All Reviews for Recommended for Kids 13-17

My husband and son participated. They said it was their first time surfing, and they had a lot of fun, even more than they expected. My husband said we definitely should do it, so next time, I would love for my daughter and me to join as well.

夫と息子が参加しました。
初めてのサーフィン、予想以上に乗れて
楽しかったと言ってました。
絶対やった方がいいと夫が言ってくれたので、
次回は私と娘も是非参加したいです。

We participated as a family of three, including our 13-year-old son. The pickup arrived a little before the designated time, just before 8 AM. The local Hawaiian staff spoke broken Japanese during the ride, but most of the communication was in English. We departed from a port that doesn't go to Ala Moana. There were two crew members, and they also spoke broken Japanese. The explanations were mainly in English, but there were no complicated instructions, so we felt at ease.

Besides our family, there were other Japanese families, newlyweds, foreign couples, and foreign families. Our family was called first, and while we were being set up, they offered to take pictures during the flight for $30. It was a sudden offer, and since I didn't have any cash on hand, I politely declined with a "No, thank you." Shortly after, we were gently released into the air. We soared high, with clear weather, even higher than the birds flying over the sea, and we could see Waikiki Beach from above, which was amazing.

Since holding a regular camera was risky, I brought an action camera like a GoPro and secured it to my chest, allowing me to capture great memories. The flight felt brief, and at the end, we were lightly dropped onto the water, which was a fun part of the experience. We touched down gently on the boat and were welcomed with applause from the waiting participants. While waiting, we could enjoy watching others fly.

Before leaving the ship, since we participated as three, we handed over $40 and disembarked. This was our first parasailing experience, and with the weather, location, and a height of 150 meters, it was an unprecedented experience that created wonderful memories for our whole family.

今までにない経験することができ、家族みんなで最高の思い出になりました。

On the day, it wasn't the time when the sandy beach was elevated, but we were able to enjoy ourselves thoroughly. The photos taken from above the water looked very atmospheric. The way the island was reflected was also very nice. I wish it had been a bit sunnier, but it wasn't too hot, and I was very satisfied.

当日は砂浜が浮き上がっている時間帯ではありませんでいたが、十分に楽しむことができました。海の水の上から、自分たちを移した写真が大変雰囲気良く映ってくれました。島を爆気にした映り方も大変雰囲気が良かったものでした。できればもう少し晴れていてほしかったですが、暑くも無く、大変満足です。

I experienced the Dolphin Swim Adventure, which involves riding on a dolphin. It was about an hour-long experience where we received explanations and played with the dolphins. Including the time for changing after the attraction, you should expect it to take about an hour and a half.

There were Japanese staff members who provided some information in advance about where and when to meet, as well as safety instructions for the attraction. The instructors for the attraction themselves hardly spoke Japanese, but thanks to the prior explanations, there were no issues.

In this course, you hold onto the dolphin's dorsal fin and get pulled for a few meters, and then the dolphin goes belly down, and you hold onto its flippers for a few meters as it pulls you along. You also get to touch the dolphin's belly and give it a kiss. The kids were absolutely thrilled.

The Sea Life Park itself is small, so I think half a day is sufficient. Without the attractions, you might find yourself bored until the pick-up time.

ドルフィンスイムアドベンチャーを体験してきました。一匹のイルカに
乗るコースです。説明を受けたり、実際にイルカと遊んだりして、賞味一時間の体験でした。アトラクション後の着替えを含めると一時間半はかかると思ってください。
日本人スタッフの方がいて、事前に何時にどこに集合とか、アトラクションでの注意事項とか
ある程度説明してくれます。アトラクション自体のインストラクターは、日本語はほぼ話せません。（ただ事前説明のおかげで困ることはないです）
このコースはイルカの背びれにつかまって数メートル、イルカが腹ばいになって、両ひれに
つかまって数メートルイルカに引っ張ってもらいます。
そのほかイルカのおなかを触ったり、キスしたりします。
子供も大喜びでした。
シーライフパーク自体は狭いので、半日もあれば十分だと思います。
アトラクションがないと、送迎時間まで退屈してしまうかも知れません。

We participated as a family of three and were able to fly together. While many companies have a weight restriction of "27 kilograms or more," this one allowed our child, who is in first grade and weighs 22 kilograms, to join. The crew was cheerful and fun, and I thought I would like to use this service again the next time we go to Hawaii. Since the boat can sway quite a bit, I recommend taking motion sickness medication in advance for those who are prone to getting seasick.

親子３人で参加し、３人一緒に飛ぶことができました。「体重27キロ以上」という制限のある会社が多い中、こちらは小１で体重２２キロの子供でもO.K.でした。クルーの方が明るくて楽しくて、また次にハワイに行く時もこちらでお願いしたいな、と思いました。ボートがけっこう揺れたりするので、乗り物酔いしやすい方は、あらかじめ酔い止めを飲んでいくことをおすすめします。

Watching the dolphins swim in a group, I could see the sand on the ocean floor clearly, and it was very beautiful. They also guided us to a spot where we could see sea turtles well, and the guide made sure to check in with each person to see if they could see everything, which I found impressive for the attention to detail in their service.

イルカが群れで泳ぐ姿を眺めると、海底の砂までよく見えて、とても綺麗でした。ウミガメもよく見えるスポットに案内してくださり、また、ガイドさんがひとりひとりにちゃんと見えたか声をかけていて、きめ細かなサービスに感心しました。

I've experienced it in Guam as well, but this time we had a longer time in the air, and the kids really enjoyed the water splash that they had been reluctant about. The crew was humorous, and I highly recommend it.

グアムでも体験していますが、今回は上空での時間も長く、子供達は嫌がっていた水ポチャもとても楽しくて良かったです。
クルーもユーモラスで、オススメです。

All in all a fantastic experience, well organised and the hosts were very engaging and knew thier stuff. Would highly recommend and would also go again or one of there other experiences. Thanks guys.

I was able to fully enjoy the ocean in Honolulu. The weather was great, and we had plenty of time for snorkeling, followed by a fun cruise. I even encountered the turtles I wanted to meet, which made it a wonderful experience. If I have the chance again, I would definitely like to participate.

ホノルルの海を満喫できました。
天気も良く、シュノーケルの時間もたっぷりあり、その後のクルージングも楽しかったです。
出会いたかった亀にも遭遇でき、大変楽しめました。
また機会があれば、是非参加したいです。

The weather was bad, but the sea was beautiful! We were able to see sea turtles, and even beginners could enjoy snorkeling. The driver was cheerful and could speak a little Japanese, which was great. (I gave a tip to the driver.)

天気は悪かったのですが、海は綺麗でした！
ウミガメも見ることができ、初心者でもシュノーケリングも楽しむことができました。
運転手の方も陽気な方で日本語も少しできるのでよかったです。
（運転手の方へチップは渡しました）

I couldn't meet the dolphins, but I had a great time. Since I had been learning hula dancing, I was really happy that they danced hula on the boat. It was also nice that they kept the atmosphere lively while we were searching for dolphins, allowing us to enjoy our time on board. After coming out of the water, some people were shivering in the wind, so I was glad I borrowed a wetsuit, but it was a bit tight, and it became uncomfortable after spending a long time on the boat. I regretted not getting a larger size. I wonder if someone brought bananas on board? I'll try again next time.

イルカに会えなかったけれども…
楽しめました。
私は、フラダンスを習っていた事もあり、船上でフラダンスを踊ってくれたのは、嬉しかったです。
イルカにを探している間、船上で楽しい時間を過ごせるよう、盛り上げてくれたのも良かったです。
海から上がり、濡れた身体で風を受けると、寒く震えている方もいましたのでウエットスーツを借りて良かったですが…少しキツかったので、長い時間船上で過ごしていると苦しかったです。もうひとサイズあげてもらえば良かったと…少し後悔。
誰か、船上にバナナを持ち込んでいたのかしら？
次回も、チャレンジして見ます。

I have been to Hawaii several times, but I signed up for this experience because I wanted to try something new.
The experience in Haleiwa and horseback riding.
I wished I had a bit more time in Haleiwa, but next time, I’ll enjoy the town at a leisurely pace! I’m already planning my next trip to Hawaii and looking forward to it.
Horseback riding was fun as I felt like I was giving my own commands, but…
I was a bit surprised when I witnessed a child fall off because the saddle slipped.
My horse bit the back of the horse in front, and that horse kicked with its hind legs! It was quite thrilling.
(I’m glad there were no serious injuries.)

ハワイには、今まで何度か行ったことがありましたが、初めての経験をしたくて、申し込みました。
ハレイワと乗馬の体験。
ハレイワの時間が、もう少し欲しかったけれども、次は、ゆっくりハレイワの街を楽しもう！と、次回のハワイ旅行計画を立て楽しんでいます。
乗馬も自分で指示を出して乗馬をしている感じがあり、楽しかったですが…
馬の鞍がズレて子供が落馬をしたのを目撃したので、ちょっとビックリ。
私の馬が前の馬のお尻を噛み、前の馬が後ろ足で蹴り！と、ドキドキもありました。
(おおきな怪我が無かったので良かったです)

The initial itinerary mentioned, "You can enjoy snorkeling and experiential learning, and see the fish living in Hawaii's coral reefs!" However, there was absolutely no snorkeling involved. I had thought that I would be taught how to snorkel and see the coral reefs and fish before playing with the dolphins, so I was disappointed given the high price.

However, the trainer who explained everything was very nice and provided a fun explanation. Here are the details of what we did:

First, we received an explanation from the trainer about the precautions for playing with the dolphins and their characteristics. After that, we went to the beach and learned about sea turtle nesting. We were also taught about the types of marine mammals and fed lettuce to the sea turtles in the facility. Then, we were able to touch, kiss, and feed the dolphins.

While I was satisfied with the opportunity to play with the dolphins, I had expected snorkeling to be part of the experience. Therefore, I think it would be better not to include snorkeling in the itinerary details if that is not part of the activity.

当初の日程詳細では『シュノーケリングと体験学習、ハワイのサンゴ礁に住む魚たちを見ることができます！』とありましたが、シュノーケリングについては全くありませんでした。
私はシュノーケリングも教えてもらってサンゴ礁や魚を見たりしてからイルカと遊べるとのかと思っていたので、値段が高かっただけにがっかりしました。
しかし説明してくれた担当のトレーナーさんはとても良い方で楽しく説明してくれました。
私たちが行った事の詳細は。
まずトレーナーさんからイルカと遊ぶための注意点、イルカの特徴などの説明を受け、その後浜辺へ行き浜辺でウミガメの産卵について学びました。
そして海の哺乳類の種類について教えていただき、施設内にいるウミガメへレタスを餌付け。
そしてイルカを触ったり、キスしたり餌付けしたりできました。
イルカと遊べるという事だけなら満足ですが、シュノーケリングもあるものかと思っていたので、この内容なら日程詳細にシュノーケリングの記載はしない方がいいかと思います。

My first experience with parasailing was amazing. After arriving in the morning, I took part in the activity, and even though I had been sound asleep on the way to the departure port (about 10 minutes from the hotel), I was wide awake by the time they put on the equipment. I felt a bit anxious while waiting my turn, but once I was pulled up high into the sky, with Waikiki below me, I felt no fear at all and was completely moved by the experience. The guides also helped ease my tension a lot.

初体験のパラセーリング、朝到着してからのアクティビティで、出発の港(ホテルから１０分ほど・・・)迄、爆睡してたのに、装備を付ける頃か目はパッチリ、ちょっと不安で順番待ち、
でも、引っ張られて空高く上がると、ワイキキを眼下に、恐怖なんか微塵も感じず、感動しまくりでした。又、ガイドの人達が随分緊張をやわらげてくれました。

Taken on a boat in an incredible blue Pacific ocean bay, after a few minutes the crew makes you feel like chilling with humor and smiles. Then time for the scooter, they make sure you'll see the Marine life from up close, and while you're on the boat, they provide gear to scuba dive with the people in the scooters, food and drinks on the bridge, and pictures at the end. A must do!

Everyobe had an amazing time....very friendly staff and great place to visit !!!!!

The weather was nice, and I was looking forward to it, but for some reason, I couldn't see any dolphins. The staff seemed a bit disappointed too. However, all the staff were very kind, and since they spoke Japanese, I was able to participate in the tour with peace of mind.

I will try again next time! Thank you!

お天気も良く、期待していましたが、なぜかイルカにあえませんでした。
スタッフの方も少しがっかりしてたようです。
でも、スタッフの方は、みんなやさしく、日本語も通じたので
安心してツアーに参加できました。

次回またチャレンジします！
ありがとうございました

The day I participated was a bit windy, but the weather was nice, so the view was amazing! During the parasailing, time flew by, and I wished it could have lasted a little longer.

参加した日はちょっと風が強かったですが、お天気は良かったので眺めは最高でした♪♪パラセーリングをしてる間はあっという間だったのでもう少し長かったらなぁと思いました。

It was fun! It felt great! We are a couple with two children in the fourth grade. We jumped two at a time. The view was nice, and the height wasn't scary at all. The kids were very satisfied. The crew was also very accommodating and helped us with all the gear. They took a lot of photos with a digital SLR camera, and there are videos as well. It will be a wonderful memory. The pick-up and drop-off were on time. I'm glad we participated.

楽しかった〜。気持ち良かった〜。夫婦と小学校4年生の子供2人。2人ずつ飛びました。景色も良いし、高さも怖くありません。子供たちも大満足。船員さんの対応もよく、全て装着してくれました。デジタル一眼レフの写真もたくさん撮ってくれます。動画もあります。とても良い記念になります。送迎も時間正確。参加して良かったです。

It ended up being surprisingly uneventful and not as scary as I had thought. The staff was friendly and spoke Japanese. However, I had a hard time finding the pickup vehicle. The name I was given was not written on the car, and I finally met the driver after contacting the tour company (which only spoke English). Tips are not included in the tour price, so you need to bring cash for that.

思っていたほど恐怖感なく意外とあっけなく終わってしまいました。スタッフは親切で日本語も通じました。ただ、ピックアップの車が見つけにくく苦労しました。聞いていた名前は車に書かれておらずツアー会社(英語のみ)に連絡をしてやっとお迎えのドライバーに会えました。チップはツアー代金に含まれていないのでそのぶん現金を持参する必要があります。

Since it was my first time, I went for 90 meters, which was high enough. But I might have been okay with going higher. In the end, I ended up with my butt in the sea, so it's better to participate in a swimsuit.

初めてだったんで90mにしましたが、充分高い。でももっと高くてもよかったかも。最後はお尻を海につけられてしまったので、水着で参加がいいですね。

Unlike diving, you can easily dive down to 30-40 meters and see the blue sea where sunlight doesn't reach. The sight of the submarine emerging from the ocean is breathtaking. The cruise is enjoyable and feels great, so I recommend it for families.

ダイビングと違って、気軽に30-40mまで潜れて、太陽に光の届かない青い海が見れました。潜水艦が海から飛び出してくるところは圧巻です。クルーズも楽しめて気持ちがいいので、家族連れにはおすすめです。

I would love to do this activity again! It was a unique experience and the crew/divers were very friendly and helpful. Definitely worth the money!

White sandy beaches, crystal-clear sea, welcoming turtles, and dolphins jumping next to the boat.
I was satisfied even before entering the water♪

The underwater world was beautiful, with sharks, turtles, and various fish.
I was very satisfied.

白い砂浜、透き通る海、出迎える亀、船の横でジャンプするイルカ
海にはいる前でも満足♪

海の中は綺麗で、サメや亀、いろんな魚がいました
大変満足

Competent crew and very friendly. Website preparation is excellent.

Captain Dan and his first mate were professional, efficient and gracious. My 3 kids (17,15,12) and I had a great parasail experience with X-treme. We got every bit of airtime we paid for, and then some. I was thoroughly impressed with the Captain's dexterous maneuvering as he dipped us in and out of the ocean. The first mate got everyone clipped in and clipped out so smoothly that there was almost zero down time in between us parasailers.

I have joined the Captain Bob snorkel since the first time I went to Hawaii. It was so consistent every time. And this time we have a group of 11 people going and everyone has a good time even though the sandbar water level is a little bit high but the whole crew working on the boat are so sincere which makes a big difference on the atmosphere of the activity. Excellent

The 3 guys did an excellent job going over safety an simple instructions in the classroom, on the beach the were patient and helpful. I was satisfied with the results!

We participated as a couple.
They provided transportation, and there are staff members who speak Japanese, so those who are worried about English can feel at ease!
The lessons are given with simple Japanese instructions, so there are no problems at all.
There are multiple opportunities to catch waves, so I believe anyone can learn to stand up!
Finally, we also received a group photo at the end.
We made wonderful memories.

カップルでの参加でした。
送迎も頂き、日本語を話せるスタッフもいるので英語で心配な方でも安心です！
レッスンも簡単な日本語で指示してもらえるので全く問題ありません。
何度も波に乗るチャンスがあるので誰でも立てるようになると思います！
最後にグループで1枚写真の入ったデータももらえますよ。
素敵ないい思い出ができました。

I tried it at 150m, but we were the only Japanese participants, and the guide mostly spoke English, which made me a bit anxious. However, once I took off, the situation changed completely! Not only could I enjoy the breathtaking views of Hawaii from the sky, but the beautiful ocean was truly "Blue Hawaii"!

150ｍでトライしたのですが、参加者で日本人が自分たちだけで、ガイドさんもほとんど英語しか話さないので少し不安な気持ちもありました。
しかし、いざ舞い上がると状況は一変！空からハワイの絶景を一望できるだけでなく、美しい海がまさしく「ブルーハワイ」でした！
