From the boat, I was able to see sea turtles up close, and I also saw several while snorkeling. They scattered food, which attracted many fish.
It was a bit disappointing that the sea was a little murky, probably because it was an afternoon trip.
The staff were very kind, and it was a fun experience.
船の上からも海亀が近くで見ることができ、シュノーケルでも何匹も見ることができました。エサをまいてくれたので、沢山の魚が寄って来てくれていました。

The crew for Hawea deserved an extra round of applause. They are the epitome of friendly professionals. The day we did our snorkel trip, it was a bit choppy due to a storm that had passed the previous night. Unfortunately, it left several passengers pretty sick. The crew did an excellent job taking care of everyone, and making sure everyone stayed safe!
If you have any kind of motion sickness, this might not be the best choice.

Everything ran on time, the boat was clean and functioned properly. The crew was great; very fun and engaging. The crew provided a lot of local information/history. The water is just a little on the cold side, so a sun/swim shirt or a wet suit top may be a good idea. If you don’t want to use community snorkels, you may want to bring your own.
Sunscreen. Masks and snorkels provided, no flippers, but those aren’t necessary.
Aloha! Thank you for your 5 star and very useful information! We look forward to seeing you soon!

I checked the tide forecast and went at the time when it was supposed to be 0m, but the water depth at the site was 50-60cm. I had a decent time with the floaties and SAP. The staff was friendly, and there were explanations in Japanese on the boat, so I had no worries at all.

We participated as a family of six, including our young children. On the way to the sandbar, we spotted a few honu (sea turtles) here and there. We were able to see a heart-shaped reef, and it was a pleasant cruise while enjoying snacks and drinks on board.
After arriving at the sandbar, we split into two groups (maybe depending on the number of participants?), and we alternated between snorkeling tours and activities in two sessions. I thought snorkeling would be just one of the activities, but it felt more like a full tour, so it seemed challenging for those who aren't good swimmers. However, our children, who are not yet confident swimmers, borrowed bodyboards with windows to peek underwater and participated while being pushed by their parents, so they could enjoy it too. We saw many honu here as well.
The activities included canoeing, stand-up paddleboarding, and floating rings, among others, which was great to experience. Unfortunately, due to our travel schedule, we were there during a neap tide, but we chose a plan that coincided with low tide, so the water level was just knee to thigh deep, which was perfect for paddleboarding and canoeing!
At first, I thought the participation fee was a bit high, but it turned out to be a very satisfying day with the rare experience of seeing many honu.
子供(未就学児)と両親を含め家族6人で参加しました。
サンドバーに向かう最中からホヌ(ウミガメ)がチラホラ。ハート型のリーフも見る事ができ、船上でお菓子や飲み物を楽しみながらの気持ち良いクルージングでした。
サンドバー到着後は、2つのグループに別れ(参加人数にもよるのかな?)、前後半でシュノーケリングツアーとアクティビティを交代してやる感じでした。シュノーケリングはアクティビティの中の一つかと思いきや、ガッツリとツアーのような感じで泳ぐので、泳ぎが苦手な方は大変そうでした。でも、まだ泳ぎも得意とは言えない我が家の子供達は、最初からシュノーケルは使わず、水中を覗ける窓付きのボディボード(?)を借りて、それを親が押しながら参加出来たので、子供でも楽しめました。ここでもホヌが沢山見れました。
アクティビティはカヌーやサップ、浮き輪などなど、、色々体験出来て良かったです。
今回、旅程の関係で残念ながら小潮の時期でしたが、干潮の時間にツアーが重なる日とプランを選んだので、水位は膝〜もも位の深さで、サップやカヌーをやるにはちょうど良かったです!
最初は参加費が高いかなぁと思いましたが、たくさんのホヌに会える貴重な体験も出来て、大満足な1日になりました。
A friend who participated before mentioned that the water depth was chest-high, so I think it's essential for those attending to check the low tide times. Also, February is quite cold, and I shivered
以前参加した友人は、胸位の深さだったそうなので、参加される方は干潮の時間を絶対に調べた方が良いと思いました。あと、2月はさすがに寒く、海から上がると震えたので、この時期に行く方は上着が必要です!
Aloha! This is Captain Bruce's Paradise Ocean Tour. Thank you for joining the tour yesterday. We are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed it with your children. Please come back and visit us again next time you are in Hawaii. We look forward to that day with the honu. A hui hou 🌺

Snorkeling at the coral reef was amazing; I saw a lot of sea turtles and was able to swim right next to them. I was a bit nervous about snorkeling during the pre-briefing, but the time spent was not too long, and we all swam together, so even someone like me, who isn't very confident in swimming, had no problems. It was great that there were plenty of rice balls, snacks, and drinks prepared on the boat.
サンゴ礁のところでのシュノーケリングはウミガメがたくさん見れましたし、すぐ近くで泳ぐこともできました。シュノーケリングは事前説明で少しビビッていましたが、時間もそれほど長くなく、結構皆さんで固まって泳いでいったので、泳ぎにあまり自信がない私でも問題なかったです。船でのおにぎりやお菓子、飲み物など十分用意されていて良かったです。

Since it was early in the morning, the pickup time was 5:45 AM. We arrived at a nearby cape before dawn and waited for a while, reaching the entrance just after 7 AM. After entering at 8 AM with standard equipment (snorkel, fins) along with optional life jackets, umbrellas, and chairs, there was a presentation, and we finally made it to the beach by 8:30 AM, ready to swim. Overall, the time spent carrying our belongings was long and tiring. We did see some fish in the sea, but the scenery wasn't as impressive as we had hoped. I also thought the entrance fee of $25 per person was high.
朝一だったのでピックアップの時間は5時45分、夜明け前に近くの岬に到着してしばらく待機し、入口についたのが7時過ぎ。入口から標準装備(シュノーケル、フィン)の他にオプションの救命具、パラソル、椅子をもって8時に入場開始が始まり、説明の上映もあって、8時半にやっと浜辺に着き泳げる体制になりました。とにかく荷物を運んでいる時間も長くくたびれました。海は魚も見れましたが、期待しているほどの景観ではなかったです。また入場料も25ドル/人は高いと思いました。
In the morning, the view is not as good as I expected due to backlighting, and since there are entry restrictions, I think it's better to go around noon.
朝は逆光のため思ったより景観は良くなく、入場制限もあるので昼頃に入るのが良いと思います。

After the boat departed, we started with snorkeling at a specific point, and then we went out to sea for dolphin watching. The snorkeling time felt long, but for dolphin watching, it was like, "Is this it? Are we going back already?" We did see wild dolphins, but it was during their sleeping time, and it felt too short (laughs). I wonder if we were there for even 10 minutes... It was disappointing. The staff were very nice and made us feel at ease, so it's a shame.
船出発後、ポイント的にシュノーケリングが先でその後沖に出てドルフィンウォッチングしました。シュノーケリング時間は長く感じたのですが、ドルフィンウォッチングはえ、これで終わり?もう帰るの?という感じ。野生のドルフィンは見れてちょうど寝てる時間でしたが、短すぎる(笑)10分もいたかな、、、って感じです。期待はずれ。スタッフの方達はとても良い人たちで安心感もあったので残念です。
Thank you very much for participating in Dolphin & You Tour. We sincerely appreciate your valuable feedback.
We apologize for the short duration of the dolphin watching, which did not meet your expectations. As an eco-tour company, we prioritize observing wild dolphins in their natural environment without chasing them. Therefore, the time available for observation may vary depending on the dolphins' behavior and conditions. Additionally, if dolphins are hard to find, we may adjust the snorkeling time or change the order of watching and snorkeling based on sea conditions. We hope for your understanding in this matter.
We are encouraged by your kind words about our staff. We will continue to strive to provide tours that satisfy everyone, so we hope you will join us again in the future.
Once again, thank you for participating!
この度はドルフィン&ユーツアーにご参加いただき、誠にありがとうございました。 また、貴重なご意見をお寄せいただき、心より感謝申し上げます。
イルカウォッチングの時間が短く、期待に沿えなかったとのこと、大変申し訳ございません。弊社はエコツアー会社として認定されており、野生のイルカを無理に追い回すことなく、自然の中での観察を大切にしております。そのため、イルカの行動や状況によって、観察できる時間に差が出てしまうことがございます。また、イルカがなかなか見つからない場合は、シュノーケリングの時間を調整したり、海の状況に応じてウォッチングとシュノーケリングの順番を変更することもございます。何卒ご理解いただけますと幸いです。
スタッフについて温かいお言葉をいただき、大変励みになります。これからも、皆様によりご満足いただけるツアーをご提供できるよう努めてまいりますので、またの機会がございましたらぜひご参加くださいませ。

For my husband and me, an hour felt a bit long, and we got bored halfway through and felt a bit seasick. Additionally, we were disappointed that we couldn't spend a little more time relaxing on-site or stop by the local shops.

It was cold since we left early in the morning. The bus had the air conditioning on, so it was a good decision to bring a long-sleeved shirt. The cruise was comfortable, and we were able to see sea turtles and whales. It was a pity we didn't see any dolphins, but it was great to see the whales since they are only available in winter!
朝早く出発だったので、寒かったです。
バスも冷房が効いていたので、長袖持っていって正解でした。
クルーズは快適、ウミガメと、クジラが見れました。
イルカは残念でしたが、クジラの方が冬限定なので、見れて良かったです!
The bus is cold!
On the way back, you'll freeze if you're in a wet swimsuit.
I think it's best to dry off properly on the boat before heading back.
It was amazing to see a turtle swimming so cl
バスは寒いです!
帰り、濡れた水着だと凍えます。
船上でしっかり乾かしてからお帰りになるのが良いと思います。
カメがすぐ近くで泳いでいたのは感動でした!
Thank you for participating in Dolphin & You and for sharing your review!
It was a good decision to bring long sleeves, as the mornings can get chilly during winter. Although you didn't get to see dolphins, we appreciate your understanding and are glad you enjoyed the unique experience of encountering whales during this season. We're also happy to hear that you had the wonderful moment of meeting a sea turtle!
Additionally, thank you for your valuable feedback regarding the air conditioning on the bus. We will share this with the driver and strive to make your experience more comfortable. We look forward to seeing you again in the waters of Hawaii! Mahalo!🌺
このたびはドルフィン&ユーツアーにご参加いただき、またレビューをお寄せいただきありがとうございます!
冬の時期の朝は冷え込むので、長袖をお持ちいただき正解でした。イルカには会えなかったものの、冬ならではのクジラとの出会いを楽しんでいただけたこと、そしてご理解をいただけたことに感謝いたします。ウミガメにも出会えたとのことで、素敵な瞬間を体験していただけたようで私たちも嬉しいです!
また、バス内の冷房についての貴重なご意見もありがとうございます。ドライバーにも共有し、皆さまにより快適にお過ごしいただけるよう努めてまいります。
ぜひまたハワイの海でお会いできることを、スタッフ一同楽しみにしております! Mahalo!🌺

The water was murky because the wind was strong. The explanatory video about the sea that you must watch before entering is only a few minutes long. It's better to wait at the exit. Once you leave, you can immediately take the free shuttle.
風が強かったので水が濁っていた。海に入る前に見る海の説明ビデオは数分ですが必ず見ないといけません。出口で待っていた方が良いです。出たらすぐ送迎の無料トラックに乗ることができます。
You can rent a wetsuit for an additional $10. It's recommended since you'll be in the water for a long time.
ウエットスーツをプラス10ドル高借りれます。長い時間水に浸かるのでオススメです

It was amazing!
The clarity of the water, the variety and size of the fish were truly impressive!
I even got to meet a honu and swim with it!
My English is at a basic education level, and that's fine.
The guide speaks slowly to make it easy to understand.
While driving, they introduce recommended shops.
We stopped at a parking area for a location explanation, then had time for a briefing on how to use the snorkel, swimming precautions, and ordering additional rental items.
We rented a boogie board, but other parties rented life jackets.
最高でした
透明度、魚の種類、大きさ本当に見応えがあります!
ホヌとも出会えて一緒に泳ぐことができました!!
英語は義務教育レベルで問題ないです。
ガイドさんがわかりやすいようにゆっくり話してくれます。
運転中はおすすめのお店の紹介。
一旦パーキングに止めてロケーションの説明の後シュノーケルの使い方遊泳時の注意、追加のレンタル品のオーダーの時間がありました。
うちはブギーボードレンタルしましたが、他のパーティはライフジャケットをみんなレンタルしてました。
If you go a little deeper away from the sandy beach, you'll find more fish. To stay in the water as long as possible, I think it would be good to have items like a boogie board or a life jacket to res
砂浜から離れて少し深くなるところまで出た方が沢山魚がいます。なるべく長く海にいるためにもブギーボードやライフジャケットなど休めるようなアイテムがあるといいと思います。
楽しんで!!

Originally, it was scheduled for January 30, but I received a call from Veltra the day before, asking me to change the date due to a warning being issued for the next day. So, I participated on February 1.
When I come to Hawaii, Hanauma Bay is an absolute must-visit and one of my favorite places. Although it was an early morning, I was able to enjoy it while there were fewer people. I encountered many fish and was very satisfied. The weather was great, and the view of Hanauma Bay from near the entrance was amazing!
Of course, I want to go again.
当初は1/30の予定でしたが、前日にベルトラさんから電話を頂き、明日は警報が出ているので日程を変更してくださいとのこと。そして2/1に参加させて頂きました。
ハワイに来たらハナウマ湾は絶対外せない大好きな場所。朝が早いけど人が少ないうちから楽しめました。たくさんの魚にも逢えて大満足でした。天候も良く、入場口付近から見たハナウマ湾は最高です!
勿論、また行きたいです。
The concession stand is located outside the entrance, so you cannot buy food and drinks once you enter. I recommend bringing your own. If you have time before the meeting time, you can go out and buy
売店は入場口の外にあるので、入場すると飲食物は買えないので、持参することをお勧めします。集合時間に余裕あれば、出てから売店で買えますよ。

Since it was a Japanese instructor, I felt安心して参加できました. I participated with the desire to see a honu, so I was worried about the weather on the day of the event. Although the sea was slightly murky, I was able to meet the honu I had longed to see, and the instructor took many photos for me, creating wonderful memories.
日本人のインストラクターの方だったので、安心して参加できました。ホヌに逢いたい願望で参加したので、当日は天候が怪しくて心配もありました。実際に海は若干の濁りがありましたが念願のホヌにも逢え、インストラクターの方にたくさん写真を撮っていただきいい思い出になりました。

I think it would be beneficial to check the days when low tide coincides with the tour time, as participating then may enhance your satisfaction. While the dry season is likely the best time to join, I still had a great time even on a cloudy day.
I didn't mind the rocking of the boat. I took motion sickness medication, which seemed to help, and I was able to enjoy myself without feeling sick. The light snack of spam onigiri was delicious. There were also cocoa, miso soup, and snacks available, which made for a fulfilling experience.
In January, the weather was cloudy, so the sea felt cold, but I gradually got used to it. I participated in a swimsuit, rash guard, rash trunks, and reef shoes, which kept me comfortable. Each group received one stand-up paddleboard (SUP), allowing us to enjoy it to the fullest. The water was quite shallow, so there was no worry about drowning. After thoroughly enjoying the SUP, I joined the snorkeling activity. Even for first-timers, the staff provides support, so you can enjoy it with peace of mind. I brought a GoPro, so I was able to capture videos underwater. I recommend bringing your smartphone in a waterproof case or a waterproof camera to take plenty of photos and videos. Many Japanese participants joined, and there were explanations in Japanese each time, with all the staff being very kind. Luggage is stored under the chairs by group, so it's advisable to bring a bag that can get wet since there is a possibility of getting splashed. There are no coin lockers, so it's best not to bring valuables like passports and to take only cash for tips and one credit card.
On the way back, the bus stopped at a malasada food truck, which only accepted credit cards, so if you want to enjoy malasadas, it's a good idea to bring a credit card.
I gave tips to the staff on the boat and also to the bus driver on the way back. It would be wise to prepare tips for both.
干潮がツアー時間と被る日を調べて、参加すると満足度が高まるかと思います。乾季の参加がベストかとは思いますが、曇りでも十分楽しめました。
船の揺れは気になりませんでした。酔い止めを飲んでいたのが効いたのか酔わずに楽しめました。
軽食はスパムおにぎりが美味しかったです。ココアや味噌汁、スナック菓子もあり充実しています。
1月の参加で天気も曇りでしたので海は冷たく感じましたがだんだんと慣れてきました。服装は水着+ラッシュガード、ラッシュトレンカ、リーフシューズで参加し、快適に過ごせました。SUPは1グループに1つ配られるので思う存分楽しむことができました。結構浅瀬なので溺れる心配もありませんでした。SUPを十分に楽しんだ後はシュノーケルに参加しました。シュノーケルが初めての人でもスタッフがサポートしてくれるので安心して楽しめます。GoProを持って行ったので海中の動画を撮ることができました。防水ケースに入れてスマホを持っていくか、防水カメラを持っていくと写真や動画がたくさん取れて楽しめると思います。日本人が多く参加しており、日本語での説明も毎回あり、スタッフは全員とても親切でした。荷物はグループごとに椅子の下にしまいます。水に濡れる可能性があるので水に濡れても良いカバンで参加するのがオススメです。コインロッカーはないので、パスポートなどの貴重品は持参せず、チップ分の現金とクレジットカード1枚だけ持って行くと良いと思います。
帰りのバスでマラサダのキッチンカーに寄ってくれて、そこは現金が使えず、クレジットガードのみだったのでマラサダを食べたい人はクレジットカードを持って行くと良いと思います。
チップは船上のスタッフさんに渡したのと、帰りにバスの運転手さんにも渡しました。それぞれ用意しておくのがいいかと思います。

I was able to see the honu (sea turtle). It's recommended to go when you have enough stamina, as you'll be snorkeling for a long time. I felt cold and got a bit seasick along the way, but thanks to the instructors, I was able to participate in a fun atmosphere.
ホヌが見れました。長い時間シュノーケリングをする為、体力がある時がお勧めです。途中で寒く感じ波酔いをしましたが、先生方のお陰で楽しい雰囲気で参加出来ました。

Thank you for participating in the Captain Bruce's Paradise of the Sea Tour. I'm glad you were able to see sea turtles and many fish. The condition of the ocean can change from day to day, so it's difficult to say whether the morning or afternoon is better. I hope you enjoy your next visit even more than this time. We sincerely look forward to that day with the sea turtles. Mahalo!
キャプテンブルース天国の海ツアーです。この度はツアーにご参加いただきましてありがとうございます。海亀やたくさんの魚に会えたようで良かったです。
海の状態はその日によって変わるため午前午後どちらが良いとは言い切れないところが難しいところです。次回は今回以上にもっと楽しんで頂けますように。
その日をウミガメたちと心よりお待ちしております。Mahalo!
