I took a lesson for two hours starting at 3 PM.
I was a bit anxious because I'm not good at English, but the staff member, who has a Japanese wife, was fluent in Japanese, so the pre-lesson explanation in the office was completely fine.
Once we moved to the beach, the stretching and orientation were explained only in English, but I was able to understand it somewhat through gestures.
I think the actual time we got to experience surfing was around 60 to 90 minutes (it's a bit vague since I wasn't wearing a watch...).
The staff member pushed the board at just the right moment, so I was able to stand up properly!
They let me use a long board, so even though it was my first experience, I was able to stand up relatively easily.
At first, we took turns one by one, but as we got used to it, they allowed us to stand together in pairs, and I appreciated the thoughtfulness of the staff!
15時から2時間のレッスンを受けました。
英語が苦手なので不安もありましたが、日本人の奥さんをもつスタッフの方は日本語が堪能で、オフィスでの事前説明は全く問題ありませんでした。
ビーチに移動してからのストレッチやオリエンテーションは英語のみの説明でしたが、身振りでなんとなく理解できました。
実際にサーフィンを体験できた時間は60~90分くらいだったと思います(時計してなかったので曖昧ですが…)
スタッフの方がタイミングよくボードを押してくれたので、ちゃんと立つことができました!
長いボードを使わせてくれたので、初体験でしたが割りと簡単に立つことができました。
はじめは1人ずつ順番にやりましたが、慣れてきたらペアで一緒に立たせてくれたりと、スタッフの方の気遣いが嬉しかったです!

I participated with a friend. Our group included four pairs (two from Japan and two from overseas), totaling 12 participants. The person in charge of us did not speak Japanese, and we were only given a notice written in Japanese, but as long as you read it properly, there are no issues (it includes precautions for parasailing and landing methods).
The parasailing lasted about 5 to 10 minutes each time, and I was very satisfied! Right in front of us was Diamond Head, and below was the deep blue sea; it felt like we were gracefully flying alongside airplanes. At first, the height was surprising, but it wasn't scary at all, and it felt quite relaxing. However! The real activity felt like it was on the boat, as it rocked quite a bit! The life jackets are only worn during parasailing, so if you're not holding onto the railing, you might seriously feel like you're going to be thrown off. The women in our group screamed! We took motion sickness medication, so we were fine, but four people ended up getting seasick.
I think the waiting time on the boat depends on the number of participants, and since we were facing backward to watch those parasailing, along with the wave height, it contributed to the motion sickness. I strongly recommend taking motion sickness medication in advance if you're prone to it, but overall, I’m glad I participated!
友人と参加しました。私たちのグループ含め4組(日本、海外各2組)12名の参加でした。
私たちを担当してくださった方は日本語が出来ず、日本語が書かれた注意書きを渡されるのみですがちゃんと読んでいれば問題ないです(パラセーリング中の注意点や着陸方法等)。
1回につき5分から10分のパラセーリング、とても満足です☆目の前にダイアモンドヘッド、下は真っ青な海、飛行機が飛ぶ横を優雅に飛んでいる感じです。最初は高さにびっくりしますが全然怖くなくのんびりできる感じです。が!本当のアクティビティは船なんじゃないかというくらい揺れます!救命胴衣はパラセーリング中のみの着用のためそれ以外は手すりにつかまってないととばされると本気で思うぐらいです。私たち含めた女性陣は悲鳴です!私たちは酔い止めを飲んでたため無事でしたが4名の方が船酔いしてました。参加人数によって船での待機時間があること、パラセーリングしてる方を見てるためずっと後ろ向きなこと、波の高さが要因だと思いますので酔いやすい方は事前の酔い止めを強くおすすめしますが、総合的に参加してよかったです!

The meeting place had a bus with people from various countries, but there were explanations in both English and Japanese, so it was reassuring. After arriving, we had free time until the activity, but actually, there are no personal areas to explore within Kualoa Ranch. Once you enter, there are check-in counters for each activity, and you can only wander around that area or eat. Since we had nearly two hours until the horseback riding, we were at a loss and spontaneously signed up for a movie location tour on-site (about $50). It was with a Japanese-speaking guide and very enjoyable. Fortunately, there happened to be an opening at just the right time, but otherwise, it might have been boring.
The horseback riding started suddenly after watching a Japanese video. You have to put your belongings in a paid locker, and while cameras are allowed, it's better to hang them around your neck since there are moments when both hands are needed. The horses are well-trained and move slowly, so even beginners should have time to take photos. There are some beautiful scenic spots, so definitely take advantage of that. Occasionally, a horse would stray off the path, but the guides (there were two for about ten people) would bring them back. It might have been because the girl taking a lot of selfies was on that horse, so the horse may have been distracted. If proper commands are given, they will likely respond well.
As for clothing, there were people wearing shorts and sandals who were not turned away, but since the sunlight is direct during horseback riding, I think knees can get really sunburned. Also, since you need to operate the stirrups, shoes that cover the toes and heels well are advisable, so I think the precautions from VELTRA are appropriate.
集合場所からは様々な国の方と一緒のバスでしたが、英語と日本語で説明があるので安心です。
到着後、アクティビティの時間までは自由行動ですが、実はクアロア牧場の中って個人的に回れるエリアがないんです。入場すると各アクティビティのチェックインカウンターがあるのですが、その付近をうろうろするか、ご飯を食べるかしかないです。乗馬の時間まで2時間近くあったので持て余し、急遽現地で映画ロケツアーを申し込みました。(50ドルくらい。日本語のガイドさんでとても楽しかったです。)たまたまちょうどよい時間の空きがあったので良かったですが、そうじゃないと退屈かもしれません 。乗馬は、日本語のビデオを観たらいきなりスタートです。荷物は有料ロッカーへ、カメラはOKですが、両手を使う場面もあるので首から下げるほうが良いです。馬さんたちはよく調教されていてゆっくり回ってくれるので写真を取る余裕は初心者でもあると思います。景色がいいところもあるので是非。たまに道を外れる子もいましたが、ガイドさん(10人位の列に対して2人でした)が連れ戻したり、、、位はありましたが、自撮り棒で写真めっちゃ撮ってる女の子の乗ってた馬だったので手元がおろそかになってたんじゃないかと。たぶんちゃんと指示を出せば言うことは聞いてくれます。
ちなみに服装ですが、ショートパンツにサンダルでも断られず乗ってる人もいました。でも乗馬中は日差しがダイレクトなので、膝とかすごく焼けると思います。あと鐙を操作するので、やはりつま先と踵がしっかりカバーされた靴が良いと思いますのでVELTRAさんの注意事項は適切だとおもいました。

There were four groups including us, and everyone except us was from abroad, but the atmosphere on the boat was really nice! There were two foreign staff members who spoke only basic Japanese, giving instructions and asking if we were having fun, but they were very cheerful! I didn't get seasick, but if you're worried about seasickness, it might be a good idea to bring some motion sickness medication!
Parasailing was a bit scary, but it felt amazing, and it was so much fun to see everything from up high!!! They checked with us about taking photos when it was our turn, and they were also filming with a GoPro. I saw that the group before me had some great shots, so I decided to purchase the photos they took of us! This also became a wonderful memory!
I'm really glad we chose to go up to 150 meters! If I come back to Hawaii, I definitely want to go parasailing again!

I went to the meeting place and waited for 10 minutes past the scheduled time, but the shuttle did not arrive. Even when I called, they spoke rapidly in English, and I couldn't understand anything. In the end, I waited for an hour, and then I received a call from Veltra, who made excuses about traffic congestion. It was a disaster. Being in a foreign country, I can tolerate some things, but this was a complete no-show.

I participated in a two-hour course. Even though it had been a while since I rode a horse, the pre-ride lecture was quite simple: pull the reins to the right when you want to go right, and to the left when you want to go left. It also mentioned that if the horse starts eating grass, you should firmly pull the reins to stop it. I was a bit worried when I got on the horse, but it was very well-behaved and followed the horse in front of it perfectly. We went through a lush forest and then came across a path where we could see the ocean. There was also a place with several large dinosaur bones, which I assume was a filming location for Jurassic Park, making it quite enjoyable. I felt a bit nervous when other riders approached on the narrow path, wondering if we could pass each other, and we even encountered some buggies. The two hours flew by. However, I unexpectedly started to feel pain in my backside, but overall, it was a fun tour.
2時間コースに参加。久しぶりに馬に乗るというのに、事前のレクチャーは右に行きたいときは手綱を右に引き、左の時は左にということと、草などを馬が食べ始めたら、しっかりと手綱を引いて辞めさせるようにというものくらいででした。心配しながら馬に乗ったのだが、馬がとてもおりこうさんで、しっかり前の馬の後について進んでいってくれました。こんもりとした森の中を進んだかと思うと海が見える小径をいったり、ジュラシックパークの撮影地だったのでしょうか、大きな恐竜の骨がいくつも置いてある場所があったりで楽しめました。狭い道を向こうからも馬に乗った人たちが来て、すれ違えるのかとドキドキしたり、バギーが走っているのに出会ったり、2時間はあっという間でした。しかし、途中からお尻が痛くなったのは予想外でしたが、楽しむことができたツアーになりました。

I was a bit anxious because I participated with someone who is not very familiar with English, but it seemed that many staff members understood Japanese, so there were no problems at all. For transfers and meals during the tour, you can manage just by following the flow of people.
Even if you get lost, it felt like someone would help you out if you were wandering around with your voucher. Since it's likely a space with only employees and tourists, there shouldn't be any danger of petty crime. It has a warm and friendly atmosphere.
Jurassic Park is great, but I think you'll enjoy it even more if you watch the new "Jumanji" that was released recently before going, as it really feels like stepping into that world!
英語に不慣れな二人で参加したので不安だったのですが、日本語の分かる方が多く働いているようで、何も問題ありませんでした。ツアー間の移動や食事なども、人の流れについていけばなんとなく済ませられます。
もし迷ってしまっても、バウチャーを持ってウロウロしていれば誰かがなんとかしてくれそうな雰囲気でした。
おそらく従業員と観光客しかいない空間なので、軽犯罪などの危険もないでしょう。ほのぼのとした感じです。
ジュラシックパークも良いですが、近年公開された新しい「ジュマンジ」を見てから行くと、まさにそのままの世界なので、楽しめると思います!

I had my elderly father and mother participate in a tour. On the day of the tour, the tour company made a mistake with the meeting time and arrived an hour early, so they didn't come to pick them up no matter how long they waited. My mother managed to think on her feet and contacted the tour company, allowing them to join the tour that was scheduled an hour later.
The day before, I had provided the emergency contact information to the tour company, yet they decided to mark them as absent simply because "they weren't at the meeting place" without properly confirming. If they had checked thoroughly, they would have realized they had mixed up the times. What would have happened if my mother hadn't contacted them?
After returning from the tour, I reached out to the tour company, but their response was, "If you were able to join the next tour..." It completely ruined what was supposed to be a meaningful trip for my parents.

This was my second time participating in this tour. I usually join the morning sessions, including those from other companies, but this time I thought I’d try the 12 PM session. Just like last time, the staff were all very pleasant. It’s a reliable tour. The visibility wasn’t great this time, but we saw more than five turtles and a decent number of fish. It lasts about two and a half hours, and the fact that it departs right from the heart of Waikiki makes it highly recommended for enjoying such an experience just a bit offshore. I also appreciated that they provide fins along with the snorkeling set.
このツアーには2回目の参加でした。他社のも含めいつも朝イチの方にさんかしてたのですが、たまには午後にしてみようかと今回は12時の回にしてみました。前回同様スタッフはみなさん感じよく。安定感あるツアーです。今回は透明度が今ひとつでしたが、亀さんは5匹以上、魚はまぁまぁいました。2時間半程度で、しかもワイキキど真ん中からのツアー、ワイキキからちょっと沖にでてこれだけ楽しめる、というのは変わらずおすすめ!シュノーケルセットに加えてフィンも貸してくれるのも結構うれしいポイントです。

I didn't think I would get seasick, but since all the participants cruise until the end, I recommend taking motion sickness medication if you have any concerns.

The staff were also enjoyable, and I was very satisfied; my daughter said she had more fun than with dolphin watching or shrimp fishing!

I was able to fully enjoy the beautiful nature on the two-hour course. It felt just like stepping into a movie, and I was satisfied just by gazing at the scenery, even without detailed explanations.
I think it's best to carry your smartphone or camera hanging around your neck. There were moments when the horses acted up and started to trot quickly, and the instructor had to pull away horses that strayed from the line, so if you have pockets without zippers, you might drop something. I was told to leave my small body bag in a locker, possibly because it had a decent amount of stuff inside.
The horses are generally well-trained and seem accustomed to various noises, walking calmly in formation. The horse behind me occasionally grazed, and when it stopped, it acted up a bit. There were no moments that felt dangerous this time.
I have some experience with horseback riding, but since it had been a while, my rear started to hurt, so I might find intense sports difficult the next day. The activity ends just when you start to feel a bit tired and want to head back.
After a short break, it was just the right time to get on the bus. The return bus can get a bit crowded, so it might be better to act a little earlier.
2時間コースで美しい大自然を満喫できました。まさに映画の中に入り込んだようで、詳しい説明がなくても景色を眺めているだけで満足できる時間でした。
スマホやカメラは首から下げる状態での持ち込みが良いと思います。馬が反抗して早足をしたり、列から離れた馬をインストラクターが早足で引いたりする場面があったので、ジッパーのないポケットだと落としてしまうかもしれません。小さなボディバッグも(中身がそれなりに入っていたためか)ロッカーに預けるよう言われました。
馬は基本的によく調教されていて多少の物音にも慣れているようで、大人しく隊列をなして歩いてくれます。後ろの馬は時々草を食べたり、それを止めたら反抗したりはしていました。危険を感じるような場面は今回ありませんでした。
私は乗馬を多少経験したことがありますが、それでも久しぶりに乗ったのでお尻が痛くなりましたので、翌日に激しいスポーツはきついかも? アクティビティ自体はそろそろ疲れたので帰りたい…と思う頃に終わります。
少し休憩してからバスに乗ったらちょうどよい時間になりました。帰りのバスは少し混みますので、気持ち早めに行動した方がいいかもしれません。

Due to the last-minute change in schedule, I was filled with anxiety, receiving a call early one morning while still in Japan asking, "I plan to participate today, what’s going on?" and having several exchanges to confirm the changed itinerary. However, the customer service representative was very kind and helpful.
On the day of the event, I was picked up in Waikiki at 11:25. Perhaps due to the timing, there were only a few participants on the large bus. We went straight to Sea Life Park with staff who were expressionless and silent. Once we arrived, the explanation was provided by a Japanese guide, so there was no confusion. However, I was disappointed to find that while the bus was scheduled to gather at 16:45, the park closed at 16:00. I later saw the closing time in the Q&A section, but I felt that such an important detail should be included in the schedule that everyone can see.
Before making the reservation, I asked, "If I participate in the 13:45 encounter, which shows can I see?" but received a complete copy of the schedule from the website. I didn’t feel any kindness in that response. In the end, the only show I could see was the dolphin show.
The price for photos was surprisingly high at 6,000 yen, and like the closing time, I felt it should be clearly displayed for everyone to see.
Although it was a highly rated tour, considering the price and the enjoyment I had, I think once is enough. I also feel that it wasn’t necessary to do this in Hawaii.

予約前にも「13:45エンカウンターに参加した場合、どのショーが観れますか?」と質問するも、HPのスケジュールをまるまる転記。全く親切心が感じられませんでした。結果観れたのはイルカショーのみでした。
写真が6000円と驚く程高く、先程の閉園時間と一緒で、誰もが一目で確認出来るよう掲載すべきと感じました。
評価の高いツアーでしたが、価格と楽しんだ時間で考えると一度行けば十分です。特にハワイで行かなくても良かったとも思っています。

Although you can't see the grand ocean scenery like in a painting, you can enjoy a surreal underwater world at the "20,000 Leagues Under the Sea" attraction in Tokyo DisneySea! It's especially recommended for those who are not good at swimming and don't want to dive! However, if you're prone to seasickness, it's a good idea to take some motion sickness medication beforehand. I also tend to get seasick, but I prepared in advance based on prior information, so I was able to enjoy the underwater scenery until the end!
絵に描いたような壮大な海の中の様子は見れませんが、非日常の世界をリアルな海の中をディズニーシーにある海底二万マイルというアトラクションにのように楽しめました!
泳ぎが苦手でダイビングはやりたくないなぁって方は特にオススメです!
ただ船酔いしやすい方は酔い止め飲んでおくと安心です!私も船酔いしやすいですが、前情報から酔い対策してたので最後まで楽しく海底を鑑賞できました!
Aloha! We're glad you enjoyed the cruise at such a unique and beautiful location in Waikiki. Thank you for sharing your experience and recommendations. We hope to see you again in the future. Mahalo!

After the video lesson, we practiced on the sandy beach. Since it was a longboard suitable for beginners, almost all the women, including myself, were able to ride it right away! The guide was also cheerful! I was a bit disappointed that we couldn't get any photos taken.
ビデオ講習のあとにビーチの砂浜で練習しました。初心者向けのロングボードということもあり、私を含めほとんどの女性がすぐ乗れてました!
ガイドさんも陽気な感じでした!
写真撮影して貰えなかったのが少し残念でした。

★About the Movie Location Tour
- I recommend sitting on the right side of the bus as there were many more photo opportunities from that side. The guide provided explanations about Kualoa Ranch and the movie locations while we rode the bus, and we visited various filming points.
- At one point, we got off the bus to recreate the scene where characters hide from a herd of dinosaurs behind a fallen tree from Jurassic Park, and the guide took photos for us. They creatively used dinosaur figures to create interesting perspectives in the photos.
- Additionally, at the site of the air raid shelter, we were able to touch bones used in the movie and take photos inside the vehicle used for filming Jurassic Park. It was great to take pictures with realistic dinosaur robots and the King Kong set.
- During our visit, we had a Japanese guide, but I'm not sure if that is always the case.
★About the Jungle Tour
- Conversely, I recommend sitting on the left side as there were more photo spots from that side.
- Similar to the previous tour, we rode in a vehicle to visit various points. Other groups seemed to have Japanese guides, but my group only had explanations in English.
- We were able to see the set of the crashed helicopter and the gate set from Jurassic Park.
- We also got off the vehicle to enjoy a panoramic view of Kualoa's filming locations, which was breathtaking.
- At one point, we got off to see a place that recreated local life from the past, but I didn’t find it very appealing.
★Taste of Kualoa
- This tour also involved riding a bus while viewing the plants grown at Kualoa.
- We got off the bus a couple of times to sample some food, and several movie locations were mentioned again during this tour.
- Compared to the previous two tours, this one felt a bit dull. However, the Japanese guide was entertaining.
★★Summary★★
- Kualoa Ranch seems to have a system where you can choose several optional tours you like.
- I definitely recommend visiting Kualoa Ranch! The location tour was fantastic! However, I thought it might have been nice to choose activities like zip-lining or ATV rides as well.
- Honestly, lunch was not very good.
★映画ロケ地ツアーについて
・バスは右側の方がだいぶ写真撮影のポイントが多かったので、右側に座ることをお勧めしま
す。基本バスに乗車しながらガイドさんがクワロア牧場や映画のロケ地の解説をしてくれ、ロケ地ポイントなどを見て回る感じでした。
・途中、ジュラシックパークで出てきた倒木に隠れて恐竜の群れから隠れるシーンを再現しているところでは、下車してガイドさんが写真を撮ってくれました。恐竜の人形を駆使して遠近法を活かして面白く撮ってくれました。
・また、防空壕の跡地では、映画の撮影で使った骨に触れたり、ジュラシックパークの撮影で使われた車に乗って写真撮影ができました。恐竜のリアルなロボットや、キングコングのセットとも写真が撮れて良かったです。
・私達の時は日本人のガイドさんが付いてくれましたが、それが常時かどうかは分かりませ
ん。
★ジャングルツアーについて
・上記とは逆で左側の方が撮影スポットが多かったので、左側に座ることをお勧めします。
・こちらも基本車に乗車してポイントを見て回る感じでした。他のグループには日本人のガイドさんが付いていたようですが、私のグループは英語での解説のみでした。
・途中、墜落したヘリのセットやジュラシックパークの門のセットなどを見る事ができました。
・また下車して展望スポットからクアロアのロケ地を見渡すことができたのですが絶景でした。
・途中、現地の昔の生活を再現した場所にも下車したのですかあまり魅力を感じませんでした。
★テイストオブクアロア
・こちらもバスで回りながらクアロアで育ててる植物を見て回る感じでした。
・途中2度ほど下車して少しだけ試食を食べました。その中で映画のロケ地がまた何箇所が出てきました。
・こちらは上記2つに比べると少し退屈な感じでした。ガイドの日本人の人は面白かったです。
★★まとめ★★
・クアロア牧場自体が、好きなオプショナルツアーを自分でいくつか選択するシステムのようです。
・クアロア牧場自体は是非行って欲しいです!!ロケ地巡りはサイコーでした!が、後はジップラインやバギーなどを選択しても良かったかもしれないと思いました。
・お昼ご飯は正直あんまりでした。

I am an experienced rider.
Because of my experience, I really enjoyed it.
I have never seen such breathtaking scenery.
The horses are well-trained and managed, so even without human commands, they start moving when the lead horse (staff) in front begins to walk.
There is no fast pace; it’s a slow and steady walk.
There are remnants of the Jurassic Park set, which were impressive to see.
乗馬経験者です。
経験者ゆえとても楽しめました。
これほどの絶景は見たことがありません。
馬もしっかり調教、管理されていて、人間が指示を出さなくとも、前列のリーダーの馬(スタッフ)が歩き出せば、同じように動き出すという感じでした。
速足などはありません。ゆっくりゆっくり歩いていくという感じです。
ジュラシックパークのセットなどが残っており、見ごたえありました。

I was searching for horseback riding experiences and was drawn to this plan because it offered a walk by the seaside. I was able to get there without getting lost using the rental car's navigation system. The local staff spoke only English, but there were Japanese instructions for horseback riding, and they also demonstrated with gestures, so even my elementary school-aged child could understand. It was a very sunny day, but the sea breeze was refreshing and felt great. While walking along the coast, I was told to look for sea turtles, but unfortunately, we couldn't see any. The horses were very well-behaved, walking slowly in a line. It was about an hour and a half walk; since I wasn't used to it, my backside got a little sore towards the end, but it was definitely a satisfying experience. I would love to repeat it if I have the chance again.
乗馬体験で検索していたところ、海辺を散歩できるというところに惹かれ、こちらのプランに参加しました。レンタカーのナビで迷わず行けました。現地のお姉さんは英語オンリーですが、日本語の乗馬の注意書きがあったり、デモンストレーションも身振り手振りしてくれたりしたので、小学生の子供でも理解できました。とても日差しの強い日でしたが、海辺の風はさわやかで気持ちが良かったです。海岸を歩いているとき、ウミガメを探してみて!と言われましたが、残念ながら見ることはできませんでした。馬たちはとてもおりこうさんで、一列に並んでゆっくり歩いてくれました。1時間半ほどのお散歩、慣れていないので最後はちょっとお尻が痛くなりましたが、十分満足できる内容でした。また機会があったらリピートしたいです。

I went on my first day in Hawaii. Since it was my first time in Hawaii, I decided to get a Diamond Seat and participate. Thanks to arriving early, I was guided to the central front row seat, and it was great to see the show up close. I was especially excited about the fire dance! I was also given priority for the buffet, and I was very satisfied!
初めてのハワイで初日に行きました。折角の初ハワイだからとダイヤモンドシートを取って参加しました。早めに行ったおかげか中央の一番前の席に案内していただき、ショーを間近で見ることができて良かったです。特にファイヤーダンスに興奮しました!ビュッフェも優先で案内いただき、とても満足でした!

■Positive Points
The sea is beautiful.
It's not as scary as I thought.
■Negative Points
It shakes a lot.
When there are many participants, the waiting time on the shaking boat is long, and you can get seasick.
Since it goes quite far offshore, you can get seasick during that time.
■Overall Evaluation
Most of the negative points are related to seasickness, but even people who usually don't get seasick will likely get sick, so motion sickness medication is essential.
I think this is the most important point to be aware of, but there isn't much warning about it, so please be careful, everyone.
We were the last ones, but while others were participating, we got seasick, and by the time it was our turn, we were just trying not to throw up and hardly enjoyed it (laughs).
■良かった点
海が綺麗
思ったほど怖くない。
■悪かった点
とにかく揺れる
参加人数が多いと、船に揺られて待つ時間が長く、酔う。
かなり沖合まで行くので、その間に酔う。
■総評
悪かった点はほとんど船酔い関係ですが、
普段船酔いしない人でもまず間違いなく酔いますので、酔い止めは必須です。
最も注意すべきポイントだと思いますがあまり注意喚起がされていないので、皆さん気をつけて下さい。
私達は最後だったのですが、他の方がされている間に酔ってしまい、自分達の番の時はとにかく吐かないように我慢していて、ほとんど楽しめませんでした(笑)

Aloha! Thank you for your cooperation. I'm sorry to hear that it wasn't as exciting as you expected. The ocean is often very unpredictable, and sightings of marine life can vary by time. We look forward to your valuable feedback. Please feel free to share it with the team. Mahalo!
