It was fun. 楽しかった

Reviewed by: AkikoH

I had diving experience, so I was accustomed to snorkeling and enjoyed it. However, my companion was new to snorkeling and being in deep water, which caused a bit of panic, and they couldn't see the dolphins underwater as a result. That said, I was satisfied with the tour because we got to see the dolphins up close from the back of the boat when they swam alongside us.

ダイビング経験があったので、シュノーケルにも慣れていたので楽しめましたが、連れはシュノーケル&足が付かない海は初めてだったので、ややパニックになり、せっかくのイルカを海の中から見ることはできず。
ただ、船と並走してイルカが泳いでいた時に、船尾から間近でイルカを見れたことで、ツアーとしては満足していました

It's disappointing that the water level is high. 水位が高くて残念。

Reviewed by: さりー

Unfortunately, the water level was high, and the sandbar was not visible. However, I was able to see sea turtles! The schedule indicated that there would be a barbecue lunch after snorkeling, but in reality, it was before snorkeling, so I was worried about getting seasick and couldn't eat. When I participated, it was quite windy and felt cold, so it's better to bring a jacket.

残念ながら水位が高くて、サンドバーは顔を出していませんでした。
でも海ガメはばっちり見れました！
スケジュール上ではシュノーケルの後にバーベキューランチと書いてありましたが、実際はシュノーケルの前にバーベキューランチだったので、酔わないか心配で食べられませんでした。
私が参加したときはけっこう風があって寒く感じたので、上着は持っていった方が良いです。

カイルアビーチ送迎シャトルサービス　嬉しい5時間滞在！ビーチグッズなど各種レンタル付き＜日本語スタッフ／ランチ付＞

Misunderstanding. 勘違い。

Reviewed by: ロン＆Ｎ

I thought I could enjoy a relaxing snorkeling experience in Kailua's sea, but while the view of the ocean from the beach is beautiful, once you get in the water, the waves are high and it's murky, making it hard to see even a little bit ahead underwater. If you're not going into the sea and just want to spread out a beach mat to read or gaze at the ocean, this is a recommended course. Also, the pizza for lunch was hearty and delicious.

カイルアの海でのんびりシュノーケリングができると思って参加したのですが。浜から見る海は美しい。しかし、海に入ると波は高いし、濁っていてほんのちょっとの先も水中からでは見えない。海にはいらず、ビーチマットを広げて、読書とか海を眺めるのならおすすめのコースです。尚、昼食のピザはボリュームがあり、おいしかった。

I participated hoping to see wild dolphins, and on the day, I was able to encounter several dolphins, which was truly a wonderful experience! It's rare to see so many. I heard that on some days, they move around to different locations in search of dolphins. It was my first time snorkeling. The guide wasn't very thorough, so I was relieved that my friend who accompanied me taught me how to put on the gear and what to be careful of when jumping in.

野生のイルカに少しでも会えたら・・・と思い参加しましたが、当日は何頭ものイルカと出会うことができ本当に素晴らしい体験ができました！こんなに沢山出るのは珍しいとのこと。日によってはイルカを求めてあちこち場所を移動するそうです。シュノーケリング自体初めてでした。あまり丁寧にはガイドはしてくれませんので、同行した友人に装着の仕方とか、飛び込んだ際の注意点など教えてもらえて安心しました。

There were too many participants, so we couldn't board the large boat and ended up going to the sandbar on a cruiser with two honeymoon couples (≧▽≦)ﾉ It was very comfortable.
The sea was crystal clear and very beautiful ♡ It was completely different from Waikiki.

You can go snorkeling nearby, but we didn't do that and just played at the sandbar. There were plenty of floaties and toys available to borrow. We had plenty of time and were able to play a lot.
I was so happy to see a sea turtle up close, which I had always wanted to do (*>∀<*)ゞ

On the way back, we got to steer the cruiser, which was a very valuable experience.
I really felt lucky‼ I'm so glad I participated in this tour.
The staff were all really nice, and I made some wonderful memories.
Thank you very much ♡

参加者が多すぎたのか大きい船には乗れず、ハネムーンカップル2組に紛れてクルーザーでサンドバーまで行くことになりました(≧▽≦)ﾉとても快適でした。
海は透き通ってて、とても綺麗でした♡ワイキキと全然違いました。

その近くでシュノーケリングが出来ますが私たちはせずにサンドバーで遊んでました。浮き輪や遊び道具がいっぱいあり借りることが出来ます。時間もたっぷりあり沢山遊ぶことが出来ました。
念願のウミガメも近くで見れて嬉しかったです(*>∀<*)ゞ

帰りはクルーザーを操縦させてもらえて、とても貴重な体験をしました。

I participated with a senior colleague from work. The staff were very friendly, and there was music playing on the boat, creating a fun atmosphere. I was expecting a BBQ on board, but it was just simple hamburgers, which was a bit disappointing. However, they were very delicious! Everyone had the chance to see dolphins and sea turtles, as we were able to enter the water twice at the designated points. The hula dancing was physically demanding, but I enjoyed the whole day. I think it would be a lot of fun to participate with a large group of friends.

Sea turtles are cute! 海亀がカワイイ！

Reviewed by: task

It was a tour that can only be described as a hit! What made it a hit... was that we got to play with sea turtles for about 30 minutes☆

Normally, you might hear comments like "the white sandbar was beautiful" or "I got to see sea turtles," but surprisingly, the sea turtles came to play with our boat. According to the captain, he once rescued a sea turtle that got caught on a fishing hook, and since then, every time he takes the boat out, they come to visit. In fact, among about 20 people in the water, one turtle was the first to rub its head against the captain, as if asking to be petted. There are state laws regarding this, but it felt just like having a pet. (By the way, the turtle's name is Maurice.)

Thanks to that, I was able to take tons of photos and videos with my waterproof camera♪ I even got a picture of us swimming together!

As for the sandbar, it was about knee-deep, so it wasn't quite like the pictures in the package, but to be honest, I wasn't too interested in a sandbar without any creatures. If you're someone who wants to fully enjoy the "Wow, it's beautiful!" experience, I recommend checking the depth online thoroughly. (I had looked it up too, but I was okay with it.)

During snorkeling, there was a small sea turtle resting, and when I stared at it, it slowly woke up and came over to play with the boat♪ Big sea turtles, small sea turtles—this tour left me with an intense and wonderful impression of "playing with sea turtles"♪

The BBQ was, of course, delicious, and if I ever get the chance to go again, I would want to request the captain to bring Maurice along for a visit (laughs).

I absolutely recommend this tour! If you look at the photos, I think everyone will want to go on this tour☆ (I turned the photos to landscape because they were cut off in portrait mode.)

当たりとしかいいようのないツアーでした！
何が当たりか・・・それは海亀と30分くらい遊べたことです☆

通常なら「白いサンドバーが綺麗だった」「海亀に会えた」という感想が
多いでしょうが、なんと海亀が自分たちの船に遊びに来てくれました。
キャプテンに話を聞いたところ、浦島太郎のごとく、釣り針にひっかかった
海亀を助けたところ、毎回そのキャプテンが船を出すと、寄ってくるように
なった、とこのこと。
実際、20人くらいが海にいる中で、真っ先にキャプテンに頭をこすりつけて、
まるで撫でてくれと言ってるばかりのスキンシップをしてました。
州の法律もありますが、まるでペットです。（ちなみに亀の名前はモーリス）

そのおかげで、防水カメラで写真・動画撮りまくりです♪
一緒に泳いでる写真も撮れました！

肝心のサンドバーは膝くらいの深さだったので、パッケージ写真のようにはいきませんが、正直♂なので、生き物のいないサンドバーに興味がなく、
「わぁ～綺麗！」を満喫したい方は、しっかりネットで深さを調べことをお勧めします。（自分も調べた上でしたが、まいっかって気持ちだったので）

シュノーケリングでも休憩中の小さな海亀が居て、その子もじ～っと見てたら、
のそ～っと起きて、船の方まで遊びに来てくれました♪
大きな海亀、小さな海亀、自分の中では「海亀と戯れる」ツアーという
強烈で最高の印象となりました♪

BBQももちろんおいしく、もしもう一度行く機会があった場合は、
海亀のモーリスが遊びに来てもらうために、船長を指定したいくらいです（笑）

絶対にお勧めのツアーです！
写真を見ていただければ、誰もが行きたくなるツアーだと思います☆

3-Hour Ko Olina Snorkel Cruise & Dolphin Watching Tour with Deli Lunch & Drinks

Good experience, but not amazing snorkeling

Reviewed by: User038575

I gave an ok/average rating because this was an expensive excursion and the snorkeling was not up to par. The staff was incredible---- friendly, fun and courteous, but this seemed to be a boat ride geared toward hanging out and drinking on the boat rather than seeing awesome fish, coral reefs, etc. We had 2 snorkel stops and fish/turtles were average. But the crew made sure we saw dolphins from the boat, which was cool.

As far as snorkeling, it was nothing too interesting especially because my husband and I have done amazing snorkeling in Maui and Bora Bora. If you want to drink and relax for an afternoon, this is a top choice. But, a little too expensive for what you get if you are really into snorkeling and seeing different kinds of underwater life.

After arriving in Hawaii, I was looking forward to snorkeling three hours later. However, my bag that I had checked in at the hotel didn't arrive! I confirmed with the travel agency where I checked my bag, but they said it would take time. If they had informed me in advance, I would have brought it myself... I thought about that as the meeting time was approaching.

I had planned to come to Hawaii with my family, but my child was unwell, so I ended up coming alone. I wanted to take pictures for my child, who was looking forward to seeing sea turtles, but since my bag didn't arrive, I had to give up on participating... I was wondering what I had come here for!

However, thanks to the warm consideration from VELTRA and the tour company, I was able to reschedule and participate.

This was truly moving! Really! I thought I would have to cancel since I wouldn't make it to the tour that day. The tour was really enjoyable and exceeded my expectations; it went by in no time. Everyone was kind and considerate to me, a solo participant, and I am grateful. Next time, I will definitely participate with my family. I sincerely thank you. Thank you very much.

ハワイに到着し３時間後にシュノーケルだ！そう思い楽しみにしていましたが・・・
ホテルの部屋に預けていたカバンが来ない！
鞄を預けた某旅行会社に確認したが時間がかかるとのこと、事前に話していてくれれば自分で持って行ったのに・・・そう考えるも集合時間が押し迫り。
こりゃー駄目だなと諦め間に合わない旨を電話しました。


今回のハワイは家族で来る予定でしたが子供の体調が悪く私だけになりました。
ウミガメを楽しみにしていた子供のために何とか写真を撮ろうと思っていましたがカバンが来ず参加できないため諦めの私・・・
いったい何しに来たんだろうと思っていましたが！
ＶＥＬＴＲＡさんとツアー施行会社さんの心温まるご配慮で日をずらして参加させて頂くことが出来ました。

これはねー、涙ものですよ！本当に！
実際、当日のツアーには間に合わなかったのでキャンセルだなって思っていましたから。
ツアーは本当に楽しく期待通りであっという間でした。
皆さん優しく一人参加の私に気配りをして頂き感謝。
次は家族で絶対に参加させて頂きます。

The sandbar I've always dreamed of☆ 憧れのサンドバー☆

Reviewed by: momiji

We came to Hawaii for our honeymoon. Since we were in Hawaii, we had to go to the sandbar! So, we booked a tour with the popular Captain Bruce's. On the day of the tour, we encountered bad weather... Rain clouds stretched from the mountains to the sea. However, the tour staff encouraged us, saying, "It will surely clear up!"

On the day I participated, the boat was almost full, and it was all Japanese guests. There were two boats operating, so we were assigned to one when boarding. For safety, we had to go barefoot on the boat. Once we headed offshore, the boat stopped near the sandbar. From there, we entered the water and walked towards the sandbar. Since we walked over coral remains, sand, and small stones, reef shoes are a must! Most people didn’t bring them, so they walked slowly, looking like it hurt. It’s quite a walk from the boat to the sandbar.

That day, the water level didn’t drop enough for the sand to be exposed. Plus, it was drizzling and cold, so everyone was crouching in the water. After about 40 minutes, the rain clouds cleared, and we finally got to take some photos. After returning to the boat, we had lunch. There were sandwiches and salads, and they were very delicious. After that, we enjoyed snorkeling for about 30 minutes. Although the weather wasn’t great, we had a lot of fun.

新婚旅行でハワイに来ました。
せっかくハワイに来たので、サンドバーは行かなくては！！
ということで、人気のキャプテンブルースのツアーを申込みました。

でも、ツアーのスタッフさんが「きっと晴れる！」と励ましてくれました。
私の参加日はほぼ満員。もちろん日本人のみ。２隻船がでているので、乗船の際に割り当ててくれました。
船の上は安全の為はだしになります。沖合に出るとサンドバー近くで船を停めます。
そこからは海に入って歩いてサンドバーを目指します。サンゴの死骸や砂、小石の上を
歩くのでリーフシューズは必須です！ほとんどの人は持ってきてなかったので、痛そうにゆっくり歩いていました。船からサンドバーまでけっこう歩きます。
その日はサンドバーは砂が出るほどは水位が下がらなかったです。
しかも小雨で寒く、みんなしゃがんで海に浸かっていました。
40分くらいして雨雲が晴れ、やっと写真を撮れました。
船に戻ってからランチでした。サンドイッチやサラダなどがあり、とても美味しかったです。
そのあとはシュノーケリングを30分程楽しみました。
お天気には恵まれませんでしたが、とても楽しかったです。

I was dissatisfied with the service from the Japanese staff. 日本人スタッフの対応に不満

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

Both Japanese and local staff assisted with the tour, but the Japanese staff had a bad attitude. Overall, the explanations were insufficient. They didn't properly show us how to wear the snorkeling masks or life jackets. When we reached the dolphin point, we were pushed from the boat into the sea, and some participants hesitated because they weren't mentally prepared. The Japanese staff spoke quite harshly to those individuals, saying, "These are wild dolphins, if you can't get in the sea quickly, stay on the boat!" If there had been prior explanations, those participants could have managed better, and it was very unpleasant to witness.

Later, at the snorkeling point, we ended up with the "Dolphin Junior High" boat from the same company, and since we entered the sea at the same time, participants were swimming quite close to each other. When it was time to get back on the boat, my husband accidentally went to the "Dolphin Junior High" boat. At that moment, the Japanese staff from "Dolphin Junior High" shouted to the university staff, "This is university!" Afterward, they looked shocked, but referring to a customer as "this" is unbelievable.

While we did achieve our goal of seeing dolphins, the bad attitude of the Japanese staff ruined the experience. Although we saw wild dolphins in the sea, if there are other tours with similar content, I would prefer to choose those. I will not be repeating this experience.

日本人スタッフと現地スタッフの両方がツアーで対応してくれますが、日本人スタッフの感じが悪かったです。
とにかく、全てにおいて説明が不十分。シュノーケリングマスクやライフジャケットの装着方法もきちんとしてもらえませんでした。イルカのポイントにつくと、背中を押されるようにボートから海へ足から飛び込むのですが、参加者の中には心の準備ができておらず一瞬躊躇してしまった方も。日本人スタッフはその方たちに対して、かなりきつい口調で『野生のイルカなんだから、さっさと海には入れなければボートに残って！』と言っていました。事前に説明があれば、その方たちだってそれなりに動けたはずなのに、と思うと見ていて非常に感じが悪かったです。
また、その後のシュノーケリングポイントで、同じ会社のスタッフが乗っている『イルカ中学』のボートと一緒になり、同時に海に入った為参加者がかなり近くで泳いでおり、ボートにあがる様指示された時、主人が誤って『イルカ中学』の方のボートに行ってしまいました。その際、あろうことか、『イルカ中学』の日本人スタッフが『大学』のスタッフに向かって『これ、大学！』と叫んだそうです。その後『あ、やばい！』という顔をしていたそうですが、お客を『これ』呼ばわりです。信じられません。
イルカを見るという目的は果たせましたが、とにかく日本人スタッフの感じが悪くて嫌な思いをさせられ、台無しです。
確かに海に入って野生のイルカは見られましたが、同様の内容のツアーが他にあればそちらにすればよかったです。 リピートはしません。

I participated with my 4-year-old and 6-year-old children. The sandbar was truly beautiful, and the kids were thrilled. A turtle came quite close (about 50 cm away), which surprised the kids a bit, but we were able to take some great photos. We were the only ones with kids participating in snorkeling. My 6-year-old had their first snorkeling experience and really enjoyed it. They wore a life jacket and held onto a surfboard, and the staff took great care of us. The guide was also a fun person. The guide was Japanese, and the captain was from Hawaii and spoke Japanese well.

Even if you only speak Japanese, you can participate without any issues, but I think it would be more enjoyable if you could speak English to chat with the staff.

For those who didn't go snorkeling, they could talk with the remaining staff or learn canoeing or stand-up paddle surfing, so even those who are not good at snorkeling can have fun.

After getting on the boat, they served juice, bread, and donuts, so we didn't need to eat much for breakfast. Lunch was also served as a buffet, and it was quite filling.

I recommend this experience for everyone, from small children to young people and seniors.

4歳、6歳の子ども連れで参加しました。サンドバーは本当にきれいでこどもも大喜びでした。亀が近くまで来て(50cmくらいまで)子どもはちょっとびっくりしてましたが、よい写真がとれました。こどもでスノーケル参加はうちだけでした。6歳の子どもはスノーケル初体験でしたが、楽しんでできました。ライフジャケットをつけて、その上、サーフボードにつかまらせて、付きっきりで見ていただき、本当にお世話になりました。あと、ガイドさんも楽しい方です。ガイドさんは日本人。船長さんはハワイの方で日本語が上手です。
日本語しか話せなくても全く困らず参加できますが、英語が話せるとスタッフの方とたくさん話せて楽しいだろうなーと思います。
なお、スノーケリングをしなかった方は、残ったスタッフの方と話したり、カヌーやスタンドアップパドルサーフィンを教えてもらったりしてたので、スノーケリングが苦手な方も楽しめますよ。
船に乗ったあと、ジュース、パン、ドーナツを出してくださるので、朝御飯はあまり食べなくてもよかったです。
昼もビュッフェででます。かなり、お腹いっぱいになります。
小さな子どもから、若い方、ご年配の方、誰にでもおすすめです。

One group probably had around 20 to 30 dolphins, and I went into the water three times, encountering them twice. I swam with four or five groups, so there might have been around 150 dolphins in total. It was just so lucky.

Our guide, Minako, was very clear in her explanations and had a bright personality, which was wonderful. I forgot the name, but Captain Papa? also took us accurately to the points, and during the whale watching, he kindly waited on the spot from when we dove until we surfaced.

My mother, who was with me, decided to stay on the boat at one point, saying, "I don't want to go in the water anymore today," but Minako frequently encouraged her not to push herself, so she was able to rest without hesitation. Since it was a tour with many entries, quite a few people chose to rest on the boat during the second session (snorkeling at the tropical fish and sea turtle points).

Even though the weather was nice, we had been snorkeling for quite a while, so it got quite cold, and the warm tea we received on the boat was much appreciated. The snacks were also quite delicious. I devoured a cinnamon pastry and cheese. I was a bit concerned about the calories in the cereal bar, so I took it home.

I really had a great time. I definitely want to take my husband, who stayed home this time, with me next time.

お天気にも恵まれ、なんと100頭を超すイルカと泳ぐことができました！
ウミガメも2頭ほど見ることができ、おまけに時期が終わったかと思われたクジラも船の上から見ることができました。最近何かとツイていなかったので、「このために運をとっていたのか？」と思うほどでした。

ひとつの群れがたぶん2,30頭で、3回海に入って2回遭遇、4、5グループと一緒に泳ぐことができたので、もしかすると150頭くらいかもです。とにかくラッキーでした。

ガイドのミナコさんの説明はわかりやすく、明るい人柄でとても良かったです。お名前を忘れてしまったのですが、キャプテンパパ？もポイントまで的確に連れて行って下さり、ホエールの時も潜ってから浮き上がるまでその場で待機してくださるなど、親切でした。

同行の母が途中、「ちょっと今日はもう水に入りたくない」と船上に残っていたのですが、無理しないで～とミナコさんが頻繁におっしゃってくださっていたので、遠慮せず休むことができました。エントリー回数の多いツアーだったので、2時限目（熱帯魚やウミガメのポイントでのシュノーケル）はさすがに船上でお休みされる方が多かったです。

良いお天気と言えども、結構な時間シュノーケルしていたので冷えてしまい、船上でいただいた温かいお茶はありがたかったです。スナックも結構おいしかったです。シナモン系の菓子パンとチーズぺろりと食べてしまいました。シリアルバーはさすがにカロリーが気になって持ち帰りました。

本当に楽しかったです。
今度はお留守番してもらった夫もぜひ連れて行きたいと思いました。

イルカ中学　野生のイルカ＆ウミガメシュノーケリングクルーズ　高速ボートでイルカ遭遇率アップ！＜少人数制／ワイキキ＆コオリナ送迎可／日本語／ランチ付き＞

I was anxious about not being able to meet... 会えなくてヒヤヒヤしましたが・・・

Reviewed by: MINA

This is my sixth time in Hawaii! I've wanted to join this tour for a while, and I finally participated this time.

Once we arrived at the port, we put on our wetsuits and immediately boarded the boat. The water temperature is low during this season, and the boat is fast, so being exposed to the wind the whole time was quite cold. Renting a wetsuit for $10 was definitely the right choice. By the way, everyone in the group rented one (laughs).

We set sail and searched for about two hours. Ultimately, we headed north up to just before the North Shore, but there was no sign of dolphins, and everyone was getting tired.

At that moment, we encountered a whale! It's rare to see one at this time of year. Everyone was thrilled by this unexpected encounter.

So, what about the dolphins? We received information from another boat that they were near the port! It was a case of "right under the lighthouse." We quickly headed south and managed to meet the dolphins. Depending on the day, there can be hundreds of them, but there were only a few on this day. However, I was really glad to see them clearly with my own eyes and to swim close to them.

After that, we moved to a snorkeling point and got to swim with about five sea turtles. They came close enough to touch.

The staff's energy was incredibly high throughout, so if you're not a fan of that kind of lively student-like atmosphere, it might be a bit overwhelming. Also, it's quite intense, so I don't think it's suitable for those who lack physical stamina or for older individuals. It really drains your energy.

I wonder if it varies by day? I've heard there are days when they can be found easily, which might make it easier. We had quite a struggle finding them. When we finally spotted them, it was like "Let's go!" and everyone jumped in at once (there were also people from other companies), so it got crowded, and I ended up getting kicked by someone’s fin.

But it all became a great memory.

ハワイは６回目！前からこのツアーに参加してみたく、今回ついに参加してきました。

港についたら、ウェットスーツを着用しすぐに船に乗り込みます。
この時期は水温も低いし、船は高速ですのでずーと風にさらされ寒いので借りて
大正解。有料で１０ドルです。ちなみに参加者の全員が借りていました（笑）

出航して、２時間くらい？？探し回りました。最終的にはノースショアの手前まで
北上し探しましたがイルカ先生は全くいる気配がなく、みんなお疲れモード。

そんな時に、クジラに遭遇！この時期にいるのは珍しいとのこと。
思わぬ出会いにみんな喜んでいました。

で、イルカ先生は？仲間の船から、港の近くにいるとの情報が！灯台下暗しですかね。
いっきに南下し、なんとかイルカ先生に会うことができました。
日によっては何百匹といるそうですが、この日は数頭でした。
しかしこの目でハッキリと見ることができたし、近くで泳ぐことができて本当に
良かったです。

その後はシュノーケルポイントに移動して、亀大教授と泳ぐこともできました。
５匹くらいいましたよ。触れるくらい近くまで来てくれました。

スタッフのテンションが終始バカ高いので、そういう学生ノリの賑やかなのが苦手な方は苦痛かも？
しかも結構なスパルタなので、体力に自信のない方、高齢の方には向いてないと思います。ものすごく体力を消耗します。

日によるのかな？？すぐに見つかる日もあるらしいから、そういう日は楽チンなのかも。私達はなかなか見つからず苦労しましたからね。
みつかった瞬間、それいけーーーーって感じで、みんなが一斉に飛び込み（他の会社の連中もいるから）混みあっていて、前の人のフィンで蹴られる始末です。

でも全部がいい想い出になりました。

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

Excellent adventure. Don't miss it!!

Reviewed by: Stone Family

This was awesome!!! We not only saw dolphins but we saw humpback whales at the end of their migration. They also took us to a reef where we snorkeled with a sea turtle and saw tons of tropical fish. The girls on the boat crew were awesome. Highly educated about the ocean environment and the sea creatures. This was definitely one of the highlights of our Hawaii vacation. Don't miss this activity. Especially if you can do it during the whale migration season. Also, Domingo, our shuttle driver that picked us up from the hotel was a great tour guide as well.

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

Just Terrific

Reviewed by: garathome

They pick you up at your hotel and drive you to the west side. They gear you up, they advise you not to touch or chase. You get on the water and if you're lucky, like us, you spot a pair of hump back whales. Then when they locate the dolphin herd, you get to swim among them for about an hour. Then you get to spend almost as much time over a reef, where you can swim with sea turtles and other fish. It was just terrific.

Then you get a decent sandwich and a drink, because you will be hungry after a full morning. Then they drive you back to Waikiki.

Excellent photo disk available to chronicle your trip, at a good price, if you wish. 400 photos of your trip + bonus file with great pics of dolphins, whales, and the area.

Only negative was no changing facility, public restrooms only. Also no bathroom on the boat so be prepared.

Definitely worth the price for this experience.

シュノーケリングクルーズ　イルカやウミガメに出会えるチャンスも！？選べる8時／12時出港プラン＜ハワイアンプレートランチ＆アルコール4杯付き／ワイキキ送迎あり＞

That's unusual!! 珍しい！！

Reviewed by: ヤギタ

I had a truly valuable experience.
It's something unimaginable in Japan.
I was constantly excited to be so close to wild animals.
I got to see dolphins, of course, as well as sea turtles and whales.
From the exotic boat, I watched dolphins and chased after escaping sea turtles, haha.
Thanks to the captain's arrangements, or perhaps his keen eye, we spotted a whale and even saw it spouting water.
It's an experience unique to traveling abroad that you won't understand until you try it.
I also think the cost performance is quite good.

とても貴重な体験をしました。
日本では考えられない経験です。
野生の動物とこんなに間近で触れ合えて興奮しっぱなしでした。
イルカはもちろん、海ガメ・クジラに会えました。
異国情緒たっぷりな船からイルカをみて、逃げるウミガメを追いかけたりしてｗ
船長さんのはからいか、神眼かしら？クジラを発見し、潮吹きも見ました。
海外旅行ならでは、行ってみないとわからない体験です。
コスパも悪くないと思います。

サンドバー　キャプテンブルース　天国の海®︎シュノーケリングクルーズ　SUPや浮き輪などレンタルアイテムも！＜午前・午後／日本語クルー＞

It's a very beautiful place. とっても綺麗な場所です

Reviewed by: aaq28670

I went to this famous tourist spot that I had heard about for a while! You can also go snorkeling, and the sea was truly beautiful. If the weather isn't good, it can get cold, so it's definitely a good idea to bring a jacket that you don't mind getting wet and a bath towel!

前々から聞いていた有名な観光なので行ってみました！シュノーケリングもでき、本当に美しい海でした。天気がよくないと寒い思いをするので、かならず濡れてもよい上着とバスタオルは持って行った方がいいですよ！

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　ジャンボスライダーやSUPも楽しめる！＜ランチ付き／ワイキキ＆コオリナ送迎／日本語または英語ガイド＞

It was fun. 楽しかった

Reviewed by: さくらん

The distance to the dolphins was far, and the snorkeling experience to see the dolphins was quite short, lasting less than 10 minutes, which was disappointing. However, there was plenty of time for snorkeling with sea turtles after moving to another location, so I wish I could have seen the dolphins a bit longer.

The staff members were very kind.

イルカとの距離が遠く、イルカ見学のシュノーケリング自体は１０分弱とかなり短かったのが残念。　その後移動してからのウミガメなどのシュノーケリングタイムはたっぷりあったので、もう少しイルカを見たかったです。

係員の皆様は大変親切でした。
