All Reviews for Sunset Cruises

I participated in February.
I saw the reviews and brought a fleece jacket just in case, but it wasn't necessary.
The weather was really nice, and the sunset was perfect!!
However, the small boat swayed a lot.
I got seasick and regretted not bringing motion sickness medication.
I had never gotten motion sickness on any vehicle before, so I let my guard down.

When getting on and off, my knees got a little wet.
Depending on the waves, I got soaked up to my waist.
I participated with my 4-year-old son, but there was no requirement for children to wear life jackets.

I got seasick, but I was able to see the sunset beautifully, so I was very satisfied!

By the way, before boarding, they took a photo of the boat with Diamond Head in the background, which you can buy for $15 on the way back.
The photo turned out really nice, so I purchased it♪

Also, the captain was a really cool guy, and all the announcements were in English.
He spoke quickly, and I didn't understand half of what he was saying (^_^;)

2月に参加しました。
口コミを見て、警戒してフリースの上着を持って行ったけど、必要ありませんでした。
とってもいいお天気で、サンセットもバッチリでした！！
ただ小さい船なので、とっても揺れます
私は船酔いしてしまい、酔止め持ってこなかったことを後悔しました。
船はもちろん、乗り物で酔ったことなかったので油断しました。

乗り降りの際に膝ちょっと上まで濡れます。
波のタイミングによっては腰までビッショリです。
4歳の息子を連れて参加しましたが、「子供はライフジャケット着用」ではなかったです。

酔っちゃったけど、サンセットはキレイに見られたし、大満足です！

余談ですが、乗船前に船とダイヤモンドヘッドをバックに写真をとってくれて、帰りに$15で買えます。
かなりキレイにとれていて購入しました♪

あと、船長はめっちゃカッコイイおじさんで、アナウンスも全て英語です
早口で、何言ってるか半分もわからなかった(^_^;)

There were no Japanese staff, and I felt a bit of a sense of alienation or that I was falling behind because I couldn't catch some of the words. I'm relieved that I was able to see the whales. The boat might be a bit tough for those who are not strong.

日本語スタッフもいないしちょっと言葉が聞き取れずなにか疎外感というか遅れてる感がありました。クジラには会えてほっとしています。船は弱い人にはちょっと厳しいですかね。。

This cruise is very classy. From dinner to show Done it 3 time

Several years I was scare to get on this. But the crew really take care of us. Safely. Is number. As you sail music is nice and loud. Crew pouring drinks
Don't miss out. We will. Be there next year

This was so much fun. Much more intimate than originally expected. About 16 people were on the sail (3 of them were staff). The staff was super nice and informative. Fireworks were fun to watch. The view of the city lights was amazing. The bar is a cash only bar. This was well worth the money. We had a great time and consider this a must do.

The weather was wonderful, and we were able to see a very beautiful sunset! The view of Diamond Head from the sea was also stunning!
The Mai Tai was the best♬

I recommend wearing clothes that can get wet and bringing motion sickness medication.

お天気にも恵まれ、とっても綺麗な夕日が見れました！海からみるダイヤモンドヘッドも綺麗でした！
マイタイも最高♬

濡れても良いかっこ、酔い止め持参をおすすめします。

We alway do the star of Honolulu. Dinner is awesome. Lobster mmmm. Drinks. A little dancing at the end. With a great view

I wish can see more whales..Also I know,Breakfast.is cheap fee but hope change manufacturer items. No need sausages. Too greecy . Need more light manu.. pancake or some

My wife and I had a great time! The food was good and the staff were all extremely polite and enthusiastic. The show was a treat and the dancers were all very gracious and patient about taking pictures with the guests. The views from the boat of the city and Diamond Head alone were worth the money. We'll surely do it again on our next trip back.

We went on a cruise on a large ship from the morning. The scenery was absolutely amazing! The special feeling of being able to view the cityscape of Honolulu from the sea and the impressive sight of Diamond Head was fantastic. The ship was big, so I didn't get seasick at all. It had about three floors, and at first, everyone was seated, but once the ship started moving, we could move around freely. Everyone was out on the deck taking lots of photos.

The only disappointment was that we didn't see any whales... The captain and the crew were really persistent in searching with binoculars, but sometimes they just aren't around, even in winter. Since it's all about nature, there's nothing we can do. If you don't see any whales, you can apply for a free ticket to go on another cruise next time. I didn't take it due to my limited stay.

By the way, I opted for a plan that included breakfast, but it was just regular food. When asked if it was delicious... well, it was okay, I guess... However, since we had an early morning gathering, I decided to include it.

Anyway, I felt fully satisfied just thinking about going on a morning cruise!

大きな船に乗って朝からクルージング。とにかく景色が最高でした！海からホノルルの街並みを眺められる特別感、ダイアモンドヘッドを横切る迫力、とてもよかったです。船も大きいので、まず酔いません。３階くらいまであり、最初はみなさん席についていますが、ある程度船が動き出してしまえば、自由に移動。みなさん甲板に出て写真バチバチでした。
残念だったのは、クジラが見られなかったこと・・・。船長さん？や、船員さん達も双眼鏡でかなり粘ってさがしてくれましたが・・・。冬でも見られない時があるのですね。自然が相手のお話なので、しかたありません。見られなかった場合は、また次回クルージングできる無料券を申し込めば貰えます。私は滞在日数の関係上、もらいませんでした。
ちなみに朝食を付けたプランにしたのですが、まぁ普通のごはんです。おいしいか・・・と言われると、う～ん、そこまでか・・も・・・。ただ早朝の集合でしたので、つけました。
ともあれ、朝、クルージングに行ってきた！と思えば、充分満足です。

On the day of the trip, it was raining and the sea was rough. My younger child quickly got seasick and slept inside the boat the whole time. However, quite a few other people also got seasick. During the two-hour trip, we only saw whales for about 10 minutes, but we were able to see them up close several times, which was nice. The best part was when my older child was looking at the sea from the deck on the opposite side of the boat and said they were happy to have seen dolphins.

I think it would have been fine without the meal. I felt that dining on the boat is not something I would want to do for a while.

当日は雨で海は荒れていました。下の子はすぐに船酔いになりずっと船内で寝ていました。ただ、他の人達も結構の数の人が船酔いになっていました。2時間のうちでクジラを見れたのは10分程度でしたが、近くで何回も見れたのでよかったです。一番よかったのは、上の子がクジラと反対側のデッキで海を眺めていたらイルカを見れたと言って喜んでいたことです。
なお食事は無くてもよかったと思うレベルです。船上での食事は当分いいと思いました。

During my three-night stay, the weather was unstable, but on the morning of January 31, it was sunny, and I was able to see mother and baby whales jumping relatively close by. The staff member, who was a white person fluent in Japanese, provided a detailed explanation, and the atmosphere was very friendly, making it an enjoyable experience.

今回3泊で天気が不安定でしたが、1月31日午前中は晴れた天気で
親子鯨のジャンプを比較的近くで見ることができました。
日本語の上手な、白人のスタッフさんも丁寧に解説してくれて
とてもフレンドリーな雰囲気で楽しめました。

There were no issues despite the last-minute booking.

It was great that everyone enjoyed whale watching together. The cruising on the large boat was surprisingly pleasant.

直前申し込みでしたが問題ありませんでした。

ホエールウォッチングみんなで楽しめてよかったです。
大きな船でのクルージング思いのほか気持ちよかったです。

I participated on January 24th. While moving to the point where we could see whales, we enjoyed a buffet-style meal. I wasn't expecting much, but it was delicious.

When we arrived at the point, we were able to receive explanations in English about the ecology of whales, and they pointed out the direction where we could see them. Although it was a bit far, I was thrilled to see them spouting water and their tails.

1/24に参加しました。クジラの見えるポイントに移動しながら、ビュッフェ形式の食事を頂きました。期待していませんでしたが、おいしかったです。

ポイントに着くと英語でクジラの生態の事など説明して頂く事もでき、クジラが見える方向を教えて頂けました。
少し遠かったですが、潮を吹いている様子やしっぽも見えて感激しました。

This is about luck. I think it would be wonderful to see a jump, but it seems that due to regulations, you can't get too close to the whales, so it might be quite difficult to get the full picture. Since there are many passengers on the large boat, I think the price is reasonable.

これは運です。ジャンプが見られれば素晴らしいと思いますが、法令であまりクジラの近くには行けないそうなので、全体像をつかむことは中々難しそうです。大きい船で乗客もたくさんいるので値段も相応かなと思います。

This time, I signed up for whale watching for the first time. I chose the daytime plan. The food was tastier than I had imagined. However, when I did dolphin watching in Guam, I was able to see them up close. It seems that due to the law, we can't get too close, but I only saw the whales' backs about four or five times, and I wish I could have seen them a bit closer.

今回、初めてホエールウォッチングを申し込みました。昼色のプランで申込みしました。食べ物は想像してたより美味しかったです。
ただ、グアムでイルカウォッチングをしたときは間近で見れたので、法律で近づいてはいけないみたいですが背中が見えたのが4・5回で、もう少し近くで見れたらよかったと思いました。

I participated with my friends.
There was a child who was weak on boats, but since it was a larger ship, they didn't suffer from severe seasickness.
We were able to see whales from a distance several times.
If you have binoculars, you might see them even better.
If you're lucky, you might see them jump, but this time we were able to see them swimming and diving.

On the way back, I enjoyed participating in hula dance lessons and lei making.
We all wore leis and took photos together.
It was fun.

友人たちと参加してきました。
船に弱い子も参加していましたが、大きめの船だったのでひどい船酔いはせずにすみました。
ホエールは遠目にですが何回も見ることが出来ました。
双眼鏡あるともっとよく見えるかもしれません。
運が良いと、ジャンプが見れたりするようですが、今回は泳いでいるところ、
もぐるところを見ることが出来ました。

帰りは、フラのダンスレッスンや、レイメイキングに参加して楽しかったです。
みんなでレイをつけて写真も取りました。
楽しかったです。

The whales didn't look as big as I had hoped, but since they are natural creatures, it can't be helped. More importantly, the breakfast buffet was disappointing with a limited selection. It might have been better to skip breakfast and eat on our own instead.

　期待していたほどクジラは大きく見えなかったけど、自然のものなので、仕方ないですね、それよりも、朝食バイキングは、品数少なく期待外れ、朝食なしで自分たちで食べてからのほうがいいかも？

I participated in the morning session, but unfortunately, I couldn't see the whales up close. I could only confirm that they were spouting water from a distance. However, I was happy that a pod of wild dolphins approached us before we headed out to sea. It was nice to enjoy a leisurely cruise, so I think it was overall good. Since I could only see them from afar, tickets for the next time were distributed only to those who wanted them, but I didn't take one as I had a full schedule on other days.

午前の部で参加しましたが、残念な事にくじらは近くでは見れませんでした。
ただ遠くで潮噴いているのだけ確認出来ました。
ただ沖に出るまでに野生のイルカの群れが近づいてくれて嬉しかったです。
のんびりクルージング出来たので、まあ良かったと思います。
遠くでしか見れなかったので、次回チケットを希望者のみ配布されましたが、私は他の日は
予定がいっぱいあったのでもらいませんでした。

Three days before participating in this tour, I joined a snorkeling tour to swim with sea turtles and dolphins. Since it was a small boat, many people got seasick, which was quite a sight... Even I, who usually don’t get seasick, was taken aback by the scene. So I was worried about whether it would be okay to drink while on a yacht... I love alcohol, so I decided to observe for a while after we set sail. However, the sea in Waikiki was calm, and there were no seasick people. Thanks to the beautiful scenery and the fun staff, I gradually started enjoying my drinks. Normally, I only drink beer, but I also had a Mai Tai, and it became an incredibly wonderful memory! I truly recommend it! The scenery is amazing.

We participated in early January during New Year’s, but it gets really cold on the way back, so I recommend bringing a thick hoodie or something similar. It was perfectly fine on the way there in a tank top and shorts. I brought a long-sleeve shirt and a hoodie, which was just enough for warmth on the way back. There were others who didn’t bring any warm clothing, and they looked very cold and huddled up. The sea breeze after sunset is colder than you might expect.

Also, the yacht has a restroom, but my husband, who is 185 cm tall and weighs 80 kg, said it was very cramped and not hygienic. He mentioned it’s not a suitable space for large people or women, so be cautious. If you can’t hold it, that’s one thing, but it’s unpleasant if it’s not hygienic.

As for what to bring, sunglasses are a must since it’s quite bright. We only had one face towel for two people, which was sufficient. If you want to use it for warmth, it might be good to bring a bath towel each. However, that could be quite cumbersome, and it’s cold from the boat to the hotel, so if you plan to spread out a bath towel in town, I recommend bringing a hoodie or something similar.

By the way, the meeting point for this tour is Waikiki Beach in front of the Sheraton. The Lawson convenience store located on the first floor of the Sheraton sells bottled Starbucks coffee and sandwiches that are cheaper and tastier than those at ABC Store, so I recommend picking some up on your way back☆

The sunset cruise truly became a wonderful memory! HAPPY NIGHT☆

このツアーに参加する3日前に、ウミガメ・イルカと泳ぐシュノーケリングツアーに参加し、小さな船だった為船酔いの人が多数出て壮絶な光景に。。。
船酔いしない私でもその光景にびびってしまい。
なので、ヨットに乗りながらお酒飲むなんて大丈夫なのか…心配を通り越して、お酒大好きな私が、出港してもしばらく様子みながらクルージングをしてましたが、ワイキキは海が穏やかで船酔いの人もおらず、素晴らしい景色と楽しいスタッフのおかげで、いつの間にかお酒もすすみ、普段はビールしか飲まないのにマイタイも飲んで、すごくすごくすごく素敵な思い出になりました！！本当におすすめ！！
素晴らしい景色です。
私たちはお正月(1月初め)に参加しましたが、帰りはめちゃくちゃ寒いので、持ってくものは厚手のパーカー等をおすすめします。行きはタンクトップにショートパンツで全然大丈夫でした。
私はロンティーとパーカーを持ってきましたが、帰りの防寒はそれでやっとでした。
防寒を何も持ってきていない方もいましたが、とっても寒そうでちじこまっていました。
日が暮れてからの海風は想像以上に冷えます。
あと、ヨットにトイレがついていますが、185㎝・80㌔の主人が入ったところ、非常に狭くて衛生的でなく、大きい人や女性が入れる場所ではない、、、と言ってましたので要注意です。
我慢できなければ仕方ないですが、衛生的でないのは嫌ですね。
持ち物は、サングラスはあったほうがいいです。かなりまぶしいので。
タオルは、二人でフェイスタオル一枚でしたが、十分でした。寒さ除けにも使う方は、バスタオルを各自持ってもいいかもですね　　ただ、非常に荷物になるでしょうし、船を降りてからホテルまでも寒いので、まちなかでバスタオルを広げるなら、パーカー等を持って行かれるのをおすすめします。
余談ですが、このツアーの集合場所がシェラトンの前のワイキキビーチなんですが、シェラトンの1階に入ってるローソンが、スタバの瓶コーヒー等ＡＢＣストアより安く、サンドイッチも美味しかったので、帰りに買って帰るのもおすすめです☆

サンセットクルーズ　　本当に素敵な思い出になりました！！
ＨＡＰＰＹ　ＮＩＧＨＴ☆

Cruise on a catamaran yacht. We chose sunset time. The sea and sunset were beautiful, and the yacht was at a good speed. The Mai Tai served on board was also great. It was so good that I could go on it multiple times. Sunset cruises are popular, so I'm glad I made a reservation from Japan.

カタマランヨットでのクルーズ。サンセットの時間をチョイス。すごく海、夕日がきれいで、ヨットはよいスピード。船上でだされるマイタイも◎
何度のっても良いくらいだった。サンセットは人気なので、日本から予約して行けてよかった。

It was a relaxing cruise after a long work day! The crew was accomodating, frendly and professional. Grat time was had by all!

I was hoping to see humpback whales jumping like in the pictures, but I learned that they don't jump during this time as they are preparing to give birth. Occasionally, I could see the whales' backs, but I was a bit disappointed as I had imagined something more whale-like.
After seeing the whales, we went cruising all the way to Waikiki. The scenery was beautiful, which was nice.

写真にあるようなザトウクジラのジャンプしているところを見れると思っていたのですが、この時期は出産前でジャンプはしないとのこと。時々、クジラの背中が見えるのですが、もっとクジラっぽいのを想像していただけに少し残念でした。
クジラを見た後はワイキキの先までクルージング。景色も良くてよかったです。

We participated in this optional tour during our first trip to Hawaii with my mother, two daughters, and husband. It was the girls' strong desire to join, but... we only saw the tail and back for a very short time. Even so, we were excited and shouted loudly, but I wondered if only very lucky people get to see the dynamic sight like in the photos. Moreover, the captain would say, "In the direction of ○○ o'clock," but everything was in English. While the foreigners moved quickly, the Japanese were all confused and flustered. In the meantime, the foreigners took the spots, and we couldn't get onto the deck. The announcements were mostly in English, and the crew also spoke almost exclusively in English. When we asked if anyone understood Japanese, they just shook their heads. We hardly understood any explanations. If we're going to spend half a day on this tour, I thought it would be more effective to extend our time for shopping around Waikiki or Kahala.

母と娘二人と夫の5人で人生初のハワイ旅行で、このオプショナルに参加しました。娘達のたっての希望で、参加したのですが...見えたのはほんの短い時間、尻尾と背中がちょっぴりでした。それでも、興奮して大きな声は出ましたが、写真のようなダイナミックな姿を見られるのは本当に運の良い人だけなのかな、と思いました。そして、何より、船長さんが「○○時の方向」と教えてくれるのですが、全て英語のみで、外人の方々はさっさと移動するのですが、日本人は皆、分からずオロオロ。その間に外人の方々に場所を取られてデッキに入れず。アナウンスも英語ばかりで、クルーの方々もほぼ英語のみで、日本語のわかる方、ときいても、首を振られるばかり。説明などはほぼわかりませんでした。このツアーに半日を費やすのなら、ワイキキやカハラ辺りまで、足を伸ばしてショッピングに時間を使う方が有効だな、と思いました。

I participated with a friend. As the sun was setting, creating a wonderful atmosphere, a foreign couple was getting engaged! It was so lovely (*^^*) We were also able to see two whales, making it the best cruise ever☆ I made the reservation on my own, but my friend seemed really moved and was very satisfied!

However, I got a bit carried away and drank too many Mai Tais, and since there were no restrooms, I couldn't even say goodbye properly after it ended and had to dash to the bathroom (*ToT)

If you go to Hawaii, I definitely want you to participate! Just make sure to use the restroom first and drink responsibly.

友達と参加しました。日が沈んできてとても雰囲気がいい中、外人カップルがプロポーズをしていました！とても素敵でした(*^^*)２頭のクジラを見ることもでき、最高のクルーズでした☆私が１人で勝手に予約をしてしまったんですが、友達もすごく感動したようで大満足です！
ただ、調子にのってマイタイを飲み過ぎてしまい、トイレがないので終わった後ろくにあいさつもできずにトイレにダッシュでした(*ToT)
ハワイに行かれたら絶対に参加して欲しいです！その時はちゃんとトイレを済ましてから計画的に飲んでください。

For the price this is an amazing little trip out on the ocean! Between the unlimited drinks with a decent selection and the great hosts this was just an all around good time. We even got to see whales!

A sea walk while drinking Mai Tai and watching the beach, Diamond Head, and the sunset off Waikiki. The staff were friendly and offered refills on drinks. Depending on the situation, cheerful people were enjoying themselves to the music. A 1.5-hour sea walk with drinks while watching the sunset at this price is very affordable.

ワイキキ沖でビーチやダイヤモンドヘッドと夕日を見ながらマイタイを飲みながらの海上散歩。飲み物もスタッフが愛想よくお代わりも聞いてきてくれるた。その場次第だろうが陽気な人たちが音楽に合わせてはしゃいでいた。1.5h夕日を見ながらお酒を飲んでの海上散歩がこの価格はとても安い。

Expected a spectacular show with lots of fire and dance. It rained right before the start of the show so it had to be moved inside. Not your fault, but completely deflated the mood. I would rather of been refunded. Too expensive of a ticket to be moved indoors and be satisfied. Very disappointed in the show. Not what we expected.

I made a reservation for about 10 people from Japan at the recommendation of a friend. I was a bit anxious about finding the boarding area, but once we got to Waikiki Beach, it was easy to locate, and we set sail about 30 minutes after gathering! Since it was a yacht, it felt amazing, and everyone was very satisfied! The captain and crew were friendly and cool, which really boosted our spirits (laughs). I highly recommend it for anyone who isn't particularly sensitive to motion; it's truly affordable and enjoyable!

友人から すすめられ、日本から10人ほどで予約しました。乗り場がわかるか？不安もありました ワイキキビーチに行けばすぐわかり、集合から30分ほどで、出港！！ヨットなので めちゃくちゃ 気持ちが良く皆んな大満足！！
キャプテンとクルーもフレンドリーで、かっこ良く、テンション上がりました（笑）
乗り物にとても弱い方、以外ならどなたも 本当に、安くて楽しめ、おすすめです！！

Participated in the sunset cocktail sail off Waikiki Beach. Was so plesantly surprised. Enjoyed it immensly. Saw whales as a bonus, the Captain and crew were excellent and helpful with local information. Cocktails great, would highly recommend anyone to go and experience thesail off the beach at Waikiki. Thank you Veltra and Waikiki Rigger Catamaran sail.
