Reviewed by: shin

The day after arriving in Honolulu, I eagerly participated, but surprisingly, there were few fish, and it ended up being just a view of a decaying sunken ship and a fighter plane. I was a bit disappointed...

ホノルル到着の翌日、期待して参加しましたが、意外にも魚が少なく朽ち果てた沈没船や戦闘機を眺めるだけで終わってしまった。ちょっとがっかり、、、

ウミガメシュノーケリング　ホロカイ・カタマラン号　高確率でウミガメに会えるタートルキャニオンへ！ソフトドリンク&スナック付き＜3時間／英語／ワイキキホテル発＞

It was an incredibly fun activity!!! 最高に楽しいアクティビティでした！！！

Reviewed by: もりもり

I had an incredibly fun experience with the activities. I thought the meeting time was until 8:30, but people started gathering around that time. I had read in reviews that there were hardly any Japanese people here, but that you could manage even without speaking English. However, there were a few groups of Japanese people besides myself, and there were also some groups speaking English, so I asked them to help translate.

When it was time, the woman at the reception said, "Follow me!" and guided us to board the Holokai Catamaran. It turns out you have to be barefoot on the yacht. Also, since boarding is from the beach and not the dock, if you wear pants that shouldn’t get wet, you will almost certainly get wet when boarding. I recommend changing into your swimsuit at this point.

I was able to see two sea turtles, a mother and her baby. They came up to the surface several times, but I missed seeing them. When the sea turtles are spotted, the divers will say, "Come on!!" so you will almost certainly encounter them. Other tour groups were also at the same spot. It was stated that fins were available for a fee, but everyone was given them for free. I wonder if that has changed?

After snorkeling, we enjoyed sailing with the sails catching plenty of wind. The outboard motor was lifted, so it was completely sail-powered. We sailed close to Diamond Head. During sailing, snacks were free, but drinks were for purchase. I felt a bit seasick from the waves while snorkeling, and since the boat was still rocking during sailing, I thought I would get seasick again. However, while chatting with the group that helped translate, I didn’t feel seasick at all. Interestingly, the locals were drinking beer and alcohol quite freely. I wonder how they don’t get seasick...

Especially after snorkeling, the sailing was refreshing and felt great. If you’re not worried about seasickness, I think enjoying a beer would be the best.

I thoroughly enjoyed both snorkeling and sailing.

最高に楽しいアクティビティが体験できました。
集合は、8:30までかと思ったら、8:30になったらパラパラと人が集まってきた感じでした。
ここの体験談で、日本人がほぼ皆無だが、英語ができなくてもなんとかなるというのを見ていたのですが、私以外にも何組か日本人のグループがおり、英語を話していたグループの方もいたので、その人達に声をかけ通訳の代わりをしてもらいました。

時間になったら受付の女性の方が「Follow me!」と言って乗船するホロカイ・カタマラン号まで案内してくれました。
ヨットの中では裸足でないと駄目だそうです。
そして乗船は桟橋ではなく砂浜からなので、濡れては行けないズボンを履いていくと乗るときにほぼ確実に濡れます。
この時点で脱いで水着になっておくことをお薦めします。

ウミガメは２匹の親子が見れました。
何度か水面に上がってきたそうですが、自分は見そびれました。
ウミガメが見えたらダイバーの方が「Come on!!」って教えてくれますので、ほぼ確実にウミガメに出会えるでしょう。
そして、他のツアーのグループも同じポイントにいました。
フィン（足ヒレ）は有料と書いてありましたが、全員無料で貸してくれました。変わったのかな？

シュノーケリングのあとは、帆にいっぱい風を受けてセーリング。
船外機は引き上げられているので、完全に無動力です。
ダイヤモンドヘッドの近くまでセーリングしてくれました。
セーリング中は、スナック菓子はFree。ドリンクは有料。
シュノーケリング中に波に乗って若干船酔い気味で、セーリング中も揺れているのでこのままでは船酔いすると思い、波風に当たりながら、通訳をしてくれたグループの方々と喋っていたら、船酔いは全くしなかったです。
その点、現地人であろう方々は、ビールや酒をガブガブ飲んでいました。
酔わないんだろうか・・・。

特にシュノーケリングの後のセーリングは、シュノーケリングの疲れを癒やしてくれて気持ちよかったです。
船酔いが心配なければ、ビールも飲めて最高だったと思います。

シュノーケリングとセーリング、どちらも十分に楽しめました。

aquarium 水族館

Reviewed by: まきんぼ

I participated with my son, who is slightly taller than 92 cm. I was really worried about the height restrictions and what would happen if they said something, but we were able to board without any checks at all. This might have just been for this time, though.

The ladder to the submarine is steep, so children who aren’t good at climbing up and down in parks or playgrounds might feel a bit uneasy.

Once you dive, it really feels like an aquarium, and it’s hard to experience the sensation of being on a submarine. That was a blind spot for me. My son got bored quickly since we often go to the local aquarium, which was disappointing. The adults enjoyed it, though. We were lucky to see a sea turtle! But I did get seasick.

All seats were by the window with Japanese commentary. I think choosing the premium option at this time was the right decision.

92cmよりやや大きめくらいの身長の息子と参加しました。身長制限のこと、何か注意されたらどうしよう！と気が気じゃなかったのですが、全くチェックせずに乗船できました。今回だけかもしれませんが。

潜水艦へのハシゴは急なので、公園や遊び場などで上り下りしっかりできない子供はちょっと不安かもしれません。

潜ってしまうともう、まさに水族館といった感じで、潜水艦に乗っている！という臨場感は味わいにくいですね。盲点でした。
よく近所の水族館に行っているので、息子はすぐ飽きてしまって、残念でした。
大人は楽しめました。
ウミガメが見れました。ラッキー！
でも、船酔いしました。

日本語解説付きの全席窓際でした。この時間のプレミアムを選んだのは正解だったと思います。

I was able to meet many dolphins. たくさんのイルカに会えました

Reviewed by: su70

The pickup was at 5:50 AM.
Just as the rumors said, Julie was amazing! She was very cute and full of energy, and thanks to her, the tour was a lot of fun!
I was feeling uneasy due to lack of sleep, jet lag, and being prone to seasickness, but I thought I could manage with some motion sickness medication.
The boat didn't sway too much, but after we got into the water for a while, I started to feel seasick.
However, I forgot about feeling sick because I was so focused on taking pictures of the dolphins, and I even saw baby dolphins!
When we returned to the boat to move to the sea turtle point, I remembered that I had been feeling sick.
The sea turtles swam really close to us, and there were so many of them; it was truly moving.
On the way back, I completely crashed and slept the whole time, but I think it was a great tour!
The crew members were all really nice. It was the best.

Since it was cold, I definitely recommend borrowing a wetsuit (everyone in our group borrowed one).
I also think it's a good idea to bring a bath towel (it gets cold after you take off the wetsuit).
You'll be swaying on the sea for about three hours, so motion sickness medication is a must. I want to participate in this tour again after somehow overcoming seasickness.
I was also happy to receive the group photo via email right after the tour! 😊

The guys on boat really do a great job. We had a lot of sharks around and great memories made. We will be coming back again for sure. Only wish a few other types of sharks would have joined us. A hammerhead or tiger shark would have been a treat. I studied sharks in Oceanography for 3 years. So know a ton about sharks. Loved every second of being in the water with them.

Reviewed by: Kaguya

It was my first time on a submarine, and it was nice, but I was a bit disappointed that I didn't see as many fish as I expected. I thought, "Is this it?" However, I did get to see sea turtles. In terms of seeing fish, the quality is much lower than at an aquarium, so I think it's best to consider riding the submarine as the main attraction. I was expecting to see more fish, so I feel like it was a bit of a waste for this price.

潜水艦に初めて乗る、それは良かったのですが魚が思ったより見れずに、あれ？こんなもの？？といった印象ではありました。ただ、海亀も見ることができます。水族館よりずっと魚を見るということに関しては質が落ちるので潜水艦に乗る！というのをメインに考えるといいかと思います。私はもっと魚が見れると思っていたのでこの値段でこれは少し勿体なかったかなと思っています。

Reviewed by: リッキー

I read the reviews carefully before participating. Since it was the children's wish, I thought just riding in a submarine would be enough. As expected from the reviews, the view was mostly colorless and not very clear, but I was satisfied to see sea turtles and sharks. In the second half, my younger child (first grader) got bored, but I think it was a good experience overall. Also, the boat ride to and from the location felt like a cruise, and the scenery was nice, which added to the value.

口コミ等よ〜く読んで参加しました。
子供達の希望だった為、潜水艦に乗った経験だけで良し。と思っていました。
口コミからの想定通りほとんどカラーの無い見通しの悪い景色でしたがウミガメやサメにも会えて満足でした。

It's a great experience for three generations, including seniors and those in their 70s. Highly recommended! 年長さんと70代の３世代での参加です。おすすめです！

Reviewed by: ぴょんぴょん星人

I found this review very helpful, so I’d like to share my thoughts as well.

I participated with my 6-year-old daughter, who just turned six, and my parents in their 70s, making it a three-generation outing.

Renting a wetsuit was essential, especially for slim individuals, children, and the elderly. It gets surprisingly cold floating in the sea for a long time without a wetsuit, and after seeing the dolphins, when the boat moves to the snorkeling spot, it’s really cold with the wind on a wet body. By the way, it was sunny at the end of June. Everyone on the trip was wearing one.

My daughter wore a swimsuit, a short-sleeve rash guard, rash leggings, and a rented wetsuit that was long-sleeved and shorts. Even with that, she was shivering and had blue lips after getting out of the water. I thought maybe I should have gotten her a thicker, warmer long-sleeve and long-pants rash guard. Since children are just floating and not swimming hard, they get colder more easily.

After snorkeling, my daughter was so cold that she wanted to take off her wet swimsuit immediately, so she quickly changed into her regular clothes on the boat while shivering, put on a windbreaker, and finally stopped shivering once she wore a down jacket. I think it would be reassuring to bring a compact ultra-down jacket from Uniqlo for children who get cold easily.

A children's pool towel with a hood and snaps is convenient for changing anywhere. A super absorbent, quick-drying, ultra-thin chamois towel was also very handy. No matter how many beach towels you have from the hotel, it’s never enough.

By the way, my daughter could do a face-down flutter kick and had her first snorkeling experience at Hanauma Bay the day before. My husband went into the sea first, and the staff helped lower my daughter from the boat, where my husband caught her below. From the boat to the water's surface, it’s close enough that you can sit and your feet won’t reach, but it’s not a scary height. Everyone else jumped in from standing, but since we were last in line, my mother and I sat down and slipped into the sea. They also provide floatation devices. The support and encouragement from the staff were experienced and made me feel really safe while snorkeling.

I recommend the dissolvable motion sickness tablets. I usually get seasick even with a float, but this time I was perfectly fine.

Juri, the class representative, was just like a class representative should be—very caring and someone you can rely on. I was really satisfied with the thoughtful consideration and kindness she showed, and I’m so glad I participated. The bus ride was refreshing and fun, with a very clear guide. I made truly wonderful memories.

I will definitely choose Dolphin Academy again next time! Thank you very much!

今回、こちらの口コミをとても参考にさせていただきましたので、私の感想も少しのせてみますね。

6歳になったばかりの年長さんの娘と、70代の両親と３世代での参加です。

ウェットスーツのレンタルは必須でした。特に細身の方。お子様やお年寄り。必須です！
海で長時間浮かんでいるのも、ウェットスーツが無いと、思いのほか寒くなってくるので耐えられないのと、イルカを見た後、船がシュノーケルスポットへ移動する時も、濡れた体で風を受けるので、ウェットスーツ着ていないと寒くて無理です！
ちなみに6月末で晴天です。　
参加者全員着用してました。

娘は水着+半袖ラッシュガード+ラッシュレギンス+レンタルのウェットスーツは長袖半ズボンで、それでも海から上がるとガタガタ震えて唇青くて。。
もっと上下厚手の保温タイプの長袖長ズボンラッシュにしてあげれば良かったかな～くらいな感じです。子供は特に浮かんでいるだけなので、一生懸命泳がないから余計寒いのですね。

シュノーケルが終わると、娘は寒すぎて、濡れた水着をすぐに脱ぎたがりましたので、船上で震えながらもパパッと普段着に着替え、防風ウィンドブレーカーをはおり、更にダウンジャケットでようやく震えが止まった様子。
寒がりなお子様にはコンパクトなユ○クロのウルトラダウンみたいなのを是非念のためお持ちになると安心だと思います。

フードやスナップのついた子供用のプールタオルは何処でもお着替えが出来て便利。
タオルも超吸水、超速乾、超薄のセームタオルが便利でした。ホテルのビーチタオルでは何枚あっても足りません。

ちなみに娘は顔付ばた足が出来る程度で、前日にハナウマ湾で初めてシュノーケルを経験した所。
パパが先に海におりて、船上からスタッフの方に娘を抱き下ろしてもらい、パパが下で受け取る形。船から水面は、座って足は届かないけれど、かなり近いです。皆さん立って足から飛び降りる感じですが、順番の最後だったので、私や母は座ってから、足からスルッと海に降りました。怖くない高さです。
浮き棒等貸して下さいます。
サポートも声掛けもベテランで、本当に安心してシュノーケル出来ました。

舐めるタイプの酔止めはおすすめです。普段浮き輪でも酔う私ですが、今回はバッチリでした。

学級委員のじゅりさんが、まさに学級委員って感じで、とっても面倒見がよくて思わず頼りたくなる本当に素敵な方で、細やかな配慮と優しい気配りで、こちらに参加して本当に良かったと大満足でした。
バスの中でも爽やかで楽しくて、とても分かりやすいガイドをして頂きました。本当に素敵な思い出が出来ました。

また次回も必ずイルカ中学を選びます！本当にありがとうございました！

West Oahu Snorkel Cruise with Dolphin Watch, Kayak, SUP, Waterslide & Lunch

Fantastic Morning Dolphins and You Ocean Fun Cruise!

Reviewed by: Cathy, Pittsburgh

We had a great morning cruise with Dolphins and You. The local crew (certified life guards and professional entertainers!) were very friendly and full of energy. They explained everything in both English and Japanese since there were quite a large number of Japanese tourists on our 40 person tour. There was music and dancing on the way to the spinner dolphin site. We sat at the back of the boat and enjoyed the sun and sea air; thank goodness we had lots of sunscreen! I wear glasses and there were prescription masks on the boat so I could see everything clearly.

The crew-led Hawaiian chant and orchid offering when we entered the dolphin site brought us good luck. The crew went in the water with us and pointed out several pods of dolphins swimming right by. I wanted to stay with the dolphins longer, but we had another scheduled stop. At the snorkeling site, a sea turtle swam right under our group and there were lots of fish all around. The inflatable water slide, “surfboard” and kayak added to the fun. For lunch we had cheeseburgers on taro buns with bags of chips — very tasty. The crew sang and danced a couple of hulas on the way back; a perfect ending to a great morning!

We drove from our hotel, arrived at the Waianae Boat Harbor early, and were a little concerned when we didn’t see any signs for Dolphins and You. However, a bus with Dolphins and You on the side pulled into the parking lot right where they said to meet at the specified meeting time. Be sure to take Dramamine if you think you might get motion sickness. Several people on the cruise got sick, even though I didn’t think it was very rough. I took a Dramamine before we left on the Dolphins and You cruise and was fine (I had gotten sick on a previous snorkel trip to Molokini off of Maui). Definitely APPLY SUNSCREEN early and often...the sun is very strong on the water.

West Oahu Snorkel Cruise with Dolphin Watch, Kayak, SUP, Waterslide & Lunch

A morning on the *Swim with Dolphins Ocean Fun Cruise.*

Reviewed by: Bruce Randolph

We’ve been on snorkeling cruises in the past (some out of Waianae Boat Harbor) but never with this company. We visit Hawaii often (my wife was born and raised in the islands) we view island activities with a critical eye. This was a super dolphin/snorkel trip. The cruise is on a smaller boat, which has the advantage of offering a smaller group of people, a more intimate experience, and a little more adventurous ride - I like all three. Staff on these boats are there to 1. Offer safety 2. Offer service and 3. Offer fun and adventure. The Dolphin’s and You staff were excellent on all counts. I’ve seen the “fun” part on other boats get a little smarmy, but the staff on this boat really did a great job of encouraging people to participate and enjoy themselves without being overly “slick” or pushy. They also had some talented people who shared music I found enjoyable.
I take my own pictures with underwater stills and video. The videographer/photographer on the trip did a super job and was kind enough to show me some great shots while still attending to everyone on board. I wish I could say that about all the snorkeling/watching tours we’ve been on.
Overall I’d say this was a really good trip - for anyone - experienced or novice. Tips: If you have motion sickness, or aren’t sure if you have motion sickness, take dramamine. Do it. Take sunscreen - Use it. If you’re not familiar with photography (above and below water) leave your gear at home. Experience the trip and allow the professional the ship provides offer you some of the best shots you’ll ever see - most likely better images than you can take yourself. Fooling with gear and worrying about taking pictures, will detract from the memories you can make just being in the water and seeing the amazing things the crew will show you.
There are lifetime memories you can take away from a half-day trip like this. It might *seem* pricey to some, but I assure you that it is worth every cent and you’ll be ready for more.

Waikiki Submarine Tour - Descend to 100ft, See Shipwrecks & Sunken Airplanes

Unique Experience !!!

Reviewed by: Tony

This adventure was more than what we expected. We first boarded a boat that took us out to the submarine. We entered a small port hatch that lowered us into a surprisingly large submarine that held over 63 individuals. We dove to a depth of over 112 feet and saw all manor of marine life around sunken ships and airplanes. We experienced fish and sea turtles nestled among the wreckage along with eels along the coral. To say this was a unique experience was an understatement. How often do you get to go 100+ feet under water and see marine life in their natural inhabitant?

You won't experience such emotion anywhere else! こんな感動ほかでは味わえません！

Reviewed by: ソルト

We gathered at the hotel entrance at 5:55 AM. Since it was June, which is typically a low season, there were about 20 participants, which the guide mentioned was about half the usual number. I felt that having a smaller group made the day more enjoyable.

We traveled by bus to the port (about an hour), and during that time, the guide's stories and videos were so interesting that there was no time to sleep. After waiting for about 15 minutes upon arrival at the port, we boarded the boat. The crew members were introduced, and we set off.

On this day, perhaps due to the strong winds, the waves were high, and the boat rocked quite a bit, causing a few people to feel unwell. About 20 minutes after departing, we had our first encounter with dolphins. We spotted a pod about 10 meters ahead, so we put on our goggles and fins and jumped in together. Unfortunately, during the first jump, the dolphins swam away, so we couldn't swim with them.

We returned to the boat and searched for another pod. About 15 minutes later, we found another group and jumped in again. This time, we successfully located the pod, and around 10 dolphins swam right beneath me. It was an unprecedented experience, and it felt truly moving to be swimming alongside them. We all shared our joy as we returned to the boat.

Next was snorkeling in search of sea turtles. After about a 20-minute boat ride, we jumped in at a spot where sea turtles are easy to find. Within just a few minutes, we spotted a turtle and observed it from a distance. After that, a professional photographer took various poses of us. We could purchase all the photos from the professional photographer on the way back (data for $60, USB for $65).

After returning to the boat, we had almost free time. We could eat the cheeseburgers made by the captain, snack on chips, do stand-up paddleboarding, or kayak. Most people chose to relax and eat on the boat.

Once everything was finished, we danced hula on the boat while heading back to the port. After arriving at the port, we took a short break before boarding the bus back to Waikiki. Most people were asleep on the bus.

The encounter rate with dolphins is said to be 90%, but we were fortunate to encounter them quickly, so I didn't feel the discomfort of the boat ride too much and was able to have a valuable experience.

5時55分にホテルの入り口に集合でした。
6月ということもあり、閑散期なのか、参加者は20名程度で、ガイドさん曰く、いつもの半分くらいの人数だったようです。1日を通じて少人数のほうが過ごしやすいと感じました。
みんなでバスで港へ移動（約1時間）し、その間もガイドさんのお話や映像が面白いので、寝る暇はありません。
港に着いてから15分くらい待機して、船に乗り込みます。クルーメンバーが紹介されて出発です。
この日は風が強いせいか波が高く、船はかなり揺れたので、体調が悪くなってしまうひとも2.3人いました。
船を出して20分くらいで1回目のイルカとの遭遇でした。10メートルくらい先にイルカの群れが見えたので、ゴーグルやフィンを付けてみんなで飛び込んで群れの方に向かいます。1回目の飛び込みではイルカの群れが逃げてしまったので、実際に一緒に泳ぐことはできませんでした。
船に戻って、また群れを探し、15分後くらいにまた群れを発見し飛び込みました。今度はうまく群れを見つけ、自分の泳ぐ真下を10頭くらいのイルカが泳いで通りました。今までにない体験で、ほんとに一緒に泳いでいるようで感動的な瞬間でした。みんなで喜びを分かち合いながら船に戻ります。
次はウミガメ探しのシュノーケリングです。20分くらい船で移動して、ウミガメの見つけやすいポイントでみんなで飛び込みます。飛び込んで、3分もしないうちにウミガメを見つけ、少し遠くから眺めます。その後、プロのカメラマンの方がいろいろなポーズで写真を撮ってくれます。プロのカメラマンの写真はは帰りに全て購入することができます。（データは60ドル、USBは65ドル）
みんなで船に戻った後はほぼ自由時間でした。船長が作るチーズバーガーを食べるもよし、チップスを食べるもよし、スタンディングパドルをするもよし、カヌーを漕ぐもよし、基本的には船上で食事をして休む人が多かったです。
すべてが終わって船でフラダンスを踊りながら港へ帰ります。
港へ着いてからは少し休憩してバスに乗り込み、ワイキキへ戻ります。バスの中では、ほとんどの方が眠っていました。
イルカとの遭遇率は90パーセントらしいですが、本当にすぐイルカとの遭遇できたので、船のつらさもそこまで感じずに、貴重な体験をすることができました。

イルカ大学　イルカウォッチング＆シュノーケリングクルーズ　イルカと泳ぐプランも！マリンアクティビティも充実＜ランチ付き／日本語／ワイキキ＆コオリナ送迎可＞

This is my second time participating. 2回目の参加です。

Reviewed by: バボチャン

This time, we were picked up from Ko Olina, so we arrived at the departure port early. (Last time, we were picked up from Waikiki, so we ended up spending quite a long time in the car.) On the day of the trip, there was a slight delay in departure due to engine trouble, but perhaps that was fortunate? Right after we set off, another tour found dolphins, so we were able to get into the water right away. During my previous participation, the waves were rough, and I could only see the dolphins swimming along the seabed, but this time they were swimming close to the surface, so we could see them within reach. Later, at another spot, we were able to see four sea turtles up close, and one came up to the surface to breathe right in front of my wife, which was very moving. I'm really glad I participated again this time. I would definitely like to join for a third time if the opportunity arises. I am very grateful for the guide's hospitality. (By the way, the malasada service that was available last time was no longer offered.)

今回はコオリナからの送迎だったので、出発する港へも早く到着しました。
（前回はワイキキからだったので、意外と長く車に乗りました）
当日、船のエンジンが不調とのことで少し出発が遅れましたが、それが幸い？
したのか出発してすぐに別のツアーがイルカを見つけていたので、すぐに海に入ることができました。
前回の参加時は波も荒く、イルカも海底を泳いでいる姿を見るくらいでしたが、今回は海面近くを泳いでいたので手の届くようなところで見られました。
その後移動した場所で、ウミガメ4匹も近くで見られ、家内の目の前に呼吸しに上がってきたりしてとても感動しました。今回も参加してとても良かったです。3回目も是非機会があれば参加したいと思いました。ガイドさんのホスピタリティーに大感謝です。
（因みに、前回はあったマラサダサービスはなくなっていました）

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

Best experience in Hawaii!!

Reviewed by: Nikki from LA

This is my youngest son's first trip to Hawaii. He asked to go snorkling. So I thought it would be even more fun to snorkle with turtles. And so we did. We had such an amazing experience, staffs were very nice and helpful. It was fun to see many turtles and fishes. We had so much fun. And at the end of our Hawaii trip, I asked my son, which one was the most memorable one of all the places we went to in Hawaii, and he said snorkling with turtles!!!

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＞

Definitely worth a visit! 行く価値あり！

Reviewed by: ジャン

This was my second time participating, and I was once again very satisfied! I was able to swim with many dolphins. I'm usually scared to swim in the ocean where I can't touch the bottom, but in this activity, I had zero fear. For those who are anxious about swimming, they provide not only life jackets but also floatation devices, which is reassuring. It seems that swimming with spinner dolphins is something you can only do in Hawaii, so I highly recommend it. Our guide, Juli, was also fun and lively! I definitely want to participate again when I go to Hawaii!

二度目の参加でしたが、今回も大満足でした！
たくさんのイルカと一緒に泳げました。
私は足が届かない海では怖くて泳げないのですが、このアクティビティでは恐怖心ゼロでした。泳ぎに不安がある人には、ライフジャケットの他に浮き棒も貸してくれるので安心です。ハシナガイルカと泳げるのは世界中でハワイだけらしいので、本当におススメです。
ガイドのじゅりさんも楽しく盛り上げてくれました！ハワイに行ったら絶対また参加したいです！

シーライフパーク・ハワイ　イルカと触れ合える人気プログラムは選べる3プラン　海の生き物への餌やり体験、イルカやアシカのショーなど充実の園内＜送迎付きプランあり＞

I made friends with a dolphin. イルカとお友達になれました

Reviewed by: たまねこ

It was really funny to see my younger daughter and a foreign boy, around 10 years old, who was scared of dolphins, connecting with each other as if to say, "It's scary, isn't it?" despite the language barrier.

Inside the birdcage, there were many birds, and I made memories that I couldn't experience in Japan.

イルカを怖がる10歳位の外人の男の子とうちの下の娘がしいたげられている者同士国境(言葉の壁を越えて(^^)こわいよねーと言わんばかりに目を合わせてお友達になっていたのがすごくおかしかったです

ホエールウォッチ　最大80名乗りのカタマラン船！ソフトドリンク飲み放題付き＜ワイキキ送迎可／12/1～3/31＞

Hilton presents! Whale Watching Cruise ヒルトン発！ホエールウォッチングクルーズ

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

Unfortunately, we couldn't see any whales, but we enjoyed the beautiful ocean. The staff's service was excellent, and the Japanese guests were very satisfied. However, the meeting point is at the Port Waikiki Kiosk inside the Hilton Hawaiian Village, which is a bit difficult to find. I think it would be helpful to provide a map of the hotel to make it clearer.

鯨は、残念ながら見れませんでしたが
きれいな海が見れて満喫しました
スタッフの対応は大変よく
日本人は、好評でした
しかし、集合場所が
ヒルトンハワイアンビレッジ港内の
ポートワイキキ・キオスク
ですが、わかりにくい場所で
ホテル内の地図を載せてくれれば
わかりやすいと思います

2.5-Hour Spirit of Aloha Waikiki Turtle Snorkel Tour with Cocktails from Hilton

One of the highlights of our trip to Waikiki

Reviewed by: Pete B

This was an enjoyable trip just off the Waikiki coast, snorkeling was fruitful with my three teenage children as we saw many sea turtles and fish, while my wife enjoyed staying on the boat taking pictures of us in the water and of the surrounding views. Then we took a fun sail ride that gives you a great view of the Waikiki skyline and a full view of Diamond Head. The crew was great and were determined to ensure we had a great time. They were successful!

アトランティス潜水艦ツアー　ハワイの海底30mを進む海中アドベンチャー ＜ヒルトン・ハワイアン・ビレッジ発／日本語ナレーション（要事前ダウンロード）＞

Even those who can't dive can enjoy the ocean in Hawaii. 潜れない人でもハワイの海を満喫

Reviewed by: masakigu

First, we boarded a boat from the dock near Hilton Hawaiian Village and headed offshore, where the views from the boat were excellent. There was a shop on board, so we didn't get bored. At the offshore point, we could see a submarine surfacing. The weather was calm on the day of our participation, and the view from inside the submarine was great. Thanks to our guide, who was fluent in Japanese, we had a wonderful time. While it might not be enough for those who are serious about scuba diving, I think it's a tour that can be enjoyed by everyone else.

まずはヒルトンハワイアンビレッジ近くの乗船場から船に乗り沖合へ行きますが、この船からの眺めが非常に良いです。船内にはショップがあり退屈しません。沖合のポイントでは潜水艦の浮上を見ることができます。参加当日は天気も穏やかで潜水艦内からの眺めも良く、また日本語が流暢なガイドさんのおかげで楽しく過ごせました。本格的にスキューバダイビングをする人には物足りないかもしれませんが、そうでなければ十分楽しめるツアーだと思います。
