It was fun, but 楽しかったけど

Reviewed by: うらちー

Overall, it was a fun experience, the weather was great, and all the staff were nice. The photographer was very enthusiastic and took a lot of photos, which made me happy. However, I had thought that we would be able to dive and swim alongside the dolphins as shown in the tour photos. I was told on the bus heading to the boat that we should not dive when we see the dolphins and should only look at them with our faces in the water. This was a bit different from what I had imagined.

I did get to see the dolphins, and I understand that it’s a good rule to avoid stressing them out, but I wish that this was explained in more detail in the tour description.

全体的に楽しく、天気にも恵まれ、スタッフの方も皆さんいい人でカメラマンさんもテンション高くいっぱい写真撮ってくれて嬉しかったです。
ただ、このツアーの写真で乗っているように潜って並んで泳げると思っていたので、船に向かうバスの中でイルカを見るときは潜らないでください。顔をつけて見るだけにしてください。と言われて想像と少し違いました。
イルカも見れたし、イルカにストレスを与えないためとの事なので良いルールだと思いますが、ツアーの説明のところに詳しくそのように書いて欲しかったです。

I don't understand Japanese. 日本語通じない

Reviewed by: まちこ

I couldn't understand Japanese, and all the explanations were in English. I was helped by a Japanese woman named Chiyo, who explained everything politely, but it might be boring for those who don't understand English.

It seems that gel nails are not allowed for the swimming course, and there are no gloves available for rent. I was told to tear them off with pliers. I was surprised!

You can get one photo, but you can't choose your favorite one. There's a possibility that you'll end up with a photo where you look unattractive. Well, it's free, so I guess it can't be helped.

The activity itself only involves swimming about 20 meters twice, so I felt a bit unsatisfied because I thought I would be able to swim a lot based on the photos. I thought $200 was expensive for this, but the dolphins were cute and amazing!

日本語通じなくて、説明も全て英語。
チヨさんという日本の女性が丁寧に説明していただいて助かりましたが、英語わからない人にはつまらないかも？
一緒に泳ぐコースはジェルネイル不可でグローブも貸出無しだそうです。ペンチでちぎりとれと言われました。びっくり！
写真1枚もらえるけど好きな写真は選べません。
不細工に映った写真をもらうことになる可能性もあります。まぁ無料だから仕方ないですが。
アクティビティ自体も20mくらいを2度泳ぐのみなので写真を見てたくさん泳げると思っていたので、物足りなく感じました！これで$200は高いと思いましたがイルカは可愛くて最高でした。

Touching dolphins is truly the best! イルカタッチはやっぱり最高！

Reviewed by: おんちゃん

We were able to enter before the usual opening time and touch the dolphins. It was a bit cold for the season, and the kids were shivering a little in the pool first thing in the morning, but it seems they really enjoyed touching the dolphins. Additionally, there were plenty of interactions, such as touching turtles, feeding fish, and feeding birds, which made for a fun experience.

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

I’m on a boat and...

Reviewed by: Tyler Russell

So it all started with a super welcoming crew. The captain and both the deckhands were extremely courteous and expressed the spirit of Aloha in welcoming us aboard! Next came an explanation of what the trip would consist of, and I was like, oh yeah, this is gonna be a hoot and a half. Then we were underway on Diesel engines that sounded like the sweet purr of freedom you could only get on the open ocean. We headed out to the turtle cleaning reef, and we were not disappointed. They promised a great snorkel experience and they delivered! We jumped in the water after the best explanation of our safety and snorkel equipment and were immediately greeted by the ocean wildlife! Turtle the size of Kia souls cut in half with flippers! It was incredible. After we had our feel of the little mermaid experience, it was back to the boat where we were served libations by barista/deckhand that could rival those of a well seasoned bar! Drinks were flowing like the rays of sunshine beating down on us. We dropped sail, and cruises on the wind like seagulls on the breeze. It was a glorious experience that I will remember for years to come. When all was said and down, the sails returned to their stowed position, we sailed back to shore on those sweet Diesel engines and touched down gently on the sands of Waikiki. Your crew and company will hold a special place in our hearts as we carry the memories of good times with us. We found our beach!

We participated in the Mini Dolphin Encounter with my 6-year-old child and my husband. I was prepared for the English explanation after seeing other people's comments, but perhaps due to the rainy season and the chilly weather, there were only the three of us. At the reception, they asked if we preferred the explanation in English or Japanese, and to my pleasant surprise, we received the entire explanation in Japanese (there was a trainer who spoke Japanese). Thanks to the kind trainer, my child was initially scared but ended up enjoying it, and I was glad we participated. Even though I didn't join in, I was very satisfied because I could watch closely from the side of the lagoon!

On February 9th, our family of seven participated. We chose the option with transportation, and the pickup was smooth. Upon arrival, we boarded the boat and immediately had breakfast, which included scrambled eggs, sausages, bread, watermelon, pineapple, and drinks of coffee and orange juice—please refer to the photos. After breakfast, we enjoyed about an hour and a half of cruising. The weather was great that day, and we had a wonderful view of the streets of Hawaii and Diamond Head. As for the whales, we saw them very well. At first, there was one, and later on, two came to visit us, and we could see their tails clearly. I believe everyone who participated that day had the best smiles. I read in other reviews that some people experienced seasickness, but since it’s nature, I think it can’t be helped. We were lucky to have a calm sea cruise under clear skies, so we didn’t get seasick. This event was suggested by my wife, and I truly think it was a great decision to go. Thank you very much to all the staff for providing us with such a wonderful experience and memories of our trip.

2月9日に家族7名で参加しました。送迎付きを選択しましたが、スムーズにピックアップしてもらいました。到着し船に乗りすぐに朝食でしたが、スクランブルエッグ、ウィンナー、パン、スイカやパイナップル、飲み物はコーヒーとオレンジジュースで、写真を参考にして下さい。朝食後、約一時間半のクルージングでしたが、当日は天気も良く、ハワイの街並み、ダイアモンドヘッドも良く見え素晴らしいものでした。あと、肝心のクジラですが、本当に良く見えました。最初は一頭、最後の方には二頭がやって来てくれ、いずれも尻尾が良く見え、当日、参加した人全員が最高の笑顔だったと思います。他の人の口コミで船酔いをしたとの書き込みがありましたが、自然相手のことですので仕方ないのではないかと思います。私達は晴天の中で静かな海のクルージングでしたので、船酔いをしなかったのは、本当に幸運でした。今回のイベントは妻の提案で行くことになりましたが、行って本当に良かったと思います。スタッフの皆さん、旅の思い出として、とても良い経験をさせていただき本当にありがとうございました。

Well worth it!!

Reviewed by: Lauren

I took this tour in March as I wanted to find a tour that would take me snorkeling but not spend a half a day or more doing so. This boat trip was perfect! The catamaran took us just a short ride to swim with turtles. We saw 4 turtles and were able to get super close! Then we took the boat around and saw a TON of dolphins. The crew was awesome and this tour is great if you want a little bit of everything in just 2 hours. I would definitely do it again and highly recommend it!

1 whale and 2 dolphins (laughs) 1クジラと2イルカ(笑)

Reviewed by: こっちゃん

I actually wanted to go to Maui, but since I didn't have the time or money, I looked for tours on Oahu. I chose this tour on a whim, thinking that a smaller boat might allow for closer views than a larger one. Plus, it was a bit pricey for a morning tour to ensure I could board again if I didn't see anything. The hotel pickup was on time. I was unsure whether to wear flip-flops or shoes, but since I could leave my shoes before boarding, either option worked.

I thought we would go further out, but we only went to a point where we could see the hotels along Waikiki Beach, heading towards Diamond Head. After a while, I spotted the dorsal fin of a baby whale in the distance, and I was thrilled to see it raise its tail and dive! We stopped there and waited for it to resurface, but it never showed itself again.

We went a bit further but still didn't see any more whales, so we turned around to head back. On the way there and back, we saw a pod of dolphins swimming close enough to capture on camera. However, I was a bit disappointed that I didn't see more whales. I wondered if the larger, famous boat we passed had gone further or if the afternoon tour would have been better. I can't say for sure if my choice was the right one.

I want to feel satisfied that I saw at least one whale, but I can't shake the feeling that if we had gone further, we might have seen more. So, that's why I gave this rating. Well, I guess it's just the nature of wildlife (laughs).

本当はマウイに行きたかったけれど時間もお金も無いのでオアフ島でツアー探しました。
大きな船よりは小さいほうが至近距離で見れることもあるかと一か八かこのツアーにしました。
しかも見れなかった時に最乗船出来るように少々高い午前中のツアー。
ホテルへのお迎えも時間どおり。
ビーサンで行くか靴で行くか迷ったけど靴は乗船前に預かってもらえたからどちらでも。
もっと沖に行くのかと思いきや、ワイキキビーチのホテル群が見えるくらいの所をダイヤモンドヘッド方向に。
しばらくしたらやや遠くに子クジラの背鰭が見えて尾びれを上げて潜る所は見れて大興奮！
そこで停船し再浮上待つもその後姿を見せることはなく。
また少し先に行くも再びクジラを見ることはなく方向転換して帰路へ。
行きと帰りにイルカの群れが至近距離を泳ぐ姿はカメラにも納められるくらいの時間で見れました。
が、もうちょっとクジラを見れてれば、と思ってたので少しがっかり。
すれ違った大型の有名な船はもっと先まで行っていたのであちらのが良かったのか、はたまた午後のが良かったのか、と色々後悔とまではいかないけれど自分の選択が正解かどうかがわからない。
クジラが一回でも見れたから良しとしたいところですがあの一回が無ければもっと先に探しに行って貰えてもっと見れたのでは、などとのもやもやは消えず。なのでこの評価です。
まあ生き物なので仕方ないかな(笑)

They will help you find wild dolphins. 野生のイルカを探してくれる

Reviewed by: 38915

I participated on a sunny day in February. The staff were cheerful and bright, making it a fun experience. We were able to see wild dolphins. However, we didn't see as many as we had hoped from the photos, and the time we spent watching them was brief. This can depend on the weather and luck. On the day we participated, it was quite windy and the waves were high, which made it cold and required some stamina. Some participants experienced seasickness.

They put a lot of effort into searching for dolphins. It took a while to find them, and we ran out of time for snorkeling, but we did see whales as well.

Since our belongings got wet from the high waves, I recommend protecting anything you don't want to get wet with sturdy plastic. Also, due to the dolphin search and road congestion, the return time can be a bit delayed, so it's better not to schedule anything too tight after the tour.

2月の晴れた日に参加しました。スタッフのみなさんは笑顔で明るく楽しかったです。野生のイルカが見られました。写真で期待していたほどは見られず、見た時間は少しでした。これについては天候や運もあります。参加した日は風が強く、波も高かったので寒くて体力もいりました。参加者の中には船酔いする人もいました。
イルカ探しを一生懸命してくれます。イルカ探しに時間がかかり、時間切れでシュノーケリングができなくなりましたが、クジラも見られました。
高波で荷物が濡れたので、濡らしたくないものはしっかりビニールで防ぐことを勧めます。

We had the best adventure. After seeing so many other cruises going out looking crowded and rushed we were a bit concerned.

Great weather, even better staff.
And best of all plenty of space for all on the catamaran. We were blessed with a small group.
Short cruise out and we were already spotting turtles.
All our equipment checked, help given if needed and off we went. 2 hours of watching dozens of green sea turtles in their natural environment. AMAZING!!
having Zac in the water with his trusty surf board gave everyone a great sense of ease.
On our tour was a gentleman who didn't feel to sure in the water but the boys went out of their way to get him an extra floatation buoy and stayed close til he felt more comfortable.
I would recommend Ruski (?) and Zac and the Mana Kai tour to anyone who asked.

This is my second time participating. Last time, I only caught a glimpse of the tail towards the end of the cruise, but this time, I was able to see both the spout and the tail several times! If you go expecting something like the promotional photos, you might feel disappointed. Everything from check-in to disembarking the boat is in English, so I was a bit worried about what to do in case of an emergency, but the boat itself was large and stable, so I felt safe on board. It was great to see the views of Waikiki and the east side of Diamond Head from a different perspective.

Reviewed by: PiPi

I participated in mid-February. What I was really glad to have were the wetsuit, a large plastic bag for my belongings, and an underwater camera.

It was a cool day, and I was worried about the cold, so I rented a wetsuit for $10. Sitting in the shade of the boat was really cold, so it was definitely the right decision to rent it. My belongings were stored under the seat, but of course, waves came into the boat. Since clothes and bags got wet, it was also a good idea to bring a large plastic bag. I bought an underwater camera for this trip, and I was really satisfied that I could capture great photos and videos of the dolphins!

The Japanese guide was adorable, and the local crew members were all very friendly, making it a really fun tour! At first, we didn't encounter any dolphins and only saw whales, but in the end, we came across a pod of dolphins and were able to swim with them! I definitely want to participate again next time.

I participated from the morning of February 22, and the shuttle driver was a nice person. I chose the no-meal plan. Once on the ship, we were guided based on whether we had a meal or not. It felt like there was a designated meal time. During that time, guests without meals were left waiting. Fortunately, it was sunny, and I think we could enjoy the cruise comfortably. We were able to catch a glimpse of a mother and baby whale's backs. So, it might be better not to expect jumping or anything like that. If you're hoping to see at least their backs, there are many spots on land where you can observe them, so I feel this tour is worthwhile for those who want to enjoy the cruise without regrets.

2月22日朝からの参加で送迎のお兄さんもいい方でした。食事無プランを選択。船内へ入ると食事有無で案内されます。説明も兼ねてでしたが、食事の時間が設けられていたように感じました。その間、無しのお客さんは待っている状態です。幸いな事に晴れていてクルーズ自体気持ち良く楽しめると思います。メインの鯨も親子で背中をチラッと拝むことが出来ました。なので、ジャンピング等は期待せず行った方が良いかもしれません。背中だけでも見れたらな。という方は陸から観れるスポットも多々あるので、クルーズも楽しみたい方は後悔しないツアーだと感じます。

If I have the chance to go to Hawaii again, I would love to participate again.

天気にも恵まれ、イルカの群にも会うことができました！
亀やカラフルな魚も見れ、最高な体験となりました。
個人的には、オーストラリアのグレートバリアリーフよりも綺麗な魚たちが見れたと思います。
1ヶ月以上をかけてアジア・欧州・東欧・ハワイを巡る1人旅の最終地がハワイでしたが、その中でも思い出深い経験となりました。
参加されていた、このオプショナルツアーの会社の社長さんもとても素敵な方で、話しも楽しく、またハワイに行くことがあったら参加したいです。

野生のイルカウォッチング＆ウミガメシュノーケリングクルーズ　ジャンボスライダーやSUPも楽しめる！＜ランチ付き／ワイキキ＆コオリナ送迎／日本語または英語ガイド＞

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

I was able to see dolphins, turtles, and even whales in the distance. However, it was disappointing that towards the end of snorkeling, while I was in the restroom, my gear was put away, and I wanted to swim a bit longer.

イルカや亀、遠くでしたがクジラも見れました。ただシュノーケリングの最後の方でトイレに入っていたら、道具が片されてしまいもう少し泳ぎたかったのが残念でした。

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＞

This trip became my best memory. この旅で1番の最高の思い出になりました

Reviewed by: Bee

I participated in the Dolphin University about five years ago and had such a great time that this time I decided to join Dolphin Junior High. Last time, I joined in August, so it wasn't too cold, but this time, since I participated in February, it was chilly in Hawaii during the mornings and evenings, and honestly, the water was quite cold.

Since we spent a long time on the boat, with the wind blowing, I strongly recommend dressing warmly. Last time, I was able to see dolphins, but only from a distance, and there were few of them, so we moved by boat and dove about three times just to catch a glimpse of them. This time, I was lucky enough to swim with the dolphins for a long time after just one dive.

We were very close to them, and thanks to the dolphins coming back multiple times, we were able to see them continuously. It was truly moving to swim with the dolphins at a distance where I felt I could reach out and touch them. The weather was also great, and the water was so clear that I was able to see many fish and baby sea turtles while snorkeling.

The photographer Mike was great at creating a fun atmosphere and took lots of pictures while making everyone laugh. I realized that the vibe of the tour and how well the participants are engaged is really important. There were about 800 photos in total, and it would cost around $50 for the data, but since there were about 30-40 tour guests, the photos with us in them were just a small part, and since everyone was wearing wetsuits and goggles, it was hard to tell who was who (laughs).

Of course, there were many beautiful underwater photos, but I thought $50 was a bit steep, so I decided not to purchase them. I think if the price were a bit more reasonable, more participants would buy them. Also, I thought last time that the cleanliness of the portable toilets at the port was unbearable... It takes about one to one and a half hours to return to Waikiki after that, so we have no choice but to use the port facilities. However, for Japanese people, that toilet is quite a painful experience...

It would be helpful if we could at least be driven to a nearby restroom. This is a tour I definitely want to participate in again when I go to Hawaii next time, so I hope you will consider it. The person who joined me had never been to Hawaii before, and when I asked him what his best memory from this trip was, he immediately replied, "Dolphin Junior High!!!" (laughs) It truly became a wonderful memory. Thank you very much.

イルカ大学に5年ほど前に参加して、とても楽しかったので今回はイルカ中学に参加することにしました。
前回は8月に参加したため、そこまで寒くはなかったですが、今回は2月参加のため朝晩は冷えるハワイで、増してや海の中は正直かなり寒かったです。
船に乗って長時間移動するので、風も吹きますし、暖かい格好で行くことを強くオススメします。
前回もイルカを見ることができたのですが、遠目でしかみれなかったり、イルカの数も少なかったので3回ほど船で移動してダイブして、なんとかイルカを見れた！という感じでした。
今回はついていたのか、1回のダイブだけでずーーーっとイルカ達と泳ぐことが出来ました。
距離もとても近かったですし、イルカ達が何度も戻ってきてくれたおかげでひっきりなしに会えました。
手を伸ばせば届きそうな距離でイルカ達と泳げて本当に感動しました。
天気もとても良く、海底まで透き通って見えていたのでシュノーケリングもたくさんの魚達や赤ちゃんウミガメにも会うことが出来ました。
カメラマンのマイクも盛り上げ上手でたくさん写真を撮ってはみんなを笑わせてくれますし、このツアーはやっぱり雰囲気というか、どれだけ参加者を盛り上げられるかが大事なんだなと感じました。
写真は全部で800枚程度あり、データで50ドル程かかるとのことでしたが、30-40人ほどのツアー客がいるので自分達が写っている写真はほんの一部ですし、みんなウェットスーツとゴーグルをしているため誰が誰だかわかりません(笑)
もちろん写真は水中のものなど素敵なものが多かったですが50ドルは高いなと思い購入は諦めました。
もう少し求めやすい価格にすれば多くの参加者が購入するのでは？と思いました。
あと前回も思ったのですが、港での仮設トイレ(ぼっとん)の汚さは耐えられないレベルです…その後ワイキキまで戻るのに1時間から1時間半くらい？はかかるので港でするしかないのです。
ただ、日本人にはあれはなかなかの苦痛なトイレです…。
せめて、近くのトイレまで車で移動して頂けると助かります。
次回もハワイに行ったら絶対に参加したいツアーなのでご検討よろしくお願いします^^;
一緒に参加した彼は人生初ハワイでしたが、この旅で1番の思い出は？と聞くと、イルカ中学！！！と即答してました(笑)
本当に素敵な思い出になりました。
ありがとうございました。

【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＞

The whale is nearby! クジラは近くにいる！

Reviewed by: ダリア

This time, my spouse and I participated with our parents, a total of six people.
In the morning, we took a taxi to the location for our 8 AM checkout! It was surprisingly close and cost about $18, so I thought taking a taxi was a better deal with a larger group!
We chose a tour that only included sightseeing without meals.
The cruise lasted about two hours, and we were able to see whales, plus the ocean was really beautiful, which made both our parents very happy.
However, one point to note: since it was a large boat, we couldn't get too close, so if you're looking for a more thrilling experience up close, you might find this tour a bit lacking!

今回は私たち夫婦の両両親と6人で参加。
あさ、8時にチェックアウトのために、
私たちはタクシーを使って現地に向かいました！案外近くて18ドルくらいでしたので、
人数が多ければタクシーの方がお得だなとおもいました！
わたしたちは、食事をつけず見るだけのツアーにしました。
クルーズ時間は2時間くらいでしたがちゃんとクジラもみれ、さらに海が本当に綺麗で、両親共大喜びでした。
ただ一点。大きな船なので近寄らず、
もっと近くの迫力を求めるなら、物足りないと思ったツアーでした！
