You can fully enjoy the ocean! 海を満喫できます！

Reviewed by: SATOSHI

In the early morning, there are courses available in the morning, afternoon, and evening, and I chose the morning to head to "Kaneohe"! The ocean was even more beautiful than I imagined, and there was plenty of time to play and enjoy the sea. The guide informed us that there’s a high chance of encountering "honu" (sea turtles), and while looking at the surface of the water, everyone suddenly pointed at the sea (laughs). This time, I participated with my family, and we returned feeling warm and happy. I was a bit concerned about the restroom situation, but overall, it was a lot of fun!

　早朝、午前、午後とコースがある中で、午前を選択して、いざ、「カネオヘ」へ！想像以上に海はきれいで、遊ぶ時間もたっぷりあり、海を満喫できます。高確率で「ホヌ」に出会えるとガイドさんに教えていただき、水面を見ているとみんながいっせいに海を指さしていました（笑）今回は、家族で参加しましたが、ほっこりして帰ってきました。少しトイレ事情が悪いのが気になりますが、かなり楽しめますよ！

Four years ago, my husband and I had the opportunity to experience this. We had such a wonderful time that this time, I was very happy to participate in the tour with our family of five, and it was incredibly fun. The instructor was very supportive of our grandchildren, which we really appreciated. This is definitely a tour we want to go on whenever we come to Hawaii. Thank you very much.

今回、私達は夫婦は四年前に体験させて頂いております。とっても楽しい時間を過ごしましたので
今回は家族５人でツアー参加できた事、とっても嬉しかったですし、とっても楽しいかったです。

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＞

As expected from the number one beach in the United States, it exceeded Waikiki. さすが全米1位のビーチ、ワイキキ以上でした。

Reviewed by: しげまる

I visited Kailua Beach for the first time. I was truly impressed by its beauty, which is indeed ranked number one in the United States. I recommend renting a bike (beach cruiser) as an option to extend your trip to Lanikai Beach, which is right next to Kailua Beach. Lanikai Beach had mostly white visitors, giving me a sense of being abroad. Since I had some extra time, I rode my bike to downtown and enjoyed exploring like a local. The locals weren't wearing masks either. If you rent a bike, please be mindful of traffic rules and etiquette.

初めてカイルアビーチに行ってみました。
確かに全米1位の綺麗さに感動しました。
お薦めはカイルアビーチの隣にあるラニカイビーチまで自転車（ビーチクルーザー）をオプションで借りて足を伸ばすプランです。
ラニカイビーチはほとんど白人のみで、外国に来た感も味わえました。
時間が余ったので、ダウンタウンへ自転車で、気分はロコで散策していました。
地元の良方々もマスクはされていません。
自転車を借りる場合、交通ルールやマナーに注意してくださいね。

2.5-Hour Turtle Snorkel Sail Tour from Waikiki Beach - Cold Brew Coffee, Snacks & One Drink Included

Fantastic experience!!

Reviewed by: Rebecca Shaw

The captain and crew were engaging, fun and so very very kind. As a heavy traveler I don’t often put myself out there unless I KNOW I can do all of the activity. I was worried about being able to get out of the water after snorkeling. They never once made me feel like I was a pain, uncomfortable, or “less than” that is not a typical experience, so not only did they get my business for the snorkeling trip, I also went on their sunset cruise for the next two days. I will shout their praises to the rooftops!

I was able to swim with turtles! 亀と泳げました！

Reviewed by: アウフス

The water temperature was a bit low and it was cold, but I was glad to encounter a sea turtle. It was my first time snorkeling, and my 10-year-old son was also happy.
There are several staff members who speak Japanese, and they provide explanations in Japanese as well. About 80% of the tourists are Japanese.
There are no changing rooms, so we went in our swimsuits and wiped off our wet bodies before getting on the bus for the return trip. Some people were changing in the restroom, but there are only three stalls, so it gets crowded. It might be tough for those who are not good with the cold.

水温がやや低く、寒かったですが、ウミガメとも遭遇できて良かったです。初めてのシュノーケリングでしたが、10歳の息子も喜んでいました。
スタッフには、日本語を話せる人が数名居て、説明は日本語でもしてくれますし、8割は日本人観光客です。
着替える場所は無いので、水着着用で行き、帰りは濡れた体を拭いてそのままバスに乗りました。トイレで着替えている方も居ましたが、３つしか無いので混みます。寒いのが苦手な人にはつらいかもしれません。

ハナウマ湾シュノーケリング　ベテラン日本語ガイドがご案内する少人数制ツアー　貸切プランあり＜半日＞

Please share the beautiful photos on Facebook! きれいに撮れた写真もFacebookでShareしてくれる♪

Reviewed by: lunapy

Since it was early in the morning, the weather was clear, and the water was beautiful, I was able to see various types of fish. Four years ago, I encountered sea turtles and seals in the same spot, but unfortunately, I didn't see them this time.

However, the couple who guided us were great; the husband spoke Japanese well and pointed out interesting fish, saying things like, "Look, there's ●●!" which made it really enjoyable. At one point, when some participants got tired, the wife went back to the shore with them, and when I got too caught up in taking photos and was left behind, they noticed and helped me catch up. Their consideration for everyone to have a good time was very much appreciated.

During the car ride to and from the location, they shared a lot of information, which was really fun.

I tried to take photos with my Google Pixel 7 Pro in a waterproof case, but about 80% of them turned out blurry, so I regretted not bringing my GoPro. However, the guide uploaded some photos to Facebook, which I was able to download for free! I felt grateful to have beautiful photos capturing the scenes I experienced.

朝イチだったこともあり、晴れていて海の中もきれいで色んな種類の魚に会えました。4年前には同じ場所でウミガメやアザラシにも会えたのですが、今回は会えずでしたが・・。
でも、ご夫婦でガイドをされていて、旦那さんも日本語が上手で、面白い魚がいると「●●がいるよー」と声をかけてくれてとっても楽しめました。途中で疲れた方は奥様と一緒に先に岸に戻って・・といったことや、撮影に夢中になってみんなに置いてかれている私を見つけて引っ張って行ってくれたりと、参加者みんなが楽しめるような気遣いもとっても感じました。
行き帰りの車の中でもいろんな情報を教えてくれて、とっても楽しかったです。

Google Pixel 7Proを防水スマホケースに入れて撮影を試みましたが、8割がたピンボケしていたのでやっぱりGoPro持っていけばよかったと思いました。ただ、ガイドさんが撮影した写真をいくつかFacebookに上げてくれているので、それをDLさせていただきました（無料です）！自分がみた光景をきれいな写真に残せている気分でありがたかったです。

Really well organised activity with Kaimana Tours. Our driver Koa was excellent, providing lots of insights to the surroundings during our drive there. Pickup was on time, in a comfortable spacious van. We arrived and were first in line to get tickets which was simple and organised. The snorkeling gear was great, both sizing and quality for what we needed. I’d recommend going on the 6am pickup, as by the time we left at 11, it was getting really busy and there were not many places with shade. Kaimana offer umbrellas & chairs for hire too.

Equipment malfunction: The mystery of up to five people. 器具の不具合　最大５人の謎

Reviewed by: 鼻馬湾

I had confirmed with the instructor, but the snorkeling gear wasn't properly attached, and I panicked because I couldn't breathe on the surface. So, I had to retire midway.

There were two instructors, but it was stated that they could handle a maximum of five people, yet it felt like one instructor was managing almost ten people. It seems like there's some exaggeration in the description.

I felt uneasy entering the water without proper safety checks. This company seems to operate smoothly every time, but it feels like a miracle that no accidents have occurred.

I would like participants to join with a sense of personal responsibility.

インストラクターにも確認してもらっていたのだが、シュノーケルの器具がちゃんと付けられてなく海上で息が出来なくてパニックになった。なので途中でリタイアした。
インストラクターは2人だが、最大５人と記載があるがほぼ1人で10人をみている状況だった。記載に誇張があるように思える。
安全確認もほぼせずに海に入って不安があった。
この業者は毎回流れるように仕事をこなしているが、事故が起こっていないのが奇跡に思えた。

I was able to fully enjoy the ocean in Hawaii! hawaiiの海を満喫できました！

Reviewed by: ゆうちゃん

I participated in a tour with two friends. Due to the rainy season in October, the sandbar was deeper than I expected (about chest height), but we were able to fully enjoy the beautiful scenery of the white sandy area while playing with floaties. It was my first experience with snorkeling, and I wasn't very good at swimming, which made me anxious. However, wearing a life jacket made me feel safe, and there was a clear pre-lecture, practice time in shallow water, and several guides watching over us, so the support system was sufficient. It was scary to go deeper than I imagined (maybe due to the rainy season?), but while desperately keeping up, I was able to see coral and sea turtles, making it a valuable experience. We encountered sea turtles several times on the way to and from the tour, allowing us to feel the nature of Hawaii. The light snack of spam onigiri was also delicious. I thought the price was a bit high, but I believe it was worth it for the unique experience that only a tour can provide. I highly recommend it as it offers a valuable opportunity to connect with Hawaii's nature.

友人2人とツアーに参加しました。10月雨季だった影響もあり、サンドバーは思っていたより水深は深めでした（胸下あたり）が、浮き輪で遊びながら白い砂地の美しい景色を十分楽しめました。シュノーケリングは初体験で、あまり泳ぎも得意ではなく不安だったのですが、ライフジャケット装着で安心ですし、解りやすく事前にレクチャーあり、浅瀬での練習時間あり、ガイドさんが数名で見守ってくれるのでフォロー体制も十分でした。想像以上に深いところまでいくので怖かったですが（雨季の影響もあるかも？）、必死について行きながら、サンゴやウミガメも見れて貴重な体験ができ満足でした。行きも帰りも何度も船の上からウミガメに会う事ができ、ハワイの自然を感じる事ができました。軽食のスパムおにぎりも美味しかったです。少し値段はお高めかな？と思いましたが、ツアーだからこそ体験できる価値もあり参加してよかったと思っています。ハワイの自然に触れる貴重な体験ができるので、絶対おすすめです。

This was my third time participating. I usually can't see the sandbar. If it's waist-deep, that's better. During the accompanying snorkeling, I was able to see fish, corals, and turtles. The stand-up paddleboarding felt free with two people sharing one board, and I enjoyed it. This time, the weather was nice and not cold, but last time the bus was cold and it was quite uncomfortable. A dry towel and something to wear over are essentials.

3度目の参加でした。いつも基本的にはサンドバーは拝めません。腰丈ならましな方です。付随するシュノーケリングで魚とサンゴ、カメも見れました。SUPは二人ひとつで自由な感じ、楽しめました。今回は天気が良く寒く無かったですが、前回はバスが寒くて辟易としました。乾いたタオルと羽織るものが必需品です。

The meeting place is at the location on Google Maps listed on this site, where you should look for the boat labeled "MOANA." The meeting time is 7:30, and we boarded around 8:00. The staff called out to us near the boat around that time. I highly recommend it!

I was able to get my revenge. リベンジ出来ました

Reviewed by: hiko

Seven years ago, my wife and I participated, but just a week before, I fractured my shoulder bone, so I couldn't join the snorkeling or SUP activities. I was envious watching my wife challenge SUP for the first time and quickly stand up.

This time, I was in perfect health and was able to fully enjoy snorkeling and SUP with my wife, which had been my long-held wish.

Seven years ago, there were few SUP boards available, and we couldn't ride much due to waiting in line, but now there are plenty, allowing us to play freely without waiting.

During snorkeling, I was deeply moved to quietly watch a sea turtle come right up to me.

With the end of COVID, there were more Japanese participants. Over 80% of the bus and boat passengers were Japanese, but there were no Japanese-speaking staff. The entire experience was conducted in English, and I think both the clientele and staff have changed since seven years ago.

Seven years ago, before getting on the return bus, I had time to change into dry clothes in the restroom, so I came prepared to change, but everyone was waiting on the bus in their wet swimsuits, and I felt bad about that.

One more disappointing thing was that previously, a group photo of all participants, including staff, was taken at the sandbar and could be purchased online, but that service has been discontinued. It would be great if they could bring that back, as it makes for wonderful memories.

７年前に一度夫婦で参加しましたが、その１週間前に私が肩の骨を骨折してしまい、シュノーケリングもSUPも参加出来ずに終わりました。
妻がSUPのみチャレンジし、初めてなのに直ぐに立ち上がっているのを見て羨ましく思っていました。

今回は万全の体調で参加出来、念願のシュノーケリングもSUPも夫婦で思いっきり楽しむ事が出来ました。

７年前は遊べるSUPの数が少なく、順番待ちであまり乗れませんでしたが、現在は数も十分確保されており、順番待ち無く心置き無く遊ぶ事が出来ました。

シュノーケリングでも、目の前まで寄って来たホヌを静かに見る事が出来て、大変感動しました。

コロナが収束して日本人の参加者も増えて居ました。
乗って来たバスもボートも８割以上が日本人でしたが、日本語対応のスタッフが居ませんでした。
終始英語のみの進行で、７年前と客層もスタッフも変わっていたんだと思います。

７年前は帰りのバスに乗る前に、トイレで乾いた服に着替える時間があったので、そのつもりで着替えて来たら、皆濡れた水着のままバスに乗って待っており、申し訳ない事をしてしまいました。

あと一つだけ残念だったのは、以前はスタッフも含めた参加者全員のサンドバーでの集合写真を撮って、netで購入出来たのですが、その様なサービスが無くなっっていた事です。
良い思い出になるので、またやってくれると良いですね。

I participated with my daughter. The staff who provided explanations in Japanese before we set sail and those who guided us on the boat were all very kind, making the experience enjoyable from start to finish.

They let us know when we approached the area known as Heart Reef and when the honu appeared.

We played with SUP and other activities in the first half, followed by snorkeling in the second half. There were SUP boards, floaties, and water guns, and we had 45 minutes of fun. Along the way, the staff came around to each participant to take photos, which was a delightful service.

For snorkeling, those who couldn't swim were given something like a float to hold onto, and the staff pulled them along. Even if you can't swim, you can participate safely as long as you wear a life jacket, and the staff stays with you the whole time.

I was moved to swim with the honu.

ハナウマ湾シュノーケリング　ベテラン日本語ガイドがご案内する少人数制ツアー　貸切プランあり＜半日＞

I was able to swim with sea turtles. ウミガメと泳げました

Reviewed by: みんげい

Positive points:
- I was able to get a response from Veltra via email before making a reservation.
- Communication in Japanese was completely fine, so it’s not a problem if you can't speak English at all.
- The instructor was very friendly.
- The waiting time for entry was shorter than that of other general customers.
- They provide careful instruction even for those with no snorkeling experience.
- Valuables are kept in a box with a lock, so it feels safe.
- They are well-acquainted with spots where sea turtles can be found, so there’s a high chance of encountering them (I actually encountered one).
- You can save underwater photos from Facebook.
- I requested a wetsuit from Veltra just before the event, and they were able to accommodate me (I participated in early October in the morning, and since the seawater is cold, I think it's better for those who are sensitive to cold to borrow one).
- Even on the day of the event, if you tell the instructor, you can borrow a wetsuit.

Negative points:
- In our case, there was nothing in particular.

Cautions:
- It goes without saying, but punctuality is important, so being late is not accepted (they will wait for a few minutes).
- There is no guidance to the restroom on the way back, so it's better to go at the timing of changing clothes.
- The valuables box is not very large, so it’s better to keep your items compact.

良かった点
・ベルトラさんに予約開始前にメールで問い合わせたところ対応していただけたこと
・日本語が完全に通じるので英語は全く話せなくても問題がない
・インストラクターの方がとてもフレンドリー
・入場の待ち時間が他の一般客よりも少ない
・シュノーケリングの経験がなくても丁寧に教えてくれる
・貴重品はボックスに入れて鍵をかけてくれるので安心
・ウミガメがいるスポットを熟知しているので高い確率で遭遇できる(実際に遭遇できました)
・水中の写真をFacebookから保存できる
・直前にベルトラさんにウェットスーツを依頼したが対応していただけた(10月初旬午前に参加したが、海水は冷たいので寒がりな方は借りた方がいいかなと思います)
・当日でもインストラクターの方に言えばウェットスーツを借りられた

悪かった点
私たちの場合は特に何もありませんでした

注意点
・当たり前ですが、時間厳守なので遅刻は認められません(数分なら待ってくれてます)
・帰りはトイレの案内がないので、着替えのタイミングで行った方がいいです
・貴重品のボックスはそれほど大きくないので、コンパクトにまとめられるようにしておいた方がいいです

I participated with my husband, daughter, and middle school grandson. The sandbar wasn't at low tide, but it felt safe in the shallow water. I wanted to try stand-up paddleboarding (SUP) too, so we all enjoyed it as a family. Later, my husband and I watched our daughter and grandson enjoy snorkeling from the boat, and it was so much fun! They were thrilled to see many turtles.

Above all, I was very satisfied with the staff member who spoke Japanese; she explained everything clearly and interestingly. My daughter and grandson both said they want to do it again! Thank you for all your help.

主人と娘と中学生の孫と参加しました。サンドバーは干潮ではなかったけど、浅瀬で安心感がありました。SUPは私もやってみたかったので家族で楽しみました。その後シュノーケルは私と主人は船から娘と孫が楽しんでいるのを見てましたが、とっても楽しかった！亀をたくさん見れたと大喜びでした。
何より日本語の話せる女性のスタッフが分かりやすく面白く色々話をしてくれとても満足でした。
またやりたい！と娘も孫も言ってます。
色々お世話になりました。

During snorkeling, we were able to see many turtles up close. The staff kindly taught my wife, who is not a strong swimmer, and they also kept a watchful eye on her, which made us feel safe. Above all, both the captain and the staff spoke Japanese well, and there were also Japanese staff members, which added to our sense of security. This is a recommended activity if you visit Hawaii. However, due to the tides, it's not guaranteed that sandbars will appear as shown in the promotional photos, so you might need to be a little cautious about that.

シュノーケリングでは、沢山の亀が近くで見られました。泳ぎの苦手な妻にも親切に教えてくれて、また、安全を見守ってくれているので安心です。何より、キャプテンもスタッフも日本語が上手な上に日本人スタッフもいて、安心度合いが違います。ハワイに行ったらオススメのアクティビティです。ただし、潮の満ち引きの関係もあるのでイメージ写真の様なサンドバーが現れるとは限りませんのでその辺は少し注意が必要かもしれません。
