It was a unique experience to be standing in the sea with almost all sand visible. Snorkeling was also amazing; it felt great to be swimming alongside the fish.
ほぼ砂が見えている状態だったので、海の中で立っているという非日常的体験が良かった。
シュノーケルも、魚と一緒に泳いでいる気分が最高だった。

Waking up early was worth it.
I was able to swim with a large pod of wild dolphins and even with false killer whales. The captain was flexible and extended our time by about an hour, and we were also able to do activities like stand-up paddleboarding.
There were many people who got seasick, so I think it's a good idea to take motion sickness medication if you're feeling anxious.
朝は早いですが、早起きして頑張って行った甲斐がありました。
野生のイルカの大群、そしてオキゴンドウとも泳ぐことが出来ました。
船長さんが臨機応変に移動してくださり、1時間ほど延長しましたが、SUP等もできました。
船酔いされてる方がたくさんいたので
不安な方は酔い止めを飲んでおいたほうがいいと思います。

I really wanted to ride a horse, so I booked this place since it was close by and I had planned to go skydiving in the morning. As soon as I entered, I spotted a horse! I arrived a bit too early, so I explored the area! Right behind was the beautiful ocean of the North Shore! The location is amazing!
There were two women guiding us, and one of them did her best to explain in Japanese. But it was simple enough to understand. More than that, the horse was so well-behaved that it was quite comfortable.
Along the way, the horse ate grass and pooped. It had a free-spirited vibe that I can't experience in Japan. I definitely want to go again. If possible, I want to be able to ride like a wild samurai.
I went with a friend, but my friend got motion sickness from skydiving, so I ended up riding with a family from the West. They took some photos, and I made great memories!
どうしても馬に乗りたくて、朝スカイダイビングする予定で、すぐ近くだったのでこちらを予約しました。 入り口入ったらすぐ馬発見!案外早く着きすぎたので、近くを探索しました!すぐ裏はノースショアのきれいな海!ロケーションサイコーです!
案内してくれたのは女性2人、1人の女性は頑張って日本語で説明してくれました。でも簡単な説明なので余裕で理解しました。っと言うより馬が良い子過ぎてかなり快適でした。
途中で草を食べたり、ウンチしたり。自由な感じが日本では味わえない雰囲気でした。
また、是非行きたいです。出来れば暴れん坊将軍位乗れるようになりたい。
友達と行ったのですが、友達はスカイダイビング酔いをしてしまい結果私1人と欧米の家族での乗馬でした。写真も撮って頂きいい思い出できました!

Since they are wild dolphins, I hoped to see them, but I thought I shouldn't get my hopes up too much. However, I was able to encounter a pod of dolphins!

The weather was a mix of sunny and cloudy... Our first trip to Hawaii! Leaving our eldest and second daughter in Japan, it was a trip for just the four of us: Dad, Mom, our eldest son, and our youngest daughter.
Being a sporty family, we first got hooked on beach volleyball, and while Dad took photos, there was a flurry of high-fives between us! The hamburgers for lunch were delicious—though we tried to recreate them at home and were disappointed that they didn't taste the same.
Seeing sea turtles up close had our high school senior son and middle school junior daughter in a frenzy! This two-shot at the beach was also refreshing!
Dad and Mom are determined to live long lives! We definitely want to go back again. Nature is amazing. The only downside was that the round-trip bus took way too long to arrive.

I considered a 1.5 or 2-hour course but ultimately participated in the 1-hour course, and I had a great time walking through the grasslands with the mountains in the background, climbing and descending the mountain trails. I think there were mostly Japanese participants, and we walked in a line as a group of about 20 horses. Some horses started eating grass or strayed from the line, but each time, the staff would call out in Japanese, saying things like "Pull the reins!" Additionally, two staff members at the front and back would come to give instructions to the horses, which made me feel safe and allowed me to enjoy the horseback riding. The staff were friendly and it was a very pleasant experience.
1.5か2時間コースも検討し結局1時間コースに参加しましたが、山道を登ったり下ったり山をバックに草原を歩いたりで十分楽しめました。ほぼ日本人だったと思いますが20頭くらいのグループで一列に並んで歩いて行くのですが、馬によっては草を食べ始めたり列を外れたりするのですが、そのたびに「綱を引いて~」等と日本語で声かけしてくれました。また前後の2人のスタッフが馬に指示を出しに来てくれたりで安心して乗馬を楽しめました。スタッフの方もフレンドリーでとても良かったです。

We participated as a couple.
The tour heading towards the North Shore always includes "This Tree, What Tree" and "Dole Plantation," which can be a bit tiresome, but it's understandable since there are first-timers.
The main horseback riding experience lasts about 90 minutes, going along a mountain path with ups and downs, so it's quite fulfilling.
I've also experienced horseback riding at Kualoa Ranch, but I enjoyed this one more in terms of riding time and course.
After riding, we had an hour of free time in the town of Haleiwa, so I was able to indulge in the Huli Huli chicken from Ray's.
夫婦で参加しました。
ノースショア方面へ向かうツアーには「この木なんの木」「ドールプランテーション」が必ず入るので辟易しますが、「初」の方もいらっしゃるので仕方がないですね。

On this day, there were many clouds, and they were reflected on the water's surface, but I was still able to observe a lot of sea turtles. The sandbar is not completely dry land, but it feels very strange to think that there is a shallow area about ankle-deep offshore. The mountains of Kualoa Ranch visible from the sandbar were very beautiful and left me in awe.

I participated because I wanted my parents, who were visiting Hawaii for the first time, to experience what Hawaii has to offer. Starting with traditional hula, the spectacular fire show was breathtaking, and my parents were thrilled. I definitely recommend participating in the premium seating. You can really see everything up close!
The meal was served buffet-style, and we all lined up together to serve ourselves. There were many Hawaiian dishes, and they were very colorful. For drinks, I exchanged the drink tickets I received at the reception at the bar, but friendly waiters also came around to take orders at our seats.
I considered the luau at the Polynesian Cultural Center, but we had a great time here. Given the location and the food, I think I would choose this place again for my next visit.

We boarded a large bus at the Sheraton Waikiki bus center and set off. As expected from a popular tour, the bus was nearly full. It was a comfortable ride towards Kaneohe. Since it was early in the morning, I thought I would try to sleep, but I found myself captivated by the beautiful scenery outside the window until we arrived. We then boarded a nearly motionless boat from the port and set off. On the way to the sandbar, we enjoyed some sea turtle watching. The turtles peeked their heads out from the beautiful emerald green sea, and each time, there were cheers of excitement.
Upon arriving at the sandbar, we took a stroll towards it with our cameras in hand. Everyone enjoyed taking photos, and after a while, we returned to the boat to drop off our cameras and put on our snorkeling gear to head back to the sandbar. We had a great time snorkeling there.
After encountering many fish, we returned to the boat, where delicious sandwiches and drinks were waiting for us. The boat smoothly made its way to Kaneohe Bay.
I truly had a wonderful time in the beautiful sea. Thank you very much.

We participated as a family of five, all beginners. Our Japanese guide and driver, Masa, kept us entertained with his fun conversations and made sure we enjoyed ourselves at every stop. He casually took us to a recommended lunch spot, which was a relief in the heat, and thanks to him, we were able to enjoy our free time until the last minute. The horseback riding was at a cozy riding club run by Mark and Angel, and I was surprised that we got to ride right after a brief explanation! However, as we gradually became one with the horse, the excitement when we emerged from the dense valley into an open area was unforgettable. The only downside was that the restroom was a simple mountain toilet, which had quite an odor, but I definitely want to go back to meet the uniquely charming horses again. Thank you, Spirits!

We went as a family of four, including two elementary school children.
The water level at the sandbar was just below waist height. Honestly, I was quite disappointed because I had imagined the sand would be more exposed. That said, the weather was nice, and the clear water and white sand were beautiful.
After returning home, I did some research and found that various conditions are needed for the sand to be exposed, so it seems to depend on luck and timing. I feel there should be a bit more communication that it’s not guaranteed the sand will be visible!
The BBQ lunch consisted of hamburgers made with patties grilled on the boat. It might be clearer to call it a BBQ hamburger. There was quite a line, so it took a long time, but that’s understandable. We were able to see 2-3 sea turtles during the sea turtle watch, and the kids were satisfied. It was unfortunate that it started to drizzle during snorkeling, and the water became dim. After getting out of the water, it was so cold that I recommend bringing a change of clothes.
Since the rain intensified, I wonder if we returned to the dock early... We were unsure which bus to take and whether any buses were even coming. There was no one to explain, so we had to ask all the drivers. In the end, we had to wait about 20 minutes for the shuttle bus to arrive. It was quite comical to see everyone wandering around in the light rain without umbrellas. I think everyone would feel more at ease if they could come to pick us up with a bit more time to spare. Therefore, I give it ★★★.

海から上がった後は震える程寒く、着替えを持参することをお勧めします。

I participated with my son. I made a reservation online with Veltra from our accommodation in Honolulu. Due to the last-minute booking and the time difference, I confirmed with the local provider and also double-checked by phone. When I confirmed by phone, there was availability for the specified 11 AM slot, but it was ultimately confirmed for the 9 AM slot. I heard from the locals that after that, reservations filled up quickly. The pickup was in a car with a shark design. It took about an hour from the hotel to Haleiwa. From there, we transferred to a boat and arrived in about 20 minutes. The sea was very clear and beautiful. It was my first time seeing so many sharks up close, and it was a truly valuable experience! Additionally, the music from Jaws was playing on the boat, which added to the atmosphere.
息子と二人で参加しました。ホノルル滞在先からveltraさんにネットで予約しました。前日の予約と言うことと時差の関係から、現地にも確認を入れ、念のために電話でも確認。電話で確認した時は、指定の11時に空きがありましたが、最終的に9時枠で確定でした。現地の人からは、その後予約が入り、一杯になってしまったとか?ピックアップは、サメの絵柄の車。ホテルから現場のハレイワまで、約一時間。そこからボートに乗り換え、20分にほどで到着。海は、透明度が高く、とても綺麗でした。実際に、あれだけ多くのサメを間近に見れたのは初めてで、とても貴重な体験が出来ました!また、船上では ジョーズの音楽も流れ、演出もなかなかでした。

This is the only luau I have attended, but I can't imagine one being more enjoyable than this one. The pick-up service was right on time at the scheduled location and the drive over to Sea Life Park was quick considering the time of departure. The pre-dinner activities were fun and I picked up a piece of local artwork from a vendor that has become my favorite Hawaiian collectible. Dinner was very good and I'm still thinking of how yummy the coconut cake was! Chief was very entertaining and the other performers really put their native pride into the show.

I absolutely loved it and look forward to going back next time I'm in Hawaii. Thank you Star of Honolulu staff!!!

I participated in this optional tour for the first time. We were blessed with good weather and the conditions were perfect. Although we were the only ones at 150 meters, the sailing time was the longest, and we could enjoy views of the blue ocean, Waikiki Beach, and Diamond Head that are usually not visible. I don't speak English at all, but I had no problems enjoying myself. If I had to mention a downside, the hotel pickup was about 20 minutes late. Well, this kind of delay is acceptable in Hawaii. I plan to join this tour again next time. Please make it enjoyable!
初めてこのオプショナルツアーに参加しました。天気にも恵まれコンディションサイコー。150メートルは私たちだけでしたがセーリング時間が最も長く、高く上がるので青い海やワイキキビーチやダイヤモンドヘッドが普段は観ることのできない景観で楽しめます。まったく英語はできませんが問題なく楽しめました。少し難を言えばホテルのピックアップ時間が定刻よりも20分ぐらいおくれました。まあこのくらいの遅れはハワイでは許容範囲です。次回もこのツアーの参加を予定してます。楽しませてくださいね。

We participated as a group of 12 people, including six children (three aged 5 and three elementary school students) and six adults from three families. Our family used this service for the second consecutive year! Due to the large number of participants, we split into two boats: one with mostly Japanese passengers and the other with a mix of foreigners and a few Japanese. Based on the children's request, we boarded the boat with more foreigners. However, there were also Japanese guides, and the announcements were made separately for Japanese and foreigners, with us receiving information in Japanese.
We departed from the hotel at 9:00 AM, and thanks to the good timing of the tides, there were spots at the sandbar where the 5-year-olds could stand, and they had a great time with the floaties. The adults set up a court with poles right there, and we played beach volleyball. During the sea turtle watching, we spotted several turtles, and those who entered the water early encountered a large resting turtle very close to the entry point! It seemed to swim away after some noise, so those who entered later missed it, but those who saw it were lucky. We were able to float and observe the turtle for several minutes right above it! It might be better to prepare for snorkeling early to increase your chances. They also provided free rental vests, fins, and snorkels for the kids, which was convenient.
We brought our own floaties, but there were also several floating tubes available on the boat that we used (the 5-year-old was taken with a floatie, vest, and floating tube to see the sea turtles). During snorkeling, there were areas with a depth of several meters, and since it was all coral, there were no areas where you could stand. The distance from the boat to the coral area where the turtles were was about 10 meters, so as long as the children are not afraid of deep water, they should be fine. There were also many beautiful small fish. I think it would be better to change clothes before getting on the return bus since it can be cold. We brought one rental beach towel for each child from the hotel, which was a good decision. The hamburgers for lunch were delicious! The beer we had on the boat after swimming (additional charge, settled upon disembarking) was also excellent. We used the same tour for two consecutive years, and we were fully satisfied as we could feel the essence of Hawaii!
5-10才までの子ども6人(5才3人小学生3人)、大人6人計3家族12人のグループで参加しました。小生家族は昨年に続き2年連続の利用です!人数が多かったため日本人ばかりの船と、外国人+日本人少しの船に別れ、子どものリクエスト!により外人が多い方に乗船しました。といっても、ガイドは日本人の方もいて、途中案内は日本人外人別々に、我々には日本語で行って頂けました。朝9:00ホテル発でしたが潮のタイミングが良く、サンドバーでは5才の子ども達も立つことが出来るような場所もあり、浮き輪で充分楽しめました。大人はその場でポールを立ててコートを作ってくれたので、ビーチバレーで遊びました。ウミガメウオッチでは何匹かのカメを発見、シュノーケリングでは早くに海に入った人が、エントリーポイントすぐ近くにいたかなりでかいお休み中のカメに遭遇!途中で騒がしかったのか泳いで行ってしまい、後から入った人は見れませんでしたが見れた人はラッキーでした。数分間は休んでいるカメの真上でぷかぷか浮きながら観察できました!早めにシュノーケリングの準備をして入った方がチャンスがあるのかも。子供用のベスト、フィン、シュノーケルも無料で貸して頂けたので便利でした。浮き輪も持参しましたが、浮き輪代わりの浮くチューブは何本も船に用意してありそれも利用しました(5才児は浮き輪+ベスト+浮くチューブで連れて行きウミガメを見せることができました。シュノーケリングの時は水深数メートルのところもある上、サンゴばかりで立つことが出来るエリアはありません。船からサンゴエリア・ウミガメのいたところまで10mほどでしたので、水と深いのが怖くなければ子どもも大丈夫だと思います。きれいな小さな魚もたくさんいました)。帰りのバスは寒いので着替えてから乗車した方が良いと思います。ホテルのプール用のレンタルバスタオルを子どもの分も1人1枚持参しましたが正解でした。昼食のハンバーガーは美味しかったです!泳ぎ終わった後、船の上で飲んだビール(別料金、下船時に精算)も最高でした。2年続けて同じツアーを利用しましたがハワイらしさを感じることができ、充分満足でした!

We participated in the Dolphin Adventure at the request of my elementary school daughter. We had a valuable experience swimming with dolphins, and both my daughter and I had a lot of fun. However, I felt that the time spent interacting with the dolphins was short for the high price, and it didn't quite meet my expectations.
In the morning, around 8:30, a bus marked "Sea Life Park" came to pick us up from the designated location. It took all the guests with reservations for the 9, 10, and 11 o'clock slots. Since it was a small park, we experienced everything, including shows, sea lions, turtles, and feeding small birds, but we ended up having extra time and felt that the wait until our 11:45 reservation was long.
We left the park at 2:30 PM, so we returned to the hotel close to 4 PM. It would be better if they arranged the pickups according to the program times, but since they gather everyone together for transportation, the time spent at the park can feel lengthy. I think those considering this should plan accordingly and allow for some extra time.
小学生の娘の希望で、ドルフィン・アドベンチャーに参加しました。
イルカにつかまり泳いだりと、貴重な経験ができて
娘も、私もたいへん楽しむことができましたが
値段が高い割にはイルカと触れ合える時間が
短いというか、値段ほどでもなかったかな
と、いう印象も受けました。
朝は8時半ごろ指定のピックアック場所に
シーライフパークと書かれたバスが迎えに来て、
9時台、10時台、11時台の予約客をまとめて乗せていきます。
小さなパークでしたので、ショーやアシカやカメ
小鳥のエサやりなども全て体験したうえで
時間が余ってしまい、11時45分の予約まで
待っている時間が長く感じました。
帰りが14時30分パーク出発でしたので、
ホテルに戻ったのは4時近くになりました。
プログラムの時間に合わせてピックアップをしてくれれば
良いのですが、まとめて送迎されるため、
パーク内に留め置かれる時間が長いので、
検討される方は余裕をもって組み込まれた方が
いいかと思います。
