I was very satisfied! First, they gave us a wake-up call at 5 AM, which was kind of them. Since it was cold, they recommended renting a jacket and mentioned to bring the rental fee if we decided to use it. The pickup was at 5:55 AM from a location close to the hotel we stayed at. Bright and cheerful staff welcomed us, which was a relief. On the bus, they explained what was to come, and after arriving, we had a bathroom break because the restrooms on the boat were quite limited. Soon after, we boarded the boat, and the staff introduced themselves. Everyone was cheerful and made us feel excited. We prayed on the boat and threw flowers into the sea.

Once we reached the area where we could see dolphins, everyone jumped into the water, and after three attempts, we finally spotted a pod of dolphins in the distance! They kept getting closer, and there were more than ten of them! They swam right beneath us! Although we couldn't touch them, I was thrilled to see dolphins up close, something I never expected! After swimming with the dolphins, we had free time to enjoy snorkeling or slide down the slide they provided. After that, we had cheeseburgers, potato chips, and cold pineapple, which made me very happy. The staff danced the hula, enhancing the Hawaiian atmosphere, and it was a moment when I truly felt the essence of Hawaii. I would love to go again. The group photo at the end was a luxurious touch. Mahalo♪

満足でした！まず朝5時にモーニングコールをくださいました。親切です。寒いのでジャケットレンタルをオススメされ、もし使用する場合はレンタル料金を持ってきてくださいとのことでした。朝の5:55にわたし達が宿泊したホテルから近い場所でのピックアップです。明るい元気なお姉さん達がまず出迎えてくれ、ホッとしました。バスの中ではこれからの説明などをしてくれ、到着後は船のお手洗いは大変とのことでお手洗いタイムがありました。その後すぐに船にのり、スタッフさんの自己紹介。皆さん明るくてわくわく気分にしてくれます。船の上でおいのりをして海に花を投げました。
イルカが見える場所についてから、みんな一斉に海に飛び込むこと3回目でようやくいるかの群れを遠くに発見！！と思ったらどんどん近づいてきて、
10匹以上はいました！そしてなんと私たちの真下を悠々と泳いでます！触れる距離ではありませんでしたが、イルカをこんなに間近で見ることが出来るだなんて思ってもなかったので興奮してしまいました！イルカと泳いだ後は各自自由にシュノーケルを
楽しんだり、用意してくれた滑り台を滑ったりなどなど。その後はチーズバーガーを食べ、ポテトチップスを食べ、冷たいパインを食べて幸せでした。スタッフさんたちがフラダンスを踊って、ハワイ気分をもっと高めてくれたので、ハワイの実感が湧いた瞬間でした。またいきたいと思います。最後のグループごとで写真撮影も贅沢でした。mahalo♪

This is my second time participating in a wild dolphin snorkeling tour (^O^)
It was my first time with this tour company!
In a word, it was very fulfilling.
Not only did we swim with wild dolphins, but there were also many entertaining performances on the boat that kept us laughing the whole time (人 •͈ᴗ•͈)

We joined the morning tour!
The meeting time was early at 6 AM, but it was reassuring!
First, we received a morning call, which was a nice touch d(ﾟ∀ﾟd)!
And since it was in perfect Japanese, there was nothing to worry about!
We took a bus for about 45 minutes to our destination ʕ•̫͡•ʔ.
Then we headed to the dolphins' habitat, which took a bit of time ( .. ).
However, the content was packed with activities that kept us entertained ٩( 'ω' )و!
We sang songs together while offering flowers and praying,
and there were explanations on the bus to confirm safety precautions.
Then we started snorkeling with the wild dolphins (^O^).
A dedicated photographer took lots of wonderful pictures for us!
We brought our own waterproof camera, so we didn’t request their service,
but it seems you can get a USB with about 300 photos for $55 if paid in advance, or $60 if ordered later (^^).
After seeing the dolphins, we went snorkeling, and then there were boats and a slide for us to enjoy in the sea (*´罒`*).
We even got to eat hamburgers (♡´艸`).
And on top of that, they performed a hula dance for us!
It was a fun tour filled with laughter from start to finish ( ¨̮ ).
At the end, we took a group photo (^O^).
They send the pictures to your phone, which is a nice service!
If I go snorkeling with dolphins again, I will definitely choose this tour ( ¨̮ ).
*As a note, it can be cold on the boat and in the bus, so be sure to prepare a bath towel and a jacket!
Also, if you get motion sickness, it can ruin everything, so be sure to take motion sickness medication!!

Dolphins, sea turtles, and various other things♪ イルカ＆海ガメ＆その他諸々♪

Reviewed by: A＆I

During our honeymoon trip to Hawaii, we wanted to see wild dolphins and swim with them, so we decided to join this tour!

To sum it up, it was a very satisfying tour♪

We were able to swim with dolphins twice in the ocean, but unfortunately, both times the dolphins swam quite far below us, so we couldn't get as close as we had hoped. However, according to our guide, there are times when they are much smaller and even difficult to spot, so we were quite fortunate to see them clearly (sometimes they come very close to people). Well, since they are wild dolphins and not domesticated, it's all a matter of luck, and being able to enjoy that aspect is one of the charms of the tour.

Additionally, not only dolphins but also snorkeling at the sea turtle spot is included, so even if we weren't lucky with the dolphins, it was still okay! There are points where sea turtles are almost guaranteed to be present, and we were able to swim quite close to them, so much so that we had to avoid touching them (it seems that touching sea turtles in Hawaii can result in a fine)!

While the main focus is on snorkeling with dolphins and sea turtles as mentioned above, there are also other activities such as singing Hawaiian songs and throwing flowers to pray for a safe voyage, watching the crew's wonderful hula, enjoying paddleboarding and kayaking, sliding from the boat, and eating burgers. It's quite a packed tour, and combined with the friendliness and brightness of the crew, it guarantees a very enjoyable experience♪

Finally, to make the most of the tour, here are a few reminders. First, definitely take motion sickness medication. We were fine, but a few people looked unwell (the guide gives quite a bit of explanation about seasickness beforehand, which might have the opposite effect). Also, it's a good idea to bring local currency. They offer paid options on the bus heading to the ocean, such as wetsuit rentals ($5 per person), photo packages (we received about 600 photos of all participants on a USB), and motion sickness wristbands (around $20, effectiveness unknown).

And the most important thing: if you're participating in the morning, make sure to wake up properly! The departure is around 5 AM, so an early wake-up is required.

新婚旅行でハワイに行った際、野生のイルカが見たい、イルカと泳ぎたいと思って参加しました！

結果から言えば、かなり満足のいくツアーでした♪

海に入ってイルカと泳ぐことができたのは２回で、１度目も２度目もイルカが私達のかなり下の方を泳いでいたため、思ったほど近くを泳げなかったのは残念でしたが、ガイドさんの話ではもっと小さくしか見えない時や、そもそも視認することも難しい時もあるようなので、しっかりと見ることのできた私達はかなり恵まれた方だったのかなと思います（時によってはかなり人の近くに寄ってくることもあるみたいです）。まあそのへんは飼いならされているわけではなく、あくまで野生のイルカなので、運次第ということでしょうし、そういった点も含めて楽しむことができるのがツアーの魅力のひとつでもあります。

また、イルカだけでなく、海ガメポイントでもシュノーケリングできるので、万一イルカ運に恵まれなかった場合でも大丈夫！こちらはほぼ確実に海ガメがいるポイントがあるらしく、私達もかなり近くで海ガメと泳ぐことができ、むしろ近すぎて、下手に触らないように避けるぐらいでした（ハワイでは下手に海ガメに触ると罰金をとられるようです）！

そして、あくまでメインとしては上に書いたようなイルカ＆海ガメとのシュノーケリングですが、これ以外にも、航海の無事を祈ってハワイの歌を歌って花を投げたり、クルーのフラ（素晴らしい）を見たり、パドルボートやカヤック、ボートからの滑り台で楽しんだり、バーガーを食べたりと結構盛りだくさんのツアーですので、クルーの人のよさというか明るさも相まって、非常に楽しいツアーとなることは請け合いです♪

最後に、ツアーを最大限に楽しむためにも、いくつか注意喚起です。
まず、酔い止めは必ず飲みましょう。私達は大丈夫でしたが、数人は気分が悪そうにしていました（ガイドさんが事前にかなり船酔いに関する説明をするので、それがかえって逆効果になる可能性も）。
そして、一応現地通貨は持って行きましょう。ウェットスーツの有料レンタル（１人５ドル）や、写真（USBでもらえます。私達の時は全参加者のいろいろな写真含めて600枚ぐらいありました）の申込（５０ドル程度）、酔い止め用のリストバンド（２０ドルぐらい？効果のほどは不明）の販売など、海に向かうバスの中で有料オプションを受け付けています。
そしてこれが一番大切なことですが、朝参加の場合は、きちんと朝起きましょう！朝は５時台出発なので、かなり早起きが要求されます。

Amazing! すごい！

Reviewed by: 稀勢の里

I was very moved because I was able to see both dolphins and sea turtles up close. I dove into the sea three times in total. The sea turtles were really close, it was amazing! There were about six of them. There were also many dolphins, and I got to see them jump.

I’m not great at swimming, but I managed. (When diving from the boat, there was pressure because people were waiting behind me, so I jumped in. But it was a bit scary. I ended up drinking a lot of seawater, but I was so moved that I didn’t care, and I floated back up on my own.)

I felt that it was very kind of them to call the hotel in the morning to check if I was awake. Moreover, the voice on the phone was refreshing and reassuring.

The new guide was on their first tour, so good luck to them!

If I had to say one thing, it was disappointing that there was only one paddleboard available, so I couldn’t try it! One group had taken it over. The hamburger was delicious, and I also enjoyed the potato chips. There were no fruits available.

イルカも海ガメもどちらも間近で見ることができたのでとても感動しました。計３回海にダイブ。海ガメは本当に間近にいてすごすぎです！６匹ぐらいいました。イルカもたくさんいてジャンプも見れました。
私は泳ぐとこが苦手でしたがなんとかなります。（船からのダイブは後ろに待っている人がいるのでプッレシャーで飛び込めました。でもちょっと怖い。海水も飲みまくりでしたが、感動でどうでもよくなりますし勝手に浮いてきます）
朝ホテルに電話を入れてくれて起きているか確認してくれる所もとても親切だなと感じました。しかもその電話の声がさわやかで安心します。
新人のガイドさんが初ガイドということでした、頑張って下さい！
１つ言うならば、パドルサーフィンが１個しかなかったのでできなかったことが残念！１組が占領していました。ハンバーガーも美味しかったですし、ポテトチップスも美味しくいただきました。フルーツはありませんでした。

I was able to meet wild dolphins and sea turtles! ☆ 野生のイルカとウミガメに会えました☆

Reviewed by: NAMI

I participated with a friend. I wanted to see wild dolphins, and I was truly moved not only by the dolphins but also by encountering sea turtles. We offered songs and flowers from the boat, wishing for safety, and then headed straight into the sea. Since we had experience with diving and snorkeling in Japan, we didn't have any particular issues. During the first dive, we only caught a glimpse of the dolphins for a moment, but during the second dive, after moving to a different spot, we were able to see a sea turtle up close, and there were about 15 dolphins swimming in a pod! On the boat, we enjoyed freshly grilled burgers, got dolphin tattoos, and the cheerful crew even danced the hula, making for an incredibly fun time. They also provided free drinking water, which I thought was a great way to prepare for the surprisingly exhausting snorkeling that left us thirsty.

On the way back, the bus had a temporary breakdown and took about an hour to repair before we could set off again. However, thanks to the staff member Mai, who kept us entertained with conversation until we reached our hotel in Honolulu, we managed to get there without too much trouble. I was a bit scared that the bus might break down again along the way, but now it’s a good memory.

This tour became the highlight of my trip. While luck seems to play a part, I highly recommend it to anyone who wants to meet wild dolphins!

友人と二人で参加しました。
野生のイルカを見たい！と思って参加しましたがイルカだけでなくウミガメにも出会えて本当に感動しました。
船上から安全を願って歌と花をささげ早速海へ。私たちはダイビングやシュノーケルを日本でやったことがあったので特に問題なかったです。1回目はほんの一瞬イルカが見えただけでしたが少し場所を移動した2回目はすぐ近くでウミガメを見ることができましたし、イルカも群れで15頭ほどいました♪船上ではその場で焼いたバーガーを食べたり、イルカのタトゥーを貼ってもらったり、そして愉快なクルーがフラを踊ってくれたりとテンション上がりまくりでとっても楽しい時間を過ごせました。自由に飲めるお水も置いてあり意外と体力を消耗し喉も渇くシュノーケルへの対策がなされていると思いました。
帰りのバスが一時故障し1時間ほど修理をし、再出発するというトラブルがありましたが、スタッフのマイさんがホノルルのホテルに着くまで話をして気を紛らわせて下さったお陰でなんとかホテルまで着きました。バスが途中でダメにならないかと怖い思いをしましたが、今となってはいい思い出です。
このツアーは今回の旅の中で一番の思い出になりました。運もあるようですが野生のイルカに会いたいは方にはオススメです‼︎

Overall satisfied ★ But is there one more step? おおむね満足★でもあと一歩？

Reviewed by: man

This was my first time in Hawaii for our honeymoon. My husband wanted to go snorkeling, so we chose this tour where we could swim with dolphins and enjoy snorkeling as well.

First, we were given flowers and had a touching moment of prayer together as we faced the sea. The main dolphin watching part was a bit intense; as soon as we arrived at the spot, we had to jump into the cold water without any warm-up or getting used to it, which made me a bit worried about having a heart attack! The experience of swimming with dolphins was different from what I imagined; instead of leisurely swimming alongside them, it felt more like a hurried attempt to catch a glimpse of the dolphins swimming below us while snorkeling. Since the dolphins are wild animals, it wasn't the relaxing experience I had hoped for.

The dolphin watching was over in an instant, and since some people didn't get to see them, we had a total of two watching sessions, but it felt like we were only in the water for about five minutes, which honestly left me wanting more. After that, we returned to the boat, but it was quite cold with the sea breeze, making it really uncomfortable until we reached the next snorkeling spot. I highly recommend wearing a thick hoodie and bringing a large towel.

The snorkeling afterward was satisfying because we got to see sea turtles up close, which was different from the main dolphin watching. However, the snorkeling time was relatively short, and it felt like it was over before we knew it. It wasn't a leisurely experience but more of a quick taste of it. After returning to the boat, we had a lunch that was labeled as BBQ, which turned out to be cheeseburgers. I had seen reviews about this beforehand, so I was prepared, but those expecting a BBQ might feel a bit misled. The taste was good, though.

Afterward, we enjoyed dancing the hula and taking photos, which was fun. However, in the covered area at the back, the deck leading to the second floor obstructed the view, and there was a noticeable difference in enthusiasm between the guests in front and those behind. Since we were seated at the back, I think some adjustments could be made for better visibility for everyone.

▼ Points of Concern
- The BBQ was misleading since I had an image of grilled meat; the cheeseburger label could cause confusion.
- Water was leaking from the air conditioning in the shuttle bus, soaking some guests.
- The photo data was quite expensive.
- The small boat made it feel like we had to be considerate of others during the move, and depending on the seat, the stairs blocked the view and sound of staff explanations and dances.
- There were no napkins or tissues provided for wiping hands after eating burgers and chips, which made things a bit difficult and the seats tended to get dirty.
- There was little consideration for those feeling cold or seasick; it would have been nice to have some towels or something prepared.

▼ Positive Aspects
- The moment of throwing flowers during the prayer was romantic.
- We got to see sea turtles up close.
- The music on the boat was lively.
- The temporary tattoo stickers were a nice touch.

For those who have participated in other tours or are of a more mature age, you might notice some issues with the facilities, timing, and service. If this were a monitor tour price, I would be satisfied, but at the regular price, I would like to see a bit more in terms of quality and time allocation.

I may have been a bit critical, but I’m really glad I was able to participate.

ハネムーンで初のハワイでした。旦那さんがシュノーケリングをしたいとの事で、イルカと泳げてシュノーケルも楽しめるこちらのツアーにしました。
まずお花を配られて海に向かって皆でのお祈りの時間は感動しました♪
メインのイルカウォッチングは、イルカがいる地点に着くと「今からすぐ行くよ！」という感じでそれまで一切準備運動や水に触れる事なくイキナリ冷たい海に飛び込まないといけないので、ちょっと心臓発作にならないか心配になりました；
メインのイルカと泳ぐツアーは少し想像と違っていて、イルカと泳ぐというよりはシュノーケルで真下を泳ぐイルカを急いで見る！みたいな少しせわしないものでした笑
イルカは野生で自然の生き物ですから、ゆっくり横で見れる～という感じではないのでもともとの私のイメージが少し期待しすぎたかもしれません＾＾；
イルカウォッチングは一瞬で終わってしまい、見れない方がいたので合計2回のウォッチングとなりましたが、海にいたのはものの5分程度？と思う程短かったので1回だけでは正直かなり物足りなかった気がします。。
その後船に戻りましたが、海風もあってかなり寒く……。次のシュノーケルの地点まで本当に寒くてツライ位でした；
参加される方はしっかり厚手のパーカと大き目のバスタオルは必須です。

その後のシュノーケリングは、メインのイルカウォッチングと違って海ガメを近くで見ながら泳ぐ事が出来て満足です♪
ただ、こちらもシュノーケルの時間が割と短く、もう終わりか～という感じでした。
ゆっくり楽しんだ！という時間ではなく、ちょっと体験！みたいな時間ですね。
船に戻ってからは、ＢＢＱという名のチーズバーガーの昼食時間。
ＢＢＱの件は事前に口コミを見ていたので、了承済みですがＢＢＱと思って参加される方は「これだけ？」となると思いますので少し過大表記しすぎかと…。
味はおいしいです。

その後は帰りまでフラを踊ったり、写真を撮ったりと盛り上げてくれるのは楽しかったです。
が、奥の屋根付きの所だと二階へのデッキが邪魔で全然見えず、前の客と後の客の温度差が…笑
こちらも奥の座席だったのでちょっと、もう少し皆がみやすい様に工夫が必要かと思います。

▼気になった点
・ＢＢＱは、焼き肉のイメージを持つのでチーズバーガーという表記が誤解がないのでは？
・送迎バスのクーラーから水が漏れていて、お客さんにすごい水掛かっていた
・写真データがあまりに高い
・小ぶりの船で、移動には他の人に気を使う感じだったのと、席によっては階段が邪魔でスタッフの説明やダンスなどが見えない＆聞こえない
・ハンバーガーやポテトチップスを食べるが手をふくものやティッシュもなく（数人に配ったら途中でなくなっちゃった、ごめんね～という感じ）ちょっと大変＆席が汚れがち
・さむがっている人や酔っている人には特に配慮がない（数枚でもタオルや何か用意していてもいいかな）

▼よかった点
・お祈りの時間で花を投げたのがロマンチック
・海ガメが近くで見れた
・海での音楽で盛り上がった
・タトゥーシールがちょっとうれしい

他のツアーなどに参加された経験のある方や割と大人の年齢の方だと設備面や時間、対応などが少し目につく所があると思います。モニターツアーでの価格なら納得♪ですが、正規の料金だともう少し充実度（時間の幅取り）がほしいかなと思います。

少し辛口でしたが、参加できたことはすごく良かったです。

3-Hour West Coast Snorkel Cruise & Marine Life Safari by Dolphin Excursions

Dolphins! Dolphins! Dolphins!

Reviewed by: Karol Lisboa

Booking with VELTRA was really easy and fast, I gave them my information and they took care of the rest for me.

Dolphin Excursions Hawaii was also great! I had no problems with my pick up and
the boat crew was kind, friendly and helpful, they took many incredible pictures during the tour.

The West Side of the Island is beautiful. Snorkeling was amaaazing, we spotted so many dolphins, turtles and different species of fish. After the tour we had lunch at the Spinners Cafe, the food was very tasty.

I love marine life, especially dolphins, they are incredible animals! I had a lot of fun! This tour was the highlight of my trip.

I'm satisfied with the well-planned tour. よく練られたツアーで満足です

Reviewed by: なおまり

We were picked up at 5 AM, and after an 8-hour tour, we arrived at the hotel around 1:30 PM. The program was well-structured, and we had a very fulfilling time. It became a wonderful memory, and I highly recommend it.

First, we were greeted by the bus, where a cheerful Japanese crew member and a beautiful foreign photographer explained the day's itinerary. They also offered us the chance to purchase a USB with photos for $60. It wasn't a hard sell, so you could decline, and since I brought my underwater digital camera, I opted out. However, it seemed that quite a few people ended up purchasing it. Those who bought the USB received a wristband and were prioritized for photos, but the crew also took plenty of pictures of those who didn't buy it, so the USB was filled with photos of other participants. This was a bit embarrassing for those who didn't purchase it, and I wish they would reconsider that practice. By the way, the crew also took photos with my own underwater camera while on the boat. Wet suits are available for rent at $10, and you can get a refund if you don't end up wearing it, which is a nice system. I didn't rent one and just wore a long-sleeve rash guard on top. It was October, but it wasn't cold.

Onboard, the cheerful crew provided great hospitality, allowing everyone to enjoy a fun atmosphere. While cruising, we admired the mountains of West Oahu, spotted rainbows, and found dolphins that jumped in one after another. The water was quite deep and there were waves, but we followed the crew closely and were able to see many dolphins. It was a wonderful experience to see wild dolphins swimming freely in the coral reef waters. There were dozens of dolphins, swimming in groups of 5 to 10, and they came close to us repeatedly.

I felt satisfied when we returned to the boat, but a few people were seasick. I took anti-nausea medication before boarding, but even those who usually don’t get seasick might find it essential. For those prone to seasickness, sitting on the open deck of the boat seems to be a better option. At this time, we were given pineapple.

After that, we enjoyed three hula dance performances (the professional hula dancer was cute and wonderful), and we snorkeled for just under an hour at the turtle spot. We saw three sea turtles and many fish, making it a very enjoyable snorkeling experience. You can also kayak and slide into the sea from the boat. It was a return to childhood fun. Later, we had cheeseburgers (with purple taro buns) and Maui chips while enjoying the fantastic views from the boat. The burger was delicious against the backdrop of the beautiful scenery. Finally, we took a group photo with the crew and all participants, which they sent to us for free via email. By the way, water and lemonade were available for unlimited drinks on the boat.

Perhaps due to the large number of participants, there was no announcement for the hula lesson.

After getting off the boat, we went to the port's restroom (which is spacious and clean), and I recommend changing there quickly.

Overall, the tour was well-structured, and we got to see both dolphins and sea turtles perfectly. It was a highly satisfying experience, and I would love to participate again.

朝5時台にお迎え、ホテルについたのは13時半ごろの8時間長のツアーでしたが、よく練られたプログラム構成で、とても充実した時間でした。素晴らしい思い出となりました。お勧めします。
まず、バスのお迎えがあり、日本人クルーの元気なお姉さんと美人な外国人のカメラマンさんが車中、本日の行程について説明してくれ、写真が入ったＵＳＢ（60ドル）を購入するか、案内があります。決して押し売りではないので断ることもできますし、私は水中デジカメを持参したので断りましたが、かなりの人が購入しているようでした。ＵＳＢを購入する人はリストバンドをもらい、重点的に撮ってもらえるシステムのようですが、購入しない私たちの写真もバシバシ撮っていたので、ＵＳＢにはほかの参加者の写真が満載です。。これは、特に購入しないものにとっては、恥ずかしいし、やめてほしいと思いました。ちなみに船上では持参の水中デジカメでも、クルー自ら写真を撮ってくれました。ウエットスーツは10ドルでレンタルできますし、借りたけど実際に着なければ返金されるとのことで親切なシステムでした。私は借りずに上のみ長袖ラッシュガードを来ていました。10月でしたが寒くはなかったです。
船上では陽気なクルーがホスピタリティーをもってもてなしてくれ、みんなで楽しい気分で時間を過ごすことができました。クルージングをしながら西オアフの山々を眺め、虹をみつけ、イルカがみつかり、次々に飛び込みます。かなり深いですし、波もありますが、ここは必死でクルーについていき、たくさんのイルカをみることができました。サンゴ礁の海の中で自由に泳いでいる野生のイルカをみるのは、なんとも素敵な体験でした。イルカは数十頭いて、5-10頭で固まって泳いでいて、次々に近くにきました。
満足した気分で船にあがりましたが、何人かが船酔い・波酔いではいてました。私も吐き気止めを飲んで乗船しましたが、普段酔わない人でも、吐き気止めは必須かと思います。また、酔いやすい人は、船の中でもオープンな甲板に座るほうがよさそうです。このタイミングでパイナップルをもらいました。
その後、3曲フラダンスを踊ってくれ（プロのフラダンサーの女の子でかわいくて素敵でした）、ウミガメスポットで1時間弱シュノーケルしました。ウミガメは3匹、魚もたくさんいて、とても楽しいシュノーケルでした。また、カヤックや滑り台（船の上から海にとびこみます）もできます。童心にかえり、遊びました。その後、船上でチーズバーガー（タロイモの紫のパンズ）とマウイチップスを食べました。船上の素晴らしい景色を見ながらのバーガーはとてもおいしかったです。最後にクルーと参加者全員で写真をとり、これはメールで無料で送ってくれます。ちなみに船上では水とレモネードが飲み放題です。
参加者が多かったからか、フラレッスンは案内がありませんでした。
　船からおりたら港のトイレ（ひろくてきれいです）にいきますが、ここでササっと着替えることをお勧めします。
上記の流れになりますが、よく練られた構成で、イルカもウミガメもばっちり見えましたり、大満足のツアーでした。ぜひもう一度参加したいです。

It was amazing to see dolphins and sea turtles up close! イルカ、ウミガメを間近で見れて最高！！

Reviewed by: YOSHIYUKI　NITTA

I had been searching for a tour where I could see and swim with dolphins in the ocean, and I finally found one. I was truly moved when I spotted a pod of dolphins swimming. Moreover, I was able to hear their calls, which was a very precious experience.

The underwater world was amazing, but the view of the mountains, landscapes, and sky from the surface was also incredibly beautiful. I was able to fully immerse myself in nature by diving and floating on my back.

After dolphin watching, there was free time for snorkeling, stand-up paddleboarding, and canoeing, allowing everyone to enjoy their time in the ocean. I was thrilled to swim alongside a sea turtle, and it was so cute.

Unfortunately, there was a sudden issue with another guest that required us to return to the port, so I was disappointed that I couldn't enjoy the anticipated BBQ on the boat or the hula lesson. However, I felt reassured by the crew's quick response and believe this is a tour I can participate in with confidence.

I would love to join again if the opportunity arises. The taro burger was also delicious.

海の中でイルカを見たり、泳げたり出来るツアーをずっと探していてやっと出会えたツアーです。
イルカの群れを見つけ泳ぐ姿を目にした時は本当に感動しました。
しかもイルカの鳴き声も聞くことが出来て、とても貴重な体験をさせていただきました。
水の中の世界も素晴らしかったけど、水面から見える山や、風景、空の景色も最高にきれいで、もぐったり、仰向けで浮かんだりと大自然を身体いっぱいに感じることが出来ました。
イルカウォッチングの後にはフリーのシュノーケルの時間やサップ、カヌー等のアクティビティもあり、海あそびをそれぞれが思い思いに、楽しむ時間もあり楽しかったです。
その時にウミガメも真横で一緒に泳ぐことが出来てうれしかったし、とてもかわいかったです。
途中他のお客さんにトラブルがあり急遽港に戻ることになったので、楽しみにしていた船上ＢＢＱやフラレッスンが楽しめなかったのがとても残念でしたが、その時のクルーの人達の迅速な対応を見て安心して参加出来るツアーだと思いました。
また機会があれば参加したいと思います。
タロイモバーガーも美味しかったです。

I was disappointed that I couldn't see the dolphins. イルカが見れなくて残念でした

Reviewed by: あいう

On the third day in Hawaii, I participated in a tour. I joined hoping to see dolphins, but unfortunately, I couldn't see any today... It seems quite difficult to encounter wild dolphins. I think it's better to be prepared for that when you sign up. However, I was able to see a sea turtle while snorkeling, which was great. We snorkeled in fairly deep water. I'm not very good at swimming, so I was a bit scared at first, but it was fine since we were in a group. I think it's reassuring that the staff keeps a close watch on us. There was also a photographer who took pictures both on the boat and in the water. However, it costs about $60 to purchase the USB. The boat to the dolphin viewing area rocks quite a bit, so if you're prone to seasickness, it's best to take some motion sickness medication beforehand. Lastly, you can enjoy a cheeseburger made by the captain, which was delicious. They also perform hula dancing. I was really disappointed not to see dolphins, but I had fun seeing the sea turtles and fish.

ハワイ3日目にツアーに参加しました。
イルカを見たくて参加したのですが、今日は運悪く見ることができませんでした…
自然のイルカに会うことは中々難しいみたいです…
お申し込みの際はそれを覚悟の上で申し込みされた方がいいと思います。
でも、シュノーケルの時にウミガメが見れたのでよかったです。
結構、深いところでシュノーケルをしました。
あまり泳ぎが得意ではないので最初は少し怖かったですが、団体で行動するので大丈夫でした。
スタッフの方もしっかり見ていてくれるので安心だと思います。
カメラマンの方もいらっしゃるので船の上や海の中も撮影してくれます。
でも、USBを購入するのに$60ぐらいかかります。
イルカを見る場所に行くまでのボートがかなり揺れますので、酔いやすい方は事前に酔い止めを飲んでおいた方がいいです。
最後に、キャプテンが作るチーズバーガーが食べれます。
おいしかったです。
フラダンスを踊ってくれたりもします。
イルカが見れなくて本当に残念でしたが、ウミガメや魚が見られて楽しかったです。

3-Hour West Coast Dolphin Watch & Snorkel Cruise, Lunch, Drinks & Transportation

Best part of our vacation!

Reviewed by: Susan

Someone asked me today what my favorite activity was in Hawaii and I told them hands down the Dolphin and Snorkel Catamaran trip was the best and most memorable. We got to see a large pod of Hawaiian Spinner Dolphins and then snorkeling saw some Sea Turtles and many varieties of tropical fish. The wind picked up enough on our way back that the crew put the beautiful sails up and we sailed back .The food and drink were great and the crew were beyond helpful and so much fun. This is the one activity I would be sure to do again when we come back to Oahu!

We gathered early in the morning while it was still dark. On the ship, the handsome crew entertained us by dancing and singing, but despite going without eating anything in the morning, we only received a single hamburger for lunch. There were no fruits as mentioned in the itinerary either. In the end, there was no hula lesson after disembarking, and we were just taken back to our hotel and dismissed. There was no information provided about the absence of the hula lesson. We returned to the hotel by noon. I felt it was disappointing that, despite paying a high price to participate, the planned itinerary was not followed.

早朝暗いうちから集合。
船ではイケメンのクルーたちが踊ったり歌ったりして楽しませてくれますが、朝から何も食べずに行ったのに、ランチという名のハンバーガー一個だけ。

Participated in a dolphin tour with kids. 子連れ初ドルフィンツアーに参加

Reviewed by: vivian

We participated as a family of four with a three-year-old and a five-year-old kindergarteners. I felt reassured to sign up because I read in reviews that it’s fine for small children.

Everyone was excited and looking forward to the departure and arrival at the point. Although there were floating devices, for the little ones with zero swimming experience, there was quite a bit of resistance to entering the sea! As a result, our speed slowed down significantly, and we couldn't catch up with the larger group.

In the end, Dad and the kids gave up and returned to the boat first, while Mom managed to see the dolphins playing for just a moment.

The hamburger for lunch was delicious!

三歳と五歳の幼稚園生を連れて家族4人の参加でした。
口コミで小さい子でも大丈夫ですよって書いてあるため、安心して申し込みました。

出発、ポイント到着までは、皆期待しながら、ワクワクしていました。
浮く道具はあったものの、水泳経験０のちびっ子にとっては、海に入るのがなかなか抵抗があった！お陰で進むスピードがかなり落ちていて、大部隊になかなか追いつけられませんでした。

結局、パパと子供達は諦めて、先に船に戻って、ママ一人何とかイルカ群が遊んでいる姿を一瞬だけと、みることができました。

昼食のハンバーガーはおいしいかった！

3-Hour West Coast Dolphin Watch & Snorkel Cruise, Lunch, Drinks & Transportation

So much fun!! The Best Snorkel Tour!

Reviewed by: mblock

I went out with my brother and it was our first time going to the West Side. we absolutely loved it!

The vessel is brand new and it comfortably accommodates all guest. The crew is very knowledgeable and professional, after the safety briefing they served us a continental breakfast, with a nice variety of fresh fruits and cakes.

By the moment we left the harbor we could already see lots of wild Hawaiian dolphins swimming close to the boat. We were lucky enough to even spot 4 humpback whales, if you are visiting the Island during the winter months you will have big chances of seeing them also.

We've stopped at Makaha Caverns to snorkel. It's absolutely beautiful! The guide was swimming with us around the area and we surrounded by turtles and beautiful colorful fishes.

Lunch was served right after snorkel time, we could make our own sandwiches and choose from barbecue pork, tuna salad, deli meats, cheese, chips and pasta salad. Delicious!

It was a delightful morning, this snorkel tour was amazing! Definitely recommend Hawaii Nautical to everyone seeking for a good time in paradise!

It was amazing. However, be fully prepared for seasickness and splashes. 最高でした。ただし船酔い 波しぶきには万全で

Reviewed by: DAVE

It was amazing.
During the roughly two-hour voyage through rough waves, we were able to see five whales.
The drink service was great, and the staff's performance was very friendly and enjoyable.
You definitely need motion sickness medication. Also, it gets cold, and when you go to the front, you can get splashed by the waves, so a towel and rain gear are essential.
There was one staff member of Japanese descent who provided boarding instructions in Japanese, but after that, it was all about enjoying the sea, the whales, and the beer.
Also, when boarding, you go barefoot. You leave your shoes on the pier, so you don't need heavy footwear.

最高でした。
波の荒い中、約２時間の航海、五頭のクジラに合うことができました。
飲み物サービスもよく、スタッフの演出も大変フレンドリーで楽しめました。
酔い止めは、必ず必要です。 また寒く 前方にでると波もかなりかぶるのでタオル・レインウエアーは必携でしょう。
スタッフに日系人が、一人で日本語での乗船案内はしてくれましたが、あとは海とクジラとビールを楽しむモードでOKです。
尚、乗船するときは、裸足です。靴は、桟橋においていきますのでごっつい靴はいりません。

Reviewed by: Y・K

Since the season has just started, it was initially quite difficult to spot any whales. Just when I was about to give up, the captain shouted, "Look!" and we were able to see two whales (maybe a mother and calf?). Thanks to the staff, we were able to see several more whales afterward. The professional eye is truly amazing! I was thrilled to clearly see the spouting, fins, and backs of the whales. I was surprised that we could see them up so close.

Since there were only a few of us, it didn't feel cramped at all. We could go up on the deck or sit back and relax in our own spots. There was a good selection of drinks, including orange, pineapple, and guava juices, as well as carbonated beverages, and I heard you could get alcohol for just $2. Snacks were also provided, and we could help ourselves freely.

The views of Hawaii from the boat, including Diamond Head and the rainbow over Oahu, were absolutely beautiful, and I was never bored while searching for whales. I had such a wonderful time that I would definitely like to participate again if I have the chance.

シーズンに入ったばかりなせいか、初めはなかなかクジラが見つかりませんでした。
今日はだめかなぁ・・・、と諦めかけていた時、キャプテンの「Look!」の一声。２頭のクジラ(親子かな？)の姿を見ることが出来ました。
その後もスタッフさんのおかげで数回クジラの姿を目にすることができました。
やっぱり、プロの目はすごいですね！
潮吹きの様子や尾びれ、背中などはっきり見ることが出来て感激です。あんなに間近で見られるとは思っていなかったので、びっくりしました。
少人数なので狭い思いをすることもなく、デッキに上がってみたり座ってのんびりしたり、思い思いの場所でリラックスして楽しむことが出来ました。オレンジやパイナップル、グァバなどのジュースや炭酸飲料など飲み物も充実してましたし、2ドルでアルコールもいただけるそうです。お菓子なども用意されていて、自由につまむことが出来ました。
ダイヤモンドヘッドやオアフ島に架かる虹など、船から見えるハワイの景色もとても綺麗でしたし、クジラを探す間も全く退屈しませんでした。とても楽しく過ごすことができたので、また機会があれば是非参加したいです。

I had a great time. 満喫できました

Reviewed by: rozeyose

I was looking forward to the whale watching. On the day of the tour, we were blessed with clear skies and headed to the pickup location with high expectations. When we arrived, the person who greeted us was a woman who couldn't speak Japanese, but when I communicated that I couldn't speak English, she explained everything multiple times using gestures and slow pronunciation. We headed to the port in one car with another Western couple. As a result, there were only four of us on this day’s optional tour. It was quite nerve-wracking to be the only Japanese people, just my husband and I, among the staff and participants, but the staff was very friendly and quickly eased our worries. As soon as we set sail, they served us drinks and light snacks. With the clear weather, I was first moved by the blue sea and sky, the horizon stretching endlessly, and when I looked back, I could see Honolulu across the sea, which was breathtaking. Along the way, a pod of dolphins swam alongside the boat for a while, and we took lots of photos and videos. Since it was just the beginning of the whale watching season, we didn’t encounter any whales, but the private feel of the cruising experience was more than worth the cost of the optional tour. (Of course, they also provided us with a re-boarding ticket for the same season.) During the cruise, they kindly lent me a jacket when they saw I was cold from the wind, took photos for us, and offered us drinks before we even finished the previous ones. Their attentive service was truly exceptional.

楽しみにしていたホエールウォッチング。当日は快晴に恵まれて期待してピックアップ場所に向かいました。ピックアップ場所に現れたのは日本語が伝わらない女性でしたが、こちらも英語が話せないことを伝えると、身振り手振りとゆっくりとした発音で何度も説明してくれました。港へは別の西洋人カップル？と一台の車で向かいました。結果、この日のオプショナルツアー体験者はこの四人だけでした。スタッフも体験者も含めて日本人が私達夫婦二人だけという大変不安な船出でしたが、スタッフの方も大変気さくに話してくださりすぐに不安も無くなりました。出港するとすぐに飲み物と軽食を出してくれました。快晴ということもあり、青い海と空にまず感動、海の先はどこまでも続く水平線、後ろをみると海越しのホノルル、それだけでも感動でした。途中、イルカの群れがしばらく船と一緒に泳いでくれて写真や動画をとりまくりました。ホエールウォッチングのシーズンが始まったばかりということもあり、ホエールには出会うことができませんでしたが、プライベート感抜群のクルージングだけでオプショナルツアー代金以上の感動でした。（もちろん同シーズンの再乗船券はくれました）クルーズ中、風で寒がっている私を見て上着を貸してくれたり、写真を撮ってくれたり飲み物が飲み終わらないうちに次の飲み物をすすめてくれたり本当に手厚い対応をしてくださいました。

I had a reservation at 8 o'clock, but I was informed that it was changed to 11 o'clock. However, when they contacted me again, I couldn't answer the phone. When I called back, they said they didn't understand Japanese... Although I was a bit flustered, I managed to understand that the pickup time had changed, and I was able to participate in the tour without any issues!

There were only my husband and me as Japanese participants, so I felt a bit anxious, but the staff were friendly, and the language barrier didn't matter at all! Unfortunately, we couldn't see the whales, but we were able to see sea turtles and a pod of dolphins!! They mentioned that if we didn't see any whales, we could try again, but this time the schedule didn't match.

However, I definitely want to see whales someday, so if I have the opportunity to go to Hawaii again, I will definitely sign up for the same tour. Even though we couldn't see the whales, I really enjoyed the cruise, so it was very worthwhile!

8時に予約していたのですが、あちらから、11時に変更になったと連絡がありました。しかし、再度あちらから連絡があった際、電話に出ることが出来ず。かけ直すと、日本語はわからないとのこと…ちょっと焦りながらも、どうにかピックアップ時間が変更になったことを聞き取れることができ、ツアーに無事参加することが出来ました！
