As a cruise, it might be fine, but I was disappointed because I had high expectations for whale watching during this season.

I enjoyed whale watching. ホエールウオッチング楽しめました

Reviewed by: 中年ランナー

It included a pick-up service. They arrive on time. There were only a few Japanese people on the large bus. A Japanese-language video guide was played. After boarding, you can take a seat on the first deck and listen to various explanations (in English), after which you can move freely around the ship. When a whale is spotted, the direction it is seen from the bow is announced based on the clock position, with participants all saying "Keep eyes open" while searching. When someone shouts "8 o'clock!!", everyone looks in that direction. Although we didn't see the whales jumping as in the photos on the website, we could see them spouting water, and there were many moments when we could see their backs quite clearly. I was surprised to see that the whales come so close to downtown Honolulu and Waikiki. The time spent searching for whales was overwhelmingly longer, but it was wonderful to relax while enjoying the pleasant Hawaiian breeze. It's basically a cruise. It might be a bit dangerous for small children running around, and they would probably find it boring anyway. Since this is only available from January to March, I would recommend it to those who can go during this time.

送迎付きでした。時間通りに来てくれます。大型バス乗り合いで日本人は数名程度。日本語の案内ビデオが流れます。乗船後1階デッキに着席し色々説明(英語)を聞いた後は船内を自由に移動できます。クジラが見えたら船首を12時として時計の位置で見えた方向がアナウンスされます。参加者全員が"Keep eyes open"で探しますので、参加者が"8 o'clock!!"と叫ぶと皆8時方角を見る感じです。Webの写真のように飛び上がる姿は見られませんでしたが、潮を吹くと位置が分かり、背が結構見える場面も多かったです。ホノルルのダウンタウン、ワイキキもすぐそこに見える位置までクジラが来ているんだな、と驚きました。クジラを探す時間の方が圧倒的に長いですが、ハワイの心地よい風を浴びながらまったりと過ごす時間は最高でした。基本クルーズですね。小さなお子様は走り回ったりちょっと危険かもしれません、そもそも子供にはつまらないですよね。1月から3月までの限定ですので、この時期に行かれる方にはお勧めしたいです。

Star of Honolulu Sunset Dinner Cruise – 5-Course Steak & Lobster Menu, Polynesian Show & Live Music

Perfect date night excursion!

Reviewed by: Tanya from Canada

To say the Star of Honolulu is a fabulous ship is an understatement!
We were both so impressed the minute we walked up beside her! We really enjoyed everything about our evening! The dancers were so sweet as they welcomed us onboard, our window seats were great, the food was really good, and such a fun atmosphere! Our only complaint was their decision to serve crab legs as part of our meal plan. It was delicious, but just a messy food item to pair with our nice dress clothes & date night. And the views of coastline & Waikiki Beach were phenomenal! I had booked the Friday night cruise, hoping to view the Friday night fireworks off the beach ... but the weather changed those plans on us, which was understandable, we still really enjoyed! This was our first time experiencing a sunset dinner cruise ... and we both said we can't wait to go again on the Star of Honolulu!

Use the whale's spout as a landmark! クジラの潮吹きを目印に!

Reviewed by: かなで

Since I was staying at Prince Waikiki, it was very convenient to depart from the harbor right in front of me. I was also very happy to board the boat from the lovely harbor that I could only admire. Both the first and second floors were fully booked! We happened to get a two-person seat on the right side of the second floor. It wasn't by choice; it was just luck. The sun was quite strong, so a hat and sunglasses were a must! However, the wind was also strong, so be careful not to let them fly away! Looking closely at the water, I could see flying fish sparkling! In the distance, there was Diamond Head! The scenery was amazing. Everyone pointed out the whales by saying "There it is!" so I was able to spot them. They were a bit far away, but it was fun to search for them together, shouting "There it is!" The announcements were in English, but they didn't say anything too complicated. It was important to listen carefully to the safety instructions. We were fortunate to have good seats, and whales often appeared on the right side of the boat.

プリンスワイキキに宿泊していたので、目の前のハーバーからの出港で楽ちんでした。
そして、眺めるばかりのステキなハーバーから船にのれたのもとても嬉しかったです。
お客さんは1階席、2階席ともに満席でした!
私達は2階席の右サイドの二人席をたまたまGETできました。選んだわけではなくたまたま。
日差しは強めなので、帽子とサングラスはマストでした!しかし、風も強いので飛んでいかないように注意です!
水面をよくよく見るとトビウオがキラキラ!遠くをみるとダイアモンドヘッド!景色も最高です。
クジラの潮吹きを目印に「いたー!」と、皆が教えてくれるので、ちゃんとみつけられました。少し遠くだけれど、居たぞー!あそこだー!と、みんなで探すのは楽しかったです!
アナウンスは英語ですが、難しい事はあまり言っていません。注意事項はしっかり聴く必要があります。
良い席に恵まれ、船の右サイド側にクジラが現れてくれることが多かったです。

Great experience and must do!

Reviewed by: Jose and Claudia.

We celebrated the night before our marriage on this event. We were a large group of 27. They accommodated us and sat us all together. The entertainment and the food were excellent. The servers kept everything flowing and joyful. Very organized and fun. I really enjoyed the dancers and singers. They performed in front of us and had them all over so everyone could enjoy them. The only bummer was that I specifically chose to go on the Friday sunset cruise for the firework show. However, it didn’t happen due to the winds. I was very sad. Other than that, I thought it was a fabulous experience.

A few whales put on a great show. 数頭のクジラが大サービス

Reviewed by: ラッキー

I experienced whale watching starting at 10:30. I set off without much expectation, hoping to enjoy the deep blue sea and sky. After encountering a group of dolphins, we came across several whales. For more than 10 minutes, they swam close by, and although they didn't jump high, they showed us their pectoral fins and tails. Everyone was incredibly excited by the amazing display. We were very lucky.

It's a shame I couldn't take good photos because I was so engrossed in watching!

10時半からのWhale watching を体験。真青な海と空を楽しめればとあまり期待せずに出発。イルカたちが集まっている様子の所に出会った後、数頭のクジラに。10分以上かもっと、すぐ近くを泳いで、大ジャンプこそないものの、胸ビレやtailを見せてくれました。信じられないほどの大サービスに皆が大興奮でした。とても運が良かったです。
見る方に夢中で良い写真が撮れなかったのが残念!

It was cold in January 2023! 2023年1月 寒かった~

Reviewed by: kisarin

I participated in January 2023.
The view of the land from the sea was incredibly beautiful. The sunset was also wonderful. However, as the day went on, the wind picked up and it got quite cold, so I spread out the beach towel I brought and used it to sit on and cover my shoulders. It might be a good idea to bring a jacket during this time. Although there was an all-you-can-drink option, it was too cold, and I could only have one drink at the start. When the catamaran set sail, everyone started dancing to the upbeat music and stood up to take photos, creating a very cheerful atmosphere. Although Japanese was not spoken, the vibe was very lively.

2023年1月に参加
海から見える陸の景色は最高にきれいでした。サンセットもすばらしかった。しかしだんだんと日が暮れていくにつれて、この日は風も強くて、だいぶ寒くなり持参したバスタオルを敷いて座ったり、肩にかけたりしていた。この時期上着は持って行った方がいいかも。飲み放題だったけど寒くて最初の1杯しか飲めなかった。カタマラン号が出航するとノリノリの音楽に合わせて踊りだしたり、立ちあがって写真を撮ったりとみんなとても陽気に楽しんでいた。日本語は通じませんが、とてもノリの良い雰囲気でした。

The cruise was great overall. Love that we could bring our own drinks so we can make whatever we want. Views were amazing when the sunset. Cotton candy skies with views of the city of Honolulu and diamond head. Also saw tons of dolphins so the captain got our boat right in the middle of all of them so we could watch them swim right next to the boat. The crew was very friendly and helped with any questions needed as well as offering to take photos for me and my friends and everyone else who wanted pics on the boat. So fun overall
