I was able to see it! 見れました！

Reviewed by: みー

It was a wonderful experience to see mother and baby whales multiple times! My 3-year-old child enjoyed it very much. The crew only speaks English, but they use pictures for explanations and simplify their language (like using words such as "baby") when talking to us, so we could understand somewhat. Additionally, the menu and explanation sheet on the table, as well as the announcements and explanations, are available in Japanese. When there was an announcement about the whales appearing, everyone moved quickly, so even if I couldn't catch everything, I understood what was happening, haha.

The banana bread was very delicious! Tea, coffee, and water are free, while alcohol and juice are available for a fee. They also provide coloring books and workbooks for toddlers.

The restroom on the boat is spacious enough for wheelchair access, so it was no problem for parents to assist their toddlers inside. I had a preconceived notion that a boat restroom might be dirty like a public restroom, but it turned out to be a stylish and clean restroom with nice tile walls.

親子の鯨を何度も見ることができて、とてもいい体験でした！3歳の子供もとても楽しんでいました。
クルーは英語しか話しませんが、写真を使った解説や、こちらに向けて話す時は簡単な英語（babyなど）にしてくれるのでなんとなくわかります。また、テーブルに置いてあるメニュー表兼説明書と、放送での注意説明や解説は日本語もあります。あと鯨が現れたアナウンスがあった時はみんながワッと移動するので聞き取れなくてもわかります笑
バナナブレッドがとても美味しかったです！紅茶、コーヒー、水はフリーで、アルコール・ジュースは有料です。
幼児向けに塗り絵やワークブックを渡してくれます。
船内にあるトイレは車椅子でも入れるように広いので、親が入って幼児の介助をするのも問題ありませんでした。船のトイレというと公衆トイレみたいに汚いかなとなんとなく思っていましたが、壁のタイルがおしゃれな綺麗なトイレでした。

Star of Honolulu Sunset Buffet Dinner Cruise & Polynesian Show

Friday Night Sailing

Reviewed by: T-Man

Everything was smooth sailing from our pick up at the Hyatt to being delivered back to the Hyatt after. Boarding was quick and easy. We had a member with mobility issues and even though the boat was rocking a little bit while going through the buffet she made it safely back to her seat with all her food still on the plate. Our waiter was Ryan and he was great. Very efficient and he loves to dance. He led us on a music train around the room, then got up and danced on the stage.
Food was decent, what I will say is it is typical buffet food. Nothing stood out as a WOW. The entertainment was good and lively. Also typical Polynesian dances if you've been to a Luau. Fireworks at the end of the night were spectacular and watching them from the water was a highlight.

Whale sighting! 👀 くじら発見👀

Reviewed by: AlohaHenry

While being blown by the pleasant winds of Hawaii, we went whale watching. Since it was a large boat, I didn't feel much rocking. Upon boarding, we had the opportunity for a commemorative photo, which we could purchase if we liked. The photo was so lovely that I decided to buy it as a memory of this stay. Additionally, we could see the blue ocean of Hawaii and Diamond Head from the boat, and it felt great to be swayed by the boat while listening to Hawaiian music. This time, we were able to see a mother and her calf whale.

ハワイの心地いい風に吹かれながら鯨探しにいきます。大きな船なのであまり揺れも感じませんでした。乗船時には記念撮影をしていただき、気に入れば購入することができます。素敵な写真だったため今回の滞在の思い出に購入させてもらいました。また、船からハワイの青い海とダイヤモンドヘッドを見渡すことができ、ハワイアンミュージックを聴きながら船に揺られるのもの心地が良かったです。今回は親子のくじらを見ることができました。

I saw a pod of whales! 鯨の群れが見えました！

Reviewed by: MT

I was very satisfied to see a pod of about five whales. The boat was large and stable, and the staff were very skilled at positioning the boat, often moving to a spot where the whales would appear in a way that made them easy to see. I thought they might be too far away to see, but in reality, they were impressive enough to enjoy even with the naked eye.

5匹ほどのクジラの群れを見ることができて、とても満足でした。船が大きくて安定感もあり、スタッフの方の船の位置取りがとても上手で、いつも見やすい場所に移動してからクジラが現れることが多かったのが印象的でした。遠すぎて見えないかもと思っていましたが、実際は肉眼でも十分迫力があり、しっかり楽しめました。

Unfortunately, I couldn't see any whales, but I had a great time. 残念ながらクジラは見れませんでしたが、楽しかったです。

Reviewed by: makyu

The weather was nice on the day of the cruise, and the waves were calm, making it perfect for a cruise. Once we boarded the boat, we received an explanation about whales, and afterwards, we enjoyed some pineapple banana bread and coffee. It was very delicious. My elderly mother also said it was tasty and finished it all.

After having our snacks, we went out on the deck and enjoyed cruising while looking at Waikiki and Diamond Head from the sea. Unfortunately, we didn't see any whales that day.

The wind wasn't too strong, so cruising in the warm sunshine felt really nice. It would have been amazing to see whales, but I think that's just a matter of luck.

They asked if I would like to board again, so I provided my contact information before disembarking, but in the end, I didn't go for a second ride. If I had more time in my schedule, I would have liked to try again.

当日は天気も良く、波も穏やかで絶好のクルーズ日和でした。
船に乗るとまず、クジラについての説明等があり、その後パイナップルバナナブレッドとコーヒーを頂きました。とても美味しかったです。高齢の母も美味しいと言って完食していました。

軽食を頂いた後は、デッキに出て、ワイキキやダイヤモンドヘッドなどを海側から眺めながらのクルージングを楽しみましたが、残念ながら、この日はクジラには会えませんでした。

風もそこまで強くなかったので、暖かい陽射しの中でのクルージングはとても気持ち良かったです。
クジラに会えていたら、最高でしたが、こればっかりは運だと思います。

再度の乗船希望を聞かれたので、連絡先を教えてもらって下船しましたが、結局、2度目の乗船はしませんでした。日程に余裕があったら再挑戦したかったです。

I was able to see a lot. 沢山見れました。

Reviewed by: pekopoko

There is a certain degree of unpredictability. It's entirely possible that you might not see anything, but in that case, you can enjoy the beautiful scenery while cruising. I participated with that mindset.

I wasn't particularly interested since I could only see parts of the body from a distance, but I thought it would be a rare experience for my child to say, "I saw a whale!" So, I decided to join. As a result, we were able to see a lot, and our whole family was very satisfied.

When I glanced ahead, I noticed many protrusions. It was a pod of dolphins. There was no announcement, so I informed the people around me. If you don't rely solely on announcements and actively look out at the sea, you might get lucky.

I took a taxi to the location. It seemed that many people gathered there. It cost about $25 one way, including tips, from around Halekulani. On the way there, I was dropped off quite far away and had to walk for about 15 minutes. Be sure to tell the driver "Pier 8." For the return trip, I called the taxi company after arriving at the port, and they came in about 20 minutes. There was a souvenir shop, so it was a good way to pass the time. When I told them "Pier 8 near Aloha Tower," they came right to the front.

In the past, my family had a terrible experience on a smaller boat during dolphin watching, but this time, we all enjoyed it without any seasickness. Choosing this boat was the right decision. The pineapple cake we had on board was delicious. There were cold water, coffee, and tea available as drinks. There were also paid drinks, but the complimentary drinks were sufficient. There were 2 or 3 people who got seasick, but most of the guests were happily enjoying whale watching.

運次第なところはあります。
見れない場合も十分にあり得る事、その場合は美しい景色のクルージングを楽しむ。そういう心持ちで参加しました。

身体の一部を遠くで見る事ができる程度のため自分自身はさほど興味はありませんでしたが、子供にとっては「くじらを見た！」という得難い経験になると思い参加しました。
結果として沢山見ることができ、家族一同大満足でした。

ふと目をやった先に突起物がたくさん見えました。イルカの群れでした。
アナウンスは特に無かったので周囲の方々に教えて差し上げました。
アナウンス任せにせず自分でも海を探していたらラッキーなことがあるかもしれません。

現地へはタクシーで行きました。現地集合の方が多かったように思います。
ハレクラニあたりから片道チップ込みで25ドルほどでした。
行きはかなり遠くに降ろされてしまい15分も歩きました。必ず「ピア8」とお伝えしてください。
帰りは港へ到着してからタクシー会社へ電話して20分ほどで来てくれました。
お土産屋さんがありましたのでいい時間つぶしになりました。
配車の際「アロハタワーの近くのピア8」とお伝えしたらきちんと目の前まで来てくれました。
過去、もっと小さな船でドルフィンウォッチングに参加した際全滅した我が家でも酔い止めなしで全員楽しめました。こちらの船を選んで正解でした。
船内でいただいたパイナップルケーキが美味しかったです。
ドリンクは冷たいお水やコーヒー、紅茶もありました。
有料ドリンクもありましたが無料サービスのドリンクで十分でした。
船酔いされた方は2～3名いましたがほとんどの方が元気にホエールウォッチングを楽しんでおられました。

Unfortunately, we weren't able to meet any whales this time, but the splendid sightseeing boat didn't sway much, so I was able to enjoy the trip without worrying about seasickness. My 2-year-old was super excited about being on such a big boat for the first time, and our whole family had a blissful time admiring the beautiful views of Diamond Head and Waikiki from the sea.

I definitely want to book again for our next trip to Hawaii, aiming for a little revenge on the whale sighting!

残念ながら今回はクジラさんに会うことは叶いませんませんでしたが、大きな揺れを感じない立派な遊覧船だったので、船酔いの心配もなく終始安心して楽しめました。
2歳の子供も初めての大きな船に大興奮で、家族全員でダイヤモンドヘッドやワイキキの美しい街並みを海から眺めるという、至福のひとときを過ごせました。スタッフの方々の気配りも温かく、まさに優雅な休日という言葉がぴったりです。次回のハワイ旅行でも、リベンジを兼ねてぜひまた予約したいと思います。

My first whale watching experience was fun. 初めてのホエールウォッチング、楽しかったです。

Reviewed by: kaiying

Thousands of humpback whales come to Honolulu in winter! I was so excited and nervous about this first-time experience that I definitely wanted to participate. We set sail on time, and I couldn't contain my excitement at the breathtaking views of Waikiki and Diamond Head from the sea. Along the way, rain clouds rolled in, and it suddenly turned into a downpour, making it a bit chilly, but it was still fun. I caught a glimpse of the whales for just a moment; I wanted to see more, but I will try again on the next opportunity. If I had to point out one area for improvement, I would have liked the coffee provided to be hotter. The staff were all smiling, which was great.

何千頭のザトウクジラが冬のホノルルにやって来る！これは是非参加したいと初めての体験にドキドキワクワクしました。時間通りに出航し、海の上から見るワイキキとダイヤモンドヘッドの絶景に興奮が収まりません。途中、雨雲が掛かり突然スコールになり、寒くもなったりしていましたが、楽しかったです。クジラの姿は一瞬見えました、もっと見たかったが次のチャンスでまたチャレンジします。改善点一つ上げるとすれば、提供されていたコーヒーが熱々のものにしてほしかったです。スタッフはみんな笑顔で良かったです。

Beautiful Diamond Head 綺麗なダイヤモンドヘッド

Reviewed by: ダイヤモンドフユカイ

I couldn't see any whales, but I was very impressed by Diamond Head from every angle. First of all, even though it was a large ship, it was about four times faster than I imagined. Because of this, when I climbed to the top of the ship, the wind felt really nice, and the weather was good, which made me feel very refreshed. The ship traveled from the departure point all the way to the back of Diamond Head and then returned, allowing us to see Diamond Head from various angles over the sea.

クジラは見ることができませんでしたが，ダイヤモンドヘッドはあらゆる角度から見ることができ，とても感動しました．まず，大きな船であるにも関わらず，その速さは想像の4倍ぐらい速かったです．そのため，船の屋上に登ると風がとても気持ち良く，天気も良かったため，とても爽快な気分になりました．船は出発地点から，ダイヤモンドヘッドの奥まで進み，折り返して帰ってくる航路であったため，海上から様々な角度のダイヤモンドヘッドを見ることができました．

As a cruising experience, it's also a way to let go. クルージングとして割り切りも

Reviewed by: るるる

In the end, I did see a spout and a little bit of the tail, but I can't deny that it felt a bit lacking. I had prepared myself for the possibility that it might not be very big based on past posts, so I wasn't too disappointed.

Since it was a large boat, there was no rocking, and I was able to enjoy the cruise with pound cake and drinks. On a smaller boat, you could move around more easily to search for whales, but I think the waves would be quite intense, raising concerns about seasickness. This time, the weather was decent, not too cold, and I was able to spend the time comfortably.

結果的には潮吹きと、少しのしっぽは見えましたが、物足りない感は否めませんでした。過去の投稿からも、大きくは見えないかもしれないと覚悟していたので、そこまで残念とは思いませんでした。
大きな船なので、揺れもなく、パウンドケーキと飲み物付きのクルージングで、それなりに楽しめました。
小さな船だと小回りもきいて鯨を探しに色々動けるでしょうが、波がすごくて、船酔いが心配だと思います。今回は、天気もまずまずで、そこまで寒くなく、快適に過ごせました。

It took just under an hour from the pick-up to boarding, and we spent two hours on the boat. I think how many whales you can see depends on the timing, but since it was the season, I was a bit too hopeful and was a little disappointed to only see them a few times in the distance. Although it was in English, I enjoyed the fun facts about whales that were shared!

送迎から乗船まで1時間弱、船に乗っている時間2時間でした。クジラがどれくらい見られるかはそのときのタイミングによると思いますが、シーズンということもあり期待しすぎていたあまり、数回遠くに見える程度だったので少し残念に思ってしまいました。英語ではありましたが、クジラについての豆知識をお話ししてくれて楽しめました！

Whale watching participation ホエールウォッチ参加

I boarded the Star of Honolulu and participated in a whale watch. Unfortunately, we didn't see any whales that day. We gathered at 8:45, but we left the hotel early and took an Uber because my wife doesn't like getting seasick, so we chose the Star of Honolulu.

We were warmly welcomed by the crew and the captain as we boarded the ship. The crew provided us with drinks and banana cake, along with explanations about the enjoyment of whale watching and the ecology of whales before we set sail.

We each went to the third deck and the rooftop deck, ready for the whale watch. Squinting our eyes and listening to the announcements over the ship's intercom, we soaked up the sun while looking at the streets of Waikiki and Diamond Head, but the whales didn't appear for quite a while. After turning back, we ended up spending over two hours on board without seeing any whales this time. However, it was a fun time. On the way back, we received tickets to board again, and I'm looking forward to the next time!

After a while, many boats gathered, and everyone started watching! I wanted to take photos, but they quickly went underwater, so I hope you can burn the memory into your mind. You could see the whale's spout even from a distance, and it moved in that direction. Although it was a short time, we were able to see a lot. Also, the view of Waikiki and Diamond Head from the boat was amazing! I want to go again.

Reviewed by: Ai

I signed up for this thinking it would be enjoyable with a baby. Since it’s a large boat, the swaying is less intense, strollers are allowed, and light snacks are included, I chose this whale watching tour among many options.

I opted out of the shuttle service, so I took a taxi from the hotel to the location. It took about 20 minutes to arrive from the center of Waikiki. The rush hour traffic wasn't too bad, so we arrived smoothly.

The passengers were mostly from Europe and America, and everyone was cheerful. There were many families with babies and children, and they even set up a coloring corner for kids, which was a great way to keep them entertained.

The boat swayed more than I expected, so I was glad I took motion sickness medication just in case. We were able to see whales a few times from a distance, which was very satisfying. My child was also delighted.

Additionally, the view of Waikiki and Diamond Head from the sea was beautiful, making it a great experience in terms of enjoying the scenery from the water.

ベビー連れで楽しめるコンテンツと思い、申し込みました。
大型船なので揺れがマシ、ベビーカーOK、軽食付きということで数多あるホエールウォッチングツアーの中からこちらをセレクト。
送迎無しにしたので、現地まではホテルに頼んでタクシーで移動。ワイキキ中心部から20分ほどで到着。通勤ラッシュもさほどひどくなかったのでスムーズに到着できました。

乗船客は欧米人が多い印象で、皆さん陽気でした。ベビー連れや子連れも多く、子供向けに色塗りコーナーなども作ってくれていて、飽きない工夫満載です。

船は想像以上に揺れたので、念の為酔い止めを飲んでいて正解でした。
クジラは遠目からですが何度か見ることができ、大満足です。
子どもも喜んでいました。

また、海から眺めるワイキキやダイヤモンドヘッドも綺麗で、海からの眺めを楽しむという意味でもいい経験になりました。

Powerful whale watching 迫力あるホエールウォッチング

Reviewed by: mimi

The day of our participation had bad weather, but we set sail as usual. Since it was a large ship, there was no rocking, which was reassuring. For a while, we spent time in the first-floor cabin enjoying coffee and pineapple bread, but then there was an announcement in English about a whale sighting, so we hurried up to the upper deck. At first, we could only see a blow in the distance, but before we knew it, the whales were right next to the ship, appearing with a loud blow. Four of them swam slowly right in front of us, and I was lucky to capture many photos of the blows, backs, and tails with my smartphone. Although we didn't see any jumps, the whale watching experience was more thrilling than I had expected.

参加日は悪天候でしたが、普通に出航。大きな船なので揺れはなくそこは安心でした。しばらくは１階船室でコーヒーやパイナップルブレッドを食べて過ごしていましたが、英語でクジラ発見のアナウンスがあり、急いで上の階へ移動しました。初めは離れた海面にブローが見えるだけでしたが、気が付くと船のすぐ近くに来ていて大きなブローの音と共に姿を現しました。４頭がすぐ目の前を一緒にゆっくり泳いでいたので、ブロー、背中や尻尾をスマホでたくさん撮影出来てラッキーでした。ジャンプは見られませんでしたが、期待以上に迫力あるホエールウォッチングでした。

Reviewed by: Fumi

We started boarding at 8:45 and went to get coffee, tea, water, and pineapple banana bread on our own. The banana bread was fluffy and delicious.

After receiving some safety instructions and a brief explanation about whales, we were allowed to go out to any deck from the first to the fourth floor. Since the boat passes by where you can see Diamond Head from Waikiki Beach, we were able to take photos of the beach and Diamond Head from the sea. The air conditioning inside the boat was quite strong, and the deck was windy, so I think it's better to bring a jacket. The boat is large, so we hardly felt any rocking.

Unfortunately, we didn't encounter any marine life that day, and the cruise ended without any sightings. Before disembarking, we received a ticket to participate in whale watching for free again this season.

Since we had no plans for the next day, we called the number listed on the ticket after disembarking and were able to make a reservation for the cruise the following day. They provided assistance in Japanese.

The next day, the wind was even stronger and the waves were slightly higher, but we were able to see a whale spouting just off the coast of Diamond Head. It seemed there were about three whales. The crew moved the boat to follow the direction of the whales, allowing us to see them come to the surface multiple times.

8:45に乗船開始で、コーヒー・紅茶・水、パイナップルバナナブレッドをセルフで取りに行きました。バナナブレッドはふんわりしていておいしかったです。
船での注意事項やクジラに関する簡単な説明を受けた後、1階から4階まで好きなデッキに出ることができます。
ワイキキビーチからダイヤモンドヘッドが見えるところを通るので、海からビーチやダイヤモンドヘッドの写真を撮ることができました。船内はクーラーがかなりきいているのと、デッキは風が強いので、上着を持っていった方が良いと思います。船が大きいので揺れはほとんど感じませんでした。
この日は生き物に全く会うことがなくクルーズは終わってしまいました。
下船の前に今シーズンでもう一度ホエールウォッチングに無料で参加できるチケットを受け取りました。
私たちは次の日の予定が無かったので、下船後にチケットに記載されている電話番号に電話し翌日のクルーズの予約を取ることができました。日本語で対応してくれます。
翌日はさらに風が強くやや波が高かったのですが、ちょうどダイヤモンドヘッドの沖の所でクジラが潮を吹くところを見ることができました。3頭ほどいたようです。クジラの進行方向に合わせて船を移動してくれるので、クジラが海面に来るところを何度も見ることができました。

I was able to see whales on the re-boarding. 再乗船で鯨見れた

Reviewed by: メイ

It was a large ship 🚢, so I didn't feel any rocking. My friend is prone to seasickness, so they seemed a bit dizzy.

During the first trip, no whales appeared, and we only enjoyed the view of Waikiki Beach.

We received the reboarding tickets just before disembarking, but instead of rebooking on the spot, we had to call the company directly. I asked someone at the hotel who spoke Japanese to make the call for us. The transportation fee was settled by credit card.

During the second trip, we couldn't see any breaching, but we did see the tail and pectoral fins.

According to the guide in the return shuttle, whales come closer to the coast near Maui, so they appear larger.

大きな船🚢なので、揺れは気になりませんでした。友達は船酔いしやすいので、頭がふらふらしたようですが。

1度目は鯨は現れず、ワイキキビーチの景色を楽しんだのみ。

再乗船のチケットを下船間際に船内でもらいましたが、その場で予約し直すのでは無く、会社に直接電話をしないといけませんでした。
ホテルの日本語の話せる人に頼んで、電話してもらいました。
送迎代はクレジットカードで決算。

2度目はブリーチングはさすがに見れませんでしたが、尾ビレや胸ビレは見れました。

帰りの送迎車のガイドさんによると、マウイ島の方が海岸近くに来るので、大きく見えるそうです。

Where do whales go? 鯨はどこへ

Reviewed by: Cherry

We set sail in the rain. I believe the captain did his best to search for whales, but... the weather conditions were poor. There's nothing we can do about that; it was disappointing. Diamond Head and Waikiki Beach were also hazy. However, the wonderful nature of Hawaii is brought by this rain, so I'm grateful. I switched my mindset.

On the way back, I received a ticket for my next trip. The expiration date is until the end of this season, so it feels a bit impossible to use. I would have been really happy if it had been valid until the next season.

雨の中で出航です。キャプテンは一生懸命に鯨を探して下さったと思うのですが。。。
気象条件が悪かったです。これは仕方がないですね、残念でした。そしてダイヤモンドヘッドもワイキキビーチも霞んでいました。でもハワイの素晴らしい自然はこの雨がもたらします、感謝。マインド切り替えました。
帰りに次回乗船チケットいただきました。有効期限は今シーズン終了まででしたので
ちょっと無理かなって感じです。
来シーズンまでの有効期限ならめっちゃ嬉しかったのですが。

Even though it's the whale watching season, ホエールウォッチングのシーズンとは言えど

Reviewed by: ゆー

I booked a plan that includes round-trip transportation. Since many Japanese participants were also joining, I felt安心して参加できます (at ease to participate).

Once we arrived at the dock, we boarded the boat and took commemorative photos. After that, while enjoying pineapple banana cake and coffee, we were given information about whales (though it was all in English).

Afterward, we went up to the deck to enjoy the scenery. The captain would let us know when a whale was spotted, but unfortunately, we didn't see any this time. Instead, we enjoyed the view of Waikiki and Diamond Head from the boat. It felt just like a sightseeing cruise.

The day we participated was after a day when Honolulu had strong winds and a warning was issued, so the waves were slightly high, and the boat rocked a bit. However, since it wasn't a small boat, it was quite stable. Still, those who are prone to motion sickness should be cautious.

往復送迎付きのプランを申し込みました。日本人の方も多く参加されていたので安心して参加できます。
船着場に着いたら乗船、記念撮影をした後に、パイナップルバナナケーキとコーヒーをいただきながら、最初にクジラに関する情報を教えてくれます。(ただし全て英語です。)
その後デッキに登って景色を楽しむことができます。クジラが見つかると船長が教えてくれるようですが、この時は残念ながら見えず、船から見えるワイキキの景色とダイヤモンドヘッドを見て帰ってきました。まるで遊覧船ですね。
参加した日はホノルルが強風で警報が出た日の後だったので、波が若干高く、多少揺れました。ただ小型船ではないので揺れには強いですが、乗り物酔いしやすい方は注意したほうがいいです。

There are days when we can't meet... 会えない日もある・・

Reviewed by: ショウイチ

I was excited to be on the boat, but unfortunately, the weather was rainy, and we couldn't go whale watching. There was a thorough explanation of whale ecology, but it was all in English, and I managed to understand it with my iPhone's translation feature, although there was a bit of a time lag. It would have been nice to have information about the location of the restrooms as there were some places that were not usable.

テンションアップで船上しましたが、お天気も雨で・・残念ながらホエールウオッチング出来なかったです。鯨の生態等説明が丁寧にありましたが、すべて英語でiPhoneの翻訳機能でなんとか理解できましたが・・時間差がありました。
トイレの場所説明もあったら良かったと・・使えない場所がありました。

Whale watching ホエールウォッチング

Reviewed by: RIKO

The meeting time is set for 8:45, but you won't be able to board the ship until that time, so I don't recommend arriving too early. Once on board, you'll first receive drinks (coffee, tea, water) and banana pineapple cake. The banana pineapple cake was very delicious. It will be taken away about an hour after departure, so it's best to eat it early.

The ship moves slowly, getting closer to spots where you can see Waikiki and Diamond Head well. Unfortunately, the weather wasn't great, and the wind was strong. We were able to see whales about three times. Due to regulations, we couldn't get too close, and they were smaller than I had imagined.

8:45集合になっていますが、8:45にならないと船内に入れないので早めに来すぎるのはおすすめしません。
船内に入り、最初にドリンク（コーヒー、紅茶、水）とバナナパイナップルケーキを頂きます。バナナパイナップルケーキがとても美味しかったです。出発して1時間程で下げられてしまうので早めに食べるのがおすすめです。
ゆっくりと進んでいき、ワイキキやダイヤモンドヘッドがよく見えるところに近づいてくれます。あいにく天気が良くなく、風も強かったです。
クジラは3回程見る事ができました。条例で近付いてはいけないのもあり、想像してたより小さかったです。
