This was a show that truly felt like Hawaii. The scale has shrunk quite a bit since I first saw it several decades ago, but it was a good show. The fire dance, in particular, was impressive. The food was buffet style; it wasn't bad, but it was just okay. I recommend it for those visiting Hawaii for the first time.
これぞハワイと言う感じのショーでした。
数十年前に始めてみた時からは大分規模はシュリンクしていましたが、良いショーでした。
特に火の踊りは圧巻でした。
料理は、ビュッフェスタイルで、まずくはありませんが、まずまずというところでした。
ハワイへ初めて行く人にはお勧めです。

YOU DO SEE TURTLES! Amazing experience- we saw 5 large sea turtles at the cleaning station. We had a large one come up for air literally right in front of us- I could have reached out and touched it! We also saw dolphins and several large fish. If you want to see turtles, this is the snorkel for you... If you're looking for a close-up of tropical fish - go to a different site. Cruise is very comfortable and a great view of the Waikiki beach front.

It was a fun and quick two hours.
Swaying on the back of a horse while gazing at the magnificent scenery is an experience you can only have here. The horseback riding at Turtle Bay was pleasant as it walked along the coast, but at Kualoa, you can enjoy a different kind of refreshing feeling. However, most of the areas are not shaded, so it might be hot in the summer. It seems better to wear a hat.
It didn't seem like they would pick up a camera if you dropped it while riding, so be sure to bring a strap when you take it with you.
楽しくあっという間の2時間でした。
雄大な景色を眺めながら馬の背に揺られる、この体験はここでしかできません。
タートルベイの乗馬は海沿いを歩けて気持ちよかったですが、クアロアではまた違った爽快感が味わえます。
ただ、木陰じゃないところが大半なので夏は暑くて大変かもしれません。帽子をかぶったほうがよさそうです。
乗馬中カメラを落としても拾ってくれなさそうでしたので、持っていくときはストラップを忘れずに。

This was my second time participating. I joined with my family of four. I think the experience was more attentive than last time, and we had more time to interact with the dolphins. The dolphin touch and the interactions guided by the instructor were really great. For those considering visiting the Honolulu Aquarium, you can have plenty of fun here, so I recommend participating in this. Next time, I would like to sign up for the above activity.

前回よりもよりも、丁寧でイルカと接する時間が長かったと思います。

From what we had heard from some others we knew who visited the PCC, we were expecting a good experience, but results were beyond expectations!
The staff were consistently helpful and friendly, the presenters (in the village exhibits) were informative, entertaining and clearly loved talking about what they were demonstrating, and loved performing their traditional dances and skills. The Samoan Village demonstrator (coconut husking and fire making using simple materials) was extremely entertaining and I wish I had his muscles!
All that was very fine, but the capstone was the performance of "Ha! The Breath of Life". The performers are largely students at BYU Hawaii, but the performance was worthy of genuine professionals.
The food at the buffet (we didn't do the Luau) was very good and there was a great variety of foods available.
Highly recommended!

This trip is worth every penny if you haven't experienced something like this before, or even for another visit. They said we were guarranteed seeing some sharks and they didn't disappoint. On my trip we saw about 15 - 20 circling the cage.
Shuttle bus picked me up from the hotel on time and we were taken to the harbour in the north. Boat ride out to the cage was about 3 miles (20 mins or so) and then the passengers were split into 3 groups of 8, each group having 20 mins in the water surrounded by 10ft sharks. Great!! No need to be nervous, you're totally safe in the cage.
The staff were friendly and ready to answer questions.
Would recommend one of the earlier trips, i went for the 9am one.
One final tip, take at least two underwater cameras as the shots are amazing!!!

I wasn't expecting much from the hula and fire dance in Hawaii, but it was really great. I didn't understand much English, but I had a lot of fun. Before the show started, there were some fun booths where you could choose your favorite designs for temporary tattoos on your arms and legs... (it was free). The food was served buffet-style, and I could take as much as I wanted. However, once the show started, I got so focused on watching that I forgot to eat with my chopsticks (or fork). I sat next to an American named Porter, and even though we couldn't understand each other, we connected and exchanged emails. After returning home, I sent him the photos via email.
Since I arrived early, I was able to enjoy the free seating. I'm thinking of coming back here next year if I have dinner elsewhere in the evening.

料理もビュフェ形式で好きなものを沢山取れます。でもショーが始まると見ることに集中して箸(フォーク)が止まって食べるのを忘れてた。
隣に座っていたアメリカ人のポータさんとは言葉は理解できないけど、打ち解けメール交換しましたよ。帰国して写真をメール送信しました。
席も早めに並んで行ったので自由席でも十分楽しめました。

Positive Points
- The shuttle bus to the hotel is a dedicated trolley, which is easy to understand.
- You take a boat to reach the submarine, and the scenery is nice just offshore.
- Since it's just offshore, it's less likely to cause seasickness.
- It's a submarine, after all!!!
- You might see quite a bit.
- You can understand the current state of Hawaii's oceans and the various efforts being made to protect the sea.
Negative Points
- The fish visibility is quite low; if you expect to see fish up close to the windows, you might be disappointed. However, it is a very valuable experience to see the state of fish in nature and how they exist. You can feel the gap between the ocean on TV and the actual reality. Also, it depends on luck; I was able to see a sea turtle and a ray, but it seems there are times when you can see sharks as well. You might think that turtles are like Gamera in the ocean.
- There is a small invitation on the way back, but I wouldn't recommend it.
Even though the fish visibility is low, they do go around the wrecks, and you can actually see a lot of fish, so it's not really a bad point. Compared to the photos in the pamphlet, it might be a bit lacking... but this applies to everything.
They take photos at the entrance, but they sell them for $40 on the way back. Well, that's pretty common, right? However, for couples or as a memento of a honeymoon, the quality is good, so it's worth it. We bought one. Oh, and you might hear the name of a well-known airplane, too? (Sorry if I'm mistaken).
良かった点
・ホテルへの送迎バスが専用トロッコで、わかり易い。
・潜水艦に乗るまで、船で行くのですがちょっとした
沖合で景色が良い事。
・ちょっとした沖合なので船酔いしにくい。
・とにかく潜水艦!!!。
・結構見れるかな?。
・今のハワイの海の実態や、海を守るために色々な努力
がなされているという事実がわかります。
悪かった点
・とにかく魚影は薄いです、窓の近くで魚を見れると
思って行くとがっかりするかもしれなせん。
ただ、自然における魚の状態や有り様が見れるので、
とても貴重な体験だと思います。
テレビの中の海と実際の現実とのギャップを肌で

またその時の運もあるでしょう、自分はウミガメと
エイをみれましたが、サメが見れる時もあるよう

・帰りにちょっとした招待がありますがお勧めしません。
魚影が薄いとは言っても、ちゃんと沈没船などの周りを回っってくれて実際は多くの魚を見ることができるので、あまり悪い点とはいえないですね^^;。
パンフの写真とかと比べるとちょっと・・・というところでしょうか。まあこれは全てに当てはまるでしょう。
入り口で写真を撮ってくれるのですが、帰りに40ドルでうってくれます。まあよくある事ですよね。ただカップルや新婚旅行の記念としては、出来も良いのでいいのでは?自分たちは買って来ました。
あ、そうそう知る人ぞ知る飛行機の名前も出てくるかも知れませんよ?(間違いだったらごめんんさい^^;)。

We highly recomend this tour and found it value for money.

It's a bit pricey, but I had a wonderful experience touching, kissing, and swimming with dolphins. We traveled from the hotel to Sea Life Park by a large bus. The customers were about half Japanese and half from other countries, and the guide spoke mostly in English. Since there wasn't much important information shared on the bus, I think it's fine even if you don't speak English. At the site, there was someone who could speak Japanese to explain things during our visit. It wasn't too difficult and was a lot of fun. By the way, there's a church right at the entrance of Sea Life Park where Yuko Rin had her wedding!

Booked this sailing sunset cruise for myself and my beautiful wife. We have done sailing sunset cruises before in Mexico so knew what to expect and initial indications were this would be pretty standard fare for what we've experienced. However, the desire was to be able to appreciate a couple hours sailing while appreciating a beautiful sunset. We weren't looking for anything grandiose. But, we were impressed by the all male staff not being over-the-top on trying to "cheese" up the cruise but were good to let the experience of the sunset be the excitement for the guests. However, about 40 minutes into the cruise the captain asked loudly if we wanted to see dolphins. He immediately swung the boat toward a school of Hawaiian Spinner Dolphins and we were fortunate to spend the next 10-15 minutes sailing along with them playing all around the boat including swimming and playing in the wake at the bow of the boat. There was a school of 50+ dolphins all around us. What an amazing exper

Since the stage is set up on the rooftop, it's difficult to see the show because of people's heads. If the seating were tiered like at the Polynesian Cultural Center, it would be possible to see the entire show from the back, even if it's far away.
The "Waikiki Starlight Luau" at the Hilton Hawaiian Village is very convenient for those staying at the Hilton, as it's located within the village. It's also convenient to be able to watch the show while having a meal.
