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~。

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.

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。

I made a reservation for an event for both families after the wedding. The boat was about the size to accommodate around 30 people, and the cozy atmosphere was very nice. The gentle rocking felt like an attraction, and getting splashed with water occasionally was one of the joys that larger boats don't offer. Before booking the tour, I thought it was a bit short for the price, but after watching the setting sun, I was able to relax and enjoy the night view of Waikiki, which left me very satisfied. The variety of drinks was also impressive, which made me happy as a fan of alcohol.
結婚式後の両家でのイベントとして予約しました♪
30人入るか入らないか位の船の大きさで、アットホームな雰囲気がとても良かったです。アトラクションのような揺れで時折り水飛沫がかかるのも大型船にはない楽しみの1つだと感じました。ツアーを予約する前は時間としては短めのツアーでその割に値段も高く感じましたが、沈む太陽を見たあとはワイキキの夜景をゆったりと楽しむことができとっても満足感がありました。
お酒の種類も充実しておりお酒好きとしても嬉しかったです。

I enjoyed cocktails, beer, and even champagne while watching the sunset from the ship in the evening, feeling incredibly rich.
The cruise lasted about an hour and a half, and I was able to see the night view from the sea, which made for a truly enjoyable time.
I participated alone this time, but I was able to chat with various people and have fun.
I highly recommend it!
夕方から出港して夕焼け見ながらのカクテルにビール、シャンパンまでもサイコーにリッチな気分で楽しめました
約1時間半のクルージングですが、海の上から夜景までもみることができ、ほんとに楽しい時間を過ごすことができました
今回、ひとりでの参加でしたが、いろんな方とも会話でき楽しめますよ

I participated in the sunset tour on the Mai Tai Catamaran. Enjoying drinks while watching the sun gradually set over the ocean, with the waves and a pleasant breeze, it became the best memory. After the sunset, we were able to view the night scenery of Honolulu from the sea, enjoying various beautiful sights. It gets a bit chilly after the sun goes down, so I recommend bringing a jacket. I was very satisfied with the approximately two-hour tour.

海の上からお酒を飲みながら、だんだん沈んでゆく太陽、波の上、風が心地よく、最高の思い出になりました。サンセットの後は、ホノルルの夜景を海側から眺めることができ、色々なけしきを堪能できます。
日が沈むと少し肌寒くなるので上着はあったほうが良いと思います。
