Oahu
I recommend this place if you have small children who might get bored while shopping. There are various attractions, so you won't get tired even after spending a whole day there. There are lockers available, so your belongings will be safe. It might be good to have around $30 and a card. The wave pool is fun, but it can be a bit dangerous for shorter kids. Most attractions require a height of about 125 centimeters. I visited in January, and it wasn't cold as long as it was sunny. Bringing a hoodie or something similar will help you feel comfortable even if it gets chilly.
小さい子供がいて、買い物に飽きたらおすすめします。
いろんなアトラクションがあり1日居ても飽きません。
ロッカーがあるので荷物も大丈夫です。
30ドル位と、カードがあるとよいかもしれません。
波のプールは楽しいですが、身長が小さいと少し危ないです
どのアトラクションも125センチくらいは必要です。
1月に来ましたが、晴れてれば寒くないので大丈夫です。
パーカーなど持っていくと、寒くても安心です。
I participated in mid-January under a cloudy sky. I arrived a little before the 10:30 opening, and the parking lot was available. The baggage check was thorough, and food and drinks were confiscated. There are both small and large lockers, but the small ones are quite small, while the large ones are about the size of a medium locker in Japan. With two adults and two children, we managed to cram in bath towels, changes of clothes, and shoes, barely getting the door to close. I think it's best to bring as little luggage as possible. The large locker was $18 and allowed for unlimited access. You set the locker key number and make the payment using a machine. It was reassuring to have staff who spoke Japanese nearby. Changing clothes is done in the changing room inside the restroom.
The park isn't very large, but as indicated by the availability of parking, there weren't many people. It was disappointing that the lazy river was closed all day, but the slides were enjoyable with no waiting. For those who aren't fond of slides, there was a wave pool to float in, and there was also a shallow pool for small children, but it might be tough to spend the whole day there. It seemed like they were alternating between opening and closing the adjacent slides.
The kids seemed to enjoy the Tornado the most, and they appeared to have the best time at Wet 'n' Wild Hawaii during our trip to Hawaii. I was unsure about the pool in Hawaii, but I'm glad we included it in our travel plans.
1月中旬の曇り空の中、参加しました。
オープンの10時半少し前に到着しましたが、駐車場は空いてました。手荷物検査はしっかり確認され、飲食物は没収されます。ロッカーは大小ありますが、小はかなり小さめ、大サイズで日本の中サイズといった感じです。大人2人と子供2人でバスタオル、着替え、靴をパンパンに押し込んでなんとか扉が閉まりました。なるべく荷物は少なく持って行った方が良いと思います。ロッカー大は、$18で開け閉め自由でした。また、ロッカーは機械でロッカーの鍵番号を設定し、料金の支払いを行います。日本語が話せるスタッフが側にいて安心でした。着替えはトイレ内の更衣室で行います。
パーク内はそれほど広くありませんが、駐車場の空き具合通り人はまばら。流れるプールが一日中クローズだったのが残念でしたが、スライダーは順番待ち無く乗り放題で快適でした。スライダーが苦手の方は波のでるプールでプカプカ、小さい子供は子供用の浅いプールもありましたが、1日過ごすのは厳しいかも。また、隣り合うスライダーを交互にオープンクローズしている感じでした。
子供たちはトルネードが一番楽しかったらしく、また、ハワイ旅行の中でもウエットアンドワイルドハワイを一番楽しんでいる様子でした。ハワイでプールはどうかなぁと思いましたが、旅行プランに組んで良かったです。
I attended with a friend.
First, a story about a mistake.
I found out at the reception that I had the wrong date for my reservation, and I thought, "Oh no! We can't see it!" However, the woman at the reception changed the date for us, and we were able to attend. I was really looking forward to this show, so she felt like a goddess to me. Thank you so much!
We entered through the VIP entrance, enjoyed a welcome drink and appetizers, and then the show began.
We were guided to our seats in the order we entered, and I think we were about 10th in line, but we ended up right in the center, front row, which was super lucky.
The dinner course was delicious, and I was completely satisfied.
The show featured hula, impersonators, and fire dancing, all of which were wonderful and left me very satisfied!
As a fan of Michael, I was completely captivated by him! It was truly amazing, and I highly recommend this show.
After the show, as we headed towards the exit, the performers were taking commemorative photos, and I got to take a picture with Michael. His voice was so similar, and it was moving. I highly recommend this show!
友達と2人で参加しました。
まず、失敗談です。
予約をしていた日付を間違えていた事を受付で知り、もうダメ‼︎見れない‼︎と思っていた所、受付の女性の方が日付を変更してくれて見れる事になりました。このショーを凄く楽しみにしていたのでその女性が神様に見えました。ホントありがとうございました。
VIP入り口から入り、ウェルカムドリンク、前菜を頂き開場です。
入る順番に席に案内されますが、私達は10番目位だったと思いますがステージの中央1番前で凄くラッキーでした。
ディナーコースはどれも美味しくお腹もいっぱいになり満足できました。
ショーはフラ、そっくりさんショー、ファイヤーダンス、どれも素晴らしく大満足!
わたしはマイケルのファンなのでマイケルに釘付け!ホント素晴らしかったオススメのショーです。
ショーが終わり出口の方に向かうと出演者の方々が記念撮影をしていてマイケルと写真を撮らせてもらいましが喋る声もそっくりで感動しました。オススメのショーです
Thank you very much for visiting us. We are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed your time here. We sincerely look forward to welcoming you back when you come to Hawaii again.
この度はご来場頂きまして、誠に有難うございます。楽しめて頂けたご様子で、私共も大変嬉しく思っております。またハワイにお越しの際には、ご来場頂けますよう、スタッフ一同心よりお待ち申し上げます。
I was looking forward to the sandbar!
On the day, there was a downpour, but I was able to enjoy snorkeling and stand-up paddleboarding.
The BBQ lunch was delicious, and I went back for seconds multiple times!
The staff were friendly, took lots of photos, and chatted with us, making it a great experience.
楽しみにしていたサンドバー!
当日はスコールもありましたが、シュノーケリング、サップも楽しむことができました。
ランチのBBQはおいしくて何度もお替りしました!
スタッフの方も気さくで、たくさん写真をとってくれてり、お話してくれたり良き経験をすることができました。
Aloha! This is Captain Bruce's Paradise of the Sea Tour. Thank you very much for participating. We are honored to hear that you were looking forward to it! We are also glad to know that you enjoyed the tour. All of our staff sincerely look forward to your next visit.
アロハ!キャプテンブルース天国の海ツアーです。この度はご参加いただき誠にありがとうございました。楽しみにしていただけていたとのこと、光栄です!!ツアーも楽しんで頂けたようで、嬉しく思います。またのお越しをスタッフ一同心よりお待ち申し上げております。
It's understandable since it's the rainy season, but the weather was bad and the boat was really rocky. I feel like I missed out on lunch because I couldn't eat anything. I was also disappointed that I couldn't see any whales.
雨季だから仕方ないんですが、天気が悪くて船が凄く
揺れました。
ランチも、何も食べられなくて損した気がします。
鯨も見られなくて、ガッカリ
We are truly sorry that we were unable to meet your expectations this time. We would like to improve our services to ensure that you can enjoy your experience in the future. Thank you for your feedback. We look forward to serving you again.
今回お客様にご満足いただけなかった事、誠に残念で申し訳ございません。今後お客様にお楽しみいただけるよう、サービスの向上、改善をしていきたいと存じます。ご指摘ありがとうございました。今後ともよろしくお願いいたします。
The ship was heaving too much. My family got seasick. But I could watch whales.
It was a cloudy day during the rainy season, but I was able to enjoy it without any downpours. I was amazed when a sandbar suddenly appeared from a depth of 10 meters! I didn't bring reef shoes, so I walked barefoot, which was a bit painful on the soles of my feet (laughs). During snorkeling, I was really happy to see beautiful fish and sea turtles up close! I want to visit Hawaii during the best season next time!
雨季で生憎の曇り空でしたが、スコールが降ることなく楽しめました。水深10mのところから急にサンドバーが現れて感動!リーフシューズを持参していなかったので、裸足で歩きましたが少し足裏が痛かったです(笑)シュノーケリングでは、綺麗な魚たち、ウミガメを間近で見ることが出来て本当に嬉しかった!次はベストシーズンの時にHawaiiに訪れたいと思いました!
Aloha! This is the Captain Bruce's Paradise Ocean Tour. Thank you very much for participating this time. The weather in Hawaii at the beginning of January was quite rainy, wasn't it? It seems that it has finally started to clear up recently. The weather can be quite unpredictable, but I'm glad we didn't get rained on. I'm also happy to hear that you were able to see some turtles while snorkeling. We all sincerely look forward to your next visit.
アロハ!キャプテンブルース天国の海ツアーです。この度はご参加いただき誠にありがとうございました。一月初旬のハワイは雨続きでしたね。最近になってようやく晴れてきたように感じます。天気はなかなか読めないものですが、雨には降られなくて良かったです。シュノーケルではカメさんにも会えたようで嬉しく思います。またのお越しをスタッフ一同心よりお待ち申し上げております。
We were guided to our seats in the order we lined up. It was definitely worth getting seats in the front. The golden seats allowed us to choose where to sit at a round table with a white tablecloth, so we secured a spot where we could easily see the stage. Since the actual show starts after the meal, I realized later that we could have chosen a closer table, as we could just turn our chairs around even if we were facing away from the stage.
並んだ順に部屋に案内されました。やはり前方席にする価値はありました。ゴールデンシートは白いテーブルクロスのかかった丸テーブルの中で好きなところに座れたので、ステージが見やすいところを確保しました。実際のショーは食事の後なので、ステージに背を向けた席でも椅子の向きを変えれば良かったので、もっと近いテーブルをとれば良かったと後で気づきました。
The weather in Hawaii in January was not great. This time, there was light rain from the morning, it was a bit chilly, and the wind was quite strong, which made me worry. However, the staff created a very fun and bright atmosphere for the participants who were feeling down. When we actually arrived at the sandbar, the rain stopped, and the water was surprisingly not too cold (everyone borrowed free wetsuits). After taking photos at the sandbar and returning to the boat, we saw a sea turtle swimming around the boat. Everyone's low spirits instantly lifted, and we started taking lots of pictures. There was also a snorkeling lesson in shallow water, where we swam about 10 meters to see if we were okay before going to deeper areas, which was great for beginners. I thought I couldn't do it because I can't see anything without my glasses, but they lent me prescription goggles, so I was able to give snorkeling a try. The waves were quite high, but I managed to get through, which was good. My first snorkeling experience was amazing; there were lots of coral reefs below me, and I could see colorful fish swimming around. Plus, I even encountered a sea turtle, which was fantastic. By the time we were heading back, the clouds cleared, and the sun came out, making the sea sparkle beautifully. I never thought snorkeling could be this wonderful. I was so happy to have such a great experience. The driver who picked us up from the hotel was also friendly and wonderful. I truly appreciate how well the staff treated us. If I come to Hawaii again, I would love to join this tour once more.
1月のハワイは天気がイマイチ。今回も朝から小雨がパラパラ、肌寒く、風もなかなか強くて大丈夫かと心配でした。ブルーな参加者達に対して、スタッフさん達はものすごく楽しく明るく雰囲気づくりをしてくれました。実際サンドバーまで到着すると、雨はあがり、海の中も思いのほか寒くなく(無料のウェットスーツをみんな借りました)サンドバーで写真撮って船に戻るとウミガメが、船の周りを回っていました。みんな低かったテンションが一気に上がって写真を撮りまくっていました。シュノーケリングも浅瀬でレッスンがあり、10メートルくらい泳いでみて大丈夫そうなら足のつかないところに行くという、初心者にはありがたいものでした。私は眼鏡をとったらなんにも見えないので無理だと諦めていましたが、度付きのゴーグルを貸してくださったのでシュノーケリングにチャレンジできました。波がなかなか高かったけどなんとか進めたので良かったです。初シュノーケリングは最高で、眼下にはサンゴ礁がたくさんあり、カラフルなお魚がいっぱい泳いでいるのが見れました。しかもウミガメにも遭遇できて言うことなしです。帰る頃には雲も切れて晴れ間見え、海がキラキラして素敵でした。シュノーケリングがこんなに素敵だとは思いませんでした。素晴らしい体験ができて嬉しかったです。またホテルからピックアップしてくださったドライバーさんもフレンドリーで素敵でした。スタッフの方々にはほんとに良くしていただき感謝です。ハワイに来たらまたこのツアーに参加したいです。
Aloha! Thank you very much for participating in the Captain Bruce's Paradise Ocean Tour. We understand that it can be disappointing when the weather doesn't cooperate, especially when you were looking forward to the tour. During such times, our staff works even harder to ensure that our guests have an enjoyable experience. We are delighted to hear that you were satisfied with our staff's hospitality. It's great to know that you enjoyed snorkeling as well! It truly is a wonderful experience, like swimming in an aquarium! We sincerely look forward to welcoming you back again.
アロハ!キャプテンブルース天国の海ツアーです。この度はご参加いただき誠にありがとうございました。せっかく楽しみにしていたツアー。あいにくのお天気だとがっかりしてしまいますよね。そんな時ほど、スタッフはお客様に楽しんでいただけるように、普段よりさらに頑張ってお仕事をさせていただいています。スタッフのホスピタリティーにご満足いただけたようで嬉しく思います。スノーケルも楽しんで頂けたようで良かったです!まるで水族館を泳いでいるような、素敵な体験ですよね!!またのお越しをスタッフ一同心よりお待ち申し上げております。
The weather was cloudy with occasional rain, which may have contributed to the slightly high waves that caused the boat to rock significantly. While the rest of my family seemed to struggle with seasickness, I was able to see a baby whale perfectly! The last time I went, I saw several adult whales, but this time there was only one baby. It was small and adorable.
天気は曇り時々雨でよくなかったためか、海の波が少し高くて船が大きく揺れました。わたし以外の家族は船酔いで大変そうでしたが、わたしはクジラの赤ちゃんをバッチリ見ました!前回乗った時は大人のクジラが数頭見られたのですが、今回は赤ちゃん1頭のみでした。ミニサイズで可愛かったです。
Aloha! We are excited to hear that you enjoyed the whale watching cruise with us. We hope to have the pleasure of hosting you again. Thank you for taking the time to write a review!
アロハ!あなたが私たちと一緒にホエールウォッチングクルーズを楽しんだことを聞いて私たちは興奮しています。私たちはあなたを再びホストする喜びがあることを願っています。レビューを書くのに時間を割いてくれたマハロ!
I wanted to go canoeing, but there were no canoes anywhere. I just paddled on a surfboard. Since I have a 5-year-old child, I tried to reserve a kayak, but I was told, "There are few available, so please let us know on the boat. We'll pass along your request," yet there was no preparation for the kayak. The malasadas and barbecue were delicious, but overall, considering everything, it wasn't worth the price.
カヌーをやりたかったのに カヌーなどどこにもない。サーフボードにまたがって漕ぐだけ。子供(5さい)がいるのでザヤックを予約しようとしたら「数が少ないので、船上で言ってください。リクエストは伝えておきます」と言われたが、ザヤックの用意は無し。マラサダとバーベキューは美味しかったけど、総合的に考えると値段に見合わない。
Thank you very much for participating in the Captain Bruce's Paradise of the Sea Tour. We sincerely apologize for not being able to provide the canoes and kayaks as you pointed out, due to strong winds and weather conditions. It seems we failed to explain this both in advance and on-site, and we are truly sorry for that. We deeply regret that we could not meet your expectations despite your participation. Moving forward, we will make further efforts to ensure that you are satisfied with the entire tour experience, including snorkeling, activities, and meals, regardless of weather conditions. We sincerely look forward to welcoming you back on our tours in the future.
この度はキャプテンブルース天国の海ツアーへのご参加誠にありがとうございました。ご指摘いただきましたカヌーやザヤックに関しましては、風の強さや天候などによりご使用いただけないことがあるのですが、そのことを事前にそして現地でもご説明していなかったようで大変申し訳ございませんでした。せっかくご参加いただいたのにご期待にお応えできなかったことを心よりお詫び申し上げます。今後は天候などの自然条件に関わらずシュノーケリングやアクティビティ、そしてお食事などでツアー全体を通してにご満足いただけますようさらなる努力を重ねてまいります。またの機会にぜひ弊社ツアーへお越しいただけますことを心よりお待ち申し上げております。
The boat was beautiful and nice, but the important thing, the whale, was only seen a little bit of its back. It's understandable since it's nature, but it does lower your spirits when you can't see them. Well, it's a gamble.
船は綺麗で良かったけど、肝心のクジラは背中がちょこッと見えただけ。自然相手だからしょうがないけど、会えないとテンション下がります。まぁ、賭けですね。
Aloha! Thank you for sharing your review. We are excited to hear that you enjoyed the beautiful boat! However, we are sorry to hear that it wasn't as exciting as you expected. Often, the ocean can be very unpredictable, and sightings of marine life can vary depending on the time. We appreciate your valuable feedback and please feel free to share it with the team. Mahalo!
アロハ!レビューを共有していただきありがとうございます。あなたが美しい船を楽しんだことを聞いて私たちは興奮しています!しかし、あなたが期待していたほどエキサイティングではなかったと聞いて申し訳ありません。多くの場合、海は非常に予測不能であり、水中生物の目撃は時間によって異なります。貴重なご意見をお待ちしております。ぜひチームで共有してください。マハロ!
I went with my high school freshman and my fourth grader. It probably depends on the child, but my daughter changed clothes halfway through and became the photographer with her smartphone, haha. The fourth grader was overjoyed!! The adults also returned to their childhood, screaming with excitement, and it was so much fun. Hawaii is enjoyable even without the ocean; it was a new discovery. We'll definitely go again next year.
高1と小4の子供と行きました。
高校生はその子によるのでしょうが、我が娘は途中から着替えてスマホでカメラマンに徹していました笑
小4男子は大喜び!!
付き合う大人も童心に帰ってキャーキャー叫んで、すごく楽しかったです。
海じゃなくても楽しいHawaii、新発見です。
来年もまた行きます。
Unfortunately, we were unable to see any whales. However, the breakfast buffet on the ship was very delicious, and we were able to relax while enjoying the vast ocean view. I look forward to the next opportunity.
残念ながら鯨を見ることはできませんでした。
しかし船の上での朝ご飯バイキングはとても美味しく、広大な海を眺めてのんびりとした時間を過ごすことができました。
また次の機会に期待します。
Thank you for using Star of Honolulu. We are truly sorry that there were no whale sightings. However, we are very pleased that you were able to enjoy breakfast at a leisurely pace. We hope you will join us again on your next visit to Hawaii, and we will continue to work hard to improve. Thank you very much.
この度はスターオフホノルルをご利用いただきありがとうございました。鯨の観測がなく、本当に残念でした。それでも朝食をゆっくりと楽しんで頂けたこと、心より嬉しく感じております。またハワイにお越しの際に、再乗船していただけることを願いながら、より改善に向けてスタッフ一同努力してまいります。本当にありがとうございました。
In early December, I participated in a tour recommended by a colleague with my family of seven across three generations. We enjoyed the popular malasadas from Hawaii on the boat and headed offshore in less than seven minutes. The weather wasn't great, and the water was cold, reaching up to my waist, but I was amazed by the number of sea turtles. They approached us without fear. The tour guide was also very friendly. My 84-year-old and 82-year-old in-laws were thrilled and having a great time. The buffet-style BBQ lunch was delicious, and we went back for seconds. There was a little incident at the end, but I was grateful for the tour guide's quick response. This was a tour I would love to join again when I come back to Hawaii. Next time, I want to participate during a time with good weather in the shallow waters. Thank you so much for your help!
12月頭に仕事仲間にすすめられたツアーに三世代家族7人で参加してきました
船上でハワイで人気のマラサダを食べ7分足らずで沖合いに
天気もイマイチで海の中は冷たく腰まで水があったけどウミガメの多さに感動でした。人間におそることもなく普通によってきました
添乗員さんも皆んなとてもフレンドリー
84歳と82歳の義両親も大喜びではしゃいでいました
ブッフェスタイルのBBQランチが美味しくておかわりも
最後にハプニングもあったけど添乗員さんの敏速な対応に感謝でした
次にハワイにきてもまた参加したいツアーだった
今度は天気のいい浅瀬の時間に参加したいです。
本当にお世話になりありがとうございました。
Aloha! This is the Captain Bruce's Paradise Ocean Tour. Thank you very much for participating this time. Thank you for sharing the wonderful photos of the sandbar, the turtle, and your family! Your in-laws at 84 and 82 years old are so young! Please bring them back to the sandbar again! We all sincerely look forward to your next visit.
アロハ!キャプテンブルース天国の海ツアーです。この度はご参加いただき誠にありがとうございました。素敵なサンドバーの写真、カメさんの写真、家族写真!!シェアしていただきありがとうございます。84歳と82歳の義両親!!お若いですね!!ぜひお二人もまたサンドバーに連れてきてくださいね!!!またのお越しをスタッフ一同心よりお待ち申し上げております。
The waves were high, and I think it also depends on the tides, but the water depth at the sandbar was deep. Only those who could swim against the waves could participate in snorkeling where the coral reef fish were, and I couldn't see any fish or sea turtles... It's winter, so I understand, but it was cold, and since I wore a wetsuit, my swimsuit was inside the suit, and the photos turned out lonely. I wish someone had told me if there were sea turtles (maybe I just didn't ask...). Was it just bad timing!? However, the guides were very kind and even took photos for us. We had fun playing with the floaties. Thank you!
波が高くて、潮の満ち引きにもよると思いますが、サンドバーの水深が深かったです。サンゴ礁の魚がいるところには、波に逆らって泳げる人しかシュノーケルに参加できず、魚もウミガメも見れなかった…
季節が冬だから仕方ないですが、寒くて、ウェットスーツを着たので、水着はスーツの中で、写真もさみしかったです。
ウミガメがいたら、教えて欲しかったです。(私が聞いてなかっただけかもですが…)
タイミングが悪かったのかな!?
でも、ガイドさん達は、すごく親切で写真も撮ってくださいました。浮き輪でも楽しく遊べました。
ありがとうございました!
Aloha! Thank you very much for participating in the Captain Bruce's Paradise of the Sea Tour. We are truly sorry that you were unable to join the snorkeling due to the unfortunate weather, but we are very pleased to hear your compliments about our staff's service. Regardless of natural conditions like the weather, we will continue to make further efforts to ensure your satisfaction with the snorkeling, activities, and meals throughout the tour. We sincerely look forward to welcoming you again on your next visit.
アロハ!この度はキャプテンブルース天国の海ツアーへのご参加誠にありがとうございました。あいにくのお天気でシュノーケリングにもご参加いただけずとても残念でしたが、スタッフの対応をお褒めいただきましたことを心より嬉しく思います。天候などの自然条件に関わらずシュノーケリングやアクティビティ、そしてお食事などでツアー全体を通してにご満足いただけますようさらなる努力を重ねてまいります。またの機会にお越しいただけますことをスタッフ一同心よりお待ち申し上げております。
Don't expect a giant whale to appear right in front of you. We were picked up at the Ko Olina Marriott with about ten others and headed to Waianae Harbor. There were already some participants lined up, probably around 40 to 50 people, and I think we were the only two Japanese. Unfortunately, I could only understand about 80% of the guide's explanations, but I got the gist of it.
We enjoyed a large catamaran yacht cruising at engine speed. Since it was a yacht, we were close to the water, and although the weather was cloudy with occasional sunshine, we had a great time cruising. Once we got offshore, we encountered a small whale that spouted water a few hundred meters away. We saw it several times, and each time there were cheers. I think the sight of a giant tail appearing right in front of us is just a picture from the brochure.
After that, the boat headed to the dolphin area. The dolphins swim in groups and are very curious, coming close to the boat, so we could see them well. However, I had previously participated in a dolphin watching cruise from the same harbor in the summer, and I felt that the dolphins were more energetic and jumping around at that time.
The nearly two-hour cruise included all-you-can-eat rice crackers that looked like persimmon seeds and one drink (including alcohol) for just under $100. I thought it was a bit pricey, but my wife was very impressed. Besides encountering whales and dolphins, she also enjoyed the scenery and the cruising itself.
We were also taken back to the Ko Olina Marriott afterward. Additionally, you have to take off your shoes when boarding, and it's barefoot inside the boat. You just throw your shoes into a container box on the dock, so if you're concerned about that, it might be a good idea to bring a plastic bag or something to carry them inside. We didn't mind since we were wearing flip-flops and sneakers, but my wife found it a bit troublesome to take off her socks.
巨大なクジラが目の前に現れて・・なんて期待してはいけません。
コオリナマリオットで10名ほどピックアップしてもらって、ワイアナエハーバーへ。すでに先客組が並んでいて40~50名ほどの参加者でしょうか、日本人は我々2名だけだったと思います。残念ながらガイドさんの説明は80%は理解できなかったけれど、それなりに分かるものです。
大型のカタマランヨットを機走(エンジンで進む)で楽しみます。ヨットなので海面も近く、参加日は曇り時々晴れでしたがクルージングも楽しめました。沖合に出ると数百メータ先に「プシュッ!」と潮を吹いて泳ぐ小さなクジラに遭遇しました。何度か出くわしますが、そのたびに歓声が上がります。目の前を巨大な尾びれが現れて・・というのはパンフレットの写真だけだと思います。
その後、イルカのエリアにも船は向ってくれました。イルカは群れを成すし好奇心豊かで船にも近づくのでよく見えます。ただ同じハーバーから以前夏にイルカウォッチングクルーズに参加したことがあるのですが、その時のほうがジャンプしたりイルカも元気だったような気がします。
2時間近くのクルーズで、柿の種みたいなあられ(食べ放題?)とワンドリンク(アルコールもあり)で$100弱。ちょっと高いかななんて思ったのですが、カミさんはとても感激。クジラやイルカの遭遇以外にも景色やクルージング自体も楽しかったようです。
帰りもコオリナマリオットまで送ってもらえました。
あと、乗船時に靴を脱ぎ船内は裸足です、脱いだ靴類は桟橋のコンテナボックスに投げ入れるだけなので気になる人はビニール袋等持参して船内に持ち込むのも一考かもしれません。我々はビーサンとスニーカーだったので気にしませんでしたが、カミさんが靴下脱いだり面倒くさがっていました。
3階建てのクルーズでしたが、1階に座るように言われました。しかし、ウェイトレスが空いている席があれば別の階に移動してもいいと言ってくれたので、私たちは移動しました。それが素晴らしかったです。3階では、雲が多い日でしたが、夕日を見ました。それでも楽しめました。この場所を完全にお勧めします :)
It was 3 floor cruise, and we were told to seat on the 1st floor but waitress told us that we can move and go to different floor if the seats are vacant so we did and it was great. At 3rd floor, we saw sunset it was cloudy day but still enjoyed. I totally recommend this place:)
アロハ!ご体験を共有していただきありがとうございます。私たちは、あなたが私たちと過ごした時間を楽しんでいただけたことを嬉しく思います。また近いうちに別のクルーズにご参加いただけることを願っています!マハロ!
Aloha! Thank you for sharing your experience, we’re glad you enjoyed your time with us. We hope you’ll join us for another cruise soon! Mahalo!
This time, I participated with my 6-year-old son, and he decided not to go snorkeling. I thought I would have to skip snorkeling too to stay with him, but the tour staff member kindly said, "Don't worry, I'll look after your son. You and your partner can go ahead!" My son ended up having lunch on the boat and playing around it. I really appreciated that! We also got to experience stand-up paddleboarding, which was incredibly fun. Along the way, a sea turtle even came by and passed right next to my son! It was a great experience.
今回6歳の息子を連れての参加で、息子はシュノーケリングを断念。私も息子に付き合ってシュノーケリングは出来ないかと思いきや、ツアースタッフのお兄さんが息子を見ていてあげるからパパさんママさん行ってきて良いよ!と送り出してくれました。息子は船上でランチしたり、船の周りで遊んで貰ったりしていたそうです。本当に有難い!アクティビティではSUPも体験でき、最高に楽しかったです。途中、ウミガメもやって来て息子の真横を通過!良い体験でした。
Aloha! This is the Captain Bruce's Paradise Ocean Tour. Thank you very much for participating this time. We have many staff members who love children and some who have kids themselves, so I hope your child had a great time on the boat. It was great to see the turtles too!! All of our staff are sincerely looking forward to your next visit.
アロハ!キャプテンブルース天国の海ツアーです。この度はご参加いただき誠にありがとうございました。子供好きなスタッフや実際に子供がいるスタッフも多いので、お子さんも船の上で楽しく過ごして頂けたのではないでしょうか。カメさんにも会えて良かった!!またのお越しをスタッフ一同心よりお待ち申し上げております。
I was excited when I saw the map, wondering if I could explore everything, but when I got there, it was surprisingly small, and I completed a lap in no time. The staff were all friendly, but it felt a bit sparse, as one person was watching multiple slides, and the food area called a café was completely closed. I appreciated the water and fruit service at the cabana. Since it was a tour, I had to stay until after 3 PM when the pickup came, which felt like a waste of time when there was nothing to do. I think it would be better to have a rental car next time so I could leave whenever I wanted.
地図で見た時は全部回れるかな〜?とワクワクしてましたが、行ってみると意外と狭くて、あっという間に一周しちゃいました。
スタッフは皆さん愛想のいい方ばかりでしたが、人手不足なのか、一人で複数の滑り台を見ていたり、カフェと名がつくフードエリアが全て閉まっていたり…閑散としている感じがしました。
カバナのお水とフルーツサービスは嬉しかったです。
ツアーなので迎えが来る3時過ぎまでやることないのにいなきゃいけないのは時間の無駄でした。次回行くとしてもレンタカーなどで好きな時に帰れた方がいいなと思いました。
This activity is AMAZING! My children who were 12 and 9 at the time, had such a good time learning about the different cultures. It was almost set up like a theme park where there were various places and activities to be apart of. The grounds are breathtakingly beautiful. There's so much to see and do, you will literally spend ALL DAY there!
The sandbar on the day we participated had water up to our thighs, which was a bit disappointing! I think it would be good to check a site that provides tide information before making a reservation.
The hamburgers we had on the boat were surprisingly delicious!! Although there was a bit of murkiness in the water for snorkeling due to rain the day before, there were many sea turtles nearby, and we were able to swim with them. It was so much fun!
参加した日のサンドバーは太ももあたりまで水が上がっていて少し残念でした!潮位を調べられるサイトがあるみたいなので予約する前に参考にした方がいいと思います。
船上で食べるハンバーガーはびっくりするぐらい美味しかったです!!シュノーケリングも前日に雨が降ったため少し濁りはありましたがウミガメが近くに沢山いて一緒に泳ぐことができました。すごく楽しかったです!
The weather was a bit unpredictable with rain coming and going, but the conditions on the day turned out to be quite good. The contrast of the rainbow with the planes taking off from Honolulu Airport and the view of Diamond Head and the streets of Waikiki from the sea was very uplifting. The open sea had surprisingly high waves, and everything from my clothes to my belongings got soaked, but the pleasant climate made it feel like being sprayed with water at Disneyland. Unfortunately, we didn't see any whales, but we received a pass to ride again for free within the season, so I felt quite satisfied. A couple in their 50s who could only speak basic English like "Thank you" somehow joined a tour that only had an English-speaking guide (there were about 20 participants, and only one other Japanese group besides us), but even without understanding the language, we had a pretty good time. Just keep in mind that there are no life jackets, so any activities outside the boat are at your own risk.
雨が降ったり止んだりで天候に気を揉みましたが、当日の天気はまずまずのコンディションでした。虹とホノルル空港から離陸した飛行機のコントラスト、海上から見るダイヤモンドヘッドやワイキキの街並みは、とっても気分を高揚させます。外海は意外に波が高く、服から何から‘べしょべしょ‘に濡れましたが気候も良いので、言ってみればディズニーランドで放水を浴びているようなものですね。鯨は残念ながら見れなかったけど、シーズン内ならもう一度無料で乗れるパスも貰えるし、満足感は十分ありました。「Thank you」ぐらいの英語しか喋れない50代夫婦が何を血迷ったか英語ガイドしかいないツアーに参加しましたが(20組ぐらいの参加者のうち日本人グループは我々ともう一組だけでした)、言葉はわからないなりに結構楽しめますよ。ただ救命胴着はありませんので船外の行動は自己責任となります。
Prompt service to and from the pick up site! Driver even called to confirm I was present. Wow! Great host and service. Thank you for your time and insight in the journey!
It was a show that far exceeded my expectations.
The singing and dancing of each individual were amazing!
The level was very high, and it was truly impressive.
I'm glad I went to Hawaii and saw this show.
Elvis's singing and Michael's dancing were captivating.
The content was never boring!
I believe it will definitely be one of the memories of my trip to Hawaii.
予想をはるかに超えるショーでした。
1人1人の歌唱力とダンス!
すばらしい!
とてもレベルが高く、見ごたえがあります。
ハワイに行き、見てよかったと思えるショーです。
エルビスの歌唱力、マイケルのダンス。
飽きさせない内容!
間違いなくハワイ旅行の思い出の1つとなると思います。

I saw it from the very front!!!
I had a towel draped around my neck. It was just draped (laughs).
It was a bit too close, so there were some parts I couldn't see well, but it was fun.
一番前で見ました!!!
タオルを首から掛けられました。かけられただけ(笑)
近すぎて少し見えないところがありましたが、楽しかったです。

I was a bit disappointed that several attractions I wanted to ride were closed. Since I visited on a weekday, there were few people in the facility and the wait times were short, allowing me to ride the slides multiple times. Most of the visitors were tourists, with a majority being Japanese. The only attraction with a long wait time was the FlowRider. There are deck chairs by the central wave pool, but the shaded areas fill up quickly, so I recommend securing a spot as soon as you enter the park.
乗りたかったアトラクションが何個か開いていなかったので少しがっかりでした。
行ったのが平日だということもあり、施設自体は人も少なく待ち時間も少ないのでスライダーに何度も乗ることができた。
来場者は殆どが観光客で日本人が大半です。
唯一待ち時間が長かったのはフローライダーくらいでした。
中央の波が出るプールにデッキチェアがあるが屋根付きで無料の所はすぐ埋まる為、入園後すぐに場所取りしに行く事をおすすめします。
The weather was gloomy all day. The staff spoke to us in Japanese, so I was able to participate without any anxiety. Everyone was kind and taught us well.
It was cold, and I was hesitant to get into the sea. I even thought about skipping snorkeling.
But since I came all this way, I wanted to see the sea turtles!
I bravely went into the water.
As soon as I got in, I saw so many sea turtles!
For lunch, we had freshly made BBQ. It was delightful! The taste was really delicious.
一日どんよりした天気((+_+))
スタッフの方々は日本語で話してくれて不安なく参加できました(^^)/
皆さん優しく教えてくれました(#^^#)
寒くて海に入るのも恐々。。
シュノーケリングもやめようか、と。。
でもせっかく来たのだからウミガメに会いたい!
思い切って海へ。。
入ってすぐ、いっぱいウミガメに会えました♡
ランチも出来立てほやほやのBBQ。堪能しました!
味も本当に美味しかったです♡
Aloha! This is Captain Bruce's Paradise Ocean Tour. Thank you very much for joining us this time. The weather has been rough this week, hasn't it? But I'm glad you decided to get into the water! I hope you were able to relax and enjoy the turtles resting in the coral reefs and the many fish. We all sincerely look forward to your next visit.
アロハ!キャプテンブルース天国の海ツアーです。この度はご参加いただき誠にありがとうございました。今週は天気が荒れていましたよね。でも思い切って海に入ってもらって良かったです!サンゴ礁の影で休んでいるカメさんや、たくさんの魚達はに心を癒されたのではないでしょうか!?またのお越しをスタッフ一同心よりお待ち申し上げております。
I took my parents to Hawaii! I wanted to show them hula dancing and fire dancing, so after researching various options, I found this tour had the best reviews and made a reservation. The hula dancing and fire dancing were amazing, but there were also many impersonators of stars from the past, like Michael Jackson, which made my parents very happy! The satisfaction exceeded my expectations! Additionally, we were seated in the front row of the second floor, and the stage was at eye level, making it very easy to see! If you sit on the first floor, you have to look up. Also, since you'll be viewing from the side, I think it could get tiring.
両親を連れてハワイに行きました!
フラダンスやファイヤーダンスを見せたいなと思いいろいろ調べたところ、こちらのツアーが一番口コミが良かったので予約させていただきました。
フラダンスやファイヤーダンスも素晴らしかったですが、マイケルジャクソンなどのひと昔前のスターのそっくりさんがたくさん出てきて、両親はとても喜んでいました!!
想像以上の満足感でした!
また、2階席の一番前で見れましたが目線の高さにステージがあり、とても見やすかったです!
1階だと見上げる感じになります。
また、横向きにで見るようになるので疲れると思います。
Thank you very much for visiting us. We are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed your time here. We sincerely look forward to welcoming you back when you come to Hawaii again.

I had plans in the morning and was looking for a tour in the afternoon when I found and booked this one. The guides spoke Japanese and were all friendly. The meal was a simple buffet, but with a 360-degree oceanfront view from the boat. The taste may vary depending on personal preference, but it was a luxurious lunch.
While snorkeling, I saw several sea turtles on the ocean floor, and I could see them up close! However, it can be cold in late December if it's not sunny! It's a good idea to have a warm rash guard, bath towel, and a change of T-shirt that you can wear on the boat.
I enjoyed the stand-up paddleboarding (SUP) without any additional charge, but due to safety concerns, the area where we could paddle was quite limited. Standing and paddling would end quickly, and we kept having to turn around and repeat that.
One disappointing thing was that one of the guides threw the leftover juice he was drinking into the sea. I was disheartened to see a guide, who is supposed to protect the beautiful Kaneohe Bay surrounded by coral reefs, throwing juice into the clean ocean.
午前中に予定があり、午後からのツアーを探していたところこちらのツアーを見つけて予約。
ガイドさんたちは、日本語が話せて、みんなフレンドリー。
食事は、簡単なビュッフェでしたが、船の上だと360度オーシャンフロント。味は好みもあるかと思いますが、贅沢なランチでした。
シュノーケルをしていると、海の底にウミガメが何匹もいて、間近で見る事ができます!
しかし、12月下旬の晴れていないと寒いです!
必ず船の上で着られる温かいラッシュガードやバスタオル、替えのTシャツとかがあるといいですよ。
SUPが追加料金無く実施出来て楽しめましたが、安全上の問題で、SUPの出来る範囲がかなり狭く立って漕ぐとすぐに終わり。また、Uターンし、立って漕ぐと終わり。の繰り返し…でした。
残念だった事は、ガイドさんの1人が飲んでいたジュースの残りを海に捨てていた事です。
珊瑚礁に守られた美しいカネオヘ湾を守るガイドさんが、綺麗な海にジュースを捨てるなんてガッカリしました。
