It took about 20 minutes by boat to reach the submarine, and we enjoyed the journey as well ^ - ^
It's not often that you get to experience being on a submarine, and I participated with seven friends, filled with excitement. The best part was that we were lucky enough to see a sea turtle! ♡
The staff's service was also very good, and I was very satisfied!!

I was a bit anxious about participating alone since most people were in pairs, but the crew members were all really nice, and I'm glad I joined. I got to see dolphins and swimming honu (turtles), which really boosted my excitement! I also challenged myself to try stand-up paddleboarding (SUP). It was quite difficult, but I managed to stand up and paddle (^ -^)v.
The cheeseburger on the boat was delicious, and I was really happy to see hula up close (since I’m learning hula). I was on cloud nine (laughs). I want to participate again! (*^o^*)

There were only my husband and I who were Japanese, and the rest were all foreigners, but the staff supported us with their limited Japanese, which was very reassuring.
However, there was a group that got seasick, so they temporarily returned to the shore.
The catamaran sailing was pleasant and I highly recommend it; the snorkeling equipment was well-stocked, and they checked on us multiple times to see if we were okay.
I would like to use this service again, but I regret not knowing the typical tip amount and think I may have given too little.
日本人は私たち夫婦だけで、他は外国人ばかりでしたがスタッフは片言の日本語でフォローしてくれて、とても安心でした。
ただ船酔いしたグループがいたので、途中一旦もどり下船していました。
カタマランのセーリングは気持ちよくおすすめです、シュノーケル機材も充実していて何度も大丈夫か?と聞いてくれます。

Barely arrived on spot, shark fins started to show around our boat. That alone was already impressive and exciting!
While in the cage, you get to admire them gracefully swim around and under the cage... beauty!
Few tips:
- Waterproof phone pouch with wrist lanyard recommended to take underwater videos, we're so glad we had one! Just make sure not to live the whole experience through your phone ;)
- Even if you're not sea/motion sick, I suggest you have a ginger chew or two (Chimes brand are good). This will help settle your stomach as it can get bumpy under there.
Big thanks to our guides, very chill and knowledgeable!
PS: we also got to see dolphins splashing and following our boat on the way back, that was also priceless!

We thought that as this tour was so cheap it would be substandard. Wrong!!
This tour was exactly what we paid for. To snorkel with the green sea turtles and that's what we did. We were able to take our own food and drinks onboarding (the paperwork said there would be ice and cooler bags, but that wasnt the case) which didnt bother us too much. Brewster and Max made sure we saw and swam with the turtles and had plenty of opportunities for photos. After pur snorkeling, they took us for a sail in the catamaran for 2p minutes before taking us back to sure. It was a fabulous day.

It was very beautiful, and I was able to observe the seabed slowly. Along the way, I also saw sea turtles and many fish, which made me satisfied.
The boat to the submarine was very rocky, and I ended up feeling seasick. On the way back, we stopped on the water for about 10 minutes before heading to the port for photo sales, which made me feel sick again.
Overall, I was satisfied with the experience that I wouldn't normally have.

The lecture is given in Japanese at the beginning, so there are no issues with understanding how to do it.
You can't really move the scooter by yourself, but you can see the fish up close!
I was able to catch a glimpse of a sea turtle!
However, while the scooter part is fine, you need to wait on the boat for about an hour, which can make you quite seasick, haha.
If your turn for the scooter is later, I think the seasickness will go away by then.
Since there is air around your head, you can dive without stress, which is a new sensation.
日本語で最初にレクチャーしてくれるのでやり方は問題ないです。
スクーターはあまり自分で動かせませんが、魚たちを間近で見ることができます!
ウミガメをちらっとみれました!
ただ、スクーター中はいいのですが、船の上で1時間くらい待つ必要があるのでだいぶ酔います笑
スクーターの順番が後ならそこで酔いはなくなると思います。

This is a must do adventure, and well worth the price. I was impressed and pleasantly surprised at the 1-to-1 ratio of divers to BOBs in the water. They really make sure everyone is comfortable in the BOBs and are doing okay throughout the dive. The 1 hour of free time is basically during the time others are in the BOBs. They provide snorkeling equipment if you want to hop in the water during that time. We had a gray and windy day, so it was quite cool on the boat during the off time. So if your weather is not the best, consider bringing a windbreaker.
So glad to hear you had such a great time! We will be sure to let our crew know about your experience. Thank you again for coming out with us! We appreciate all referrals and especially your review! Mahalo!

It was a course without Japanese guidance (although it seems there is Japanese guidance available through headphones, which I didn't use), but I understand enough English, so it wasn't a problem. Everyone else was foreign, and I was a bit fed up with the number of Japanese people in downtown Honolulu, so it was nice. There was a sense of universality when the Canadian child next to me asked, "Where's Nemo?" Seeing the submarine surface near the boat was exciting. I enjoyed seeing beautiful fish, rays, and turtles (it would have been even better if sharks had appeared), and it was my first experience diving into the ocean from a submarine, which was interesting. It was a smaller submarine with small windows, but I think it was sufficient.
日本語案内ではない時間のコースでしたが(ヘッドフォンで日本語案内はあるようだが使用せず)そこそこ英語がわかるのでまあ問題なし。
自分達以外は外国人で、ホノルルの街中が日本人だらけで少しウンザリしていたのでちょと良かったです。

沖で船の近くに潜水艦が浮かんでくる様子はウキウキしました。
きれいな魚やエイやカメがみられて楽しかったですし(サメでも出て来たらもっと良かったけど)、潜水艦で海に潜るという体験が初めてのことで面白かったです。

My husband and I did this excursion together. He loves scuba diving, so he enjoyed it, but not as much as he does diving. I, on the other hand, get claustrophobic diving, so I LOVED this because I didn’t have to have anything touching my face/a mouthpiece. While under water, we saw tons of fish and sea turtles. In addition to scuba scootering, we got to snorkeling while we waited our turn for the scooters, so it was like two excursions in one. The staff were all great too!

When we arrived at the port, a suspiciously named boat called "Dangerous" came to greet us (laughs). Although they didn't speak Japanese, I could feel the staff's consideration. There was a manual in Japanese.
As soon as we set off, we saw a large group of dolphins swimming! The boat rocked quite a bit, and since I had read reviews, I took motion sickness medication beforehand. By the return trip, about half the people were feeling groggy, so the medication is essential.
Also, it was cold! Perhaps due to the weather, the sea at the activity site was chilly, and the return boat was extremely cold, so it's necessary to prepare for that. There were quite a few sharks. We could see them in groups for about ten minutes. At first, it was thrilling, but I gradually got used to it.
It was a great experience to snorkel with sharks, something you don't get to do often.

船はかなり揺れます、口コミを見ていたので酔い止めを飲んでいきました。

A short trip to the offshore destination means you get to spend most of the tour time in the water with the amazing fish and turtles! We even saw dolphins! Riding on the front of the catamaran was also a highlight.
Fantastic crew - very friendly and terrific with kids! Our daughter was a bit hesitant about going in the water so one of the crew let her ride on the lifeguard surfboard and she still got to enjoy the whole experience.
Highly recommended if you’re looking for a couple of hours’ snorkeling experience with great views and sensational Hawaiian sea-life!

You will drive to the tour office, where you will watch an instructional video on how to ride the scooter. After that, you will head out to sea on a boat and ride the scooter. A staff member will accompany you on one scooter. Since the staff are locals and speak very little Japanese, it's recommended to pay close attention to the video to learn how to operate the scooter. In the water, many fish will come to the bait, which is a lot of fun. We even encountered a sea turtle!!!

Since the waves are less impactful, it was recommended to depart early in the morning, so I booked the 09:00 tour. It was expensive to include a shuttle, so I chose the plan to meet at the location with a rental car. It took about an hour to arrive from Honolulu. The reception and tour guide spoke only English, but there were also Japanese informational signs, so it wasn't inconvenient.
We arrived at the point about 20 minutes after departure, and many sharks gathered around the boat. When we arrived at the point, the waves were high, and I thought motion sickness medication was essential. Each group of 7-8 people entered the cage. I brought an underwater camera, but due to the waves, I couldn't take good photos. However, I was moved by the sight of sharks gracefully swimming right in front of me.

Swimming with wild dolphins was AMAZING! We struggled to find spinner dolphins early May 15, but Danielle and the entire crew were patient and determined to spot other types of dolphins. We found spotted dolphins, in deeper waters, which are faster but amazing to see in the wild. The crew including Yogi, Tyler, and a couple others helped our ship of 25 or so passengers stay safe and calm in the water knowing exactly what to do as the dolphins and wild life swam all around us. Making sure the swimmers and dolphins stayed safe was at the forefront of our dive. We relocated to another swim spot to see fish and turtles in shallow waters and we got to play on the slide and use paddle boards the crew provided us with. Jade, the photographer/ videographer, was amazing in capturing our time on the boat and in the water. This crew was fantastic and my fiancé and I would recommend this excursion 10/10 as a MUST DO. The feeling iI got seeing this animals in their natural environment, so willing to let us be close to them , is something I will never forget. We purchase the pictures from Dolphins and You and I can’t wait to get home to upload them!
