We participated as a couple. Since check-in was at the beach in front of the hotel, there wasn't a check-in counter; instead, there was a staff member under a parasol, which mixed in with other beachgoers and was a bit confusing (laughs). I thought this was quite typical of being overseas. We moved to a boat in front of the Halekulani Hotel to board.
Everyone else was from English-speaking countries. The crew spoke only in English, and since I had some snorkeling experience, I managed to keep up. The snorkeling lasted quite a while, about an hour. There was an explanation in English on how to put on the gear, and we were given life jackets and goggles (no fins, but that was fine). Equipped with the snorkeling set, we headed into the sea!! When I swam along with the crew, there were sea turtles!!! I was thrilled to encounter four of them! The seawater was a bit murky, so it was hard to see the fish, but I still had a great time. After that, we returned to the boat for sailing. It was an exhilarating moment with the large sail unfurled, creating a sense of speed. You can buy water and beer on the boat, so no need to worry about drinks! (Cash is better.) There was also a restroom on board. Since sailing can be quite bumpy for a long time, those prone to seasickness should take motion sickness medication. It was a great activity to enjoy the waters of Waikiki in a short amount of time!!
夫婦で参加しました。
ホテルの前のビーチでチェックインという事だったので、チェックインカウンター的なものはなく、パラソルの下に担当のお姉さんが居て他の海水浴客のパラソルと混ざり困惑(笑)これも海外っぽいなぁなんて思いました。
ハレクラニホテルの前にある船に移動して乗船。
私達以外は全員英語圏の方だった。
船員も終始英語で、スノーケル経験者だったのでなんとかついていけたって感じ。
スノーケルは長めで、1時間くらい。英語での装着の説明もあり、ライフジャケットと水中メガネを渡されます。(フィンは無し。無くても大丈夫でした。)
スノーケルセットを装備していざ、海へ!!
船員の人に泳いでついて行くと…そこには海ガメが!!!その後も4匹も出会えて感動でした!少し海水が濁っていたので魚は見えにくかったですが、楽しめました。その後、船に戻ってセイリング。大きな帆を広げてスピード感とスリリングなひと時でした。お水やビールなども船上で買えるので飲み物の心配なし!(現金の方が良い)トイレも船内にありました。セイリングは割と長い時間揺れるので船酔いする人は酔い止めが必要です。
ワイキキの海を短時間で楽しめる良いアクテビティでした!!

Straight off Waikiki beach - fun crew. We had dolphins frolicking off our bow and escorting us halfway to Diamond Head then saw plenty of turtles when we snorkeled.

I participated because I could swim with wild dolphins. I was concerned about seasickness, but I took motion sickness medication beforehand, so it wasn't an issue.
It takes quite a while to reach the snorkeling point after departure, but the staff kept the atmosphere lively, and I had a very enjoyable time on board.
When the captain signaled, we jumped in. We swam to the watching point under our own power, and below us were schools of dolphins. I was healed by the graceful swimming of the dolphins.
We moved to another point and saw many dolphins, and we also spotted a sea turtle swimming along the seabed. The staff were all cheerful and fun. There are also people who can speak Japanese, so feel free to join without worry.
野生のイルカと一緒に泳げるということで参加。
気になる船酔いは事前に酔い止め薬を服用していたので問題ありませんでした。
出港してからシュノーケリングポイントまでは結構な時間がかかりますが、船上ではスタッフのみなさんが盛り上げてくれて非常に楽しい時間を過ごせます。
船長の合図でいざ入水。
ウォッチングポイントで目視できるところまで自分たちの力で泳いでいくと、眼下にはイルカたちの群れ。
優雅に泳ぐイルカたちに癒やされます。
他のポイントへ移動し、沢山のイルカたちに会えましたし、海底を泳いでいくウミガメも見られました。

The meeting place was hard to find. The guides were all foreigners, but there were Japanese language sheets with important information provided. We used the emergency life jackets as they were. There were only black fish, but we were able to see two families of sea turtles. They came up for air, so we were able to swim together for a while, which was very moving.
集合場所が分かりずらかったです。ガイドはみんな外人でしたが注意事項は日本語の用紙が用意されてました。ライフジャケットは緊急用のをそのまま使用でした。魚は黒いのしかいなかったですが海ガメ親子2家族とも会えました。息継ぎで上に出てきてくれたのでしばらく一緒に泳げてとても感動しました。

I previously participated in another snorkeling tour off Waikiki and had a great time, so this time I decided to join this one, which is slightly more expensive but includes a life vest as standard. My husband, who isn't the best swimmer, insisted on having a life vest, so we chose this option, and it turned out to be a good decision. Fortunately, there were plenty of sea turtles this time, which was a delight. The water clarity was decent, and personally, I think you can have a great time snorkeling off Waikiki without needing to go far. For those who have limited time but still want to snorkel, I think this is a great option. Drinks are available for purchase, and snacks are free. As expected, drinks are on the pricier side, so it might be a good idea to bring your own.
以前もう一方のワイキキ沖シュノーケルに参加してヨカッタので今回は若干高いけどライフベストが基本で配られるこちらに参加してみました。泳ぎが今ひとつな主人がライフベストがないとイヤ、というのでそうしたのですが、結果よかったです。ラッキーなことにウミガメが今回たくさんいて堪能。透明度もまずまずだし個人的には遠出しなくても十分ワイキキ沖で楽しめると思います。あまり時間がないけどシュノーケルも、という方にはポイント高いと思います。ドリンクは有料、スナックは無料です。当たり前ですがドリンクは高めなので、持参がよいかと・・・

When I entered the sea and looked in the direction the instructor indicated, I could really see four or five dolphins swimming! Furthermore, as a special treat, we changed locations and entered the sea again, where we were able to see nearly ten dolphins, including a small baby dolphin!! Other activities and events on the boat were also a lot of fun!! Thanks to the motion sickness band I purchased on the bus ride there, I was able to enjoy the experience without any seasickness at all!!
海に入ってインストラクターの指示する方向を見ると、本当にイルカが4,5頭泳いでいるのが見えました!さらに、今回は特別に、ということでポイントを変えて再度海に入ると、今度は小さな子どもイルカを含む10頭近くのイルカを見ることができました!!その他のアクティビティや船上でのイベント等もとても楽しかったです!!行きのバスで購入した酔い止めバンドのおかげで、まったく船酔いもせず楽しむことができました!!

These guys are fantastic. Very customer centric and knowledgeable. They went out of their way to show us a good time and all with a great sense of humour. They had spotted a pod of dolphins off to the left of our journey out to the turtles and took a wee detour so we could experience the dolphins. It was amazing!! Loved the turtles experience - the only recommendation here would be that the option of being able to hire a gopro on board would have put the icing on the cake. We didn't have an underwater camera and would gladly have paid to hire one to capture the turtles and colourful fish down under.
The sail was fantastic and the flying fish was another added unexpected bonus.
What a job!

Actually, I'm weak on boats and afraid of water, but this time I participated because of my family's wishes. However, thanks to the staff and the life vests, I was able to enjoy snorkeling with peace of mind, and the boat didn't rock, so I could enjoy my cocktails deliciously. Above all, I was very satisfied to see so many sea turtles up close! They came so close that I almost bumped into one. I thought I would like to participate again on my next trip to Hawaii. Thank you for the wonderful memories!
じつは船に弱く水も怖いのですが、今回は家族の希望で参加しました。
ところが、スタッフやライフベストのおかげでシュノーケリングも安心して楽しめ、船も揺れないのでカクテルを美味しく飲めました。

The crew was super nice and very informative. I felt very safe while sailing and snorkling. A crew member snorkles with you and helps you spot the turtles. There were lots of turtles to be seen! We were fortunate to go on a day that there were only about 10 of us, so we basically had the boat to ourselves! It was great! I mean you are snorkling with green sea turtles and sailing in Hawaii "what's not to love"?! I highly recommend Holokai Catamaran Turtle Canyon Snorkel Sail (from Waikiki Beach) / Snorkel Cruise!

I participated in a tour that started at 11:00. I received a call about the pickup 30 minutes before, which left a good impression. They arrived on time, and we were able to depart. After setting sail on the boat, we searched for dolphins, but there weren't large groups, and those who saw them had very little time, which was disappointing. Since I didn't see any dolphins, I received a coupon for 50% off for my next visit on the way back. My family also enjoyed it, so I would like to participate again when I come to Hawaii next time.
11時開始のツアーに参加しました。
お迎え30分前にホテルにお迎え予定の電話があり好印象。

船で出船後、イルカを捜しましたが大きな群れは無く、見れた人、時間も少しで残念でした。
イルカが見れなかったので帰りに次回50%offで使用できるクーポンをもらいました。
