Oahu
It was my first time back in Hawaii in three years, and my first time participating in this cruise in three years as well. The weather was probably the best I've ever experienced. The ocean seemed to be clearer than before. Wearing masks is optional. If you're concerned, it might be a good idea to bring your own mask and snorkel. Prices have gone up compared to before, but the easy snorkeling off Waikiki and the enjoyable cruising experience are worth it.
3年ぶりのハワイ、3年ぶりのこのクルーズへの参加でした。今までで多分1番のお天気。海がキレイになったような気がします。マスク着用は自由です。気になる方はマイマスク、シュノーケル持参がいいかもしれません。以前と比べて値上がっていますが、ワイキキ沖でのお手軽シュノーケル、気持ちいいクルージングは価値ありです。
Great company, great guides and great weather! First time parasailing and will for sure be signing up again!
This past weekend was mine and my daughters first time at Coral Crater Adventure Park doing the 3-line zip line tour, and it was a really fun experience! Definitely one of the most memorable experiences of our whole trip. We had tour guides Ethan and Holly, and they were literally amazing from start to finish on how they gave instructions, information about the establishment and zip lining, and overall great characters to be around. They made us feel comfortable, confident, like we were all a bunch of friends out having a good time on a nature adventure, and their jokes took the edge off of any fears of heights, etc that we had. At the establishment, there’s a lot of places to take photos. There’s some hibiscus bushes, plumeria trees, banana tree, mini goat coral and lots of chickens and roosters running around. I’d definitely recommend wearing shoes you REALLY don’t mind getting dirty lol because they will get muddy. This place is an experience I’d recommend.
Friendly staff. First time surfing experience feels good my kids love it.
Thank you Kexi!! It was a great time taking you and the kids surfing; you all rocked it out there. We are so glad you enjoyed your time with us, and we hope to see you back again soon. Aloha from the whole team!!
You can ride horses while enjoying the beautiful sea of the North Shore! The instructions are in English, but I think you can figure out how to ride. I took my 9-year-old child, and they had a great time. They also took a lot of pictures, which made for wonderful memories!
North shoreのきれいな海を見ながら馬に乗れます!
英語のみの案内ですが乗り方などはなんとなくわかると思います。
9歳の子どもを連れて行きましたが、とても楽しんでいました。
写真もたくさん撮ってくれていい思い出になりました!
The sea was beautiful and very pleasant. The waves were rough, and I got seasick. If you're not good with boats, you might want to be careful.
海も綺麗で非常に気持ちよかったです。
波が荒くて船酔いしてしまいました。
船が苦手な方は気をつけた方がいいかもしれません。
This is my third time parasailing, with the first time in Hawaii and the second time in Guam. The parasailing in Hawaii was great, but the experience in Guam was very disappointing. Parasailing in Hawaii is definitely the best.
3回目のパラセイリングですが、1回目がハワイ島で2回目がグアムでした。
1回目のハワイ島でのパラセイリングが良くて、グアムで乗りましたが非常にショボくてがっかりしました。
やっぱりHawaiiでのパラセイリングは最高です。
From pick up point to going home, the tour was incredible.
On arrival there was time to look at the other attractions such as the farmer's market, the petting zoo (get to pat a tortoise?)
I would say our guide had to be really good, if not, it is hard to appreciate locations (especially they are just views, really). Our tour guide would make up 85% of the tour.
This tour is recommended if you are a movie/TV fan.
We arrived early so the receptionist said they could fit us in sooner than our appointment so we agreed. It was fine at first once we got on the boat but my excitement started to fade once he started fitting me for my harness. I am a plus size female but the harness “fitted” to me was way too big. It won’t be apparent until we’re in the air, unfortunately. I did the experience with my mom since we came to Hawaii for her 55th birthday. Once in the air, it was very obvious my harness was way too big. If I didn’t hold on for dear life, I would’ve probably fallen back. I didn’t feel safe or secure. The whole experience caused me undue stress & anxiety especially since we were at 1000 feet. The guys on the boat were nice, no complaints about them except for the fact they dipped the other participants 3 or 4 times while they only dipped us once in the ocean. When we docked, I told the receptionist & she dismissed my concern. Not happy with the harness sizing; the one dip in the ocean AND how my concern was handled. I wouldn’t recommend this company. Go with another company!
So fun! This is one of my favorite boats. I liked that it had a covered cabin area for those who wanted to get out of the sun for a bit. The start time mid-morning was great to have a bit of a sleep-in. We headed out to Turtle Canyon, about 5-10 minutes sail from the shoreline. The snorkel gear and fins were good quality and we saw TONS of turtles!! After snorkeling for about an hour, the crew sailed the Waikiki coastline to Diamond Head and we had lunch while we sailed. This one also comes with 2 drinks. The boat was pretty spacious so we had room to move around. Overall, great experiences & great crew!!
100ft underwater. We saw turtles, fish, sunken ships, and sunken planes! Visibility on the day we went was crystal clear and we took tons of photos. I went with my good friend and she brought her 4-year-old. He absolutely loved it!! One thing though, the shuttle boat from shore to the submarine drop zone can be really windy. I packed a jacket which the kiddo was glad that I need since it got a little breezy. Once we were in the submarine, it's fully air-conditioned so I'd have a light jacket if you get cold easily.
Aloha !

A hui hou (until next time).
Yes, it's early. But, we LOVED the early sail. Less boats on the water and calmer ocean conditions. If you're looking for a unique cultural experience, this is it. We did the morning cruise and were the only 2 guests on the boat which was really cool. The boat limits capacity to 6-guests. As a local resident, I really liked how the two main hosts of the cultural experience and the Captain were Kamehameha graduates. This boat also offers midday cruises and sunset. Overall, the morning sail was calm and one of the truly unique sails here on Oahu.
Sharks!! Yes...SHARKS. And yes, you CAN see them from the boat. It's wild to see such majestic creatures in their natural habitat. You go a few miles offshore for this trip so it does get choppy. We did an early morning tour which has calmer ocean conditions than the later tours. And I am so glad we did! We only had a super light breakfast before going out (think a bit of fruit, light bites only).
8 ziplines, 2 rappels, and 3 sky bridges. This course has the longest zipline on Oahu with one of the zips being 1/2 mile long. I loved having ocean views throughout the ziplining experience. There were water stations throughout the course. We did the afternoon zipline and I'm so glad I wore plenty of sunscreen! Prepare to work up a sweat as you go throughout the course. There's stairs for some of the zipline platforms. Overall, really nice ocean views, friendly staff & had a blast!
Excellent tour. Guide was funny and knowledgeable. I highly endorse rhe tour.
Aloha Ross !

Even though it rained during our cruise we still had a great time because of the crew memebrs! Affordable great drinks (1 was free) and good music! Definitely recommend booking through them and will do it again when we come back to Hawaii! Shout out to Sarah for giving her rain jacket to the lady next to me so she wouldn't get wet!
Amber was a great instructor. She provided clear instructions on how to put on the equipment properly, breathing techniques and made us feel at ease.
It was a better tour than I expected. The scenery was really wonderful. However, I can't really recommend the farm tour. I'm glad I chose the ferry instead.
予想より良いツアーでした。景色がとても素晴らしかった。ただ農場周りのツアーはあまりおすすめできない。フェリーのほうを選んでよかった。
I booked the earliest time, but I was informed that it was already full, so I was able to book the 11:30 slot instead. It seems to be a popular tour! However, the pickup time remained the same, and I ended up having to kill about two hours at a Croatian lunch. If I could have joined another tour during that time, it would have been a ★5 experience.
I really enjoyed the horseback riding. The two hours of riding were great, but by the end, my rear and legs were a bit sore. It would have been even better if there had been some talk about Jurassic Park along the way. Still, the breathtaking views are something you don't get to see often. The mountains and the sea were absolutely stunning.
1番早い時間を申し込んだのですが既に一杯との連絡があり、その後の11:30に申し込めました。人気のツアーのようです♡でも、送迎時間は変わらずで結局クロアチアランチで約2時間も時間を潰さなければいけませんでした。その間他のツアーに参加出来たら★5だったんですけどね。
乗馬は満喫出来ました。たっぷり2時間の乗馬で最後は少しお尻や足が辛かったです。本当は途中でジュラシックパークのお話とかがあればもっと良かったんですけどネ。でも、あの絶景はなかなか見ることは出来ません。山も海も素晴らしい景色でした。
We made a reservation with my husband for our honeymoon trip.
Although the explanation was in English, I was able to participate without any issues by using gestures and observing other guests.
There were 10 of us in total, including my husband and me, and everyone was very friendly, making it a lot of fun!
While other guests were parasailing, the boat rocked quite a bit, so if you're feeling uneasy, I recommend taking motion sickness medication!
The photos were $40.00, but I declined because the reviews from others weren't very good.
The scenery was absolutely amazing, and I was moved by the sense of openness and the views that I had never experienced before!
新婚旅行で主人と予約をしました。
英語での説明でしたが、ジェスチャーや他のお客さんを見て、問題なく参加できました。
私たち夫婦も合わせて10人での参加でしたが、皆さんとても気さくでとても盛り上がりました!
他のお客さんがパラセイリングをしている間はかなり船が揺れるため、不安であれば酔い止めの服用をおすすめします!
写真は$40.00でしたが、他の皆さんの口コミがあまり良くなかったため、断りました。
景色はとても最高で味わったことのない開放感と眺めに感動しました!
That's disappointing! It seemed like there were fewer people catching fish than others. It didn't feel like there was much effort to help us catch fish in the two and a half hours.
残念!
他の人も釣れている人の方が少なかったかなぁ。
2時間半で頑張って釣らせようという感じはあんまりしなかったです。
I could hardly understand the explanation since it was in English only. The guide mentioned that headphones with explanations in Japanese would be available, but when I asked, I was told it was English only. I got bored just looking at the simple underwater scenery.
英語オンリーで、説明がほとんど理解できませんでした。案内には、日本語で解説したヘッドホンが使用出来ると書いてあったので、尋ねると英語オンリーとのこと。単純な海底の景色を見ているだけで、飽きてしまいました。
アロハ、レビューを共有していただきありがとうございます。全体的な体験が期待に満たなかったことを知り、とても残念に思います。また、ご不便をおかけしたことを心よりお詫び申し上げます。貴重なフィードバックを感謝し、改善すべき点についての詳細をリーダーシップチームと共有しました。すべてのお客様に楽しい体験を提供できるよう努めてまいります。マハロ。
Aloha, and thank you for sharing your review. We are very disappointed to learn that your overall experience was less than exceptional and we sincerely apologize for any inconvenience you experienced. We appreciate your valuable feedback, and we have shared your review with our leadership team as we hope to offer all of our guests an enjoyable experience. Mahalo for sharing the details about areas that we may improve.
Honestly, I was a bit nervous about learning how to surf. My partner really wanted to try and we set up time with the Ohana Surf Project; let me tell you, it was worth it. The team at Ohana Surf Project are knowledgeable, fun and super helpful. They teach you all the fundamentals, make you feel comfortable in the water and are with you every step of the way. Kevin and Romeo were incredibly patient and friendly, especially for someone uncoordinated like me. If you’re telling yourself that you couldn’t do this, you can, and they can show you. They took someone like me, who can barely tie my shoes without falling over, and put me up on a board surfing a wave. If you’re reading this review trying to find the best team to help you, look no further, just book it!
Mahalo Ohana Surf Project!
Jacob, thank you so much for your lovely review! We are so glad that you enjoyed your time with us and appreciate our teaching methods. You both did so well!! We'll extend your love to Kevin and Romeo, and we hope to surf with you and Travis again soon!!
Aloha from the OSP team! :)
I participated in a horseback riding experience. I was a bit anxious because I couldn't understand much of the staff's explanations in English upon arrival, but I managed to get through it. There was one Japanese staff member who was very helpful at that time. When you participate in the experience, they lend you items to put your phone, wallet, passport, and water in, so that's not a problem. You can leave any other unnecessary luggage in a locker. The rental fee for the locker is $5, and you can take things in and out as many times as you need, so it's a good idea to store your items before the horseback riding experience.
After that, we watched a video explanation in Japanese before moving on to the horseback riding. The horse handling is easy, and the horses are smart, so I don't think you need to worry too much. The horseback riding experience lasts for two hours, but sitting on the horse for that long can make your backside quite sore, so it might be good to have something like a towel to ease the pressure. Other than that, it was incredibly fun.
There is about two hours of time before and after the riding starts, but if you look at the horses or shop for souvenirs, the time passes quickly.
乗馬体験に参加しました。
到着してからスタッフの説明などが英語であまり意味を理解する事ができず不安でしたがなんとかなりました。1人だけ日本人スタッフがいたのでその時はとても頼りになりました。常備体験をするときは、携帯、財布、パスポートや水など入れる物を貸してくれるので大丈夫です。その他の不要な荷物はロッカーに預けられます。ロッカーのレンタル料は5ドルです。何回でも出し入れ出来ますので乗馬体験の前に預けましょう。
その後は日本語ビデオの説明を見て乗馬体験に移ります。馬の操作も簡単で馬も賢いのであまり心配はいらないと思います。2時間の乗馬体験ですが、2時間も馬に座っているとお尻がとても痛くなるので何かタオルなどお尻に負担がかからないのがあったらいいかもしれません。その他は最高に楽しいです。
乗馬開始前と開始後は前後2時間くらい時間がありますが馬とかお土産とか見ていればあっという間に時間が経ちました。
Amazing tour. The pickup was very smooth. Mike was a really nice guy with a lot of knowledge aviut the different plants, fruits, animals and the history of the island. The hike is made for everyone, not to hard but also not too easy! A must do when on Oahu!
Top notch! We had so much fun with this company on our first parasailing adventure. The women in the booth were so kind, friendly and informative and the Captain and First Mate were funny, kind, caring and very professional. We felt safe and relaxed the whole time and the parasailing on Waikiki was just breathtaking! 10 out of 10! Highly recommend!
We were able to experience it as a group of three and fly together. The reception and during the ride were mostly in English. However, when they realized we were Japanese, they mixed in a little Japanese during the explanations.
I read reviews and took motion sickness medication before boarding, but I think it's unnecessary unless you are extremely sensitive.
Sunscreen is a must for early morning reservations. If you're particularly concerned, a hat with a string to prevent it from flying off is convenient.
At the end of the flight, being splashed with water up to my waist felt amazing. If you want to take videos, having a waterproof case for your phone is reassuring, even if you don't have a GoPro.
I requested optional photos for $40. They transferred them to my phone on the spot, and I also received an SD card. The photos were very vivid, and I'm glad I ordered them.
3人で体験、3人で飛ぶことができました。
当日の受付・乗車中などほぼ英語です。
ただ日本人と分かると説明の時は少し日本語を混ぜて話してくれます。
口コミを読んで酔い止めを飲んで乗船しましたが、
極端に弱くなければいらないと思います。
朝早い時間の予約から日焼け止めは必須。
特に気になる方は飛ばないように紐のついた帽子があると便利です。
飛行の最後、腰のあたりまで水に落としてくれるのが最高に気持ちよかった。
動画を撮りたい方はGoProじゃなくても防水のケースがあると安心して携帯で撮影できますよ。
40ドルでオプションの写真をお願いしました。
その場で携帯に取り込んでくれて、SDカードももらえます。
とても臨場感のある写真ばかりで頼んでよかったです。
There are six zip lines and a lot of activities like an obstacle course. There was a female staff member who had lived in Japan, and we were able to have a fun conversation. All the staff were cheerful and made it very enjoyable. It was my first bungee experience, and even the mini version was quite thrilling. It took some courage to take that first step, but it was a lot of fun.
ジップライン6本にアスレチックと盛りだくさんです。日本に住んでいたという女性スタッフがいて楽しく会話することができました。
スタッフは皆さん明るくとても楽しませてくれます。初めてのバンジー体験でしたが、ミニでも十分迫力ありました。一歩踏み出すまでに勇気が要りましたが楽しかったです。
It was located away from Waikiki, so it took about 40 minutes by taxi. We participated as a group of five, and it was a beautifully sunny day with clear skies and a lovely sea. We moved out to the ocean by small boat. First, we tried jet skiing, which took some time to get used to, but the young couple and my son were speeding along and said it was the most fun. Next was the bumper tube, where we lay on a board-like float connected to the jet ski, clinging on while being tossed around for 15 minutes. We were screaming and cheering while enduring it, and my arms got tired. Finally, we did parasailing, which involved a rapid ascent from the water's surface. It felt safe even when letting go, and we enjoyed a moment of being in the air like a swing. My wife expressed some anxiety before trying it, but it turned out to be a really enjoyable experience. If there's another opportunity, I would definitely like to do it again. Even first-timers can enjoy it with peace of mind. I highly recommend it.
ワイキキから離れた場所でしたので、タクシーで40分程度かかりました。
5人で参加しましたが、よく晴れた日で、海も空も綺麗で、沖まで小舟で移動しました。まずはジェットスキーですが、なれるまでに時間がかかってしまいましたが、若い娘夫婦と、息子はガンガン飛ばして、一番楽しかったと言ってました。 次のバンパーチューブは、ジェットスキーにつながれた板状の浮きに横たわって、しがみつきながら、振り回されながら、15分過ごすのですが、キャーキャー、ウォーウォー言いながらひたすら耐える感じでした。腕が疲れました。最後はパラセーリングですが、海面から急上昇し、手放ししても安心でき、ひと時の空中ブランコ楽しめました。やってみるまで、すこし不安だと家内は申していましたが、ずいぶん楽しい経験でした。またの機会があれば、ぜひやってみたいです。初めての方も安心して楽しめますよ。お勧めします。
Super fun experience. The boat and crew were friendly and their pina coladas were EXCELLENT.
The only thing that kept this from being an outstanding experience was that as a solo participant, I was a little left out. Drink orders went out and someone finally noticed I didn’t have one and took care of it. Then, towards the end, another staff member went around asking everyone if they wanted their photos taken and I wasn’t included. At the end of the day, it’s no biggie and I don’t think it was intentional but just wanted to mention it for consideration. I think it’s just one of those things that happen to solo travelers here and there.
Otherwise, loved it!
