I participated in parasailing at the strong request of a friend. The staff were cheerful and efficient. We went up into the air from the boat, and when returning, if you wish, you can touch the water before getting back on the boat. It looked like a lot of fun. The ride was comfortable, and it was enjoyable to watch others take their aerial strolls. I think it would be a lot of fun for those who like heights.
友達のたっての希望でパラセーリングに参加しました。
スタッフの方は陽気でテキパキ。
船の上から空中に上がって、戻るときに希望すれぱ海に一度着水してから船に戻れます。楽しそうでした。
乗り心地悪くないし、他の方が空中散歩をするのを見るのも楽しかったけど、

I went parasailing for the first time and it was so much fun! The boat sways quite a bit, so my friend took some motion sickness medication and that helped a lot!
During the parasailing, Justin from the crew was very thorough in preparing everything, and we were able to take photos, which made it really comfortable and enjoyable. I definitely want to do this again when I go to Hawaii! Thank you so much!

The pickup time was accurate, and although the driver was of Japanese descent and couldn't speak Japanese, we had a very enjoyable time during the ride to the pickup point.
The parasailing lasted just under 10 minutes, but it felt like we were flying in the sky for much longer. The instructor playfully dropped us just enough to touch the water. It wasn't like a roller coaster with a sudden drop; instead, it was a fun journey through the vast sky!
ピックアップの時間も正確で、運転手の方も日系の方で日本語は話せませんでしたが、乗り場までの道中とても楽しい時間を過ごせました。
パラセーリングも10分弱の時間でしたが、もっと長く空を飛んでるような感じがしました。インストラクターのノリで海に足が着くくらいにおとされたり。ジェットコースターのようなフワッとする感じもなく、楽しい大空旅行ができました!

I hoped to go up to 150 meters, but I wanted to go even higher!
I asked to have photos taken, but it seems you have to say it right before you jump, so they didn't take any, which is a bit disappointing... However, I was able to get some photos because I handed my iPhone to a college student on the same team, so that was great!

My daughter really wanted to try surfing, so we signed up together for a challenge. I had done bodyboarding when I was younger, but this was my first time surfing. Thanks to the instructor's great teaching, I was able to ride the waves in no time. At 57 years old, I usually don't do any sports, but I didn't feel tired or sore, and I made some wonderful memories. Additionally, they burned the photos from the lesson onto a CD and even gave us T-shirts, so I'm really glad I participated. I hope to join again next year at a higher level.
娘がどうしてもサーフィンをしたいと言うので、2人で申し込みチャレンジしました。私は若いころボディボードをしていましたが、サーフィンは初めてでしたが、インストラクターの教え方が良かったおかげで、あっという間に、波に乗れました。57歳で普段何もスポーツをしてませんでしたが、疲れ、筋肉痛もなく、楽しい思い出ができました、。また、レッスン中の写真をCDRに焼付して頂いたり、Tシャツまで頂き、本当に参加して良かった。来年はレベルアップした形で参加したいと思います。

It was my first time surfing, and I was very satisfied! From the pickup to the way of riding the waves, I received thorough support, which allowed me to ride with confidence! Even as a complete beginner, I was able to do it, and since they teach in Japanese, those who are not confident in their language skills need not worry!
The weather was cloudy, but it wasn't too cold, and they also lent me a rash guard and shoes, making it comfortable! However, I got seasick from the waves, so I recommend that those who are prone to motion sickness take some medication before going.
They also took photos, creating wonderful memories of Hawaii. Thank you very much!

The tour was great, George our tour guide provided an up close and personal look at the behind the scene props and WWII History of the Ranch. It was fun to see and stand next to some of the Jurassic Park sets which were used during the actual filming. Afternoon cruise was OK, but it would have been better if it sailed out to some of the sights highlighted like the Chinese Hat and the Island where Gilligan's Island was filmed. Food at their Buffet was very good and plentiful. All was well worth the money paid and I would do it again.

I participated in the 150m course with my wife. All the other participants were foreigners, and of course, the boat staff were also foreigners. Most of the explanations were in English, but there were no issues with putting on the harnesses. Once we got out to sea, we moved out to the open water and took turns going up into the air. Since the ocean was all blue, even at the highest point, I didn't feel much height, and there was hardly any sense of fear, but the view was amazing!
The operating company mentioned to bring a larger towel (like a bath towel), and I recommend borrowing a bath towel from the hotel if possible. We each brought our own face towels, but I wished we had brought a larger towel. Also, the boat staff took pictures, and you can buy them later on an SD card (it was $30 in cash and $35 by card), so if you want those, it's a good idea to bring that amount of money.
150mのコースを妻とふたりで参加しました。
他の参加者は全員外国の方で、船のスタッフさんももちろん外国人。
説明とかもほとんど英語でしたが、ハーネスを着けたりするのには別段支障はありませんでした。
海に出ると沖まで移動して順番に上空へ。
一面青い海だったので一番高いところでも高さはそこまで感じず、怖いという感覚はほとんどありませんでしたが景色は最高でした♪
運営会社から言われていた準備物に、大きめのタオル(バスタオル等)ってありましたが、できればホテルのバスタオルを借りて持って行くことをおすすめします。私たちは自分たちのフェイスタオルをそれぞれ持っていきましたが、大きなタオルを持っていけば良かったと思いました…
あと、船のスタッフさんが写真を撮ってくれて後でSDカードに入れたものを買うことができるので(キャッシュで30ドル、カードだと35ドルでした)、欲しい方はその分のお金は持っていった方がいいです。

I was worried about the guide not being able to speak Japanese, but the lively atmosphere made it enjoyable even without a common language.
After being driven to the location, we were quickly put on the boat, and after a brief explanation, we took turns flying for about 10 minutes each. Before I could even feel nervous, we were off (laughs).
At the end, there’s a surprise where your feet lightly touch the sea, but they make sure to lower you safely onto the boat.
I asked for the 150m option, and instead of fear, I was filled with exhilaration.
Unlike other tours, there was no awkward waiting around, and we could quickly do what we wanted and return, making it a great value without wasting time.
For $30, they take photos and provide the data, and with such a playful guide, it’s definitely worth it to ask for them. Compared to some parks where a single photo costs around 1000 yen, you get several shots here, making it far more cost-effective.
Overall, it was amazing, and I absolutely recommend it!

Good points:
The bus is large, so it's less likely to make you feel sick.
It's sufficient for elementary school lower grades.
You can feed the birds as much as you want.
Bad points:
Each guardian needs to be a separate adult, which is not suitable for families with many children. I was charged a change fee of 99 USD when I requested a change.
The tour price is high.
The facilities are old, and the food is not great. I should have brought my own.
The meeting time for the return was at 14:30, which was busy and tiring.
Result:

Waking up early was tough for me (since I'm not good at it), but I was very satisfied to meet a pod of dolphins. We were able to snorkel with about 20 dolphins for around 20 minutes (it might have been longer!).
On the bus to the port, a Japanese female tour guide taught us a lot about dolphins, which was very informative. It was a bit cold since it was February, but I rented a wetsuit for $10, so I managed to avoid catching a cold on the way back.
We got seasick and felt a bit unwell during the trip, but we still managed to have fun! A professional photographer took pictures during the tour, and you can purchase them for $50. The photographer was taking photos of participants on the boat and diving to capture shots at the dolphin points. We didn't buy any this time since we couldn't check what kind of photos were taken before purchasing, but many other participants ended up buying them!
Whether the weather is good or how many dolphins you encounter depends on luck that day, but I've never been on a dolphin tour where I didn't see any, so you can be sure you'll have a high chance of encountering them! It was a fun tour!
早起きが大変でした(苦手なので)が、イルカの群れと会うことができて、大満足でした。
20頭くらいのイルカの群れと一緒に、20分くらい(もっと長かったかもしれない)シュノーケリングできました!
港までのバスの中では、ツアーガイドの日本人女性の方にイルカのことを詳しく教えてもらい勉強になりました。
2月だったので少し寒かったですが、ウエットスーツを10ドルで借りたので何とか風邪は引かずに帰って来れました。
私たちは船酔いし、途中気分が悪くなってしまいましたが、それでも楽しむことができました!
ツアーの様子は、プロのカメラマンさんが写真に撮ってくれていて、50ドルで購入することができます。カメラマンさんは、船の上では参加者にカメラを向けてくれていましたし、イルカのポイントでは潜って撮っていました。どんな写真が撮れているのか購入前に確認できなかったちめ、私たちは今回は購入しませんでしたが、他の参加者の皆さんは結構購入されている方が多かったです!
天気が良いかや、どのくらいイルカと出会えるかは当日の運次第ですが、イルカのツアーでこれまでに出会えなかったことはないので、高確率で出会えること間違いなしです!
楽しいツアーでしたー!

I signed up for Dolphin Aloha, and both my 10-year-old and 2-year-old sons had a great time. The site mentioned to bring sandals and towels, but they turned out to be unnecessary for this course (there are a few moments where you might get a little wet, but they inform you in advance).
Before the course, the staff checks both hands. My wife was a bit worried because she had nail art, but they checked one spot on each hand, and since there were few protrusions and it was coated, we received the OK after the check.
Cameras and phones are not allowed, so you can purchase photos taken by the staff later (optional). A passport is required for credit card use, but a photo of it was also acceptable.
The course was organized into a group of only Japanese participants, and the guidance was provided in Japanese, which made it easy to participate with peace of mind. During regular periods, about half of the participants are Japanese, and during busy periods, it's about 80%.
ドルフィンアロハを申し込みましたが、10歳及び2歳の息子、二人とも楽しんでいました。
サイトにはサンダルとタオル持参とかいてあったのですが、このコースでは結果的に不要でした(少し濡れる場面はありますが、事前に言っていただけます)
コース前には両手を係の方がチェックされます。妻がネイルアートをしていたので少し心配していたのですが、両手一カ所ずつで、突起も少なくコーティングもしてあったからか、チェックしていただいた上でOKをいただきました。
カメラ、携帯が使えないので、係の方が捕られた写真をあとで購入する形です(任意)クレジットカード利用時にはパスポートが必要ですが、写真でもOKでした。
コースは日本人だけのグループが作られて、日本語で案内が行われ、安心して参加できました。通常期で半分、繁忙期だと8割が日本人とのことです。

I had a reservation for 16:00, but there was heavy rain and strong winds during the day. When I inquired around 13:00, I was told that the event was still scheduled to proceed as planned, so I waited in my swimsuit in the cold at the pickup time.
After waiting, I was called to the lobby, and sure enough, I received a cancellation notice from the operating company.
I think it was too late to notify us of the cancellation after the pickup time had passed. Even though the weather in Hawaii can change quickly, I would expect a decision to be made at least by the morning of the day. Thanks to this, I wasted my time.

While there is an element of luck involved since it's nature, I believe the 90% encounter rate is thanks to the expertise of the renowned Dolphin University.
About ten minutes into the boat ride, we had our first dive, where we only encountered a sea turtle, but during the second dive, we encountered dolphins. We saw dozens of them and were able to swim alongside them (though we couldn't dive since we were wearing life jackets).
We were also able to get very close to the sea turtles. While snorkeling, we were surrounded by many fish. We even got to go whale watching, and we clearly saw the tail of a whale, which is said to bring happiness when spotted.
It was the best experience, one that I doubt I will ever have again.
My wife mentioned that she found it tough because she can't swim and is sensitive to the cold, but this is a tour I want to participate in every time I come to Hawaii.
If you prepare well with cold weather gear (dry towels, long sleeves, wetsuits) and measures for seasickness, I think it will be an extremely satisfying tour.
Even if you don't see dolphins, the guide will keep the atmosphere lively, so I believe you'll have a fun time without a doubt.
I can confidently recommend this tour.
自然相手なので、運の要素はありますが、遭遇率90%は、名門イルカ大学さんの腕だと思います。
乗船10分程で、一回目のダイブ、そこではイルカには会えずにウミガメのみ、二回目のダイブでイルカと遭遇。何十匹と見えて、しかも一緒に泳ぐ(ライフジャケット来てるので、潜ることはできない)ことはできました。
ウミガメも目と鼻の先まで近づくことができました。
スノーケリングでは沢山の魚に囲まれます。
ホエールウォッチングも出来て、見ると幸せになるというクジラの尻尾までくっきりと見えました。
二度とこんな体験は出来ないだろう、というくらい最高の体験でした。
嫁は、泳げないのと、寒さに弱いのとで、もうきつい、と言ってましたが、私はハワイに来るたびには必ず参加したいツアーです。
防寒対策(乾いたタオル、長袖、ウェットスーツ)と船酔い対策をしっかりしておけば極めて満足感の高いツアーになるのではないでしょうか。
たとえ、イルカに会えなくとも、ガイドさんが盛り上げてくれるので、楽しい時間になることは間違いないと思います。
自信を持ってオススメできるツアーです。

It was exactly what we wanted to do and I loved that it did not take up the entire day so we still had plenty of time to get get lunch and spend the rest of the day on the beach :)

I attempted the 120m jump. The day I had reserved was canceled due to bad weather, but they were able to reschedule for a time that worked for us the next day! The pickup was also on time.
The boat does sway quite a bit. It feels nice once you're flying, but those who are sensitive to swinging like on a swing set might feel a bit nauseous.
When I actually flew, it felt like a very long time, and I was able to enjoy the scenery thoroughly.
120mに挑戦しました。予約していた日が悪天候だったため、当日にキャンセルになってしまったのですが、翌日の私たちの都合にあった時間に変更していただけました!ピックアップも時間通りでした。
船は結構揺れます。飛んでからも気持ちいいですが、ブランコのような揺れが苦手な方は少し酔うかもしれません。
実際飛んでみるととても長い時間のように感じて、十分景色を楽しむこともできました。

This was my first time participating. From a distance, the 110m height looked quite intimidating, but once I actually tried it, I felt a rush of excitement and had a lot of fun. Since we were in a small boat and the waves were a bit high, I recommend that those who are prone to motion sickness take some medication before joining. The crew members were also a fun bunch, and they made the activity enjoyable with their lively spirit. They provide explanations in Japanese, so I think you can relax and enjoy yourself. It was a bit cloudy and chilly, so I think having a jacket or a bath towel would be helpful. They also accommodate requests like wanting to stay completely dry or wanting to get your legs wet. I would love to participate again!
初めての参加でした。
110mで遠くから見るとかなり高いのでドキドキしましたが、実際にやってみるとかなり興奮し、楽しかったです。
小さなボートでやや波も高かったので、酔いやすい方は酔い止めを飲んで参加されることをお勧めします。
クルーのお兄さんたちも愉快な人たちで、ノリノリの中で楽しくアクティビティを行ってくれました。日本語で説明してくれるので安心して楽しめると思います。
曇りでやや寒かったですが、上着やバスタオルがあるといいと思います。全く濡れないようにしたい、脚まで浸かりたい、などの要望も聞いてくれます。また参加したいです!

It's a zipline experience in a beautiful farm that stretches as far as the eye can see. I was torn between this and Kualoa, but considering just the zipline, I think this was the better choice. In between ziplines, you cross suspension bridges and climb ropes. Since this place focuses solely on ziplining, if you want to combine it with other activities like horseback riding or jeeping, Kualoa might be a better option. When I went, there were no staff who spoke Japanese, and I was the only Japanese person, but the staff and other participants were friendly. According to the cheerful bus driver, there were even Japanese grandmothers who couldn't speak any English but participated using gestures. Since I was there alone, a family of five from Australia looked out for me, and other American participants often struck up conversations. Even if your English is limited, it's perfectly fine to initiate conversation or ask the staff for help when needed.
見渡す限り広がる美しい農場の中でのジップラインです。クアロアと迷いましたが、ジップラインだけで考えると、こちらで良かったと思います。ジップラインの合間に、吊り橋を渡ったり、登り棒ならぬ登り紐を登ったりします。ここは、ジップラインだけを遂行しているので、乗馬やジープなど、他のアクティビティと合わせたい場合は、クアロアが良いかもしれません。私が行った時は、日本語が話せるスタッフは辞めてしまっていて、日本人も私だけでしたが、スタッフや回りの参加者はフレンドリーでした。陽気なバスの運転手さんによると、英語が全く話せない日本人のお婆さん達も身振り手振りで参加したりしていたみたいです。私は、一人参加でしたので、オーストラリアの家族5人が気にかけてくれて、他のアメリカ人参加者もよく話かけてくれました。片言でも、自分から話かけたり、助けて欲しい時は遠慮なくスタッフに声をかければ大丈夫ですよ。

We had a wonderful time on the trip. The snorkel is the first part of the event. There were numerous fish and handful of large turtles. Then there is a brief sail around the area. On our sail we encountered humpback whales and a massive pod of dolphins.
I realize, to a degree the whole adventure is a crap shoot. Someone that encountered no turtles, whales, or dolphins might rate the trip less highly, but we felt this was well worth our time and highly recommend.

Thank you for participating.
The dolphins appearing right in front of us might have been a result of Ishii-san's feelings being conveyed.
Please come to see us again.
