Oahu
We participated as a family of five, and I had been wanting to join for a while. This time, I went with my daughter and grandchildren. I prayed to meet dolphins as we set out, and I was satisfied with the crew's cheerful demeanor and thoughtful arrangements for everyone. We encountered many dolphins, even twice!
Later, during snorkeling, we were lucky to meet a turtle. It would have been perfect if the water clarity had been better, but unfortunately, it was a bit disappointing. There were various activities like kayaking that kept us entertained. The hamburgers for lunch were surprisingly delicious; I thought one per person was not enough, and I wished for another because they were that good. The family photo taken when we disembarked became a wonderful memory. I highly recommend this for families and couples.
家族5人で参加しました、以前から一度参加したいなと思っていたところ今回は娘、孫たちと一緒に参加しました。イルカに会えるかなと祈りながら出向でした、クルーの人たちの底抜けに明るい、参加皆に心憎い計らいに満足し、たくさんのイルカに出会いました、2回も、、
その後シュノーケリングの最中亀に出会いラッキーでした、海の透明度がもっと良かったら最高でしたが残念ながら透明度はもう一つ残念、カヤック体験などいろいろメニューがあり私たちを退屈させませんでした、お昼のハンバーガーも予想以上に美味しく良かったと思います、1人1個なのでもう1個あればいいなーと思いました、それほど美味しかったです。下船の時家族写真は良い記念になりました。。家族ずれカップルにお勧めです。

I dove close to a group of dolphins that were napping!!
Did I go to see the dolphins? Or did I go to be seen by the dolphins?
I was surrounded by dolphins like a small fish?!
Dolphins were everywhere, to the side and below.
I was also able to see rays, turtles, and a large number of tropical fish up close, which made me very satisfied♪
I will go again!!
お昼寝中のイルカの群れに近付きダイブ!!
イルカを見に行ったのか?
イルカに見られに行ったのか?
まるで小魚のようにイルカに囲まれました?!
横にも下にもイルカだらけ。
エイや亀 大量の熱帯魚も間近に見られ大満足♪

It sounds like you were surrounded by dolphins to the point where you might have thought they were there to see you! The dolphins must have been welcoming you!

I'm generally not good with heights and I'm not a big fan of roller coasters, but I felt safe while parasailing and it was really fun to feel like I was floating. Although Japanese wasn't spoken, there were other Japanese people around, so it wasn't a problem at all. Everything went according to schedule without any issues, which was great.
高いところが基本苦手でジェットコースターもあまり好きではないのですがパラセーリングは安心して乗れて浮いてる感じがしてすごく楽しかったです
日本語は通じないですが他にも日本の方もいて全然苦にならなかったです 時間も予定通りでトラブルなくよかったです
The pickup was early at 6:05 AM, which is quite a start. Starting next year, due to changes in American law, it may become illegal to approach dolphins within 100 yards, so there’s a possibility that the tour itself may be discontinued. I thought this might be my last chance to swim with wild dolphins in Waikiki this year, so I signed up. There were no changing rooms or showers, which was inconvenient, but the fun far outweighed that. We discovered a pod of dolphins and immediately jumped in at the guide's instruction. If you hesitate, you might miss them; dolphins are very fast. It doesn’t feel like swimming with dolphins; it feels like dolphins are zooming past you at high speed around and below you. After watching the dolphins, we enjoyed super fun snorkeling surrounded by colorful fish, and we were able to see sea turtles up close (but touching them is not allowed). You can also enjoy kayaking and stand-up paddleboarding. The crew and staff were very friendly, and we had a great time playing in the ocean. We were able to return by early afternoon, so we had plenty of time for sightseeing afterward.
ピックアップは早朝6時5分と早いスタートです。来年からアメリカの法律が変わりイルカに100ヤード以内近づけなくなるためツアー自体が無くなる可能性もあります。ひょっとして今年がワイキキで野生イルカと泳げる最後のチャンスかもと思い申し込みました。着替える所もシャワーもありません、不自由と言えば不自由でしたがそれを上回る楽しさでした。イルカの群れを発見しガイドの指示で直ぐ飛び込みます。ぼやぼやしてると見損ないます、イルカはとても速いです。イルカと一緒に泳ぐという感覚ではありません、自分の周りや下を猛スピードでイルカが通り過ぎる感じです。イルカ見学の後は色とりどりの魚に囲まれての超楽しいシュノーケリング、ウミガメもタッチできる距離で見れました(タッチはNGです)。カヤックやスタンダップパドルも楽しめます。クルー、スタッフたちはとてもフレンドリーで陽気な海遊びが十分楽しめました。昼過ぎには帰れるので午後も十分観光できました。

I had been looking forward to this place for a long time. It was sunny, but as soon as we got on the boat, it started to rain... Fortunately, it stopped quickly. What impressed me the most was the service. The staff promptly wiped down the benches that had gotten wet from the rain. I didn't expect that at all since I was in my swimsuit and it was overseas, so I was really happy about it. Also, surprisingly, the boat's restroom was clean!
In addition to seeing sea turtles, we also spotted manta rays (which are said to be rare), and I was very satisfied with the snorkeling experience. The staff were all kind and entertaining. The lunch was delicious too; the captain grilled hamburgers on the boat, which made for great burgers.
The only downside was that the sandbar was a bit deep. But that can change from day to day, so I just had bad luck... I'm thinking about trying again next year. I would like to go with the same tour company as this time.
前々から行きたかった場所でとても楽しみにしていました。晴れていたのですが船に乗って早々雨が…
でもすぐ止んだので良かったです。でもここで良かったのはサービス。雨に濡れたベンチをスタッフの方がきちんと拭いて下さりました。水着だしましてや海外だし全くそんな事期待していなかったのにとても嬉しかったです。また船のお手洗いも意外にもキレイ!!
海ガメに加えマンタも見られ(マンタはたまにしか見られないそう)シュノーケリングも大満足。
スタッフの方もみなさん親切で面白い♪ランチもキャプテンが船で焼いてくれるハンバーグを使ったハンバーガーで美味しかったです。
今回残念だったのは少しサンドバーが深かった事。でもこれは日によって変わるし運が悪かった…
また来年チャレンジしよっかな。
今回と同じツアー会社さんで行きたいです。
This was my first time participating. I was sleepy from the early morning pickup, but I took a short nap in the car while receiving instructions and explanations about the tour. We arrived at the port around 8:00. After a restroom break and applying sunscreen, we boarded the boat. There was an introduction of the captain, staff, and photographer, followed by a departure ceremony. Each of us held a plumeria flower and sang the song "Eho Mai" as we set off to search for dolphins. After about 30 to 40 minutes, we spotted a pod of dolphins, and with the captain's "Go!" signal, everyone jumped in!
However, the pod quickly disappeared, and we had to wait. After that, the dolphins were hard to find, and we extended our search by 90 minutes. Once my wet body started to feel cold in the wind, the captain gave the "Go!" signal again!
It was an indescribably mystical sight. Right in front of us was a pod of dolphins, and there were about 30 to 40 of them nearby, both below and in the distance. We were able to see the dolphins at a very close range.
This time, it took a while to find the dolphins, so we couldn't do any other activities, but I still made wonderful memories. I'm really glad I participated. Thank you very much!

今回初めての参加でした。早朝のピックアップで眠かったのですが、車の中でしばしの仮眠&ツアーの注意点や説明などを受けました。港に着いたのが8:00頃でした。トイレ休憩&日焼け止めを塗ったりと準備をして、いざ乗船。船長さん、スタッフの方々、カメラマンさんの紹介などがあり、出航の儀式へ。各々プルメリアの花を持ち、エホマイの歌を歌いイルカ探しへ。3、40分経った頃、イルカの群れを見つけ、船長さんの「Go!」を合図に皆で入水!!
しかし、イルカの群れはすぐに居なくなってしまい、一旦待機へ。その後、なかなかイルカが現れずに、通常より90分延長してのイルカ探し。一度濡れた体が風に触れ、ガクガクブルブル冷え込んできた頃、再び船長さんのGo!!サイン!!
もう、言葉にならない程の神秘的な景色。目の前にはイルカの群れ、下も前も遠くにも、3、40頭は居たのかな?かなりの至近距離でイルカを見ることが出来ました。
今回はイルカ探しに時間がかかり、他のアクティビティーが出来ませんでしたが、それでも素敵な思い出が出来ました。本当に参加して良かったです。ありがとうございました☆

I signed up for the 150m and participated while feeling nervous about the high price, but the moment I floated up, the boat quickly got farther away, and I didn't feel scared at all. It really felt like I was flying, and it was incredibly enjoyable! The flying time was just right—not too long and not too short—so I was very satisfied. I want to experience it again when I go to Hawaii!
150mに申込み、高すぎたんじゃないかとドキドキしながら参加しましたが、ふわっと浮き上がった瞬間にどんどんボートが遠くなるのに、怖さは全く感じませんでした。本当に飛んでいるみたいで最高に気持ちよかったです!飛んでいる時間も長すぎず短すぎず、大満足でした。ハワイに行ったらまた体験したいです♪
I chose the 90m option, and it was higher than I imagined, with a longer duration. However, if you're going to experience it, I recommend the 90m. Anything more might have too long of a hang time?
Be careful of seasickness. I had never experienced motion sickness before, but I almost felt it for the first time. However, the captain advised me to look far away, and doing that, along with flying in the sky, helped me feel better.
While floating in the air, I watched helicopters and Cessnas, and I think it's a wonderful experience to drift so quietly in the sky. It seems there are other parasailing tours available as well.
The crew takes photos for you, and when you return to land, they sell you the entire set on an SD card for $30, but we didn't buy it.
You'll need a swimsuit and a towel. If you're going to take photos with your phone, a waterproof one is safer. Women were not allowed to wear a skirt over their swimsuits. At the end, they let you dip down to your waist, which feels nice.
By the way, the reason I'm standing with my legs together in the photos is because of the ropes. Have a great trip!
90mを選びましたが想像以上に高く、時間は長めです、しかしせっかく体験するのであれば90mをおすすめします。それ以上は滞空時間が長すぎるかも?
船酔いには注意してください。今まで乗り物酔いをした事無かったけど初めて酔いそうになりました、しかし船長さんが遠くを見るようアドバイスくれて、それをした事と、空に飛んだ事で大丈夫でした。
空に浮きながらヘリやセスナを眺めたんですけど、こんなに静かに空を漂えるってとても素晴らしい体験だと思います。他にもパラセーリングツアーはあるようです。
乗組員の方が写真を撮ってくれて陸に戻るとSDカードに入れて自分達のを丸ごと売ってくれます、
30ドルですが私達は買いませんでした。
水着とタオルがいります。携帯は撮影するなら防水が安心です。女性は水着の上にスカートはいたらだめでした。最後は腰あたりまで着水させてくれて気持ちいいですよ。
所で、写真で内股になっているのはロープのせいですよ。良い旅を!
The scenery was beautiful with both the sea and the mountains, and it felt great. There were about ten people in our group, but everyone else was foreign. I didn't fully understand the explanations of the precautions since they were only in English, but I was still able to enjoy myself! Mahalo!
海に山にとても景色が良く気持ち良かったです。
10人ほどのグループでしたが、我々以外は全員外国人でした。
注意事項の説明も英語のみでよく分かりませんでしたが、楽しむ事は出来ました!
mahalo!
I tried parasailing for the first time.
The weather was great on the day of the activity, and our boat set off with three groups: a group of Japanese people, a group of Westerners, and us.
We headed out to sea for about 15 minutes before taking off into the sky.
We chose the 120m option and were the second group to go.
There were two male staff members who were very friendly, cheerful, and had a playful spirit, which made it a lot of fun.
At first, I was worried because I’m not good with heights, but for some reason, I felt completely at ease and there wasn’t much swaying.
The view of Waikiki, Diamond Head, and the vast ocean from above was exceptional, and it was a wonderful experience!
I thought I would like to go parasailing again when I visit next time. Thank you!
パラセーリングは初めて挑戦しました。
当日はとても天気がよく、私達を含め、日本人のグループ、欧米の方のグループの3グループで船は出発しました。
15分ほど沖に向かい、そこから空へ飛び立ちます。
私たちは120mを選び、2番めでした。
スタッフは男性二人でしたが、とても気さくで明るく、遊び心がありとても楽しめました。
最初高いところが苦手なので怖かったらどうしようと思っていましたが、なぜか全く怖くなく、揺れもそんなにありませんでした。
空から眺めるワイキキの街とダイヤモンドヘッドと広い海は格別で、とても良い経験でした!
また訪れた際には、パラセーリングしたいなーと思いました。
ありがとうございました!
Dylan and Jaime did a great job providing a fun and enjoyable time. The views were amazing and even the nervous members of our party had a blast.
My husband and I took our parents and We all had a wonderful time.
Thus was an amazing sight, we saw so many sharks, the staff was wonderful. I would highly recommend this.
We experienced this as two women. The staff doesn't speak Japanese, but they provide a Japanese instruction manual, so there are no safety concerns. We were taken up to a height of 150 meters, which is probably something you can't experience in Japan, and we enjoyed it while squealing with excitement. Considering it's equivalent to the 50th floor of a building, it can be intimidating, but we had so much fun up there without any fear. The time spent in the air was also very long, and we were completely satisfied. The wet landing was thrilling and a lot of fun (if you don't want to get wet, just let them know you prefer a dry landing).
Since it was full, I was worried about the long wait time, but in reality, it passed quickly as we took photos and admired the rainbow over Diamond Head, so it wasn't a problem at all (it might have been nice that it was cloudy, so we were comfortable without suffering from the heat). If I had to point out a downside, it would be that the time between the shuttle bus arriving at the boat dock and the boat's departure was quite long. However, this might be unavoidable for scheduling purposes.
女性2人で体験しました。
スタッフは日本語は通じませんが、日本語の説明書を配ってくれるので、安全面での心配はありません。
150mという、おそらく日本では体験できないであろう高さまで上げてもらい、キャーキャー言いながら満喫しました。ビルの50階相当の高さと考えるとびびりますが、上空ではそんな恐怖心もなく楽しめました。滞空時間もとても長く、十分満足できました。wet landingもスリル満点でとても楽しかったです(濡れるのが嫌な場合は、dry landingと声をかけておけば大丈夫なようです)。
満員だったので待ち時間が長くてしんどいかなと心配しましたが、実際は、写真を撮りあったり、虹のかかったダイヤモンドヘッドを眺めたりしているうちにあっという間に過ぎてしまい、全く苦になりませんでした(曇りだったので、暑さに苦しむことなく快適に過ごせたのもよかったのかもしれません)。
強いて言うなら、送迎バスがボート乗り場に着いてからボートの出発までの時間が長いのが難点でしょうか。余裕をもったスケジューリングという意味ではやむを得ないのかもしれませんが。
It was just an ordinary shallow sea. There are more sea turtles around Hawaii Island, which is fun. It was great to see manta rays. I was dissatisfied that the snorkeling was adjusted for beginners.
ただの普通の浅瀬の海だった。ウミガメはハワイ島の方が沢山いて楽しい。マンタが見れたのは良かった。シュノーケルは初体験の人に合わせて行うのが不満。
I was able to see dolphins!!!
Since I had heard that wild dolphins might not be seen sometimes, I was a bit worried about today, but I was truly moved to be able to see them o(^▽^)o♡
I was able to see them so clearly that I felt like I was looking at an aquarium tank.
I got to watch them swim for a while, and I was so happy to see a small baby dolphin too!
They swam quite close to us.
The dolphins were really cute o(^▽^)o
Not only dolphins, but I also saw about five or six sea turtles!
It was my first time seeing so many sea turtles up close, and I was really impressed!
When they came up for air, I was able to see them so closely, it was amazing!! I regretted not bringing an underwater camera... (laughs)
On the boat heading to the dolphin swimming point, the crew members kept the atmosphere lively, and we had a great time♡
The hula dance was wonderful too♡♡
I've participated in various tours before, but I think this was the most fun tour I've ever had!
The Japanese was so good, just like a native speaker, so I had no trouble during the tour (^。^)
I definitely want to participate again when I go to Hawaii! Thank you so much!
イルカ見れました〜!!!
本当に野生のイルカだから
見れない時もあると聞いていたので、今日はどうかなーと少し心配でしたが見ることができて本当に感動しましたo(^▽^)o♡
水族館の水槽を見てるのかと思ったぐらいにしっかり見れました〜
しばらく泳ぐ姿を見ることができたし、
小さい赤ちゃんイルカも見れて嬉しかったです!
私たちの割と近くを泳いでくれました。
イルカ本当に可愛かったo(^▽^)o
イルカだけじゃなくて海ガメも5〜6匹見れました!
あんなに近くで、あれだけの海ガメを見たのは初めてで大感動でした!
息継ぎをしに上がってきた時は本当に近くで見れて感動!!水中カメラ持って行けば良かったと後悔しました・・・(笑)
イルカが泳いでいるポイントまで向かうときの船でもクルーの方々が盛り上げてくれて楽しく過ごせました♡
フラダンスも素敵でした♡♡
今までいろんなツアーに参加してきたけど
1番楽しかったと思うツアーになりました!
日本語も日本人みたいに上手だったのでツアー中も何不自由なかったです(^。^)
またハワイに行ったらぜひ参加したいです!ありがとうございました〜!
We took a trolley for about 10 minutes and then moved another 5 minutes by boat to get ready for parasailing. We went up high, enjoyed it for a bit, and then came back down. Wait, that was it? It felt really short, and I was a bit taken aback by the request for a tip.
ピックアップのトロリーに乗り、10分ほど走って到着。そこからさらに船で5分ほど行ったところに移動していざ、パラセーリングです。
一回高く登って少し楽しんですぐ戻ってきて。あれれ?その一回でおしまいです。すごく呆気ないwでチップ要求ってちょっとどーなの?て感じでした。
The weather was unfortunately bad, but I was satisfied with all three courses.
The movie location tour was especially enjoyable, with the guide's stories being fun, and I loved taking photos with the dinosaur figures. I was thrilled to see the set of my favorite show, Five-O.
The jungle experience tour only had an English-speaking guide, but they explained things clearly, so I understood somewhat. They also spoke a bit of Japanese here and there.
On the boat tour, we were able to see the mountain range from the water, and when we went out to sea, the waves were strong, making the boat rise and fall like a theme park attraction, which was fun.
I was really glad they provided motion sickness medication, as all the rides had quite a bit of shaking, which was a big help.
I booked at the last minute, so this was the only tour available, but I would like to participate in horseback riding next time. It seemed that people in the horseback riding group were buying a locker key for $5 to store their belongings. It looks like it's better to go light.
生憎の天気だったのですが、3つのコース全て満足しました。
特に映画ロケ地ツアーのコースはガイドさんの話が楽しく、恐竜の人形とともに写真を撮ってくれたのがよかったです。
大好きなFive-Oのセットも見れて、感激です。
ジャングル体験のツアーは、英語ガイドさんのみでしたが、わかりやすく話してくれたので、
なんとなくはわかりました。
ところどころ日本語も話してくれました。
ボートのツアーは、水上からあの山並みを見ることができ、
沖に出ると波がきつくて、船が上下するのも遊園地のアトラクションのごとく楽しめました。
あると良いもので酔い止めの薬を書いておいてくださって本当によかったです。
どれもこれも結構な揺れを伴う乗り物だったので、助かりました。
間際に予約したのでこのツアーしか空きがなく、
今度は乗馬に参加したいです。
乗馬組の人は、荷物を預けるロッカーのキーを5ドルで買っているようでした。
身軽で行くのがいいようです。
Our beach front and trail ride was outstanding. Our guide, Monique, was very nice and made our ride really enjoyable. It was much more than we expected...the views, the weather, the scenery and the horses were all above par! I would recommend this for anyone. Don't let the casual appearance at check in worry you...it's all part of the charm.
Glad I decided to do this, it was awesome!!! Best activity on the North Shore!! Saw a ton of sharks, well worth the seasickness I got after. Staff was great and very helpful!! I would recommend this to anyone and can't wait to do it again!
First I was really afraid because I can barely float, I don't swimming if is not at the pool and going short distance. But I decided to have a new experience as a solo traveler in Hawaii as my first visit. The crew were just amazing, the lady at office received me with a big smile and was very friendly. The rest of the crew really made me feels good and my fears went away. When we got to the spot in the sea the first animal I saw was a turtle, and was an amazing feeling. While the crew organizing every scooter the only thing in my mind was "oh please I don't want to be the first one", after the captain told me I will be the next, I ended up being the third person going under. Words can not explain, you really need to go and have this experience where you can actually be close and touch animals under the sea.
I was lucky enough to see turtles, different kind of fish and even an octopus that got stuck on my big helmet for my pictures and video.
By the end of the day I got my photos and video, I've played my video and couldn't believe that the woman was me, they really did a good job, from the beginning to the end
I really recommend BOB's Adventure underwater scooter, specially if you don't swim at all, like me.
PS: I took the bus to get there from downtown, the commute was really easy and you will get so see more.
I participated first thing in the morning!
I checked out using the tablet at the reception.
Including ourselves, there were three groups of nine people and three instructors.
Everything was explained in English, but they also used gestures, so it was enjoyable.
You can take photos, but the number is limited.
Also, it might be a bit pricey at $15 for one photo and $30 for three (laughs).
Purchasing is optional, so if you find something you like, definitely go for it.
The buggies along the way were thrilling and fun!
朝一で参加してきました!
受付にあるタブレットからチェックアウトします。
自分たちを含めて3組9人とインストラクターさん3人とまわりました。
すべて英語でも説明ですが、ジェスチャーも加えて説明してくれますので
楽しく行えました。
写真も撮っていただけますが、枚数は少な目です。
また1枚15ドル、3枚で30ドルとちょっとお高めかも(笑)
購入は自由なので気に入るものがありましたら是非。
途中のバギーも迫力があり楽しかったです!
The sandbars you see on TV only appear when you calculate the tides. If you happen to experience a water depth of around your ankles, I think you’re quite lucky. The world you see on TV might be a bit difficult to experience on a tour, unless you rent a private boat and plan the date and time accordingly. When I went, it was from mid to late September, and the shallowest part was about halfway up my thighs.
Indeed, the water near the sandbar was clear and beautiful. However, it rained, and the overall experience was somewhat lacking.
The hamburgers made on the boat were delicious. The patties were frozen, but they grilled them on a BBQ, so they tasted great.
The issue came after lunch. We moved from the sandbar to an area with lots of coral for snorkeling. They took us to a place where you could say the coral spread over a large area. We were warned not to touch the coral, but depending on the tides, in shallow areas, the coral was about 30 cm below the surface. Can you swim in such places? The coral wasn’t particularly beautiful, and there weren’t many fish, so I didn’t feel the joy of snorkeling at all. Additionally, I was the only one who got stung by jellyfish multiple times on both shoulders and hands, having to endure pain and itching. You could say I was unlucky, but for this kind of experience, it felt overpriced.
テレビで観るようなサンドバーは潮の満ち引きを計算しないと現れません。
偶然にも足首程度の水深を体験出来た方は、かなりラッキーだと思います。
テレビで観るような世界は、ちょっとツアーでは難しいかな?プライベートで借り切って、日にちや時間も計算して行くなら別ですけど。
私が行った時は9月中旬~下旬にかけてでしたが、1番浅い所で太股の中間ぐらいでした。
確かにサンドバー近くは海は透き通っていて、きれいではありました。
しかし、雨は降るし、何とも言えない感じでした。
ただ船の上で作ってくれるハンバーガーは美味しかったです。( ´艸`)パテは冷凍物ですが、BBQ用のコンロ?で焼いてくれるので、美味しかったです。
問題はランチを食べた後。
サンドバーから、珊瑚がたくさんあるところへ移動して、シュノーケリングをします。確かに珊瑚のの岩と言ってもいいぐらい大きい範囲にわたって珊瑚がある場所に連れて行ってくれます。
珊瑚には触らないようにと注意を受けましたが、潮の具合なのか浅いところだと水面から30cmぐらいの所に珊瑚があります。こんな所で泳げますか??
特にキレイ珊瑚でもないし、魚がたくさんいるわけでもなく、シュノーケリングの楽しさが全く感じられませんでした。
そして私だけクラゲにたくさん刺されて両肩、両手と痛みと痒みに耐えなければなりませんでした。
運がなかったと言えばそれまでですが、こんな内容に対しては高いという感じです。
I love it will recommend it to all my friends and family
It was a wonderful experience!
I saw a pod of about 20 dolphins swimming right there.
Motion sickness medication is a must.
とても素晴らしい体験でした!
20頭ほどのイルカの群れがすぐそこを泳いでいくのが見えました
酔い止め必須です
I arrived first thinking I would get a good seat and waited in line for an hour, yet I was the last to get my meal, which is unbelievable!!! If you're going to serve meals in order of the tables, shouldn't you let the tables that arrived early go first? I had high expectations thinking it was Hilton, but I never want to go back again! I wanted to stay at Hilton too, but that's enough!!
良い席をと思い一番に行き、1時間も並んだにも関わらず、食事にありつけたのが一番最後とは有り得ない!!!( ̄ヘ ̄メ)(`Δ´)テーブルの順番に食事を取りに行くんだったら、早く来たテーブルの順番に食事を取りに行かすべきではないでしょうか?ヒルトンだと思ってとても期待していたのに、もう二度といきたくありません!ヒルトンも泊まりたかったけど、もういいです!!
Great time lots of sharks. Water can be choppy ...I swam with the sharks and my wife fed them unintentionally If you know what I mean. Take meds for motion 4 sure
Great Boat Great music great views lots of sea turtles ......what more could you ask for
This is our fourth trip to Hawaii, and we are a couple in our 60s and late 50s. Until now, we have never experienced any attractions at the beach, mostly sticking to non-active optional tours like sightseeing in the North Shore, dinner cruises, Polynesian shows, and restaurants. Therefore, we were filled with anxiety about parasailing right up until the last minute!
Our departure time was for the 9 AM course (the second one after 9 AM that day), and the participants included a couple in their 60s, two Japanese women, a Japanese family of four, and us, totaling ten people along with two foreign guides. We boarded the motorboat and headed about 20 minutes offshore, where we paired up and attached parachutes to our backs to float up into the sky.
First, two young women took off, followed by the foreign couple, and everyone seemed to be handling it well. Finally, it was our turn; we attached the parachute to our life jackets and, in no time, we were 90 meters up. There was no wind at that height, and the view of the truly blue ocean below was amazing. In the end, we dipped our lower bodies into the water. The flying time was about 10 to 15 minutes. It was not scary at all and was the best moment!
The two foreign guides explained everything in English, but even someone like me, who hardly speaks English, could understand. They also took photos for us (for $30). I definitely want to try parasailing at 150 meters next time!
今回が4回目のハワイとなる63歳と50後半の夫婦です。これまで、海でのアトラクションの体験はなく、ほとんどノースショア観光、ディナークルーズ、ポリネシアンショー、レストランなどの体を動かさないオプショナルツアーばかりでした。
ですから、今回のパラセイリングは直前まで、不安でいっぱい!
私達の出発時刻は9時のコースで(当日の9時の次の2回目)、参加者は60歳代の外人夫婦、二人連れの日本人女性、日本人の4人家族と私達の10人と外人の案内人二人。モーターボートに乗りこみ、20分ほど沖合に行き、左右二人一組の背中にパラシュートを付けて上空に浮き上がるわけです。
最初、若い女性二人組が飛び上がり、次が外人夫婦ペア、皆、簡単そうで何とかなりそうって感じに。いよいよ私達の番に、救命道具の背にパラシュートを付け、あっという間に90メートル
上空では、風もなくほんとに青い海を真下に最高の眺め。最後は下半身ドボンしてもらい。飛んでる時間は10分か15分でしょうか。まったく怖くもなく最高のひとときでした。
ボートでは外人二人が英語で説明してくれましたが、ほとんど英語できない私でも理解できる程度、写真も撮ってくれて(30ドル)
是非、次回は150メートルの長さでパラセイリングしたいと思います。
