It was my first experience with parasailing, and the blue ocean spread out beneath my feet, which felt wonderful. I was able to see Waikiki Beach and Diamond Head from the sea, making it a great experience. The tour was easy to join with transportation included, so I participated in the tour in the morning and enjoyed lunch and shopping in the afternoon, making the most of my day.
パラセイル初体験でしたが、足元には青い海が広がり、気持ちよかったです。
海から、ワイキキビーチやダイヤモンドヘッドを眺められて、いい経験になりました。
送迎付きで気軽に参加できるツアーなので、午前中にツアーに参加し、午後からはランチとショッピングを楽しめて、一日を有効活用できました。

We took a boat that was full with about ten people and headed out to sea while crossing the waves. It was quite bumpy! The height may not have been 150 meters. However, I thought that such a pleasant parasailing experience could only be found in Hawaii. The staff was very friendly and full of spirit to serve. The Westerners on board were also enjoying themselves. In the end, everyone was satisfied and gave tips.
10人ほどで満員になるボートで、波を横切りながら沖まで行きます。かなり揺れます(^^;)高さは150mもなかったかもしれません。が、ハワイでないとこのような、気持ちのいいパラセールはできないと思いました。スタッフはとてもフレンドリーで、サービス精神旺盛です。同乗した欧米人も、楽しんでいました。最後は、満足してみなさんチップを渡していました。

The bus was delayed, and I was worried, but about six groups of participants boarded the boat, and once we were offshore, we put on our gear and soared quite high. The staff kept talking the whole time, but since it was all in English, I didn't understand much. If I had known what they were going to talk about in advance, I might not have felt so anxious. There were various explanations and signatures on the shuttle bus, but since there were no other Japanese people besides us, we had no idea what the situation would be like when we arrived.
However, the paragliding itself was very pleasant, and I felt no fear at all. It seems that it's standard to get splashed up to the knees at some point. Looking down at the sparkling sea from such a height is truly refreshing. You can also see Diamond Head beautifully. Since everyone takes turns trying it, you spend quite a long time on the swaying boat, so those who are prone to motion sickness might need some medication.
バスガ遅れて、心配しましたが、6組くらいの参加者がボートに乗り込み、沖合に出ると順番に装具をつけて、かなり高く舞い上がっていきました。ずっとスタッフが話し続けているけれど、すべて英語なのでよくわかりませんでした。
事前にどのようなことを話すのか知っていれば不安にならなくてすんだかもしれません。送迎のバスの中でもいろんな説明、署名などがありましたが、私たち以外は日本人がいなかったので、着いてどんな状況で飛ぶのかもその場にならないとわからない状況でした。
ただ、パラセイリングそのものはとても気持ちがよく、怖いということは一切ありません。途中で、膝くらいまではポチャンと落とされるのが定番のようです。高いところからキラキラした海を見下ろすのは本当に爽快です。ダイヤモンドヘッドもきれいに見渡せます。全員が順番にトライするまでは結構長くゆれるボートにいるので、酔いやすい人は酔い止めが必要かもしれません。

I had such an awesome time doing this, one of the highlights of our trip! I got a decent price for the time and height and though it's over so fast, it was a blast! They do this awesome thing where they bring you down to dip you in the water a couple times and then shoot you back up into the air! So fun! Also, the picture package was a good cost ($30 for the group and we got 90 pictures or so on a SD card we got to keep) and we were glad we got to do that!

When you come to Oahu, you can't miss the sandbar! There are many sandbar tours, but I recommend the full-day sightseeing tour with sea turtle watching and BBQ! Since you're there, I hope you fully immerse yourself in the tour for the whole day. Unless you time it perfectly with a big tide, it won't be a sandbar, but you'll still have plenty of fun. It's highly recommended! It can get a bit chilly after coming out of the water, so be sure to bring a jacket.

We saw several amazing turtles and schools of fish. The crew was great - one member stayed by my son in the water until he was comfortable, and then dove down to get cool stuff off the sea floor to show him. The sailing portion was a blast.

First, we headed to the sandbar. Unfortunately, the weather was not great on the day we visited, and it was high tide, which made it feel a bit lacking. I think the view would be amazing on a clear day when a little bit of the beach is exposed above the water.
We played beach volleyball here (the ball was surprisingly heavy) and practiced snorkeling before enjoying hamburgers for lunch.
After that, we moved to a sea turtle spot for snorkeling. We were dropped off in a massive coral area that spanned several dozen meters wide. The entire area was filled with live coral, and there were plenty of fish to see. We even encountered sea turtles! However, I think you need to be careful when chasing the turtles because it suddenly gets deep as you go further out.
While encountering the sea turtles was a highlight, the sandbar, which is another main attraction, was a bit disappointing that day, so I would rate it a 4.
まずはサンドバーへ行きます。
私たちが訪れた日は、生憎の天気で、なおかつ満ち潮だったため、イマイチな感じでした。
カラっと晴れた日に、海上に砂浜が少し出てるぐらいだと、最高の景色になると思います。
ここでビーチバレーしたり(球がやたら重い)、シュノーケリングの練習をしたりして、昼食にハンバーガーを頂きます。
その後は、ウミガメスポットに移動してシュノーケリング。
横幅が数10mはある、巨大なサンゴの密集地帯で降ろされました。
一面生きたサンゴで、魚も見応えがあります。
ウミガメにも出会えましたよ!ただ、カメを追いかけて沖の方に行くと、いきなり深くなるので注意が必要だと思います。
ウミガメに出会えたのはポイントが高いですが、もう一つのウリであるサンドバーがこの日はもう一つだったので、評価4で。

It would have been "a once in a lifetime" opportunity in the Pacific ocean in Hawaii. Unfortunately the three of us anxiously awaiting our turn on the underwater scooters became seasick. Had we known the swells of the ocean, from tropical storm Darby, may have affected us negatively, maybe we could have prepared better. Perhaps somewhere in the confirmation the vendor could have mentioned motion sickness and recommended we take or put on something "just in case" we might be affected. My son made it into the scooter gear but came up because bubbles kept getting in his nose, eyes. Others on the boat did have a great time! We won't go again. We will snorkel next time. It just didn't work out for us.

During the ceremony of setting sail on the boat, a pod of 20 to 30 dolphins came to join us, and we were able to swim with them. It's said that it's rare to encounter them this quickly. Lucky!!
It was an emotional first experience for me. I also got to see sea turtles swimming a few times. Since we met the dolphins early on, we had plenty of time left for marine sports, which made me very satisfied. The marine sports equipment is limited, so we took turns. The crew members were all cheerful and kind, making it the best experience. I definitely plan to participate again next time.

My first time on a zip line. I participated with my wife, and it was so much fun. At first, I was nervous, but once you slide once, you quickly get used to it. Our group consisted of eight foreigners and the two of us, totaling ten people. The oldest participants were probably a couple in their 70s, which was quite surprising. However, we all managed to enjoy the zip tour together safely. The guides explained everything in English, so I didn't understand everything, but it wasn't a problem as I could follow along by watching their gestures. Along the zip line, there were places to drink water and enjoy natural nuts, as well as snacks like tomatoes and apple bananas, adding a bit of a walking atmosphere to the experience. One of the guides was called "Captain," and he really livened up the tour. If you go next time, try to find that Captain. If you meet him and say "いっぱいたのしい" (it's so much fun) in Japanese, I think you'll become friends right away. I plan to participate again if I have the chance.
生まれて初めてのZIPLine。妻と二人で参加しましたが、とっても楽しかったです。最初は緊張しますが、1回滑ればすぐに慣れます。私らの組は、外国人の方8名と私たちの10名でした。最高年齢は、たぶん70代の老夫婦の方で、こちらの方が、もうビックリでした。でも無事、皆で楽しくZIPツアーを体験することができました。ガイドは全員が英語で説明されるので、内容はよく分かりませんが、身振りを見ていれば問題ありません。ZIPLineの途中で、水を飲める場所や自然のナッツを食べれたり、トマトやアップルバナナをつまめるなど、ちょっとした散歩的な雰囲気も味うことができます。ガイドさんの中に「隊長」と言われる方いて、ツアーを盛り上げてくれました。今度行かれる方は、その隊長を探してみてください。隊長と逢えたら「いっぱいたのしい」と日本語で言えば、直ぐに仲良くなると思います。また機会があれば、参加しようと思っております。

This would have been a great snorkel adventure if there weren't so many people on board. It was impossible to view turtles. We were told to stick together and when the crew member who was in the water with us alerted us about a sighting everyone would swim over towards the turtles and you would either get kicked or shoved aside. Finally my granddaughter and I gave up and swam back toward the catamaran and we saw plenty of fish. The lunch was a lot better than the catamaran snorkel sail I took her on last year while she was here visiting. But they had a lot fewer people and we were able to snorkel and see turtles without being run over.

We participated in a BBQ lunch plan with my husband and our 9-year-old child. We chose this plan because we started the morning leisurely and spent a long time at the sandbar.
At the sandbar, the shallowest area was about knee-deep for adults, and in the deeper parts, we could just barely touch the bottom. The water was clear, the scenery was beautiful, and our child was thrilled. After practicing snorkeling at the sandbar, we had hamburgers, and the staff entertained us during the meal, making it fun even on the boat. We also got to see sea turtles!
The snorkeling in the coral area was breathtaking with the beautiful corals and fish. Our child, who was told not to damage the corals, was so amazed by the water's clarity that they said, "I'm scared I might kick the coral!" (laughs). We got so caught up in it that we ended up feeling quite cold (laughs). After snorkeling, we enjoyed warm drinks. The sea made us feel chilly, and the wind added to the cold. Also, the bus ride to and from the location was cold, so a bath towel and long sleeves are a must.

This was my first time doing anything like this, and I have to say, it defied my expectations in a good way. I had prepared myself for something flashy—bordering on gaudy, even—but what I got was something casual and relaxing, yet still elegant. There were no forced performances or over-the-top dramatizations, just a well-prepared dinner, prompt service and outstanding views. In a word, the whole experience felt genuine. It didn't feel pre-packaged or manufactured. I highly recommend it, especially for a group.

This is my eighth time being taken care of by VELTRA. Every tour has been a hit, and this time's submarine tour was also very satisfying. I signed up for the Japanese guided tour at 10 AM, and it was a great decision! With the earphone guide tour, I believe the guide is the same for the entire itinerary, but I was able to get explanations about the fish swimming right in front of me in real-time. Thanks to that, I didn't miss seeing the sharks napping, the rays gracefully swimming in threes, or the sea turtles gliding by. The weather was on our side, with clear blue skies and calm waves. According to the captain, "Even if the sea is a bit rough, the underwater experience is hardly shaken." Departing from Waikiki Beach meant a short travel time, allowing us plenty of time for activities in the afternoon. I will look for more fun tours to join next year, so thank you in advance!

I chose the plan with snacks.
Although the morning is a bit early, I can return by lunchtime, so even if I get a little tired, I can rest at the hotel and then go out again or spend my time freely.
I checked the tide schedule in advance and chose the best day during my stay to book. I think the water came up to about my knees to my waist. The feeling of standing over the vast sea with land far away was a rare experience that I don't usually get.
The snorkeling was just the right length for beginners, moving straight while glancing at the coral and turning back at a certain point, making it a very simple course.
You don't need to worry about "breathing" like in swimming, but the water is deep enough that you can't touch the bottom (and touching the coral can cause injury), so if you tend to feel anxious about not being able to grab onto something in an emergency, it's better to stay close to the staff. The staff is attentive and will quickly provide flotation devices to help if anything happens.
It was my first time snorkeling, and although it was brief, seeing the fish swimming with my own eyes was another valuable experience.
Lastly, although it's labeled as a sandwich, it's a simple one with ham and cheese between slices of bread, so don't expect something like the large hamburgers you might find locally.

水泳で言うところの、「息継ぎ」はしなくて良いのですが、足が着かないくらい深い(+珊瑚に触れるとケガする)ので、いざという時どこかにつかまったり出来ないことにすぐ不安を覚える人は、スタッフさんの側に居た方が安心です。
スタッフさんもよく見ているので、何かあったらすぐ浮く道具を寄越して助けてくれます。
シュノーケリングは初めてで、自分の目で魚たちが泳いでいるのを見れるのは、短い間でしたが、これまた貴重な体験でした。
最後に。サンドイッチと書かれていますが、食パンにハムとチーズを挟んだ程度の簡素なものなので、(現地の大きなハンバーガーのようなイメージとか)期待はしないように。
