、港近くの防波堤の内側のポイントでシュノーケルしましたが、水が冷たかったし、雨の影響で水が濁っていて十分に楽しめませんでした。
でも、何種類かの魚やウニ、サヨリみたいな細い魚の大群は確認できました。

船から降りた後、港そばの公園でフラダンス講習。
「雨なのでやめますか？」とバスの中でスタッフのゆかさんが問いかけている間に、不思議なことに突如青空に。
パレオを腰に巻き、頭と手首にレイをつけ、フラの先生の指導で楽しいレッスンです。
演奏は安田サーカスのヒロ君似のウクレレ。
フラの道具の説明もあり、ハワイアン・カルチャーにふれることができました。

今日のツアー、スタッフがとってもよかったです。
お世話係のゆかさんはとってもチャーミングでやさしく、気配り十分。
船長ジョンさんはチーズバーガーに当たりを3つ入れてくれるなどサービス精神たっぷり。
二人のロコボーイも楽しいです。
DJケコアはタカアンドトシのタカ似で、茶目っ気たっぷりでウクレレや歌も上手。
長身で若いパトリックはダンスがとっても上手。

天気のいい時にまた再び彼らとイルカに会いに行きたいです。

参加されるみなさん、酔い止め薬の服用をお勧めします。

The day started with heavy rain from the previous day, and it was still raining quite a bit on the day of the tour. The tour company even called to ask if we wanted to cancel, but we believed it would clear up and decided to go, and that was the right choice! As we were on the boat heading to the sandbar, the rain stopped, and for a brief moment, we even saw some sunshine! Many people canceled that day, so the tour had a small number of participants, which made it feel like a private experience, and we really enjoyed it. Standing in the middle of the ocean at the sandbar felt very strange and magical!

The barbecue on the boat was delicious, we spotted some turtles, and even though I was nervous about snorkeling for the first time, it was a lot of fun! The staff were all really nice and amazing! I highly recommend this tour!

この日は前日から激しい雨が降っていて当日もかなり雨が降っていてツアーの会社からもキャンセルするかの電話があったのですが、晴れることを信じてツアーに望んだんですが正解でした！船に乗ってサンドバーに向かっていると雨がやんで一瞬だったけど日差しも見えました！この日はキャンセルした人が多く、少数人数でのツアーだったので貸切状態でとっても満喫できました。サンドバーは海の中心に立っているみたいですごく不思議な感じがしますよ！
船の上のバーベキューもおいしかったし、カメも発見出来たし、初めてのシュノーケリングも緊張したけど楽しかったです！
スタッフの人達もみんないい人で最高です！
おススメのツアーです！

I was very moved.
I checked the time to see how shallow it would be, and it was about 10 cm deep, which was even more impressive!!!

However, it was during the rainy season, so I was disappointed that I couldn't see the blue sky and it was a bit chilly.

凄く感動しました。
浅くなる時間を確認して行ったので１０ｃｍないぐらいで
さらに感動！！！

ただ雨期の時期だったので青空が見えず
肌寒い中だったのが残念でした。

I participated on a cloudy day with lower temperatures. The rain from the previous day made the water visibility somewhat poor. Compared to a sunny day, I think the experience loses quite a bit of its charm. Still, it was enjoyable to see sea turtles and underwater fish. The experience of standing in the middle of the ocean was very precious. The explanations during snorkeling and the attention to safety were thorough, making it a tour that beginners can join with confidence. The meals were all delicious and served buffet-style, allowing us to choose what we liked. I requested a DVD, but the final product was not as good as I had hoped. It included several clips where my eyes were closed and others where people intruded, which left me feeling very disappointed, especially since I paid extra for it. I really wanted to preserve those important memories, so it's quite regrettable. While the weather is beyond anyone's control, I hope they can improve the quality of the photos. Overall, it was a very enjoyable tour.

曇り空で気温も低めの日に参加しました。
前日の雨で海の透明度がやや悪かったです。
晴れた日と比べてしまうと良さはかなり下がると思います。
それでもウミガメや水中の魚を見ることが出来たりと楽しい内容になっています。
海の真ん中に自分たちが立っているという体験はとても貴重なものでした。
シュノーケリングの時の説明や安全面への配慮もしっかりしていて
初心者の方でも安心して参加できるツアーだと思います。
食事は好きなものを自分で取る形でどれもすごくおいしかったです。
ＤＶＤをお願いしましたが出来上がりは期待していたよりもイマイチな出来でした。
目を閉じてしまっているものや他の人が入り込んだものも複数含まれていて
追加料金を出してまで頼んだのにこんなものかとすごく嫌な気分です。
大切な思い出をちゃんと残したかったのに残念でしかたありません。
天候はどうしようもできませんが写真はもう少しがんばって欲しいと思います。
全体的にはとても楽しいツアーでした。

I had never swum in deep water before... At first, I felt a lot of fear. But when I saw so many dolphins in front of me, I was very moved!! I never expected to hear the sounds of the dolphins (>_<) I think it was a wonderful experience☆

深い海で泳いだ事のなかった私…
最初はとても恐怖感がありました。
でも、たくさんのイルカを目の前にし、とても感動しました！！
イルカの鳴き声まで聞けるなんて思いもしませんでした(>_<)
とても良い経験が出来たと思います☆

The weather was cloudy, but walking on the sandbar felt great on my feet. I would like to go again on a sunny day to see the scenery and the sea turtles. *It would be nice if there was a discount for those who participated on a bad weather day for their next visit.

天候は曇りでしたが、サンドバーを歩いたら足の裏が気持ちよかった。
晴天の日に景色とウミガメを見にもう一度行きたいです。
＊天気の悪い日に参加した人が、次回参加の場合は割引があったらいいのではないでしょうか。

It has already been a year since I went (^ - ^)/ I was looking forward to it, but unfortunately, it was a cloudy day, which was a bit disappointing. I also ordered a DVD for an extra fee and had some photos taken＼(^o^)／ As we were taking pictures, the sun started to come out, and from that point on, it was really beautiful and moving! The difference when the sun is out is amazing! I was also happy to see a baby sea turtle up close while snorkeling! ♥

もう去年になりますが行ってきました(^-^)/
楽しみにしていたのですが、生憎の曇り空でちょっと残念でした。
別料金でDVDも頼み、写真も撮ってもらいました＼(^o^)／
とっていたら途中から晴れてきたので、そこからはとても綺麗で感動しました！やっぱり太陽の出によって全然違いますね！
シュノーケリングではウミガメの子どもも近くで見れて嬉しかったです&#9825;

Walking leisurely in the ocean!! A turtle is swimming leisurely and coming closer to me!! It's coming from the turtle's side... I'm just filled with excitement and surprise!

海の中で悠々と歩いて散歩!! 其処に此れも悠々と泳いで
いる亀ｻﾝが近付いてくるんですよ!!
亀ｻﾝの方からですよ･････感激と驚きしか無いよね

It was a very rare and enjoyable experience to be able to walk on the sandy beach in the middle of the ocean! Snorkeling was also amazing!

海の中央に砂浜があってそこで歩けるなんてとても貴重な体験で楽しかったです♪シュノーケルもできて最高でした！

I was able to see both, although just a little. Well, since it's a tour in nature, I suppose this is to be expected.
The snorkeling was cold, and I was shivering. The weather was bad from early morning, so I should have brought a rash guard. By the way, it was disappointing that I could only see fish and rocks!

The muffin for the light snack was delicious. I couldn't eat lunch because I got seasick. The staff kindly suggested that I could take it back and eat it at the center.

両方とも見れました。ちょっとやけど。まあ自然相手のツアーなのでこんなものかなと思います。
シュノーケリングは寒くて震えてました。当日は朝一から天候が悪かったのでラッシュを用意して行くべきでした。ちなみに魚と岩場しか見えなくて残念！！

軽食のマフィンがおいしかった。昼食は船酔いで食べれませんでした。係の人が持って帰ってセンターで食べてイイよって声をかけてくれました。

The weather was great, and I was able to see plenty of turtles and beautiful fish, which was really wonderful. The Japanese-speaking guide was also very accommodating, making for a pleasant tour. This time, I participated with my wife, but next time I would like to join with a larger group.

天候にも恵まれ、亀やきれいな魚もいっぱい見ることができすごく良かったです。日本語を話すガイドさんの対応も良く気持ちがよいツアーでした。今回は妻とふたりで参加しましたが、次回は大勢で参加してみたいです。

Many snorkeling tours go far from Waikiki, but this tour's appeal was its convenience of not having to travel far.

The first half was snorkeling off the coast of Waikiki, and the second half was cruising up to Diamond Head.

I was a bit worried since it was an English tour, but it turned out to be such a fun experience that I didn't mind at all.

Depending on the day, the meeting time is at 7:30 AM, and it finishes in the morning, allowing you to schedule other activities in the afternoon. (In fact, I went on a tour to Manoa Falls that departed at 1 PM.)

Also, they took a commemorative photo before boarding, but when I tried to pick it up after disembarking, they asked for $15. I didn't have cash on me, so I declined, but I recommend bringing money if you want a keepsake.

シュノーケリングのツアーはワイキキから車で遠いところに行くものが多いのですが、このツアーはワイキキから遠出しない手軽さが魅力でした。

前半はワイキキ沖でシュノーケリング、後半はダイヤモンドヘッド沖までクルージングという内容でした。

英語ツアーということで若干心配でしたが、そんなことは気にならなくなるぐらい楽しいツアーでした。

曜日にもよりますが、７時半集合で午前中に終わるので、午後に別の予定を入れることも可能です。
（実際、13時発のマノア滝のツアーに行きました。）

なお、乗船前に記念写真を撮ってもらったのですが、下船時に受け取ろうとしたら「15ドル」とのことでした。
僕は手持ちがなかったので断ったのですが、記念に欲しい方はお金を用意していかれることをおすすめします。

This is my seventh time in Hawaii, and I finally made it to the sandbar. Thank you, Izumi, for your help. It was amazing.

今回でハワイは７回目、やっとサンドバーに上陸出来ました。スタッフのいずみちゃんありがとう。最高でした。

The crew was excellent. They encouraged without pushing past your comfort zone.

For the first snorkel outting of our trip, this was a great way to get the ball rolling. Other than the long drive to get to the boat launch everything was smooth sailing. The crew was great and fun to travel with and were very knowledgable on the sites we visited. The trip to the sand bar was a treat. Only regret is we would love to have stayed at the reef longer.

Early winter in Hawaii.
It was a miracle just to swim with wild dolphins, and we even saw whales!
I think this tour will satisfy everyone, whether you're a beginner in Hawaii, a repeat visitor, a honeymooner, or a family.
If you're interested in Hawaii or dolphins, please consider joining!
The tour staff are all very kind, so you can participate with peace of mind.
I’ve definitely decided to repeat this experience.

初冬ハワイ。
野生のイルカと一緒に泳げただけでも奇跡なのに、
なんとクジラもみれたんです。
このツアーは、ハワイ初心者の方も、リピーターの方も、
ハネムーナー・ファミリーどんな方でも大満足して頂けるツアーだと思います。
ハワイやイルカに興味がある方、ぜひぜひ参加してみてください。
ツアーのスタッフさんも、とても優しい方ばかりで、安心して参加できますよ。
私はリピート決定です。

The sea was a beautiful cobalt blue. The children were very happy. The lunch on the cruiser was delicious. I definitely want to participate again on my next trip to Hawaii.

海はコバルトブルーですごくきれいでした。
子供も大変喜んでいました。
クルーザ上でのランチもおいしかったです。
次回のハワイでもぜひ参加したいと思います。

Only two groups (a total of four people) participated, so we had the hammocks to ourselves, which felt like a great deal. It might be due to winter, but the weather wasn't the best, and it was a bit chilly while sailing. However, the water wasn't as cold as I expected, and the sea was very clear, making snorkeling enjoyable. I knew from reviews that fins weren't provided, so I brought my own. Not only fins, but we were also allowed to bring our own food and drinks.

It seemed they scattered some bait before snorkeling, as there were plenty of fish. While there weren't many colorful fish, there were a lot of them, and I was really impressed when I first entered the water. Additionally, there were many sea turtles. They weren't at all wary when I approached, and I was able to swim alongside them for a little while.

Seeing Waikiki from offshore and watching the catamaran raise and lower its sails made for a great experience.

参加は二組（計４名)だけで、ハンモックの上を半分ずつ、貸切状態で、お得感がありました。
冬なので仕方ないかもしれませんが、お天気がいま一つで、セーリング中は少し寒かったです。
でも、思ったより水は冷たくなく、海の透明度も高く、シュノーケリングは楽しめました。体験談からフィンの貸し出しがないのがわかっていたので、自分でフィンを持参しました。フィンだけでなく、食べ物や飲み物も持ち込みＯＫでした。
シュノーケリング前に餌を撒いてくれたようで、魚がたくさんいました。カラフルな魚はいなかったのですが、とにかくいっぱいいて、初めに海に入った時は感動でした。
そして、海亀もたくさんいました。近寄ってもちっとも警戒せず、少しだけ一緒に泳げました。
ワイキキ沖からワイキキを見れて、カタマランの帆を張ったりしまったりも見れたので、良い体験ができました。

This time, I participated with ten friends, and the boat to Sandbar was separated for international guests and Japanese guests. The staff's service after boarding the boat was excellent. The hamburgers for lunch were, as expected in America, hearty and delicious. It's an attraction that can be enjoyed by groups, couples, and families alike. I will participate again!

今回は友人１０名で参加したのですが、サンンドバーに行くまでの船もインターナショナルと日本人で別れていたり、船に乗ってからのスタッフの対応は最高によかったです。昼食のハンバーガーもさすがアメリカ肉ボリューミーで美味しかったですね。グループでもカップルでもファミリーでも楽しめるアトラクションです。また参加しま~す。

An incredibly exciting class that made my nosebleed! The staff on board are all handsome veterans, so it's perfectly fine to rely on them! Everyone was kind and fun, and the time flew by!
If you're prone to feeling cold, a jacket is a must. If you're sleep-deprived, you might get seasick, so make sure to go to bed early the night before.
Of course, we had Dolphin Sensei, and we also met Turtle Sensei, and to top it off, we were lucky enough to see a whale at the end. I was able to ward off my bad luck!
With the beautiful sea and the dolphins, it really lifts your spirits.

鼻血が出る程大興奮の授業！船上のスタッフもイケメンベテラン揃いなので、思いっきり甘えてOK！皆やさしく楽しく対応してくれてあっという間でした！
寒いと思いやすい人は上着必須。寝不足だと酔いやすいので、前の日は早寝しましょう。
イルカ先生はもちろん海ガメ先生、そして虹にも向えられ、最後にクジラが見られる大ラッキーも。本厄払いできたぞ！
キレイな海にイルカたち。心が前向きになりますよ。

I took a bold step to take a vacation after 30 years of service and 20 years of marriage. It felt like we truly relaxed this time in Hawaii, which we hadn't visited since our honeymoon.

This tour was simply "healing."

From the moment we boarded the bus at the meeting point on January 31, we could feel the staff's consideration. During the ride, they talked about Hawaii's flora and the town's scenery, and before we knew it, we arrived at our destination.

The encounter rate with sea turtles was almost 100%.

What impressed me about this responsible tour company was their unwavering priority on "safety" in everything they did.

This is an extremely important point for participants.

Even as beginners, they constantly kept an eye on us. Especially during snorkeling, in addition to the guiding staff, there was a boat prepared, and one staff member was diligently watching over everyone's safety near the participants who were enjoying themselves.

Moreover, they implemented these safety measures discreetly without making a big deal out of it. We, as a mature couple, were keenly aware of it!

Thank you. Truly, thank you.

This became a memorable trip that we will never forget.

私が勤続３０年、結婚２０年ということで思い切って休暇をとってやってきました。
新婚旅行以来のハワイで、夫婦ともども今回は本当にゆっくりしたという感じでした。

特にこのツアーは「癒された」の一言。

１月３１日、集合場所でバスに乗った時からスタッフのお気遣いが感じられ、乗車中でもハワイの草花の話、町並みの話など、あっという間に現地に着きました。

ウミガメの遭遇率はほぼ１００％と言ってもいいのではないでしょうか。

それと、私が「さすが、責任あるツアー会社だな」と思ったことは、すべてにおいて”安全性を最優先している”という点。

これは参加者にとって極めて重要な点ですね。

初心者の私たちにも常に目配りを怠らず、特にシュノーケルの際には、案内のスタッフ以外にボートが一艘用意してあり、楽しんでいる参加者のそばで１名のスタッフがしっかり皆んなの安全を見守っていてくれたのです。

しかも、それをことさらアピールすることなく、さり気ない安全対策、私たち熟年？夫婦はしっかりと見ていましたよ！

ありがとう。本当にありがとう。

いつまでも忘れることのない記念旅行となりました。

The sea was very rough, and they worked hard to find dolphins. I got very seasick, so motion sickness medication is a must. It was quite cold during this time, and renting a wetsuit for $10 was essential. The staff were very kind, and I would like to participate again.

たまたま海が大荒れで、なかなかイルカが見つからず一生懸命探してくれました。船酔いが酷かったので、酔い止めは必須です。この時期はとても寒く、10ドルで借りれるウエアは必須でした。スタッフの方々がとても親切で、また参加したいと思います。
