Wild dolphins 野生のイルカ

Reviewed by: fmak23

I swam with wild dolphins! It was early in the morning and I was tired, but overall I think it was great.

First, we had an early pickup, and we were staying at the Sheraton Princess Kaiulani, but the pickup location was at Sheraton Waikiki. It was a bit far, and I was wondering about it, but it turned out to be a misunderstanding. That's a bit disappointing.

After getting on the bus and receiving explanations, the stories were interesting and got me excited despite the early hour! The driving was a bit rough, which was nerve-wracking, but funny.

Once we arrived, we took a bathroom break and quickly changed into our wetsuits while taking some photos before boarding the boat for equipment explanations and departure. The captain had a great personality, which added to the excitement.

Maybe we were lucky, but about 5 to 10 minutes after departure, we finally spotted the dolphins! I dove into the sea and got to see the dolphins up close. I was moved by the clarity and beauty of the ocean while enjoying snorkeling with the dolphins. They swam surprisingly fast, and we only had about 3 to 5 minutes to see them each time, but we got back on the boat, moved ahead of the dolphin pod, and dove in about three times before heading to a spot with sea turtles!

That spot also had high water clarity, which was very impressive. The sea turtles were quite relaxed and didn’t swim away even when we got close. Just remember, you must not touch them!

We were also able to hand-feed beautiful fish!

Even though it was Hawaii, since it was December, the wind was cold when we got out of the water and moved on the boat. I recommend bringing a beach towel or something light to wear.

Also, since it was early in the morning, the ABC store was closed, and I went without breakfast, but I ended up feeling sick on the way back due to hunger, the tightness of the life jacket, and the boat's rocking. So, I recommend having a proper breakfast and bringing motion sickness medication if you’re prone to it.

野生のイルカと泳いで来ました(^^)
朝早くで疲れたけど総評としては良かったと思います。
まず朝早くピックアップなのですが自分たちはシェラトンプリンセスカイウラニに泊まっていたのですが、ピックアップ場所はシェラトンワイキキになってました。ちょっと遠いし疑問に思っていたのですが後に判明したのですが勘違いでしたようです。ちょっと残念ですね(^^;
バスに乗ってから説明など受けてその話とかが面白く朝早いのにテンション上がりました!
多少運転荒いのでハラハラしますが笑
ついてトイレ休憩して早速ウェットに着替えて写真をとってもらいつつ船に乗り込み用具などの説明を受け出港です。
船長さんのいいキャラもあってワクワク(^^)
運がよかったのか、出港から5～10分くらいで念願のイルカ先生が!!!
海にダイブして生イルカ先生を拝みました(^-^)v
海の透明さと綺麗さに感動しつつ、イルカをシュノーケリングしながら堪能しました。
以外と泳ぎが早く、1回つかって見れる時間が3～5分程度でしたが、また船に乗り込みイルカの群れに先回りしてまたダイブしてっていうのを3回くらいして次はウミガメがいるポイントへ移動!
そのポイントもまた海の透明度が高く大変感動しました。
ウミガメは結構のんびりしていて近くでも逃げませんでした。決して触ってはダメですよ笑
餌をもらえて綺麗なお魚さんに手渡しで餌をあげることもできました！

ハワイといえど自分は12月だったので海から上がってボートで移動する際の風が寒かったですね
ビーチタオルや軽く羽織れるものをもっていくことをお勧めします。
それと朝はやかったのでABCもあいてなくて朝食抜きでいったのですが空腹とライフジャケットの腹部の締め付けとボートの揺れで帰り気分が悪くなりましたのでしっかり朝食をとって酔いやすいかたは酔い止めの持参をお勧めします。

It was a tour that I would like to apply for again! ♪ 次も申し込みたいと思うツアーでした♪

Reviewed by: かなぴぃ

I was able to swim! ^^

When I signed up, I hesitated. In the end, I decided to enroll to fulfill my partner's wish of "wanting to swim with dolphins."

Even with a life jacket on, I felt anxious. When I jumped in, my heart rate increased, and I couldn't breathe properly, so at first, I swam with my face mostly above water.

However, the crew was persistently encouraging, saying "Dive down, it's okay, it's okay," and after about five minutes, I managed to get my face in the water! (For someone who isn't good at swimming, those five minutes might be tough.)

I'm so grateful! Once I got my face in the water, it felt like a different world. There was a huge group of dolphins, probably around twenty. I was able to keep my face in the water longer because I wanted to see more. I knew I shouldn't move my fins, but out of fear, I was flailing them. However, realizing that the dolphins would swim away, I stopped moving my fins and just floated gently with the help of the life jacket.

I also got to see a sea turtle, and by that time, I was swimming at the front, sticking close to the crew.

This tour gave me a sense of security, knowing that they would help if anything happened. My enthusiasm to see the dolphins helped me learn to swim, and later, I found myself swimming without a life jacket on the beach. I'm so thankful.

I’ve decided to repeat this experience. This might be the first time I want to repeat an optional tour. The transportation to the Kahala Hotel (the meeting point was a five-minute walk from the hotel at Kahala Bridge) was also a nice touch.

泳げるようになっていました^^;

申込の際、迷いました。
最終的には相方の"イルカと泳ぎたい"という希望を叶えるため申込。

ライフジャケットをつけても不安。
飛び込んでも心拍数が上がって上手に息をすることができず、最初はほぼ顔出しで泳ぎました。

で、でも、クルーの方が粘り強くひつこいくらい「潜って潜って」「大丈夫大丈夫」と
言ってくださって、5分後には何とか顔に水をつけられるように！
（泳ぐのが苦手な人にとってはこの5分間はしょうがないかもしれません）

感謝です！顔に水をつけるとそこは上とは別世界。
20匹はいるであろうイルカの大群。
もっと見たいとずっと顔を水につけることができました。
フィンを動かしてはいけないとわかっていたのに怖さからばたつかせていたのですが、
イルカが逃げてしまうと知り、フィンは動かさずライフジャケットの力だけを
借りてそうっと浮かんでいました。

ウミガメも見ることができ、そのころにはクルーの方にくっついて先頭を
泳いでいる私。

このツアーには「何かあれば助けてくれる」という安心感がありました。
イルカを見たい、という熱意で泳げるようになり、その後、ビーチで
ライフジャケットもなく泳いでいる私がいました。感謝感謝です。

リピート決定。

A once-in-a-lifetime experience. 一生に一度の体験

Reviewed by: びびこ

This tour is full of Aloha hospitality. On the day I participated, I was lucky enough to encounter wild dolphins at two different points. The American crew was fantastic. The guide who swam with the dolphins was clear and kind in their instructions, and they were experienced in catering to each passenger's needs. I attended with a friend, but I noticed that they provided excellent care for families with children, which was appreciated. The guide's freediving underwater was artistic, almost like a dolphin! On the way back, they performed bright and beautiful prayer songs with sharp dancing.

For those who will be participating, I recommend taking measures against seasickness and bringing a waterproof outdoor jacket. I don’t get seasick, but quite a few people were feeling unwell and couldn’t enjoy the beautiful scenery of the boat trip, which was unfortunate to see. Additional investments to enhance your experience include seasickness medication, which is available at Japanese airports, and a $20 wristband that is introduced on the bus ride to the destination. Also, depending on where you sit on the boat, you may get splashed by the waves. Having a lightweight, water-resistant jacket would make your experience more comfortable.

アロハホスピタリティ満点のツアーです。私が参加した日は、ラッキーなことにポイント２ヶ所で野生のイルカと遭遇できました。アメリカ人のクルーも大当たりでした。イルカと泳ぐガイドもわかりやすく親切に案内してくれましたし、乗客の方それぞれにあった対応も慣れていて、私は友人との参加でしたが、家族連れには子供へのケアが厚く、ありがたい様子でした。水中でのガイドのフリーダイビングも芸術的で、まるでイルカみたいでした！帰りは明るくて祈りの歌が上手でキレッキレのダンスを披露してくれました。
これから参加される方には、酔い止め対策を取られること、Waterproofのアウトドアジャケットを持参されることをお薦めします。私は船酔いしないのですが、結構な方がダウンされていてせっかくの船旅の景色を楽しむことができず見ていて気の毒でした。体験を良くするための追加の投資は酔い止め薬は日本の空港でも売っていますし、往路のバスで$20のリストバンドが紹介されます。また船での移動は座る場所によって波しぶきがかかります。水を通さないタイプの薄手のジャケットがあると快適に過ごせると思います。

ウミガメシュノーケリング　ホロカイ・カタマラン号　高確率でウミガメに会えるタートルキャニオンへ！ソフトドリンク&スナック付き＜3時間／英語／ワイキキホテル発＞

Seasickness 船酔い

Reviewed by: hayashi

We participated as a couple. As soon as we exited the hotel and reached the beach, we saw the boat, so we arrived without any confusion. There were about 20 participants that day, but we were the only Japanese people.

The weather was nice, and it was great that we got to see sea turtles. However, during snorkeling, there was an incident where my wife's life jacket lost air. Since she couldn't swim, she was quite panicked. I waved to the guide on the boat, but they just smiled and waved back, thinking it was a simple greeting, and didn’t come to help. When I shouted "Help" loudly, a guide swimming nearby brought a float, and we managed to resolve the situation. Perhaps there was an explanation on how to call for help during the initial English guidance.

When we got back on the boat, I found that my life jacket was also about 70% deflated. I had checked how to inflate it and how to maintain the valve with the guide, so the equipment itself might have been faulty.

After snorkeling, we cruised towards Diamond Head. The waves were quite big, and I ended up feeling sick. When I asked the guide where the restroom was because I thought I might throw up, I was told, "Don't throw up in the restroom," so I had to hold it in. Eventually, I couldn't hold it anymore and ended up using a plastic bag.

There were other guests who also felt sick, but after applying lavender essential oil, they received a bucket that said "Let's Do It" and were encouraged with "Let's Do it." There were several people who were rescued from near drowning and others who felt unwell, but they were all Asian. The Western guests seemed to be having a great time, drinking alcohol on the boat. It might be a tour more suited for Westerners (laughs).

夫婦二人で参加しました。
ホテルからビーチに出るとすぐに船が見えたため、迷うことなく到着。当日は20人ほど参加していましたが、日本人は私たち二人だけでした。
天気が良く、ウミガメにも会えた点は良かったです。
しかし、シュノーケリング中、妻の救命胴衣から空気が抜けるハプニングが発生。妻は泳げなかったのでかなり焦りました。船にいるガイドに手を振ったのですが、単なるコミュニケーションと思ったのかニコニコ手を振りかえしてくるだけで助けてもらえず。「Help」と大きな声を上げたところ近くで泳いでいたガイドさんが浮き輪を持ってきて来てくれて事なきを得ました。もしかしたら、最初の英語のガイダンスのところで助けの呼び方などの説明があったのかもしれません。船に上がると私の救命胴衣も7割ほど空気が抜けていました。空気の入れ方、弁の保持の仕方等はガイドさんにチェックしてもらい実施していたので道具自体が良くなかったのかもしれません。
シュノーケリング後はダイヤモンドヘッドの方などをクルージング。結構波が大きく、今度は私の気分が悪くなってしまいました。トイレで吐こうと思いガイドさんにトイレの場所を聞くと、「トイレでは吐くな」と言われ我慢することに。その後、とうとう我慢ができずにビニール袋に戻しました。
他のお客さんも気分が悪くなった人はいましたが、ラベンダーのアロマオイルを塗られた後、「Let's Do It」と書かれたバケツをもらい、「Let's Do it」と言われていました。
溺れかかって助けられた人、気分の悪くなった人は複数人いましたが全てアジア人。西洋人は船上でお酒をがぶがぶ飲みとても楽しそうでした。西洋人向きのツアーなのかもしれません（笑）

Rainbow watching instead of whale watching. クジラの代わりにレインボーウォッチング

Reviewed by: TKD

The season had just started, and due to bad weather with rain, we unfortunately didn't encounter any whales. However, a big rainbow appeared over the hotels at Waikiki Beach...! In a different way, we enjoyed the cruise.

Before disembarking, they gave us a "one more boarding ticket for this season." If you're really hoping to see whales, consider scheduling your trip early in your stay to allow for a re-challenge. (It seems that reboarding reservations can only be made by phone and are available in English.)

This time, the weather was rough, and the boat rocked quite a bit... It was easier to stand and hold onto the railing to manage the swaying rather than sitting down. The crew was very attentive to those who felt unwell.

シーズンに入ったばかり＆途中から雨という悪天候で、
肝心のクジラには出会えませんでしたが、
大きな虹がワイキキビーチのホテル群の上に・・・！
別の意味で、クルーズを楽しめました。

下船前に、「今シーズン中、もう一度乗船チケット」をくれました。
どうしてもクジラ・・・という場合は、滞在期間の早いうちにして、
再チャレンジできるスケジュールにしてみては？
（再乗船の予約は電話で、英語のみ対応のようです）

今回は天気が荒れ、船は結構揺れました・・・
座っているよりも、立って手すりにつかまり揺れに対応していた方がラクでした。
気分が悪くなった人には、クルーが丁寧に対応していましたよ。

Reviewed by: シルバーファミリー

When we arrived at the port and were about to board, despite having signed up for a meal (showing the smartphone screen of the reservation), we were told that there was no such notification. After confirming with VELTRA over the phone at the counter, it turned out there was a communication error with the operating company after about 10 minutes of investigation. I'm glad it was resolved, but with the departure time approaching, I felt anxious in a foreign place where I struggled with the language. The whale watching was good; although the wind was strong, we were able to see the tails a few times. The meal was also delicious.

港に着いてさあ乗船となった時、食事つきで申し込んだにもかかわらず(申し込みのスマホの画面を提示)、そのような連絡が来てないとのこと。カウンターでVELTRAに電話で確認したところ、10分程調べてもらった結果、運航会社への連絡ミスとわかりました。解決したので良かったですが、出航時間も迫り、言葉の不自由な旅行先で不安になりました。ホエールウォッチングは風が強かったものの、何回か尾びれも見えました。食事も美味しかったです。

It was an early morning tour, and I was really worried that the water would be cold, but surprisingly, once I got in, it wasn't that cold at all. From the moment I saw the sharks, I was completely captivated (laughs). However, the boat was really rocky, so snorkeling didn't make much sense (laughs). I took motion sickness medicine, so I didn't feel seasick at all, and when we boarded, no one felt unwell. I was satisfied with the number of sharks we saw! However, because of the rocking, I couldn't take very nice photos~ ★ It’s expensive, but buying the DVD might be a good idea~. We did (laughs). Since it's something you can't do often, it's worth it (^^)/ I recommend it for those looking for excitement~ (＾◇＾).

朝早いツアーだったのと、水が冷たいんじゃないかとそれがすごく心配だったが、意外と入ってしまえばそこまで寒くもなく、もうシャークが見えた瞬間から夢中（笑）ただ揺れがすごいからシュノーケルはあまり意味なし（笑）酔い止め飲んでたからまったく船酔いもせずにうちらが乗ったときは誰一人として具合悪い人いなかった。かなりの数のシャーク見れて満足！ただやっぱり揺れがすごいから写真はあまりきれいにとれなかったな～★高いけどDVD買うのがいいかも～。うちらはかった（笑）なかなかできないことだからやる価値はあり(^^)/刺激が欲しい人にはおススメ～(＾◇＾)

Reviewed by: しろたん

We departed early in the morning and boarded the shuttle bus next to the nearby hotel, listening to explanations from a Japanese female guide for an hour until we arrived at the island's west coast! I was worried about getting motion sickness on the bus and the boat, so I took my medicine early. Changing into my swimsuit at the hotel was definitely the right choice. Also, I was able to rent a wetsuit on-site for $10. Once I was ready, it was time to board. The waves were intense, but the sea breeze felt great, and fortunately, it cleared up despite the rain forecast.

When we reached the spot, the crew immediately had everyone jump in as soon as they spotted dolphins! When I put my face in the water, I saw a huge pod of dolphins!! Although we couldn't get super close, I was thrilled to see wild dolphins swimming in groups. We jumped in about twice, and afterward, we had around 30 minutes of free time for canoeing, stand-up paddleboarding, and snorkeling. While snorkeling, I spotted a sea turtle! It was coming up for air every 20 minutes, and I was able to see it up close, which was very moving.

After that, we had cheeseburgers and chips on the boat. It was incredibly delicious after all the activity. Finally, we all participated in a hula dance. The staff really got everyone excited, and we were able to enjoy ourselves until the end. I think this became the best memory of this trip.

Satisfaction. 満足

Reviewed by: 旦那1日目

A year after our wedding, we finally made it to Hawaii! And I got to meet dolphins for the first time, which I've always dreamed of!

We woke up early, and I thought I would definitely fall asleep on the bus, but I was too excited about seeing the dolphins to sleep at all. Once we arrived at the ocean and changed, we were ready to go to the spot—let's go!!!

The waves were a bit high today, which made me feel a little blue at first. But after a while, the captain said we could see dolphins, and all my worries disappeared! When we got into the water, there were supposedly only a few, but about ten dolphins came to greet us. I was strangely moved to see dolphins in person for the first time.

I'm so glad I bought an underwater camera—really glad (waiting for the development, haha). After enjoying that experience, we returned to the boat and headed to the snorkeling spot! On the way, we even saw a whale! The crew mentioned that it's rare to see them up close like that. We were super lucky!

When we arrived at the snorkeling spot and got in, unfortunately, the water was really murky, so it wasn't great for snorkeling. I have to deduct one star for that.

We quickly returned to the boat and had a cheeseburger for lunch! The taro buns were amazing—way better than anything from a regular shop!

That wrapped up the tour. I fell asleep on the bus, probably from all the swimming, and when I woke up, we were in Honolulu.

I got to meet dolphins, the cheeseburger was delicious, and the crew was all really nice. I definitely want to join again!

It was such a wonderful honeymoon memory!!!

ハネムーンで1年ぶりのハワイ！そして念願の初めてのイルカ！
朝は早く、バスでは絶対に寝ちゃうと思っていたけどイルカに逢えるワクワクで全然寝れず。。。
海に到着して着替えも済ませていざポイントへLet's Go!!!
今日は少し波が高めなのか、ちょっと気持ちがブルーになりかけちゃいました。
だけどしばらくしたらcaptainからイルカが見えるよの言葉で気持ち悪さも吹っ飛び！
いざ海に入ってみると、数は少ないらしいがちゃんとイルカちゃん達10匹くらい？がお出迎えしてくれました。
初めて生で見たイルカに妙に感動。
水中カメラ買っていって良かった〜、本当に良かった〜(現像待ち笑)
十分に堪能したら船に戻り今度はシュノーケリングスポットへ！その途中でクジラも見れました！クルーも言ってたけど、こんなに近くで見れることなんてないとのこと。めちゃくちゃラッキーでした！
シュノーケリングスポットついて入ってみるととてもじゃないけど水が濁っていてシュノーケリングどころじゃなかったのが残念でした。ここで星ひとつ減点。
早々に船に戻り、昼ごはんにチーズバーガー！タロイモのバンズ、最高でしたー！そこら辺の店よりもはるかに美味しかった！
これでツアーはおしまい。
バスに戻って泳いで疲れたのか即爆睡。気づいた頃にはホノルルでした。
イルカに会えたし、チーズバーガーも美味しいし、クルーはみんないい人だったし是非また参加したいです。
とってもいいハネムーンの思い出です！！！

It takes about an hour to drive from Honolulu. There were about 25 participants in the tour, including a small child around 5 years old.

After about 30 minutes on the boat heading north from the dock, we heard a shout of "There they are!!" and everyone dove into the sea! We got to play with about 30 friendly dolphins, who swam around us in circles, allowing us to enjoy the experience to the fullest. It seems that such encounters are rare, and when they can't be found, the boat returns to the starting point and moves to different locations to dive about six times (according to the staff, it’s a test of stamina).

After the dolphin time, it was time for the turtle experience. We enjoyed snorkeling while learning about the turtles. Those who wanted could also try paddle boarding and kayaking, so I decided to try paddle boarding. I struggled a bit but felt motivated to challenge myself a little more. It was a valuable experience.

When we returned to the boat, it was lunchtime! The staff distributed cheeseburgers and snacks, and we ate while moving back to the dock. After lunch, we had a fun hula dance time with the staff! We were also lucky to spot a whale spouting in the distance during our journey.

ホノルルから車で移動すること約1時間。ツアー参加者は25人程度。5歳くらいの小さなお子さんも参加していました。
船着場から船で北上すること約30分。いたー！！という声で一斉に海へダイブ！30頭ものいるか先生たちが遊んでくれました！とても人懐っこいようでぐるぐると何周も私たちの周りを泳いでくれたので、これでもか！！ってくらい堪能できました。こんなことは稀なようで、なかなか見つからないときは6回位船に戻ってはポイントを移動しつつダイブするそうです（スタッフによると体力勝負とのことでした）。
いるかの時間が終わると、カメ教授の時間です。シュノーケルをしながらカメ教授の時間を堪能しました。希望者はここでパドルボートとカヤックの体験が可能だったため、パドルボートを体験。なかなか成功できず、もう少しチャレンジしたい気もちになりました。貴重な体験ができました。
船に戻るとランチタイムです♪スタッフからチーズバーガーやスナックを配給され、それらを食べながら船着場まで移動しました。ランチタイムが終わるとスタッフとのりのりのフラダンスタイム！！移動中遠くで潮を吹くクジラの姿も見れてラッキーなことが多発でした。

A once-in-a-lifetime experience. 一生に一度の体験

Reviewed by: tae

I probably wouldn't have chosen this if it were an adult-only trip, but since this was a trip with my grandchildren, I participated in this tour that my one-year-old grandchild could uniquely experience.

I had seen comments saying, "It's not as big as expected," so I didn't have high expectations for the scale and instead enjoyed the animals that we could see and touch up close. Touching a dolphin was, I believe, my first and last experience, and my five-year-old grandchild was overjoyed. It might have been a bit too early for my one-year-old grandchild (who didn't seem scared but disliked the life jacket). The location is also fantastic.

I purchased the commemorative photos as data, but there was a problem where they weren't included on the CD I brought back. However, the staff at Sea Life Park and the staff at Veltra, whom I asked for help, were very kind and assisted me in obtaining the data successfully.

大人だけの旅行でしたらたぶん選択しなかったと思いますが、今回は孫たちとの旅行だったので１歳の孫が唯一体験できるこのツアーに参加致しました。
「期待するほどの規模ではない」との書き込みを見ていたので、規模には期待することなく、間近で見られるそして触れる動物たちを楽しみました。
イルカに触れたのは、私にとって最初で最後の体験だと思いますし、５歳の孫も大喜びでした。１歳の孫にはやはり早すぎたかも。（怖がるのではなくライフジャケットを嫌がっていました）ロケーションも最高です。

記念写真をデータで購入したのですが、持ち帰ったCDに入っていないというトラブルがありましたが、シーライフパークのスタッフの方々、そして助けを求めたベルトラさんのスタッフの方にご親切に対応して頂き、無事データを入手致しました。

I was very satisfied to swim with dolphins! イルカと泳げて大満足！

I enrolled at Dolphin University for the first time this time. I participated in the early morning tour, and I was really worried about whether I could keep my energy up since it started at 6 AM, but there was no need for concern. The tour guide worked hard to boost everyone's spirits and explained the itinerary in detail, so I think first-time participants can join the tour without any worries.

As soon as we arrived at the port and set off, within just about ten minutes, we spotted wild dolphins swimming! It seems that the spinner dolphins are the type that perform rotational jumps at the surface, and while I wasn't sure if I would actually see it, I was lucky enough to witness a live jump.

Additionally, I was able to enter the water and snorkel alongside the dolphins, which was incredibly moving. I think it was a great experience to see the dolphins swimming in a pod up close.

Not only did we interact with dolphins, but we also swam at a spot filled with many fish, and we had the opportunity to paddle and kayak as well. It was a very meaningful time, as we could enjoy multiple activities in one outing.

I definitely want to experience this again when I come back to Hawaii.

　今回初めてイルカ大学に入学しました。
　朝イチのツアーに参加させていただきました。とても朝が早く、６時集合ということでテンション的に保つかどうかすごく心配でしたが、何の心配もいりませんでした。添乗員さんがものすごくみんなのテンションを上げるように働きかけてくれ、さらに今回の流れも細かく説明してくれるので、初めて参加される方も何も心配することなくツアーに参加することができると思います。
　そして港に着きすぐに出発すると、ものの１０分少々で野生のイルカたちが泳いでいるではありませんか！ハシナガイルカは水面を回転ジャンプする種類のようで、実際に見ることができるか不確定でしたが、生ジャンプも見ることができました。
　また実際に海の中に入ってシュノーケリングをしながらイルカと並んで泳ぐこともでき、とても感動しました。群れになって泳いでいるイルカたちをものすごい近くで見ることができてとても良い経験になったと思います。
　またイルカだけでなく、魚がたくさんいるポイントまで行って泳いだり、パドリングやカヤックの体験もでき、一度のアクティビティで複数の体験をすることができてとても有意義な時間でした。
　またハワイに来たら、ぜひ体験したいと思います。

Whale Watching Sail in Waikiki on the Honu Lani with Optional Transportation Available [Dec - Mar]

Two tailfins and numerous whale blowouts

Reviewed by: Gunnar Durén

Given the early season we had low expectations on whale spotting, but we were at least looking forward to a great boat ride on the ocean. And we sure got that.
After about 20 minutes we spotted the first whale air blowout and there were many more. Finally two North Pacific Hump Back whales surfaced and dove down again, showing their tailfins. Great experience, great weather, great boat trip.
