All Reviews for Casual Cruises

I came back and had a Mai Tai at home, but I miss the Mai Tai from that boat. Last time, the sea was rough and I couldn't ride, but I'm very satisfied this time.

帰ってきて、家でマイタイ呑みましたが、あの船のマイタイが恋しくてmissingです
前回、海が荒れて乗れなかったのですが大満足です。

You can enjoy a wonderful sunset cruise while admiring Diamond Head on a uniquely shaped boat that is hard to find in Japan. We start with a toast as Mai Tai cocktails flow from the tap! (If you don't drink, you can choose something else.) Other alcoholic beverages are also all-you-can-drink, allowing you to spend a pleasant time feeling the breeze in an open space.

The boarding area is near a power spot called Kavehevehe, so be sure to check it out before or after your cruise. It will cleanse both your mind and body!

The meeting point is just a short walk through the Sheraton Hotel, making it especially recommended if you're staying at a hotel near the Sheraton!

なかなか日本ではお目にかからない形の船に乗り、ダイアモンドヘッドを眺めながら素敵なサンセットクルーズができます。
マイタイカクテルが蛇口から出るスタイルで最初に乾杯します！（飲めない方は別の選べます）
ほかのアルコールも飲み放題で、開放的な空間で風を感じながら気持ちの良いひと時を過ごせます。
乗り場はカヴェヘヴェヘというパワースポットが近くなので、前後でぜひ行ってみてください。心身ともに浄化されます！

シェラトンホテルの中を突っ切っていけばすぐの待ち合わせ場所で、シェラトン近辺のホテル宿泊なら特にお勧めします！

The wind, the sunset, and Mai Tai!! Enjoying champagne while gazing at the streets of Honolulu, the rainbow, and the setting sun was just the best. It was an extraordinary experience. I definitely want to participate again next time! ^_^

風と夕日とマイタイ‼️ホノルルの街並み、虹、沈む夕日を眺めながらのシャンパン、もう最高でした。非日常の世界でした。次回も是非参加したいです^_^

I saw it in a travel magazine and decided to include it in our schedule. The weather was a bit bad on the day we went, but when I suddenly looked at Diamond Head, there was a rainbow over it. The sway of the yacht as we moved over the waves, everyone swaying to the music and enjoying drinks, the excitement with people from various countries, and the sunset sinking into the sea was absolutely beautiful. The night view on the way back was fantastic, and it was truly a fun two hours. Thank you to the staff of Nahoku for creating such a wonderful time.

旅行雑誌で見かけて、スケジュールに入れて見ました、私達が行った日は少し天気が悪かったのですが、ふとダイヤモンドヘッドを見るとレインボーがかかってました。波の上を進む時のヨットの揺れ、音楽に乗ってみな身体を揺らしお酒を楽しみ、様々な国の人との盛り上がり、また海に沈む夕陽は最高にビューティフルでした。帰る時は夜景が最高で本当に楽しい2時間でした。盛り上げて下さったナホクのスタッフの方本当に素晴らしい時間をありがとうございました。

From the crew staff to the crowd and the music the vibe was perfect!!!! I definitely had a great time!!! And the captain definitely gave us more than three drinks for sure!

About an hour before the gathering, I checked the boat's location, and when I arrived 30 minutes prior, I panicked because the boat was missing. The voucher mentioned that there might not be a boat even at the check-in time, but it also stated that due to sea conditions, the departure could be from a completely different beach. It said they would contact us individually, but since there was no international phone number, I was worried that I might have been left behind. In the end, the boat did not arrive until the departure time, and there was no shade on the beach under the blazing sun, with no restrooms nearby, so arriving too early is something to be cautious about.

However, once on board, I found a bar where you could drink freely, and later it turned into a lively club atmosphere with upbeat music (the passengers on passing boats seemed a bit taken aback), which really made me feel like I was experiencing something international! I would like to use this service again if I have the chance. Shoes are stored away, and it's barefoot on the boat. It gets quite wet, so wearing a swimsuit with a rash guard was definitely the right choice!

集合の１時間ほど前に船の位置を下見して、30分前に行ったら船がなく焦りました。
バウチャーにはチェックインの時間になっても船がないことがあるとは書いてありましたが、海況で全く違うビーチ発になることもあるとも書いてあり、個別連絡するとは書いてあるもの、海外用の電話番号もなかったためまさか置いてかれたのか？と気が気ではありませんでした。。
結局出港の時間まで船は来ず、炎天下のビーチで日陰はなく、近くにはトイレもないので、早く着きすぎるのも要注意です。

ただ、乗ってみたら気軽に飲み放題できるバーと後半はノリノリBGMのクラブ状態（すれ違った船の乗客は若干引くほど）でまさに海外を味わえた気がしますｗ
また機会があったらこちらを利用したいな、とは思いました。
靴は仕舞われ船上は裸足。結構濡れるので水着にラッシュで正解でした！

First Hats off to Veltra! They went above and beyond to accommodate us after I chose the wrong event!

This sunset cruise was amazing! The weather was perfect the crew was fun, accommodating and the music was perfect! We could not have asked for a better evening!

Our group had a great time! However, we weren't expecting to get wet on the ride. I think that should be included in the description - as I think it's quite common. Drinks were tasty and the views of the sunset at Waikiki were excellent.

I experienced cruising for the first time, and it was wonderful. The sunset was truly beautiful and moving. After heading out to sea, I was nervous about the swimming time, thinking the water might be cold, but surprisingly it wasn't and the temperature was quite pleasant (for reference, it was mid-October). However, a large towel and long sleeves are essential. I was also happy with the snack service after playing. Taking motion sickness medication beforehand was the right choice. It was a lot of fun.

初めてクルージングを体験しましたが、とても良かったです。
サンセットが本当に美しく感動でした。
沖に出た後のスイミングタイムは、水が冷たいのではないかと、ドキドキしながら入りましたが、意外にそうでもなく気持ちの良い温度でした(参考までに10月中旬です)。
ただ大きいタオル、長袖は必須です。
遊んだ後にスナックのサービスも嬉しかったです。
酔い止めは飲んでおいて正解でした。
楽しかったです。

Beautiful relaxing evening. Free-flowing drinks. Thoroughly enjoyable sail.

It departs from in front of Waikiki Beach, so the atmosphere is very nice. Unlike large vessels, you can feel the refreshing breeze and the sense of openness is fantastic. The music is great, and the vibe was the best.
When getting on and off the yacht, there are times when you might get wet up to your pants. Be careful.

ワイキキビーチの前から出発するので、とても雰囲気が良いです、大きい船舶と違い、風を受けながら開放感満点です、音楽もいいし、雰囲気最高でした
ヨットに乗り降りする時、ズボンのあたりまで濡れる時があります。注意しましょう。

We had a wonderful time on the cruise, the staff were friendly and accommodating. We enjoyed the atmosphere and music on board, didn't expect to get drenched on some big waves, but we had a blast. Would highly recommend the cruise!!!

It would be nice if the back ground music was not exist. Since the sailing time only with soft wave sound, would be my best prefered environment.

I had wanted to go on the Mai Tai Catamaran since last year. It departs right in front of the Sheraton where I was staying. The two skippers were really enthusiastic and it was a lot of fun. There were three groups of Japanese participants, including a baby. The sunset was breathtakingly beautiful.

去年から行きたかったマイタイカタマラン号。宿泊していたシェラトンの真ん前から出航します。スキッパーの二人がノリノリで楽しかったです。
日本人は3組参加。赤ちゃんもいました。サンセットは息を呑む美しさでした。

My wife and I participated together. We went out to sea on a catamaran, enjoyed snorkeling, made our way to the surfboard relying on our safety lines, and spent a thrilling half day. During sunset, they played ballads, and we were able to have a wonderful time. The cost performance was excellent. Thank you ❤️

妻と二人で参加させて頂きました。カタマランで沖に出て、シュノーケリングを楽しんで、命綱を頼りにサーフボードまでたどり着き、スリリングな半日を過ごしました。サンセットタイムにはバラードを流して頂き素敵な時間を過ごすことが出来ました。コスパ最高でした。ありがとう❤️

The boat, the sea, and all the staff were wonderful and fun.

I look forward to next time!

⛴️、海、️､､､及びスタッフの皆さんは、素敵楽しかった。

今度、またよろしくね❗️
‍♂️‍♀️

Went on this sunset cruise with my wife on our honeymoon and gotta say it was definitely a highlight! Big Ryan was super cool too

The people operating the cruise made it fantastic! I wouldn’t think any other sunset sail would be as good as what these three gentlemen did. Would recommend to everyone.

It's a very convenient boat trip to consider entering the sea, starting from a location near the canal's seaside exit, within walking distance from our hotel. We returned still in our swimsuits.

We moved out to Waikiki Beach (about a 10-minute ride?), enjoyed activities like diving and playing in the sea, and by the time we were fully satisfied, it was sunset. We watched the sun sink into the ocean on our way back. The timing was just right. The water temperature was neither too cold nor too warm. I realized that it's easier to float in the sea than in the pool.

The boat had a bar counter where you could buy drinks. The crew was cheerful and serious, making us feel safe and able to enjoy ourselves. I recommend taking motion sickness medication in advance.

運河の海側の出口近く、我々のホテルから歩けるところからの出発で、海に入ることを考えるととても便利な船遊びです。帰りも水着のままで帰ってきました。
ワイキキビーチ沖まで移動して(10分くらい？)、飛び込みなど海遊びをして、満喫した頃に日没の時間。海に沈む夕日を眺めて帰ってくる。時間配分もちょうどよかったです。水温は冷たすぎず、ぬる過ぎず。海の方がプールより浮きやすいのを実感しました。
船には、バーカウンターがあり、飲み物を買うことができます。
クルーはみな陽気で真面目な印象で、安心して楽しめました。
事前の酔い止め服用は、お勧めします。

We participated with a family of eight right at sunset! It was amazing to enjoy the beautiful scenery while sipping on our favorite drinks like Mai Tais and pineapple juice! Families with small children were having fun going in and out of the deck and the room. We were able to leave our bags in the room and enjoy ourselves freely on the deck with drinks in hand. The restrooms were separated by gender, which was reassuring.
Next time I go to Hawaii, I definitely want to join again at sunset!

ちょうどサンセットの時間帯に家族8人で参加しました！　マイタイ、パイナップルジュース…それぞれが好きなドリンクを飲みながら本当に素敵な景色で最高でした！小さなお子さんを連れて参加の方はデッキに出たり部屋に入ったりして楽しまれてました。荷物も部屋に置くことができてドリンクを片手にデッキの好きな所で自由にそれぞれが楽しんでいました。トイレも男女別々にあって安心できました。
次ハワイに行った時もまたサンセットの時間に参加したいです！

There are various sunset cruises, but I chose this one because it also offers water activities. There were hardly any Japanese people, but it was more fun than I imagined! Two cute dogs greeted us. I'm not great with animals, but they were very calm, so it was totally fine. We jumped into the sea from the boat using a slide and floated on a float! We were lucky to see a big double rainbow! Drinks are available for a fee starting at $3. I enjoyed a cocktail. It says no outside food or drink, but there were people with their own bottles. There's a shop in the harbor waiting area after check-in, so some people bought shave ice or soft serve and ate while boarding. There are plenty of floats to attach around your waist, so even if you're not a strong swimmer, I think you'll enjoy it. Please make sure to wear a swimsuit!

サンセットクルーズは色々ありますが、海遊びもできるとの事で選びました。
日本人はほとんどいなかったけど、想像以上に楽しかった！
可愛いワンチャンが2匹お出迎え。わたくし動物は苦手ですが、とても大人しいので全然大丈夫でした。
ボートから海にスライダーで飛び込んだり、フロートで浮いたり！大きなダブルレインボーも見えてラッキー！
ドリンクは有料で3ドルから。私はカクテルを楽しみました。持ち込み不可とありますがマイボトル持ってる人もいましたよ。受付後のハーバーの待合でショップがあるのでシェイブアイスやソフトクリームを買って、食べながら乗り込む人も。
腰に付けるフロートがたくさんあるので、(ライフジャケットは限りあるかな？)泳ぎが苦手でも楽しめると思います。ぜひ水着着用で参加してください！

We set sail at 5:30 PM while it was still bright, enjoying the view of Waikiki from the sea, which is something you don't often get to see, along with free drinks. We also enjoyed the changing sunset, and the staff took photos for us. By the time we returned to Waikiki, it was completely nighttime, and we were able to enjoy the various views of the Waikiki skyline from the sea.

まだ明るいじかんの17:30に出港で、普段はなかなか見ることの少ない海からのワイキキの景色を楽しみながらフリードリンクをいただきました。
変わりゆくサンセットも堪能しスタッフの方が写真撮影もしてくださいました。
ワイキキに戻る時間はすっかり夜景時間となり、イロイロな海からのワイキキの街並みも楽しめました。

I felt strong swells at the beach, but it was completely calm offshore. I only remembered going out to see the sunset and coming back before, but this time we cruised all the way around Diamond Head while enjoying the sunset, fully savoring the refreshing experience on the catamaran. It was only in English, but there were no particular issues. The free soft drink was a very light pineapple flavor? (laughs) That wasn't the main purpose, so it was just a little charm. I went on the last day, and it was casual and a fitting way to cap off the final day; it was a great trip. I absolutely recommend it.

浜辺ではうねりが強い感じがしましたが沖は全く静か。以前は沖に出て夕陽を見て帰って来ただけの記憶でしたが、ダイヤモンドヘッドの裏側まで夕陽を見ながらずーっとクルーズ、めいっぱいカタマランでの爽快感を堪能できました。英語のみですが特に問題はなかったです。フリーのソフトドリンクはうすーいパイナップル味？笑。それが目的ではないのでそこもご愛嬌。最後の日に行きましたが気軽ですし最終日を飾るにふさわしい、良い旅でした。
絶対おすすめです。

I participated with my wife and two daughters, a total of four people. Most of the participants were from overseas, and we were probably the only Japanese family there. I was the only one in my family drinking alcohol, so I had the famous Mai Tai while the other three enjoyed soft drinks. The waves were relatively calm, so it didn't sway as much as I had worried it would. I enjoyed my drink while being blown by the wind, and the pleasantness made me keep drinking, leading to about five or six more Mai Tais and sparkling wines. Unfortunately, the cloud conditions were a bit poor, so I couldn't see the "perfect sunset," but I was able to see a big rainbow, making it a very satisfying boat trip.

妻と2人の娘、計4人で参加しました。
参加者のほとんどが海外の方で、日本人はおそらく私たち家族だけでした。
家族の中でお酒を飲むのは私だけだったので、私は名物マイタイを、あとの3人はソフトドリンクを頂きました。
波が比較的穏やかだったので心配していたほど揺れることもなく、風に吹かれながら美味しく飲み、あまりの気持ち良さに酒も進んでマイタイのおかわりやスパークリングワインなど5、6杯も頂いてしまいました。
残念ながら雲の条件がやや悪く“100点満点の夕陽”は拝めませんでしたが、大きな虹を見ることができ、大満足の船旅になりました。

Excellent time with spectacular scenic views. Highly recommend!

What a fabulous trip.
My partner and i thoroughly enjoyed every minute. Stevie and the crew were amazing and made the trip so enjoyable.
A trip not to be missed. The views are spectacular watching the sunset from the catamaran.
Highly recommend.

We had a great time on the sunset cruise. It was really easy and relaxing. And what a sunset!

I participated five years ago and had such a great time that this time I joined with my parents and my brother's family, a total of ten people. The view of the Waikiki hotel district from the ocean side was refreshing, and we could see Diamond Head up close. The sunset was incredibly beautiful. The kids and my father had so much fun and were very happy, saying they want to participate again.

This time the waves were high, and I got a little seasick, but that's also a good memory.

5年前に参加し、とても良かったので今回は親と弟家族総勢10名で参加しました。海側から見るワイキキのホテル街も新鮮だし、ダイヤモンドヘッドも近くで見られるし、夕日が沈むのがとても綺麗でした。子供達も父も凄く楽しかった・また参加したいと大喜びでした。
今回は波が高くてちょっと酔ってしまいましたが、それも良い思い出です。

I had a great time enjoying myself and my friend did too. The music was spot on. The candor of the crew was lovely. I highly recommend this cruise!! I would definitely do it again

As mentioned in the description, there was an exciting thrill like an attraction. It was very fun with splashes of water. The sunset was beautiful, and I was able to fully enjoy the Hawaiian sea. The explanations during the cruise were only in English, and Japanese was hardly understood. Since there were people from small children to the elderly, I think a wide range of people can enjoy it. Although it says unlimited alcohol, they only provide one type of cocktail, and it seemed difficult to get anything else. Since they serve while navigating, it might be understandable, but it’s quite strong, so be careful not to drink too much.

説明にもあったように、アトラクション的なワクワクドキドキがありました
水しぶきがかかったりして、とても楽しかったです
夕日も綺麗でハワイの海を満喫できました
乗船中の説明は英語のみで、日本語はほとんど通じません
小さい子から年配の方までいらしたので、幅広い方が楽しめると思います
アルコール飲み放題とありますが、提供するのは一種類のカクテルで、その他はなかなかもらえなそうな雰囲気でした
操縦しながらの提供なので仕方ないかもしれないけど、結構キツめなので飲み過ぎ注意です
