Oahu
The day after the hurricane, the weather was not great, but there were various slides and attractions, and it was very fun. The day flew by in no time.
It takes about an hour by bus, so don't forget to bring something to wear in the air-conditioned bus!
ハリケーン通過翌日で、お天気はイマイチでしたが、いろんなスライダーやアトラクションがあり、とてもおもしろかったです。1日があっという間に過ぎました。
バスで1時間ほどかかるので、エアコンの利いたバスの中で羽織るものをお忘れなく!
Rock and hula. I couldn't imagine what kind of show it would be as I checked in. I was guided to a tent next to the reception where they offered a welcome drink, and I was asked if I wanted a Mai Tai cocktail or a non-alcoholic version. During and before the meal, dancers from the main show entertained us with singing and dancing. The food was delicious, and the whole roasted pig was exquisite. You can order drink refills from your seat and pay on the spot. The show itself was of high quality, allowing you to enjoy hula, rock, Polynesian, and pop music. I think it's a show you definitely should see.
ロックとフラ。どんなショーになるのか想像もつかないまま受付。
受付横のテントに案内されてウェルカムドリンクのマイタイはカクテルとノンアルコールを聞いてくれる。食事の前や食事中も、本編に出演しているダンサーが歌や躍りで盛り上げてくれる。食事も美味しく、豚の丸焼きは絶品でした。ドリンクのおかわりは座席で注文し、その場で支払いです。
ショーも完成度が高く、フラ、ロック、ポリネシアン、ポップスすべて堪能できます。是非見てほしいショーだと思います。
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.
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。
What a great night to finish off our trip to Waikiki, the show was very entertaining showcasing various cultures from the South Pacific and the food was great, a good mix of traditional and exotic, compere for the evening was excellent.
From pick up to drop off we had a fantastic day out, disappointed that the Arizona memorial was closed due to the damaged supports however we did get to view it from the boat that takes you out, our driver Marlon was very knowledgeable about honolulu and surrounding area, we had time to visit downtown including the Iolani palace, 5 o headquarters and chinatown, I would have no hesitation in recommending this tour and would do it again.
We participated as a couple.
The instructions were in English, but they explained everything in a way we could understand, and we enjoyed ourselves throughout.
After moving to the sea turtle point, we had plenty of fun snorkeling, and after getting out of the water, we went sailing towards Diamond Head. We were super excited to see sea turtles for the first time while sailing.
Even though we weren't far from the beach, there were a lot of sea turtles.
We were able to take pictures with the GoPro we brought.
The sailing was faster than we expected and felt really good; I'm so glad we participated.
(It was mentioned that fins would incur a fee, but it turns out there was no charge. In fact, I think without fins, unless you're very confident in your swimming, you would likely be swept away.)
夫婦で参加しました。
英語のみの案内でしたが、こちらが分かるように説明して下さり、終始楽しめました。
海亀のポイントまで移動してからたっぷりシュノーケリングを楽しみ、海から上がってからはダイヤモンドヘッドの方までセーリング。初めての海亀にセーリングに大興奮。
ビーチからそんなに離れていないのに、海亀もたくさんいました。
持参したgoproで撮影もできました。
セーリングは思った以上にスピードがありとても気持ち良く、参加出来て本当に良かったです。
(フィンは有料と記載がありましたが、お金はかからないそうです。
むしろフィンがないと余程泳ぎに自信がない限り、流されてしまうと思います。)
We were lucky to have good weather. The water level was up to my waist, but I was able to walk.
Snorkeling was fun too. (Even though there was a sea turtle right there, for some reason I couldn't see it...) The staff were polite and kind. If there are many people, you might be split into two groups, so there's a chance you could end up in the group that has lunch just before snorkeling. I think those who are sensitive to the boat and waves should be careful. I held back on what I wanted to eat and only had a little, haha.
The photo was taken while the smartphone was still in a zippered bag I bought at a Japanese Daiso. It turned out okay.
運良く天候に恵まれました。
腰まで水位がある状態でしたが、歩くことができました。
シュノーケルも楽しかったです。
(せっかく海ガメがすぐそこにいたのに、なぜか私は見れず…。)
スタッフの方も丁寧で親切でした。
人数が多いと、二手に分かれるため、シュノーケルの直前にご飯になるグループに当たる可能性があります。船や波の揺れに弱い方は要注意だと思います。私は食べたいところをぐっと抑えて少量にしました笑。
写真は日本のダイ◯ーで買ったスマホ用ジッパー付き袋に入れたままで撮ったものです。それなりに撮れました。
Aloha! Thank you for joining the Captain Bruce's Paradise Ocean Tour. Your photos turned out beautifully. Next time, please consider trying out GoPro filming as well.
アロハ!キャプテンブルース天国の海ツアーご参加ありがとうございました。
とっても綺麗にお写真取れてますね。次回はぜひGoPro撮影もチャレンジされてみてくださいね。
Loved it. Luau Buffett Dinner excellent. Cast members made it so much fun. Cocktails spot on.
Really enjoyed the Show - will be recommending to my friends
Very good trip, would recommend. A little touristy, but that will be what most people want. Driver very good.
I thought a pool in Hawaii was unnecessary, but the slide is really fun. It's a bit disappointing that it closes early. Time flies so quickly that I wish I could play more, and it's a place I want to visit every time I go to Hawaii.
ハワイでプールなんてと思いましたが、スライダーがとても面白い。閉園が少し早いのが残念です。もっと遊んでいたいと思うほど時間のたつのが早くハワイにいくたびに訪れたいところです。
I was satisfied with the cruise.
However, it was disappointing that there was no place to change.
The girls changed outside and seemed anxious about being seen.
The boys didn't mind and just got on the bus as they were. It was too cold because the air conditioning was too strong.
クルーズも出来て満足でした。
ただ、残念なのは着替え場所がない事。
女子は外で着替えましたが、、見られてるかどうかと不安そうでした、、。
男子は気にしないのでそのままバスに乗り込み。冷房が効きすぎで、寒かったです、、
I participated on August 23 when a typhoon was approaching Oahu. I woke up several times during the night, thinking I might receive an email saying the event would be canceled. However, it was confirmed that the event would go ahead, and I decided to participate, knowing that if I canceled on the day, the nearly 90,000 yen for seven people would not be refunded.
Since the sun wasn't out, the sea wasn't beautiful, and both the water and air temperatures were low, everyone was feeling cold. I also participated in snorkeling, but due to the typhoon's effects, I felt scared as I was almost swept away.
After returning, I contacted a company that specializes in sandbar cruises, and they informed me that the Public Safety Bureau had issued a warning, stating that boats should not go out. They mentioned that other companies likely weren't operating either. They said that just rain wouldn't lead to cancellations, but since a hurricane was approaching, that was the reason for the cancellation. I wonder if it was really a good decision to go ahead with the event.
Given the circumstances, I'm relieved that nothing happened. By the way, I heard that those who canceled on the day received a full refund. I regret participating just to avoid losing the 90,000 yen.
オアフに台風が近づいている8月23日に参加しました。中止に当然なるのではとメールが来るかもしれないと何度も夜中に目が覚めました。しかしながら催行するとのこと、7人分の9万近いお金が当日こちらがキャンセルすれば返ってこないと参加しました。
太陽が出ていないので海も綺麗でなく、水温も気温も低くて皆さん寒がっていました。シュノーケリングにも参加しましたが、台風の影響で流されそうになり怖い思いをしました。
帰ってからサンドバー専門のクルーザーの会社に問い合わせたところ、公安局から危険と指示があったので船は出てはいけないということで他の催行会社も全て出ていないだろう、ただの雨ではキャンセルにならないけどハリケーンが近づいていたからいう回答を得ました。催行して良かったのでしょうか。
そんな中でしたので何事もなくてよかったと思います。ちなみに当日キャンセルの方には全額返金したそうです。9万を惜しんで参加しなければ良かったです。
Heavenly Ocean was amazing! It was my first time participating on my 10th trip to Hawaii! I always thought about going, but I hesitated because it seemed boring if the sandbar wasn't out. Finally, I decided to give it a try! I wish I had gone from the start! In the end, the sandbar wasn't out, but the ocean was incredibly beautiful, something I had never seen before... it was wonderful.
To get to Heavenly Ocean, we drove about an hour from Waikiki along mountain roads. Since I tend to get motion sickness in cars and boats, I took some anti-nausea medication before going, so I was totally fine. After that, we boarded the boat to Heavenly Ocean... Within 30 minutes, we could see the sandbar, and there was clearly a different zone with a distinct color and feel to the water!
At Heavenly Ocean, there was about waist-deep water, possibly due to the hurricane that had come the day before, but it was incredibly beautiful and enjoyable! We practiced snorkeling, played beach volleyball, and had fun with a diverse group of people. Couples were taught how to take lovely photos, and they took many beautiful pictures. We were just so impressed by the stunning ocean!
I've been to various oceans before, but I truly felt that it lived up to its name, Heavenly Ocean! While we were playing, the crew grilled meat on a barbecue. I had some concerns about the quality of the meat since it was labeled BBQ, but what we got was a hamburger! We made our own sandwiches with the meat, cheese, and vegetables... there were also beans and chips, and it was delicious.
After that, we went to a spot where we could see turtles. It was very close by, and the sea turtles popped their heads up! Then, we went snorkeling around the coral reef!!! There were colorful fish all around the coral. I was able to see even more colorful fish than when I went diving in Hawaii, and since it was snorkeling, it was easy to participate, which was great!
The Japanese guide was very friendly and kind to everyone, which was really nice!
Actually, I had booked this tour on the day of the hurricane, and it was scheduled to go until the last minute, but at the last moment, it was canceled, and they helped me rebook. Since it's an American company, I guess there are cancellation fees and various things to consider? I think it's better to hold out until the last minute. I learned that the cancellation was due to the rough sea around the coral reef, which made it impossible to see anything! This means it might have been possible to go, so if there are cancellation fees, it might be worth waiting until the last minute. They said that if it was really impossible, they would contact me to cancel and refund my money.
In any case, I was very satisfied to have participated for the first time! I will definitely join again the next time I come to Hawaii!
天国の海最高でした!10回目のハワイ旅行にして初参加でした!
いつも行ってみたいと思いながら、サンドバーが出てないとつまらなそうと、やめていたけど、ついに行ってみることにしました!
最初から行けば良かった!って思いました!
結果的にサンドバーは出てなかったけど、海が初めて見る綺麗さで、、、素晴らしかったです。
天国の海までは、ワイキキから車で1時間くらい山道を走りました。私は元々車や船に酔いやすいので、酔い止めを飲んで行きました。なので全然平気でした。その後、船に乗って天国の海へ、、、。
船は30分も乗らないうちにサンドバーが見えてきて、そこだけあきらかに色も海の感じも違うゾーンが現れました!
天国の海では、前日にハリケーンが来ていた影響もあったのか、腰くらいまで水がありましたが、めっちゃくちゃ綺麗で楽しめました!
次に待っているシュノーケルの練習をしたり、ビーチバレーをしたり、国際色豊かなメンバーで楽しんだり、カップルはステキな写真の撮り方を教えてもらって、綺麗な写真を沢山撮ってました。
私たちは綺麗な海にひたすら感激!
今まで色んな海に行って来ましたが、やはり天国の海というだけあると実感!
そして、天国の海で私たちが遊んでいる間にクルーがバーベキューグリルでお肉を焼いてくれました。
BBQと書いてあったので、お肉の美味しくないのだったらやだなぁなんて内心思ってたのですが、出来上がったのは、ハンバーガー!
自分でパンにお肉とチーズと野菜を挟んで、、、ビーンズとチップスもあって、美味しくいただきました。
その後は、亀が見えるスポットへ。すぐ近くにあって、ウミガメさんがひょこひょこ顔を出してくれました。
そして、サンゴ礁の周りをシュノーケリング !!!
サンゴ礁の周りに色とりどりの魚がいました。
ダイビングでハワイの海に潜った時よりも色とりどりの魚が沢山見ることができて、シュノーケルだったので、簡単に参加できて良かったです!
案内の日本人の方もすごくフレンドリーで誰に対しても優しく、とっても良かったです!
実は、このツアーハリケーンの日に予約していて、ギリギリまで催行予定だったのですが、ギリギリにNGが出て、予約を取り直してもらいました。アメリカの会社なので、キャンセル料とか色々あるんでしょうね?ギリギリまで粘った方がいいかと思います。NGになったのは、サンゴ礁のところが海が荒れて何も見えなくなったからとツアーに参加して教えてもらいました!ということは、出来なくもなかったということかと思いますので、キャンセル料がかかるときはギリギリまで粘っていいかと思います。本当に無理だとキャンセルの連絡が来て、お金も返金してくれるとのことでしたから。
いずれにしても、初参加出来て大満足です!
また、次回ハワイに来るときはまた参加させていただきます!
I enjoyed all the attractions! I played for the entire time and felt satisfied! The food was below my expectations. There were only a few options like fruit, salad, potatoes, meat, and something that resembled yakisoba. It was quite limited. I was a bit disappointed to see dead bugs and dead leaves floating in the pool water. The park itself felt a bit run down, but I had fun, so it was okay.
アトラクションはどれも楽しめました!
時間いっぱい遊んで、満足です!
ごはんは想像はしていましたが、それ以下でした。フルーツ、サラダ、ポテト、肉、焼きそば?みたいな物しかなく、種類は、少ないです。
プールの水の中に虫の死骸や枯葉が沢山浮かんでて気持ち悪かったのが少し残念です。
パーク自体は廃れた感じがありましたが、楽しめたのでよかったです
Despite the heavy rain and calm sea without wind, we proceeded with the tour as planned. We arrived at the sandbar! Although it was cold and we were shivering, we decided to get into the water, but we couldn't stay in for more than five minutes before getting back on the boat. We ended up eating sandwiches in the leaking cabin. Some people went snorkeling, but they said it was too murky to see anything. Well, that makes sense! It was pointless to even go in.
When we finally thought we could go home, the pickup bus didn't arrive, and we had to wait for an hour in an empty parking lot. It was cold, but at least it didn't rain while we were waiting for the bus, which was a small relief.
In summary, while bad weather might be a matter of luck, I thought it was terrible that the tour continued just for the sake of money despite the conditions. Also, the waiting time for the bus felt like pure torture.
If I go again, I hope it will be when there isn't a hurricane!
大雨の中風がなく海は穏やかなので〜と言うことでそのままツアーします
との事でサンドバーまで行き到着!
雨と寒さでブルブル震えるなかせっかくなので
海に入りましたが5分と入ってられず船にあがり、雨漏りする船内でサンドイッチを食べました。シュノーケリングに出かけた方もいましたが濁っていて何も見えないと
そりゃ〜そうでしょう‼︎ 入るだけ無駄ですよ
無事に戻りやっと帰れると思ったら
迎えのバスが来ない、何もない駐車場に1時間も待たされました
寒かったけどバスの待ちは雨が降らなかった事が救いでした
感想 天候が悪いのは運なのかもしれませんが こんな状態でお金のためだけにツアーを中止にせず行うのは酷いなぁと思いました
また、バスの待ち時間は地獄そのものでした
次回もし行くならハリケーンが来ていない時にしたいものです
In April, I participated with my mother. The participants varied widely, including newlywed couples, families with small children, elderly couples, and adult groups.
In the morning, we were picked up next to DFS. We were staying very close to the Sheraton, but it was unfortunate that the Sheraton bus stop could not pick up non-guests.
On the day of the tour, it was sunny to slightly rainy in Waikiki, but it was pouring rain and gray skies at the location. Therefore, we couldn't see the beautiful scenery like in the pictures at all. However, I thought the tour itself was packed with activities.
1. Everyone walked to the sandbar.
2. Snorkeling was available for those who wanted to participate (snorkel sets and floatation devices were provided for free).
3. Lunch (those who didn't go snorkeling ate first, but the portion was sufficient).
4. Motorboat and SUP were available for those who wanted to try (free).
It's really regrettable about the bad weather. Even in poor weather, we were able to see turtles while snorkeling, and there were reasonably clear waters and colorful fish to enjoy. It was a rocky area where you couldn't touch the bottom, but we could borrow floatation devices, and there were quite a few fish. The lunch was quite varied for being on a boat, and the bone-in meat was particularly delicious.
The staff were kind and entertaining, but there were many items for sale that they recommended, so be cautious. On the other hand, you can buy quite a few things on the boat. If necessary, I recommend bringing marine shoes, rash guards, and an underwater camera (waterproof cover for smartphones) in advance. It's either barefoot or marine shoes on the boat.
The satisfaction level of the tour seems to depend a lot on the weather. Even with the pouring rain, I was somewhat satisfied with the price, so I can imagine I would have been very satisfied if it had been sunny. However, someone who participated on the same day mentioned it was their third time joining, and it had rained every time (laughs).
4月に母と二人で参加。新婚旅行風カップル、小さい子連れファミリー、老年夫婦、大人グループなど参加者層は幅広かったです。
朝はDFS横でピックアップ。シェラトンすぐ近くに宿泊でしたが、シェラトンバス停は宿泊者以外のピックアップができなかったのが残念。
当日はワイキキは晴~小雨。現地はザーザー降り&灰色空。よって、写真みたいな景色は全然見れませんでした。。
でも、ツアー自体は盛りだくさんで良かったと思います。
1、全員で歩いてサンドバー
2、希望者のみシュノーケリング(シュノーケルセット・浮具貸出無料)
3、ランチ(シュノーケル行かなかった人が先に食べてるけど量は十分)
4、希望者のみ、モーターボート・SUP(無料)
ほんとに悪天候が悔やまれます。
悪天候でもシュノーケル中はカメが見れたり、それなりに透明な海やそれなりにカラフルな魚が見れたりして楽しめました。足が付かない岩場でしたが浮具も借りれたし、魚の数も結構いました。ランチも船内にしては種類豊富で、特に骨付き肉が美味しかったです。
スタッフさんは親切で面白いけど、勧められる販売品も多いので注意かな。逆に結構色々船内でも買えます。必要ならば、あらかじめマリンシューズ・ラッシュガード・水中カメラ(スマホ防水カバー)などを持っていくのがおすすめ。船内は裸足かマリンシューズです。
天候でかなり満足度が変わりそうなツアー。ザーザーでもこの値段でもまあ満足なので、晴れてたら大満足なんだろうな。ただ、同じ日に参加した人は3度目の参加だそうで、全部雨だとか(笑)
Aloha! Thank you for participating in the tour and for the detailed report. The weather... is just part of outdoor tours... We look forward to your revenge participation, Miko!
アロハ!ツアーご参加&詳細なレポートありがとうございます。
お天気。。。だけは屋外のツアーにつきものでして。。。。
みーこ様のリベンジ参加お待ちしております!!
We participated during our honeymoon. Initially, I wanted to see a fire dance and did some research, but there weren't any interesting options close to our hotel (Royal Hawaiian), so we booked this show, which seemed to have a lot of content beyond just the fire dance.
I'm in my 30s and don't know much about Elvis or American songs from before that era. However, I think the show is enjoyable even if you don't know the songs. The overwhelming vocal talent and powerful dancing are definitely highlights.
We chose a dinner plan, but I felt that the time between the end of dinner and the start of the show was a bit long. The meal was satisfactory. If I go again, I think I would prefer just the show with one drink included.
新婚旅行中に参加しました。
当初はファイヤーダンスが見たいと思い、色々調べていたのですが、自分たちのホテル(ロイヤルハワイアン)から近いところで興味を引く催行が無く、ファイヤーダンス以外も盛りだくさんの内容で楽しめそうなこのショーを予約しました。
当方30代でエルビスやそれより前のアメリカの曲はあまり知りません。ですが、わからなくても楽しめる内容になっていると思います。
圧倒的な歌唱力とパワフルなダンスが見ものです。
ディナー付きのプランを選択しましたが、ディナー終了からショーまでの時間が少し長いかなと感じました。食事は及第点。
次回行くのならばワンドリンク付きのショーのみでイイかなと思いました。
Thank you very much for visiting us this time. We sincerely look forward to welcoming you again when you come to Hawaii.
この度はご来場頂きまして、誠に有難うございます。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。
Due to the impact of the hurricane, the sea was murky and not the beautiful water it usually is, which was disappointing. However, I had a great time with the staff and enjoyed myself. If I have the opportunity, I would like to participate again.
ハリケーンの影響で海が濁り、本来の綺麗な海ではなかったので、残念でしたが、スタッフの方と楽しく過ごせて、楽しかったです。又機会があれば、再度参加したいと思います。
The timing of the tides didn't align, so the sandbar didn't appear, and we were left with shallow waters about waist-deep.
During the sea turtle watching, we were able to spot over ten turtles, which was a lot of fun!
The staff were bright and kind.
The area around the sandbar tends to get more rain and the temperatures are lower compared to Waikiki, so it felt a bit chilly.
I'm glad I went, but since we were at the edge of the sandbar, next time I would like to choose a tour company that can take us to the central area.
潮の満ち引きのタイミングが合わず、サンドバーは出現せず、腰の高さくらいの浅瀬でした。
ウミガメウォッチングでは、10匹以上見つけることができて楽しかったです♪
スタッフの皆さんは、明るく優しい方達でした♪
サンドバー周辺の地域は雨が降りやすく気温もワイキキに比べると低めなので、少し肌寒い印象でした。
行って良かったですが、サンドバーの端っこのエリアだったので、次回は中心のエリアに行ける催行会社を選んでみたいと思います☆
Due to the storm approaching the Hawaiian Islands from the previous day, the event was held indoors, and I didn't feel much benefit from the diamond seating arrangement. The meals were served buffet-style, and while there was some priority, it was mostly free seating. Additionally, there were very long lines, with a gap of over 30 minutes between the front and the back, so there's room for improvement there. As for the food, I thought it was just okay. However, the show itself was highly entertaining and very enjoyable.
前日からのストームがハワイ諸島接近で雨風強く室内での開催となり席の配置がダイヤモンドでも余りメリットを感じなかった、また食事はビッフェ式だが一応優先はあったがほぼ自由となり、また非常に長い列が発生し軽く30分以上は先頭と最後尾には差があったのでそこは改善余地あり、食事内容はまあこんなもんかなぁと思う内容だった。しかしショー自体はエンターテイメントが高く見応え充分でした。
The pier is near to the sandbar, it won't take too much time to sailing to there. With clean water and beautiful sandbar scenic, we had a very great time there! During lunch time, with awesome hawaii burger, and enjoy the music singing by the crew, it's the biggest pleasure. Seeing so many green sea turtles is an unforgettable experience, snorkeling around the reef also fun.
Over all was a great experience and great day just a little cramped on helicopter for a 6fter was the only complaint. All operators were informative and friendly .
On our last day of vacation, we took the morning cruise. It was amazing! Woody and Zach are great! It was so relaxing ... And those views! Just gorgeous! We had the added bonus of seeing sea turtles and dolphins ... And Woody drew closer and cut the engine so we could watch them for a while. If we had found this cruise sooner we would definitely have taken it more than once.
This tour is more of a picnic on a boat off the coast of Oahu rather than a dolphin-watching tour, so in that sense, it offers entertainment and could be enjoyable for those who are not used to being on the water. If you go in with the mindset that seeing dolphins would be a lucky bonus, you won't be disappointed. It was completely different from the dolphin tours on the Big Island. The staff followed the company's concept of providing entertainment, but at times their individuality came through, which I found a bit immature.
イルカを見るツアーというよりはオアフ島沖を船でピクニックするツアーで、そういう意味ではエンターテイメントもあり海に慣れていない人にとっては楽しいのではないでしょうか。
イルカは見れたらラッキーくらいのつもりでないとがっかりします。
ハワイ島のイルカツアーとは全く別物でした。
スタッフは楽しませようという会社のコンセプトにのっとってそれなりに業務されていましたが所々に個が出ていて幼稚だなぁと思いました。
Thank you for your valuable feedback. I will share your comments with the staff. Additionally, on the west side of Oahu, the encounter rate with dolphins is about 95%, but the situation with the dolphins varies daily. They may swim away quickly or play around for a long time, which can affect the time available for swimming. Since we are dealing with wild dolphins, I appreciate your understanding.
貴重な書き込みありがとうございます。こちらの書き込みはスタッフとシェアさせていただきます。また、オアフ島ウエストサイドでは、イルカの遭遇率は95%ほどですが、毎日イルカの状況が違います。早く泳ぎ去ってしまうこともありますし、長い間回遊して遊んでいることもあり、泳げる時間に差が出てしまいますが、野生のイルカが相手なので、ご理解いただけると幸いです。
Amazing experience. Everyone was supper nice and the entertainment was amazing as well
There is a bag check at the entrance. All drinks, including plastic bottles and snacks, are confiscated at the entrance. It seems like they want to make you buy food and drinks inside the facility, as the bag check is very thorough.
There are large and small coin lockers, but even the large ones were completely full with just two people's belongings (change of clothes, towels, etc.).
Regarding the pool, the lazy river and several attractions were not operational, which was a bit disappointing. However, we still had a lot of fun with the attractions that were running.
The BBQ lunch was extremely disappointing, as many others have mentioned. I went in without high expectations after reading reviews, but it was still disappointing. The all-you-can-drink soft drinks only included juice, with no tea or other options. Additionally, drinks were only available at the shop located in the middle of the facility.
If I have the chance to go again, I think I would only purchase the admission ticket.
入り口で持ち物チェックがあります。
ペットボトル等のドリンク、お菓子などは全て入り口で没収。施設内で飲み物や食べ物を買わせるという魂胆でしょうか、持ち物チェックはとても徹底しています。
コインロッカーは、大と小がありましたが、大でも2人分の荷物(着替え、タオル等)だけでいっぱいいっぱいでした。
プールに関しては、流れるプール、アトラクションも何種類か動いておらずちょっとガッカリ。
でも、動いているアトラクションだけでも十分楽しめました。
ランチのBBQは、皆さんが載せている通りガッカリ度がハンパないです。
口コミを見ていたので、そこまでの期待はせずに行きましたが、それでもガッカリしました。
ソフトドリンク飲み放題もお茶などはなく、ジュースのみ。そして飲み物は、施設真ん中あたりにある売店にしか置いていません。
もし今度行く機会があったら、100%入場券のみで行くと思います。
I was really excited to see several sea turtles during the sea turtle watching until we reached the sandbar, but the sandbar was deeper than I expected, so I couldn't sit down to take photos. (I had to give up on sitting my child down with the beautiful scenery in the background...) I think it's better to check the tide schedule in advance. However, both the sea and the sandbar were very beautiful, and I was satisfied!! Please be careful after coming out of the water, as it can get cold.
砂洲に着くまでの海亀ウォッチでは何匹も見れて中々興奮しましたが、砂洲が思っていたよりも深く座って写真撮影はできませんでした。(子供を座らして絶景をバックに…は断念しました)
事前に潮の満ち引きを調べて行った方がいいと思います。
でも海も砂洲もとても綺麗で満足しました!!
海からあがった後は寒いので気をつけて下さい。
The weather was a bit cloudy, but the sandbar was still very beautiful. It was fun to see several sea turtles. It was disappointing that I could hardly see any fish while snorkeling, possibly because it was after the hurricane.
天気は少し曇りでしたが、それでもサンドバーはとてもキレイでした。
ウミガメも何頭も見れて楽しかったです。
ハリケーン後だったからかシュノーケルでお魚が殆ど見れなかったのが残念でした。
Wonderful evening on the Star of Honolulu! Entertainment & music was fantastic! A huge thank you to all the entertainers, staff, musicians, crew & captain of the ship! Our wait staff, Nicole was exceptional! They all made our evening memorable!
I participated in the tour starting at 12:00. The snorkeling lasted about an hour, followed by approximately an hour of cruising before returning. When I joined, I was lucky enough to see a sea turtle swimming.
It was great to experience something out of the ordinary while snorkeling slowly in deeper waters and swimming alongside the fish and sea turtles. The water was clearer than I expected, making it enjoyable to swim. For Japanese speakers, a simple one-page notice with precautions was provided.
12時からのツアーに参加しました。
シュノーケリングは大体1時間程度で行われました。そのあと1時間程度クルージングをして戻る流れです。
私が参加した時はタイミングよくウミガメが泳いでいるのがみれました。
深めのところをゆっくりシュノーケリングで、さかななウミガメをみながら泳ぐことで非日常を感じることができてよかったです。
また思っていたよりも海の透明度も高く泳いでいて楽しかったです。
日本人対応だと、注意事項など簡単な1枚の注意書きが書いてある紙が渡されました。
Snorkeling in the middle of the ocean, just a short cruise from Waikiki Beach... I was thrilled to see large sea turtles and fish swimming right beside me. On the way back, we cruised a bit offshore, cutting through the wind. It was a wonderful activity that allowed me to fully enjoy the ocean.
ワイキキビーチから 少しクルーズした海の真ん中で シュノーケリング・・・すぐそばで 大きなウミガメや 魚たちが泳いでいて 大感激でした。帰りは 風を切って少し沖までクルージングです。海を思う存分堪能できる 素晴らしいアクティビティーでした。
