I thought it would be lucky if I could see it, but I was actually disappointed that I couldn't. I kept wondering if it would happen, and then it just ended. I guess it was nice to enjoy the cruise, though. I would like to reboard if possible, but I was told I need to make a reservation by phone, and I'm hesitant because I'm not confident in my English skills.
見れたらラッキーぐらいでしたが、実際見れなくてがっかり。くるかくるかと思いながらおわってしまいました。クルーズを楽しんだと思えばまぁ良かったのかな。できれば再乗船したいのですが、電話予約しないといけないと言われ、英語力に自信ないので、躊躇しております。

I boarded with children aged 5, 3, and 0.
It's a comfortable tour for families!
I didn't mind the rocking at all.
Since it starts early in the morning, we brought sandwiches and snacks.
Snacking while looking at Diamond Head and Waikiki Beach was the best.
Unfortunately, we only caught a glimpse of a whale from a distance.
However, we encountered a pod of dolphins and saw dozens of them!
It was amazing!!
I think it's great for elderly people and families with children.
5、3、0歳の子供と乗船しました。
子連れには快適なツアー!
揺れも気になりませんでした。
朝は早いので、サンドイッチやお菓子を持参。
ダイヤモンドヘッドやワイキキビーチを眺めながらのスナックは最高でした。
残念ながらクジラは遠目にチラッと見えた程度。
ただ、イルカの群れに遭遇し何十頭も見れました!
感激!!
高齢者やお子様連れには良いと思います。
Thank you for using Star of Honolulu. We are truly sorry that you were unable to see the whales clearly. However, we are very pleased to hear that your family enjoyed the experience. We will continue to strive for improvement, hoping that you will join us again on your next visit to Hawaii.

I have to admit, even though I knew I would be swimming safely in a cage, I was still a little nervous. But the crew did a good job of putting my mind at ease. These guys really know their stuff! They've been swimming with sharks and surfing in Hawaii their whole lives. They are like walking encyclopedias!
The tour was fun from start to finish. We got to see whales on the way to and from the dive site (and we could hear them when we were in the water!), we saw the Lost beach where the TV show was filmed, and the view of the North Shore coastline was breathtaking.
Last but not least, the sharks. There were at least five in sight when I got in the cage. It was a dream come true getting to be so close to them and watch them swim around us. And the best part is that this tour only takes out a maximum of 6 people so we got to stay in the cage the whole time!

There were four couples, including us Japanese.
We made the reservation on-site, and everything went smoothly.
There was one staff member who spoke Japanese, but they left to join a sandbar tour partway through, so we received the explanation about the Sea Bob as soon as we arrived at the boat dock.
All explanations on the boat were in English, including how to equalize pressure. It was manageable, but it did make me quite anxious at times.
During our tour, there were five Sea Bobs available. We dove in pairs, but since many participants were in pairs, only one person could prepare at a time, which meant those waiting had to stay on the boat for a bit.
My husband went first, but the other Sea Bob didn't arrive, so I ended up waiting on the boat for over 10 minutes. To make matters worse, they tried to guide the next person, so I hurriedly said, "I haven't gone yet!" and they quickly assisted me, but in the end, I experienced the Sea Bob for less than 10 minutes, including preparation time.
Still, we saw plenty of turtles, the ocean was beautiful, and we encountered a pod of dolphins, so overall, I was satisfied.
While waiting for our turn on the Sea Bob, we could go snorkeling. All explanations for that were also in English. I hope to convey in this review that snorkeling is also available.
As mentioned before, motion sickness medication is absolutely essential!
The stationary boat sways more than you can imagine.
Photos are expensive, but I think they are worth it.
We received a set of our photos and pictures of the turtles, about 20 in total.
It was a unique experience, and if I hadn't had to wait on the boat, it would have been perfect.
日本人は私達夫婦を含め4組でした。
予約は現地で行いましたが何も問題なく催行されました。
日本語を話せるスタッフが1名いましたが、途中からサンドバー付きのツアーについて行ってしまうのでシーボブの説明は船の乗り場に到着後すぐに説明してもらいます。
船上では全て英語の説明でした。耳抜きの仕方なども全て英語。それでも何とかなりますが結構不安になったりします。
私たちのツアーの時はシーボブは5台でした。2人1組で潜りますが(ペアで参加してる方が多いため)準備は1人ずつしか出来ず一緒に潜れないため後から乗る方は船上で少し待ちます。
私は主人が先に行きましたがもう1台のシーボブが来ず結局船上で10分以上待たされました。おまけに次の方を案内しようとされたので慌てて「まだ乗ってない!」と伝えたらすぐに案内してもらえましたが結局シーボブを体験出来たのは準備も含め10分もないくらいでした。
それでもホヌはたくさん見れたし海は綺麗だしイルカの群れにも遭遇出来たのでトータルでは満足です。
シーボブに乗ってない待機中はシュノーケリング出来ます。それの説明も全て英語です。この口コミでシュノーケリングも出来る事を伝えられたらと思います。
既出ですが酔い止めは本当に本当に必須です!
止まってる船上は想像以上に揺れます。
写真は高いですが買う価値はあるかなぁ…と思います。
自分達の写真とホヌの写真がセットでした。20枚くらいです。
中々出来ない体験でしたので船上で待たされた事がなければ最高です。

The weather was nice, and we were able to see a big rainbow along the way! The whales didn't show themselves much, but they did blow water and revealed their large bodies above the surface! It was moving! They continued to blow water, but they didn't show themselves much after that; however, this time they showed their big tails! It seemed a bit difficult to see them from the front like in the advertisements, but I'm glad I woke up early to participate! For breakfast, there were bread, sausage, scrambled eggs, rice, and several types of fruit.
天気も良くて途中大きな虹も見ることが出来ました!肝心のクジラはなかなか姿を見せてくれなかったけど、潮を吹いて大きな体を水面から見せてくれました!感動しました!その後も潮を吹くけどなかなか姿は見せてくれませんでしたが、今度は大きな尾っぽを見せてくれました!広告になっていたような頭から姿を見るのはちょっと難しそうですが、早起きして参加してよかったです!朝ごはんはパン、ソーセージ、スクランブルエッグ、ライス、フルーツ数種類ありました。
Thank you for using Star of Honolulu. It's truly unfortunate that you weren't able to see a whale in its entirety. However, I hope you had the opportunity to witness it spouting several times, making your cruise worthwhile. We would love for you to join us again when you visit Hawaii in the winter.

We had a wonderful time on our whale watching excursion! We were picked up by the bus - it was early/on-time. We made it to the dock, got our picture taken (didn't buy it, it was too pricey!), then on to the boat. The boat was huge and there was plenty of seating inside and on the top deck. We opted out of lunch, which I think was for the best since me and my husband didn't feel that great on the ride out in the open water. But it did look nice and drinks were available for purchase. Once we got out on the water, we started seeing some whale blows and headed more in that direction. We then saw dolphins swimming next to our boat which was just as exciting as seeing the whale! But what was even cooler was once we got closer to the whale, marine biologist said that what we were seeing was the dolphins were playing with the whale, which he hadn't seen in 4 years! He was very informative. We also enjoyed some live music which seemed the bring the whales and dolphins around more! We probably saw about eight whales in all, ten dolphins and one sea turtle. Overall, it was a wonderful experience, aside from feeling a little seasick.
Aloha! We're so happy to hear you enjoyed your whale watch cruise with us! Thank you very much for sharing your wonderful experience. We hope to have the pleasure of welcoming you aboard again soon. Mahalo and a hui hou (until next time)!

Before departing from Japan, the weather forecast predicted cloudy rain, but it turned out to be sunny, as we say in Japan. The pick-up was smooth, and after boarding, we had a light snack while the captain gave an explanation. Then we had free time and went to the upper deck. After about 20 minutes, the captain announced that we were heading towards 1 o'clock, and we could see the spouting. After that, every 20 minutes or so, we were able to see the spouting and tails, and I was able to take photos with a telephoto lens. On the way back, we were also lucky enough to see dolphins. The boat accommodated 1,500 people, and I didn't feel much rocking, so it was comfortable. The upper deck can be quite windy and chilly, so having a windbreaker would be a good idea.
日本出発前は、曇り雨予報でしたが、結局は、日本でいう晴れでした。送迎もスムーズで、乗船後、軽食を採りながら船長の説明があった後、フリーとなり、屋上デッキへ。20分くらいして船長から1時の方向とアナウンスがあり、潮吹きが見えました。その後も20分くらい置きに、潮吹き、尻尾を見ることができ、望遠レンズで写真も撮れました。帰りには、イルカも見ることが出来、ラッキーでした。船も1500人乗りで、揺れもそんなに感じること無く快適でした。屋上は、風が強く肌寒いので、ウインドブレーカーがあるといいです。

This has been on my bucket list for quite some time and I couldn't have asked for a better experience! The crew is so nice and made everyone feel so comfortable and were very knowledgeable. They only take up to 6 people so you never even have to get out of the cage until the tour is over if you don't want to! We were in there for about 45 minutes getting to see several sharks and it turned out to be a really calming, cool experience. I would definitely recommend these guys, I was sold when I found out that it was a small group and that we would have a lot more time in the cage.

The sea was beautiful and the breeze felt wonderful! During the underwater scooter experience, the instructor was right there with us, so there was no confusion, and we got to see fish up close as well as a sea turtle!
The instructor for the experience didn't speak Japanese, but it wasn't a problem at all. They seemed to understand simple Japanese, so I felt no anxiety.
However, the boat rocked quite a bit, so I think motion sickness medication is a must. I tend to get seasick easily, and I forgot to take my medication, which turned out to be quite a situation, haha. My husband, who usually doesn't get seasick, was also affected quite a bit, so that's the only downside!
海がきれいでとても風が気持ちいかったです!水中スクーターの最中はインストラクターさんが付きっきりなので迷うこともないですし、まじかでお魚も見れてウミガメも見れました!!

ただ、船が結構揺れるので酔い止めは必須だと思います。私は元々酔いやすいのに、酔い止め忘れてえらいことになりました笑
旦那さんも船酔いあんまりしない人なのに結構やられてたので、難点はそこだけですね!!

When I went to the harbor, there was a large cruise ship docked, and just seeing it made my heart race with excitement. I opted for a simple whale watching plan, but the breakfast buffet also looked delicious.
For the first hour, we couldn't see any whales or even dolphins. The upper deck felt quite shaky, and since we couldn't see any whales, the kids started to feel seasick and were complaining about wanting to go back because they were scared of the rocking (I think motion sickness medication is a must).
I thought we might not see anything today, so I went down to the first-floor deck and relaxed in a chair. Suddenly, we spotted a mother and calf whale off Waikiki Beach! For about 30 minutes, we were able to watch them spout water and leap dramatically out of the water with their tails.
The kids, who had been grumbling, were suddenly thrilled and seemed very satisfied with the cruise. Winter in Hawaii can often be cold for pools and beaches, so I really recommend whale watching!
港に行くと大きなクルーズ船が停泊していて、それを見ただけでも心躍る気分でした。
シンプルなホエールウオッチングだけのプランにしたのですが、朝食ブュッフェも美味しそうでした。
始めの1時間ほどはクジラどころかイルカも見えず。屋上デッキは結構揺れが感じられ、クジラも見えないし子供たちは船酔いしてきたかも…とか、揺れるの怖いから帰りたい…とかグズグズでした(酔い止め薬は必須かと思います)
こちらも今日は見えないのかもと1階デッキまで降りて椅子に座りながらのんびりと過ごしていたら、ワイキキビーチ沖で親子のクジラ発見!30分ほどの時間ゆっくりと何度も潮吹きや尾びれをダイナミックに水上に跳ね上がる姿を見ることができました。
グズグズしていた子供たちも一気に大興奮で大満足のクルーズになったようです。

I did this tour with my friend who is not from the island. It was her first time on a submarine and she was amazed by how beautiful it was underwater. The boat ride to the submarine was very smooth and because the weather was so nice we decided to sit on the top deck. The view from the deck was amazing. Just as we departed we were able to see a sea turtle swimming next to our boat. The submarine ride itself wasn't so bad we were able to see turtles, sharks, and a lot of fish. It was a bit cold so I do recommend bringing a jacket since you will be underwater for quite some time. My friend and I really enjoyed the tour and we would love to go back and try it again!

I really liked how this whale watch cruise kept you entertained the whole time. Unfortunately we didn't spot too many whales on the day I went, but the cruise experience itself was still really nice. The lunch buffet was good and fresh. Then they offered activities to do while on board, like hula lessons, lei making, and ukulele lessons, which makes this the perfect cruise for families with little ones. These activities weren't just for kids though, many of the adults were participating too. It was great to be able to roam around the entire boat and getting to see the whales from the top deck, which is a lot higher than any of the other whale watch cruises!

The view from the boat was amazing. The island looked so beautiful from a far. I've been living here my whole life and I never realized how beautiful it was. The food they provided on the boat was very delicious. If I wasn't so full I would have definitely gone back for more. Sadly, I was not lucky enough to have spotted any whales, however, I did get to see spout a couple of times. Even though I wasn't lucky enough to spot any whales I was still very entertained. The music and activities they provided on the boat was so much fun. I got out of my comfort zone to participate in hula dancing. I was super embarrassed but I still had a lot of fun.

It was great. Saw lots of fish and a sea turtle. Was hoping to see a Whale, but they were gone on the day we went.

I participated with my 3-year-old and 5-year-old children. The staff were very attentive, and we all had a great time! However, swimming with the dolphins was still a bit difficult for the kids, so we watched from the boat. Even for adults, it can be tough if you're not used to swimming. If you're confident in your swimming skills, it's amazing to see the dolphins swimming around up close multiple times!
There are also plenty of fun activities like slides, kayaking, cheeseburgers, and hula dancing! One suggestion would be to have smaller gear sizes available for the kids.
3歳と5歳の子供を連れての参加でした。
ずっと面倒見の良い方ばかりでみんなで楽しむことができました!!ただ、イルカと一緒に泳ぐのは子供達にはまだ難しかったです。船上で見ていました。
大人でも泳がなければならないので慣れていないとキツイです。泳ぎに自信があれば間近でイルカが何度も泳ぎ回るので最高です^ ^
それ以外にも滑り台やカヤック、チーズバーガーにフラダンスと楽しむポイントはたくさんです!!
注文としては子供達のギアのサイズももう少し小さい物を用意してほしいです。
Thank you for your comment. When your child is a bit older, please come back for a rematch. We also appreciate your valuable feedback. We look forward to seeing you again, so please come and visit us.
書き込みありがとうございます。お子様がもう少し大きくなられたら是非またリベンジにいらしてください。貴重なコメントもありがとうございます。是非またお待ちしていますので、遊びにいらしくてださい。

From the pickup location, we took a bus to board at Honolulu Harbor, where the captain welcomed us. If you look up a little, you can see other cruise ships and planes in the sky (these are passenger planes from Honolulu Airport). As we departed the resort, we headed towards Waikiki while passing container ships, resort ships, and Coast Guard vessels. Just this alone gives you a feeling of being on a sightseeing cruise.
From here, we went to a point where whales are known to be, waiting for them to surface for air. I didn't know this myself, but whales don't stay at the surface all the time, and they don't go to various places just to be found. We went out to the side of the boat and searched for whales. But don't worry! When a whale appears, they announce it over the loudspeaker in a clockwise direction. It's okay if you're not good at English. People will quickly move to the right or left. Once a whale dives, it won't surface for more than 20 minutes, so even if you see one, you might not see it multiple times. I was lucky enough to see them twice this time. However, there is a law called the 100-yard rule (keeping a distance of over 100 yards from the whales), so you can't see them up close. When I saw them the second time, one happened to surface right next to the boat, making it look huge. (In this case, the rule is to turn off the engine to avoid harming the whale.) You won't necessarily see them every time. It's best to book on a sunny day according to Hawaii's weather forecast.
ピィクアップ場所から バスでホノルルハーバーに乗船時に 船長が出迎えくれ顔を少し上げれば 他のクルーズ船 空には飛行機(ホノルル空港旅客機です)と 正に
ザ リゾート 出港すると コンテナ船 リゾート船 コートガードの船見ながら ワイキキ沖を目指します。これだけでも遊覧船気分です。ここからクジラのいるポイントに行き クジラが息継ぎで 海面に現れるをまちます。私自身知らなかったのですが クジラはずっと海面居るわけではなく クジラを追い求めて色々な場所に 行くわけでは ありません。船の側舷に出て ひたすら クジラを探します。でも 心配しないでください。クジラが現れると時計回りの方向を館内放送してくれます。英語が苦手でも大丈夫です。人が一気に右や左に移動します。1度潜ると20分以上 浮上しないため クジラに会えても 何回も見られ訳ではありません。私は今回 2回会えました。ただ 法律で 100ヤードルールがあるらしく(クジラとの距離を100ヤード以上離す)間近で見られ訳ではありません。2回目合えた時 たまたま 船の直ぐ側に浮上したため 大きく見えました。(この場合 クジラを傷つけないようにエンジンを切るのがルールらしい) 毎回 必ず見られる訳ではありません。ハワイの天気予報晴れの日に予約必要です。
Thank you very much for boarding with us this time. We sincerely look forward to welcoming you aboard again when you visit Hawaii.
この度はご乗船頂きまして、誠に有難うございます。またハワイにお越しの際には、ご乗船頂けますよう、スタッフ一同心よりお待ち申し上げます。

As we boarded the boat and set off, we spotted dolphins swimming in the distance. I was excitedly wondering if we would see a whale next! I gazed out at the sea, but it took a while for one to appear. While enjoying a different view of the streets of Waikiki and Diamond Head, we floated on the water... and then, could it be a whale?! I noticed a splash of water rising up. And finally, a whale jumped high out of the water!!
I want to see it again!
船に乗り少しすると遠くの方でイルカが泳いでるのを発見。
次はクジラか⁉︎とワクワクしながら海を眺めましたが、なかなか現れてくれませんでした。
ワイキキの街並みやダイヤモンドヘッドを別の角度から見たりしながら、海の上をプカプカ…
とその時、クジラ⁉︎水しぶきが上がっているのを発見しました。
そしてついにクジラの大ジャンプ‼︎
もう一回見たいですね〜
