Oahu
I joined to see dolphins. The tour was amazing as I got to see the beautiful scenery of the West Coast and meet dolphins. The staff's service was also wonderful, and I had a great time. Thank you very much.
イルカを見たくて参加しました。
西海岸のきれいな景色を見て、さらにイルカにも会えて、最高なツアーでした。
スタッフの方の対応もすばらしく、とても楽しめました。
ありがとうございました。
It was a great tour! I would recommend it to everyone!
I participated with a friend.
First, the hula instructor teaches in a fun way. They also lend you props, so even those who are not feeling motivated will get excited (laughs).
Next, we went to the sea to meet dolphins! Although the time we spent swimming together was short, we were able to swim with dolphins and turtles! Even if you don't encounter dolphins, I think it's a tour that can still be enjoyed thanks to the various performances by the staff on the boat (including dance and jokes).
I definitely want to participate again♪
By the way, it gets quite cold after swimming, so don't forget to bring a jacket!!
友人と2人で参加しました。
最初にフラ、フラの先生が楽しく教えてくれます。
小道具も貸してもらえるので、気乗りがしない人でもテンションがあがりますよ(笑
次にイルカに会いに海へ!
間近で一緒に泳げた時間は少なかったのですが、イルカ&亀と泳ぐが出来ました!
最悪イルカと遭遇出来なくても、船上スタッフのいろいろなパフォーマンス(ダンスあり、ギャグあり)があるので、それなりに楽しめるツアーだと思います。
是非、また参加したいです♪
ちなみに、泳いだ後はかなり寒いので上着を忘れずに!!
This was one of the best activities one could imagine to do..well worth the cost..everyone enjoyed themselves...we could snorkle or use the "BOB"...staff was very knowledgeable and friendly. A must do activity for everyone...even a novice can do it...for all ages. My friend who isn't a great swimmer and never snorkled before enjoyed himself immensly...excellent !!!
I participated in the early morning plan.
The tour included sea turtle watching, a sandbar, and snorkeling, all packed into the morning, and I had a great time. While I think it would be nice to spend a leisurely time at the sandbar in Kaneohe Bay, this plan was perfect for us since we wanted to go shopping in the afternoon!
When we arrived at the sea turtle point, everyone searched for the turtles together. The crew and captain were quick to spot them. Although we couldn't see them up close, we were desperately trying to find the turtles popping their heads up here and there. It was so much fun! On this day, we also encountered three manta rays swimming in circles. According to the guide, it's quite rare to see manta rays. Lucky us♪
Unfortunately, the sandbar wasn't visible, but I was able to experience the thrill of standing in the middle of the ocean! The guide instructed us on various poses and took photos in order. Thank you! The views of both the ocean and the mountains were absolutely stunning and picturesque.
Finally, we went snorkeling! There was a snorkeling spot right next to the sandbar where we could see many yellow fish. The explanations were thorough, so I felt at ease. Even if I got scared, it was close enough to quickly return to the sandbar.
I was very satisfied to be able to see such beautiful scenery just half a day away from Waikiki!☆
早朝プランに参加しました。
ウミガメウォッチ、サンドバー、シュノーケルと午前中だけのツアーですが盛りだくさんで、
とっても楽しむことができました。
ゆっくり、サンドバーのあるカネオヘ湾で過ごすのもいいと思いますが、
午後からはショッピングに行きたかった私達にはピッタリのプランでした!!
ウミガメポイントに着いたらみんなでカメさん探します。
クルーやキャプテンはさすがに探すの早いです。
近くで見ることができなかったのですが、あっちだ!こっちだ!ってチョコっと顔をだすカメさんを
探すのに必死でした。とっても楽しかったです。
この日はクルクル円を書いているマンタ3頭にも出会うことができました。
ガイドさん曰く、マンタにはなかなか会えないようです。ラッキー♪
サンドバーは残念ながら顔を出していなかったのですが、
十分海の真ん中に立っている!っていう感動を味わうことができました。
ガイドさんがいろいろポーズを指示してくれて写真を順番に撮ってくれます。ありがとうございました!
海側も山側もとっても素敵な景色が広がっていて絵になります。
最後はシュノーケル♪サンドバーのすぐ横にシュノーケルスポットがあり
黄色の魚をたくさん見ることができました。
説明もしっかりしてくれるので安心です^^怖くなってもサンドバーまですぐ戻れる距離でした。
半日でワイキキから離れてこんなに美しい景色をみれるなんて大満足です☆
I had a great time.
It's not often that I get to enter a sea where my feet can't touch the bottom, so I was a bit scared at first, but once I got in, it felt amazing, and I wanted to swim forever.
The boat ride was fast, and the wind felt really nice.
I was very satisfied to see both dolphins and sea turtles.
とても楽しかったです。
足のつかない海に入ることはなかなかないので、
最初はこわかったのですが、入るととっても
気持ちよくて、ずっと泳いでいたかったです。
移動のボートはスピードがあり、風がとても気持ち
よかった。
イルカもウミガメも見ることができてとても
満足です。
I have always wanted to swim with dolphins, and this tour made it happen! The staff member (the principal of Dolphin Middle School) was bright and very friendly, sharing valuable information about Hawaii while we were in the car, making the ride enjoyable.
Once on board, the captain communicated with other boats via radio to get information about dolphin sightings, and we moved around in pursuit of them. This added to the excitement and made it fun.
When we finally encountered a pod of dolphins and got to swim with them, it was thrilling and moving! Moreover, we were lucky enough to encounter them twice, and we even got to swim with sea turtles. The sea turtles had beautiful eyes and their movements were adorable! The ocean and sky were both beautiful, and I was very satisfied with the experience.
以前からイルカと泳いでみたい!と思っていたのが今回のツーアで叶いました!
スタッフのお姉さん(イルカ中学の校長先生)は明るくて、とても気さくな方で移動の車中でもハワイのガイドをためになる生情報を入れながら楽しく話していただけました。
乗船してからはイルカ出没ポイントの情報を船長さん?が他の船の方から無線で連絡をもらいながら、イルカを追って、あちこち移動。これも臨場感があって、楽しかったです。
ついにイルカの群れと遭遇し、一緒に泳げた時は興奮と感動でした!!しかも、ラッキーなことに2度も遭遇、おまけに海亀と泳ぐ事もできました。海亀も眼がきれいで、しぐさが可愛かった!海も空もきれいで大変満足出来ました。
The sandbar was about knee-deep, but the water was very clear and the color of the sea was beautiful, which was really great. I took a lot of photos. At the sea turtle spot, I was able to see many sea turtles. There were also plenty of fish while snorkeling. For lunch, they made us hamburgers, and I was very satisfied! The staff were all very kind, and it was a lot of fun.
There are no changing facilities, so on the way back, you'll be on the bus with your wet swimsuit for about an hour to Waikiki. It’s a good idea to have a T-shirt, hoodie, or dress that you can put on over your swimsuit!
サンドバーはひざ下くらいでしたが、透明度も高くて、海の色がきれいで、とってもよかったです。いっぱい写真撮っちゃいました。海亀スポットでは、たくさんの海亀が見れました。シュノーケリングも魚がたくさんいます。ランチもハンバーガーをつくってくれて、とても満足です!スタッフの方も皆さんとっても親切でたのしかったです。
着替えるところはないので、帰りは、濡れた水着のままバスに揺られてワイキキまで一時間弱くらいなので、そのまま上から着れるTシャツやパーカ、ワンピなどあったほうがいいですよ!
I was moved to see dolphins swimming right in front of me (tears). It's wonderful to be able to swim with them♪( ´▽`)
イルカが目の前で泳いでるのに感動(泣)
一緒に泳げるって素敵だよ♪( ´▽`)
I was moved to see turtles swimming and rays swimming in circles in a group up close. The sandbar was about ankle-deep, and the sand was very beautiful. I could see the coral reef while snorkeling, but I couldn't reach it, and small fish were swimming around. It was a series of emotional experiences for me.
カメが泳ぐのとエイが群れで円を描いて泳ぐのが近くで見れ感動しました。砂州の上は、くるぶしほどの深さで砂はとてもきれいでした。サンゴ礁は、シュノーケルで見えているのに足が届かず小さな魚が泳いでました。初めての経験で感動の連続でした。
I was really looking forward to this tour during my trip, and it was truly, truly enjoyable!! The scenery was beautiful, and the staff were kind, which made me feel at ease throughout the tour. I went with three friends, and everyone was extremely satisfied, saying this tour was the best! I would definitely recommend it to anyone going to Hawaii!!
旅行のなかでこのツアーを一番楽しみにしていたのですが、本当に本当に楽しかったです!!
景色がきれいなのはもちろん、スタッフのみなさんもやさしくて安心してツアーにのぞむことができました☆
友人3人といったのですが、みんなこのツアーが一番だったと大満足です☆☆
ハワイに行く人がいればおすすめしたいと思います!!
We participated in the afternoon session with our family of three, including our 2-year-old. First, I recommend checking the website for low tide days and making a reservation. Since it wasn't low tide this time, even in the shallowest areas, the water reached about our bottoms, and we couldn't see the beautifully exposed sandbar as in the photos. The weather was also quite cloudy, so when we got fully wet, it felt particularly cold when we got out. For those who are sensitive to the cold, I recommend keeping your upper body dry. Still, we were able to see sea turtles swimming near the boat, and if you're lucky, they might come close to you. The sea was beautiful, and we were quite satisfied. The food was delicious too. Small children cannot participate in snorkeling after landing on the sandbar (an adult must accompany the child), but we didn't get bored as we could eat first or watch turtles from the boat. The staff were all cheerful and fun, which was great. They spoke a bit quickly, but I guess that's understandable since they say the same things every day. They strongly advise against bringing anything other than waterproof cameras during the sandbar landing. We were a bit anxious about that and wanted to take family photos, so we requested a DVD, which turned out quite well. The DVD was handed over at a store near DFS that night. Since it was cash on delivery, we didn't need any money when boarding. However, I slightly regret not bringing a camera in a waterproof case. If I have the opportunity to go to Hawaii again, I would like to participate again.
家族三人(2歳児含む)で午後の会に参加しました。まずはHPより干潮の日を探して予約することをお勧めします。今回は干潮でなかったため、一番浅いところでもお尻の下くらいまで水につかる感じで、写真のようなきれいに干上がったサンドバーをみることはできませんでした。そして天気も曇りがちだったので、全身水に濡れると、あがった時にことさら寒かったです。寒がりな方は上半身を濡らさないことをお勧めします。それでも船の近くをウミガメが泳ぎ、運が良ければぶつかって?来たり、海もきれいで十分満足できるものでした。お食事もおいしかったですよ。小さい子供は、サンドバー上陸後のシュノーケリングには参加できません(大人一人は子供についていないといけません)が、先に食事をしたり、船から亀をみたり飽きることはありませんでした。スタッフも明るく楽しい方ばかりでよかったです。ちょっと早口だったけど、毎日同じことを言っているのだから仕方ないかな・・・。サンドバー上陸時は、防水カメラ以外の持参は強くお勧めできません、と説明されます。うちはそれも不安だし、家族の写真を撮りたかったのでDVDを依頼しましたがなかなか良かったです。DVDは当日夜にはDFS傍の店で手渡し。代金引き換えなので、乗船時はお金の必要はありません。でも、防水ケースとかに入れてカメラ持参すればよかったかな、とちょっと後悔です。もしまたハワイにいく機会があったら参加したいと思います。
The guide who took care of us was very cheerful and made everyone around us enjoy themselves!!! Although the snorkeling time was shorter than I expected, I was able to see a pod of dolphins up close, and I had a really fun time!!! I would love to have their help again when I go to Hawaii♪ Thank you very much!!! The taro chips and hamburger were delicious too---☆
お世話になったガイドさんは皆とても明るくてで周りを楽しませてくれました!!!
思ったよりシュノーケリングの時間は少なかったけれど、
イルカの群れを間近でみることが出来て、とても楽しい時間を過ごせました!!!
またHawaiiへ行ったらお世話になりたいです♪
ありがとうございました!!!
タロイモ(~)チップス・ハンバーガーも美味しかったですよ---☆
We had a great time during our trip! The service we received from the whole staff was exceptional! Everyone was very helpful and fun! They made sure we were comfortable and enjoying ourselves. I was also impressed that they gave extra attention to my dad who is a senior and took care of him. I am so glad I took my friends and family on this adventure and will definitely recommend this excursion to friends visiting Oahu!
It’s incredibly soothing. The endless horizon, the white sandy beach, the sound of the waves, the townscape—everything is just perfect. I only had time to visit Kailua Beach, but the guide mentioned that Lanikai has its own unique charm as well. Next time I go, I’d like to make the trip to Lanikai.
Most of the staff are Japanese, but almost all the foreign staff are fluent in Japanese, so you can participate with peace of mind.
とにかく癒されます。どこまでも続く水平線、白い砂浜、波の音、街並み、すべて最高です。カイルアビーチしか時間がなくていけませんでしたが、ラニカイもまた違った良さがあるとガイドが言ってました。次に行くときはラニカイまで足を運んでみたいと思います。
スタッフも日本人スタッフがほとんどですが、外国人スタッフもほぼ全員日本語がペラペラですので、安心して参加できます。
On September 20th, our family of four, including a 4-year-old and an 8-year-old, participated in the morning session. After coming out of the sea, it was a bit chilly, so we needed something to cover ourselves. The staff explained everything in Japanese, which made it easy to understand. They provided life jackets for the kids, so there was no need to worry even if they couldn't swim. The DVD they filmed for a fee was well-edited and became a wonderful family memory. We also got to see sea turtles, the food was delicious, and the staff had a bright atmosphere, making it a fun experience.
9月20日に4歳、8歳の子供を含む家族4人で午前に参加しました。
海から上がると、少し肌寒いので、体を覆う物が必要です。
スタッフは日本語で説明をしてくれるのでわかりやすかったです。
子供にはライフジャケットを貸してくれるので、泳げなくても心配ありません。
有料で撮影してくれるDVDは編集もよく、家族のよい思い出になりました。
ウミガメも見れて、料理はおいしかったし、
スタッフの雰囲気も明るく、楽しかったです。
I'm not comfortable with normal scuba gear, so this was a good way to be able to get under the water and see the marine life off Hawaii.
The scooters were not fast, but that is due to safety.
Everyone gets a diver that looks after them and can go under with their partner/friend. I always felt I was in good hands.
The experience lasted 20 minutes, which is not much. But to allow several people to go down without using several days, one doesn't have a choice. One would always want more time with something that is enjoyable.
A bit pricey, but safety costs, and the value was everything considered, not bad.
I participated in a tour on September 21, 2011.
On the day of the tour, it was very windy and quite chilly, and the water was murky, making it nearly impossible to see anything while snorkeling.
If it was just visibility issues, it would have been one thing, but the high waves due to the wind were very frightening.
First, we went out a bit offshore by yacht and boat for turtle watching. I was thrilled to encounter a sea turtle.
After that, we moved on and got off the boat to walk in the water towards the sandbar. Depending on the tide, I think, the white sandy beach we saw in pictures wasn't as prominent.
After taking plenty of photos at the sandbar, we returned to the boat for lunch. This was satisfying. We had sandwiches, salad, fruit, and cookies, which were quite filling. The tour organizers also offer photos for an additional fee, and you can receive the data that evening.
After a break, it was finally time for snorkeling. Despite the cold and strong winds causing some people to give up, I managed to return to the boat safely thanks to the support of the instructor, but I was filled with fear due to the high waves.
I realized that this tour is heavily influenced by the weather. I think the timing was just right.
2011/09/21にツアーに参加しました。
当日は風が強く、とても肌寒く水中は濁っているしシュノーケリングの際ほぼ何も見えませんでした。
見えないだけなら、まだしも風のせいで波が高くとても怖かったです。
まず、少し沖の方までヨットやボートで行き、ウミガメウォッチング。
ウミガメには出会う事ができ、感激です。
その後移動をし、船から降りて海の中を歩きながらサンドバーまで行きますが、潮の満ち引きにもよるとは思いますが写真で見たほど白い砂浜はでていませんでした。
サンドバーでひとしきり写真を撮ったあとは、船に戻り、ランチタイムです。
これは満足でした。
サンドイッチやサラダ、フルーツ、クッキーボリューミーです。
写真はツアー主催者側でも別料金で写真を映してくれます。
データとして当日の晩には渡してもらえます。
一息ついて、いよいよシュノーケリング。
寒さと、強風でリタイヤ者の出る中、なんとかインストラクターのサポートのおかげで無事には船に戻れましたが、波も高く恐怖感でいっぱいでした。
天候にかなり左右されるツアーだと実感しました。
時間的には丁度良いと思います。
I chose the early morning plan, so the time was short and it felt a bit pricey, but the water was up to my shins and the view was 360 degrees of the ocean! It was very beautiful... I think it's a sight you can't see in Japan.
The crew was very cheerful and made the atmosphere on the boat enjoyable as well.
You might not want to have high expectations for turtle watching. You can see them somewhat from the boat, but it's not very clear.
I did some research on the tide information in advance and chose a date close to low tide, which was great. However, it seems that tours are also held close to high tide. There might be times when the water is up to your waist when you go, so please be careful when selecting your date (especially if you are bringing small children).
早朝プランにしたので時間が短く少し割高感はありましたが、海面はスネぐらいまでで360度うみ!とてもきれいでした・・・。日本では見れない景色だと思います。
クルーの方もとても陽気に盛り上げてくれ、船上も楽しかったです。
ウミガメウォッチングはあまり期待しないほうがいいかもしれません。船上からなんとなく見えるなぁ、といった具合です。
潮の情報を事前に調べて、干潮に近い日程を選んだのでとてもよかったですが、満潮に近い日でもツアー開催しているようです。行ってみたら股下ぐらいまで水があった・・・、なんてこともあるようですので、日程選ぶ際はお気をつけ下さい。(小さいお子さんを連れられる場合は特に)
Thank you for joining us. We are sorry that you were unable to see many wild sea turtles on the day of your visit. Our captain tries to take you to the best spots for wild sea turtles based on the sea conditions that day, but please understand that the number of turtles you can see may vary from day to day due to the nature of wildlife. Additionally, as you mentioned, the water depth of the sandbar changes with the tides and seasons, but we appreciate your understanding that tours are conducted daily, excluding Sundays, holidays, and special occasions. We look forward to welcoming you again.
ご参加いただき有難うございます。当日はあまり野生のウミガメをご確認いただけず残念に思っております。船長がその日の海の状況を見て、野生のウミガメがいるベストスポットへご案内させていただくようにしておりますが、自然の生き物のため、日によりご覧いただける回数や頭数は変化しておりますことご了承ください。また、おっしゃるとおり潮の満ち引きや季節によりサンドバーの水深は変化しておりますが、ツアーは日曜・祭日・祝日を覗き毎日催行しておりますこともご理解いただけましたら幸いです。またのお越しお待ちしております。
I arrived in Hawaii in the morning and participated in an afternoon tour.
I was worried about the heavy rain before moving by boat, but the weather changed frequently, and by the time we got into the water, it was sunny and warm. The depth of the sandbar was about knee-deep. There was a friendly sea turtle. I thought I could only watch it from the boat since touching it would incur a hefty fine. However, it came close without being afraid of humans and even bumped into me lightly!
The guide was cheerful and lively, making it a fun honeymoon trip!!
ハワイに午前中到着して、午後ツアーに参加しました。
船で移動する前まで豪雨で心配でしたが、天気がコロコロ変わって、海に入るときには晴れて暖かったです。
サンドバーの深さは膝くらいでした。
人懐っこい海ガメが1匹いた。
自分から触ると多額な罰金だそうで、船の上から見るだけかな~と思っていました。
でも、人間に怖がらず近くに寄ってきて、軽くぶつかってきました~
ガイドさんは明るく盛り上げてくれて、楽しい新婚旅行になりました!!
I participated last October and personally found the seawater to be very cold, so this time, since it was September, I was really looking forward to it. Last time I joined the afternoon session, but this time I discovered the different charm of the morning session.
The result was... rain. While Waikiki was sunny, once we crossed the mountain, it was pouring rain (laughs). Before even worrying about the cold seawater, I was soaked and freezing! I was a bit anxious that it might get canceled, but we set sail in the rain! We did some turtle watching in light rain and saw about 2 or 3 turtles. By the time we arrived at the sandbar, it was raining even more. We went out in our swimsuits, but it was cold! Some people on the tour were smartly wearing jackets while walking on the sandbar. I thought that was the right choice. When the sunlight peeked through the clouds, it felt really nice. The seawater was warmer than last year, which was a bit of relief amidst the cold rain on my upper body.
Next was snorkeling. What surprised me was how the sea turtles were unusually friendly! They are protected by law and should never be touched, but they actually came up to us (laughs). While snorkeling, they swam alongside us the whole time, and it was truly a precious experience!
Despite the on-and-off rain and feeling cold, it ultimately became a wonderful memory for me and my two friends!!!
私は去年10月に参加して個人的に凄く海水が冷たく感じたので、今回は9月という事もあり、とても期待して参加しました。前回は午後の部、今回は午前の部と違った良さを発見できました。
結果は.....雨。。。ワイキキは晴れていましたが、山を越えるとすっかりどしゃぶりでした(笑 海水が冷たいとかいう以前に雨にぬれて凄く寒いっ。もしかして中止になるのかと少々不安になりましたが、雨の中出航!!やや小雨の中海亀ウォッチング。2~3匹見れました。サンドバーに着いた頃にはさらに雨。。。水着で繰り出しましたが、寒い!!ツアーの中にはしっかり上着を着てサンドバーを歩いている方もいました。正解だと思いました。途中雲の隙間から太陽の光が出てきたときはとても気持ち良かったです。肝心な海水は去年より温かく、雨で上半身が寒い中少し助かりました。続いてはシュノーケル。ここで驚いたのが異常にに人に寄り付いてくるウミガメがっ!?法律で守られていて決して触ってはいけないとされているカメですが、むしろ向こうからぶつかってきます(笑 シュノーケル中、終始一緒に泳ぎ、それはそれは貴重な体験をさせていただきました!
降ったり止んだりな雨の中、寒い思いもしましたが、結果的に友達2人でとても良い思い出になりました!!!
I participated on September 17th. I was very impressed by the sandbar that suddenly appears in the middle of the ocean! Unfortunately, it was a cloudy day, so it was a bit cold, but I had a great time. The water was about mid-calf at the shallowest point. I think it would have been even more amazing if I could have participated during low tide when the sand is fully exposed. The staff were all cheerful and energetic, making it a fun experience, and the hamburgers for lunch were very delicious. We were also able to see sea turtles here and there, making it a highly satisfying tour that I recommend. Since the waves are calm, I think even beginners in snorkeling can enjoy it.
9/17参加しました。海の真ん中に突然現れるサンドバーには非常に感動しました!当日生憎の曇り空だったので、寒かったのですが楽しかったです。水は一番浅いところでふくらはぎの真ん中位でした。完全に砂が露出する引潮時に参加できたらもっと感動的だったんだろうな、と思います。スタッフはみな明るくてテンションが高く、楽しませてくれますし、ランチのハンバーガーもとても美味しかったです。ウミガメもあちこちに見ることができ、非常に満足できるツアーでお勧めです。波が穏やかな場所なので、シュノーケル初心者の方でも楽しめると思います。

ガイドさん、おもしろくてなごみました♪
また行きたい!!!!
I participated in mid-September. The staff were friendly, and I had a fun experience.
The summer-only early morning course follows this flow: "Boat → Walk on the sandbar → Snorkeling → Breakfast."
However, it can be quite cold in the morning. Once you get into the water, it's manageable, but due to the strong wind, it can be quite uncomfortable when you come out wet. Even without that, if you go with a summer mindset, it feels chilly. (At one point, all the participants were hesitant.)
Make sure to bring something to protect against the wind, or you can borrow a wetsuit.
Also, you need to pay attention to the tides, as there can be times when the water level is quite high.
It's safer to bring a waterproof camera, or you can bring a waterproof case.
There are apparently friendly sea turtles around, and you can often encounter them. (This time, one came quite close to us.)
The price seems a bit on the higher side, but overall, I think it's a good tour.
9月中旬に参加しました。
スタッフの方は感じが良く、楽しく体験出来ました。
夏限定の早朝コースは、
「船→サンドバーで歩く→スノーケリング→朝ご飯」
という流れ。
ただし、朝は結構寒いです。
海に入ってしまえばまだなんとかなるレベルなのですが、
風が強いため、濡れた後に出るとかなり堪えますし、
そうでなくても夏感覚で行くと肌寒いです。
(途中までは参加者がみんなひいていました)
ちゃんと風を防ぐものを持って行くか、
ウェットスーツを貸して下さるのでそれを利用。
また、潮の満ち引きをよく見て行かないと、
普通に水位の高い時もあるようです。
カメラは防水のものを持って行く方が安心して使えます。
あるいは防水ケースを持参。
懐いているウミガメがいるらしく、
ウミガメには結構会える雰囲気。
(今回も、間近にきてくれました)
値段はやや高めの設定な気はしますが、
総じて良いツアーだと思います。
You can enjoy snorkeling in the beautiful sea. You'll even get to meet sea turtles. Plus, the staff is amazing!! They will definitely get you excited.
綺麗な海でシュノーケリングを楽しめる。ウミガメにも会えるよ。それと、スタッフが最高!!盛り上げてくれること間違いなし。
Watching the sea turtles up close was fantastic. I somewhat understood the meaning of the sandbar. Snorkeling...
ウミガメは真近にウォッチングできて満点です。サンドバーはその意味がなんとなく理解できました。シュノーケリングは・・・
The weather was great, and I got to see a lot of dolphins and sea turtles. The staff were very lively and made the experience enjoyable from early in the morning until the end. It wasn't just about meeting the dolphins; the entire tour was fun.
お天気がよくたくさんのイルカとウミガメに会えました。
スタッフの方たちがとてもいい感じに盛り上げてくれて、朝早くから解散までたのしく過ごせました。ただイルカに会えるだけじゃなくて、ツアーの内容全体が楽しかったです。
First of all this was my first time snorkeling and my wife's 2nd or 3rd time! I was really nervous and the girls did everything they could to make sure I was comfortable in the water and made sure I had a great time! The sandbars were great! The best part where the surprise sea turtles! The reef was beautiful! We saw a ton of fish and a sea turtle! I highly recommend Captain Bob's to anyone! The music during the BBQ was great and so was the food! The girls where funny and really enjoyed what they were doing! If you guys go make sure to bring your sunblock!
I confirmed my reservation in Waikiki, and it was fine to do so in Japanese. They even gave me a morning call early on the day of my arrival.
I participated alone, but both the crew and other guests were friendly, so I highly recommend it!
I took motion sickness medication before departure, and I didn't feel sick at all on the boat or in the pickup van, so it's a must for those who are worried about it. In fact, about two people got seasick on the boat and couldn't go snorkeling with the dolphins.
Since we were dealing with wild dolphins, I thought it would depend on luck, but a mother dolphin and her five calves swam slowly around us! It was a lucky day because the water was very clear!
We moved to another spot and snorkeled among about eight sea turtles! The taro bread hamburger for lunch was also quite delicious!
We were able to return to Waikiki by noon, so I highly recommend it!
ワイキキに到着してからリコンファームしましたが日本語でOKで、当日の朝早くに確認のモーニングコールくれました。
一人参加でしたが、クルーもお客さんも仲良く過ごせるのでオススメです!
出発前に酔い止めを飲んでおいたら、ボートの上でもピックアップのバンでも全然酔わなかったので、心配な方はマストです。
実際2人くらいボートで酔って、イルカシュノーケルできてませんでした。
野生のイルカ相手だから、運もあるだろうとおもってましたが、5頭のイルカの親子が私達の周りを本当にゆっくり泳いでくれました!その日は水も透明度の高い日だったのでラッキーでした!
ポイント移動して、ウミガメが8頭くらいいる中でシュノーケルしました!
ランチのタロイモブレッドのハンバーガーもなかなか美味しかったです!
昼にはワイキキに戻ってこれたので、オススメです!
