The weather was nice, and I was able to see two whales. The sea breeze felt good, and it was wonderful to see Waikiki Beach and Diamond Head from the ocean, making Oahu look beautiful.
良い天気で、2匹の鯨を見ることができました。
海風も気持ちよく、ワイキキビーチやダイヤモンドヘッドも見えて海から見るオアフ島も素敵でした。

My family was overjoyed, but I was a bit disappointed because the whales were far away. The food was completely different from what I had expected... My cousin had a hard time helping out. The only good thing was that there was a staff member who spoke Japanese, which was a unique experience.
家族は大喜び、私は鯨が遠かったので少し残念でした涙ご飯も期待していたのとは全然違った、、、従姉妹は寄って介抱も大変だった。唯一良かったのはなかなか経験できない経験に、日本語の話せるスタッフがいたことでした。
Aloha! Thank you for the review. I'm glad your family enjoyed the exploration. Please join us for another adventure soon. Mahalo!

We did the EarlyBird Breakfast Cruise on Jan. 22, 2020. It was wonderful. Easy to arrive and enjoy some breakfast before leaving. Food and drinks were well worth the price.
Shortly after leaving we saw the whale breaching amd we were all amazed.
Capt. Mike and crew did an amazing job.
Highly recommend!!!

At first, there were no whales, so we enjoyed a leisurely cruise. The weather was nice, and it felt great to relax while taking in the views of the sea and mountains.
In the end, there was a rush of whale sightings! We all reacted to the captain's announcements of "Look in the direction of 3 o'clock!" and moved around the boat together. We were thrilled to see about three whales spouting water and showing their tails as they dove!
初めはクジラが現れなかったのでゆったりクルージング。お天気も良く海や山等、景色を眺めながらゆっくり過ごして気持ちよかったです。
最後にクジラさん出現ラッシュ!
5回くらい船長の「何時の方向に見えました!」と言うアナウンスに反応し乗客みんなで船上を移動。3頭くらいのクジラが塩を吹いたり、潜るのに尾ビレを見せたりする姿が見え感動しました!
Thank you very much for joining our cruise. We are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed whale watching and the scenery with us. Please do come again. All of our staff are looking forward to welcoming you back.

I think this is all about luck. Just when we had given up on seeing whales today and were on our way back to the port, an American woman we had been talking with found a whale spouting in the distance! When we shouted, the boat went closer to the whale...
It's strange that even with more than ten crew members on deck standing by to look for whales, the crew couldn't find any. I hope the whale spotting crew will try a little harder next time!
こればかりは運だと思います。
もう今日はクジラは無理だとあきらめて港へ帰る途中に、私たちファミリーと
一緒にお話ししていたアメリカ人女性が遠くで潮を吹くクジラを見つけました! 私たちが声を上げたので、それから船がクジラの近くに行ってくれたりしましたが。。。

クルーがクジラを見つけられなかったのが不思議です。

I'm grateful that the captain tells us which direction to look for the whales. In fact, there were several whales in that direction, but we could only see their dorsal fins, which was disappointing.
A small boat was quite close to the whales, so even though it was a bit rocky, being in a smaller boat might allow you to feel the size and power of the whales more.
Breakfast was delicious, but I felt it was a bit pricey for what you get...
クジラがいると船長さんが何時の方向に見えますと言ってくれるのでありがたいです。
実際その方向にクジラが何頭かいましたが背鰭しか見えず残念でした。。
小さなボートがかなりクジラに接近していたので、揺れがキツくても小さなボートの方がクジラの大きさや迫力は感じられるかもしれません。
朝食は美味しかったですが、お値段の割にはお高く感じました…
Thank you for using Star of Honolulu. I am sorry to hear that your encounter with the whales was not very clear. We will share your feedback regarding breakfast with our staff and use it as a reference for future improvements. Thank you very much for this time.

I parked at Pier 5.6 an hour ago, thinking there was a whale watching booth there, but it turned out that the Star of Honolulu was a five-minute walk from there, so I was cutting it close on time. The whale watching at Pier 5.6 is operated by a different company called Atlantis, so be careful about that. The parking fee is a maximum of $30, and I paid $27, so it wasn't much different. Once on board, we listened to the explanation and then went outside to look for whales, but in the end, we couldn't find any. The scenery was amazing.
1時間前からピア5.6の駐車場に停めてそこにもホエールウォッチングのブースがありそこかと思っていたらスターオブホノルルはそこから徒歩5分のところだったので時間ギリギリでした。
ピア5.6のホエールウォッチングはアトランティスという別会社なので注意が必要です。
駐車場はMAX 30ドルで、私は27ドルだったので対して変わりませんでした。いざ乗船して説明聞いてから外に出てクジラを探しましたが結局クジラはみつかりませんでした。景色は最高でした。
Thank you for using Star of Honolulu. We are truly sorry that you were unable to encounter any whales. It is genuinely disappointing when it is something beyond our control.

It was a bit chilly with the wind, but as we started searching for the whales' spouts, we became so focused that it didn't matter anymore. As we ventured further out, we spotted the whales' tails and spouts! Everyone was moving from right to left, shouting excitedly. It was truly moving to see whales in this vast ocean.
少し風が冷たかったのですが、クジラの潮吹きを探し始めると必死になるため、そんなことは関係なくなってしまいました。沖に出るにつれてクジラの尾びれや潮吹きを見つけると!みんの右に左にと移動して、みんな声を出して騒いでいました。この広い海でクジラが見えるのは感動でした。

I was happy to see the whale's spout and tail in the distance, but I was disappointed with the food on board, which was just light snacks and not very good in terms of quality or taste.

I booked a breakfast buffet plan for the "Whale Watching Cruise - Star of Honolulu" with a choice of cultural experiences.
I didn't include transportation and took an Uber taxi from the hotel to Pier 8.
At that time, the weather in Hawaii was consistently "cloudy with occasional rain and strong winds," resulting in high waves.
<Breakfast>
You can freely choose from bread, rice, scrambled eggs (steamed eggs), American sausage, and cereal, along with coffee, tea, green tea, milk, and orange juice.
Around the time we finished breakfast, they provided an explanation about whale watching. Those who didn't have breakfast had to wait until we finished. The explanation was entirely in English, so I somewhat understood it while reading the translations from Google Translate's microphone mode.
<Cruise>
Announcements like "Let's work together to find the whales!" and "The ecology of whales is..." were continuously made in English. At first, I was full of enthusiasm, but the waves were intense, and the wind was strong. It was rocking a lot. As expected, I got seasick, and it became difficult to focus on whale watching. I usually don't get car or airplane motion sickness, but this was a different dimension. (The foreign guests around me seemed fine.) I couldn't spot any whales, and with the seasickness, it turned into quite a heavy activity.
However, those who couldn't see any whales are issued a ticket for another free cruise.
Due to my travel schedule, I didn't use the ticket, but I think it's great that they offer a chance.
Since this activity depends on nature, I recommend understanding that aspect and being prepared to accept the possibility of not seeing whales when making a reservation.
Also, I recommend bringing motion sickness medication.
「ホエールウォッチングクルーズ スターオブホノルル号 選べるカルチャー体験」の朝食ビュッフェ付きプランを予約しました。
送迎は付けず、ホテルからpier8までUberタクシーで移動しました。
この時のハワイの天気は、連日「曇時々雨で一日中強風」というタイミングも重なり、波が高かったです。
<朝食>
パン、ごはん、スクランブルエッグ(スチームエッグ)、アメリカンソーセージ、シリアル
コーヒー、紅茶、緑茶、牛乳、オレンジジュース
これらから自由に選べます。
朝食を食べ終わる頃にホエールウォッチングの説明がされます。
朝食を食べ終わるまでの間、朝食なしの人は待っていることになります。
説明は全篇英語なので、Google翻訳のマイクモードで翻訳されたのを読みながら、なんとなく理解しました
<クルーズ>
「みんなで協力しあってくじらを見つけよう!」「くじらの生態は…」というようなアナウンスが終始英語で流れています。
最初はやる気に溢れていたのですが、なんせ波が、すごい。風も、すごい。揺れる。
案の定船酔いしてしまい、途中からホエールウォッチングどころではなくなってしまいました。
車酔いや飛行機酔いはしない方ですが、船は別次元でした。
(周りの外国人の方々は平気そうでした。)
くじらはを見つけることはできず、船酔いをし、なかなかヘビーなアクティビティになりました。
ただ、くじらを見れなかった人にもう一回無料でクルーズできるチケットが発行してもらえます。
旅程の都合でチケットは利用しませんでしたが、チャンスをもらえるのはいいと思います。
自然とのお付き合い次第のアクティビティなので、その点は理解し、諦めを覚悟して予約することをおすすめします。
それと、酔い止めをご持参されることをおすすめします。笑
Thank you very much for joining our cruise.
We are very sorry that you were unable to fully enjoy the whale watching this time.
Please come back on a calmer day.

This was my first time visiting Hawaii during this season. I signed up with the mindset of just being lucky if I could see anything, but it turned out to be an amazing memory. I could see the ocean on both the right and left multiple times, and the water was so clear that I could see reflections on the surface. My child was also very happy. I participated in a cultural experience where we had fun making flower crowns together. If I come back during this season, I definitely want to participate again.
この時期のハワイへ行くのは初めてでした。
どれくらい見れるのか?見れたらラッキーだなぐらいの気持ちでの参加申し込みだったのですが、結果は最高の思い出になりました。
右にも左にも何度も見え、海水が綺麗なので水面に姿が見えていました。

Before making the reservation, I was worried because there were many posts from people who didn't see any whales. However, on the day of the trip, the whales showed up as promised. The wind was strong, and my 2-year-old daughter was a bit uncomfortable, but when the whales appeared, she was completely captivated. Additionally, since it had just stopped raining, we were able to see a rainbow from the boat. I had low expectations for the meals included in the breakfast plan, and they turned out to be just as I expected...
予約前は体験談にくじらを見れなかった方の投稿が目立っていたので不安でしたが、当日はちゃんとくじらが出てきてくれました。

The cruise itself was very enjoyable, and I was satisfied, but unfortunately, we didn't get to see any whales. It seems that whales did appear, but we were facing the opposite direction, and by the time we moved toward where the whales were, it was too late to catch them. Since they did show up, we didn't participate the next day either. It turned out to be a bit of an unfortunate situation...
クルーズ自体はとても楽しく、満足しましたが、肝心の鯨は見れませんでした。実際には鯨は現れたみたいですが、自分たちが反対の方向にいたことや、一瞬しか現れなく鯨のある方向に移動しても間に合いませんでした。現れたことには現れたので次の日も参加には至りませんでした。ちょっと不幸なパターンになりました、、、

I signed up for the Star of Honolulu tour because it promised less rocking. I didn't know that we had to stay 100 yards away from the whales until we boarded the ship, so I was disappointed by the difference from the impactful photos in the brochure. The crew pointed out the direction of the whales several times, but they mentioned that the splashes were far away, so the people around couldn't see them either.
If you're taking a cruise ship for the first time, I think you'll enjoy the atmosphere. A pod of about 20 dolphins appeared right next to the ship, and there was a cheer from everyone there.
揺れが少ないということでスターオブホノルルのツアーに申し込みました。船に乗るまでクジラと100ヤード離れていなければいけないとしらなかったのでパンフレットの写真のインパクトとの違いにガッカリしました。クルーの人達は何度もクジラのいる方向を教えてくれましたが、遥か彼方で水しぶきがあがっているので周りの人達も見えなかったと言ってました。

Since it starts early in the morning, we brought sandwiches and snacks.
Snacking while looking at Diamond Head and Waikiki Beach was the best.
Unfortunately, we only caught a glimpse of a whale from a distance.
However, we encountered a pod of dolphins and saw dozens of them!

The weather was nice, and we were able to see a big rainbow along the way! The whales didn't show themselves much, but they did blow water and revealed their large bodies above the surface! It was moving! They continued to blow water, but they didn't show themselves much after that; however, this time they showed their big tails! It seemed a bit difficult to see them from the front like in the advertisements, but I'm glad I woke up early to participate! For breakfast, there were bread, sausage, scrambled eggs, rice, and several types of fruit.
天気も良くて途中大きな虹も見ることが出来ました!肝心のクジラはなかなか姿を見せてくれなかったけど、潮を吹いて大きな体を水面から見せてくれました!感動しました!その後も潮を吹くけどなかなか姿は見せてくれませんでしたが、今度は大きな尾っぽを見せてくれました!広告になっていたような頭から姿を見るのはちょっと難しそうですが、早起きして参加してよかったです!朝ごはんはパン、ソーセージ、スクランブルエッグ、ライス、フルーツ数種類ありました。

When we actually started to see a little bit of activity. They turned back to port. Only saw a few blows and a little bit of the side of a whale. A big disappointment!! That should of been considered a no show and whale watch guarantee should have been applied

We had a wonderful time on our whale watching excursion! We were picked up by the bus - it was early/on-time. We made it to the dock, got our picture taken (didn't buy it, it was too pricey!), then on to the boat. The boat was huge and there was plenty of seating inside and on the top deck. We opted out of lunch, which I think was for the best since me and my husband didn't feel that great on the ride out in the open water. But it did look nice and drinks were available for purchase. Once we got out on the water, we started seeing some whale blows and headed more in that direction. We then saw dolphins swimming next to our boat which was just as exciting as seeing the whale! But what was even cooler was once we got closer to the whale, marine biologist said that what we were seeing was the dolphins were playing with the whale, which he hadn't seen in 4 years! He was very informative. We also enjoyed some live music which seemed the bring the whales and dolphins around more! We probably saw about eight whales in all, ten dolphins and one sea turtle. Overall, it was a wonderful experience, aside from feeling a little seasick.
Aloha! We're so happy to hear you enjoyed your whale watch cruise with us! Thank you very much for sharing your wonderful experience. We hope to have the pleasure of welcoming you aboard again soon. Mahalo and a hui hou (until next time)!

On January 30th, I had high hopes for the season, but unfortunately, I didn't see any whales. I didn't even see any dolphins. The weather was nice, and the cruise itself was good. If you don't see anything, it would be nice to have an option for the next ticket, as some people can go and some cannot, such as offering a "compensation gift."
1/30、時期的にも期待していたが、クジラは残念ながら見られなかった。イルカすら見られなかった。
天気がよく、クルーズ自体は良かった。
見られなかった場合の次の乗船券は行ける人と行けない人がいるので、選択制で「お詫びの品をあげる」等あると良いと思う。
Thank you for using Star of Honolulu. We are truly sorry that the whales did not appear. We will share your valuable feedback regarding "offering a token of apology" with our staff and use it as a reference for future improvements. Thank you once again for your patronage.

I was able to see whales from quite a distance. The view of Diamond Head from the ocean was also great, and you can enjoy it even alone. The food was a bit disappointing, so it might be better to eat at the hotel.
かなり遠くですが、クジラ見れました。海から眺めるダイヤモンドヘッドも良かったし、一人でも楽しめます。
食事はちょっといまいちなので、ホテルで済ませた方がいいかも。
Thank you for using Star of Honolulu. We are truly sorry that you were unable to see the whales clearly. We will share your valuable feedback regarding the meal with our staff and use it for future improvements. Thank you very much once again.

Unfortunately, I couldn't see any whales, but I was able to enjoy the view of Diamond Head from the sea and the streets of Waikiki, making for a delightful cruising experience.
I also received a free ticket for the next time, so if I have the time, I will try again. By the way, I was able to see dolphins.
残念ながらクジラは見れなかったのですが
海からのダイアモンドヘッド、ワイキキの街並み
を見る事ができ、クルージングの楽しみが味わえる内容です。
次回無料のチケットもいただけ、時間があれば次回チャレンジしてみます。
ちなみにイルカは見る事ができました。

Before departing from Japan, the weather forecast predicted cloudy rain, but it turned out to be sunny, as we say in Japan. The pick-up was smooth, and after boarding, we had a light snack while the captain gave an explanation. Then we had free time and went to the upper deck. After about 20 minutes, the captain announced that we were heading towards 1 o'clock, and we could see the spouting. After that, every 20 minutes or so, we were able to see the spouting and tails, and I was able to take photos with a telephoto lens. On the way back, we were also lucky enough to see dolphins. The boat accommodated 1,500 people, and I didn't feel much rocking, so it was comfortable. The upper deck can be quite windy and chilly, so having a windbreaker would be a good idea.
日本出発前は、曇り雨予報でしたが、結局は、日本でいう晴れでした。送迎もスムーズで、乗船後、軽食を採りながら船長の説明があった後、フリーとなり、屋上デッキへ。20分くらいして船長から1時の方向とアナウンスがあり、潮吹きが見えました。その後も20分くらい置きに、潮吹き、尻尾を見ることができ、望遠レンズで写真も撮れました。帰りには、イルカも見ることが出来、ラッキーでした。船も1500人乗りで、揺れもそんなに感じること無く快適でした。屋上は、風が強く肌寒いので、ウインドブレーカーがあるといいです。
Thank you for using Star of Honolulu. We are truly pleased to hear that you enjoyed the cruise and that the weather was nice. We hope to welcome you back on board during your next visit to Hawaii, and our entire staff will continue to strive for improvements. Thank you once again for this opportunity.
