All Reviews for Baby Friendly (Ages 0-2)

As I saw in the movie, the sandbar where it suddenly becomes shallow was a very mysterious and wonderful place. The clarity of the seawater was indeed high, but it was a bit disappointing that it was cloudy that day. I hope to go on a sunny day next time. However, I was able to see many turtles and fish, and the staff's service was great, so I was very satisfied. I definitely look forward to visiting again!

映画で見たとおり、そこだけ急に浅瀬になっているサンドバーは、とても不思議で素敵な場所でした。
海水の透明度もさすがに高かったのですが、当日は曇り空だったので、それだけはちょっと残念でした。次回は晴れの日に行きたいなと思います。でも、亀もお魚もたくさん見れたし、スタッフの応対も良かったので大満足です。
また、是非宜しくお願いします！！

I wanted to join the recommended plan, but due to scheduling conflicts with other tours, I participated in the early morning plan.

The Japanese guide (a woman) kept the atmosphere lively with jokes and provided clear instructions at the sea turtle viewing points. I was able to see many more sea turtles than I had expected, and I even spotted baby turtles.

After the sea turtle viewing, we moved to the sandbar. The weather was nice, but the seawater was cold... (though it was fine once I got used to it). The scenery was just as beautiful as I had seen in photos!

After that, we went snorkeling, but contrary to my expectations, the visibility wasn't very good, and I felt like I hardly saw any fish. Additionally, the water was quite deep, and the current seemed relatively fast, so I recommend that those who are not experienced with snorkeling definitely use the floatation devices provided by the staff. (As a beginner, I found it tough without one.)

Overall, I think the tour is enjoyable, with all the staff being friendly and cheerful.

おすすめプランに参加したかったのですが、
他のツアーとの時間の兼ね合いで早朝プランへ参加しました。

日本人ガイドの方（女性）がジョークも交えつつ
盛り上げてくれ、ウミガメ観賞ポイントでは
ポイントをきちんと教えてくれました。
予想していた以上にウミガメが沢山見られ、
更には子ガメも発見できました。

ウミガメ観賞後はサンドバーへ移動。
天気は良かったのですが、海水は冷たかった・・・
（慣れてしまえば平気ですが）
写真で見ていたのと同じ風景ですごく綺麗でした！

そのあと、シュノーケリングをしましたが、
こちらは予想に反してあまり透明度が無く、
魚もほとんど見られなかったように感じます。
しかも水深は結構深く、流れも比較的早いように思うので、
シュノーケリングに不慣れな方は、スタッフが貸してくれる浮き棒？を必ず使うことをお勧めします。
（私は初心者だったのでこれがないときつかったです）

全体的にはスタッフの方も全員フレンドリーで明るく、
楽しく過ごせるツアーだと思います。

I participated on Sunday, April 29, during Golden Week. I expected it to be crowded, but perhaps due to the slightly chilly weather and light rain in the afternoon, there were fewer people. Everything flowed smoothly except for the Raging River, and I was able to enjoy all the attractions, which made me very satisfied. The bodyboarding was especially fun; we rented the large wave pool for 30 minutes with 88 people and got to ride the waves to our heart's content. I was a beginner, but the instructor timed it perfectly to help me catch the waves, allowing me to enjoy it multiple times.

For the Island Racer and Raging River, it's better to ride early when it's less crowded since they switch every 30 minutes. Both are popular attractions. The most thrilling and scary ride was Shaka. This ride also stops every 30 minutes, so it's wise to ride it while it's less busy. I don't think there are many attractions with this level of thrill in Japan, so families with children will definitely enjoy it.

Lunch was a buffet with all-you-can-eat options including hot dogs, rice, fried chicken, spare ribs, beef steak, salad, and fruit. Although the selection was limited, the beef was very tender, juicy, and delicious. Of course, I was able to go back for seconds, which made me very happy. Drinks were available at a bar-like area in the center of the pool, where you could drink as much as you wanted. Many people came without lunch, but there was only one food court. They sold pizza, hot dogs, local foods, and desserts, but I think it’s more economical to sign up for the lunch package with unlimited drinks.

Overall, it was a very satisfying day. The bus transportation was in a large bus that took us right to the front entrance, and we arrived before opening. We were able to stay until after 3 PM, which was great, but time flew by because we were having so much fun, and I wanted to play even more. So next time, I plan to rent a car and spend a full day there.

I think riding the popular attractions "Raging River, Shaka, and Tornado" in the morning will make it easier to get around later. When we went, the Island Racer was popular, and since four people can start at the same time, the wait time was very short, allowing us to enjoy it three times in a row. After the rain, it got a bit chilly, so we were able to warm up in the jacuzzi. Going with a large family will definitely make for an exciting time!

4/29ＧＷの日曜日に参加。混んでいるだろうと予測しておりましたが当日は少し肌寒く午後からは小雨も降ったせいか人が少なくレイジングリバー以外はスムーズに流れすべてのアトラクションを制覇する事が出来てとても満足でした。何と言ってもボディボードは大きな波のプール8８人で30分貸し切って思いっきり波に乗る事が出来ました。私は初心者でしたがインストラクターの方がタイミングを見計らってうまく波に乗せてくれるので何度も何度も楽しむ事ができました。アイランドレーサー＆レイジングリバーは30分交代なので空いている時は早目に乗る方がいいです。どちらも人気があるアトラクションです。1番スリル満点で怖かったのはシャカです。こちらも30分に1度運転停止になるので空いている間に乗るのが賢いです。まあ日本ではこんなにスリルがあるアトラクションはないと思うので家族ずれの子供なんかはとても喜ぶと思います。ランチは食べ放題のビュッフェ付きでホットドック、ご飯、唐揚げ、スペアリブ、牛肉のステーキ、サラダ、フルーツと品数は少なかったのですがこちらの牛肉がとても柔らかくてジューシーでとても美味しかったです。勿論何回もおかわりが出来て大満足でした。ドリンクは食事以外でもプール中央辺りにあるバーの様な所で好きなだけ飲めました。お昼ご飯を付けずに来ていた人が多かったのですがフードコートは1箇所。ピザやホットドック、ローカル食べ物からデザート迄販売されてましたがランチ付きドリンク飲み放題で申込をした方がお得だと思いました。全体的にとても満足な１日でした。バスでの送迎も大型バスで正面玄関迄送ってくれるし開店前には現地到着、帰りは15時過ぎ迄ととても満足の行く時間迄滞在出来ましたが楽しくて時間が経つのが早くもっともっと遊んでいたかったです。なので次回はレンタカーを借りて丸1日遊んでみたいと思います。とにかく人気アトラクション「レイジングリバー・シャカ・トルネード」は午前中に乗っておくと後が廻りやすくなると思います。私達が行った時は「アイランドレーサー」が人気でしたが1度に4人が同時にスタートが出来るので廻ってくる順番がとても早く私達も3回一気に楽しみました。雨が降った後少し肌寒くなったのでジャグジーで体を温める事も出来ました。家族大勢で行くと盛り上がる事間違いなしです。

It was disappointing that the sandbar wasn't fully exposed since we participated close to high tide. However, the water level was about knee-deep, so we had fun playing volleyball with other participants.

The subsequent turtle watching from the boat and snorkeling at the coral reef were also great. Even without scuba diving, we were able to interact with tropical fish.

満潮に近い時間帯での参加だったのでサンドバーが完全には露出していなかったのが残念です。でも、水位は膝下くらいなので、アクティビティ参加者同士で、バレーボールをして楽しめました。
その後の船上からのウミガメ観賞やサンゴ礁でのシュノーケリングも良かったです。スキューバダイビングをせずとも熱帯魚と戯れることができました。

I wanted to forget the daily hustle and bustle, so I joined the tour alone and relaxed.

As we headed out to the sea by boat, a beautiful sandy beach suddenly appeared, which felt quite magical.

I checked the low tide times in advance, so everything went according to plan! I was able to see the sandbar.

Depending on the time, the sandbar may not be fully visible, so I definitely recommend checking the low tide times before participating.

Several sea turtles showed up, and I was able to take great photos!!

Since I was the only one participating alone, the staff were very attentive, and thanks to them, I had a wonderful time.

日頃の喧騒を忘れたくて
のんびり、ひとりで参加しました。

沖まで船で向うと、きれいな砂浜が突然姿を現す
不思議な感覚でした。

前もって干潮の時間を調べて参加したので、
予定どおり!～ｻﾝﾄﾞﾊﾞｰを見ることができました。

時間によってはｻﾝﾄﾞﾊﾞｰが完全に出ないこともあるので、
絶対に干潮の時間を調べて参加することをおすすめします。

海ガメも何匹も姿を見せてくれて、
バッチリ写真が取れました!!

私だけひとり参加だったためか、ｽﾀｯﾌの方がすごく気遣ってくれて、
おかげですごく楽しめました。

On the last day, I made a reservation for the shuttle bus to the airport, which was supposed to pick me up at 3:00 PM, right on the day of my return.

The voucher indicated a departure at 10:30, so I arrived 15 minutes early, but it seems the daily departure is at 11:00. I was told to come back at 10:45, and in the end, the departure was at 11:15, so I had to wait quite a bit.

Still, the hour and a half boat trip was very pleasant, and it was a meaningful time to say goodbye to Hawaii on my last day.

Various yachts were sailing around, but this one took us further out and was faster, which made it a lot of fun.

Afterward, I washed my hands and feet at the water station by the hotel pool and quickly changed in the restroom on the first floor of the hotel.

Since I felt a bit sticky from the seawater, I recommend preparing a change of clothes in a small eco bag for the day of your return.

最終日。空港までのシャトルバスが15時に迎えに来るという、まさに帰国する日に予約をしました。

バウチャー券に10:30出航とあり15分前に行きましたが、毎日11:00出航のようで10:45に来てと言われ、結局11:15の出航で、だいぶ待ちぼうけをしました。

それでも1時間半の船旅は、とても気持ちが良く☆、ハワイにお別れをする最終日にとても相応しい☆、有意義な時間を過ごせました☆☆☆

色々なヨットが周りを走っていましたが、こちらのほうがより遠くへ行ってくれて、スピードもあって、とても楽しかったです♪

終わったあとは宿泊ホテルのプールに設置されている水道で手足を洗い、ホテル1階にあるトイレでささっと着替えをしました。

やっぱり海水で少しだけベタついたので、帰国日の際は、着替えをエコバックなどに小さく用意しておくことをおすすめします。

I participated in September of the year before last. The sandbar was very beautiful. There was a lot of lunch prepared, but it was disappointing that when our turn came, the staff hurried us to "please get into the water quickly," so we couldn't eat much.

I thought the water temperature would be low, so I brought a wetsuit top from Japan. Since I was wearing this, I didn't feel too cold, but most of the other participants were in swimsuits or rash guards and were shivering after getting back on the boat. Many people got cold, and the number of participants for the second snorkeling session significantly decreased. I thought it would be nice if they provided wetsuits given the water temperature.

I think it would be fine during warmer periods, but in the fall, it's a good idea to prepare for the cold. I'm glad we used a tour since it's a place we couldn't go to on our own.

参加したのは一昨年の9月です。
サンドバーとってもきれいでした。
ランチもたくさん用意されていましたが、自分たちの順番が回ってきて「早く海に入ってください」とスタッフに急かされあまり食べられなかったのが残念でした。

水温は低いだろうと思って日本からウエットスーツ素材の上着を持参しました。
これを着ていたので寒さはあまり感じませんでしたが、他の参加者はほとんどの方が水着やラッシュだったのでボートに上がってから震えていました。
体が冷えてしまった人が多くて、2度目のシュノーケリングは参加者が激減。
あの水温だったらウエットスーツを貸してくれたらいいのになと思いました。

水温が高い時期なら問題ないと思いますが、秋だと寒さ対策をしておくといいと思います。
自分たちだけでは行けないところなのでツアーを利用してよかったです。

This was my second visit to Wet 'n' Wild, and it was still a lot of fun. Perhaps because it was a weekday, not all the slides were open, so I was disappointed that I couldn't ride everything I wanted.

If I could have stayed an extra 30 minutes, I would have enjoyed it even more... After factoring in time for lunch and changing, the actual time to play was surprisingly short.

2度目のウェット・アンド・ワイルドでしたが、やはり楽しかったです。平日だったせいか、すべてのスライダーがオープンしてなくて、乗りたいものに乗れなかったのが残念。

帰りの時間をあと30分でも遅くしてもらえるともっと楽しめたのに…お昼食べて着替えの時間を入れると正味遊べる時間が意外に少ない。

Snorkeling is not enjoyable; you can only look at a few corals, and it's a bit tough without fins. The lunch on the boat was just okay.

シュノ−ケリングは楽しめません、わずかなサンゴを眺めるだけ、フィンなしでは少々辛い。船上のランチは、まあまあかな。

It was a little cold, but I was very satisfied because I could see a beautiful ocean and got close enough to touch a sea turtle! It’s not cold once you’re in the water, but the wind on the boat after getting out of the sea is chilly, so I think it’s a good idea to have one piece of warm clothing.

I’m thinking I want to go again!

ちょっとだけ寒かったけど、とってもきれいな海が見れ、ウミガメにも手で触れる距離くらい近く接近できたので満足です！
海の中に入れば寒くないのですが、海から上がったあとの船上で受ける風が寒いので、防寒具は1枚あったほうがいいと思います。

また行きたいなーと思っています！

It may have been a coincidence, but there were no other Japanese people besides us among the staff and passengers. It was mostly young Americans, which was very nice. The catamaran was also wonderful.

たまたまかもしれないが、受付も乗客も我々以外に日本人はいなかった。　ヤングアメリカンばかりで、大変良かった。
カタマランも素晴らしい。

It seems that the weather around the sandbar can be unstable. When I participated, it was sunny and about 28 degrees in Waikiki, but Kaneohe Bay was cloudy with some rain. However, I was able to see the sandbar, so it was still a lot of fun.
Advice for those participating:
It's better to prepare for the cold!!
(Check the weather in Kaneohe Bay on the day, not Waikiki.)
If you have long-sleeved swimwear for surfing, and a jacket and something like sweatpants to wear after getting out of the water, you won't feel cold. (The guide was wearing a windbreaker...)
If the weather is clear, it's the best. The burgers for lunch are delicious!

サンドバーのあたりは、天候が不安定みたいです。
参加した時も、ワイキキは、晴天２８度くらいだったけど、カネオヘ湾は、曇って雨もパラついていました。でも、サンドバーはみれたので、やっぱり楽しかったです。
参加される方へのアドバイス：
寒さ対策あったほうがいいです！！
（ワイキキではなく、当日のカネオヘ湾の天気チェックしてください。）
サーフィン用などの、長袖水着とか、海から上がったあと、上着と、下にはくジャージの様な物もあれば、寒くないです。（ガイドさんは、ウインドブレーカーきてました・・）　
天気晴れたら、最高です。お昼のバーガーおいしいです~！　

Great evening and entertainment. Sat by door which despite staffs attempts to block off, was continually opened by customers causing a lot of wind while we ate.

I participated in the early morning plan, and although my stay was only about two hours, I was very satisfied. It was a lucky day as the sandbar was completely exposed due to low tide! I also got to see a rainbow and even a sea turtle, which was amazing! If you're going to the beach, I recommend this place over Hanauma Bay! However, there might be fewer types of fish for snorkeling. The staff were also very friendly, making it fun and taking photos for us.

早朝プランに参加させていただき、滞在時間は2時間ほどですがとても満足できました。
参加当日は引き潮で完全にサンドバーが現れているラッキーな日でした！
虹も見れて、ウミガメもちょっとだけど見れて最高！！
海に行くならハナウマ湾よりこっちがオススメです！ただ、
シュノーケルの魚は種類が少ないかも…。
スタッフの皆さんも楽しく盛り上げてくれたり、写真撮ってくれたりとても親切でした。

It was simply amazing. This was the best part of the tour. The wind was quite strong and the waves were high, so we ended up soaking wet as if we had taken a shower, but that made it even more fun. My husband and I are already talking about participating again the next time we go to Hawaii. Despite the huge waves, I didn't feel seasick at all, which was incredibly enjoyable. The tour lasted about two hours and was reasonably priced, so I signed up with a casual mindset, but it turned out to be a great decision. On the way back to Waikiki Beach, we encountered sea turtles twice, which really boosted our excitement. When the staff threw out some food, a lot of fish came over, and that was great too. I highly recommend it.

とにかく面白いの一言です。
今回のツアーの中では最高でした。
風が結構あって波も高かったのでまるでシャワーをあびたようにびしょぬれ状態でしたが、そこがまた楽しくて今度ハワイに行った時も絶対に参加しようと主人と話しています。
あんなにすごい波なのに船に酔うという事が楽しすぎて全くありません。
時間も２時間位だしお値段も安いのでついでの様な気持ちで申し込んだツアーでしたが、大正解でした。
ワイキキの浜へ戻る時にウミガメと2回遭遇してまたテンションが上がりました。
スタッフの方が餌をまいたら沢山お魚が寄ってきてそれも良かったですよ。
かなりお勧めです。

I payed an extra 25 dollars per person for a guaranteed private table but the couples table next to us was maybe 6 inches away. Not very private at all. This issue aside it was a great experience and we had a lot of fun.

The guidance to the boat dock was very enjoyable thanks to the driver's stories. Once we arrived at the location, the staff on the boat were cheerful, and we encountered sea turtles four times. It was truly moving to meet them at such a close distance that we could reach out and touch them. The sandwiches on the boat were also very delicious. I definitely want to participate again next time.

ボート乗り場までの案内は、運転手さんの話がとても楽しかったです。
現地に着いてからボートの中でも、スタッフさんが明るく、ウミガメにも4回遭遇出来ました。
手を伸ばせば触れる距離で出会えたのはとても感激でした。
ボートの上でのサンドイッチもとてもおいしかったです。
次回もぜひ参加したいです。

The weather was unfortunately not great that day, and I was wondering how it would turn out, but by the time we boarded the boat, the rain had stopped. It wasn't perfectly sunny, but the weather was decent!

We boarded the boat and arrived at the sandbar. The Japanese guide was a really cheerful lady. It was a bit windy, so it was slightly cold, but the scenery was beautiful and we had a great time. I was moved to see so many sea turtles. The hamburger lunch with patties grilled on the boat's deck was especially delicious!!!

この日はあいにくの天気でどうなるかと思いましたが船に乗るころには雨もやみ、快晴とまでは行きませんでしたがまずまずの天気でした！

船に乗り込みサンドバーへ到着。
日本人ガイドさんもすごくのりのいいお姉さんで＾＾
少し風が強かったので若干寒かったですがとてもきれいで楽しめました。
ウミガメもたくさん見れて感動しました。
特に船のデッキ、グリルで焼いてくれたパティをはさんだハンバーガーランチはとてもおいしかったです！！！

I went to a luau show. I wasn't expecting much, as I didn't plan to go all the way to the Polynesian Cultural Center.

However, I was pleasantly surprised. Even though I didn't understand the language, it felt like everyone could participate. The final fire dance was breathtaking. The dancers looked like they were having so much fun, which made it enjoyable for us too.

The meeting point was a bit hard to find, and the guidance wasn't sufficient, so I was a bit confused. I paid extra for good seats, but those who got in early were able to sit in the front. To get in early, you should stay a bit away on the Ala Moana side rather than at the meeting point. I think the guidance was provided early.

ルアウショーに行ってきました。
あまり期待していなかったのですけど、
ポリネシア文化センターとかまで行く気はなかったもので。

でも、いい方に裏切られました。
言葉はわからなくても、みんなで参加できた感じです。
最後のファイアーダンスは圧巻です。
ダンサーは皆さん、とっても楽しそうに踊っていて、
それがまた楽しかったです。

集合場所がちょっとわかりずらいのと、案内も十分では
なかったので、戸惑いました。
プラス料金でいい席を取りましたが、そのなかでも
早く会場に入ることができた方が一番前に座れます。
早く会場に入るには、
集合場所よりもアラモアナ側で遠巻きにしていること。
案内が早くされたと思います。

I was very satisfied with the 90-minute cruise while enjoying the view of Waikiki Beach. I was able to relax and forget about time.

９０分のワイキキビーチを眺めながらのクルージングに大満足。
時間を忘れながらのんびり出来ました。

I participated in the luxurious BBQ lunch plan that departs in the afternoon. Unfortunately, the weather was not great on the day of the event, and it was drizzling when we left the hotel in Waikiki. When we arrived at Kaneohe Bay, the sky was still covered with thick clouds, and it was windy and cold.

We took a boat close to the sandbar and walked from there for photos and DVD filming. It was just so cold that it was unbearable.

For snorkeling, we swam in two lines, but the strong wind made it difficult to move forward, and although it was only about ten minutes, it was quite tiring.

After that, we returned to the boat for the BBQ, but due to the cold, I didn't have much of an appetite and couldn't eat much.

However, it was a rare experience to see sea turtles swimming up close.

The DVD is prioritized for those who paid for it, and they take various poses for you. I think it will serve as a nice memento.

I believe the enjoyment of this activity is greatly affected by the weather. (The next day, I flew over the sandbar in a Cessna on a sunny day, and it was beautiful, which made me feel quite disappointed.)

午後出発の豪華ＢＢＱランチプランに参加しました。
当日はあいにくの空模様でワイキキのホテルを出発するときは小雨でした。カネオヘ湾に到着した時も空は厚い雲に覆われて風が強く寒かったです。
ボートでサンドバーの近くまで行き、そこから歩いて写真とＤＶＤ撮影。とにかく寒くてたまりませんでした。
シュノーケルは全員で２列縦隊になって泳いで行くのですが風が強くて流されてしまいなかなか前へ進めず、時間にして１０分くらいなのでしょうが結構疲れました。

そのあとボートに戻ってＢＢＱですが、あまりの寒さで食欲はなくそれほど食べれませんでした。

でも海亀が間近まで泳いでくるので貴重な体験ができました。

ＤＶＤは有料で申し込んだ人が優先的に映り、いろんなポーズとかで取ってくれます。一応、記念にはなると思います。

このアクティビティは天候により楽しさが大きく左右されると思います。(翌日、晴天の日にセスナの体験飛行でサンドバーの上空を飛びましたがとてもきれいでとても残念に思いました。）

Since my child is small, the attractions we could enjoy were limited, and the place felt unnecessarily spacious. There were also many attractions that were closed, so I didn't have much fun. The weather was bad and cold; my child was happy, but I don't want to go back.

子供が小さいせいもあるのですが、やれるアトラクションも限られてるし、無駄に広いし、閉鎖されているアトラクションも多くて、あまり楽しくなかったです。
天気も悪くて、寒かったし、子供は喜んでいましたが、もう行きたくないな。

Since you won't see them if you don't go during this season, I went for the second time. The waves were a bit high, so they didn't appear for a while, but they finally showed themselves. They were a bit farther away than last time, but it was great to feel the size of the whales again. I recommend it for those who can go during the whale season.

この時期に行かないと見ないので、２回目ですが、行ってきました。
少し波が高いので、なかなか現れなかったのですが、ようやく姿を見せてくれました。
前回より遠めですが、改めて鯨の大きさを感じれて良かったです。
鯨のいる季節に行かれる方はお薦めです。

It was a wonderful sandy beach, sky, and sea. The weather was great, making it the perfect day. The staff were Japanese and very accommodating. I would like to participate again.

すばらしい砂浜、空、海。
天気も良くて最高の一日でした。スタッフの方も日本人で対応も良かったです。また参加したいです。

It looked like a lot of fun in an American style, but I was unfortunately seasick.

アメリカンなのりでとても楽しそうなんですけれど、船酔いしてしまい残念でした。

I applied for the Golden Circle Premium, but I was very disappointed as my seat was in a backstage-like area. I had high expectations for my first luau show. I arrived early, but the ticket exchange was not prioritized, and there were people who already had tickets while others were waiting in line, which was disappointing due to the lack of guidance. It felt like the seating was grouped by foreigners and Japanese. The food was delicious.

ゴールデンサークルプレミアムに申し込んだのですがせきが舞台裏のようなところでとても残念でした。初めてのルアウショーで期待をしていたのですが。早くから行っていたのですがチケットの交換が優先ではなく順番だった人もいればもうすでに持っている人がいたりで案内もなくがっかりでした。席が外国人と日本人とにグループ分けがしてあったかんじでした。料理は美味しかったです。

We participated as a family of five with children aged 7, 4, and 2. The weather was nice on the day of the event, the sea was calm, and we were able to see sea turtles, making it a very enjoyable experience. The boat was filled only with Japanese participants, and there were also Japanese female staff members, so the children felt comfortable. With around 20 participants, it was easy to interact with nearby families and couples, and at the sandbar, even small children could play leisurely while holding hands with their parents. Only my 7-year-old and I tried snorkeling. There were long floats that allowed us to view the underwater scenery side by side, making it surprisingly easy to see coral reefs and small fish. For lunch, the staff grilled hamburgers on the boat, and we could enjoy our meal while leisurely taking in the scenery. It was a fun tour. For reference, the meeting place was not our accommodation, so I was a bit worried about whether we were in the right spot until the pickup arrived. The bus was shared, and I was concerned that nearly 90% of the passengers were American, wondering if there were no other Japanese participants, but I felt relieved when we met up at the dock. Additionally, my wife mentioned that the staff shared interesting stories on the microphone during the bus ride, but since it was all in English, it was boring if you didn't understand. I thought it would be nice to have books or toys for the children to keep them entertained during the bus ride.

７才、４才、２才の５人家族で参加しました。当日は天候も良く海も荒れず、ウミガメも鑑賞でき大変楽しく参加できました。船も日本人参加者のみで乗船でき日本人の女性スタッフもいましたので子供たちも懐いていました。船も参加人数がごちゃごちゃしない２０人程度でしたので程よく近くの家族連れやカップルと交流ができ、サンドバーでは小さい子供も親と手を繋いでのんびり遊べます。シュノーケリングは７才の子と私だけ挑戦しました。２人で並んで水中を鑑賞できる長い浮きなどもあり案外簡単にサンゴ礁や小魚を鑑賞できました。お昼はスタッフが船上でハンバーガーを焼いてくれて船でのんびりと景色を見ながら食べれます。楽しいツアーでした。参考までに集合場所が私たちは宿泊先ではなかったので少々迎えがくるまでここでいいのか心配でした。バスも乗り合いで米国人が９割近く乗車してて日本人はいないのかと心配になりましたが船着き場で合流できたので安心しました。あとバスの中で妻曰くおもしろい話をスタッフがマイクで話していたそうですが、終始英語なので解らないと退屈です。バスの乗車中、本など子供がひまを紛らわせるおもちゃなどあるといいかなと思いました。

On the day, it was quite windy and cold. The paper cups with drinks were being blown around quite a bit. Since everything was in English, I felt like I was just kind of looking at it... The fire dance was amazing. As for the food, it was just okay.

当日は風も強くて寒かったです。
飲み物の入った紙コップも結構飛ばされていました。
全て英語なのでなんとなく見ているという感じで・・・
ファイヤーダンスはすごかった。
食事はこんなののかな？くらいです。

I visited Kailua last January, and since I only did sightseeing then and didn't swim, I made sure to participate this time with the intention of definitely getting into the ocean.

The wind was strong and it was a bit chilly, but I was able to relax and enjoy the beautiful scenery.

There were quite a few participants, but the staff at the shop were efficient in giving instructions, which minimized any time loss, and that was great.

On the way to the beach, I bought breakfast at a small market and enjoyed it on the beach, which was delicious. (I later found out it was a famous market.)

The pizza for lunch was also tasty. The lady at the pizza shop was a fun person.

It was a last-minute trip, but with Alan1, I was able to confirm my reservation immediately, making it easy to plan. I would like to use their services again. Thank you very much.

カイルアには昨年１月に行き、その時は観光のみで泳がなかったので、この次は絶対海に入るぞっと思い、参加しました。

風が強く、少し肌寒かったですが、綺麗な景色でのんびりできました。

結構沢山の参加者でしたが、ショップの方はテキパキと指示されて時間のロスも無く良かったです。

ショップからビーチまで歩いて行く間にある、小さなマーケットで朝ごはんを買ってビーチで食べたのも、美味しかったです。
（あとから有名なマーケットだったとわかりました。）

お昼のピザも美味しかったです。ピザのお店のおばさんも楽しい人でした。

急に決めた旅行でしたが、Alan１さんは申し込み即確約できて、プランが立て易かったです。またお世話になりたいです。有難うございました。

It was difficult due to the timing, and I couldn't see any whales. However, the staff were wonderful, and I had a valuable and enjoyable experience. Thank you very much.

時期的に難しくもあり、ホエールをみることはできませんでした。
しかし、スタッフのみなさんもすばらしく、貴重な楽しい体験ができました。
ありがとうございました。
