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

Great Experience!

Reviewed by: Pam

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!

I didn't see any dolphins, but イルカは見られなかったが

Reviewed by: Tommy

I wasn't able to see dolphins, but I did get to see whales and turtles. Since they are wild animals, there's no guarantee you'll see them, so I actually feel grateful for the experience of seeing the less common animals. Oh, but maybe that's because I was able to see dolphins twice in the past, in Hawaii and Guam.

イルカを観る事ができませんでしたが、クジラや亀を観る事ができました。
野生動物である限り絶対はないので、イルカを見られないという事も
あるんだなあと、逆に確率の少ない方の経験ができて良かったという感想です。
あ、でも、それは、私は過去にハワイとグアムで2回、イルカを観る事が
できたからかも知れません。

野生のイルカウォッチング&ウミガメシュノーケリングクルーズ たっぷり3時間のシュノーケルで満喫 <ランチ&アルコール2杯付き/送迎付きor現地集合>

Cheerful cruising! 陽気なクルージング!

Reviewed by: ぴかちゃん

We participated with two friends and two 3-year-olds, making a total of six people.

It was a fun cruise accompanied by cheerful music. Depending on the day, it might be a good idea for those who are prone to motion sickness to take some medication beforehand. We were able to see many dolphins, and both adults and children were very excited.

Although it was my first time participating in dolphin watching and snorkeling, my friends, who have been multiple times, said it was a relatively relaxed tour and snorkeling experience. My 3-year-old daughter seemed to enjoy floating while being held and was happily watching the underwater world with the snorkeling mask we brought.

When we participated, it seemed there were no Japanese speakers, but we were treated kindly, which made us feel at ease.

友人夫婦と3歳児2人、合わせて6人で参加しました。

陽気な音楽ともに楽しいクルージングでした。
日によるかもしれませんが、乗り物酔いに弱い方は酔い止めを飲んで参加した方が良いかもしれません。
イルカも沢山見ることが出来き、大人も子供達も大興奮でした。

投稿者はドルフィンウォッチングやシュノーケリングは初参加でしたが、複数回経験のある友人夫婦は比較的のんびりとしたツアーやシュノーケリングだと言っていました。
3歳の娘も抱えられながら気持ちよさそうに浮いたり、持参した水中箱メガネで楽しそうに海中を眺めていました。

私達が参加した時は日本語を話せる方はみえなかったようですが、親切に接して頂けたので安心しました。

West Oahu Dolphin Watch & Reef Snorkel Tour with Ocean Activities - Iruka Hawaii

Getting in the water with wild dolphins!

Reviewed by: L.S. Yamanaka

[Reviewed by HawaiiActivities.com Staff]

My morning with Iruka Hawaii's dolphin swim and snorkel was nothing short of absolutely perfect. From start to finish, every moment on the water was just fantastically fun!

The boat was a pleasantly spacious and comfortable, and the crew was incredibly helpful and impressively knowledgeable about dolphins. Their expertise added a whole new layer of appreciation to the experience~

Snorkeling twice was a highlight, and I spotted a bunch of fish and turtles, but the real showstopper was seeing bottlenose dolphins gliding beneath us. It was definitely something I will never forget :)

We also got great views of Hawaiian spinner dolphins from the boat, and I can't describe just how adorable it is when you see them jumping and spinning out of the water. Definitely glad I had my phone camera ready!

Lunch was simple yet delicious, hitting the spot perfectly, and the availability of snacks was a great way to stay fueled for the adventure.

And a massive shoutout for the provided transportation from Waikiki to Waianae since it is almost an hour drive, and I wouldn't have been able to get out there any other way.

Can't wait to go again!!!

The snorkeling time was relatively long, and I was able to see sea turtles up close, which was very enjoyable. However, it was a bit cold in the evening. The sunset from the cruise was also very beautiful, making it a wonderful memory. The staff took photos for us, and since there is a sale at the end, I think it's a good idea to bring a little cash or a credit card if you want to purchase them.

A lifetime of memories 一生の思い出

Reviewed by: まっつぁん

I was worried about seasickness since we would be on the boat for nearly three hours, but after taking motion sickness medication, I had no problems. There were some people who were vomiting, so I recommend taking motion sickness medication.

As soon as we set sail, we encountered dolphins and were able to see them jumping and spinning up close. The sights during snorkeling were breathtakingly beautiful. I will never forget it. There were also plenty of activities like stand-up paddleboarding, canoeing, and a slide attached to the boat, which my 6-year-old son enjoyed thoroughly.

3時間近く乗船するとのことで、とにかく船酔いが心配でしたが、酔い止めを服用したところ問題ありませんでした。嘔吐している方もいましたので、酔い止めをおすすめします。


出向してすぐにイルカに遭遇し、ジャンプしたりスピンしたりしているイルカを間近で見ることができました。、
その後のシュノーケリングで見た光景は、息を飲む美しさでした。一生忘れられません。サップやカヌー、船に取り付けた滑り台などのアクティビティも豊富で、息子は6歳でしたが充分楽しむことができました。

Encountered not only dolphins and turtles but also whales!! イルカ、カメだけでなくクジラにも遭遇!!

Reviewed by: カルチョ

We visited Hawaii for our honeymoon. I wanted to see dolphins in the dream destination of Hawaii, so I joined this tour. Although it was an early start, we were lucky enough to encounter not only dolphins but also whales on this tour. I was also thrilled to see sea turtles. The staff were very kind, and there were Japanese-speaking staff members, which made me feel at ease. During snorkeling, I was able to relax and see colorful fish in the beautiful sea. The slide from the boat was also fun. On the way back, we got to see a hula dance, which became a wonderful memory. For those worried about seasickness, I recommend taking motion sickness medication in advance. If you forget, you can also purchase a motion sickness band that is said to be effective on the bus ride there.

早起きでしたが参加したこのツアーではイルカだけでなく運良くクジラにも出会えることができました。また、ホヌも見れることができとても興奮しました。スタッフの方々もとても親切で日本語対応スタッフもいるので安心して参加できました。シュノーケルでは綺麗な海でゆったりと色鮮やかな魚たちも見ることができました。また、船からの滑り台も楽しかったです。帰りの船上ではフラダンスも見ることができ最高の思い出になりました。船酔いが心配な方はあらかじめ酔い止めを飲んでいくことをお勧めします。忘れた場合は、行きのバスの中で、

Amazing Morning Out

Reviewed by: Rob

Really enjoyed our Morning out. The crew and Captain made the trip so much better. Honestly, their energy was off the charts, the music was good, enjoyable for all ages (we went as a couple in our mid 20’s and loved it, there were children loving it and parents older than us that were having a blast!)

I’d recommend the photo package, we didn’t get it but looking back and seeing how many pictures Tom took is outstanding. It’s the only photo package I’ve seen so far that guarantees 300 real photos of you minimum.

We’ve done a lot of trips on this holiday and this was probably the best crew I’ve seen. Can’t rate them high enough. Wish I could remember all their names but I can’t. Either way, amazing team to have.

Although it wasn't guaranteed that we would see dolphins, we were able to see many of them. The boat was comfortable, and the staff really got everyone excited, making for a very enjoyable day.

Good with some room for improvement

Reviewed by: JEC

Good price, good location, fun crew.

Need to provide something more than meet-at-the-bathrooms-of-a-marina for mustering instructions. There were no crew/personnel at said marina bathroom well past the appointed time. The check-in process was haphazard at best, and did not instill a lot of confidence in the crew's ability/professionalism. The shuttle brining additional guests from Honolulu/Waikiki was very late and delayed our departure by more than 30 minutes (of a three hour cruise). This is obviously not the crew's fault and there is nothing they could have done about the traffic; however, the lack of communication to the guests who were there waiting could have (and should have) been much much better.

Once on the boat, the crew proved knowledgable and kind. A fun cruise that is perfectly suited for visitors staying on the west end of the island. There are similarly priced options closer to Honolulu and Waikiki without the hour-plus drive through really bad traffic.

This was our 2nd time doing the Dolphins and You Tour (we did it in 2017). Last time was amazing as we had a very calm day and saw lots of dolphins. This time it was quite rough and we did not get an opportunity to swim in the ocean with them.
We did enjoy our time anchored in the bay, where we snorkeled, kayaked and swam. Lunch was delicious and the crew was terrific.
Even despite not seeing dolphins, it was a lovely day.

I participated with my mother/daughter! In the morning, the weather was bad, and there was thunder and rain in the distance, but by early afternoon it cleared up, and I was so happy to see dolphins and whales up close.

It was a very fun tour! とっても楽しいツアーでした!

Reviewed by: カナナ

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 west side of Oahu is a great way to get away from the busy Waikiki area! Recommend for a sun filled snorkel adventure!

Such a great day from beginning to end. Excellent bus for transport. The tour operators made it a really fun day and it was awesome to see them enjoying their jobs so much! Great food and plenty of it for lunch. Fabulous to see a huge pod of dolphins which was the highlight of the day :) thanks guys
