I had previously used the Star of Honolulu for the sunset dinner cruise, but this was my first time participating in another activity. I was able to see whales from a distance. Even if you don't understand English, they provide simple explanations like "at 3 o'clock," so there's not much to worry about.
From the boat, I could enjoy the urban skyline of Waikiki alongside the natural beauty of Diamond Head, which truly felt like a Hawaiian landscape. The light snacks, like pineapple banana bread and Kona coffee, were delicious, making this activity enjoyable both as a whale watching experience and simply as a cruise.
スターオブホノルルはサンセットディナークルーズで利用したことはありましたが、それ以外のアクティビティで参加するのは初めてでした。
クジラは少し遠目からですが見ることができました。英語がわからなくても◯時の方向と簡潔に説明してくれるのであまり心配はありません。
船上から見るワイキキの都会的なビル群とダイヤモンドヘッドの大きな自然の部分がハワイらしい景色を感じることができました。
軽食のパイナップルバナナブレッドやコナコーヒーもおいしく、ホエールウォッチングの体験としても、シンプルにクルーズ体験としてもとても楽しめたアクティビティでした。
みなさんがおっしゃっている通り、船上は少し寒いので上着持参は推奨です。
Thank you very much for joining our cruise for the first time with your spouse for whale watching. We are delighted that you enjoyed observing the whales, the views from the boat, and the light snacks.

We participated as a family of six, including our young children. On the way to the sandbar, we spotted a few honu (sea turtles) here and there. We were able to see a heart-shaped reef, and it was a pleasant cruise while enjoying snacks and drinks on board.
After arriving at the sandbar, we split into two groups (maybe depending on the number of participants?), and we alternated between snorkeling tours and activities in two sessions. I thought snorkeling would be just one of the activities, but it felt more like a full tour, so it seemed challenging for those who aren't good swimmers. However, our children, who are not yet confident swimmers, borrowed bodyboards with windows to peek underwater and participated while being pushed by their parents, so they could enjoy it too. We saw many honu here as well.
The activities included canoeing, stand-up paddleboarding, and floating rings, among others, which was great to experience. Unfortunately, due to our travel schedule, we were there during a neap tide, but we chose a plan that coincided with low tide, so the water level was just knee to thigh deep, which was perfect for paddleboarding and canoeing!
At first, I thought the participation fee was a bit high, but it turned out to be a very satisfying day with the rare experience of seeing many honu.
子供(未就学児)と両親を含め家族6人で参加しました。
サンドバーに向かう最中からホヌ(ウミガメ)がチラホラ。ハート型のリーフも見る事ができ、船上でお菓子や飲み物を楽しみながらの気持ち良いクルージングでした。
サンドバー到着後は、2つのグループに別れ(参加人数にもよるのかな?)、前後半でシュノーケリングツアーとアクティビティを交代してやる感じでした。シュノーケリングはアクティビティの中の一つかと思いきや、ガッツリとツアーのような感じで泳ぐので、泳ぎが苦手な方は大変そうでした。でも、まだ泳ぎも得意とは言えない我が家の子供達は、最初からシュノーケルは使わず、水中を覗ける窓付きのボディボード(?)を借りて、それを親が押しながら参加出来たので、子供でも楽しめました。ここでもホヌが沢山見れました。
アクティビティはカヌーやサップ、浮き輪などなど、、色々体験出来て良かったです。
今回、旅程の関係で残念ながら小潮の時期でしたが、干潮の時間にツアーが重なる日とプランを選んだので、水位は膝〜もも位の深さで、サップやカヌーをやるにはちょうど良かったです!
最初は参加費が高いかなぁと思いましたが、たくさんのホヌに会える貴重な体験も出来て、大満足な1日になりました。
A friend who participated before mentioned that the water depth was chest-high, so I think it's essential for those attending to check the low tide times. Also, February is quite cold, and I shivered
以前参加した友人は、胸位の深さだったそうなので、参加される方は干潮の時間を絶対に調べた方が良いと思いました。あと、2月はさすがに寒く、海から上がると震えたので、この時期に行く方は上着が必要です!
Aloha! This is Captain Bruce's Paradise Ocean Tour. Thank you for joining the tour yesterday. We are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed it with your children. Please come back and visit us again next time you are in Hawaii. We look forward to that day with the honu. A hui hou 🌺

I felt reassured because there were staff members who could speak Japanese and provided explanations.
As it was February, the water temperature was low and it was cold.
While snorkeling, there were many large sea turtles resting on the coral and swimming gracefully.
The water level was about knee-deep.
The bus guide kindly stopped by a famous malasada shop on the way back, making it a very satisfying tour.
日本語が話せるスタッフさんがいて説明してくださるので安心でした。

I had a great time experiencing parasailing for the first time! The boat ride was thrilling and enjoyable as well.
The instructions were mostly in English, and there was a staff member who spoke a little Japanese. They asked if I wanted to take photos, and when I chose to do so, they took pictures while I was parasailing. Afterward, I could view the photos and purchase them for $40. They are sent directly to your smartphone, so you won't receive printed copies.
I felt that the higher you go, the more it sways, which was a bit scary. Also, while moving by boat, you have to wait for others who are parasailing, so I wouldn't recommend it for those who are prone to motion sickness.
初めてのパラセーリングを体験できて、楽しかったです!ボートの移動もスリルがあり楽しめました。
基本全て英語の案内です。少しだけ日本語を話すスタッフがいました。写真を撮るか撮らないか聞かれ、撮るを選択するとパラセーリング中に写真を撮ってくれて、内容を見てから40ドルで購入することができます。スマホに直接送られるので、印刷したものは貰えません。高くなればなるほど、揺れがあり少し怖いと思いました。またボートで移動して、他の方がパラセーリングしているのはボートで待つことになるので酔ってしまう方はオススメしません。

We participated with four adults and a 0-year-old and a 3-year-old, bringing a foldable stroller. The elevator was available, so moving to the deck was not an issue, but we couldn't change diapers (we used the stroller to do so). The stroller was necessary for our subsequent plans, but we could leave our belongings at the table we were initially guided to, so it was great that it didn't get in the way while watching the whales.
I believe seeing the whales was purely luck, but in February, we were able to see them well! Fortunately, two whales swam back and forth quite close to the surface multiple times, allowing us to capture them with our eyes, not just on video or in photos. The captain announced in English, "They're at 10 o'clock!" or "9 o'clock!" and we moved based on that and hints from those around us. There was one person who could speak a little Japanese, so for those who are not confident in English, it might be a good idea to stick with that person. By the way, my family also saw dolphins and turtles... I'm envious!
On the way there and back, we had English-speaking guides. Both were cheerful individuals. Especially on the way back, they were flexible, changing our drop-off location and accepting requests for unscheduled stops. The tour ended before noon, and I was thinking about going to Ala Moana Shopping Center afterward, but I was unsure how to get there. However, since it was possible to get off the bus along the way, I wanted to make good use of that... but due to various circumstances, we ended up getting off at our hotel.
I want to come back again when the kids are older!
0歳3歳大人4人、折り畳めるベビーカー持参で参加しました。エレベーター完備なので、デッキへの移動は問題ないのですが、おむつ替えは出来ませんでした(ベビーカーを使って換えました)。その後の予定のために必要だったベビーカーですが、最初に案内されるテーブルに荷物を置いて行けるので、鯨を観る時には邪魔にならず良かったです。
鯨は完全に運だとは思いましたが、流石に2月!しっかり会えました。たまたま2頭が結構近くの海面を何度も行ったり来たりしてくれたお陰で、ビデオや写真だけに追われず肉眼でも捉える事ができて、ラッキーでした!船長さんが、10時にいるよ!とか9時方向だ!とか英語でアナウンスしてくれるのと、周りの人をヒントに移動しました。お一人、日本語が少し話せる方もいたので、英語苦手な方はその方にくっついていくのもありかもです。
ちなみに、私の家族はイルカとカメも見たとの事…羨ましい
行き帰りは英語のガイドさん。行きも帰りも、陽気な方達でした。特に帰りは、降りる場所を変更してくれたり、予定外の停車場所もリクエスト受け付けてくれたりと、臨機応変に対応していました。ツアーが昼前に終わるので、その後はアラモアナショッピングセンターでと考えていましたが、どうやって行くか悩んでいました。でも、バスの途中下車が可能との事でこちらを上手く活用…したかったのですが、色々あって結局自分達のホテルで降りました。
子供が大きくなったらまた来てあげたいです!
On the way back, you can stop at Ala Moana Shopping! Please get off at the first stop!

Snorkeling at the coral reef was amazing; I saw a lot of sea turtles and was able to swim right next to them. I was a bit nervous about snorkeling during the pre-briefing, but the time spent was not too long, and we all swam together, so even someone like me, who isn't very confident in swimming, had no problems. It was great that there were plenty of rice balls, snacks, and drinks prepared on the boat.
サンゴ礁のところでのシュノーケリングはウミガメがたくさん見れましたし、すぐ近くで泳ぐこともできました。シュノーケリングは事前説明で少しビビッていましたが、時間もそれほど長くなく、結構皆さんで固まって泳いでいったので、泳ぎにあまり自信がない私でも問題なかったです。船でのおにぎりやお菓子、飲み物など十分用意されていて良かったです。

There is a regulation that prohibits approaching whales, so the boat does not get close to them. Therefore, it is not possible to take photos from a close distance like those on the explanation page. All announcements regarding whales are in English, so I do not recommend this for those who are not proficient in the language. Snacks and drinks are explained in English, so I couldn't figure out where they were located. Even with sunglasses and a hat, please be careful as the sunlight is very intense.

On the cruise departing from West Oahu at 1:30 PM, our family was the only Japanese participants. The crew only spoke English.
What was great was that we saw whales quite close right after departure, which was lucky. Of course, it wasn't as spectacular as the photos in the advertisements. The crew was friendly and even spoke to us, taking family photos for us. The views from the boat were also fantastic.
A bit disappointing was that we only saw whales three times in the first 30 minutes of the two-hour cruise, and the rest of the time was spent staring at the ocean surface. Considering that there are times when you might not see any whales, I might be being a bit greedy.
With the mindset that seeing whales is just a bonus, I think it would be perfect to enjoy a leisurely cruise off the coast of West Oahu as long as the weather is good.

This time, my 9-year-old son, my husband, my mother-in-law in her 70s, and I participated together. The reception was a bit hard to find as it was located inside the Outrigger Reef Waikiki Beach Resort, across from the ABC Store. However, when I showed the voucher to the hotel staff, they kindly directed me to the reception area. When the time came, the staff gave a brief explanation (in all English), and then we all walked to the dock to board the boat. We were the only Japanese participants, which made us a bit anxious, but there were people from various countries joining us.
Once on the boat, the friendly staff explained snorkeling and talked to us in English. They patiently taught us how to inflate the life jackets, put on the fins, and wear the masks. As we listened to the explanations, we quickly arrived at the snorkeling spot and jumped into the sea! The beautiful ocean and numerous fish were amazing, and we even saw about five sea turtles up close! It was so close that it was surprising!
Additionally, soft drinks (like cola and Hawaiian drinks) and snacks were available for free, so we could eat whenever we felt a bit hungry.
After finishing snorkeling, we didn’t head back immediately but went sailing further out. We enjoyed many scenic views, even reaching the backside of Diamond Head. Sitting on the netting part of the boat while sailing was fantastic. We even spotted a whale, albeit briefly!
We had a very fulfilling time with snorkeling followed by sailing.
Here are some tips for those who will experience this:
1. If you are prone to motion sickness, be cautious as the boat can sway, and the waves during snorkeling can be intense. (I actually took motion sickness medication, but I still felt quite sick and had to return to the boat early. My son and husband, however, did not get sick and enjoyed the entire time.)
2. There are many other tours at the snorkeling spots, so there is a risk of getting separated if you get too absorbed in snorkeling. I made sure to stay close to our boat's staff.
3. Beginners in snorkeling may need to have some stamina. Fortunately, we were okay since we had some experience, but for first-timers, the wave height and moving to different spots might be challenging. However, it was nice that we could choose to return to the boat whenever we wanted.
I’ve mentioned three points, but overall, I am very satisfied!
今回、9歳の息子と私たち夫婦、70代ばあばの4人で参加しました。
受付はアウトリガーリーフワイキキビーチリゾートのホテル入って奥の方のABCストアの向かい側で初めてだと分かりずらいかもですが、ホテルのスタッフの方にバウチャー見せたら受付の場所を教えてもらえました。時間になるとスタッフの方が軽く説明をして(オール英語)、その後みんなで船着場まで歩き船に乗りました。日本人は私たちだけで不安でしたが、みなさん色々な国から参加されていました。
船に乗ると気さくなスタッフの方がシュノーケリングの説明や、色々英語で話してくれました。
ライフジャケットの空気の入れ方や、フィンの付け方、マスクの付け方など丁寧に教えてくれました。
説明を聞いているとすぐにシュノーケリングスポットにつき、いざ海へ!
綺麗な海とたくさんの魚、お目当ての海亀も五匹ほど間近で見れました!近すぎてびっくりするくらい!!
また、ソフトドリンク(コーラやハワイアンドリンク)や、スナックはフリーで食べれるので小腹が空いた時自由に食べれました。
最後シュノーケリングが終わった後はすぐに戻らず、さらに沖の方はセイリング。
ダイヤモンドヘッドの裏側の方までいきたくさんの景色を楽しめました。やっとの網の部分に座ってのセーリングも最高でした。
最後に少しでしたがクジラも見えました!
シュノーケリングの、後のセーリングでとても充実した時間が過ごせました。
以下体験する方へのアドバイス
1、乗り物酔いする方は中々船の揺れや、シュノーケリングの、波も激しいので気おつけてください。(実際私は酔い止め飲みましたが途中で酔いがひどくなり先に船に戻りました。※息子や夫は酔わないので終始楽しんでいました。)
2、他のツアーがスポットにたくさんいるのでシュノーケリングに、没頭するとはぐれる危険性があります。こまめに自分の船のスタッフさんを連れての近くにいるようにしました。
3、シュノーケリング初心者は体力が必要かも。幸い私たちはシュノーケリングをしていたので大丈夫でしたが、初めての方だと波の高さや、スポットに毎回移動するのが困難かも
でも、船に戻りたくなったら先に戻っていいのでそこは自由で自身の判断でよかったです
3点書きましたが総合的には大満足です!

The conditions were windy with high waves, so it felt like an experience similar to Splash Mountain... I was able to see the whale's spray and tail, and on the way back, I was also able to see dolphins and honu, which was great. I couldn't take any photos, but the views of Honolulu and the departing airplanes were full of highlights, and the captain's guided announcements were entertaining.
風が強くて波も高いと言うコンディションでしたのでスプラッシュマウンテンのような体験出来ました…
鯨のしぶきとシッポが見れて帰りイルカやホヌも見れて良かったです。写真は撮れなかったですが
ホノルルの景色や離陸して行く飛行機等見所満載で船長さんのガイドアナウンスも面白かった
I recommend using the restroom before departure.
出港前にトイレは済ませることをオススメします

The boat we initially reserved was canceled, and there were two changes after that. We had to wait for late customers, which delayed our departure and made us miss the best timing for the sunset. However, in the end, I was moved to tears by the beauty of the fireworks and the night view of Waikiki. It was truly stunning.
当初予約してた船がキャンセルになりそこから2回の変更があり、遅れて来たお客様待ってて出港が遅れて夕日のベストタイミングを逃すと言うのがありましたが、結果花火とワイキキの夜景の素晴らしさに涙でました。本当に綺麗。

I participated in mid-February!
It was rainy, but thanks to that, it wasn't too hot, and I was able to look for whales from the deck.
During the ride to the meeting point, the guide talked a lot about the area and sightseeing, making the trip enjoyable.
On the boat, we were served delicious original cake and coffee before departure, which served as a nice breakfast. The original pineapple banana cake was moist and tasty.
During the whale watching, the guide indicated where the whales were based on the direction of the clock, so there was a high probability of seeing whales multiple times.
Not only did we see whales, but we were also lucky enough to see sea turtles up close!
The view from the boat was also amazing, and I was moved by the beauty of Diamond Head and the horizon.
It became a wonderful memory, and I am very satisfied.
2月中旬に参加しました!
雨模様だったのですがそのおかげで暑すぎることなく、デッキでクジラを探すことが出来ました。
お迎えの車中ではガイドさんがエリアや観光についてたくさん話して下さり、移動も楽しかったです。
船では美味しいオリジナルケーキとコーヒーが出港前に食べられるので、朝ごはん代わりになりました。オリジナルのパイナップルバナナケーキはしっとりしてて美味しかったです。
ホエールウォッチングの最中は時計の方向でクジラがどこにいるかを教えてくれるので殆どの確率で何度かクジラを見ることが出来ます。
クジラだけではなくウミガメも近くで見ることが出来たのでとても幸運でした!
そして船上からの景色も素晴らしく、ダイヤモンドヘッドや水平線の美しさに感動しました。
とても素敵な思い出になり、満足です。
It can be cold on the boat, so it's important to wear a jacket and a hat that won't get blown away. Also, the floor inside the boat can be slippery with water, so I recommend wearing sneakers.
船上は寒いので羽織れる洋服と帽子は飛ばされないように注意が必要です。あと船の中は水で滑るのでスニーカーが良いと思います。
Thank you very much for bringing your family on our cruise. We are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed whale watching and the views from the boat (and it was great that you also saw sea turtles). We hope to see you again soon. All of our staff are looking forward to your next visit.
この度は私共のクルーズに御家族でお越し頂き誠に有難うございました。
クジラの観測や船からの景色をお楽しみ頂けました様で(海亀も見れて良かったですね)大変嬉しく思います。是非またお越し下さい。スタッフ一同お待ち申し上げております。

I took TheBus to the meeting point. A round trip costs $7 (you can ride all day for $7). It's necessary to check how to ride TheBus and the routes in advance (you can find bus stop information on Google). Upon arriving at the meeting point, you will present your voucher (sent via email after booking) for check-in.
Once on board, there was an all-you-can-eat and drink option for fruit cake and coffee (though I couldn't eat that much). As for finding whales, the spouting is a key indicator. I witnessed spouting several times, but they rarely appeared on the surface. I participated with the last attached photo in mind, but this time, we only managed to see the tail fin during the watching experience.
集合場所にはTheBusで行きました。往復$7でOKです(一日$7で乗り放題なので)。TheBusの乗り方や経路(Googleでバス停が案内可能です)の調べ方は事前に確認が必要です。集合場所に到着するとバウチャー(予約完了後にメールで送られる)を提示して受付となります。
乗船後はフルーツケーキやコーヒーなどは食べ放題、飲み放題でした(そんなに食べられませんが)。クジラの探し方としては、潮吹きが目印となります。何回か潮吹きを目撃しましたが、海上に現れることは少なかったです。添付の最後の写真をイメージして参加しましたが、今回は尾びれを確認できる程度のウォッチング結果でした。
If you can't see the whales (it's a bit unclear how often that happens), you can participate again. Whether you can spot them depends on timing, so all you can do is hope.
クジラが見られない場合は(どの程度かグレーですが)、再度参加可能とのこと。目撃できるかはタイミングしかないので、祈るしかないですね。

I definitely wanted to see this when I came to Hawaii, so I made a reservation. The show was absolutely amazing. It went by in a flash, and I want to see it again.
ハワイに来たら絶対に観に行きたい!と思ってこちらから予約しました。ショーはとても最高でした。あっという間だったので、また観に行きたいです。

Unfortunately, the weather was cloudy and the sea didn't look blue. However, before it started, the music was played loudly, and the guide was great at getting everyone excited, making it a very enjoyable memory! Thanks to the weather, I was able to take some good photos of Jaws, which was a nice surprise!
残念ながら天気は曇りで海が青く見えませんでした。でも始まる前に音楽が爆音でかけられてガイドさんも盛り上げ上手でとても楽しいいい思い出になりました!
天気のお陰で逆にジョーズのいい写真が撮れました笑

As everyone has mentioned, it can be a bit chilly on the boat, so it's recommended to bring a jacket.
