We chose the best day during our stay, but honestly, the sandbar wasn't as shallow as we expected. However, fortunately, the weather was great, and we got to see truly wonderful views, so I am very satisfied.
When selecting a tour, it seems that encountering a shallower sandbar depends on the tour duration and the timing of low tide.
It was fun.
私達は、滞在期間の中で一番良い条件の日を選びましたが、正直期待していたほどサンドバーは浅くなかったです。でも幸運なことに天候に恵まれて本当に素晴らしい景色が見られたので、私は大満足です。
ツアーを選ぶにあたって、より浅いサンドバーに出会えるのは、ツアー時間と、浅い干潮時の時刻が近いことだそうです。
楽しかったです。

I chose the day with the best conditions during my stay, as it was the closest to low tide time. Luckily, it was sunny, and I was able to see a beautiful, clear ocean.
On the day we participated, there were a lot of people, and two boats went out together. After arriving at the sandbar, we split into those who wanted to relax and those who wanted to snorkel. The snorkeling felt like everyone was swimming in a line in the same spot, so depending on the number of participants, it might feel a bit lacking for those who want to swim while observing slowly. However, I enjoyed it overall because I got to see beautiful scenery.
干潮の浅い日が狙い目ということで、干潮時間がツアー時間に一番近い、滞在中で一番条件が良い日を選びました。ラッキーなことに、晴天で、綺麗で透き通った海を見ることができました。
私たちが参加した日は人数が大変多くて、2台のボートが一緒に出ました。サンドバーに到着した後、ゆっくり過ごしたい人、シュノーケルをしたい人で分かれます。シュノーケリングは、みんなで一斉に同じ場所を一列で泳いでいく感じだったので、参加人数にもよりますが、ゆっくり観察しながら泳ぎたい人には物足りなく感じるかもしれません。キレイな景色が見れたので、全体的に私はとっても楽しめました。

Previously, I boarded the Mai Tai Catamaran to see the sunset sinking on the horizon. I was moved then, so this time I boarded to watch the Friday fireworks at Hilton. Since Hilton Village is my regular accommodation, I had been watching the Friday fireworks from the beach and poolside in front of Hilton Village, but seeing the fireworks from the sea was something special. I sat on the port side, but when we started moving, I realized we were facing the opposite side of the beach and thought I might have made a mistake. However, we stopped facing the fireworks venue, so I had a good view. If you sit close to the bow, prepared to get splashed by the waves, you can see the fireworks well. The crew only spoke English but were kind. Because of that, I ended up drinking quite a bit—Mai Tai, beer, and white wine—and then I needed to go to the restroom, which was a bit of a problem. Upon closer inspection, I noticed there was a window on the port side, and when I went to check it out, I found that it was the restroom.
以前、水平線に沈む夕日を見にマイタイ・カタマラン号に乗船しました。その時も感動しましたので、今回はヒルトンの金曜花火を見るために乗船しました。ヒルトンビレッジが常宿なので金曜花火はヒルトンビレッジ前の浜辺やプールサイドから見ていましたが、海上から見る花火はまた格別でした。左舷の席に座りましたが、走り出すと浜辺と反対側と気づき失敗したかなと思いましたが、花火会場に舳先を向けて止まったのでよく見えました。波を被るのを覚悟で舳先近くに座れば花火がよく見えます。クルーは英語しか話せませんが親切でした。そのためマイタイ、ビール、白ワインと結構飲んでしまいトイレに行きたくなり困ってしまいました。よく見ると左舷に窓があり、そこに潜る人を見つけ、見に行くとそこがトイレでした。

Since it was a VIP course, we started in a lounge-like area with Mai Tais and self-service snacks (such as prosciutto with pineapple, fruit skewers with melon, macadamia nuts, and potato chips). After that, we moved to our dining seats and enjoyed a course meal. We had informed Veltra in advance that we were bringing our one-year-old daughter, so a seat for her was also prepared.
During the meal, our daughter was able to participate in a treasure hunt game, which made her happy as she could walk around the venue (sitting still for the entire meal would have been boring for a one-year-old).
After the meal, the show began. With the VIP course, we could watch the show from our dining seats (on the first floor) while continuing to enjoy our drinks. For the regular course, it seemed that guests finished their meals outside the venue before entering the second-floor seating.
The show started with hula dancing, followed by an Elvis Presley impersonation show, a Michael Jackson impersonation show, and finally, fire dancing and hula dancing. All of it was wonderful, and we had a great time. I'm not sure if the quality of the Michael impersonation was high, but it was enjoyable nonetheless.
Last year, we watched a hula dance show at the Polynesian Cultural Center, which was a more traditional show that showcased Hawaiian culture without any sexy costumes (and that was good in its own way). In contrast, this show was a complete entertainment show with sexy and beautiful hula costumes, and it also allowed for a lively rock atmosphere, making us feel like we were in America! While I didn't know many of the songs, I still had a lot of fun.
Since there is a rock segment, the time for hula dancing isn't very long, so if you want to focus solely on hula dancing, I would recommend other shows. However, if you want to enjoy both American-style music and hula dancing, this show is highly recommended. The location is also at the Royal Hawaiian Center, so for those staying in Waikiki, it's within walking distance, which is a great point for efficient use of time.
VIPコースでしたので、初めにラウンジのようなところでマイタイとセルフサービスのおつまみ(生ハムパイナップル、メロン等の果物串、マカデミアナッツ、ポテトチップス)をいただきました。
それから、各自食事の席まで移動し、コース料理をいただきました。
我が家は1歳の娘連れであることをベルトラさんを通して事前に伝えていたため、娘の席も用意していただいていました。
食事の間に娘は宝探しゲームに参加させていただき、会場を歩くことができて喜んでいました。(1歳の娘にとって食事中ずっとイスに座っているのは退屈なので)
食事が終わると、ショーが始まります。
VIPコースは食事の席(1階席)でそのまま観覧するため、引き続き飲み物を飲みながら見ました。
普通のコースだと、会場の外で食事を終えてから2階席に入場していたようです。
ショーはフラダンスから始まり、エルビスプレスリーの(ものまね)ショー、マイケルジャクソンの(ものまね)ショー、最後にファイヤーダンスとフラダンスという感じで進みました。
どれもとても素敵で、楽しい時間を過ごすことができました。
マイケルのものまねのクオリティーが高かったのかどうかは謎ですが(笑)、楽しめたのでありだと思います。
昨年はポリネシア・カルチャーセンターのフラダンスショーを見ましたが、そちらは、セクシーな衣装などはなしでハワイの文化をしっかり見せる正統派なショーという感じでした。(それはそれでよかったです)
それに対してこちらは完全なエンターテイメントショーで、フラダンスの衣装もセクシーで素敵で、同時に、ロックで盛り上がることもでき、「アメリカにきたって気がする!(笑)」という気分を味わうことができました。
知っている曲は多くありませんでしたが、それでもとても楽しめました。
ロックの時間がある分、フラダンスの時間は長くありませんので、フラダンスだけをじっくり見たい方は他のショーをお勧めしますが、アメリカっぽい音楽もフラダンスも両方楽しみたい方にはお勧めです。
場所もロイヤルハワイアンセンターなので、ワイキキに宿泊している方は徒歩で行けますので、時間が効率的に使えるのも良い点ではないでしょうか。
Thank you very much for visiting us. We are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed your time here. We sincerely look forward to welcoming you back when you come to Hawaii again.

I made a reservation for the last day in Hawaii on Friday. I was really looking forward to it, but… there was no information about when, what, or where things were happening. It seems there was live music, but in the end, I couldn't see or hear anything.
The dinner buffet guests were on the 1st and 2nd floors, while the appetizer guests were on the 3rd floor. After boarding, we were taken to the 1st floor, and seating was free, but there was no guidance on that either, so everyone was just wandering around aimlessly.
For some reason, it seemed that non-Japanese guests had arrived early and had already taken the window seats and were eating. I had also made a reservation for a children's chair since I was attending with a small child, but since there was no assigned table, they didn't bring it until I asked. The child was really looking forward to the hula dance, so it was truly disappointing.
In the end, I couldn't see it, but after watching the fireworks, I caught a glimpse of guests who seemed to be feeling good after drinking and were dancing with the dancers, which felt like the atmosphere of a bar or club. The fireworks and night view were beautiful, but it was really disappointing.

I will share my experience from the perspective of an intermediate to advanced level diver who has participated in dolphin swim tours in various locations, holding a dive master certification.
- Good points:
A Japanese guide accompanies the tour. The day is packed with activities such as dolphin swimming, stand-up paddleboarding, hula experiences, a departure ceremony, and group photos, allowing for a lot of fun in just one day.
- Bad points:
The number of participants is too high (around 40 people), which creates a disparity between those who enter the water first and those who enter last, affecting the chances of seeing dolphins. It would likely be more satisfying with a maximum of about 15 people. I couldn't determine how close I could get to the dolphins, and while I was waiting near the pod, I was scolded harshly by the local staff for blocking their path. It seems that the only thing allowed is to float and observe from above, so those wanting to take photos should be cautious.
After coming out of the water, things get quite hectic, and you have to change in the restroom without being able to take a shower. (On diving shop boats in places like Okinawa, it's normal to have showers on board.) The lunch provided is not a bento but rather snacks and a drive-thru from Burger King, which is insufficient. Moreover, since you eat on the bus on the way back, the smell in the vehicle can make it difficult for those prone to motion sickness to eat. There is no dry area on the boat, so bags brought along can get wet. (At the very least, they could have put up a net on the ceiling to address this.) Given that there are many beginners, I think this is quite a significant downside. There were quite a few people who arrived with regular bags that ended up soaking wet.

・良い点
日本語ガイドが同伴
ドルフィンスイム、SUPなどのマリンアクティビティ、フラ体験、出航セレモニー、集合写真など内容てんこ盛りで1日で楽しめる点
・悪い点
一回の人数が多すぎる(40人程度)ので、最初に入水した人と最後に入水した人で、イルカに会える人とそう出ない人が差が出る。(せいぜい15人くらいにした方が満足度が高いはず)
イルカにどこまで近づいていいのかが判断できず、ほかのドルフィンスイムのツアーのつもりで群れの近くまで潜って待機していたら現地スタッフに水上でこっぴどく怒られた。(進路を塞いだと判断された模様)上からぷかぷか眺めるくらいしか許されなそうなので、写真を撮りたい方は要注意。
海から上がった後がかなり慌ただしく、シャワーも浴びられないままトイレで着替えてバスになる必要がある。(沖縄などのダイビングショップの船は船内でシャワー浴びれるのが普通)
ランチがお弁当などではなく、スナックと、バーガーキングのドライブスルーなので少ない。しかも帰りのバスの中で食べるので車内の匂いもあり酔いやすい人は食べていなかった。
船上にドライエリアが用意されていないので、持ってきたバックなどが濡れる。(せめて天井にネットを張って対処するくらいはできるはず)初心者が多いにも関わらず、これはかなりのマイナスポイントと思います。普通のバックできてしまい、バックがびしょびしょになっている方が結構いました。

Thanks for making our arrival in Honolulu and getting to the hotel so easy. We liked it so much we booked our return to the airport after our cruise. We had to specify a time for our trip when we made the reservation, so we picked a time late enough to be sure we would be off the ship in time for the trip. We were ready to go an hour early and thought we would have to wait around until the scheduled time. To our delight we were able to take an earlier shuttle and have more time at the Bishop museum.

It was a stroke of luck to see wild dolphins, and not only that, they swam below us. I felt that luck played a big role since it depended on anticipating the direction the dolphins would swim and their speed. I’m glad I participated because they made sure everyone could see them as much as possible.
野生のイルカのため運になりますが、イルカを見れただけでなく下を泳いで行きました。イルカが泳ぐ方向に先回りをし来てくれるのを待つことと、イルカの泳ぐ速度にも依存するため、運も大きいと感じました。できる限りみんなが見れるように考えてくれているので、参加してよかったです。

I was able to create wonderful memories in Hawaii! The weather was sunny on the day, and there were various attractions from intense slides to lazy rivers and wave pools, which made it a lot of fun! This time, I only had a one-day pass and transportation, but I was personally very satisfied. Soft drinks like cola were around five dollars, and food like pizza sets and hamburger sets were about ten dollars. Since the lockers and restaurants are close, I don't think it would be a hassle to go get money to make purchases. If you want to eat and drink without worrying about the price, I think it's better to add the options.
ハワイで楽しい思い出を増やすことが出来ました!
当日は晴れていて、スライダー系の激しいものから流れるプールや波が起きるプールなど色々あって楽しかったです!
今回は1日パスと送迎だけでしたが、個人的には大満足です。

I chose this tour based on checking the tide and finding a good location at a reasonable time. I saw plenty of sea turtles, but I would have been a bit more satisfied if we had gone to the sandbar before the tide rose. The water level was rising quickly, and by the time we left, it had become quite deep. During snorkeling, I could see the fish well, but there were so many people that it felt like a hot spring. I ended up seeing more people's feet than fish. Overall, the weather was nice, and I saw what I expected, so it was as anticipated. It has a cliché feel, but it seems to be a must-do tour.
潮位を調べて、かつ、できるだけましな時間で場所も良い、という観点からこのツアーを選びました。ウミガメはたくさん見れましたが、先に潮位が高くなる前にサンドバーへ行ってくれると、もう少し満足できたような。みるみる水位が上がってきて、帰るころにはかなり深くなっていました。シュノーケリングでは魚がしっかり見れましたが、あまりにも人が多くて、温泉状態。魚より人の足の方をたくさん見た、という感じです。一応、天気も良く、見るもの見たので、予想どおりというところでしょうか。ベタなところですが外せないツアーなのかな、という印象です。

Swimming with dolphins has been a dream of mine for many years. I participated in the tour with a bit of sleepiness from the early morning departure, but I had a great time listening to the staff share many stories about Hawaii and dolphins during the journey; the hour flew by. After boarding, everyone enjoyed chatting together as the captain guided the boat out to sea! I thought we might see only two or three dolphins at most, but when we arrived at the dolphin spot, we encountered over 30 dolphins, and my excitement skyrocketed. We also met sea turtles and gentle sharks, feeling like Ariel♪ After snorkeling, we enjoyed pork rice balls and snacks on the boat while dancing the hula on the way back. From start to finish, it was a truly fun and happy time. I would love to participate again the next time I come to Hawaii.
イルカと泳ぐのが長年の夢でした。朝早くの出発で少し眠さもありながらツアーに参加しましたが、道中にスタッフさんからハワイやイルカについてのお話を沢山聞けて、すごく楽しく1時間があっという間でした。乗船後もみんなで楽しく会話しながら、船長さんの赴くままに船は出航!!!!イルカに会えても、せいぜい2.3頭だろうと思っていましたが、いざイルカ達のポイントに着くと、30頭以上のイルカ達に出会えて、テンションが上がりまくりました。ウミガメや大人しいサメにも出会え、気分はアリエル状態♪シュノーケル後は、船上でポークおにぎりやおかしを食べ、フラダンスを踊りながらの帰航。初めから最後まで、全てがとても楽しい幸せな時間でした。次にハワイに来る時も、また参加したいと思います。

One of the things on my bucket list was to swim with dolphins, and I made it happen. The weather was refreshing, the waves were calm, and the sea was very clear, making it the perfect day for the tour. The staff were bright and cheerful, which made for a fun experience throughout. I got to see a large group of dolphins and even met a sea turtle; it was truly an amazing time. Waking up early is tough, but I was a bit jet-lagged anyway, and I could sleep on the bus during the ride, so it wasn't too hard. We returned by early afternoon, allowing us to spend the rest of the day meaningfully. One thing to note is that if you are prone to motion sickness, it might be a good idea to take some medication, as there seemed to be a difference between those who did and didn't.
死ぬまでにやりたいことリストに入ってたひとつ、イルカと泳ぐこと。実現しました。天気も爽快、波も穏やか、海の透明度も高い日だったそうで、最高のツアー日だったそうです。スタッフの方々の明るさ、陽気さもあり、終始楽しい時間になりました。イルカの大群にも会えたし、ウミガメにも会えたし、本当に最高の時間でした。朝早いのは辛いけど、そもそも少し時差ボケ気味だったのと、移動中にバスの中で寝れるので、そんなに苦ではないです。昼過ぎには戻れるので、その後の1日も有意義に過ごせます。ひとつだけ注意点があるとすると、車などに酔いやすい人は、酔い止めを飲んだ方がいいかもしれません。飲んでる人と飲んでない人で差があった模様。。

The sailing vessel was very impressive and incredibly well maintained and professionally operated. I am a sailing enthusiast and this catamaran was extremely smooth and well built to service a delightful dinner event. The crew was attentive, while also allowing the guests to enjoy their cruise and take in the beauty of Waikiki. The cruise had a personal ambience to it while accommodating the 25 to 30 guests that were on our specific sailing. We did not feel crowded at all, and it was nice to not feel like a “herd” of guests on those double decker party cruises. The food was tasty and filling. We did get to enjoy actually sailing on the main and the jib, and we only motored for a very short time. There is something magestic and almost spiritual about sailing on the sea. The cobalt blue water beneath, and the gentle trade winds so effortlessly powering the huge sails is an experience to treasure.
The only encouragement that I would make to the Makani experience is to provide some gentle Hawaiian music on top where the forward trampoline is. Most guests enjoyed staying forward on the trampoline, and the music only played below in the bar/covered seating area.
We chose to have the Makani pick us up from our hotel and the driver and vehicle were very professional. We recommend this option as it made the entire experience effortless. I would definitely do this activity again. It was worth the time and was a good value.

A cute storm named Tropical Storm Olivia had just passed by Oahu, so there was some wind and light rain, which made my fear of heights reach its maximum. I participated with my three children, and our seats were assigned from the beginning, with me being seated next to the pilot. Despite my nervousness, he kept reassuring me with "No problem!" and gently asked, "Are you okay?" with a smile, which helped me calm down. We flew almost all the way around Oahu, saw a secret waterfall nestled between mountains that can only be approached by helicopter, and got close to the slopes around Kualoa. Towards the end of the flight, we even passed over planes waiting to land at Honolulu Airport. It was a rare experience that can only be enjoyed from a helicopter. This became the best memory of my trip to Hawaii.
トロピカルストームオリビアという可愛い名前のストームがオアフ島横を通り過ぎた後だったので風も吹き小雨を降ってたので
高所恐怖症の私の緊張はMAXでした。
子供3人と私との4人の参加で座席は初めから決まってて私はパイロットの横に案内されました。緊張してる私に始終No probelm‼︎ と深呼吸してAre you O.K?と優しく笑顔で声掛けて下さり落ち着きました。オアフ島をほぼ一周しヘリでしか近づけない山の合間にある秘密の滝を見せてくれたりクアロア辺りの山の斜面に近付いたり飛行最後の方ではホノルル空港の着陸待機の飛行機の上を通過したりヘリ搭乗しか味わえない貴重な体験でした。今回のハワイ旅の
1番の想い出になりました。

I used the service from The Kahala Hotel to the airport. They arrived on time to pick me up. While heading to the airport, we stopped at other hotels, and there was a strange moment where we seemed to wait for about 10 minutes at one of the hotels, as if waiting for someone to board. I wish they had provided some explanation in English, even just a brief one. However, I was glad that I arrived at the airport safely.
ザ・カハラホテルから空港まで利用しました。
時間どうりにお迎えにきていただきました。他のホテルにも立ち寄りながら空港まで向かったのですが、途中のホテルでは、10分くらい停車し乗車する人を待っているかのような不思議な時間がありました。英語でも何も説明もなく一言説明をしてほしかったと思います。ただ、無事に空港に着いたので良かったのですが。

Unfortunately, we couldn't see a beautiful sunset due to the cloudy weather, but the night view and fireworks visible from the sea were great. The boat sways quite a bit, and if you're prone to motion sickness, it might be tough for you.
残念ながら曇りだったため綺麗なサンセットは見られませんでしたが、海から見える夜景と花火はよかったです。
船は結構揺れて長時間乗っているので酔いやすい方は辛いかもしれません。

It was a fun stage not just for dining and watching the show, but also featuring interactive events! There was a practice time for hula dancing, a contest where randomly selected guests were invited on stage to blow a conch shell (or something like that?), and opportunities to dance with the performers—there was so much going on. The hula dancers showcased various patterns of dance. The English MC was explaining things, but it was a bit fast and hard to understand... Still, I enjoyed it thoroughly. The fire dance was amazing!
The meal had a Hawaiian flair, and it was nice that it wasn't overly extravagant. The fish dish was the most delicious.
ただ食事をしてショーを見るだけでなく、参加型イベントもある楽しいステージでした!
フラダンスの練習タイムがあったり、お客さんの中からランダムにステージに上げられて、ホラ貝(のようなもの?)を吹くコンテストがあったり、ダンサーと一緒に踊ったり、盛りだくさんです。
フラダンスは様々なパターンのダンスを見せてくれます。
英語のMCで説明していたようですが、早口でよくわからず、、、
それでも十分楽しめました。
ファイヤーダンスは最高でしたね!
お食事はハワイらしい内容で、豪華すぎなくて良かったです。
お魚料理が一番美味しかったです。

This catamaran cruise this evening was an unforgettable experience! We have been coming to Oahu for over 15 years as a couple (this is our 25th wedding anniversary trip) and have never seen Honolulu and Waikiki from a boat tour before. The Makani was an excellent first-time experience: Well captained and crewed, this vessel holds people above and below deck. It has a head (bathroom) that is easily accessible before or during the voyage. The crew did a nice job with the meal and beverage service, were on top of all the ship and passenger details, and readily and easily answered our questions. We sat topside in the front on bean bag canvas seats by the webbing and thoroughly enjoyed the view of the boat, the water, and the sunset and coastline. It was fun to sail as far as Diamond Head and see the lighthouse, as well as Koko Crater. Also, the hotel pickup and dropoff was a nice experience. The suggestions on attire were right on track. We would someday like to try the Friday night fireworks cruise!

It seems that the phases of the moon and the tides are related. Rather than a sandbar, it was a beautiful sea that came up to my waist. The water was very clear, and I encountered many sea turtles on the way to the sandbar.
At first, when I entered the water, I thought, "It's cold!" but I got used to it after a while. Also, for all the smokers out there! Smoking is prohibited on the boat, but you can smoke in the water! I think having a smoke while standing in the waist-deep water is exceptional, so I recommend bringing your cigarettes!
As for snorkeling, the mask was covered in fine scratches and didn't have anti-fog treatment, so it fogged up quickly after just 2-3 minutes. Additionally, since we were swimming in a group next to the coral, the water became murky and it was hard to see, causing the fish to flee. There were many people who weren't used to it, so it inevitably became a bit crowded.
Participation in snorkeling seems to be optional, so it might be more meaningful to play around the boat. If you're mainly looking to snorkel and seeking the sandbar mentioned in guidebooks, I wouldn't particularly recommend it.
The staff from the tour company were cheerful, friendly, and kind, which was very nice. The sandwiches for lunch were also delicious.
月の満ち欠けと、潮の満ち引きが関係しているらしく
サンドバーっていうよりかは腰までくる綺麗な海でした
透明度が高くて、サンドバーに付くまでの間にウミガメにもたくさん会えました
最初、海に入ったときは「冷たい!」と思いますが、入っているうちに慣れていく感じ
あとは愛煙家の皆さん!!
船の中では禁煙ですが、海の中では喫煙できますよ!!
腰の高さまである海の中での一服は格別だと思われますので、愛煙家の皆さんはお煙草持って行くのをオススメします!!
シュノーケルは、マスクが細かい傷だらけなのと、曇り止めをしていないので2~3分付けていたらすぐ曇ってしまいます
あと、やはり団体で珊瑚の横を泳ぐので、水が濁って見えづらくなる&魚が逃げます
慣れてない人もたくさんいらっしゃるので、どうしても芋洗い状態になってしまうのだと思います
シュノーケルの参加は自由みたいなので、船のまわりでシャパシャパ遊んでる方が有意義かもしれません
シュノーケルをメインに考えている&ガイドブックに載ってるサンドバーを求めている方には、あまりオススメはしません
催行会社の方々は、陽気で気さく、優しい方が多いのでそこはとても良かったです
お昼のサンドイッチも美味しかった

I thought it might be a little scary, but it was far more fun than that. The scenery was amazing, and zip-lining while feeling the wind was the best!
少し怖いかなと思いましたがそれをはるかに超える楽しさがありました。景気も素晴らしく風を感じながらのジップラインは最高でした。
