All Reviews for Marine Wildlife Encounters

I had a good time and the staff was really friendly. The pictures and videos they take of you are cool but a bit on the pricey side, especially because we are from Canada and it’s more expensive than USD. They provided us with chips and water which was ok but I give them a 5 star because of how nice they were. Overall it was fun.

I was totally surprised to see that there were so many! Although it's early in the morning, the saying "the early bird catches the worm" is definitely true! It's absolutely worth going! This experience can't be had in Japan!

まさかあんないるなんて‼︎っていう感じでした‼︎
朝は早いけど、リアルガチで早起きは三文の徳‼︎
行く価値ありまくり‼︎この体験は日本じゃ出来ませんね‼︎

Swimming with dolphins was one of the things I wanted to do in my life. I finally got to see wild dolphins for the first time! They swam so close that I felt like I could reach out and touch them! I was able to see so many adorable dolphin behaviors, like a baby dolphin swimming with its mother, dolphins holding fins while swimming, and playing around on their backs! It was tough to wake up early, but it was truly moving. I was prepared for it to be difficult since it’s nature, but I encountered the best opportunity. Thank you, Dolphin Master and all the staff!!! Participated on 10/26, and Julie's guidance was the best!

イルカと泳ぐことは人生の中でやりたいことの一つでした。やっと生まれて初めて野生のイルカを見ることができました！
本当に近くまで泳いできてくれて、手を伸ばせば届きそうでした！
しかも赤ちゃんがいたり、手をつないで泳いでいたり、じゃれあってお腹を上にしていたり、イルカの可愛い仕草をたくさん見ることができました！
朝早くて大変でしたが、本当に感動モノです。
自然が相手なので難しいかなと覚悟してたのですが、最高の機会に巡り会えて、イルカ先生、
スタッフの皆様ありがとうございました！！！
10/26参加 ジュリーさんの引率最高！

What a fabulous way to begin a vacation in Oahu! The Captain and Tour Director we’re knowledgeable, generous and entertaining. They made the first day of our vacation even more special than my husband and I imagined! Thank you!!

I was debating whether to join a tour to swim with wild dolphins when I applied... (I was also concerned about the price)
In the end, I'm glad I chose this tour!!
The Japanese guide provided a very detailed explanation of the tour flow during the changing time, and when it was time to interact with the dolphins, the local staff took over. Even though we couldn't communicate verbally, we were able to understand each other through gestures.
Since it's a tourist spot, the food court and other areas are generally on the pricier side, but they gave us three coupons, so I was able to enjoy ice cream for free!
I participated in the first morning session, and afterwards, I had lunch and was able to watch the dolphin show starting at 12:30. The show was at a level that you can't experience in Japan, and it was really great.

申込時に野生のイルカと泳げるツアーにするか悩んでいたのですが…(お値段的にも悩みました)
結果的にこちらのツアーにして良かったです！！
日本語ガイドさんは着替え時にとても詳しくツアーの流れを教えてくれますし、イルカと触れ合う時は現地のスタッフに交代するのですが、言葉は通じずとも身振り手振りで理解できます。
観光地なのでフードコート等も全体的に高めですが、クーポンを3つつけて下さるので無料でアイスが食べれちゃいました！
午前1番の部での参加で、その後はご飯を食べたりして12時半〜のイルカショーも見ることが出来ました。ショーも日本では味わえないレベルでとても良かったです。

I participated in the Dolphin Swim Adventure. Both the dolphins and the staff (foreigners) were very friendly, and I had an incredibly fun interaction, which left me very satisfied. However, it was disappointing that the dolphin pool and the facilities were dirty. I had a hamburger and a chili dog for lunch, but they were cold. There were also a lot of mosquitoes.

ドルフィンスイムアドベンチャーに参加しました。イルカもスタッフのお姉さん(外人)も とてもフレンドリーで、最高に楽しいふれあいができて大満足でした。ただ、イルカのプール内や施設内が汚れていたのが残念でした。
ハンバーガーやチリドッグをランチで食べたのですが、冷たかったです。蚊も多いです。

I was the only participant who joined the tour alone, but Minako and the crew warmly welcomed me, allowing me to enjoy the experience with peace of mind. On the day I participated, I was lucky to see many dolphins, especially baby dolphins swimming alongside, as well as sea turtles and fish. I was very satisfied; it was a moment that enhanced the charm of Hawaii even more. Thank you very much. I would love to join again, whether alone or with others.

ツアーの参加者の中で、唯一1人での参加でしたが、アテンドしてくださったみなこさんやクルーのみなさんが温かく迎えて下さり、安心して楽しめました。
参加した日は、ラッキーなことに、たくさんのイルカたち、特に子供のイルカも一緒に泳いでいるところや、海ガメや魚たちもバッチリ見えて、とても満足しています。ハワイの魅力が更に増した瞬間でした。ありがとうごさいました。また、次回も1人でも何人でも参加したいです。

I was able to see a lot of sharks!! It was amazing!! However, the boat was really rocking, and I got very seasick (・ω・｀).

たくさんのサメを見れました！！
感動！！
ただ、船がめっちゃ揺れて船酔いがやばかったです(・ω・｀)

There seemed to be nearly 80 heads, and I was able to see a lot during the two opportunities. All the staff were very kind, and I was able to enjoy myself with peace of mind!

80頭近くが居たようで
2度のチャンスでたくさん見れました
スタッフ皆さん優しい人ばかり
安心して楽しめました！

It's early in the morning. Since a lot of people are participating, the boat is quite crowded... It feels more like chasing the dolphins rather than swimming with them, which is hard work, haha. I think you might be able to see sea turtles if you're lucky, but since so many people are participating, everyone gathers around the turtles, so unless you're a good swimmer, you won't be able to get close. Even though I didn't request it, they called my name and forced me to take pictures, and the photo purchase is expensive. I thought maybe I should have chosen a different tour!

朝早いです。大勢参加するため船はぎゅうぎゅうです…イルカと泳ぐというよりはイルカを追っかけてるって感じでハードです笑 ウミガメは運良ければ会えると思いますが大勢参加してるためみんなウミガメの周りに集まるので泳ぎうまい人じゃないと近くにみれません。。別に頼んでないのに強制的に名前呼ばれ写真撮らされ、写真購入は高額です。私は違うツアーの方が良かったのかもと思いました！

I had heard that I might not be able to see wild dolphins, but I was able to meet them!
And in a pod!!
It was even more moving than I had imagined!!
I plan to go to Hawaii again next year, and I definitely want to participate again.

野生のイルカで、見れないかもしれないと聞いていたのですが、会うことができました！
しかも群れで！！
想像していた以上に感動的でした！！
来年もハワイに行く予定にしましたが、また今度も是非参加したいと思っています。

I made a reservation at the request of my mother, who is hesitant about diving and snorkeling.

We had a great time on the boat ride to the submarine, and the submarine that emerged from the sea was really cool!! The flow was smooth, and I think the pilot made sure there was no unfairness in seating positions! We were able to see sea turtles swimming from inside the submarine, and on the way back, we also saw dolphins! I thought it was a really valuable experience since the fish didn't escape as they do with snorkeling or diving!!

ダイビングやシュノーケルにおっくうな母のリクエストで予約しました。

潜水艦までのボートもすごく楽しむことができ、海中から現れる潜水艦はほんとにかっこよかったです！！
動線もスムーズで、座る位置での不公平がないように潜水艦を操縦してくださっていたのだと思います！
潜水艦の中からウミガメが泳いで行くのも見れて、帰りのボートではイルカもみることができました！
シュノーケルやダイビングより魚たちが逃げないのですごく貴重な体験だと思いました！！

I participated because I could interact with dolphins. Although the weather was unfortunate, I had a great time. I was surprised by how eager the dolphins were to engage during the dolphin touch and photo session! The kids had big smiles too!

イルカと触れ合えるとのことでの参加。
あいにくの天気でしたが、楽しく過ごせました。
イルカタッチと記念撮影ではあまりにもイルカがサービス精神旺盛でびっくり！
子供たちもいい笑顔出てました！

You can easily make reservations from your iPhone! Once your reservation is confirmed, you will receive an email. I went from the Sheraton, and the bus stop was easy to find. Your name will be called in English, and you will receive a wristband (for the dolphin experience). The scenery from the bus is also breathtaking. When you arrive at the park, there are two Japanese staff members who are very kind and provide thorough explanations! I chose the most affordable course to interact with the dolphins, and I even fed them. It was a truly precious experience, and I would like to swim with the dolphins next time. The park is compact, but there are turtles, penguins, sea lions, and birds, and you can also feed the fish and birds! It was very easy to make a reservation, and I was able to enjoy everything smoothly! Thank you!

予約はiPhoneからスマートにできます！

Outstanding, I will return to do it again with them.

I love the ocean and swim with sharks in Hawaii was on my bucket list. To celebrate my 78th birthday, my daughter decided to take me on this amazing shark cage diving tour. What a great experience! We saw a lot of different species of sharks, they are amazing animals. The crew was really nice and made us feel safe during the entire process. Thank you HawaiiActivities.com for helping me during our booking process. This was the best birthday gift I could ask for!

The early morning pickup at 6 AM was a bit tough, but thanks to our guide J's fun stories, I didn't fall asleep in the car, and we arrived at the port in no time.

Since it was the end of September, I was worried about the water temperature, but I was able to rent a wetsuit for $10. The instructions on how to use the snorkeling gear were thorough and easy to understand.

This was my third time on a dolphin swimming tour in Hawaii. Right after we set sail, we encountered about 200 dolphins, and it was over in a flash. The staff also swam with us, which made me feel safe. They also loudly informed us of the direction the dolphin pod was coming from, so we didn't miss anything. Since there were no other boats around, I guess the captain's years of experience helped him find this spot. It seemed that the afternoon tours that day and the next day didn't encounter any dolphins, so we were very lucky.

The snorkeling spot afterward was a place where there were turtles, and I saw more fish than I expected. The staff took a lot of pictures and made an effort to show us marine life, which made it enjoyable. This time, we quickly encountered the dolphins, so we had quite a bit of snorkeling time. It would have been even better if we could have seen more dolphins or had a longer sailing time on the catamaran.

On this dolphin tour, we learned not only about dolphins but also about hula and Hawaiian prayers, making it a very enriching experience.

早朝6時にピックアップで少し辛かったですが、ガイドのJちゃんの楽しいお話で車内で寝てしまう事もなく、あっと言う間に港に着きました。

9月末だったので水温が低いか心配でしたが、$10でウエットスーツを貸し出してもらえました。シュノーケルや等の道具の使い方も丁寧に説明があって分かり易かったです。

ハワイでのイルカと泳ぐツアーは今回が3回目。
今回は出航してすぐに200頭ぐらいのイルカ達会え、あっという間でした。
スタッフさん達も一緒に泳いでくれるので安心です。又、イルカの群れが来ている方向も大きな声で教えてくれるので見逃す事も無かったです。
他のボートが周りにいなかったので、船長さんの長年の経験でこのスポットが分かったのでしょうか。
この日の午後便や次の日の便はイルカ達に会えなかった様で、私達はとても幸運だった様です。
その後のシュノーケルスポットは亀もいる場所で思ったよりも魚が見れました。スタッフの人が沢山写真を撮ってくれたり、海の生き物を見せてくれたり楽しめる様に工夫してくれていました。今回はイルカ達に直ぐに会えたのでシュノーケル時間がかなりありました。もう少しイルカを見たりカタマランでのセーリング時間が長かったらもっと良かったです。

今回のイルカ中学ツアーではイルカの事だけでなくフラやハワイ語でのお祈りなど色々と学べ盛り沢山でした。

I participated with my sister. I was confident in my physical stamina, so I thought I would be fine, but it was quite tough. Depending on the wave conditions, I think there's a high chance of getting seasick (I took seasickness medication). However, I was able to see several dolphins, which was an incredibly valuable experience! The staff were all cheerful and fun, truly wonderful people. Thank you very much!

妹と参加しました｡
体力には自信があったので大丈夫だろうと思ってましたが､かなりきつかったです｡
波の状況にもよるのですが､かなりの確率で船酔いすると思います｡(船酔いの薬は飲んでました)
でも､何匹もイルカに会うことができてすごく貴重な経験になりました!
スタッフのみなさんも明るく楽しく､本当に良い方ばかりでした｡
ありがとうございました!

I love sharks, so I have swum with them domestically, but the sharks in this plan were not as large as in the promotional photos. I was disappointed.

However, another team that saw the sharks up close was very impressed and seemed to be generous with tips.

Also, the sea surface was very choppy for snorkeling, making it quite easy to get seasick. Since the boat can also cause seasickness, I recommend taking motion sickness medication to avoid a double whammy.

サメが好きなので国内でもサメと泳ぐ等していたのですが、
今回のプランのサメは宣伝写真程大きくありません。期待外れでした。

ですが、初めてサメを間近で見た別の参加チームは非常に感動しており、チップも弾んでいたようです。

また、シュノーケルのため海面が非常に揺れ、大変酔いやすいです。
船も酔う可能性があるので、Ｗパンチにならないよう、酔い止めの服用をおすすめします。

Swimming with dolphins has always been a dream of ours, and we participated as a couple! Even on the bus heading to the ocean, our guide Minako shared fun stories, which helped us shake off the early morning sleepiness and get excited for the dolphin tour (^ ^).

Once we arrived at the ocean, it was time to board the boat! There was a restroom break after getting off the bus, so we could board the boat with peace of mind.

The crew on the boat was all local, truly Hawaiian ♡ They were cheerful and fun people ♩.

We received a briefing on snorkeling equipment and set sail while searching for dolphins!

When we spotted a pod of dolphins, everyone jumped into the water! During our first entry, we got to meet the dolphins!

To ensure everyone could see the dolphins up close, during the second entry, those who hadn’t seen them swam near the guide, and everyone was able to see the dolphins safely!

The boat ride to the site was smooth in the early morning with no waves, but on the way back, the waves picked up, and we got soaked, haha.

Also, the boat rocked quite a bit, and several people felt nauseous.

Motion sickness medication is a must.

The water is incredibly beautiful, far beyond what you can compare to in Waikiki, and it’s truly healing. The guides were all wonderful people, making this the best tour where we could genuinely enjoy ourselves.

イルカと泳ぐことがずっと夢だった夫婦2人で参加しました！
海に向かうバスの中もガイドのミナコさんが楽しいお話をしてくれて、早朝で眠かったけど、テンションあげてイルカツアーに望めました(^ ^)


海について、いよいよ乗船！
バスを降りてからトイレ休憩もあるので、安心して船に乗れました！

船のクルーは、地元の方ばかりで、まさにハワイアン♡陽気で楽しい方ばかりでした♩


船でシュノーケル道具の説明を受け、
イルカを探しながら航海！



イルカの群れを見つけたら、みんなで海へ！
1回目の入水で、イルカに会えました！


全員がイルカを近くで見れるように
2回目の入水の時、見れなかった人は

行きの船は、早朝で波もないためあまり酔いませんが、帰りは、波も高くなり、びしょびしょになります笑


また、船も大きく揺れるため、何人も気持ち悪くなってました。


酔い止めは必須です。



ワイキキの海とは比べ物にならないくらい綺麗で、癒されます。
ガイドの方もみんなが良い方々で、純粋に楽しめる最高のツアーです。

Was expecting more glass, more drinking, and more swimming. But it was still a great time. The guides were great and knowledgeable. And we saw turtles!

Swimming with dolphins was the purpose of this trip. We participated in the tour despite feeling a bit sleepy from the early morning departure, but on the way, we had a great time listening to Julie, the staff member, who enthusiastically shared many stories about Hawaii and dolphins, making the ride to the port fly by.

Once on board, everyone enjoyed chatting together as the captain, Papa, led the ship out to sea. I was worried about whether we would see dolphins since a storm was approaching, but when we arrived at the dolphin spot, we encountered over 20 dolphins, which really boosted our excitement. After swimming to see the dolphins twice, we moved a bit and saw many small fish. After snorkeling, we enjoyed pork rice balls and snacks on the boat. The pork rice balls after snorkeling were incredibly delicious!

After that, we returned while dancing the hula. From start to finish, it was a very enjoyable and happy time. I definitely want to participate again the next time I come to Hawaii.

イルカと泳ぐのが今回の旅行の目的でした。
朝早くの出発で少し眠さもありながらツアーに参加しましたが、道中にスタッフのジュリーさんからテンション高めにハワイやイルカについてのお話を沢山聞けて、すごく楽しく港まであっという間でした。
乗船後もみんなで楽しく会話しながら、船長のパパさんを筆頭に船は出航★
嵐が近づいてきていたのでイルカに会えるか心配していましたが、いざイルカ達のポイントに着くと20頭以上のイルカ達に出会えてテンションが上がりました。２回イルカ達を見るために泳いだ後は、少し移動して小さい魚をたくさん見ました。シュノーケル後は、船上でポークおにぎりやおかしを食べました。シュノーケル後のポークおにぎりはすごく美味しかったです！笑
その後はフラダンスを踊りながらの帰航。初めから最後まで、全てがとても楽しい幸せな時間でした。次にハワイに来る時も、また是非参加したいと思います。

I participated in a dolphin school for the first time on my honeymoon. I thought 5:35 AM might be too early, but surprisingly, it wasn't difficult to wake up. The guide was very energetic, and I had a great time. I learned about the ecology of spinner dolphins, bottlenose dolphins, orcas, and sharks, as well as the differences between mammals and fish, which made me appreciate dolphins even more.

Originally, we were supposed to see turtles as well, but it turned out that the day we participated was the peak day for big waves, so there were a lot of waves, and we couldn't find any dolphins in the first two hours. However, when I dipped my feet in the water from the boat, the splashes felt great, and the scenery was beautiful with clear, transparent water.

In the end, we were able to watch bottlenose dolphins, and I also snorkeled with spinner dolphins and saw many of them three times. Just make sure to bring water! You'll get very thirsty, and we only received juice. The dolphin school is a very positive and high-energy activity. I highly recommend participating!

初めて新婚旅行でイルカ中学に参加しました。
5：35だと朝早いかなと思いましたが、案外起きるのは億劫ではなかったです。
案内してくれる方もハイテンションな方でとっても楽しめました。ハシナガイルカやバンドウイルカ、シャチ、サメなどの生態と哺乳類や魚類の違いも知れて、イルカを知ることの楽しさも知ることができました。
本来は亀も観れる予定でしたが、参加したのは次の日がビッグウェーブのピークの日らしくとても波が沢山あり、最初の2時間は全然イルカが見つかりませんでした。ですが、船から足を出せば水しぶきが体に当たりとても気持ちよく、景色も綺麗で海もとても透明で綺麗でした。
最終的にはバンドウイルカもウォッチングできましたし、ハシナガイルカもシュノーケリングして3回も沢山見れました。
ただ、お水は絶対もってくださいね！
喉がとっても乾きますし、ジュースしかもらえませんでした。
イルカ中学はとても前向きにハイテンションで楽しめるアクティビティです。
是非ご参加下さい！！

My friend, who has weak eyesight and needs prescription goggles to dive, was able to participate, so I signed up. They were very happy to observe the natural fish and sea turtles swimming in the coral reefs, which were different from those in the aquarium.

視力が弱く、ダイビングするにも度付きゴーグルをしなければならない友達が参加出来そうなので申し込みました
水槽の中とは違ったサンゴ礁を泳ぐ天然の魚たちや海ガメを観察できてとても喜んでもらえました

I made a huge mistake during the reservation stage. I intended to book for the day before my return flight, and we excitedly gathered at the meeting place with six people. However, the guide told us, "Your reservation is for tomorrow!" Upon checking, it turned out that we had actually booked for the day of our return flight. Since we might not make it to our flight after participating in the tour tomorrow, I asked if there was anything that could be done, but unfortunately, both the middle school and university tours were fully booked, and cancellations would not be refundable if made less than 24 hours in advance. With six people, that was quite a hefty amount.

The guide said, "I'll contact the office and get back to you." So, we enjoyed a different schedule that day. In the afternoon, I was able to get in touch with the office. They kindly suggested that if we came to the meeting place to prepare for our return, they would load our luggage onto the bus and drop us off at a hotel just before the airport after the tour ended, as it would take too long to go back to Honolulu and then to the airport. From there, we could easily take a taxi to the airport, which was a wonderful proposal.

It was a last-minute solution, but thanks to this, it turned into an unforgettable and amazing tour. I appreciate the office's response. Also, the guide Jerry's sense of humor and looks during the bus ride to the port were fantastic. The hour-long journey was so enjoyable that it felt like we were at the main event.

予約段階で大失敗してしまいました。
と言うのは、帰国日の前日の申し込みのつもりで6名揃って張り切って集合場所に。
ところがガイドさんに「明日のご予約日になってますよ！」って言われて確認すると、なんと明日の帰国日の予約になっていました。
明日はツアーに参加してからではフライトの時間に間に合わない事もあるので、なんとかならないかとお願いしましたがあいにく中学も大学も満席でキャンセルするにも24時間前からは返金できなくなるとの事。
6名分ですから相当厳しい金額。
ガイドさんが「事務所に連絡してお返事を連絡します。」と言う事で、その日は別なスケジュールを組み楽しみました。
午後になり事務所の方と連絡が取れました。
なんと帰国の準備をして集合場所に来て頂ければトランクなどバスに積み込みツアー終了次第、ホノルルまで戻ってからでは空港まで移動するのでは時間がかかりすぎるので空港手前のホテルに降ろしてくれる。
そこからタクシーで空港まで向えば十分間に合うでしょうとの嬉しいご提案。
土壇場でギリギリの遂行でしたが、おかげさまで思い出に残るサイコーのツアーになりました。
事務局様のご対応に感謝致します。
また、港までの向かうバスの中でのガイドのジェリーさんのトークセンスとルックスもサイコー。
約1時間の移動中楽しすぎてどっちがメインイベントだろうと言う感じ。

Such an amazing experience! Would definitely do this again! The crew that took us was great, as well :)

I participated in the tour on Sunday, September 23rd at 11:00 with my girlfriend. Unfortunately, we didn't get to see any dolphins, which made for a very disappointing tour.

Shortly after departure, we spotted several sea turtles surfacing, which was a great start. However, the weather soon took a turn for the worse. Even after two hours, we still hadn't found any dolphins, and the captain took the boat further out, but the winds were very strong that day, and the sea was quite rough. The boat began to sway violently, causing some people to hit their knees and bleed, while others suffered from seasickness, creating chaos on board.

We did snorkel at one spot, where we saw sea turtles, but due to the rough sea, the visibility wasn't impressive, and there weren't many fish, so it was somewhat underwhelming.

As for the timing, I wouldn't recommend starting at 11:00. After the 9:00 pickup, we returned to Waikiki around 17:00. This timing makes it difficult to schedule other activities, so an earlier start is advisable.

In summary, I fully understand that dolphins are wild animals and not guaranteed to be seen, but it was still a disappointing outcome, so I have to give it one star. I heard that if you don't see dolphins, you can participate again for free at any time in the future, so I would like to try again when I visit Hawaii.

9月23日(日)11:00～のツアーに彼女と２人で参加しました。結果的にイルカとは会えず非常に残念なツアーとなってしまいました。

出航後間もなくすると海面に顔を出すウミガメを何匹も見かけ、上々のスタートでした。ただしばらくすると雲行きが怪しくなってきました。
2時間経過してもなおイルカは見つからず、船長さんが沖の方まで船を出しますが、当日は風が非常に強く海は大荒れ。
船体が上下に大きく揺れ始め、膝を打って血を流す方や船酔いに襲われる方が続出し船内はまさに阿鼻叫喚。

スノーケリングだけ途中1箇所でしました。ウミガメはいましたが、海が荒れたせいか透明度も感動する程ではなく、さほど魚も多くなかったためいまいちでした。

時間の使い方としても11時スタートはお勧めできません。9時過ぎピックアップ後、ワイキキに戻ってきたのが17:00過ぎ。他の予定が入れられなくなるため、朝早い時間をお勧めします。

総評として、イルカが野生の生き物であり必ず会える訳ではないと重々承知しておりましたが、やはり残念な結果となってしまったため星１とさせて頂きます。
イルカが見られなかった場合、期間無制限で再度無料で参加できるそうなので、またハワイを訪れた際にチャレンジしたいと思います。

I am so glad we did the underwater scooters. Staff was professional and knowledge and very patient with the visitors with a language barrier. Would definitely do this again.

I wanted to ride the Premium Submarine, but it was under regular maintenance, so I booked the Standard Submarine instead. I had heard that the windows were smaller and the seats were narrower compared to the Premium, but it wasn't as cramped as I expected, and the windows were decent enough for viewing and taking photos or videos without much issue.

The diving time was 45 minutes, which was sufficient to enjoy the experience. I read on one site that there weren't many fish to see, but during our trip, we were able to see quite a few. If I had to say, the fish didn't appear as colorful as in the advertisements, and overall, it looked quite blue. But that's the true color of the ocean, isn't it? This made me feel like I was really diving.

It was great. One thing to note is that the visibility differs on the left and right sides of the submarine; for example, if there are reefs visible on the right, there's nothing on the left, and vice versa. During those times when nothing is visible, it can get a bit boring.

プレミアム・サブマリンに乗りたかったのですが、定期点検中でスタンダード・サブマリンを予約しました。
プレミアムに比べ窓も小さく席も狭いと聞いていましたが、思ったほど狭くなく、窓もそれなりで、見るのは勿論、写真やビデオ撮影にもそれほど問題はありませんでした。
潜水時間は45分でしたが堪能するのに十分な時間でした。
あるサイトで魚がそれほど見られないと書かれていましたが、私たちの時はそれなりに見ることが出来ました。
強いて言うなら広告のようにカラフルに魚は見えず全体的に青く見えます。
でもそれって本当の海の色なんですよね。
こちらのほうが、本当に潜っているんだなぁっていう気持ちになりました。
よかったです。
あとは、潜水艦の左右で視界が違うので、右に漁礁が見えると左は何もなく、
その反対もあり、その見えない時間はちょっと暇です。

Swimming with dolphins has been a dream of mine for many years. I participated in the tour with a bit of sleepiness from the early morning departure, but I had a great time listening to the staff share many stories about Hawaii and dolphins during the journey; the hour flew by. After boarding, everyone enjoyed chatting together as the captain guided the boat out to sea! I thought we might see only two or three dolphins at most, but when we arrived at the dolphin spot, we encountered over 30 dolphins, and my excitement skyrocketed. We also met sea turtles and gentle sharks, feeling like Ariel♪ After snorkeling, we enjoyed pork rice balls and snacks on the boat while dancing the hula on the way back. From start to finish, it was a truly fun and happy time. I would love to participate again the next time I come to Hawaii.

イルカと泳ぐのが長年の夢でした。朝早くの出発で少し眠さもありながらツアーに参加しましたが、道中にスタッフさんからハワイやイルカについてのお話を沢山聞けて、すごく楽しく1時間があっという間でした。乗船後もみんなで楽しく会話しながら、船長さんの赴くままに船は出航!!!!イルカに会えても、せいぜい2.3頭だろうと思っていましたが、いざイルカ達のポイントに着くと、30頭以上のイルカ達に出会えて、テンションが上がりまくりました。ウミガメや大人しいサメにも出会え、気分はアリエル状態♪シュノーケル後は、船上でポークおにぎりやおかしを食べ、フラダンスを踊りながらの帰航。初めから最後まで、全てがとても楽しい幸せな時間でした。次にハワイに来る時も、また参加したいと思います。
