I had a great time! The sandbar had water up to my knees as the tide came in, but I was able to move around the coral and see a lot of fish while enjoying snorkeling. I would love to participate again if I have the chance!
とても楽しかったです!

I rode at Sweetheart for two days on July 11 and 12 (the canter course was an additional $10). It takes about two hours to get there from Ala Moana by The Bus. There were a lot of children, possibly because Hawaii's schools are on summer break. When we arrived, there was no one at the reception. After informing a wandering person that we had a reservation, a staff member came out, and we signed a waiver before preparing the horses. The four of us enjoy riding outside both domestically and internationally, so we came here intending to gallop. As expected, we were able to ride at speeds of 40 km or more. However, I think it's important to inform the guide about the speed you are comfortable with, as it can be dangerous if you haven't experienced this level of speed beforehand. The canter within the riding club is limited to about 20 km, which feels like shifting from third to fourth gear in a car. We had lunch on a hill overlooking the North Shore, but the lunch box in the horse's saddle pocket got all mixed up due to the up-and-down vibrations. On the second day, we decided not to bring lunch and ate after returning. Also, the stirrups are often too long for Japanese riders, so if they don't fit, it's important to adjust them (or switch to a child’s saddle if adjustments aren't possible) to avoid falling off during canter or gallop. I believe it's better to communicate, even in broken English, regarding speed and other matters, as accidents are the rider's responsibility. Compared to riding in Japan, the sense of freedom is completely different, making it an excellent ranch for those who want to ride fast. (The walking course is just for walking, and the canter course is optional.) It's a pity that the time for each course is predetermined, limiting the options available.
7/11,12の2日間スイートハート(キャンターコースはオプションで$10アップでした)で騎乗。The Busでアラモアナから2時間で行けます。ハワイの学校が夏休みに入ったのか子供たちがいっぱい。我々が着いても受付に誰もいません。うろうろしている人に「予約している」と告げるとスタッフが出てきて免責の書面に各人サインしてから馬の準備。我々4人は内外地で外乗で走ることを楽しんでいますので、ここでもギャロップで走るつもりで来ました。内容は予想通り40Kmかそれ以上のスピードで走ることが出来ました。ただし、事前にこの程度の速度を経験していないと危険ですので、ガイドさんにはどの程度で走るかを指示しておく必要があると思います。乗馬クラブのラチ内での駈足は20Km位までですので車で言うとギアが3速から4速に上がる感じです。途中ノースショアの景色を見下ろせる丘でランチですが、馬のゼッケンのポケットに入れてあったランチボックスの中が上下の振動でグチャグチャになっていました。2日目はランチを持って行かないで戻ってから食事にしました。また、鐙は日本人には長すぎることが多いので、自分に合わない場合は妥協しないで調節(調節出来ない場合は子供用の鞍に替えてもらう)しないとキャンター、ギャロップでは落馬につながります。速度の点も含めて片言ででも英語で意思疎通が出来た方が良いと思います。事故は自己責任ですので。日本での外乗と比べて解放感がまったく違い、速く走りたい方には絶好の牧場です。(歩くコースは歩くだけ、キャンターコースはオプションです)コースによって時間が決まっており選択の巾が少ないのが残念です。

After the Hawaiian buffet at Tree Top Luau, you can enjoy a show featuring impersonators of Elvis, Michael, and Celine Dion.
First, the outdoor Tree Top Luau (it seems to be indoors in case of rain). It was sunny on the day, so we enjoyed the Hawaiian buffet outside. Honestly, it gets hot, so I recommend bringing a fan or something similar.
They serve a welcome drink of one Mai Tai per person. It's a cocktail-like drink, and you can choose whether to have alcohol or not, so no worries.
After that, you go in turn to get your food, but the dishes are lined up in a corridor-like area, so you have to wait a bit before you can get to the food. There are over 20 dishes including roast beef, lomi lomi salmon, huli huli chicken, and a dessert bar, so I think everyone will be full after one trip.
It was quite tasty. While you're eating, dancers perform hula, so I think you'll enjoy it. Afterward, you're guided to the premium seats in the theater. Non-alcoholic drinks are $5, and alcoholic drinks are $10, so don’t forget your money if you want to enjoy a drink while watching.
Once the show starts, you'll see well-known figures like Michael, Celine Dion, and Elvis. However, the highlight is a fire dance performed by a Hawaiian dancer, which is truly worth seeing. Honestly, I wished I could see more of it.
Michael Jackson was also very popular. Even though there were many Japanese guests, the finale was Elvis. I felt that Michael Jackson would have been a more exciting finale. But maybe for Americans, it makes sense for it to be Elvis?
At the end, you can take photos with Elvis, Michael Jackson, and Celine Dion using your own camera, which makes for a great memory, and it's free. The photos taken by the staff at the end cost $25. I thought that was too expensive and declined, but if they offered it for $10 to $15 instead, I think more people would buy them, which seems like a waste.
I recommend this as a memorable part of your Hawaii trip.

The sandbar was very beautiful, and I really felt it was worth going. However, what impressed me the most was being able to swim alongside the sea turtles. Thanks to this tour, I have come to love sea turtles. They are just so cute!
Additionally, the tour guide was a very humorous Hawaiian person, which made the experience enjoyable throughout.
One thing I did notice was that many Japanese tourists left without tipping, which I found disappointing. It might be a culture they are not familiar with and may find it difficult to tip, but it does impact their living expenses and can lead to improved services in the future. I hope that those who enjoyed the experience will consider leaving a tip.
サンドバーはとても綺麗で本当にいってよかったと思いました。
ただそれ以上にウミガメと並走して泳げたことが一番感激しました。
このツアーのお陰でウミガメが大好きになりました。可愛くてしかたありません、
また、ツアーのガイドさんがとてもユーモアのあるハワイの人で終始楽しかったです
。
あと一点思ったのは、日本人観光客の多くがチップを払わずに帰ってしまっていたことが残念に感じました。あまりなじみのない文化で払いにくいかもしれませんが、彼らの生活費にも影響してきますし、今後のサービス向上のにもつながると思うので、楽しかったと思えた方はチップを払っていただければと思いました。

It's the only place in Waikiki where you can see a Polynesian show. The Golden Circle seats are a bit pricey, but they are arranged around the stage, and the buffet is served first, making it recommended for families with children or elderly guests. Since it's outdoors, you can also feel the Hawaiian atmosphere. I would like to give it five stars, but there's a downside of cancellation in case of rain, so I'll deduct one star... but there's nothing we can do about that.
唯一ワイキキでポリネシアンショーが観れるところです。ゴールデンサークルは少し高い金額ですが、舞台周りに席が用意されていて、ブッフェも先に案内されるので子供連れやお年寄り連れなどの場合はオススメです。野外なのでハワイらしさも感じることができます。星5つにしたいのですが、雨天中止というデメリットがあるので星1つ減点・・・でもこればっかりは仕方ないですね。

I apologize for the long message.
I participated with my three children early in the morning on July 19, but unfortunately, we didn't get to see any dolphins. To make matters worse, it seemed that the day was affected by a typhoon, and the waves were quite rough, making for a really tough tour.
As the main event of our Hawaii trip, I wanted my sons, who love swimming, to swim with dolphins. After reading many reviews, I chose this tour, which allows participation from age two, and I was really looking forward to it. I woke up early and took all three kids with me. I wanted to create good memories, so I purchased a USB and an SD card in advance as recommended.
However, after boarding the boat and being tossed around in the rough waves for over an hour while searching for dolphins, even our family, who usually doesn't get seasick, started to feel unwell, along with other participants.
We changed our plans and started with free snorkeling time, but as soon as the boat finally stopped, the nausea peaked... Many people felt sick and were resting on the boat.
Even though we felt unwell, we decided to jump into the sea, but the wave conditions were quite severe, making it difficult even for adults to snorkel. It was a challenging task for my husband and me to care for our three children while swimming, and our four-year-old and two-year-old sons were crying. There were only a few crew members in the water to support us, and there were no floatation devices for the kids. Of course, it wasn't a situation where anyone could play on the trampoline or paddleboard; it seemed like no one was having fun. We returned to the boat early, but the seasickness didn't go away, and eventually, our second son got sick. The only one who enjoyed the slide was our eight-year-old son.
Despite purchasing the SD card and USB in advance, I didn't even realize that underwater photos were being taken, as we spent so little time in the water. I regret buying them since we didn't get to see any dolphins. (Moreover, for some reason, I can't open the photos on the USB after returning home.)
Even after returning to the boat, the seasickness lingered, and I felt unwell, not to mention we hardly saw any dolphins or turtles, so I didn't even feel like eating a cheeseburger. There were a few others who were also taking out food. On the way back, there was a hula dance performance, but the mood inside the boat had dropped significantly, and the crew's high spirits felt out of place.
I heard that other tour companies also didn't encounter any dolphins that day, and I understand that it's nature, so it's not 100% guaranteed. However, most of the time was spent traveling, and the sea conditions were terrible, leaving us with hardly any time in the water. Overall, I was left with dissatisfaction regarding the photos and videos. We received a voucher for half-price participation next time, but it's not easy for our family to come to Hawaii again, and I can't justify the cost of over 80,000 yen for that experience.
If participation is allowed from age two, I wish they would consider more accommodations for children. We have participated in various activities as a family before, but this was the most expensive tour with the lowest satisfaction. While our family trip to Hawaii was enjoyable, thinking back on this day makes me sad.
長文になります、すみません。
7/19早朝から子供3人を連れて参加しましたが、残念ながらイルカには会えませんでした。それどころか、その日は台風の影響らしく波がかなりうねっていて本当に辛いツアーになりました。
今回のハワイ旅行のメインとして、泳ぐのが大好きな息子達にイルカと一緒に泳がせてあげたいと思い、口コミもたくさん読んで2歳から参加できるこのツアーを選びものすごく楽しみに、がんばって早起きをして3人連れて行きました。いい思い出を残したいと思い、USBもSDカードもすすめられるがまま事前に購入しました。
しかし、船に乗って荒々しい波に延々一時間以上?揺られながらイルカを探しまわるが現れず、その時点で船酔いしない我が家も、他の参加者も具合が悪そうに…⤵
予定を変更して、先にフリーシュノーケルタイムと、やっと停舶したと同時に気持ち悪さがピークに。。。何人もの方が気持ちが悪くなって船で休んでいました。
我が家も気持ち悪いながらも
せっかくだからと思いきって海に飛び込みましたが、波のうねりがかなりひどく、大人でもシュノーケルが難しい状況なうえに、夫婦で3人の子供達をケアしながら泳ぐのは至 難の技で、4歳と2歳の息子は号泣。それでも海に入ってるクルーはわずかだし、子供へのサポートや浮き具なども特になし。もちろんトランポリンやパドルボートなどで遊べるような状況ではなく、誰も遊んでいなかったようです。早々に船に戻るも船酔いが治らず、とうとう次男は戻してしまいました。唯一8才の息子は滑り台は楽しんでいましたが。
事前にSDカード&USBを購入したのにも関わらず、肝心な水中での写真なんて撮られている自覚もありません、そもそも海に入ってる時間がわずかだったので。イルカに会えないなら買わなければ良かったと思っています。(しかも、帰国してからなぜかUSBの写真が開けない)
船に戻っても船酔いが治らず、気持ちは悪いわイルカにも亀にもろくに会えないわで、チーズバーガーなんてましてや食べる気になりませんでした。同じようにテイクアウトしてる人も、何人かいました。帰りもフラダンスの披露などありましたが、もう船内のテンションは落ちまくり、クルー達の高いテンションは空回り、といった感じでした。
その日は他のツアー会社もどこもイルカに遭遇できなかったとのことで、自然のものなので、100%ではないのは承知済みですが、ほとんどが移動で終わり、さらに海のコンディションは最悪で水中にはほとんど入れず、写真や動画撮影に対しても、全てにおいて不満だけが残りました。次回半額で参加できるバウチャーを、いただきましまが、我が家にとってそんなに簡単にハワイに来られる訳でもありませんし、そもそもあの内容に対しての5人で80000円以上の負担は納得がいきません。
2歳から参加OKとしているなら、もっと子供への配慮を考えてほしいものです。今まで様々なアクティビティに、家族で参加してきましたが、今までで一番高額で 満足度は一番低いツアーでした。今回の家族でのハワイ旅行は楽しかったですが、この日のことを思い出すと悲しくなります。

I checked the tide chart in advance and chose the best day to participate during my stay. As a result, the weather was perfect, and the sandbar was truly beautiful, reaching up to my ankles.
Although it was a morning plan, the sandwiches were delicious, and everything went smoothly without any waste, which I think was just right for families with small children. The captain was also very funny and kind, allowing my sons to steer the boat and taking many photos for us, showing great consideration.
事前に潮見表などで、確認して滞在中一番条件のいい日を選び参加しました。
結果、お天気も最高でサンドバーもくるぶし辺りで本当にきれいでした✨
午前中のプランでしたがサンドイッチも美味しくいただき、無駄なくスムーズな段取りで、小さな子連れにはちょうど良かったと思います。

I participated with my elderly husband's parents. My mother is a good swimmer, but she was worried because of her mobility issues. However, with the support of our guide, Saki, she was able to enjoy the tour until the end.
We were very lucky to encounter dolphins right after we set sail. However, I was surprised that we had to dive from the boat to swim with the dolphins. Because of this, my mother was too scared to enter the water, but we were still able to see the dolphins from the boat. They were very cute, jumping and spinning around. When my husband and I jumped in at Saki's signal, we were able to see a large group of ten dolphins right below us. We were very excited to see the dolphins up close.
I have participated in various dolphin tours overseas, but this was the first time I saw wild dolphins swimming in the ocean, so it was a great experience. We also got to see many turtles.
With Saki's help, my parents were able to get close to see the turtles as well.
I am truly grateful to Saki and all the staff at Dolphin & You for their kindness. It really became a wonderful memory. Thank you very much. Next time, I would like to participate with my husband.
I believe the photo we took at the end of the tour, where everyone is smiling, shows how enjoyable this tour was. I hope this happiness comes across in the photo I’m posting.
Dolphin & You is the best!
高齢の主人の両親と参加しました。
母は泳ぎが得意ですが足が不自由ということで心配していましたがガイドのサキさんのサポートもあり最後までツアーを楽しむことが出来ました。
お目当てのイルカさんには出港後すぐに遭遇出来非常にラッキーでした。
しかしイルカと泳ぐのに船からダイブということには私も驚きました。

The low tide on the day of participation coincided perfectly with our arrival at the sandbar (11 AM), so I decided to join the tour.
Even though it was low tide, there was no sand exposed even in the shallowest areas, and the water level was about up to my calves.
However, the water was very clear and beautiful! The surrounding areas were deep and a deep blue, while the sandbar itself was a lighter blue, creating a stunning contrast!
Even though it was July, it was a bit chilly when we got out of the water. But since the weather was nice, drying off and getting into the sun helped a lot. It seemed a bit tough for my 4-year-old, though.
If the weather is bad or during the winter, you might need warm clothing.
The barbecue burger was also very delicious. It might have been the tastiest meal I had during my stay in Hawaii!
I'm really glad I participated. Thank you for the wonderful experience!
参加当日の干潮時刻が、ちょうどサンドバーに到着時刻(11時)だったので、ツアーに申し込むことにしました。
干潮時刻だったけど、一番浅い所でも砂が顔をだすことはなく、ふくらはぎくらいまでは水面があったかと思います。
でも、海水の透明度がたかくて、とってもきれいでした!
それに、回りは深くてディープブルーなのに、サンドバーのところは、水色で、そのコントラストもとってもきれいでした!
7月だったけど、海から上がると、寒かったです。ただ天気がよかったので水気をとって、日向にでると、大丈夫でしたよ。4歳児には少々辛かったようですが(^^;
お天気が悪かったり、冬の時期だと、防寒具も必要かもしれないですね。
バーベキューバーガーもとってもおいしかったです。
ハワイ滞在中の食事の中で一番おいしく感じたかもしれません(^^)v

This was my first time in Hawaii. Since we wanted to move at our own pace, we arranged for an optional tour instead of a travel agency tour. The tour description mentioned, "If you're lucky, you might encounter a sea turtle?!" but I thought, "Yeah, right, if we're lucky," and didn't really expect much (laughs).
After actually participating, I was first struck by the beauty of the ocean! At 155 cm tall, I could see all the way to the bottom even in water that was waist to chest deep. I was so excited to be in the Hawaiian sea for the first time that I was acting like a kid. The sun was really strong, and when I tried to put on my sunglasses that I had on my head... they were gone! I must have dropped them somewhere in the ocean (;;). Even though it was my own carelessness, I was really bummed because they were my favorite, and my excitement dropped from 100% to 70%. However, I decided to search the area while playing around, as we had an event for snorkeling in the afternoon.
I searched for about five minutes when suddenly, I spotted something brown and white, like a marble, moving with fin-like claws! "Wait? A turtle? No way!!" I quickly stood up, and to my surprise, a sea turtle was swimming right in front of me! It was an incredible close encounter! My excitement shot up to 120%. I was truly amazed!
Unfortunately, I didn't have my camera at that moment, so I can't share any photos. Later, someone else found my sunglasses, which was such a relief.
The lunch burger was also fantastic, with freshly grilled meat and fresh vegetables and fruits. The beans were delicious, and the local tour staff played guitar and sang soothing songs, which made it very enjoyable.
The afternoon snorkeling event was also great since we practiced perfectly in the morning (laughs). The sight of the coral fish coexisting was beautiful, and I was completely captivated.
If I have the chance to go to Hawaii again, I would definitely want to join this tour. It became a wonderful page in my memory!
今回初めてのハワイでした。自分たちの好きな時間で動きたいので、旅行会社のツアーではなくオプショナルツアーで手配しました。
このツアーの説明に「運が良ければウミガメと遭遇?!」と書いてありましたけれど「はいはい、運が良ければねー」ってほぼ期待していませんでした(笑)。
実際に参加してみて。
まず海の美しさに感動!身長155㎝の私が立って腰から胸ぐらいの深さでも足元までちゃんと見えます。
初めてのハワイの海にテンション上がっちゃって年甲斐もなく超はしゃいでました。やっぱり日差しが強いので、頭にのせていたサングラスをかけようとしたら・・・ない!海のどこかでお落としてしまったのです(;;)
自分の不注意とはいえ、お気に入りだったので半分諦めながらも100%のテンションが70%まで落ちて残念な気持ちになったのですが、午後からあるイベント”シュノーケリング”の練習を兼ねて遊んでいた周辺を探してみました。
5分ぐらい探したでしょうか、ふっと目線の先に茶色と白のマーブルのような、爪もギザギザになっていてるヒレのようなものがひょいひょいと動いているではありませんか?
「え?カメ?うそ!まさか!!」と、慌てて立ち上がってみると、なんと本当にウミガメさんが私の目の前をスイスイと泳いでいるのです!!
まさかのニアピン!!
テンションは一気に120%までUP。ほんとに感激しました!
そのときカメラを持っていなかったので写真をアップできないのが残念です。
後ほど、別の方がサングラスも見つけてくださり、本当によかったです。
ランチのハンバーガーも、焼きたてのお肉と新鮮な野菜、フルーツ。ビーンズもとてもおいしかったし、BGMに現地ツアースタッフの方がギター1本で心地よい歌声を聞かせてくれとても気持ちよかったです。
午後のイベント”シュノーケリング”も午前中にばっちり(笑)練習したのでこれも最高です!!
サンゴのお魚の共存する姿がとても美しく、夢中でした。
次にハワイに行く機会があるなら必ず参加したいツアーです。すばらしい思い出の1ページになりました!!

I participated in a company trip with my family. I checked the low tide times and aimed to join during the lowest tide (around ±0), but unfortunately, it was still about 30 cm underwater. However, we enjoyed delicious hamburgers on the boat in the beautiful sea, and we were able to see sea turtles up close. It was the best tour where we could experience something out of the ordinary, including snorkeling for the first time with my children. My kids (ages 5 and 11) were thrilled with their first experience.
家族一緒の社員旅行で参加させていただきました。
干潮の時間を調べ、滞在中の一番潮引く時間帯(±0付近)を狙って参加したのですが、残念んがらそれでも30cmは浸かってましたが、綺麗な海に船上でのおいしいハンバーガー、ウミガメも間近で見ることも出来、また、子供と一緒に初めてのシュノーケリングと、非日常を体験することが出来る最高のツアーでした。子供(5歳と11歳)も初めての体験に大喜びでした。

I was really looking forward to swimming with dolphins this time. I woke up at 5 AM, rubbing my sleepy eyes, and had breakfast before heading out for this tour.
Even for someone with diving experience like me, encountering such a large group of dolphins was truly moving.
They were moving in a large group just below the surface. Just when you think they've gone, they come back again.
It was truly a generous experience.
It felt as if they were inviting us.
They showed no signs of fear towards us.
During the cruise, the cheerful staff kept the atmosphere lively with Hawaiian dances and conversations, making it absolutely the best experience.
今回は、イルカと一緒に泳ぐことができるということで、
楽しみにしていました。朝5時に起き眠い目をこすりながら
ブレックファーストしこのツアーに臨みました。
ダイビングの経験がある私にとっても、これほどのイルカの大群に逢えるとは・・・・。
まさに感動ものでした。
水面、割と深くを大群で移動しているんですね。行ったかと思うとまた、戻ってくるんですね
まさに、大サービスです。
まるで、我々を誘っているかのように。
我々をを怖がる様子もなく。
クルーズ中は陽気なスタッフのハワイアンダンスとハワイアントークで盛り上がり
まさに最高でした。

I was looking for a half-day optional tour in the morning and found one that seemed just right, so I signed up. Since it was a surprise, I didn't have high expectations, but the sandbar was very beautiful, and I was impressed by the scenery and the clarity of the water. It's a completely different ocean compared to Waikiki Beach. I was also happy to see a sea turtle swimming a little. The boat was a large cruiser, so it didn't rock as much as I expected, and I didn't get seasick. The staff were cheerful, and it was a fun tour. I didn't go snorkeling this time, but if I participate again, I would like to experience snorkeling for a bit longer. Thank you very much.
午前中の半日位のオプショナルツアーを探していたら丁度良さそうなのがあったので申込みました。
お任せだったので特に期待していませんでしたが、サンドバーはとてもキレイで景色と海のキレイさに感動しました。ワイキキの浜辺とは全く違う海です。ウミガメが泳いでいるのも少し見れたので良かったです。船も大きなクルザーだったので思っていたより揺れなかったので酔いませんでした。スタッフの方々も明るくて楽しいツアーでした。今回はシュノーケルはしなかったのですが、もし次参加する時があればもう少し長めでシュノーケルも体験してみたいです。ありがとうございました。

The bus ride from Waikiki took just over an hour, but I had a great time. Since there were many participants this time, we were separated into English and Japanese boats at the harbor. The Japanese boat was, of course, Japanese-only. A young Japanese female staff member clearly explained various instructions and information. At the sandbar, the staff took photos of us in various poses, which made me very satisfied. We practiced snorkeling, but there were no fish here...
After enjoying about an hour at the sandbar, we had lunch. I was lured back to the boat early by the delicious smell of grilled hamburger patties. The burger had a juicy meat patty and was delicious. I will never forget the taste of lunch on the boat while drinking beer.
We moved to a different location for snorkeling. There were many fish near the coral reef cliffs. And among them, a sea turtle was swimming. I’ve snorkeled in Hawaii several times, but this was the first time I encountered a sea turtle so closely. It swam right under my belly and into the coral reef. It became the best memory! ♪
ワイキキからは1時間余りというバスでの移動でしたがとっても楽しめました。
今回は参加人数が多かったということもあってハーバーから出航時には英語船と日本語船と分かれていました。日本語船は当然ながら日本語オンリーです。日本人の若い女性スタッフさんがいろいろな注意事項や説明などもわかりやすく教えて下さいました。サンドバーではスタッフさんがいろんなポーズで写真を撮って下さって大満足でした。
シュノーケルの練習もしましたがここには魚はいません・・・
1時間ほどサンドバーで楽しんだ後にランチ。。
ハンバーガーのパテを焼くいいにおいに誘われて早々と船に戻ってきてしまいました。
ジューシーなハンバーグといった感じのお肉のバーガー、美味しかったです。
ビールを飲みながらの船上ランチの味は忘れられません。
場所を変えてのシュノーケリング。
珊瑚礁の崖のところにはたくさんの魚たちがいました。
そしてその中をウミガメが泳いでいたのです。何度かハワイでのシュノーケルをしましたが
ウミガメとこんなに近くで遭遇したのは初めてです。私のお腹の下を通って珊瑚礁の中に入っていきました。
最高の思い出になりました♪

We stayed in Oahu for our 10yr anniversary and this was attended the night of our very anniversary and all I can say is that the Luau was amazing. When everyone celebrating and anniversary was asked to go on stage, given flowers, torches came out and they shut off the lights and had the couples dance under the stars, it made our night. We could not have asked for a better experience. We had a great time, the staff was amazing and the event was more awesome than I could have ever anticipated. Highly recommend.

When it comes to Hawaii, I heard this beach is the place to be. Since we were beginners in Hawaii, we opted for a guided tour. Just as we saw in the pictures, it was like a heavenly ocean. The water was crystal clear and it was incomparable to Honolulu Beach!
ハワイといえは、こちらのビーチと聞きました。
わたしたちは、ハワイは初心者だったので、オプションをつけて行きました。
写真で見たとおり、天国の海のようでした。
水も透き通っていて、ホノルルビーチとは比べものにならなかったです!

My wife and I had never kayaked before and were a little nervous about an ocean kayak. We had contacted the provider before booking and they assured us that they could accommodate even first-timers, which they certainly did. The guides explained everything we needed to know about handling the kayak and were with our group, which they keep small, at all times from launch, through the ocean paddling, and landing. Our guide, Clay, was extremely knowledgeable about kayaking, the bird sanctuary island, which is the destination, and the islands in general.
Everything that was listed in the description of the excursion was provided.
