We participated as a family of three. The sky was cloudy, and the sunset was a bit disappointing, but we were lucky enough to see whales! Two of them!! We thoroughly enjoyed the sight of their dorsal fins, bodies, and tails rising from the waves. All the participants let out joyful cheers. The highlight was the moment when both whales raised their tails high before diving—what an incredible experience! We are truly grateful for this opportunity. The crew's attentiveness made for a fantastic sailing experience!
家族3人で参加しました。曇り空で夕日は少し期待はずれでしたが、なんと鯨がクジラが見れました! 2頭も!!
波間からの背びれ 胴体 尾びれ 余すところなく堪能しました。参加者全員歓喜の雄叫びです。圧巻は2頭が尾びれを高く上げて潜る最高の瞬間でした。この機会に感謝しかありません。

Even if the weather wasn't really great during our experience, we still had a great time chilling in the boat watching the view, snorkeling and had dinner and drinks. It was a really good value for the price since the dinner and alcoholic beverage were also included. The crew was really great too and we spent time talking to them as well. Captain Don, Trent and Jacob were really fun and helpful throughout the experience. Even if we didn't see the sunset because of the weather, it was still great because we saw a humpback whale swimming next to us.

First of all, Mason Captain's Japanese is incredibly good! I was surprised at how well he speaks, to the point where I thought he might be better than some Japanese people, as he learned it by ear.
We were the only Japanese people there, but he provided translations for all the announcements without slowing down the tempo, keeping everyone engaged. He is truly amazing.
The clientele was also great; there were elderly gentlemen and ladies who surprised me by snorkeling down to about 5 meters deep. Additionally, they opened the restrooms that were only for park members for us when we urgently needed them, which was very kind of them.
Before COVID, it seems that about 30-40% of the guests were Japanese, but after COVID, it appears that hardly any Japanese people have returned. However, even for those who are not good at English, there is really no trouble at all, and the food was delicious. It was the best activity, so I really hope everyone gets to experience it!
To Mason,
Wishing you and your fiancée happiness!
Thank you!
まず、メイソンキャプテンの日本語がめちゃくちゃ上手い!
耳で覚えたとのことですが、日本人より上手いんじゃないか、ってくらいのレベルでびっくりしちゃいました。
日本人は僕らだけでしたが、全部のアナウンスに和訳も添えてくれて、なのにテンポ落とさずに全員を盛り上げていて、本当にすごい人です。
客層も良く、高齢の殿方とご婦人もいらっしゃいましたが皆さんシュノーケルで5mくらいある底まで潜っていらっしゃったりしてびっくりしました。
あとパークメンバーオンリーのお手洗いを急を要していた我々のために開けてくれたりして、素敵な方々でした。
コロナ前までは3-4割は日本人のお客さんだったそうですが、アフターコロナはほとんど日本人が戻ってきてないそうです。
ただ、英語苦手な方でも本当に全く困らないし、ご飯も美味しくて最高のアクティビティだったので、是非みんな行ってみて欲しいです!

婚約者の方とお幸せに!

There were surprisingly many participants. Although it wasn't planned, the captain chased after whales and sea turtles when the opportunity arose. The view of the Ko Olina hotels from the sea was incredibly vast. The waves were a bit high, but it was beautiful.

We participated as a family of three. We have been to Hawaii many times, but this was our first stay in Ko Olina, so we decided to book the sunset sailing that everyone could enjoy. It turned out to be a great decision!! The beer enjoyed while feeling the pleasant breeze was very delicious. The sunset offered a breathtakingly beautiful view and the atmosphere was wonderful, creating unforgettable memories. Although the prices were high due to the weak yen, it was a tour worth more than that.
家族3人での参加です。ハワイは何度も来ていますが、今回は初めてのコオリナ泊だった為、皆で楽しめそうな、こちらのサンセットセーリングを申込みしました。結果、大正解でした!!心地よい風に当たりながらいただくビールはとても美味しかったです。サンセットは息をのむような美しい景色で雰囲気もよく、忘れられない思い出になりました。円安でお値段高かったですが、それ以上に価値のあるツアーでした。
This is a tour I definitely recommend for those staying in Ko Olina. Enjoying a beer while watching the sunset is the best!!

Just a short distance from the Marriott Hotel in Ko Olina.
We walked along the beautiful coastline and arrived at the marina.
There were about 30 people on board.
We were the only Japanese, but there was a nice couple on their honeymoon.
There were also families with children.
We enjoyed conversations, even with our limited language skills.
Of course, the sunset cruise was amazing.

The marina office might be a little hard to find, but if you follow the instructions everything will go as planned. The captain and crew were first rate. Very solicitous of each passenger's needs. Wished we could have stayed out later, as the captain recommended, but one of our party needed to get back for a dinner reservation. The food and drink on board were much more than sufficient for us for dinner. I suggest not making dinner reservations so you can stay out on the ocean longer!

My husband and I really enjoyed the Sunset Snorkel Cruise! The views were beautiful and the crew were so nice! I was nervous about trying to snorkel but the crew was super helpful and I felt safe (life vest and I was able to use a floatie as well) and we saw lots of colorful fish and sea turtles! The cocktail service was great, tasty and generous. Unfortunately during the return portion of the cruise, I felt a bit seasick (did not really affect my enjoyment of the cruise though) so only ate rice for dinner but my husband enjoyed the food which was plentiful. If you are prone to motion sickness (which I am) that would be my only advice, I forgot my accupressure wristbands which do actually work fairly well. I liked that the group was small and we had the freedom to move around and sit and stand where we wanted and all the guests were pleasant and we felt comfortable socializing and getting to talk to other people. I highly recommend this cruise!

This was a great, relaxing sailing along the ko’olina coast. The drinks and snacks were surprisingly really good. We have 3 children (15, 12, and 9) and they all had a good time. There are some amazing views and the vibe is very laid-back. One of the crew-members (Ali) was awesome with my 15 year old who is really interested in going to school in Hawaii. She took time to share her personal experiences with her and it was greatly appreciated. The entire crew was great and we really enjoyed this tour.

I participated in this tour in early February 2023. One of the things I wanted to do in winter Hawaii was whale watching, and since my hotel was Aulani, I joined this tour departing from Ko Olina Marina.
It takes about 25 minutes to walk from Aulani to Ko Olina Marina, and about 5 minutes by car. The tour included four alcoholic drinks, so I walked there instead of driving, but I was a bit tired on the way back (^_^;).
Upon arriving at the marina, the check-in area was easy to find. I signed in on the list, received a wristband, used the restroom, and boarded the boat. There were about 15 to 20 guests at that time, but we were the only Japanese group. All the explanations were in English, but a young Japanese male staff member came later to explain in Japanese, and he also supported us during snorkeling, which was very helpful!
After the boat headed out to sea, we encountered a mother and baby whale! I was incredibly excited to see the whales spouting water and their tails coming up to the surface with my own eyes! Since it was an evening tour, we didn’t see any dolphins, but I was very satisfied to have encountered the whales.
After that, we went to the snorkeling point and enjoyed snorkeling. During this time, we encountered a sea turtle. I was moved to see it coming up from the bottom of the ocean for air, floating on the surface, and then returning to the ocean floor, all from a very close distance! The water was a bit cold during this season, but I was glad I participated in snorkeling! After snorkeling, it was chilly, so I changed from my swimsuit to regular clothes in the boat's restroom. The restroom was a bit spacious with shelves, making it suitable for changing. There were two restrooms, one on each side at the back.
After snorkeling, we enjoyed dinner and the sunset. The dinner was served on a single plate, but it was piled high, so I was full! The taste was also delicious. The sunset from the boat was absolutely beautiful.
I think this is a highly recommended activity for those staying around Ko Olina!
2023年2月上旬に参加しました。
冬のハワイでやりたい事がホェールウォッチングで、宿泊ホテルがアウラニだったのでコオリナマリーナから出発するこちらのツアーに参加しました。
アウラニからコオリナマリーナまでは歩いて片道25分くらい、車だと片道5分くらいです。ツアーにアルコールが4本かな?含まれていたので車は使わずに歩いて行きましたが帰りはちょっと疲れました(^_^;)
マリーナに到着して受付の場所はわかりやすかったです。名簿に記帳してリストバンドを付けて、御手洗を済ませてボートに乗り込みます。
この時は15名?20名??くらいお客さんが居ましたが日本人は私たちのグループだけでした。
色々な説明は全て英語でしたが、若い日本人男性のスタッフさんがあとから日本語で説明しに来てくださって、その後のシュノーケルもサポートしてもらえたのでとても助かりました!
ボートが沖に出て少しするとクジラの親子に遭遇出来ました!肉眼でクジラの潮吹きや海面の上に出てきた尾びれを見られてものすごく興奮しました!夕方のツアーなので時間的にイルカは見られませんでしたがクジラに遭遇出来たので大満足でした。
その後シュノーケルポイントに行って、シュノーケルを楽しみました。この時に海亀に遭遇出来ました。海の底から息をにし浮上してくる様子や海面をぷかぷかしている様子、また海の底に帰って行く様子を近づくことが出来るギリギリの距離で見られて感動しました!
この時期の海はちょっと寒かったですが、でもシュノーケル参加して良かったです!
シュノーケルの後は寒かったのでボートのおトイレで水着から私服に着替えました。おトイレは少しだけ広めで棚とかがあったので着替えスペースも兼ねている感じでした。おトイレは後方左右に1つずつ計2つありました。
シュノーケルが終わるとディナーとサンセットを楽しみます。ディナーはワンプレートですがモリモリに盛ってもらえたのでお腹いっぱいになりました!味も美味しかったです。ボートからのサンセットもすごく素敵でした。
コオリナ周辺で宿泊されている方にはとてもおすすめのアクティビティだと思います~。

The park is large, so the reception building is a bit hard to find. I think it's safer to arrive a little earlier.
