I participated in a tour with "Dolphin University" that cruises near the westernmost point of Oahu. There were many Japanese staff members, and their explanations were thorough, allowing me to feel safe and enjoy the experience throughout. On the boat, there were also commentaries about the surrounding islands and scenery, which deepened my understanding of Hawaii's nature and culture. During the cruise, I encountered sea turtles three times and observed a pod of wild dolphins. I was particularly moved by the sight of baby dolphins jumping. After the cruise, I had a snorkeling experience in the deep sea where I couldn't touch the bottom. Swimming with colorful fish gathered around the bait felt like a dream, and it was a highly satisfying tour that allowed me to feel one with nature.
オアフ島最西端付近をクルーズする「イルカ大学」のツアーに参加しました。日本人スタッフが多く、説明も丁寧で終始安心して楽しめました。船上では周囲の島や景色についての解説もあり、ハワイの自然や文化をより深く知ることができました。クルーズ中には3回もウミガメに出会い、野生のイルカの群れも観察。特に子イルカがジャンプする姿には感動しました。クルーズ後は、足のつかないほど深い海でのシュノーケリング体験。餌に集まるカラフルな魚たちと泳ぐのはまさに夢のようで、大自然との一体感を味わえる、非常に満足度の高いツアーでした。
船上は海から上がったあとかなり冷えるので1人一枚のバスタオルや羽織が必須だと思います。
Aloha! Thank you for participating in Dolphin University. I am very pleased to hear that you not only encountered wild dolphins and sea turtles in the beautiful nature of Hawaii, but also learned about Hawaii's nature and culture, and experienced a sense of unity with the great outdoors.

The staff were great at getting everyone excited and taught us with care. There was also a Japanese guide, which made me feel at ease participating! Dolphins swam in from all directions, and we could see them up close 🐬. After that, we moved to a snorkeling spot for some free snorkeling time. There, we were able to see sea turtles, which was a very precious experience for me(^^).
スタッフの方が盛り上げ上手で丁寧に教えてくれました。日本人のガイドさんもいて、安心して参加することができました!イルカは四方八方からたくさん泳いできて間近で見られました🐬
その後シュノーケリングスポットに移動して自由にシュノーケリングタイム。そこではウミガメを見ることもでき、とても貴重な体験をすることがだしました(^^)
The boat moves quickly, so it gets cold when you come out of the water. You can rent a wetsuit for $10 locally, which gives you peace of mind!

I participated in July. From the shuttle bus stage, I felt at ease with the Japanese guide, Fuko. There was also a restroom break at the port upon arrival.
The boat was clean, had a roof, and was comfortable. Many spinner dolphins came around the boat. Although the time spent searching for dolphins offshore was long, the snorkeling time was short, but I was able to swim with a turtle.
Lastly, even though the course I chose was one that could not be changed or canceled, thank you for accommodating my schedule change.

Whether you'll see a lot of dolphins depends on their mood. It's a good idea to take motion sickness medication since you'll be heading out to sea in search of dolphins.

I was able to see a total of three turtles! I think it's definitely a spot where you can see them. The guide was a foreigner, and when I participated, there were no Japanese participants, so I was a bit anxious, but there was nothing to worry about. I think it's a good idea to take motion sickness medication, as I experienced seasickness and nausea from the waves.

Iruka Junior High is truly amazing. We went out to sea on a boat to search for dolphins. The boat was more thrilling and faster than a banana boat, making it the best attraction!
Being on the boat allowed us to get really close to the dolphins, and it was an emotional experience swimming alongside so many of them.
With snorkeling, I was able to swim with rays and sea turtles!
イルカ中学はほんとにすごいです。
ボートでイルカを探しに沖まで行きます。
バナナボートよりも迫力があるボートで早いスピードで沖まで行くのがまずサイコーのアトラクションでした!
ボートだからすごくイルカに近くまで寄ってくれて、たくさんのイルカと一緒に泳げて感動の体験でした。
シュノーケルではエイやウミガメと一緒に泳ぐことができました!
If you overinflate the life jacket, it will make snorkeling difficult, so it's better not to inflate it too much.
The boat rocks quite a bit, so those who are prone to seasickness should be well-prep
ライフジャケットに空気を入れすぎると、シュノーケルが難しいので、パンパンに空気を入れすぎないほうがいいです。

Aloha! Thank you, Arika, for participating in Dolphin Academy. We also appreciate the five stars.

We participated with two adults and four children (ages 2 to 13). We were a bit anxious because it was slightly cheaper than other tours and only had English-speaking staff, but I thought communication would be fine as long as we could manage simple conversations. The boat was more luxurious than we expected, and we had a comfortable time.
During the snorkeling, we saw about 5 to 6 sea turtles from a distance for around 40 to 50 minutes. One of the local staff members was snorkeling and pointed out where the turtles were, but he wasn't very proactive, so we ended up diving and searching for them ourselves. However, we were thrilled to see one up close! If I have the chance to go again, I would love to participate.
大人2人、子ども4人(2〜13歳)で参加しました。
他のツアーに比べ少し安かったことと、英語のスタッフのみということで、少し不安はありましたが、簡単な会話ができる程度であれば、全くコミュニケーションは問題ないと思いました。
船も予想以上に豪華で快適に過ごせました。
ウミガメは約4〜50分間シュノーケル中に、5〜6頭遠くに見えました。
1人、現地のスタッフの方がシュノーケルをしながらウミガメのいる場所を教えてくれるのですが、あまり積極的でなかったため、自分たちで潜って探す感じでしたが、1頭至近距離で見れて感動しました!
また行く機会があったら参加したいです。

Recently, I participated in a snorkeling tour called "Dolphin Middle School" in Hawaii, where I got to meet dolphins and sea turtles, a dream I've had for a long time! We departed from Waikiki by shuttle bus before 6 AM. I was still a bit sleepy, but just looking at the blue sky lifted my spirits!
🛥️ Setting sail and searching for dolphins
We boarded a boat at Waianae Harbor on the west side of Oahu, where the crew provided explanations in English. Yuji, a member of the crew, personally guided me, which made me feel at ease. The ocean was unbelievably blue and clear! After a while, the crew shouted:
“Dolphins!!”
Several dolphins jumped alongside the boat! Everyone couldn't help but cheer. It was so moving to see wild dolphins so close…
🐬 Swimming with dolphins!
We arrived at the snorkeling point and finally entered the water. It was a bit cold at first, but felt great!
Looking down, I saw a pod of dolphins swimming gracefully, and it truly felt like we were sharing the same ocean.
The crew guided us expertly, making it easy for beginners to feel comfortable. We dove three times to swim with the dolphins. At first, we observed from a distance, but during the second dive, I was able to observe and swim closely with many dolphins, which was incredibly satisfying.
🐢 Next, the sea turtle point
After the dolphins, we moved to the sea turtle spot. The visibility here was also excellent! While swimming among the corals, a large sea turtle suddenly appeared right in front of me.
Its leisurely swimming was truly graceful. We had to maintain a distance to avoid getting too close, but swimming alongside it was part of the rules. The moment our eyes met, it looked as if it was smiling, which was very touching.
It seems that returning participants receive a permanent discount, so I definitely want to join again the next time I visit Hawaii.
先日、ハワイにてずっと夢だったイルカとウミガメに会えるシュノーケルツアー イルカ中学に参加しました!朝6時前に、ワイキキから送迎バスで出発。まだ少し眠いけど、青空を見てるだけでテンションが上がる!
🛥️ 出航からイルカ探し
西オアフのワイアナエ港からボートに乗り込み、クルーが英語で説明してくれました。日本人の私には同クルーのYujiさんが個別で教えていただき、安心感を持って参加できました。
海は信じられないくらい青くて透明!しばらく走ると、
クルー:「Dolphins!!」
イルカが何頭もボートの横をジャンプしながら並走!思わずみんな歓声。野生のイルカが本当にあんなに近くで見られるなんて感動…。
🐬 イルカと一緒に泳ぐ!
シュノーケルポイントに到着し、いよいよ海へ。海に入った瞬間、少し冷たいけど気持ちいい!
下を見ると、イルカの群れがスイスイ泳いでいて、本当に一緒の海を共有してる感覚。
クルーがうまく誘導してくれるので初心者でも安心。イルカとのスイムは計3回ダイブしました。最初は少し遠めでの観察でしたが、2回目は写真の通りたくさんのイルカを直近で観察&一緒にスイムできて大変満足でした。
🐢 次は海亀ポイント
イルカの後は、海亀スポットへ移動。ここでも透明度抜群!サンゴの間を泳いでいたら、突然目の前に大きなウミガメが登場。
ゆったり泳ぐ姿は本当に優雅。近づきすぎないよう距離を保ちながら、一緒に泳ぐのがルール。目が合った瞬間、まるで微笑んでるように見えて感動的でした。
2回目以降の参加は半永久的に割引が適用されるようで次回ハワイに訪れた際にもぜひ参加したいと思いました。
<Positive Points>
Wild dolphins and sea turtles are really close!
There is someone on the crew who speaks Japanese, so it's reassuring.

The staff was friendly, and there were enough staff members for participants to swim comfortably! They took the time to thoroughly explain safety precautions, such as not swimming at the back of the boat, and they were always watching over the participants. There was also a practice for the OK sign and help sign, which was reassuring. We were the only Japanese participants, but there were many children joining, and we were able to communicate and have fun. There was an incident where a participant's hat flew into the sea, but the staff returned the boat to the point where the hat was and jumped in to retrieve it. The snorkeling time was long, and if you get tired, you can return to the boat via the stairs! I highly recommend it!

We gathered on-site. Even if you arrive on time, there were no staff members present, which can be a bit unsettling, but it seems this is the usual situation (laughs). In our small group of 13, we could clearly hear the staff's explanations. At other times, it seemed to be fully booked with about 50 people.
We were able to see clearly down to the seabed and even encountered sea turtles. I think people of all ages can enjoy this. I downloaded the Japanese commentary in advance, but I wasn't sure when to start listening with the earphones.

This was one of our favorite days on vacation going on the catamaran with my kids snorkeling and seeing Sea turtles.
I was worried my kids would be to little but everyone on the boat was so helpful and we had the best time ever!

I was able to see many dolphins and honu! I was moved by the pod of dolphins swimming close to the boat! I was worried about my 5-year-old, but as expected, they seemed scared when they jumped into the sea and cried a lot underwater... However, the staff were very kind and supportive, which was a great comfort for me as a mother. On the boat, my child enjoyed watching the dolphins and eating snacks. My elementary school-aged siblings particularly enjoyed the slide and went down it multiple times. I was disappointed that I couldn't see any fish while snorkeling, but that's just how nature is! Thanks to all the cute dolphins and the cheerful staff, I made the best memories!
たくさんのイルカもホヌも見れました!
船に寄り添って泳ぐイルカの群れに感動!
5歳の子連れは心配でしたが、予想通り海に飛び込んだのが怖かったようで海の中では大泣きでした…でもスタッフさんが優しくフォローして下さり、母としては大変心強かったです。船の上では楽しそうにイルカを眺めたりお菓子を食べて満喫していました。
小学生の兄弟は、特にスライダーが楽しかったようで何度も滑っていました。
楽しみにしていたシュノーケルはお魚が見れなくて残念でしたが、これも自然が相手だから仕方ないこと!
その分たくさんの可愛いイルカと陽気なスタッフのおかげでサイコーの思い出が出来ました!
It was hot in June, but the water was cold. Even after getting out, it was colder than I expected, so it's definitely better to rent a wetsuit! I was shivering (laughs).
6月で暑かったですが、海の中は冷たかったです。あがったあとも思ったより冷えたのでウエットスーツ借りた方が絶対いいです!震えます(笑)
Aloha! Thank you for enrolling your family at Dolphin University. We also appreciate the five stars.

Our crew will do their best to ensure you encounter the dolphins! We sincerely look forward to your family's next participation. Mahalo nui and a hui hou!

Such a cool way to explore beneath the ocean without getting wet as I am not much of a swimmer that loves sea life, lol!

Friendly staff. 100 yards away was too far to swim. All other boats were closer.

Monoa was a great friendly experience. Kids felt safe and comfortable. The crew was amazing, patient and very supportive. I would recommend for anyone with kids. We saw tons of fish, turtles and sea life.

On the ship, it gets quite cold after coming up from the sea, so I think it's essential for each person to have a bath towel or a wrap.
