I was able to see wild dolphins and sea turtles. 野生のイルカと海ガメを見れました

Reviewed by: はっしー

It was a clear day, and we were able to see wild dolphins and sea turtles. There were plenty of activities like slides, trampolines, and crew dances, which made it a lot of fun. I bought a rash guard from Dolphin & You as a souvenir! It was my first time abroad, and it became a wonderful memory.

当日は快晴で野生のイルカやウミガメを見ることができました。
滑り台やトランポリン、クルーのダンス等盛りだくさんでとても楽しかったです。
記念にドルフィン&ユーのラッシュガードを買いました!
初めての海外でしたがとても良い思い出になりました。

The dolphins, the sea turtles, and the staff were all amazing! ♪ イルカもウミガメもスタッフも最高♪

Reviewed by: とめさん

The optional tour I was looking forward to the most on this trip was amazing! I encountered dolphins and sea turtles multiple times, which was the highlight!

There were two snorkeling sessions: the first at a dolphin spot and the second at a sea turtle and tropical fish spot. After that, we had free time where we could continue snorkeling, relax on the boat, or play on the slide and water trampoline. We had so much fun!

The staff were all cheerful, and we enjoyed dancing together on the boat. The BBQ hamburgers were also very delicious.

I recommend bringing an underwater camera. Even as a beginner, I was able to take great photos! I can't mention other rental sites, but you can rent one in Japan for about 5,000 yen for a week, so definitely consider it!

今回の旅行でイチバン楽しみにしていたオプションツアー
イルカともウミガメとも何度も遭遇できて最高でした!

シュノーケリングは2回あって、1回目はイルカスポット、2回目はウミガメや熱帯魚スポット。
その後は自由時間でそのままシュノーケリングもよし、船でゆっくりもよし、滑り台や水上トランポリンで遊んでもよしと、めいっぱい遊べました!

スタッフもみんな陽気な方ばかりで、船上でダンスをして一緒に楽しみました。
BBQハンバーガーもとても美味しくいただきました。

水中カメラを持って行くのをオススメします。
素人でもしっかり撮れましたよ!
他のサイトの宣伝は書けませんが、日本で5000円出せば1週間程度レンタルできるのでぜひぜひ♪

Amazing experience

The dolphin excursion was amazing. We learned so much about dolphins and enjoyed snorkeling with them. The staff was so friendly and helpful. They even have a photographer taking pictures. This is a must do activity and me and my children can't wait to go back and do it again.

I was able to see dolphins!!! イルカ見れました!!!

Reviewed by: なおみ

I was able to see dolphins!!!
Since I had heard that wild dolphins might not be seen sometimes, I was a bit worried about today, but I was truly moved to be able to see them o(^▽^)o♡
I was able to see them so clearly that I felt like I was looking at an aquarium tank.
I got to watch them swim for a while, and I was so happy to see a small baby dolphin too!
They swam quite close to us.
The dolphins were really cute o(^▽^)o
Not only dolphins, but I also saw about five or six sea turtles!
It was my first time seeing so many sea turtles up close, and I was really impressed!
When they came up for air, I was able to see them so closely, it was amazing!! I regretted not bringing an underwater camera... (laughs)
On the boat heading to the dolphin swimming point, the crew members kept the atmosphere lively, and we had a great time♡
The hula dance was wonderful too♡♡
I've participated in various tours before, but I think this was the most fun tour I've ever had!
The Japanese was so good, just like a native speaker, so I had no trouble during the tour (^。^)
I definitely want to participate again when I go to Hawaii! Thank you so much!

イルカ見れました〜!!!
本当に野生のイルカだから
見れない時もあると聞いていたので、今日はどうかなーと少し心配でしたが見ることができて本当に感動しましたo(^▽^)o♡
水族館の水槽を見てるのかと思ったぐらいにしっかり見れました〜
しばらく泳ぐ姿を見ることができたし、
小さい赤ちゃんイルカも見れて嬉しかったです!
私たちの割と近くを泳いでくれました。
イルカ本当に可愛かったo(^▽^)o
イルカだけじゃなくて海ガメも5〜6匹見れました!
あんなに近くで、あれだけの海ガメを見たのは初めてで大感動でした!
息継ぎをしに上がってきた時は本当に近くで見れて感動!!水中カメラ持って行けば良かったと後悔しました・・・(笑)
イルカが泳いでいるポイントまで向かうときの船でもクルーの方々が盛り上げてくれて楽しく過ごせました♡
フラダンスも素敵でした♡♡
今までいろんなツアーに参加してきたけど
1番楽しかったと思うツアーになりました!
日本語も日本人みたいに上手だったのでツアー中も何不自由なかったです(^。^)
またハワイに行ったらぜひ参加したいです!ありがとうございました〜!

I was thrilled to finally meet the Dolphins and the crew! 念願のドルフィンとクルーの皆さんに感激

Reviewed by: MIC

Last time I went to Hawaii, I participated in a dolphin tour with another company, but I got seasick and had to give up snorkeling. This time, I was really looking forward to swimming with the dolphins. However, due to the effects of the hurricane, we weren't able to see the dolphins on the first day, despite the high probability of encountering them.

However, since my husband couldn't swim and immediately cramped up, the Japanese guide helped him with a float and guided him to where the sea turtles were, so he was able to enjoy himself even without seeing the dolphins. I used a half-price ticket for not seeing the dolphins and tried again the next day.

I was truly moved to be able to swim close to the dolphins I had longed for, to see many fish, and to see many sea turtles up close. More than that, I was touched by the morning call, the crew's hula dance and performances on the boat, and the crew's desire for many people to meet the dolphins.

There are various dolphin tours offered by different companies, but I highly recommend Dolphin and You. I would definitely like to participate again.

前回、ハワイに行った時に別の会社のドルフィンのツアーに参加したのですが,船酔いで,シュノーケリングは断念したため、今回こそはどうしてもドルフィンと泳ぎたいととても楽しみにしていました。しかし、ハリケーンの影響か、一日目は高い確率で会えるはずのドルフィンに会えませんでした。
しかし、泳げない上に泳ぎ始めてすぐに足をつった主人を日本語ガイドさんが、浮輪,で誘導して、ウミガメのところまで案内してくれたので、主人はドルフィンには会えなくても、十分楽しめようです。
私はドルフィンに会えなかった場合の半額チケットで、翌日もトライしました。
念願のドルフィンの近くで泳げたこと、たくさんの魚達、たくさんのウミガメを間近で見れたこと、本当に感激しました。
しかし、それ以上に、朝のモーニングコール、船の上でのクルーの皆さんのフラダンスやパフォーマンス、多くの人にドルフィンに会ってもらいたいというクルーの皆さん想いに触れて、感動しました。
色々な会社さんのドルフィンツアーがありますが、ドルフィンアンドユー様をおすすめします。私も、是非、また参加したいです。

I was more moved by the turtles than the dolphins. イルカよりカメに感動

Reviewed by: kimi

There was a large group of dolphins, but they were far below my feet, so I almost missed them. I wish I could have gotten a little closer. Since they are wild, I can't complain.
After the dolphins, we went to the turtle point, and that was really great. It was my first time seeing so many turtles, including baby turtles, up close. Stand-up paddleboarding and the trampoline were also a lot of fun. The BBQ hamburgers were delicious because they cooked them right there on the spot. I also appreciated that they were accommodating with various requests like gluten-free and no cheese.

イルカの大群はいましたが、足元のずっと下の方だったので、見落としそうでした。もう少し近くまで寄れたらよかったのですが。野生なので、文句は言えないですよね。
イルカの次にカメのポイントに行き、そこがとってもよかったです。あんなにそばでたくさんのカメ、子亀?を見るのは初めてでした。またスタンダップパドルボートやトランポリンなど、とっても楽しかったです。BBQハンバーガーは、その場で焼いてくれてるのでとてもおいしかったです。グルテンフリーやチーズなしなどいろいろな希望を聞いてくれるのもありがたいですね。

It was fun! 楽しかったです!

Reviewed by: amie

The staff was kind and had great energy, making it a really fun tour. Despite a hurricane approaching, we managed to avoid it and set off in pleasant weather! We dove into the sea at two points to swim with dolphins, and luckily, we saw honu (sea turtles) at both spots. They made sure to check if everyone had seen the dolphins, and the explanations in both English and Japanese were reassuring. The slide after swimming with the dolphins was also fun and I highly recommend it! Due to the wind, we couldn't play on the trampoline, which I was looking forward to, but I'll save that for next time!

Once you get into the sea, you inevitably feel cold from the wind while on the boat, so I recommend bringing a towel or a hoodie to wear!

I didn't receive the eco-bag that was mentioned during the booking, but this trip was a highlight for me, so I'm satisfied! I will definitely participate again next time!

スタッフの方も親切で、ノリも良くてすごく楽しいツアーになりました。ハリケーンが来ている中、なんとか逸れてくれて、心地いい天気の中出発!イルカと泳ぐポイント2箇所で海へダイブ、ラッキーだったのかどちらのポイントでもホヌも見れました。 きちんと参加者全員がイルカを見れたかも聞いてくれるし、英語と日本語で丁寧に説明してくれるのな安心です。イルカと泳いだ後の、スライダーも楽しくてオススメです!風の影響で、楽しみにしていたトランポリンでは遊べませんでしたが、これは次回の楽しみに取っておきます笑◡̈

一度海に入った後は、どうしても船上で風を浴びるので、寒く感じます。タオルやパーカーなど羽織れるものを持っていくことをオススメします!

申し込み時に書いてあったエコバッグは頂けませんでしたが…
今回の旅でのハイライトとなりましたので、満足です!次回も是非参加します♪

Luxury Ko Olina Sunset Cruise with Snorkeling, Dinner Buffet & Premium Cocktails - Ocean Joy Cruises

Ocean Joy Snorkel & Dinner Cruise Review

Reviewed by: Unhappy customer

We were pretty disappointed with this trip. Just not as organized as we had hoped. We've been on many different snorkel trips over the years and this is one of the most unorganized we've attended. Competing boats seem to pass out gear and explain rules and safety regulations on the way to the destination. Then, once anchored, we can get in the water. This boat waits until we are on anchor, then starts the slow unorganized process of handing out gear. Takes way too long!

Food was decent, but mixed drinks were not! The captain, although tried to be funny, was not for the most part. We tried to have a conversation with him and generally got one word answers. So, he really wasn't interested in talking with us. When we were on anchor, he seemed to be more interested in flying his own personal drone around the boat.

The crew was nice and helpful, the captain, not so much! The best part of the trip was the photographer. Really a terrific individual, very personal with the guest and generally took an interest in the guest.

Overall, I wouldn't use this boat again.

Aloha and thank you so much for taking the time to write about your experience on the Kai 'Oli'Oli. We are sorry your experience wasn't the best. Because of your feedback, we have thoroughly retrained the crew on how to efficiently conduct our snorkel preparation and briefings and have privately counseled the Captain about his disinterest towards you and your family. At our next crew meeting, we have food and beverage training scheduled in addition to our usual safety training. We strive to always have complete customer satisfaction and we know that at times we may fall short, so we truly appreciate your input. When you visit O'ahu again, please call us directly and we would like to host you on our boat and we will be proud to show you a better tour as a result of your review.

I was able to see dolphins from the boat multiple times, but it was difficult to see them swimming underwater. However, on my third try, I finally got to meet a dolphin I had been hoping to see. They swam beneath us and, although at a distance, they performed spinning jumps, and I even got to see a baby dolphin. It was amazing. I want to participate again.

船の上からイルカを何度も見ることはできていましたが、水中で泳いでいる姿を見ることはなかなかできませんでしたが、3回目のトライで念願のイルカに逢えました。

I'm disappointed. がっかりです

Reviewed by: komari

I apologize for the long message.
I participated with my three children early in the morning on July 19, but unfortunately, we didn't get to see any dolphins. To make matters worse, it seemed that the day was affected by a typhoon, and the waves were quite rough, making for a really tough tour.
As the main event of our Hawaii trip, I wanted my sons, who love swimming, to swim with dolphins. After reading many reviews, I chose this tour, which allows participation from age two, and I was really looking forward to it. I woke up early and took all three kids with me. I wanted to create good memories, so I purchased a USB and an SD card in advance as recommended.
However, after boarding the boat and being tossed around in the rough waves for over an hour while searching for dolphins, even our family, who usually doesn't get seasick, started to feel unwell, along with other participants.
We changed our plans and started with free snorkeling time, but as soon as the boat finally stopped, the nausea peaked... Many people felt sick and were resting on the boat.
Even though we felt unwell, we decided to jump into the sea, but the wave conditions were quite severe, making it difficult even for adults to snorkel. It was a challenging task for my husband and me to care for our three children while swimming, and our four-year-old and two-year-old sons were crying. There were only a few crew members in the water to support us, and there were no floatation devices for the kids. Of course, it wasn't a situation where anyone could play on the trampoline or paddleboard; it seemed like no one was having fun. We returned to the boat early, but the seasickness didn't go away, and eventually, our second son got sick. The only one who enjoyed the slide was our eight-year-old son.
Despite purchasing the SD card and USB in advance, I didn't even realize that underwater photos were being taken, as we spent so little time in the water. I regret buying them since we didn't get to see any dolphins. (Moreover, for some reason, I can't open the photos on the USB after returning home.)
Even after returning to the boat, the seasickness lingered, and I felt unwell, not to mention we hardly saw any dolphins or turtles, so I didn't even feel like eating a cheeseburger. There were a few others who were also taking out food. On the way back, there was a hula dance performance, but the mood inside the boat had dropped significantly, and the crew's high spirits felt out of place.
I heard that other tour companies also didn't encounter any dolphins that day, and I understand that it's nature, so it's not 100% guaranteed. However, most of the time was spent traveling, and the sea conditions were terrible, leaving us with hardly any time in the water. Overall, I was left with dissatisfaction regarding the photos and videos. We received a voucher for half-price participation next time, but it's not easy for our family to come to Hawaii again, and I can't justify the cost of over 80,000 yen for that experience.
If participation is allowed from age two, I wish they would consider more accommodations for children. We have participated in various activities as a family before, but this was the most expensive tour with the lowest satisfaction. While our family trip to Hawaii was enjoyable, thinking back on this day makes me sad.

長文になります、すみません。
7/19早朝から子供3人を連れて参加しましたが、残念ながらイルカには会えませんでした。それどころか、その日は台風の影響らしく波がかなりうねっていて本当に辛いツアーになりました。
今回のハワイ旅行のメインとして、泳ぐのが大好きな息子達にイルカと一緒に泳がせてあげたいと思い、口コミもたくさん読んで2歳から参加できるこのツアーを選びものすごく楽しみに、がんばって早起きをして3人連れて行きました。いい思い出を残したいと思い、USBもSDカードもすすめられるがまま事前に購入しました。
しかし、船に乗って荒々しい波に延々一時間以上?揺られながらイルカを探しまわるが現れず、その時点で船酔いしない我が家も、他の参加者も具合が悪そうに…⤵
予定を変更して、先にフリーシュノーケルタイムと、やっと停舶したと同時に気持ち悪さがピークに。。。何人もの方が気持ちが悪くなって船で休んでいました。
我が家も気持ち悪いながらも
せっかくだからと思いきって海に飛び込みましたが、波のうねりがかなりひどく、大人でもシュノーケルが難しい状況なうえに、夫婦で3人の子供達をケアしながら泳ぐのは至 難の技で、4歳と2歳の息子は号泣。それでも海に入ってるクルーはわずかだし、子供へのサポートや浮き具なども特になし。もちろんトランポリンやパドルボートなどで遊べるような状況ではなく、誰も遊んでいなかったようです。早々に船に戻るも船酔いが治らず、とうとう次男は戻してしまいました。唯一8才の息子は滑り台は楽しんでいましたが。
事前にSDカード&USBを購入したのにも関わらず、肝心な水中での写真なんて撮られている自覚もありません、そもそも海に入ってる時間がわずかだったので。イルカに会えないなら買わなければ良かったと思っています。(しかも、帰国してからなぜかUSBの写真が開けない)
船に戻っても船酔いが治らず、気持ちは悪いわイルカにも亀にもろくに会えないわで、チーズバーガーなんてましてや食べる気になりませんでした。同じようにテイクアウトしてる人も、何人かいました。帰りもフラダンスの披露などありましたが、もう船内のテンションは落ちまくり、クルー達の高いテンションは空回り、といった感じでした。
その日は他のツアー会社もどこもイルカに遭遇できなかったとのことで、自然のものなので、100%ではないのは承知済みですが、ほとんどが移動で終わり、さらに海のコンディションは最悪で水中にはほとんど入れず、写真や動画撮影に対しても、全てにおいて不満だけが残りました。次回半額で参加できるバウチャーを、いただきましまが、我が家にとってそんなに簡単にハワイに来られる訳でもありませんし、そもそもあの内容に対しての5人で80000円以上の負担は納得がいきません。
2歳から参加OKとしているなら、もっと子供への配慮を考えてほしいものです。今まで様々なアクティビティに、家族で参加してきましたが、今までで一番高額で 満足度は一番低いツアーでした。今回の家族でのハワイ旅行は楽しかったですが、この日のことを思い出すと悲しくなります。

I'm glad I participated in Dolphin & You. ドルフィン&ユーさんに参加して良かったです

Reviewed by: Kaoru & Nobu

I participated with my elderly husband's parents. My mother is a good swimmer, but she was worried because of her mobility issues. However, with the support of our guide, Saki, she was able to enjoy the tour until the end.

We were very lucky to encounter dolphins right after we set sail. However, I was surprised that we had to dive from the boat to swim with the dolphins. Because of this, my mother was too scared to enter the water, but we were still able to see the dolphins from the boat. They were very cute, jumping and spinning around. When my husband and I jumped in at Saki's signal, we were able to see a large group of ten dolphins right below us. We were very excited to see the dolphins up close.

I have participated in various dolphin tours overseas, but this was the first time I saw wild dolphins swimming in the ocean, so it was a great experience. We also got to see many turtles.

With Saki's help, my parents were able to get close to see the turtles as well.

I am truly grateful to Saki and all the staff at Dolphin & You for their kindness. It really became a wonderful memory. Thank you very much. Next time, I would like to participate with my husband.

I believe the photo we took at the end of the tour, where everyone is smiling, shows how enjoyable this tour was. I hope this happiness comes across in the photo I’m posting.

Dolphin & You is the best!

高齢の主人の両親と参加しました。
母は泳ぎが得意ですが足が不自由ということで心配していましたがガイドのサキさんのサポートもあり最後までツアーを楽しむことが出来ました。

お目当てのイルカさんには出港後すぐに遭遇出来非常にラッキーでした。
しかしイルカと泳ぐのに船からダイブということには私も驚きました。
その為、母は怖がってしまい海に入ることは出来ませんでしたが、
船上からもイルカが確認出来ました。ジャンプしたり回転したりとても可愛いかったです。
私達夫婦はサキさんの合図で飛び込んだ所、真下で10匹の大軍を見ることが出来ました。
間近でみるイルカにはとても興奮しました、

今まで海外でイルカに関する色々なツアーに参加しましたが
野生のイルカが海の中で泳ぐ姿をみたのは初めてでしたので、良い経験が出来ました。
またたくさんの亀も見ることが出来ました。

亀は両親もサキさんの助けを借りて近くまで見に行くことが出来ました。

サキさんはじめドルフィン&ユーのスタッフ皆さんにはとてもよくしていただき本当に感謝です。本当にとてもいい思い出になりました。ありがとうございました。
次回は夫婦で参加したいと思います。

ツアーの最後で撮った写真が皆笑顔でこのツアーの楽しさがわかると思います。
このハッピーさが伝わるといいなと思い写真投稿します。

ドルフィン&ユー 最高です

I love Hawaii. HAWAII 大好き

Reviewed by: HAWAII 大好き

I was really looking forward to swimming with dolphins this time. I woke up at 5 AM, rubbing my sleepy eyes, and had breakfast before heading out for this tour.

Even for someone with diving experience like me, encountering such a large group of dolphins was truly moving.

They were moving in a large group just below the surface. Just when you think they've gone, they come back again.

It was truly a generous experience.

It felt as if they were inviting us.

They showed no signs of fear towards us.

During the cruise, the cheerful staff kept the atmosphere lively with Hawaiian dances and conversations, making it absolutely the best experience.

今回は、イルカと一緒に泳ぐことができるということで、

楽しみにしていました。朝5時に起き眠い目をこすりながら

ブレックファーストしこのツアーに臨みました。

ダイビングの経験がある私にとっても、これほどのイルカの大群に逢えるとは・・・・。

まさに感動ものでした。

水面、割と深くを大群で移動しているんですね。行ったかと思うとまた、戻ってくるんですね

まさに、大サービスです。

まるで、我々を誘っているかのように。

我々をを怖がる様子もなく。

クルーズ中は陽気なスタッフのハワイアンダンスとハワイアントークで盛り上がり

まさに最高でした。

The pictures taken from our seats on the boat mostly showed the boat's walls and the background scenery was lacking. Other groups had photos of themselves swimming in the ocean, but we didn't have any of those, which was really disappointing when we got back. Given that they said they wanted to take many photos of those who purchased the USB, I thought the number and quality of the photos were quite lacking. Moreover, the USB was expensive.

Even while swimming, we were told not to follow the cameraman, even though we were just swimming straight. It made me feel really uncomfortable, even though that wasn't our intention. When we were sitting on the edge of the boat, they were attentive to us, but they weren't paying attention to other groups of girls. They also guided us to indoor seats without mentioning that we could fit more people on the deck (those seats didn't allow us to see the surrounding scenery and were hot, making it hard to feel like we were on a cruise). I wish they had been a bit more considerate of everyone. Even though the Japanese guides might have been trying to be nice by saying things like "The sea is beautiful!" or "You seem a bit down," from our perspective, it felt a bit insensitive and lacking in consideration.

However, the crew that joined us locally was cheerful and considerate, which made it a lot of fun. The dolphins swam right next to us and below us, which was magical. We could hear their calls, and it was moving.

So, I think there are people who will enjoy this tour and those who won't. Especially since it was our honeymoon. We didn't have any photos underwater that we were looking forward to as mementos, nor any fun photos taken from the deck. Haha. I also felt that the guide's attitude was not very favorable, and while we did get to swim with the dolphins, I think I will use another tour next time.

他のイルカツアーに参加した事もありますが、このツアーは価格も高いし、内容も含めて他のもっと価格を抑えたツアーを選べばよかったと思いました。
新婚旅行の記念にusbを買ったけど、私たちを撮ってくれた写真は本当に少なく、船の座った席で撮った写真はバックの景色も船の壁ばかりで、他のグループは海で泳いでる写真もあったのに、私たちのものはなく帰ってきてみて、スゴくがっかりしました。
usb購入した人を多く撮りたいと言っていただけに、あまりにもな写真の数と内容だなと思いました。しかも、usb高い。
泳いでるときも、まっすぐ泳いでいただけなのにカメラマンの人についてこないでと言われて、そのつもりもないのにすごく気分が悪かった。
船の縁に座っていたときも私たちには注意していたのに、他の女の子のグループには注意していなかったり、もっとつめれば座れるデッキの席も何も言わず屋内の席に誘導したり(その席は周りの景色も見えないし暑く、クルーズしてる気分には到底なれない)、もう少し全員に配慮してくれればいいのになと思いました。また、屋内の席にいるのに海が綺麗だよーとか元気ないねーとか日本語ガイドさん達も気を利かせていっていたのかもしれないけど、
こっちの立場からすれば、ちょっと無神経で言葉にも配慮がないのかなと感じてしまいました。
しかし、現地合流のクルーは陽気で気を使ってくれたりと、とても楽しかったです。
イルカもすぐ横や下を泳いでいて幻想的。鳴き声も聞こえて感動しました。

なので、このツアーに合う人と合わない人がいると思います。
新婚旅行だったので尚更。記念に楽しみにしていた海の中での写真も無く、デッキから撮った楽しそうな写真もなく。笑
何となくガイドさんの態度も好感が持てず、イルカと泳げたからまあいっかというくらいで、
次回は他のツアーを利用すると思います。

I was very impressed by the dolphins!! イルカに大感激しました!!

I had almost no experience with snorkeling, but I wanted to see dolphins up close, so I participated alone. Despite my age and the fact that I usually only do desk work, I was a bit worried about my physical fitness, but being optimistic by nature, I joined in on a whim, and it was really great. I felt so moved!! It became the best memory of my trip to Hawaii. I also think that being able to speak Japanese helped me participate with peace of mind. The burger I had on the boat was delicious, and I truly had a wonderful time.

シュノーケリングの経験もほとんど皆無だったけど、イルカを真近に見たくて一人で参加しました。高年齢もさることながら日頃デスクワークしかしていないので 体力的な心配もありましたが楽天的な性格なので、ノリで参加しましたが凄く良かったです。すごい感動を覚えました!!ハワイ旅行の中で一番の思い出になりました。日本語が話せた事も 安心して参加できた事だと
思いました。船上で食べたバーガーも美味しかった、本当に楽しいひと時を過ごせました。

I participated with ten colleagues. While I slightly regretted not choosing the ranch tour instead of the dolphin cruise, it turned out to be the right choice.

Waking up early was tough, but I took motion sickness medication and wore a seasickness wristband (which I bought on the bus for $20, thinking it would be worth it if I could use it multiple times), and I felt great. The weather was nice, and we encountered dolphins early on. Although they sometimes swim away, they came quite close, allowing us to see them well. After that, we were able to swim near a large turtle, which was an amazing experience.

Before swimming, we sang a song to pray for safety and threw flowers together. The crew's singing and Hawaiian dance were also great, and the hamburgers and chips we had on the boat were delicious. I found the chips at the airport on the way back and bought some as souvenirs.

On the last day, I arranged to meet with one of the crew members, Mai, to experience yoga in the park. I definitely want to go back to Hawaii to see the dolphins again. I highly recommend it!

 仕事仲間10人で参加しました。牧場ツアーとドルフィンクルーズのどちらかを選ぶ時に牧場にすれば良かったかなと少々、後悔しながらの参加でしたが、こちらにして正解でした。
 朝早いのは辛かったのですが、酔い止め薬も飲み、船酔いのリストバンド(20ドル、何回でも使えるなら良いかと思ってバスで購入)も良かったのか体調もばっちりで、お天気も良く、早い段階でイルカに遭遇でき、逃げてしまう事もあるそうですが、近寄ってくるぐらい近くまできて、しっかり見ることができました。その後、大きな亀さんとも蹴ってしまいそうなぐらい近くで泳ぐ事もでき、本当に良い体験ができました。
 泳ぐ前に無事を祈る歌を歌ってお花をみんなで投げたり、クルーの方の歌やハワイアンダンスも良かったし、船の上で食べたハンバーガーもチップスも美味しくて、チップスは帰りに空港で見つけて、お土産に買って帰りました。
 クルーの一人のmaiさんとは、最終日にヨガの待ち合わせをして、公園でヨガも体験する事ができました。
 また、ハワイに行ったら、イルカに会いに行きたいと思います。本当にお薦めです。

3-Hour West Coast Snorkel Cruise & Marine Life Safari by Dolphin Excursions

Turtles are still slow in the water, works for this activity..

Reviewed by: -PAUL-

First time doing this. Thoroughly enjoyed it between the dolphins and turtle. I found a turtle by my lonesome, shared with everyone, but I guess there was more action somewhere else. I swam with the turtle as it slowly rose up to surface to get a breathe of air that took no more than one second. Then it went on its way. I don't have pictures of that experience to share, but I did have a go pro recording the whole time. So I have that to take with me the rest of my life.
Needs to said, there is a catch. If you want more interaction with mammal sea life, there is another activity that gets your first hand, up close and personal. However you are in a control environment. Whereas this activity is in the ocean; wildlife, so more than dolphins and turtles to experience(depending on the time of year too).

If I am allowed to edit this post, and also allow to post a hyperlink to a YouTube video, I will post that turtle swim.

  • Right before we jumped in the water

  • Vast mountain landscape is something you can never get bored looking at

  • After we docked, looking east from the harbor.

  • Ditto

We participated in this tour because we really wanted to see wild dolphins on our honeymoon.

The meeting time was at 5:55 AM, but around 5:20 AM, a Japanese female staff member called our hotel room for a morning call. During that call, she informed us that we needed to wear swimsuits and that if we wanted to rent a wetsuit, it would cost $5 per person, so we needed to have cash on hand.

The participants on the bus were mostly Japanese, with about 20 people in total. Inside the bus, the Japanese staff explained the precautions and how to use the snorkel, which made us feel at ease. They also recommended that those who are prone to motion sickness take medication on the bus. Motion sickness wristbands were available for sale on the bus for $20, but I didn’t buy one. By the way, I got quite seasick during the parasailing the day before, but I didn’t feel sick at all during this dolphin tour.

Finally, we boarded the boat and cruised to the point where the dolphins were located. There were four staff members on board, and they were all very enthusiastic, chatting with us in English, which created a fun atmosphere throughout. Then we finally spotted the dolphins and dove into the sea with our snorkels! We swam close to the dolphins, and there were so many swimming just below me!! Both my husband and I were thrilled to see them up close. Please make sure to bring an underwater camera. I highly recommend participating in this tour.

ハネムーンで、野生のイルカをどうしても見たくて主人と二人で参加しました。

朝5時55分の集合でしたが、5時20分頃に、ホテルの部屋まで日本人の女性のスタッフの方からモーニングコールがありました。その際に水着着用のことと、水中は寒い為、ウエットスーツをレンタルする場合には、一人$5必要な為、現金が必要な旨連絡がありました。

到着したバスの参加者はほぼ日本人で、20名くらいがいたと思います。
バスの中で、日本人スタッフの方から注意事項やシュノーケルの使い方など説明があり安心できました。また酔いやすい方は、バスの中で薬を飲むことをお勧めします。バスでは酔い止めのリストバンドも売られていましたが、$20のため、私は買いませんでした。ちなみに前日参加したパラセイリングではかなり酔ってしまったのですが、このイルカツアーは全く酔わなかったです。

いよいよ船に乗り、イルカがいるポイントまでクルーズをします。スタッフの方4名いたのですが、皆さんテンションが高く英語で色々と話しかけてくれる為、終始楽しい雰囲気でした。そしていよいよイルカを発見し、シュノーケルをつけて海にダイブします!そしてイルカの近くまでみんなで泳いでいきました。するとそこにはたくさんのイルカたちが私のすぐ下を泳いでいました!!
こんなに間近で見ることができ、主人も私も感激しています。水中カメラは絶対に持参してください。
ぜひ参加をお勧めします。

I had a great time! 楽しめた!

Reviewed by: Big Island 05

One of the activities I absolutely wanted to experience on my trip to Hawaii was dolphin swimming. Since I chose the early morning plan, the meeting time was before 6 AM! I booked it for the latter part of the trip when the effects of jet lag were less, and going to bed early the night before seemed to pay off, as my husband and I, who are usually not morning people, managed to wake up properly. (Maybe we woke up because we were so excited?)

A large bus came to pick us up, and despite the early hour, the staff greeted us cheerfully. After the English explanation on the bus, they kindly provided a detailed explanation in Japanese, which was reassuring.

There were about 20 people that day, roughly half of the maximum of 40. Upon arriving at the port, we were finally ready to set sail! Unfortunately, it seemed there were no dolphins at the first point we headed to, so we had to move to a different location. As a result, the travel time by boat was longer than usual, which meant our snorkeling time was shorter.

When we arrived at the next point, we finally dove into the sea! After swimming for a while, when we turned to the staff's signal… there were so many dolphins!! We could clearly see them swimming right beneath us. We also saw many dolphins during our second dive.

Although the snorkeling time was indeed a bit shorter, we were able to enjoy seeing fish and sea turtles. The boat ride took longer, but it seemed that no one got seasick, and during the travel time, the staff shared various stories and even performed hula, which kept us entertained throughout the tour.

On the way back, I think all the participants were fast asleep! It was just what we needed to recharge a bit.

ハワイ旅行で絶対に体験したいアクティビティのひとつがドルフィンスイムでした。
朝イチのプランを選択したため、集合時間は6時前!時差ボケの影響が少ない旅の後半の日程に予約して、前日早めに寝たのが功を奏したのか、朝は比較的弱い夫婦ですがきちんと起きることができました。(楽しみだったから否応なしに目が覚めたのかも?)
大きなバスのお迎えが来て、早朝にもかかわらずスタッフの方も明るく出迎えていただきました。バスの中で英語での説明が終わった後日本語でも丁寧に説明してくださり、安心でした。
この日は20人ほどで、MAX40人の約半分。
港に到着し、いよいよ出港!最初に向かったポイントでは残念ながらイルカがいなかったようで、急遽違うポイントへ移動することに。そのため普段よりもボートでの移動時間が長くなり、その分シュノーケルの時間が短くなってしまいますと説明がありました。
次のポイントに到着し、ようやく海へダイブ!しばらく泳いでスタッフの方の合図でそちらのほうを向くと…たくさんのイルカが!!自分たちの下を横切っていくのがばっちり見えました。
2回目のダイブでも、たくさんのイルカが見れました。
その後のシュノーケル時間はやはり少し短かったようですが、魚やウミガメも見れて楽しめました。
ボートでの移動時間は長くなりましたが、船酔いするような人はいなかったようですし、移動の間もいろいろなお話をしてくださったり、フラを披露していただいたりと、ツアー中ずっと飽きずに楽しむことができてよかったです。
帰りのバスはたぶん参加者全員爆睡!ちょうど少し疲れもとることができよかったです。

I participated in early January. It was a cold time with rough waves, so I was worried about seasickness and the cold, but I’m really glad I referred to the reviews. I wore a long-sleeve hoodie and took motion sickness medication the day before.

Most of the women who participated looked very uncomfortable due to seasickness. It seems essential to take motion sickness medication. I was able to see dolphins and sea turtles! I was also lucky enough to witness a whale jump, which is unique to this season, and the cruise in nature was very healing. The hamburger was delicious too! There was also a hula show by the crew, making it a very satisfying activity!

1月上旬に参加しました。寒く波も荒い時期でしたので、船酔いと寒さが心配でしたが、口コミを参考にして本当によかったです。長袖パーカーと酔い止めを前日から服用して参加しました。
参加した女性のほとんどが、船酔いでとても辛そうでした。酔い止めは必ず服用した方が良さそうです。イルカ、海亀をみることが出来ました!この時期ならではクジラのジャンプも運よく見れて、大自然の中のクルーズ癒されました。ハンバーガーも美味しかったです!クルーの方のフラショーもあり、大満足なアクティビティーでした!

I was very satisfied to see both. The shaking was less than I expected, and it felt nice. My two- and four-year-old daughters were also excited. All the guides spoke English. Breakfast included muffins, and lunch consisted of sandwiches. The air conditioning on the shuttle bus from the hotel was strong, so it's a good idea to sunbathe on the boat to dry off while returning in your swimsuit. By the way, I requested a date change over the phone the day before due to our circumstances, and they kindly agreed.

両方見られて大満足でした。思ったほど揺れは少なく気持ち良かったです。二歳四歳の娘達もはしゃいでいました。ガイドはみな英語でした。朝ごはんはマフィンなど、ランチはサンドイッチなどでした。ホテルからの送迎バス内が冷房強く、水着のまま帰るので船上で日光浴して乾かしておくと◎。ちなみに、前日にこちらの都合で電話で日にち変更をお願いしましたが、快諾していただけました。

3-Hour West Coast Snorkel Cruise & Marine Life Safari by Dolphin Excursions

Amazing experience!

Reviewed by: Robert P.

We did the early excursion and were happy we did as our group only had 9 people and I felt we were able to see more activity. We rented wet suits since the water was just a bit cooler than our liking, and they worked great. The views on the way to the snorkeling spot are breathtaking as you see the sunrise behind a mountain range. We saw several whales and could hear their chatter in the water, an indescribable experience. We snorkeled with tropical fish, sea turtles, and dolphins. Then, we enjoyed a delicious lunch. Only wish we had more time.

The crew and shuttle driver were great! They even returned our beach towels, which we forgot at Spinner's. This excursion definitely under promised and over delivered.

We paid $50-$60 for the professional photographs, which was well worth it to us as it was impossible to capture everything. Can't wait to see them in a couple weeks!

Encounter with Dolphins イルカとの出逢い

Reviewed by: Milky

This was my first trip to Hawaii. While searching for activities that I could enjoy with my 6th-grade daughter, I came across this tour. When I told my daughter about it, she immediately responded, "I want to go!" It's not every day you get a chance to meet wild dolphins.

I had some hesitation, wondering if I could wake up at 5 AM with the jet lag, if I would be okay since I'm not a strong swimmer, and if I might get seasick. I was filled with more anxiety than excitement. After much deliberation, I decided to go for it and signed up.

On the day of the tour, I was so excited that I woke up earlier than planned. I took my motion sickness medication and boarded the boat. After a few minutes, I heard the staff say that dolphins were nearby, and one by one, we jumped into the sea.

Honestly, it was a bit scary at first. I struggled to put my face in the water. I desperately searched for dolphins. Then, when I looked down… there they were right below me!! A pod of dolphins! Before I knew it, I was diving down and taking pictures, completely captivated. It was an emotional experience. My daughter seemed to see them well too. Although I joined the tour for her sake, I might have enjoyed it even more (laughs). After that, we also got to see a honu (sea turtle). It was amazing to see it swimming so close!

It was a dreamlike experience that went by in an instant. The staff were friendly, and I enjoyed chatting with them. I've been to various places, but this became my best memory in Hawaii. If I have the chance to go to Hawaii again, I would definitely like to participate in this tour again.

As many have mentioned, I think it's a good idea for those who are worried to take motion sickness medication. Thank you very much.

初めてのハワイ旅行。小学6年生の娘と楽しめるアクティビティはないかと色々探していたところ、このツアーが目にとまりました。娘に話した所、「行きたい!」と即答。野生のイルカに会えるツアーなんてなかなかありません。
私も行きたいなと思いながらも迷いがありました。時差ボケもあるのに朝5時に起きられるのか。あまり泳ぎが得意ではないのに大丈夫か。船酔いするんじゃないか。期待以上に不安もイッパイ。迷いに迷って思いきって申し込みました。
当日は楽しみで予定より早く起きてしまいました。酔いどめもしっかり飲んで船に乗り込むこと数十分。
イルカがいるというスタッフの方の声を聞いて、次々と海に飛び込みます。
正直ちょっと怖かった。最初はなかなか顔もつけられなくて。必死でイルカを探します。そして、ふと下をみると…真下にいました!!イルカの群れが!気がつくと夢中で潜って写真をとっていました。感動でした。娘もしっかり見れたようです。娘のために参加したツアーでしたが、私のほうが楽しんでいたかも(笑)。そのあとホヌもみることができました。本当にすぐそばで泳いでいてびっくり!!
あっという間の夢のような時間でした。
スタッフの方もフレンドリーで色々お話できて楽しかったです。
色々な所に行きましたが、ハワイでの一番の思い出になりました。
またハワイに行く機会があったらぜひ参加したいです。
みなさんかいてありますが、心配な方は酔い止めを飲んだほうがいいと思います。
ありがとうございました。
