2.5-Hour Waikiki Guided Turtle Snorkel Tour, Snacks & Drinks - Holokai Catamaran

great underwater views when snorkelling

Reviewed by: Charlie3

activity instructions were not clear as there are 2 Outrigger hotels on Waikiki beach- maybe that can be made clear for future bookings.

safety instructions were good and snorkelling excellent with 2 helpers in the water to show where the turtles and fish were and keep you in the area. Waves were picking up when we left and I'm not a good sailor, so I didnt have any snacks or drinks . Sails were raised and all the crew were very good for the sail around the harbour.

An unforgettable sight. 忘れられない光景

Reviewed by: まいまい

We were blessed with good weather, but for a while after setting sail, there were no signs of dolphins, and I started to lose hope, thinking it was just nature. Then, during our last chance, we encountered a large pod of about 60 dolphins! We were able to swim quite close to them and even witnessed them jumping, which was incredibly exciting.

On our way back, we had another amazing encounter with a mother whale and her calf at a surprisingly close distance! I was moved by the adorable sight of the baby whale mimicking its mother by flapping its tail. At the sea turtle spot, I was also thrilled to swim alongside a quite large sea turtle.

Even if you're not a strong swimmer, the instructors were very attentive, making for a safe and enjoyable experience!

Thank you very much! ^ ^

天候に恵まれましたが、出航してから暫くイルカの影も形もなく、自然相手だしと諦めモードに。
ラストチャンスの回遊で60頭ぐらいのイルカの大群に遭遇！かなり近くで泳げ、ジャンプする姿にも巡り会えて大興奮。

大満足で帰り途中、かなり近めの距離でクジラの親子に遭遇！赤ちゃんクジラが親を真似て尻尾をパタパタする可愛らしい姿に感激。ウミガメスポットでもかなり大きなウミガメと一緒に泳げ大満足でした。

泳ぎが苦手でもインストラクターの皆さんがしっかりとアテンドしてくれ、安心＆楽しい時間でした！

ありがとうございました^ ^

I was able to see whales, but... クジラは見れたけど・・・

Reviewed by: TAK

The pickup arrangements at the hotel were poor, and it took a long time to get on the bus.

Whether or not you can see whales really depends on luck...

This time, I was able to see the back and tail fins about two or three times. I think it was more impressive from the bottom deck?

A friend who participated on a different day mentioned that they missed seeing a whale because there was an announcement while they were eating, so that's something to take personal responsibility for. There are plans that include meals and various experiences, but it really depends on what you want to focus on.

ホテルでのピックアップの段取りが悪く、なかなかバスに乗れなかった
クジラが見える見れないは本当に運しだいなので。。。

今回は2～３回背中と尾ひれが見れました。
一番下のデッキで見たほうが迫力あったかな？

別の日に参加した知人は食事をしている途中にクジラ発見のアナウンスがあり見逃してしまったと言っていたので、そこらへんは自己責任ということで。
食事や、各種体験付きのプランありますが、どこに主眼を置くかってところですね。

Waikiki Snorkel with Turtles Cruise with Beers & Cocktails - Ke Kai Catamaran

Amazing trip! Excellent value and an experience we will remember for ever

Reviewed by: Will C

Wow! We had such a good time on the boat this morning. Was convenient to get the boat at 10.30 just after breakfast from right on the beach. Crew were friendly and just a short journey out to Turtle Canyon! The crew were fun and helpful, and when we got to Turtle Canyon we were lucky enough to see 6+ turtles, many fish and the crew/ lifeguard/ guide pointed out a few extra interesting things. We had plenty of time to be in the water looking at the turtles, most people returned to the boy long before they had to and enjoyed a few drinks in a beautiful setting.
We looked out for whales or dolphins on the way back but didn’t get lucky, Aparently they are there though and can sometimes be seen.
They provided life jackets which were good to snorkel with as don’t have to take too much effort to stay floating and can easily deflate if you want to dive down.
Not was not too crowded, we had only about 15 people but they did say they can do up to 49 people and I imagine that would be very crowded!
At turtle canyon there were quite a few other boats but if you were patient it wasn’t that bad in the water snorkeling around, just watch out for any collisions with other swimmers!
The crew were good and kept an eye on us in the water at all times too, letting people know if they were going too far or anything and also pointing out where the turtles are!
In summary, something we would love to do again and would certainly recommend to any other people visiting Hawaii!
There isn’t much shade on the bot was one thing with nothing - so take a hat if it’s a sunny day!
Crew were very generous providing drinks on board too! I’d be surprised if anyone managed to have all three free drinks though after the snorkel (no alcohol before swimming) it’s only 20 mins back to the beach.

I encountered a large pod of dolphins! イルカの大群に逢えました！

Reviewed by: くるころるんるん

The tour took place in Hawaii under unusually low and rough weather conditions. Right after departure, many people started feeling seasick, but it turned out to be a lucky day, as we encountered a large pod of dolphins that swam leisurely beside us and even surfaced, which the crew described as a miracle. During snorkeling after the dolphins, we also had the rare chance to see a ray.

The weather changed rapidly, with rain, sunshine, and clouds, but thanks to that, we were able to see a double rainbow. The strong winds made it difficult to stop shivering on the boat. There was no place to change out of wet swimsuits, so we had to dry off with towels and put on a jacket while still wet. Those who are not confident in the cold should be cautious on cloudy days. For those worried about seasickness, I recommend starting with a shorter dolphin tour.

ハワイでは滅多にない気温が低く荒れ気味の天候の元でのツアーでした。出航直後から船酔いする人続出でしたが、イルカの大群に出会えた上、イルカ達がずっと私達のそばを悠々と泳いだり、水面に浮かび上がって来たりすらクルー曰く奇跡のようなラッキーデーでした。イルカの後の亀とシュノーケリングの際も珍しくエイに出会えたりしました。
途中雨が降り、晴れ間が出たり曇ったりと目まぐるしく天気が変わりましたがお陰でダブルレインボーまで見られました。
風が強くて船上で体の震えが止まらず辛かったです。濡れた水着を着替える場所は無いのでタオルで拭いて濡れたまま上に上着を羽織るしかありません。寒さに自信のない人は曇りの日は要注意です。船酔いの心配な人はまずは時間の短いイルカ中学に入学する事をお勧めします。

We boarded the boat as a family of four with our 2-year-old and 11-month-old baby! We were excited and a bit nervous wondering if we would see whales, but we enjoyed exploring the boat and taking in the scenery without getting bored. Since it was the rainy season in February, it was a bit chilly, so warm clothing was necessary.

The staff were wonderful; they played with the kids and smiled at them, gave us paper caps as gifts, and showed us videos and photos of whales and dolphins they had filmed in the past. They were very kind to the children.

As for the whales, we were able to see the spouting whales, their backs, and tails! When we saw them, everyone cheered, and it was more moving than we expected! I want to go again when the kids are older.

2歳児と11ヶ月の赤ちゃんをつれて家族4人で乗船しました！
クジラ、見れるかな〜〜とドキドキワクワクしながらも、船の中を散策したり、景色を楽しんだり、飽きることなく楽しめました。
２月の雨季の時期だったので肌寒かったので防寒具は必要でした。
スタッフのかたも子供たちをみるとみんな笑顔で遊んでくれたり、紙製のキャップをプレゼントしてくれたり、過去に自分たちが撮影したクジラやイルカの群れの動画や写真などを見せてくれて、子供たちにとても優しかったです。

肝心のクジラですが、潮吹きークジラの背中や尾びれ、見れました！
みれた瞬間はみんな大歓声で、思ったよりも感動しました！！
子供たちが大きくなったらもう一度見に行きたいと思います。

I was able to meet a dolphin. イルカに会えました

Reviewed by: ４人家族

I was happy to fulfill my long-time dream of swimming with dolphins. I was able to see them up close. It was cold, but the wetsuit I borrowed was helpful. If there's one thing I want to mention, it's that since I rented a car, I met at the designated location, but the meeting point, the "public restroom," was quite hard to find. It was still dark at the meeting time, and other participants' bus was delayed, which made me quite anxious, wondering if I was at the wrong meeting point. In the end, I found out by asking someone from another tour company. I had asked during the confirmation call the day before, "Will I be able to find the restroom easily?" but the response was vague.

長年の夢（？）だった、イルカと泳ぐことができて嬉しかったです。しっかり見ることができました。寒かったのですが、お借りしたウエットスーツが役にたちました。一つだけ言っておきたいことがあるとしたら・・レンタカーのため、現地集合にしたのですが、集合場所の「公衆トイレ」がかなり分かりづらかったです。集合時間はまだ暗かったし、他の参加者のバスが遅れてきて、集合場所が違うのではないかと、かなり不安な気持ちになりました。最終的に、他のツアー会社さんの方にお聞きして判明しました。前日の参加確認の電話で「トイレってすぐに分かりますかね？」と聞いておきましたがその辺のお返事も曖昧でした。

Reviewed by: ともりんこ

On the morning of the day, when the shuttle bus arrived at the location, I was told that it was canceled. The day before, there had been bad weather, and as a result, the sea was murky. I changed my reservation to the latest time at 3 PM, thinking it might be better in the afternoon. However, the visibility was only about a meter. I felt that this was unacceptable, especially since I had paid over 15,000 yen. I think it would be completely different if I went on a nice day. I wish there had been a half-price refund system.

当日朝、送迎バスが現地に到着したときに、キャンセルになりましたと言われました。前日天候が悪い日があり、そのため海が濁ってるとのこと。午後ならいけるかもしれないと予約を変更して一番遅い3時になることに。しかしながら透明度がメートルほどでした。一万五千円以上払ってるのに、これはないなぁと思ったりもしました。天気の良い日に行くと全然違うんですよね、多分。半額バック制度があればよかったなー

The optional tour we had planned was suddenly canceled due to bad weather, so we made a last-minute reservation to participate that morning. The sea was very pleasant, and we enjoyed the beautiful scenery. After a while, we encountered a mother whale and her calf, along with a pod of dolphins! They were very close, and we could hear the sounds they made when they spouted water. They stayed near the surface for a long time, allowing us to watch them for quite a while, which was incredibly moving! While the whale was diving, we enjoyed watching the dolphins jump, making for a very fulfilling experience.

2.5-Hour Waikiki Guided Turtle Snorkel Tour, Snacks & Drinks - Holokai Catamaran

Amazing sea life and sail

Reviewed by: Nancy

We took the 12 pm tour and boarded the catamaran from the beach. It only took 10 minutes to motor out to the snorkel site so it was not far from shore. There were 3-4 other boats with groups in the same area but there was plenty of space. We snorkeled until everyone had returned to the boat. Then the crew raised the sail and we had a great time coasting over the beautiful blue water, returning just inside of the 3 hour advertised time. Free snacks (chips, granola bars) were provided and you could buy drinks.

The crew were funny, friendly, and gave clear instructions. They kept watch over us during the snorkel. They regularly checked up on each guest after the snorkel to make sure everyone was comfortable. I wear glasses, and have a -5.25 prescription. They had prescription goggles on board that were -6.0 and I was able to see so clearly without my glasses! We saw a group of spinner dolphins on the way out, and I saw 5 different sea turtles below us during the snorkel. Several of them surfaced to breathe close by which was amazing! We saw a baby octopus, and lot of beautiful fish. The crew member in the water with us was good to caution people to give the turtles their space which was important.

Advice: you are barefoot to board the boat and on the boat, and you store your bag and shoes in cubby holes on board. It's good to bring a sun shirt so your back doesn't burn. You do get cold while snorkeling, but less so if you keep moving. Bring a towel and warm clothes to wear after if you tend to get cold. Hats will fly away easily so you need one with a draw string. They provide sunscreen if you forget your own. I took gravol before the trip, so I'm not sure if I needed it!

2.5-Hour Waikiki Guided Turtle Snorkel Tour, Snacks & Drinks - Holokai Catamaran

Wonderful, given the circumstances :)

Reviewed by: Kelsy

I booked this tour back around August of 2018 for a February 2019 trip. The original date was supposed to be Sunday morning on their first tour; however, they reached out to us on Saturday morning to notify us rescheduling might be required, as the island was going to be hit with an extremely severe storm over the weekend. Sure enough, Sunday morning came, and it was determined the waters were too unstable to enjoy a safe snorkeling experience. We were able to re-book to Monday afternoon, with the hopes the waters would mellow out and clear up by then. We arrived at the meeting spot, and right as we were about to disembark, we were notified the waters were still too dangerous. We were then given the option to either reschedule, or go sail with them for an hour or so, and get a refund on the snorkeling portion. Given we were leaving the following day, we were unfortunately unable to reschedule, and opted for the sailing. The captain, Ryan, and the rest of the crew were all wonderful, and made it a memorable experience. We were out sailing for around an hour and a half, and the views were breathtaking. They also provided everyone a few free drinks to help make up for the inconvenience, and the free snacks provided were much appreciated. While we never got to enjoy the snorkeling itself, I can vouch for the company and their customer service. Thank you for turning lemons to lemonade! Also, in February it was a bit chilly, so I would recommend a light jacket, and definitely sunglasses :)

2.5-Hour Turtle Snorkel Sail Tour from Waikiki Beach - Cold Brew Coffee, Snacks & One Drink Included

Ok...but not the best experience.

Reviewed by: Hawaii visitor

The boat staff were very nice, but the weather before this activity wasn’t ideal, so that is part of why this review isn’t stellar. Also, the tour said that snorkelling equipment including fins was provided. Fins were not. They are actually very helpful for staying buyouant, especially in rougher waters like we had, so we were counting on them. The area was VERY busy, with many tour groups out there, so it wasn’t a very pleasant snorkelling experience - as you kept getting kicked in the face. I wouldn’t recommend this - find a nice spot and go on your own.

When the weather is nice, you can clearly see Waikiki and Diamond Head, which feels great. At first, I couldn't see anything at all and almost gave up, but they finally appeared towards the end. However, while I did see whales, they were far away, so it wasn't as impressive as what you see in the brochures; it was more like, "Is that it?" Well, since it was a large ship, I didn't experience any seasickness, so I think that was a good thing.

天気が良いとワイキキやダイヤモンドベッドがクッキリと見えて気分が良いかと。最初は全然見えなくて諦めかけましたが、最後の方でやっと現れました。でも、確かにクジラは見えたけど遠かったので、パンフにあるような迫力ではなく、あれか、という感じです。まあ、大型船なので船酔いもなかったので、良かったかなと思います。

Reviewed by: みーみ

**[Experience Review]**
I participated at the end of January, having seen reviews beforehand, and thought, "If I get to see it, that would be lucky☆". As the reviews said, I couldn't see it, but since it was raining until the boat departed, there was a rainbow throughout the tour. Once we got out to sea, there wasn't a single cloud in the sky, and we were able to see a very magical rainbow (and it was a double rainbow! Plus, it was huge!) against the blue sky and vast ocean. Personally, since I got to see the rainbow, I found it quite enjoyable (laughs).

**[What I Liked About This Tour]**
The breakfast was more delicious than I expected. There were bread, white rice, scrambled eggs, sausages, and more... I thought it was very Japanese-friendly with ketchup and soy sauce available.

**[Advice for Future Participants]**
I recommend boarding the boat as soon as possible after getting off the bus. The window seats are popular, so everyone was vying for them. They take your picture before boarding and come around to sell it during the trip. I don't remember the exact amount, but it seemed to be around $20 to $30. By the way, we prepared a tip before disembarking, but there was no tip box, and we didn't have a chance to meet the staff or captain when getting off, so there was no timing to give it.

I participated at the end of January, but the maximum temperature was 22 degrees, and it was very cold. Right after boarding, I was able to see sea turtles and whales, but we struggled to find dolphins for four hours while being rocked by the boat. Finally, we spotted dolphins, but by then, I was down due to the cold and seasickness. In the end, I didn't get to enter the water and just watched the dolphins from the boat.

**[What I Liked About This Tour]**
The staff's determination to find dolphins is impressive! True to their word, while other tours were turning back to the harbor due to the lack of sightings, they took us here and there in search of dolphins.

**[Advice for Future Participants]**
If you are prone to seasickness, please make sure to take anti-nausea medication! They cannot sell medication on board, but they do sell seasickness prevention wristbands for $20. However, even with the medication and the wristband, I still felt nauseous. I wore a wetsuit for an additional fee (was it $10 or $20?), but it was really cold. Being exposed to the north wind for four hours was truly freezing. After coming out of the water, a man from another group became so pale that it was concerning, and he couldn't stop shaking.

On the way there, the bus provided explanations and taught us about Hawaiian history, so it wasn't really a relaxing atmosphere (in both good and bad ways). However, on the way back, there was an announcement about photo sales as soon as we got on, but after that, the bus was quiet enough for a nice nap. I forgot the price of the photos, but payment was either on the bus or at the office, so if you don't have any business at the office, I recommend bringing a bit of cash. I ended up needing quite a bit of cash for the seasickness band, wetsuit, photo costs, and tips. I'm glad I had it on me (laughs). Regarding tips, there was an announcement before disembarking saying, "If you think it was good..." and my husband and I paid $20, but it seemed that many people either didn't tip or only tipped around $5.

【実際に体験した感想】
1月末に参加しましたが最高気温が22度でとても寒かったです。
乗船後すぐにウミガメやクジラは見れたのですが
肝心のイルカがなかなか見つからず船に揺られること4時間。
ようやくイルカが見つかりましたが、その頃には私は寒さと船酔いでダウン。
結局、私は海に入ることはなく船上でイルカウォッチングになりました。


【このツアーで気に入ったところ】
必ずイルカを見つけます！というスタッフさんの意志がすごいです。
その言葉通り、ほかのツアーはあまりの見つからなさに港へ引き返している中
イルカを見つけるためにあっちへ行きこっちへ行きしてくださいました。


【これから参加する人へのアドバイス】
船酔いする人は必ず！本当に必ず酔い止めの薬を飲んでください。
酔い止めの薬を販売することは出来ないので・・・と
船酔い防止のリストバンド（20ドル）を販売してくれますが
酔い止めの薬+リストバンドでも私は酔いました。
追加料金（10ドル？20ドル？）でウェットスーツを着てましたが
とにかく寒いです。4時間も北風に打たれると本当に寒いです。
海から上がったあとは別の組の男性が、こちらが心配になるくらい
血色がみるみる悪くなり震えが止まらなくなってました。

行きのバスは説明＆ハワイの歴史を教えてくださっており
とても寝られる雰囲気ではありませんでしたが（いい意味でも悪い意味でも）
帰りのバスは乗ってすぐに写真販売の案内がありましたが
その後はゆっくり寝られるくらい車内が静かでした。
写真の値段を忘れてしまいましたが、バス車内でのお会計
もしくはオフィスにてお会計でしたのでオフィスに行く用事のない方は
少しばかりの現金を持ってくることをオススメします。
私は船酔いのバンド+ウェットスーツ+写真代+チップを支払ったので
結構な現金が必要になりました。持っててよかった～（笑）
チップに関しては下船前に「よかったと思ってくださる方は～」と
アナウンスがあり私と主人とで20ドル支払いましたが
意外とみなさん払われてないor5ドル程度の方が多かった印象です。

【冬季限定！1/3～3/21】ホエールウォッチ　スターオブホノルル号　1500名乗船可能なハワイ最大のクルーズ船！軽食＆ドリンク付き＜ワイキキ送迎可＞

I was able to see whales. クジラ見れました

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

During the first half of the cruise, I was able to see whales in the distance from the top deck, although they appeared small. While I was having lunch on the first floor, a whale suddenly appeared much closer. I've heard that whale watching can be a matter of luck, but I think we were definitely lucky that day. The scenery was breathtaking, and the buffet and cultural experiences were great as well.

クルーズ前半は最上階からクジラが遠くに小さくですが何度も見れました。そして一階でランチを食べていたら、突然クジラが大きく見えました。ホエールウォッチングは運不運があると聞きますが、その日はきっと運が良かったのだと思います。景色も最高の眺めでしたし、ビュッフェや文化体験も良かったです。

You should definitely go at least once. 一度は行ってみるべき

Reviewed by: しげっち

It was farther away than I had expected, but I'm glad I was able to see it safely. I felt like not being able to see the first half at all was part of the performance, though.

期待していたよりは遠距離からではありましたが、無事に見られてよかったです。前半全く見れなかったのは、演出のような気もしもしましたけど。

ホエールウォッチ　マジェスティック号　横揺れが少ない最新テクノロジー採用の次世代クルーズ船＜アロハタワー発／12/26～3/31＞

I saw a whale! クジラ見えました！

Reviewed by: しばしばわんこ

I arrived at the pickup location earlier than the scheduled time, but since it was just after 10 AM, it was extremely crowded. It was difficult to find our bus among the crowd. I think it would have been helpful if the staff had held a sign that said "Veltora," and it also took time to find the bus because it was parked a bit far away. Although I was told that the voucher was not needed, I was instructed to hand it to the staff member who came to pick us up.

The tour itself was very interesting, and I was thrilled when we spotted a whale. I was on the third deck of the boat, but the snacks were only available on the second deck, which was a hassle since I had to go down the stairs each time to get something. I think it would have been better if there were snack stations on both the upper and lower decks. I would have also liked some drinks other than water.

お迎え場所には時間より早く着いていたのですが、朝10時過ぎということもあり大変な混雑でした。その中から自分たちの乗るバスを見つけるというのは難しかったです。担当者がベルトラと書いた看板でも持っていてくれたら良かったと思いますし少し離れたところにバスが停まっていたせいもあり見つけるのに時間がかかりました。またバウチャーはいらないとの事でしたが迎えに来た担当者に渡すように言われました。
ツアー自体は大変おもしろくクジラが見えた瞬間には興奮しました。
船の中では3階にいたのですが、軽食が2階にしか置いてなくいちいち階段を降りて取りに行くのが面倒でした。上と下の２か所にあればよかったと思いました。水以外の飲み物も欲しかったです。

イルカ中学　野生のイルカ＆ウミガメシュノーケリングクルーズ　高速ボートでイルカ遭遇率アップ！＜少人数制／ワイキキ＆コオリナ送迎可／日本語／ランチ付き＞

I felt healed! 癒されました！

Reviewed by: アヤクロ

This is my third time participating. I always join when I go to Hawaii because I find healing with the dolphins and turtles. I was able to see the dolphins and turtles again this time, but since the schedule is tailored to them, the early morning pickup is tough (of course). If you plan to use this program, you need to adjust your schedule before and after to avoid getting unwell.

今回で3回目の参加です。
イルカとカメに癒されるのでハワイに行くときは必ず参加しています。
今回もイルカとカメに会えましたが、彼らに合わせたスケジュールなので、(もちろんなのですが)朝のピックアップが早いのが大変です。
このプランを利用する場合は前後のスケジュールを調整して臨まないと、体調を崩します。
