At first, I was scared, but once I got used to it, I enjoyed it like a bird! You can get a great view of Diamond Head and Waikiki. It's okay to put your smartphone in a waterproof case and hang it around your neck. It might be a good idea to take motion sickness medicine for peace of mind. I recommend the $30 photo package; they take a lot of great pictures!
はじめは怖かったですが慣れると鳥の気分で楽しめました!

I was worried about how much my 2-year-old would enjoy it, but it seems they had fun seeing cows, pigs, and the ocean. Thanks to the Japanese staff who explained everything kindly, we had a great time! We brought a stroller, and they also helped us with where to put it, which was very helpful! During the final garden tour, my child got a bit restless and couldn't sit still, so we let them run freely on the grass in the great outdoors while we waited for the older kids to finish their activities. It turned out to be a very relaxing and enjoyable time.

I was anxious about my first fishing trip abroad, but the pickup van was easy to identify as it was blue, just like the tour company's name, and the crew were really nice people.
We only caught one fish, but we enjoyed the experience enough while cruising and admiring Diamond Head. By the way, there were others around us who caught two or three fish or more.
If I have the chance to go to Hawaii again, I would love to participate again.

We participated as a couple. I'm not very comfortable with heights, but being over the ocean made it not a problem at all. We joined at a height of 130 meters, but I think you can enjoy it at any height.
I thought about taking photos from above, but I was worried I might drop my smartphone, so I gave up. I ended up purchasing the photos taken by the guide.
Although we're not a young couple, we really wanted to participate in activities that feel Hawaiian, so it was great.
Also, the fact that the time commitment wasn't too long was a plus. After it was over, we could head back quickly, allowing us to enjoy the rest of the day.
夫婦で参加しました。余り高いところが得意ではないのですが、海の上だからか全然気にならなかったです。高さ130mで参加しましたが、どの高さでもそれなりに楽しめると思います。
上空から写真を撮ろうかとも思いましたが、スマホを落としそうな気がして断念。ガイドさんに撮っていただいた写真を購入しました。
若い夫婦ではないのですが、ハワイっぽいアクティビティにも参加したいと思っていたのですごく良かったです。

I was worried because I was about 10 minutes late for the meeting time, so I called the tour company. They told me to keep waiting as they were on their way, and a few minutes later, the pickup van arrived. It seemed to take some time because quite a few participants were on board. We sped along in a boat with little rocking for about 10 minutes and then flew in groups. There were groups that only got splashed a little on their toes and others that got splashed multiple times, so if you have a preference, you can let the guide know to enjoy it more. The guide didn't seem to speak much Japanese, but they tried to understand with their limited English, so there's no need to worry. It was fun!! Thank you, guide!! There are many photos, and all of them are beautifully taken, so it's worth buying them.
集合時間から10分ほど遅れたので心配でツアー会社に電話をしました。
そっちに向かっているので引き続き待っていてと言われ、数分後に迎えのバンが来ました。参加者が結構乗っていたので時間がかかったようです。揺れの少ない船で10分ほど爆走し、グループごとに飛びました。水ジャポンは足先だけちょびっとのグループと何度もジャポンされたグループがあったので、希望があればガイドさんに言うと楽しめます。日本語はあまり話せなさそうでしたが、つたない英語でも理解しようとしてくれるので心配いらないです。楽しかったです!!ガイドさんありがとう!!写真はたくさんあり全てきれいに撮れているので買ったほうがいいです。

I participated with my sixth-grade and third-grade boys. Since it was their first time, they were nervous and scared, but it seems they enjoyed it. I took motion sickness medication, so I didn't get seasick. However, it was a bit disappointing that the weather was cloudy. The local staff hardly spoke any Japanese. They mentioned it was cloudy and cool, and it was indeed cool. I think it would be hot if the weather were nice. I would like to participate again.

I was scared to see in the photos that people were flying with relatively light gear, and I was quite nervous about flying with light equipment myself. However, it turned out to be surprisingly stable...!!! For those who are afraid, I recommend trying the 150m jump with confidence. There are views there that you won't experience anywhere else.
The crew member was playful and funny, and later when I bought the SD card (make sure to ask if photos are okay in advance!), I was amazed to see how well the pictures turned out despite the boat rocking so much.
The SD card with photos was $30, and I gave the guide a $20 tip when disembarking. I think it's a good idea to have cash prepared.
写真で結構軽装備で飛んでいるのを事前に見ていて怖かったのですが
実際軽装備で飛ぶまで結構怖かったのですが

There were only three groups that day, so it was nice to have a small number of participants. The 120M plan had quite a height, and the weather was good, so the view was great. When the boat lifted off, I felt a thrill, but surprisingly, it was quite calm up in the sky, allowing me to have a normal conversation with my partner. The two staff members on board were friendly and great at getting everyone excited. They created an SD card with photo data for each participant, and while $30 (or $35 if paid by card) is a bit pricey, the photos turned out beautifully, and since we couldn't take our own from below, I ended up buying it. I wonder if a tip of $10 to $20 is the norm.
その日は3組しかいなかったので少人数で良かった。120Mプラン、なかなか高度はあって天気も良かったので景色が良かった。ふわっと船から舞い上げられるときはスリルを感じたが、意外と空の上でも普通に静かで相方と普通に会話ができるほど穏やかな空間。船上のスタッフ2名も気さくで盛り上げ上手だった。参加者ごとに写真データのSDカードを作成してくれて、30ドル(カード払いだと35ドル)は少々値が張るけど、キレイに撮れているし、下から自分達のは撮れないので買ってしまう。チップは10~20ドルが相場なのかしら。

The early morning reservation I made was fully booked, so I requested a time change and had various exchanges, but each time the communication was smooth.
On the day of the event, just a couple of minutes past the meeting time, I received a call from the hotel saying that the pick-up would be delayed. It was in broken Japanese, but I understood it. They informed me how long the delay would be and what kind of car would come, which made me feel reassured while waiting.
The staff member in charge was friendly and we had a very enjoyable time. There were five groups on board with us. Some people were also sightseeing on the boat. Each group had about eight minutes of time. I think seasickness depends on the weather, but no one in our group experienced it.
Everyone seemed to be about the same height.
You can bring a camera at your own risk. We were too scared to bring ours, and we regretted it. It's better to have sunscreen and sunglasses; you don't need a hat. You will be flying barefoot. Since you put your belongings under the seat, it's better to have smaller items. There is a slight splash of water.
You don’t have to buy the photos taken by the staff. By the way, they looked like grains of rice, and we couldn't tell who was flying, so we didn’t buy them. Of course, some people did purchase them.
The return transfer was also smooth without any waiting.
It was mainly in English, but they spoke clearly, so I think anyone would be fine.
I had a lot of fun, so I would like to do it again.

I participated alone, and when I actually gathered with others, there was only one other Japanese person, which made me a bit anxious. However, I managed with my very limited English. Once they realized I couldn't speak English, they responded in broken Japanese, so I could somewhat understand what they were saying.
Watching the parachutes flying from the boat, I was worried because they went much higher and farther than I expected. I thought, "Isn't this really scary? Can I handle it?" But when I actually experienced it, the feeling of exhilaration outweighed the fear. We were blessed with great weather, so the scenery was amazing!
However, while waiting my turn on the battlefield, I had to stay on a fast-moving, turning boat, so motion sickness medication is a must. In fact, I found that part to be scarier (laughs). But even with that fear, it became a great memory. If you stay at a designated hotel, they will pick you up and drop you off right in front of the hotel, so it's reassuring even if you don't have your own transportation. The crew and the drivers were all really nice, and if I have the chance to come to Hawaii again, I would love to do it again!

ただ、戦場で順番を待っている時、高速で走り、旋回するボートの上にいないとならないので、酔い止めは必須です。むしろ私はこちらの方が怖かった(笑)

We had a great morning cruise with Dolphins and You. The local crew (certified life guards and professional entertainers!) were very friendly and full of energy. They explained everything in both English and Japanese since there were quite a large number of Japanese tourists on our 40 person tour. There was music and dancing on the way to the spinner dolphin site. We sat at the back of the boat and enjoyed the sun and sea air; thank goodness we had lots of sunscreen! I wear glasses and there were prescription masks on the boat so I could see everything clearly.
The crew-led Hawaiian chant and orchid offering when we entered the dolphin site brought us good luck. The crew went in the water with us and pointed out several pods of dolphins swimming right by. I wanted to stay with the dolphins longer, but we had another scheduled stop. At the snorkeling site, a sea turtle swam right under our group and there were lots of fish all around. The inflatable water slide, “surfboard” and kayak added to the fun. For lunch we had cheeseburgers on taro buns with bags of chips — very tasty. The crew sang and danced a couple of hulas on the way back; a perfect ending to a great morning!
We drove from our hotel, arrived at the Waianae Boat Harbor early, and were a little concerned when we didn’t see any signs for Dolphins and You. However, a bus with Dolphins and You on the side pulled into the parking lot right where they said to meet at the specified meeting time. Be sure to take Dramamine if you think you might get motion sickness. Several people on the cruise got sick, even though I didn’t think it was very rough. I took a Dramamine before we left on the Dolphins and You cruise and was fine (I had gotten sick on a previous snorkel trip to Molokini off of Maui). Definitely APPLY SUNSCREEN early and often...the sun is very strong on the water.
Aloha Cathy, and mahalo for your 5-star review! We appreciate you taking the time to share your detailed and thoughtful review of our tour! And we're so glad that you appreciated the extra dose of Aloha that is unique to Dolphins and You :).
We could not agree more with your suggestions of Dramamine and sunscreen use. That's the best way to stay comfortable on the water. We also recommend reef-safe sunscreen (which we offer in our office in Waikiki) to protect both your skin AND Hawaii's fragile coral reefs! Thank you again for your review. Please come again some day!

After being picked up, I signed a waiver in the car. The driver didn't seem to understand Japanese, but since the waiver was in Japanese, there were no issues. It took about 10 minutes by car from the Ala Moana Hotel to arrive. We joined three groups that had arrived earlier, and we quickly boarded the boat while still carrying our luggage. Out of the three groups, two were Japanese and one was from overseas. There are no lockers on the boat, but I don't think it's a concern.
About 10 minutes after departure, we arrived at the parasailing point, where each group was fitted with harnesses to start parasailing. I don't think the instructors understood Japanese, but they explained the essentials in Japanese, so there was no inconvenience due to the language barrier. Before taking off, they asked in Japanese whether we wanted to purchase photos or do a "japon" (splash). Some people chose to buy photos, but no one opted for the "japon." Even without doing the "japon," they skillfully controlled the experience so that our feet could dip into the water.
I chose the 150-meter option, but since we were above water, I didn't feel any fear of heights, and the weather was great, allowing us to enjoy the stunning views. When getting off the boat, they managed it well, making it easy to disembark. Those waiting on the boat welcomed us with applause, and the instructors helped create a lively atmosphere.
Although I chose the 150-meter option, I couldn't compare it to other heights, so I might not have felt much difference in height. The instructors didn't provide any explanations about the height either. If you don't do the "japon," you generally won't get wet, but there might be splashes while moving on the boat, so it might be a good idea to prepare a towel if you're concerned.
Before disembarking, we paid tips. We each paid $10. After the tour, they took us back to the hotel where we were picked up. We participated in the 8 AM start and were back at the hotel around 9:30 AM, making it easy to plan our next activities. I also changed the pickup location specified at the time of booking through VELTRA customer service. I inquired in Japanese via email, and they responded promptly, which was great. Thank you very much.

飛び立つ前に写真を購入するかジャポンするか日本語で聞いてくれます。写真を購入する方はいましたがジャポンする方はいませんでした。ジャポンしなくても足だけ水につかるように上手くコントロールしてくれたりもします。
150メートルを選択しましたが水上なので高い場所にいるという恐怖感はなく、天気も良かったので最高の景色が楽しめました。船に降りるときも上手くコントロールしてくれ簡単に降りられます。船上で待っていた方も拍手で迎えていただきインストラクター含めて盛り上げてくれます。

I was able to quickly ascend to the sky and enjoy the best views! Since the water only reached my shins, I didn't need to change clothes, and it wasn't physically demanding, so it was easy! Since it's over the ocean, it's not scary at all, and I think even those with a fear of heights can manage it. However, the weather in Hawaii can change quickly, so it's better to have something to wear, and since you'll be on the boat while others are taking their turns, I recommend taking motion sickness medication. Haha! In any case, the scenery is amazing, and if you bring a camera, you can take pictures up there, making for great memories!

The driver for the pickup was English-speaking and very friendly, making the ride enjoyable. Once we arrived at the port, there was a female staff member who spoke Japanese, which was reassuring. Parasailing was incredibly refreshing! The captain of the boat was very skilled at maneuvering, and the crew took many wonderful photos with great creativity. The photos are available for an additional fee, but I think $30 for the SD card is quite reasonable. There are no changing facilities, so you'll have to return wet, so it's best to bring a towel to cover the car seat.

We participated as a couple in our 20s. Since we were staying at a hotel near the boat departure point, we walked there in our swimsuits. This time, we chose the 120-meter option. First, we received an explanation from a staff member who spoke Japanese before boarding the boat that came to pick us up. The crew seemed very accustomed to Japanese people, even making jokes in Japanese. Thanks to that, we had a great time during the transfer and while others were flying. Additionally, if you wish, they will take photos with a camera. You can check the content, and if you like it, they will sell you an SD card. We had nearly 70 photos taken. Since the boat was rocking, some photos were slightly out of focus, but we decided to purchase them right away! By the way, my wife has a fear of heights, but she said it was less scary than she expected and she had fun.
20代の夫婦で参加しました。
船の出発場所近くのホテルに宿泊していたためホテルから水着を着て歩いて向かいました。
今回は120メートルを選択。
まずは日本語の分かるスタッフの方の説明を受けて迎えに来た船に乗ります。
船のクルーは日本語でジョークを言ってくるぐらい日本人慣れしている感じでした。
おかげで移動中や他の人が飛んでいる間も楽しく過ごせます。
また、希望すればカメラで写真を撮ってくれます。内容を確認して気に入ればSDカードを販売してくれます。
70枚近く写真を撮ってもらいました。
揺れている船なのでピントの合っていない写真も少しありますが我々はすぐに購入を決めました!
ちなみに嫁は高所恐怖症ですが思っていたより怖さはなく楽しかったそうです。

We’ve been on snorkeling cruises in the past (some out of Waianae Boat Harbor) but never with this company. We visit Hawaii often (my wife was born and raised in the islands) we view island activities with a critical eye. This was a super dolphin/snorkel trip. The cruise is on a smaller boat, which has the advantage of offering a smaller group of people, a more intimate experience, and a little more adventurous ride - I like all three. Staff on these boats are there to 1. Offer safety 2. Offer service and 3. Offer fun and adventure. The Dolphin’s and You staff were excellent on all counts. I’ve seen the “fun” part on other boats get a little smarmy, but the staff on this boat really did a great job of encouraging people to participate and enjoy themselves without being overly “slick” or pushy. They also had some talented people who shared music I found enjoyable.
I take my own pictures with underwater stills and video. The videographer/photographer on the trip did a super job and was kind enough to show me some great shots while still attending to everyone on board. I wish I could say that about all the snorkeling/watching tours we’ve been on.
Overall I’d say this was a really good trip - for anyone - experienced or novice. Tips: If you have motion sickness, or aren’t sure if you have motion sickness, take dramamine. Do it. Take sunscreen - Use it. If you’re not familiar with photography (above and below water) leave your gear at home. Experience the trip and allow the professional the ship provides offer you some of the best shots you’ll ever see - most likely better images than you can take yourself. Fooling with gear and worrying about taking pictures, will detract from the memories you can make just being in the water and seeing the amazing things the crew will show you.
There are lifetime memories you can take away from a half-day trip like this. It might *seem* pricey to some, but I assure you that it is worth every cent and you’ll be ready for more.
Aloha Bruce! Thank you so much for your sincere 5-Star review.
We so appreciate you taking the time to offer this genuine feedback and to provide tips for other guests. We agree with your suggestions on all counts! Coming from a guest who has been on many tours and a photographer, this review means a lot. We invite you to come and try out our waterfall hike tour Nature and You or our circle-island tour Island and You on one of your trips back to the island, as well!
Mahalo and A Hui Hou Kākou!

This adventure was more than what we expected. We first boarded a boat that took us out to the submarine. We entered a small port hatch that lowered us into a surprisingly large submarine that held over 63 individuals. We dove to a depth of over 112 feet and saw all manor of marine life around sunken ships and airplanes. We experienced fish and sea turtles nestled among the wreckage along with eels along the coral. To say this was a unique experience was an understatement. How often do you get to go 100+ feet under water and see marine life in their natural inhabitant?

This is my second time using the service. I was late for the pickup, so I went directly to the meeting point, but thank you for accommodating me by switching to the 12 o'clock boat. The weather and the wind were perfect, and it became a really fun memory! I also enjoyed the promised "dobon" (splash) twice, which was a lot of fun!
2回目の利用です。
ピックアップに遅れてしまい
集合場所に直接向かいましたが、
12時発のボートに振り替えて対応してくれてありがとうございました。
天気も風も最高でとっても楽しい思い出になりました!
お約束のドボンも二回もしてもらって楽しかったです!

We gathered at the hotel entrance at 5:55 AM. Since it was June, which is typically a low season, there were about 20 participants, which the guide mentioned was about half the usual number. I felt that having a smaller group made the day more enjoyable.
We traveled by bus to the port (about an hour), and during that time, the guide's stories and videos were so interesting that there was no time to sleep. After waiting for about 15 minutes upon arrival at the port, we boarded the boat. The crew members were introduced, and we set off.
On this day, perhaps due to the strong winds, the waves were high, and the boat rocked quite a bit, causing a few people to feel unwell. About 20 minutes after departing, we had our first encounter with dolphins. We spotted a pod about 10 meters ahead, so we put on our goggles and fins and jumped in together. Unfortunately, during the first jump, the dolphins swam away, so we couldn't swim with them.
We returned to the boat and searched for another pod. About 15 minutes later, we found another group and jumped in again. This time, we successfully located the pod, and around 10 dolphins swam right beneath me. It was an unprecedented experience, and it felt truly moving to be swimming alongside them. We all shared our joy as we returned to the boat.
Next was snorkeling in search of sea turtles. After about a 20-minute boat ride, we jumped in at a spot where sea turtles are easy to find. Within just a few minutes, we spotted a turtle and observed it from a distance. After that, a professional photographer took various poses of us. We could purchase all the photos from the professional photographer on the way back (data for $60, USB for $65).
After returning to the boat, we had almost free time. We could eat the cheeseburgers made by the captain, snack on chips, do stand-up paddleboarding, or kayak. Most people chose to relax and eat on the boat.
Once everything was finished, we danced hula on the boat while heading back to the port. After arriving at the port, we took a short break before boarding the bus back to Waikiki. Most people were asleep on the bus.
The encounter rate with dolphins is said to be 90%, but we were fortunate to encounter them quickly, so I didn't feel the discomfort of the boat ride too much and was able to have a valuable experience.
5時55分にホテルの入り口に集合でした。
6月ということもあり、閑散期なのか、参加者は20名程度で、ガイドさん曰く、いつもの半分くらいの人数だったようです。1日を通じて少人数のほうが過ごしやすいと感じました。
みんなでバスで港へ移動(約1時間)し、その間もガイドさんのお話や映像が面白いので、寝る暇はありません。
港に着いてから15分くらい待機して、船に乗り込みます。クルーメンバーが紹介されて出発です。
この日は風が強いせいか波が高く、船はかなり揺れたので、体調が悪くなってしまうひとも2.3人いました。
船を出して20分くらいで1回目のイルカとの遭遇でした。10メートルくらい先にイルカの群れが見えたので、ゴーグルやフィンを付けてみんなで飛び込んで群れの方に向かいます。1回目の飛び込みではイルカの群れが逃げてしまったので、実際に一緒に泳ぐことはできませんでした。
船に戻って、また群れを探し、15分後くらいにまた群れを発見し飛び込みました。今度はうまく群れを見つけ、自分の泳ぐ真下を10頭くらいのイルカが泳いで通りました。今までにない体験で、ほんとに一緒に泳いでいるようで感動的な瞬間でした。みんなで喜びを分かち合いながら船に戻ります。
次はウミガメ探しのシュノーケリングです。20分くらい船で移動して、ウミガメの見つけやすいポイントでみんなで飛び込みます。飛び込んで、3分もしないうちにウミガメを見つけ、少し遠くから眺めます。その後、プロのカメラマンの方がいろいろなポーズで写真を撮ってくれます。プロのカメラマンの写真はは帰りに全て購入することができます。(データは60ドル、USBは65ドル)
みんなで船に戻った後はほぼ自由時間でした。船長が作るチーズバーガーを食べるもよし、チップスを食べるもよし、スタンディングパドルをするもよし、カヌーを漕ぐもよし、基本的には船上で食事をして休む人が多かったです。
すべてが終わって船でフラダンスを踊りながら港へ帰ります。
港へ着いてからは少し休憩してバスに乗り込み、ワイキキへ戻ります。バスの中では、ほとんどの方が眠っていました。
イルカとの遭遇率は90パーセントらしいですが、本当にすぐイルカとの遭遇できたので、船のつらさもそこまで感じずに、貴重な体験をすることができました。

It was unfortunately rainy and very windy, but I flew 150 meters! The guide was very friendly and provided a lot of laughs!
150 meters was surprisingly high, and I really got to experience the feeling of being a bird!
Next time, I hope for sunny weather and definitely want to challenge myself again!
あいにくの雨と強風でしたが150m飛んで来ました。ガイドさんがとても気さくな方で沢山笑いを提供してくれました!
150mは思いの外高く、鳥の気分をしっかり味わえます!
次は晴れることを願って、是非また挑戦したいと思います!
