I participated in the tour on the morning of April 12. The tide was high, and the minimum line was at waist level, so we couldn't see the sandbar. Moreover, the weather was bad and the water temperature was low, causing those who participated in snorkeling to shiver so much that they could hardly eat. It was disappointing that we couldn't fully enjoy the sea, but it was nice that a turtle came close to the boat. The staff also entertained us, and the food was delicious.
4月12日朝のツアーに参加しました。
潮位が高く、最低ラインは腰の位置で、サンドバーは見れませんでした。
しかも、天候が悪くて水温が低く、シュノーケリングに参加した人たちは、寒さで食事を取る手もガタガタ震えていたほどです。
十分に海を楽しむことができなくて残念でしたが、亀が船の近くまでよってきてくれたので、よかった。
スタッフも楽しませてくれたし、食事も美味しかった。

On the day of the event, it was cloudy with a north wind blowing, so I rented a free wetsuit. Since it was high tide, the water level in the sandbar area was up to my stomach, which was different from what I had seen in the guidebook, so I was a bit disappointed. Just as we were leaving, the weather finally improved, and at the very end, I was able to see the beautiful emerald green sea and encounter a sea turtle, so I rated it three stars.
参加当日は曇りで北風が吹いており寒かったため、無料のウェットスーツをレンタルしました。ちょうど満潮だったため、サンドバーのエリアも潮位はお腹の辺りまであり、ガイドブックで見たサンドバーとは異なっていたため、少しガッカリしました。帰り際にようやく天気が回復してきて、最後の最後でエメラルドグリーンに輝く綺麗な海が見られたのと、ウミガメに出会えたため、評価は星3つとしました。
Aloha! Thank you for participating in the Captain Bruce's Paradise Ocean Tour, TOMO. We hope to see you again next time to experience a different side of the sandbar. We look forward to your visit!

I had a reservation for the Star of Honolulu, but due to hull repairs, I was forced to cancel and quickly switched to the Majestic. However, even though it was just two docks away, I had quite a bit of trouble finding the boarding area. Because of that, I thought it might not compare well to the original cruise, but I believe the cost performance was actually better here. Unfortunately, it was cloudy, so I couldn't see the sunset, and I thought I might miss the fireworks too, but I was able to see them clearly, and they were not disappointing at all; I enjoyed them quite a bit. I thought the cocktail and light snacks were decent as well. More importantly, since I had planned to go directly to the boarding area, the outbound trip from the Kahala area would have been wasted, but thanks to VELTRA's negotiation, I was able to get a refund for one-way fare, which I was very grateful for. Because of that, my first ride back in a limousine was a fantastic experience.
スターオブホノルルを予約していたが船体補修とかでキャンセルを強いられ、急遽マジェスティックに切り換えた。処が、ふたつ先の桟橋なのに乗船場が分からず見つけるのにかなり苦労する。そんな事もあり当初のクルーズと比べてイマイチかなと思って乗船したが、コストパフォーマンスはこちらの方がよかったのではと思う。生憎曇っていてサンセットは見られず、花火もダメかなと思っていたらこれはしっかり見られて、その内容もそれ程ショボイものではなく、それなりに楽しめた。カクテル一杯と軽食もまあまあだったと思う。それより直接乗船場に行く事にしていた為、カハラ地区からの往路は無駄になるところだったのに、ベルトラさんのネゴで片道分をバックして貰えたのは大変有り難かった。お陰で、初めてのリムジンでの帰りは非常に気分が盛り上がったものであった。

Overall, the sunset cocktail cruise was excellent. The service staff was very attentive and would frequently go around the catamaran, refilling drinks and asking if you needed anything. The cruise itself did not take you very far from the pier, and stayed off the Waikiki coast, but still had an excellent view of diamond head and sunset. The appetizers were good, though not very substantial, consisting of chips, salsa, guacamole, salad, pasta salad, veggies, and rolls. Wouldn’t expect to get full from the food. The drinks were great, and basically free-flowing. Overall an excellent cocktail cruise

The staff warmly welcomed us and took commemorative photos. After boarding, the 3rd floor has a dinner class, while the 2nd floor offers appetizers. We were able to enjoy a buffet of light snacks (like meatballs) on the 2nd floor, where there were few passengers and the spacious interior of the ship allowed us to relax. There was live music on board that we could enjoy until we docked. The staff's service was also good. We went around the back of Diamond Head and returned, but since it was a new ship, we didn't experience any seasickness and were able to dock smoothly. The price was reasonable, and I highly recommend it.
出迎えではスタッフが丁寧に出迎え記念写真を撮ってくださいました。
乗船後3Fはディナーがあるクラスですが2Fはアペタイトです。私達は2Fで乗船客も少なくゆったりと広々とした船内で食べ放題の軽食(ミートボールなど)をたくさん食べることができました。船内では生演奏があり入港まで聞くことができました。スタッフの対応も良かったです。
ダイヤモンドヘッドの裏側まで行き引き返しますが、新しい船なので船酔いすることもなく寄港することができました。

I participated with my elementary school child. We joined from the Marriott Hotel, and perhaps because there were only a few people on this route's bus, the temperature inside was comfortable, not too cold.
There were some hiccups, like forgetting to bring mineral water on the boat, but it was a small boat, close to the sea, and the atmosphere on board was friendly and cheerful.
I checked the low tide times in Japan before participating, so the sandbar was at a nice level, just below the knees to the ankles. It was my first time snorkeling, but I felt reassured because the staff was there to support us if we were anxious.
Since I joined the morning course, we were able to return to Waikiki in the afternoon, making good use of our time. The staff's guidance was clear and enjoyable. I think I might get hooked on snorkeling!
小学生の子供と参加しました。
マリオットホテルからの参加でしたが、こちらのルートのバスは少人数だったからなのか、バスの中の温度も寒すぎず、快適でした。
船も ミネラルウォーターの積み忘れなどのハプニングはありましたが、小さな船で、海も近くて船の中も和気あいあいな感じでした。
引き潮の時間も日本で調べてから参加したので、サンドバーはひざ下から足首の感じのいい時期でした。
初シュノーケルでしたが、不安だったらスタッフの方たちがついていてくれたので、安心できました。
午前中のコースに参加したので、午後にはワイキキに戻ってこれたので、時間も有効に使えました。
スタッフの方のガイドもわかりやすく、楽しかった。
ちょっとシュノーケルにはまりそうです。

I participated because it was a filming location for the movie Pirates of the Caribbean. It took about 15 minutes from the port to the mooring point. During the ride, I enjoyed some drinks and brownies. When getting off the boat, I waded in the water to walk to the point. The shallowest water level at the point was about ankle-deep. The weather wasn't perfectly clear, but it was pleasantly sunny, and I had a great time.
After that, it was snack time. It was a buffet-style meal where you could eat as much as you liked. The food was good, especially the sausages, which were delicious. After finishing the meal, it was time for snorkeling. Unfortunately, it started to rain, so I couldn't see the beautiful underwater scenery with sunlight, but I did see a sea turtle.
When we returned, we had some free time to play with standing paddles and balls. My family cut their feet on the sandbar, but they received treatment from the first aid kit. The staff were very kind, and I had a fulfilling time. I would love to participate again!
If you're looking forward to enjoying the sandbar, I think it would be better to check the tide levels in Kaneohe in advance to have a more enjoyable experience.
映画パイレーツオブカリビアンのロケ地だった事もあり参加しました。
港から15分程で係留ポイントへ。
着くまでの間に飲み物とブラウニーをいただきました。
船から降りる時は腰浸かり、歩いてポイントへ。

ここで雨が降ってきてしまい、太陽が差し込む綺麗な海中は見られなかったですが、ウミガメも見られました。

On the way there, the driver provided a tour guide in English. It's not a big deal, but I learned a lot of things I wouldn't have known if I had been traveling by rental car. It was surprisingly good.
The crew consisted of three women and Captain Bob. One of them could speak Japanese, but even if you're worried about your English, it's not a problem. Everyone was friendly and fun.
The sandbar is just a shallow area offshore, so there's nothing particularly special, but you can practice snorkeling or play beach volleyball. I thought about walking to the end, but there were larger stones (pieces of coral) along the way, and it hurt my feet without sandals. It was also too wide to reach the end.
Next was turtle watching. This time, there were few turtles. However, there were a lot of mantas that came very close to the boat.
While snorkeling, there was a large turtle right nearby. After taking a ton of photos, I circled around the coral reef that spans about 1 km. When I returned to the boat to take a break, I spotted a shark. It seemed to be sleeping, so I dove down and got about a meter close to it.
There were many unexpected discoveries, and it was incredibly fun.
行きのバスではドライバーが英語で観光案内してくれる。大した話ではないがレンタカーで移動していたら知りえないことがいろいろ聞けた。意外とよかった。
船員は女性3名+キャプテンBOB。日本語ができる方は1名だが英語が心配な方でも問題ない。皆さん気さくで楽しい。
サンドバーは沖合の浅瀬というだけで特段何もないが、シュノーケルの練習やビーチ(?)バレーができる。端まで歩こうと思ったが、途中から大きめの石(サンゴのかけら)が多くなりサンダルがないと足が痛い。そもそも広すぎて端まで行けなかった。
次にタートルウォッチング。今回は亀は少なかった。しかし、マンタが大量にいて船のすぐ近くまで来てくれた。
シュノーケルでは、大きな亀がすぐ近くにいた。写真を撮りまくった後、周囲1Kmあるサンゴ礁をぐるりと一周。船に戻って休憩しよと思ったらサメを発見。寝ているようだったので素潜りで1mぐらいまで近づいてみた。
想定外の発見がいろいろあってめちゃくちゃ楽しかった。

I was torn between a large ship, but since I had a toddler with me, I decided to join this optional tour where toddlers are free at the buffet. A welcome drink is included, and you can enjoy unlimited food while sipping on that. With live music, hula dancers performed, and everyone on board danced and had a great time. The waitresses were also lively and good at dancing. There were many non-Japanese guests, and we celebrated together with people from various countries, including those celebrating anniversaries and birthdays. The sunset started to become visible around 6:30, and I was able to capture beautiful photos.

It was a good decision to bring marine boots instead of going barefoot on the sandbar.

I was picked up at the hotel, and although it started raining on the way, it stopped when we arrived. Then it rained again when we got on the boat, but it stopped once more. I was most concerned about the water level, but it was low, and we actually had a sandy beach! ❤
The staff were kind and friendly, taking photos with us and even acting as photographers, so we got a lot of great pictures. ✌
Right after that, we went snorkeling, and the staff provided very thorough instructions on putting on life jackets and masks, checking everything, and practicing to ensure that even first-timers could do it safely.
During snorkeling, the staff were always with us, making sure we didn't bump into the coral and showing us where the turtles were, so we could enjoy watching beautiful fish and turtles while feeling safe.
The BBQ on the boat was also very delicious, and we really had a great time and made wonderful memories.
Thank you so much to all the friendly staff. I definitely want to use this tour again when I visit Hawaii next time.

The day after the wedding, eight family members from both sides (ages 21 to 65) participated. The weather was nice, and we enjoyed walking slowly along the sandbar together. We took a lot of photos, and the staff were kind and helpful, which we appreciated.
For snorkeling, we were told we would swim in a spot where our feet wouldn't touch the bottom for 20 minutes. Since both mothers from each family were not confident, I decided to stay back as well. However, we were able to rent a boat and snorkel in shallower areas, which was a lot of fun. We even got to swim with sea turtles in the shallow water! By the way, my 65-year-old father really enjoyed snorkeling too (laughs).
The BBQ lunch was buffet-style, and the meat was tastier than I expected! There were also desserts. The staff were attentive and asked if we wanted more juice, which made us very satisfied!
結婚式翌日、両家の家族8人(21~65歳)で参加しました。
天気もよく、サンドバーをゆっくりみんなで歩いて楽しかったです。写真もたくさん撮っていただいて、スタッフのみなさんも優しくてありがたかったです。
シュノーケリングは20分間足がつかない場所で泳ぐとのことで、両家の母親が自信がないと残ったので私も残ったのですが、ボートの貸し出しや浅い場所でのシュノーケリングをさせていただき、とても楽しかったです。浅いところでもしっかりウミガメと泳げました!ちなみに65歳の父はしっかりシュノーケリング楽しめたそうです₍笑₎

I traveled to Hawaii without deciding what to do and made reservations on-site. I booked the Segway and Kualoa Ranch by phone, but it was inconvenient without a local number. However, with Veltra, everything was done via email and in Japanese, which was super convenient...!!!
On Saturday morning, I wanted to go to the farmers' market featured in the manga "Chatterbox After Breakfast," so I reserved the afternoon barbecue lunch option.
Basically, wearing a swimsuit is fine. I wore a bikini-style swimsuit that looked almost like clothes, along with a cover-up and a T-shirt, and most people around me were dressed similarly.
Depending on the weather, the day I went was not great, and it was really cold. I passed by the morning group at the dock, and everyone looked cold, but aside from that, it was really good.
- The barbecue lunch was a buffet style on the boat, and surprisingly delicious.
- I encountered a sea turtle. It came close to the boat as if the captain was keeping it. It swam right next to us.
- The snorkeling was fun with high visibility.
- For those who want to try stand-up paddleboarding, it's available! I didn't do it, but I regretted not trying.
- Hot coffee and tea were also available.
- Photos can be downloaded from the web later.
They also lend wetsuits for free to those who want them. Onboard, they sell waterproof disposable cameras, beach shoes, rash guards, T-shirts, and anti-nausea bands. The prices aren't excessively high compared to the market, so it might be worth buying. They also offer rentals for waterproof digital cameras.
What I was glad I brought was a waterproof case for my phone. Depending on the time and season, the day I went had quite a bit of water, and there weren't any beautiful dry sandy beaches like in the guidebooks. The water level was consistently around chest to shoulder height. A regular phone would definitely get submerged.
I brought a regular-sized towel, but a slightly larger one or even a bath towel would have been better since it was cold.
I want to try again on a nice day!
ハワイで、なにをするかも決めずにバタバタと渡航して、現地から予約。セグウェイとかクアロアランチは電話予約したのですが、現地の番号がないと不便でしたが、ベルトラからだとオールEメール、オール日本語でめっちゃ便利....!!!
土曜、午前中は、漫画「おしゃべりは朝ごはんのあとで」のハワイ編でも紹介されていたファーマーズマーケットへ行きたかったので、午後のバーベキューランチ付きの方を予約。
基本的に水着を着てけばオーケー。わたしはビキニタイプのほぼ洋服みたいな水着に、はおりもの+Tシャツでいきましたが、周りもほとんど同じような感じです。

-Supやりたい人は体験可能!これやらなかったんだけど、やればよかったと後悔。
-飲み物はホットのコーヒーとお茶もある
-写真は後日一枚、ウェブからダウンロード可能
ウェットスーツも希望者に無料で貸し出してくれます。
船上での販売物として、写ルンです(防水)、ビーチシューズ、ラッシュガード、Tシャツ、酔い止め防止バンドなどあります。相場より並外れて高いというほどではないので、購入してもいいかも。防水デジカメの貸し出しもあるそうです。
持って行ってよかったのは携帯の防水ケース。時間と時期によるのか、わたしが行った日はだいぶ水があって、ガイドブックに載ってるような干上がった美しい砂浜はなかったです。常に胸下から肩くらいまでの水位。普通の携帯なら確実に水没します。
タオルは普通サイズのタオルでいったんだけど、少し大きめか、いっそバスタオルがよかったかも。寒かったから。
天気いい時にリベンジしたい!
Aloha! Thank you for participating in the Captain Bruce's Paradise Ocean Tour.
Thank you for the very detailed report! I hope it will be helpful for everyone. We look forward to welcoming you back, Chiyoko! With the sea turtles!

The Japanese guide and all the staff were very cheerful and made the experience enjoyable! However, the weather was bad with rain and wind, and it was very cold, so we couldn't see any beautiful scenery at all... Everyone was shivering... It made me want to go home early. There's nothing we can do about the weather, though. This is part of the nature experience. Towards the end, they served us warm drinks, which was a relief. To be honest, I wish they had served them a bit earlier.
日本のガイドさんもスタッフ皆さんも、とても明るく楽しく盛り上げてくれて良かっです!
しかし、天気が悪く雨と風でとても寒く、綺麗な景色も全く見れず…
みんなブルブルガクガク…
寒いから早く帰りたくなりました。
天気ばかりは、どうしようもないですね。
これも、自然体験。
最後の方に温かい飲み物を出してくれてホッとしました。もう少し早く出して欲しかったのが本音。

This snorkeling tour was awesome! We didn’t luck out on the weather, but the crew was amazing! They were so good with kids, and very relaxed! They were also so attentive to making the trip enjoyable for everyone - offering to take pictures, offering fish food, offering drinks, supporting those who didn’t want to snorkel or who were anxious without being pushy. I loved it!

I signed up for this tour despite a busy schedule. The meeting time wasn't too early in the morning, and I was able to make it without any issues after breakfast. The meeting place was also close to the hotel, so I didn't get lost, but it's important to note that there were other tour groups at the meeting spot. It takes just under an hour by bus to reach the boarding location.
There were many Japanese participants on the boat, and the guide was also Japanese, making for a friendly atmosphere. We arrived at the sandbar about 20 minutes after departure. This time, the water was only ankle-deep due to low tide, which was surprising to find such a shallow area offshore.
We spent about an hour at the sandbar, enjoying volleyball with the guide and local staff. We had lunch (hamburgers) prepared by the local staff and went turtle watching. From the boat, we were able to see about 3 to 5 turtles. After that, we snorkeled for about an hour. While it’s said that you can occasionally see turtles while snorkeling, we didn’t spot any this time. However, there were various fish swimming around, and time flew by quickly.
I think this is a cost-effective tour.
ハードな日程の中、このツアーに申し込みました。
集合時間は朝早くなく、朝食後でも問題なく間に合いました。
集合場所もホテルの近くで迷うことなく行けましたが、集合場所には他のツアーの人もいるので注意が必要です。
乗船場所まではバスで1時間弱で着きます。
船は日本人参加者が多く、ガイドさんも日本の方で、フレンドリーな方々でした。
サンドバーは出港後約20分ほどで到着します。今回は干潮時で足首ほどの水深でした。沖にこんな浅瀬の場所があることにはビックリです。
サンドバーで約1時間ほどいましたが、ガイドさんや現地スタッフとのバレーボールを楽しめました。
現地スタッフが作ってくれた昼ご飯(ハンバーガー)を食べ、ウミガメウォッチです。船上からですが、3~5匹ほど見ることができました。
その後は1時間ほどのシュノーケリングで、まれにウミガメを見ることができるそうですが、今回は見ることができませんでした。ただ、魚がいろいろと群がっており、あっという間に時間は過ぎていきました。
費用対効果の高いツアーだと思います。

There are other tours to the heavenly sea, but Captain Bruce's tour was great. We were able to encounter relatively shallow areas. It was difficult to find pictures that looked too stylish, but there was about knee-deep shallow water.
天国の海ツアーは他にもあるが、キャプテンブルースのツアーは良かった。比較的浅瀬のところに出くわすことができた。写真のようなオシャレすぎる絵は難しく膝上ぐらいの浅さはあった。
Aloha! I'm really happy to hear that you enjoyed the tour. Please come back and visit us again. I hope next time you'll encounter the "too stylish" sandbar.
アロハ!ツアー良かったっておっしゃって頂いて本当に嬉しいです。
またぜひ遊びにいらして下さいね。次回は”オシャレすぎる”サンドバーに出会えますように。

I chose this tour because Captain Bruce's tour can take you to the shallowest spots, and although it was a bit pricey, I wanted to ensure a good experience. I checked the low tide times and made a reservation, but the water was up to my knees. I was disappointed. To reach the shallowest area, you have to wade through water up to your waist, so be prepared to get wet. It was unfortunate that the weather was bad and I couldn't see the views I was hoping for. That's just luck. I didn't want to get my face wet, so I skipped snorkeling, but I enjoyed stand-up paddleboarding. I felt that 30,000 yen, including tips, was expensive.
キャプテンブルースさんのツアーが一番浅い場所まで行けるとのことなので、少し値は張りますが確実を狙いたくてこちらのツアーにしました。干潮の時間を調べて予約しましたが、膝下まで水がありました。がっかり。一番浅い所に行くまでに腰まで水に浸かりながら行くので、濡れる覚悟は必要ですね。天気が悪く思っていた景色が見れず残念でした。こればっかりは運ですね。顔を濡らしたくなかったのでシュノーケリングはパスしましたが、サップをさせて頂け楽しかったです。チップ込みで30000円は高く感じました。
Thank you very much for participating in the Captain Bruce's Paradise of the Sea Tour the other day. The sandbar is a mysterious space created by various natural conditions. Since it is an outdoor tour, it can be affected by the weather, but during such times, our staff is even more eager to ensure that you have a fun time. By the way, tips are appreciated only if you are satisfied with the service. We hope you will come back to visit the sandbar again to experience its different facets.
先日はキャプテンブルース天国の海ツアーにご参加頂きまして本当にありがとうございました。
サンドバーは様々な自然条件が織りなす不思議な空間です。また屋外でのツアーのため天候によっても左右されますが、そんな時こそ出来るだけ楽しいお時間を楽しんで頂けるようスタッフがより張り切ってお客様をお迎えしております。ちなみにチップはあくまでもお客様がサービスにご満足頂いた時のみご検討頂ければ嬉しいです。ぜひまた機会があれば違った表情のサンドバーに会いにお越し頂ければと思います。

I didn't check the local tide chart, and the shuttle bus got caught in an accident-related traffic jam, which caused us to arrive at the port a bit late. As a result, the tide wasn't as low as I had imagined for walking on the sandbar, and the sandbar was submerged up to my knees. I was a little disappointed because I wanted to explore the sandbar. It seems that if you want to get onto the sandbar, it's best to check the tide chart and make a reservation. That said, the BBQ hamburger was exquisite. So delicious. The homemade ketchup and mayo sauce combined with the hamburger were just perfect, and it was worth eating just that. My whole family, including my kids (one girl and one boy, both in elementary school), had double burgers with double patties. The weather was bad, but we saw three sea turtles, and snorkeling in the clear ocean was amazing. My kids and I had plenty of fun just snorkeling. If the weather had been good, it would have been perfect!
現地の潮位表を確認しなかったのに加え、送迎バスも事故渋滞にはまって港に到着するのが少し遅れたこともあって、イメージしたサンドバーで砂洲の上を歩くような潮位にはならず、砂洲は膝下に水没した状態でした。砂洲を散策したかったので少し残念。砂洲にあがりたければ潮位表を確認して予約するのが良いみたい。とは言え、BBQのハンバーガーは絶品。うまい。自分で作るケチャップとマヨのソースとハンバーグがばっちりgoodでこれだけでも食べる価値有り。子供ともども家族全員パテダブルのダブルバーガーにしてもらいました。天候が悪かったけどウミガメは3匹見られたし、透明度の高い海でのシュノーケリングは最高。子供(女×1、男×1、ともに小学生)ともどもシュノーケルだけでも充分楽しめました。天気が良かったら最高だったのにな~。

The sunset was the goal, but due to bad weather, we couldn't go out into the bay. I didn't have high expectations for the food, but it was not delicious at all. It felt more like just having a meal inside the boat rather than a sunset dinner cruising experience.
サンセットが目的でしたが天候悪く湾の外に出られませんでした。料理については期待はしていませんでしたが全く美味しく有りませんでした。サンセットディナークルージングでは無く舟の中で食事だけした感じです。

Since I was planning to go to the North Shore in the afternoon, I chose this plan without a shuttle service. I arrived by rental car, and although there was no bench at the meeting point "Deli," the local staff were accommodating, so it wasn't a problem. I was worried about whether the tour would proceed due to the rain in the morning, but we only experienced a delay in preparation because of the rain, and we departed 15 minutes later with two boats. Everyone was Japanese, and it seemed that many participants were those who had taken the shuttle from Waikiki. Perhaps there was a Japanese-speaking guide. Despite the rain getting stronger at times, I didn't feel seasick, and we were able to see both sea turtles and manta rays. The water at Sandbar was about knee-deep, but I was very satisfied that we could land there. I didn't have high expectations for snorkeling, but there were life jackets available, so it was completely fine even if you couldn't swim. There were about 40 people swimming in lines along the coral reef, and since the time was limited and we swam the same route back and forth, it was crowded. My child was more concerned about bumping into the feet of the person in front or hitting the coral rather than looking at the fish, so it might have been better to wait on the boat. The participants were obedient to the instructions of the two Japanese female staff members, but one was kind while the other couldn't hide her condescending attitude. At the very beginning, when assigning guests to the boats, it seemed they didn't grasp the number of people who weren't participating via the shuttle bus, or perhaps their Japanese was actually limited. They acted arrogantly as if there were customers boarding without permission after exceeding the boarding limit, and after a debate about what was said, one of them yelled in Japanese, "Isn't it enough to just apologize?!" and then continued to assert herself in English towards her busy colleague, treating us as if we were completely at fault, which made for a rather strange experience in Hawaii. If there were English speakers present, that behavior wouldn't have happened. However, I have great respect for the local staff who worked hard without showing any displeasure in the rain. It seems there are no showers at the port, so I think it's better to prepare to return in wet swimsuits with towels and warm clothing. You can leave your belongings on the boat, but since there are no waterproof bags, it's also good to prepare for that.
午後にノースショアへ行く予定だったので、送迎ナシでこのプランを選びました。レンタカーで到着し、集合場所の「Deli」のベンチはなかったですが、現地のスタッフが対応してくれて問題なかったです。朝から雨で催行されるのか不安でしたが、雨で準備が遅れただけで二船で15分後に出航しました。全員日本人で、ワイキキからの送迎による参加の方が多かったようです。もしかしたら日本語ガイド付きだったのかもしれません。ときおり強くなる雨の中、酔う事もなく、ウミガメもマンタも見られて、サンズバーは膝ぐらいでしたが、上陸出来て大満足です。シュノーケリングはあまり期待してなかったのですが、ライフジャケットがあり、泳げなくても全然大丈夫です。40人ぐらいでサンゴ礁に沿って数列で泳ぐ形でしたし、時間も限られ往復同じ経路を泳ぐため混みこみで、前の人の足があたるか、サンゴに足が当たるかに気をとられ、魚を見るよりそちらを気にして子供は怖がっていました。船で待っていても良かったかもしれません。参加者の皆さん、素直に二人いる日本人?女性スタッフの言うことに従っておられましたが、一人は親切、一人は上からな態度が隠せないスタッフでした。最初どちらの船に客を割り振るかの時点で、送迎バスで参加していない人の人数を把握していないのか、日本語が実は不自由なのか、乗船制限を超えて割り振った挙句、勝手に乗り込んでいる客がいるかのように横柄に振る舞い、言った言わないの水かけ論の後、謝ればいいんでしょ!と日本語でわめき、その後も忙しく準備している同僚に対し英語で自己主張し、こちらに全部非があって、完全に変な客扱い・発言で、ハワイに来て違った意味で興味深い体験でした。英語圏の人がいたらあの振る舞いはないでしょうね。でも雨の中嫌な顔一つ見せず頑張っていた現地スタッフの方たちの働きには頭が下がりました。港にはシャワーがない様子なので、タオルや防寒具など濡れた水着のまま帰る準備をしておいた方が良いと思います。荷物は船に残しておけますが、防水バッグ等はないのでそちらの準備もしておくと良いです。
