It was my first experience with a submarine, and I was able to participate with great interest. My 4-year-old child seemed to enjoy it as well (although they got bored halfway through...).
It might be worth trying at least once.
However, I had reserved for the earliest submarine tour because it mentioned a Japanese guide, but in the end, it was an audio guide. Was there a mistake in the description, or was it my misunderstanding? If there had been a Japanese guide, it might have been even more enjoyable.
Also, there was no shuttle service, and we had to wait a good 30 to 40 minutes from the meeting time. They said they were waiting for another pickup bus, but I thought it would have been better to set the meeting time a bit later.
初めての潜水艦体験だったので、興味深く参加できました。
4歳の子供も楽しかったようです(途中から飽きてましたが・・)。
一度は行ってみてもいいかもしれません。
ですが、サブマリンツアーの一番早い時間が、日本語ガイドだと書いてあったので予約したのに、結果はオーディオガイドでした。
記載が間違っているのですか?それとも私の勘違いでしょうか?
日本語ガイドならもっと楽しかったかもしれません。
あと、送迎なしだったのですが、集合時間からたっぷり30~40分は待たされました。ピックアップのバスをもう一台待ってます、とのことでしたが、ならば集合時間をもう少し遅くしてもよいのではと思いました。

At Outrigger Reef on the Beach, you can check in, board the boat, and store your beach sandals right on the beach. They also offer commemorative photo sessions for $15. The activity starts when the staff arrives with the participant list at the designated time.
There is an area offshore where you can see schools of fish and green sea turtles, and many participants enjoy snorkeling there until they get bored and return to the boat (about 30 minutes). Life jackets are not provided during the ride. For concerns about buoyancy while snorkeling, soft foam noodles are available for use. Once everyone is back on the boat, drink orders are taken, and then you sail around Diamond Head until it's time to return. During this time, you might encounter dolphins or get soaked by big waves.
There is an emergency toilet located in the left hull of the catamaran.

This is my third time participating.
I was able to see a pod of bottlenose dolphins, which is said to be very rare♪
It seems they are a different species than the ones usually seen.
I swam with them, and a turtle was also swimming nearby.
Then, right in front of me, it popped its head up from the water and showed me its cute face, which was so exciting.
It's something you can't easily do in Japan, so I highly recommend it!

We researched extensively before selecting this excursion and it was even better than we had hoped for! We had 2 adults and two children, ages 16 and 11. One of the parents and the 11 years old had never been snorkeling before. Every member of the family had an incredible time! We would definitely recommend this excursion to anyone who wants to swim & snorkel and see some of the most incredible sea life Hawaii has to offer. It's an experience our family will remember for a lifetime!! Thanks again!! We will definitely be seeing you again on our return travels to Waikiki!!

My husband, who loves animals, participated while I observed. We were picked up by a bus around 8:30 AM, and since our reservation was at 11:45 AM, I thought we might have too much free time. However, as we watched the sea turtles, seals, and penguins in the park, the time flew by.
Aside from my husband, everyone else was couples or families, and everyone seemed to enjoy themselves. There is a designated area for observers, but it was difficult to take photos with a regular compact camera since everything was too far away. In the end, we purchased photos taken by the staff, which turned out beautifully as they were well-framed and everyone seemed to end up buying them (^_^;). The prices were $16 for one photo, $30 for two, and $40 for three.
There was also a place to grab a light snack while waiting for the return bus, which helped us manage our time well. My husband was delighted by how cute the dolphins were. The experiences of shaking hands, kissing, observing underwater, and swimming while riding on their bellies were all precious moments.
However, the observation area only had benches, with no shade, and since it was a clear sunny day, it got quite hot. I would recommend that anyone visiting bring a hat or a parasol.
動物好きな夫が参加し私は見学しました。
朝8時半ぐらいの迎えバスで予約時間は11時45分だったので時間を持て余すかと思っていましたが、パーク内のウミガメやアザラシ、ペンギンなどを見ているうちに時間はきました。
夫以外は夫婦や親子でしたが、みなさんとわきあいあいと楽しんでいました。見学者の場所もちゃんとありますが、写真を撮るには普通のコンパクトカメラだと遠くて無理でした。
結局現地スタッフが撮影してくれた写真を購入したのですが、しっかりカメラ目線で撮影されるので綺麗に写っているし、
みなさん購入してしまうようです(^_^;)
1枚$16・2枚$30・3枚$40でした。
帰りのバスまでの時間も軽食の場所があるので休憩して時間をつぶせたのでいい時間配分だったと思います。
夫はイルカが可愛かったと喜んでいました。
握手、キス、水中から観察、お腹に乗って泳ぐ、どれも貴重な体験でよかったと思います。
ただ、見学場所はベンチのみなので日陰がなく快晴だったので
暑くてたまりませんでした。見学される方は帽子や日傘があったほうがいいかと思います。

I wanted to surprise my teenage nieces, so I decided to take them on those neat underwater scooters, and they had a blast. They are 15 years old and I thought they would be bored but they were not. They were so excited!!! The scooters were pretty easy to get used to, and my nieces had an easy time in the water.
They especially liked the idea that your hair doesn't get wet while in the bubble. We didn't see any big reef formations or turtles, but we did see a lot of small fish. I would recommend taking some motion sickness pills before boarding though, it did get a little rocky out there on the boat.
Staff was very friendly and attentive towards us, my nieces thought the crew were very good looking and wanted me to point this out. My nieces were hungry afterwards and this activity is in a very good location. A lot of places in walking distance to get some lunch since we all worked up an appetite. OH AND FREE PARKING if you opt to drive out instead of taking their transportatio

They covered all my selfish wishes.
On the day of the tour, the staff called my hotel room before the meeting time to confirm, which was very considerate. Thanks to that, I was saved from almost oversleeping.

I had an adventure at Sea Life Park Hawaii where I got to play with dolphins. I touched the dolphins, kissed them, held onto their dorsal fins while swimming, and observed their movements underwater while snorkeling. I had always wanted to touch a dolphin after watching the shows, so experiencing it was thrilling. The local instructor was very cheerful and made the experience fun and interesting. There were also quite a few older couples from various countries and backgrounds, but everyone was smiling and enjoying themselves.
However, since it was my first time snorkeling, I was so focused on diving that I couldn't see much underwater (sadly). I wore a swimsuit with a rash guard on top and shorts on the bottom during the experience. They provide life jackets to wear while participating. Even in Hawaii, the water is cold, so wearing a rash guard is good for sun protection as well. By the way, it's important to remove earrings and rings beforehand as they can become dangerous.
There are warm showers and changing rooms available. They also sell DVDs of the experience and photos. My husband, who wasn't initially enthusiastic, said afterward, "That was super fun!" The park also has sea turtles and seals, and they put on dolphin shows. You can enjoy a full day there. It creates wonderful memories in Hawaii.
シーライフパーク・ハワイ イルカと遊べるアドベンチャーを体験しました。
イルカに触れる・イルカとキス・背びれに捕まって泳ぐ・シュノーケルで水中でのイルカの動きを観察する。
イルカのショーを見てて、いつか触ってみたいと思っていたから、それが体験できて感激です。
インストラクターの現地の方も、とっても陽気な方で、楽しく面白く、指導してくれます。
結構年配のご夫婦もいて、国や人種も様々ですが、みんな笑顔で楽しめます。
ただシュノーケルが初めてだったから水中の様子は私は潜るもに必死で良く見れずじまいだった(悲)。
私は(女)体験中は水着で、その上にラッシュガード、下は短パンを履いてました。体験中はライフジャケットを渡されるので着用します。
ハワイといえども水は冷たいからラッシュガード着てた方が日焼け対策もできるしいいと思います。ちなみに、ピアスやリングなどは凶器になってしまうから、体験前に外しておきます。
温水の出るシャワー、更衣室もちゃんとあります。体験している様子をDVDで販売してくれたり、写真を販売してくれます。
最初は乗り気じゃなかった旦那も体験後には「チョー楽しかったねー」って。
パーク内には海ガメやアザラシも居たり、イルカのショーとかもやってます。
1日楽しめちゃいます。

I participated in the tour that started at 3 PM on the day I arrived in Hawaii. There were more foreign tourists than Japanese, allowing me to experience a sense of being in a different country in Hawaii, which is usually filled with Japanese visitors.
We took a boat to reach the submarine waiting offshore, but many people experienced seasickness, so I recommend taking motion sickness medication if you're prone to it (the submarine itself was stable). There were many colorful fish on the ocean floor off Waikiki, and we also saw sharks. I was excited about the rare experience of riding in a submarine. The view of Diamond Head from offshore Waikiki was also beautiful.
ハワイに到着した日に15時からの回で参加しました。日本人観光客よりも外国の人が多く、日本人が多いハワイで異国気分を味わえました。
沖に待機している潜水艦までは船で行くのですが、船酔いされている方も多く、酔いやすい方は酔い止めをお勧めします(潜水艦は揺れは大丈夫でした)。ワイキキ沖の海底にもカラフルな魚がたくさんおり、その他サメなども見られました。潜水艦に乗るという滅多に出来ない体験に興奮しました。またワイキキ沖から見るダイヤモンドヘッドも素敵でした。

The Atlantis submarine is available in other regions as well, but I think Hawaii has a greater variety of marine life to encounter.
To board the submarine, you take a short cruise on a boat. From there, you transfer to another vessel and dive into the deep sea.
That day, I was satisfied to see a sea turtle swim right in front of me and a school of fish.
However, it was a bit disappointing that the return cruise took a little longer than expected.
潜水艦アトランティスって他の地域にもありますが、ハワイは他よりも出会える海の生き物たちが多いと思います。

I participated for the first time at my mother's request. It was so cute to see and touch the dolphins right in front of me, and even give them a kiss. Since participants line up and experience it one by one, the time for each person is a bit short, but there were dolphin adventures happening across the pool, so I didn't get bored while waiting. This time, we also had a ray encounter included as a bonus, and surprisingly, it was just my mother and me! We experienced snorkeling in the park's pool, but since it was completely visible from the outside, it felt a bit like a spectacle, but it was a great experience. The road to Sea Life Park had beautiful scenery! I think it's worth a visit at least once.

The tour we participated in was something that my daughters went on about a week ago and were very impressed by. Hearing this, my husband and I eagerly joined, believing without a doubt that we would get to see dolphins. The tour description did mention that since it involves nature, there are rare occasions when you might not see them. However, we didn't see a single dolphin, and only a few fish. I was really disappointed to see such a big difference from what we expected. We did receive a half-price voucher for the next time, but I don't think we'll participate for a while.
That said, the performance of the staff was very good.

Moreover, since it was the birthing season, we also met several baby dolphins. Their earnest jumping was very adorable and entertained us.
Additionally, while we were returning to the harbor, six dolphins swam alongside our boat for over five minutes. This was truly the best part. The tour guide was also very pleasant, which made it even better. The food and drinks kept coming, making it a tour filled with happiness.

I participated in a dolphin encounter with my 1 year and 3 month old daughter. We touched the dolphins' backs, gave commands for them to shake hands, and even kissed them. Personally, it was my first time touching a dolphin directly, so I was satisfied with this rare experience. My daughter, being just a toddler, seemed a bit suspicious while wearing the snug life jacket and it appeared to be too early for her to enjoy it. Additionally, my pregnant wife was unable to participate due to regulations, but I understood the reasoning behind it, as the dolphins' fins could hit quite hard. The expected age for participating children seems to be around preschool age and up. I would like to try this again when the kids are older.
Also, spectators can only enter a bit further away, so it seems you can't see the details very well. (The photo was taken with a 55mm lens.) It might be good to have binoculars or a telephoto lens around 300mm. By the way, individual close-up commemorative photos are taken by the staff and sold later.
On that day, it was crowded and there were many Japanese people, but we were divided into English and Japanese teams to enter one pool. At that time, a child over there...

なお、見学者はやや離れた場所までしか入れないので細かい所まで見えないようです。(写真は55mmレンズで撮影)双眼鏡や300mm位の望遠レンズがあるといいかもしれません。ちなみに個別アップの記念写真はスタッフが撮影して後で販売されます。

It was SOOO unbelievably easy too because they make all the accommodations for you. Once at the boat site, you jump on and set off. I would recommend the earliest time available. The earlier, the smoother the waves FYI. So once out there, you are just in awe. There are sharks. AND you are about to get in a cage surrounded by them! I was so scared but this is something I knew I had to do. So i sucked it up and the moment you put your head under the water.... you are stun
