I participated on August 21st. It was a very good attraction. I thought the chance to swim with dolphins was rare, so I signed up. Fortunately, our guide was Japanese, so there was no language barrier. Since it is a foreign country, depending on your perspective, it might feel a bit lacking. I wanted to take pictures with an underwater camera, but I was told to stop and it was not allowed, which was disappointing. The photos taken by the staff are sold later (I feel like this pattern is common in Hawaii), and as a result, we ended up buying those photos since they would be a nice memento. Overall, it is a very enjoyable theme park. I think people of all ages, from children to the elderly, can have fun. I would like to go again.
8/21に参加しました。大変良いアトラクションでした。イルカと一緒に泳げるチャンスは、少ないと思い、申し込みました。たまたま私達の担当者が、日本人だったので、言葉は不自由しませんでした。一応外国なので、考え方によっては、物足りないかもしれません。水中で使えるカメラを持っていき、写したかったのですが、ストップをかけられて、使用不可だったのが残念です。業者の人が撮った写真を、後で売っているのですが(ハワイでは、このパターンが多いような気がします)流れで、その写真を買う状況になってしまいます。私達は、記念になるので、購入しました。全体として、とても楽しいテーマパークです。お子さんから、年配の方まで、幅広く楽しめると思います。また、行ってみたいです。

On August 18, I participated with my family. At 8:45, we joined the dolphin experience. The water was cold, but when the dolphins came close, I forgot about the cold. I was so happy to receive kisses from the dolphins, give them kisses, and swim while holding onto their fins. At 9:30, we fed the sea lions, which wasn't as enjoyable for us. At 10:55, we participated in swimming with the rays. The water was dirty, and we had to swim with snorkels, which required some courage and determination. Touching the rays felt amazing, and we all exclaimed "Wow!" in excitement. There were many large rays, which surprised us a bit, but we felt reassured knowing they were not dangerous.
We intended to participate in feeding the turtles, but there was a long line, so we decided to do that later and went for a meal instead. At 12:55, we experienced the sea walk. Although I had done it before, I felt nervous for some reason. There were three staff members, but two of them entered the water with us, which made me feel safe.
We received a free underwater camera, and I took many photos. The development was also free, and about 100 photos were ready. Swimming with the wild turtles was great, but what I loved most was being able to "touch them," see them "up close," and "feed them from my hand" underwater. We had a long time to interact with the turtles, rays, and fish.
Since my whole family loves turtles and dolphins, we had a wonderful day. Thank you very much.
8月18日に家族で参加しました。8時45分{イルカ}に参加で、水が冷たかったけどイルカが傍にきたら冷たさを忘れて、イルカからのkiss、イルカへのkiss、ヒレにつかまって泳いだりと、イルカに触れる事が出来てとても嬉しかったです。9時30分、{アシカに餌やり}これは、余り嬉しくなかったみたいです。10時55分{エイと一緒に泳ごう}に参加。水が汚くて、シュノーケルをつけて泳ぐのですが、勇気と開き直りが必要でした。エイを触り、とても気持ちよい感触で「わーー!」って皆で感動しました。大きいのもたくさんいたので、少しビックリしましたが、危険ではないと聞き安心して泳げました。{カメに餌をあげよう}に参加しようと思ったら、すごい行列だったので、後にしようとなり、食事にいきました。12時55分{シーウォーク}経験してるけど、なぜか緊張しました。3人のスタッフがいましたが2人が水中に一緒に入って下さるので安心しました。
水中カメラを1人1台無料で頂き、写真をたくさん撮りました。現像も無料なのです。100枚ほどの写真が出来上がりました。野生のカメと泳いだのも良かったですが、何といっても「触ることが出来る」「もの凄く間近で見れる」「水中でえさを手から
あげれる」というのが、とっても良かったです。長い時間カメとエイと魚達と触れ合えました。
家族全員が、カメとイルカが大好きなので、幸せな一日を過ごせました。ありがとうございました。

Three years ago, my eldest son participated in the same Splash U with his mother. This year, my youngest son and I participated. Before it started, my youngest son looked a bit worried about touching a live dolphin, but once he touched it, he quickly broke into a smile and eventually said, "I want to stay with the dolphin a little longer." It must have become a wonderful memory for him. I'm satisfied that we could give him such a good experience.
However, last time we received something like a completion certificate for each participant, but this time there wasn't one. I wonder if the content is changing little by little. There were about 40 to 50 pairs of parents and children or couples participating, so I felt that the service was a bit lacking compared to last time. I have no complaints, but if I had to wish for something, it would be that the price could be a bit more reasonable. After all, paying over $200 requires some courage when signing up.
3年前に長男が同じスプラッシュUに母親と参加しました。今年は次男と父親が参加しました。始まるまで生きたイルカに触ることにビビっていたのか、浮かない顔の次男でしたが、一度触れたら見る見る笑顔になり、仕舞いには「まだイルカさんと居たい」と言い出す始末。いい思い出になったことでしょう。良い経験をさせてあげられたと満足しています。
ただ、前回は調教の終了証書のようなものを一人づつもらえたのですが、今回はありませんでした。少しづつ内容が変わっているのかな。参加者も親子、カップルで40~50組くらいいたと思うので、少々応対は物足りなく感じました。(前回に比べて)
不満はありませんが、欲を言えば、もう少しお値段が何とかならないかと。。やはり$200オーバーは申し込む時に勇気が要りますよね。。

On August 15th, my family of five experienced this together. It was the first time for our three children, but everyone was extremely satisfied with the sky swimming experience. Since there were five of us, I thought someone would have to be alone, but surprisingly, I (the mother) was able to ride with my 15-year-old and 9-year-old children.
Both the sky and the sea were beautiful, and the view of Waikiki was great, leading to lively conversations and a lot of fun. The staff even took photos for us, and we received the film right away. I'm looking forward to developing the pictures.
8月15日に家族5人で体験して来ました。3人の子ども達は初めてでしたが、みんな大満足の空の遊泳となりました。5人なので誰かはひとりにならなくてはと思っていたのですが何と私(母)は15歳と9歳のこどもと3人で乗ることができました。

At first glance, the facility looks small, and you might wonder if it's okay... but it's surprisingly impressive. The staff are true professionals. The animals raised by these experts have truly become entertainers. It's certainly not cheap, but it's far superior to similar attractions in Japan. You could compare it to the significant difference between a Broadway musical in New York and a local theater company. You really have to come here and see it for yourself to understand.
見た目は小さく、大丈夫かな…と思わせる施設ですが、これが侮れない。飼育係の皆さんはほんとにプロ。そのプロに育てられた動物たちはホントにエンターテイナーに育っています。決して安くはありませんが、日本の同様の企画より格段上。例えれば本場ニューヨークのミュージカルと劇団四季ぐらいの大きな差があります。実際にここに来て見ないと分からないけどね。

It was softer and more supple than I had imagined. Above all, my child was overjoyed and couldn't forget about the dolphins after returning home, so it must have been quite an emotional experience for them. If I had to make a suggestion, when grouping participants for the attraction, they had 12 to 15 people per dolphin, but I would have preferred if they doubled the number of dolphins and limited each group to about 5 to 6 people. This way, there would have been less unnecessary waiting time during the attraction, allowing for more time to interact with the dolphins. In any case, I felt that for younger children, this attraction offered a more suitable level of interaction with the dolphins compared to the Dolphin Adventure. By the way, my children participated at ages 10 and 5.
想像していたよりも軟らかく、しなやかな肌触りでした。
何より子供が大喜びで帰国してからもイルカの事が忘れられず、よほど感動したのでしょう。欲を言えば、アトラクション参加者をグループ分けする際、イルカ一頭に対して、12人~15人を一グループにしていましたが、イルカの頭数を倍にして、一グループ5~6人程度にしてほしかった。そのほうが、アトラクション中の無駄な待ち時間も少なく、イルカと接する時間を多く取れたでしょう。いずれにしても子供の年齢が低ければドルフィンアドベンチャーよりもこちらのアトラクションのほうが、程よいイルカとの触れ合いだと感じました。ちなみに子供の年齢は10歳の長男と5歳の長女で参加。

Our family took our first submarine trip together. The kids, who had never seen the ocean floor before, were so excited! Our guide was Japanese and provided clear explanations, so I highly recommend it. I read in a review that if you sit in the back of the submarine, you can get a seat in the very front, so we did just that. We were able to sit right behind the cockpit and had a great view through the large front window. According to the kids, they also saw 14 sea turtles!

We participated as a group of several people, but there were also two other groups with individuals attending alone. Since we booked through this page, there was no transportation provided, so we rented a car to get to the location, while the other groups arrived with transportation included. Although Japanese is not spoken, we managed to communicate through body language. The boat does sway quite a bit, so if you are prone to motion sickness, please make sure to take motion sickness medication before boarding. The area where the sharks are located has truly beautiful waters. You can see many sharks, but ultimately, you can only watch the sharks, so it can get boring after a few minutes. Additionally, some people felt nauseous after getting into the enclosure because it swayed with the waves. If you want to see sharks in a beautiful, clear sea, I definitely recommend participating.
当方は数人のグループで参加しましたが他には1人で参加されている方も2組いらっしゃいました。このページで予約した我々は送迎は無かったのでレンタカーを借りて現地まで行ったのですが、他のグループは送迎付で来ていました。日本語も通じませんがボディランゲージなどで何とか大丈夫でしょう。結構揺れが有るので酔いやすい方は酔い止めを必ず飲んで乗船してください。鮫がいる地点は本当に海が綺麗です。たくさんの鮫を見れますが結局鮫を見るしかないので数分で飽きてきます。しかも柵が波でゆらゆらするので柵に入ってから酔う方もいました。綺麗で透き通る海で鮫を見たい方はぜひ参加を

I participated with my mother. There weren't any other people over 60 like my mother, and she was worried until we took off, but once we were in the air, it felt even better than we expected! There was no turbulence, and we could see far into the distance, which made my mother happy. There were no other Japanese participants, and the staff were locals, but they tried their best to communicate with us in broken Japanese and even checked on my mother, who felt a bit seasick on the way back. We were at the lowest height, but it still felt quite high. It was very interesting. They take photos for a fee, which is a bit pricey at $15, but they took a lot of pictures, so I was satisfied. They gave us the film, so we were able to develop it the same day and show it to everyone.

In the pickup vehicle, there were only three of us Japanese among twenty people, but once we arrived at the site, we were relieved to be placed in a Japanese team. We were able to interact with dolphins, which we usually only get to "look at," and the Dolphin Adventure was an incredibly valuable experience. With an 8 AM pickup, we left the site around 1 PM, but we had over two hours at the location, making it an efficient tour.
ピックアップの車の中は、20人中、日本人は私達家族3人だけという状態でしたが、現地に着いたら日本人のチームに入れてもらえて一安心。いつもは「見るだけ」だったイルカと思う存分触れ合えて、ドルフィン・アドベンチャーは非常に貴重な体験でした。朝8時のピックアップだと現地を出るのが13時ごろですが、現地での時間も2時間以上とれて、効率的なツアーだと思いました。

I had heard rumors about it, but the boat ride out to sea is quite bumpy, so it's better not to eat right before. There was an American woman who looked like she was in a "salted greens" state. I think this ride might be a bit hard for children under elementary school age. However, the view from offshore Waikiki is amazing, so I definitely encourage you to be in good shape and give it a try. Bringing your own camera or video for filming is not allowed (or rather, it's difficult due to the rocking), but if you ask, they will film one roll for $15 and give it to you at the end. This will be a nice keepsake!
噂には聞いていましたが、沖に出るまでのボートの揺れが激しいので、直前に物を食べないほうが良いですヨ。アメリカ人のお姉さんで、「青菜に塩」状態のひとがいました。この揺れは小学生以下のお子さんには少々ハードだと思います。でも、ワイキキの沖から眺める景色は最高なので、ぜひ体調を万全にしてチャレンジして頂きたいと思います。持ち込んだカメラやビデオでの撮影は不可(というか、揺れのために困難)ですが、お願いしておくと、15ドルでフィルム1本分を撮影して最後に渡してくれます。これは記念になりますね!

This year, it seemed like there were more windy days than usual in Hawaii, but fortunately, on the day of the event, it was calm from early morning. I participated with my family of five (myself, my wife, our 8-year-old and 3-year-old children, and my mother) while rubbing our sleepy eyes. Only my wife had experience with parasailing, so I was a bit nervous about what to expect at first, but the staff's kind assistance and humor eased our nerves, and before we knew it, it was our turn to soar into the sky. The view of Honolulu and Diamond Head from high above the ocean was stunning and left a strong impression on me. We were also able to have photos taken while parasailing, which we purchased as a keepsake. My mother, who is 63 this year, was particularly happy, saying, "This became a wonderful memory, my first and last." However, she mentioned that her shoulder hurt the next day, as it seemed she had gripped the parasailing rope tightly with all her strength. I also hope that when the kids grow up, we can participate in a higher altitude experience rather than the standard one.
今年はハワイはいつもより風の強い日が多いような気がしましたが、参加当日は幸いにも早朝から穏やかで眠い目をこすりながらファミリー5人(私、妻、子供8歳、3歳、母)で参加しました。パラセールに参加した経験があるのは妻だけでしたので初めはどんなことになるだろうか緊張をしていましたが、スタッフの方の親切な対応とユーモアで和み自分達の順番まであっという間になり風を切って大空へ舞い上がりました。海上高くから見たホノルルの町並みとダイアモンドヘッドの眺めは素晴らしく印象に強く残りました。また、パラセイルをしている写真を撮ってもらえるので記念に購入をしました。特に母は今年63歳であり「最初で最期のいい思い出になった」と喜んでいました。しかし、次の日に肩が痛いということであり緊張してパラソロのロープを渾身の力で握り締めていたようです。また、子供達が大きくなったらスタンダードではなくもっと上空高くあがれる方に参加したいと思います。

The children were overjoyed to touch a dolphin for the first time. In our case, we held the pectoral fins with both hands and swam on the dolphin's belly. Of course, there were also moments where the dolphin pushed the bodyboard and we got to kiss the dolphin for photos. Our session started at 11:00, but the water was indeed cold, and the children looked chilly. After the Dolphin Adventure, we enjoyed watching the dolphin show and shopping for souvenirs. We received discounts on meals and souvenirs with our wristbands, so it was a great deal.
初めてイルカにさわって、子ども達は大喜び。私達の場合は、背びれではなく胸びれを両手で持って、おなかに乗って泳ぎました。もちろんボディーボードを押してくれたり、写真撮影のためのイルカとのキスもありました。11:00からの回でしたが、やはり水が冷たく子ども達は寒そうでした。ドルフィンアドベンチャー参加後はイルカのショーを見たり、お土産を買ったりして過ごしました。リストバンドで食事もお土産も割引が受けれたので、とってもお得でした。

We experienced parasailing for the first time as a family of four, with a standard course of about 150 meters, which was more than enough for beginners. My wife and our two children (ages 6 and 9) loved it; it was thrilling, refreshing, and offered a fantastic view of Waikiki from above. I highly recommend this tour. The kids were so excited, saying they wanted to do it again and would definitely participate next time! Seeing their joy made me promise the whole family that we would join again. In our case, we were picked up around 10:30, took turns boarding the boat, and each group experienced about 15 minutes. Our family went up together into the bright blue sky, and we were dropped off at the hotel around 12:30.

On July 30, I participated with my 6-year-old twin daughters and my husband. We left the hotel at 10:30 and arrived in about 30 minutes. To prepare for our 1:15 PM session, we spent the morning watching dolphin training. We shared a teriyaki burger and hot dog as a family, and then headed to the meeting point at 1 PM. After using the restroom, we went downstairs where there are $1 lockers. After a brief explanation, we finally entered the pool where the dolphins were waiting. The instructor provided explanations in a mix of English and Japanese, so there was no need to worry about how to behave. The dolphins felt smooth on the surface, but I could also feel the texture of their muscles underneath, which was very moving. My two 6-year-old daughters were initially scared and couldn't touch the dolphins, but as they got used to it, they started interacting with the dolphins with smiles. (Otherwise, it would defeat the purpose of coming here!) We kissed and shook hands with the dolphins, and before we knew it, 45 minutes had passed. Not only the kids, but my husband and I also enjoyed it. I recommend it for families with small children.

We participated as a family of four, with one person (myself) specializing in photography, and we had a great time with our third grader and middle schooler along with their father.
We chose a plan without transportation and drove there with a rental car. Since the meeting time was apparently at 8:45 AM, I think it's best to plan to get on the freeway by 8:00 AM to drive with a relaxed mindset.
If you leave earlier, you can visit sightseeing spots along the way. Most of the parking lots are on the right side, so it might be easier to stop by on the way there.
As for the dolphins, I didn't expect them to come so close to us multiple times, so everyone was quite delighted. We were able to kiss and shake hands with them, and while waiting for others to do the same, we were giving commands to the dolphins, who would come close and perform various tricks around us. So, when the instructor gave the signal that it was okay to touch them, it seemed like we touched them many times.
Regarding photography, if you have a camera with a zoom lens, you can take beautiful, large pictures, but those with disposable cameras mentioned that they couldn't capture good shots.
Also, for $2, you can buy food to feed the sea turtles, which was quite fun, and the food disappeared quickly. The sea turtles that come up close are very eager to eat and provide a lot of enjoyment.
There were various shows, but we only watched the sea lion show before leaving the park. We then extended our trip to Kailua Beach Park, where we played until the evening, and afterward, we climbed Diamond Head on the way back.
The parking lot at Diamond Head is open until 6 PM, so we hurried up the trail. If you're confident in your physical fitness, I recommend giving it a try!

The instructor allows us to try multiple times, so if you have motivation and concentration, everyone will be able to stand on the surfboard. Surfing is a full-body workout, and I really felt the effects of my usual lack of exercise, as I got very tired in the second half. When I got too tired to paddle, the instructor would pull me to the wave point, so it was okay even if I was exhausted.
The price feels a bit high, but considering it's Honolulu, it's about what you'd expect.
I got lost in Honolulu because the directions to the meeting place written on the voucher were incorrect, and I ended up being about 15 minutes late. I realized the importance of not relying too much on the voucher and checking the meeting place on a map.
先生は何度もtryさせてくれるので、やる気と集中力があれば、皆サーフボードの上に立てるようになるでしょう。サーフィンは体全部を使う運動だったので、日ごろの運動不足がたたって、後半すごく疲れてしまいました。疲れてパドリング(手で漕いでの移動)できなくなると、先生が波のポイントまで引っ張って行ってくれるので疲れても大丈夫です。
ちょっと値段は高い気がしますが、ホノルル値段と思えば、まあこんなもんでしょう。
バウチャーに書いてあった集合場所への行き方が間違っていたので、ホノルルで迷子になって、15分程度集合時間に遅れてしまいました。バウチャーを過信せず、地図で集合場所を確認する必要があることを痛感しました。

Once on the ferry, we arrived at the diving point off Waikiki, where the submarine surfaced with white bubbles.
Holding onto the handrails tightly, I boarded the submarine. As I took my seat and peered through the round window, I was greeted by a large school of jackfish. The pamphlet mentioned that there would be an English guide, but perhaps because there were many Japanese guests, we had a Japanese guide instead. As we descended, colorful fish swam around the reef in abundance. At the shipwreck point, we spotted a sea turtle. To top it off, we encountered a group from a diving tour. It felt just like being in a dragon palace. Time flew by in an instant. On the return shuttle, since we could choose our destination, I got off at Ala Moana Shopping Center to do some shopping. It was a very satisfying day.
48人乗りの潜水艦に乗りました。
ホテルからブルーの送迎シャトルに乗り込み、ヒルトン・ハワイアン・ビレッジ前の連絡船桟橋へ。桟橋でグループごとの記念撮影(後で$20で売ってる)。連絡船に乗りワイキキ沖の潜水ポイントにつくと、白い泡と共に潜水艦が浮上してくる。
手すりにしっかりと捕まりながら乗船。席に着き丸い窓から海中を覗くと鰺の大群に出迎えられる。パンフでは、英語ガイドの時間帯だったけど、日本人が多いためか日本語ガイドだ。潜航していくと魚礁の周りには色鮮やかな魚たちがこれでもかというほど泳いでる。沈船のポイントでは、ウミガメ登場。おまけにダイビングツアーのご一行とも遭遇。まるで竜宮城気分。あっという間に時が過ぎてしまった。帰りのシャトルでは、目的地が選べたのでアラモアナ・ショッピングセンターで降りてお買い物。大満足の1日です。

It was amazing! We decided to go for the extreme ride with the mindset of going higher. I wouldn't recommend it for those with a fear of heights, but if you're okay with it, the extreme option is definitely the way to go! They took us up so high that we were at the same level or even above the top of Diamond Head. It was just the best. But when I looked down, the boats looked like tiny dots. I was a bit scared, but I'm glad I did it. I really felt like a bird, and I think it's very romantic for couples.
The boat ride was also fun, and the staff took lots of pictures, so it became a great memory. It's close to Waikiki, so I highly recommend it!
最高でした! どうせなら高く行こうというノリでエキストリームライドで。 高度恐怖症の方にはお勧めできませんが、全然大丈夫な方は絶対エキストリームがいいです! どこまで行くのってくらい飛ばしてくれました。 ダイアモンドヘッドの頂上と目の高さが一緒かそれより上に行った時は、も~最高。 でも下を見たらボートが豆粒の大きさ。 チョッとビビッたけど、やって良かったです。 本当に鳥になった気分で、カップルにはとてもロマンチックでいいと思いますよ~。
ボートライドも面白かったですし、スタッフの方がたくさん写真を撮ってくれたのでいい思い出になりました。 ワイキキにも近いし、お勧めですよ~!

I made a reservation for the 9 AM tour and boarded a dedicated trolley at the bus stop in front of the hotel to head to the dock at Hilton Hawaiian Village. Once on the shuttle boat to the submarine, it was quite rocky, possibly due to the waves. After about 10 minutes, we arrived at the offshore submarine docking point, and passengers were divided among three submarines. Since we couldn't board each submarine directly, those boarding the third submarine had to wait nearly 30 minutes after leaving the port. On the way back, it was the reverse; passengers from the first submarine had to stay on the shuttle boat until the other two submarines surfaced and picked up their passengers, so it took longer than expected. Additionally, the shuttle boat swayed much more once we were offshore compared to when we were in the harbor, so those prone to seasickness should definitely take motion sickness medication. While I've mentioned some downsides, the experience after boarding the submarine and diving was absolutely amazing. The world visible through the windows was unlike anything I had ever seen, and even I, who usually hardly takes photos, found myself continuously pressing the shutter. Furthermore, the guide on my submarine provided explanations in Japanese, filled with jokes and lessons about the ocean, making the time fly by. While there is a risk of seasickness, I believe the rewards far outweigh it. I highly recommend it!!
朝9時の回を予約し、ホテル前のバス停で専用トロリーに乗り込みヒルトンハワイアンビレッジの船着き場へ向かいました。潜水艦へのシャトルボートに乗り込むと波があるせいか結構揺れました。10分ほどで沖合の潜水艦停泊ポイントに到着し、乗客は3隻の潜水艦に分かれて乗り込むのですが、それぞれの潜水艦に横付けしないと乗り込めないため、3隻めの潜水艦に乗る人は港を出てから30分近くかかってします。帰りはその逆で1隻めの潜水艦の乗客は残り2隻が浮上してそれらの乗客をピックアップするまでシャトルボートに乗っていなければならないので、思ったよりは時間がかかります。またシャトルボートは沖合に出たら港にいるときと比べ物にならないくらいに揺れるので船酔いしやすい人は酔い止め薬が必須でしょう。と、マイナス面ばかり書きましたが、潜水艦に乗り込んで潜行してからはすばらしい体験の連続です。窓から見える世界はこれまでに見たことのないもので、普段ほとんど写真を撮らない私ですらひっきりなしにシャッターを押してしまうほどでした。また、私の乗った潜水艦はガイドさんが日本語でいろいろと説明してくれて、ジョークあり海についてのお勉強ありで、とにかくあっという間に時間が過ぎました。船酔いというリスクはありますが、それを補って余りあるリターンがあると思います。絶対おすすめです!!

I was healed by the dolphins. It was the best! (*^_^*)
However, the pickup was quite late, and when we arrived at Sea Life Park, we immediately checked in and changed without any explanation. (-_-;) It was all so rushed that I didn't really understand what was happening, but I was comforted by the trainers and the dolphins. (^。^)
イルカに癒されました。最高ーでした。(*^_^*)
でもピックアップのときに時間がかなり遅く、シーライフパークに着くとすぐに受付、説明のないまま着替えて、(-_-;)すぐにプールにとあわただしくて、何がなんだかわからないままでしたが、
調教師のお兄さんとイルカたちに癒されたわ~。(^。^)

I participated in the Atlantis Premium Submarine Tour. This tour is different from scuba diving, as you can enjoy a diving experience safely and easily. You take a boat to the submarine that is anchored offshore, but it can be a bit rocky on the way, so those who are prone to motion sickness might want to take some medication beforehand. It's really great for families and couples!
アトランティスプレミアムサブマリンツアーに参加しました。
このツアーはスキューバーダイビングと異なり、安全に気軽に潜水ツアーを楽しめます。
沖に停泊している潜水艦までは船で行くのですが、そこに行くまでは揺れるため、弱い人は酔い止めを飲んでいった方がよさそうです。
ファミリーやカップルには本当によいですよ~!

We opted for a submarine tour since our parents couldn't dive. We were able to see many beautiful fish, which was very soothing. However, just watching and the fact that there were many of the same fish left us with the impression that it wouldn't hold our attention for a long time.
ダイビングができない親たちのために、潜水艦ツアーにしました。きれいな魚たちを沢山みることができて癒されました。でも、見ているだけなことと、同じ魚が多いということで、長い時間はもたないな、という印象です。

I participated, and it was great! I definitely want to join again. There were many Japanese staff members among the ground staff, so I had no worries about the pre-explanation. The dolphins work hard, and they push you vigorously while you're on the bodyboard, using their noses to help you surf. It's so much fun! I also participated in Dolphin Quest at a certain hotel on the Big Island, but there were no Japanese staff members, and I struggled quite a bit with understanding. It's definitely easier when you can communicate in Japanese.
参加しました。よかったーなー これはもう一度参加したいのです。グランドスタッフに日系の方が多く 事前の説明も不安有りません。イルカさんはがんばってお仕事しますし、なによりボディーボードに乗ったまま 鼻で足を押して サーフィングするまで 勢いよく押してくれます。楽しいですよー。 ドルフィンクエストとかは ハワイ島の某ホテルのにも参加しましたが、スタッフ方に日本人がおらず、かなりヒアリング苦戦します。はやり日本語が通じるのはやっぱり楽ですよ。

Touching dolphins directly was so exciting! They let us touch their mouths wide open, even their teeth, and they blew water out of their blowholes. Of course, we could touch their bellies and backs as much as we wanted. While dolphin watching can be done in various places, being able to interact with them directly is unique to this location. After rinsing off in a simple shower and changing in a basic changing area, there were also activities like feeding seals and sea turtles that you can't do elsewhere. There was just one downside. Although a Japanese staff member provides thorough explanations beforehand, it’s not guaranteed that a Japanese staff member will be in the pool, which can leave those who don’t understand English feeling confused about what the staff is saying. If that aspect could be improved, I think it would be a truly enjoyable tour.
イルカに直接触れるなんて!とてもエキサイティングでした。口を大きく開けて、歯まで触らせてくれたり、息をする穴からボッ!と潮を吹いてくれたり、もちろんお腹や背中には触り放題です。イルカウオッチングは色んな場所で出来ますが、直接触れ合うことが出来るのは、ここだけです。簡易シャワーを浴び、簡易脱衣所で着替えた後は、あざらしや海亀への餌付けなど、他では出来ないようなメニューもありました。難点は、ただひとつ。事前説明では日本人のスタッフが丁寧に何でも教えてくれますが、プールの中に日本人スタッフが入るとは限らず、英語が全くダメな世代にはスタッフに言われてる事が理解できずに戸惑うことも多く、その点が改善されれば、心底楽しめるツアーだと思います。

I participated in Dolphin Adventure (9:00 AM) the day before returning home. I was quite tired from all the fun I had the previous day, but strangely, after interacting with the dolphins, I felt my fatigue lift and my body felt lighter! A friend who joined me also mentioned that their shoulder pain, which had been severe before the activity, was gone by the end. It might have been the healing effect of the dolphins. I'm really glad I participated in this activity to wrap up my trip!
Sea Life Park is located by the ocean, and the scenery is truly beautiful! I think it's worth just visiting to take a walk while enjoying the view of the sea. After the activity, I was able to stroll around and enjoy the sea lion and dolphin shows, so I never got bored.
The activity had a Japanese instructor, which was reassuring. He was very engaging and made it a lot of fun. (He was a male instructor and quite impressive, even starring in the dolphin show!) All the other participants had great smiles both during and after the activity. Also, I can't swim at all (I'm a poor swimmer), but wearing a life jacket made it no problem at all. I had a really fun time swimming while holding onto the dolphin's fin, getting kisses, and watching them jump right in front of me, so I would give it five stars, but it was so good that I wanted to give it even more. After the activity, there was a DVD (49 dollars) and photo (29 dollars) for sale. It was a bit pricey, but I purchased them as a lifelong memory.
● For your reference... They offer locker rentals for 5 dollars. You need to show either your driver's license or hotel key at that time. There is a simple partition with a door next to the lockers where you can change, but I think it's better to wear your swimsuit underneath so you can get ready quickly. You can change there on your way back, so it might be a good idea to bring a change of clothes.
帰国の一日前にドルフィンアドベンチャー(9:00~)に参加しました。前日まで散々遊んでいたので疲れが溜まっていたのですがイルカに触れ合ったことにより不思議と疲れが取れて身体が軽くなったんです!一緒に参加した友人も参加前は肩こりがひどかったのですが終わってみると肩こりが治ったと言っていました。イルカの癒し効果があったのかもしれません。旅行の締めくくりにこのアクティビティに参加して本当によかったです♪
シーライフパークは海に面した所にあり、景色は本当に綺麗です!海を眺めがてら散歩のつもりで遊びに行くだけでも価値があると思います。アクティビティーが終わった後も散歩したり、アシカのショーやイルカのショーがあるので飽きずに過ごせました。
アクティビティーは日本人のインストラクターさんがいて安心です。すごく盛り上げてくださるので楽しかったです。(男性のインストラクターさんだったのですが、すごい方でイルカショーにもメインで出演されてました☆)他の参加者の方もみなさん参加中も終わった後もとても良い笑顔でした。あと、私は全く泳げない(かなづち)ですが、ライフジャケットを着たので全然問題ありませんでした。イルカのヒレにつかまって泳いだり、キスしてもらったり、目の前でジャンプを見せてもらえたりと本当に楽しい持間が過ごせたので星は5個で最高ですが、それ以上の点数を付けたくなるぐらい良かったです。終わったあとにDVD(49ドル)と写真(29ドル)の販売があり、少し高いですが一生の思い出なので購入しました。
●ご参考までに・・・5ドルでロッカーの貸し出しをしてくれます。その時に免許証かホテルの鍵を見せなければいけませんでした。ロッカーの隣に着替える事ができる簡単なドア付の仕切りがありますが、行きはすぐに準備ができるように水着を下に着ていかれた方が良いと思います。帰りはそこで着替える事ができるので着替えを持って行かれたらいいかもしれません。
