I was relieved that they arrived on time for the early morning pickup. Although the conversation was only in English, I somehow understood the nuances and was able to spend my time without anxiety. Hanauma Bay was beautiful as always after such a long time.

It gets quite cold when you come out of the sea, so it's a good idea to have a long-sleeved cover-up. The sun is also very strong, so please be careful about that as well. Please bring a leisure sheet

Our guide Dan was EXCELLENT!!!!!! There were only 4 of us in this group so Dan was very conscientious of how we were doing, making sure we saw a huge varied fish and even a turtle. Dan was an EXPERT and knew Hanauma Bay like the back of his hand. It was a once in a lifetime experience.

While we have been to Hawaii a few times this was our first time exploring Hanauma Bay. We didn’t know what to expect but our guide made the adventure far easier than trying to tour this spot on our own. Our guide had all the snorkeling gear, wet suits if needed, snacks available, and took photos for us. We had a young 7 year old child up to elderly and even though some stayed in the water for just a little while our guide helped us navigate the waters or assisted us walking back to our spot on the grass. It was very busy there, and we unfortunately didn’t get to see sea turtles so I wouldn’t go with very high expectations of that. However the bay is just beautiful itself and there are a good amount of fish we saw which was still fun. If you are new to snorkeling and want to see this area I would recommend taking the guided tour like this and then venturing on your own in the future if you are comfortable.
They had all the gear from wet suits to flippers and a way to lock up a few items.

The ocean was as beautiful as I had researched beforehand. I was wondering if Lanikai might be a bit far to walk to, but as I enjoyed the scenery while walking along the sandy beach of Kailua, I didn't feel the distance at all. I was truly healed by the stunning ocean. Even looking at the photos later, it's clear how much more beautiful it is compared to Waikiki. The fine sand also felt amazing. Since my group was the only one booked for that day, I appreciate the staff for being flexible with us. I took a burger to go with my lunch voucher, and it was ready in about five minutes.
事前に調べていた通りの海の綺麗さでした。ラニカイは歩いて行くにはちょっと遠いかな?と考えていましたが、カイルアビーチの砂浜を景色を楽しみながら歩けば、遠さは感じませんでした。とにかく美しい海に癒されました。後から写真を見ても、ワイキキに比べ美しいのがよくわかります。細かい砂も触感が最高でした。その日の予約が私のグループだけだったので、スタッフさんに柔軟に対応していただき感謝しています。
昼食券でバーガーをテイクアウトし、持っていきました。バーガーは5分ほどで作ってもらえました。
Even though it was five hours, it went by in a flash. I think it's important to do some research and think about where and what you want to do.
5時間とはいえ、あっという間でした。下調べし、どこで何をしたいか、考えておくのが重要だと思います。

Hanauma Bay has become reservation-only after COVID, and while it's great to have guaranteed entry, I think the early morning schedule and the rental/transportation prices are high. Is there a way to make it cheaper if you only need transportation without the rental? (Entry is possible if you wait in line, so it might be possible to go by Uber, but it could be difficult to enter on the day without a guide from a service.)
ハナウマ湾がコロナ後予約制になり、個人での予約が難しい中、確実に入れるのはありがたいが、朝が早くレンタル/送迎の値段としては高いと思う。レンタル不要で送迎のみでもっと安くならないか?(入場は並べば良いので、自分でウーバーで行く事も可能かもだが、業者同行がないと当日入場は難しいかも?)

The guides were very kind, cheerful, and lively, and the tour itself was enjoyable!
However, the reason I gave it 4 stars is that I wish I could have enjoyed snorkeling a bit more. About 10 years ago, when I participated in a snorkeling tour in Hawaii, I was amazed to see many colorful fish up close under the guidance. But this time, the dolphins, turtles, and fish were all at a distance... It was disappointing because I couldn't distinguish their colors.
Points to note:
- Even with two long-sleeved rash guards, it was still cold...! It would be good to prepare long pants or consider a wetsuit.
- I read that I should bring just enough money to buy a little food, so I went empty-handed, but at the end, there was a tipping situation, which made it really awkward. Including the tip, it has definitely become much more expensive compared to 10 years ago…!
- For those who are prone to motion sickness, taking motion sickness medication is a must. There were kids sitting there looking unwell the whole time, and it was sad to see.
ガイドの皆さんとても優しくて明るくてノリノリで、ツアー自体は楽しかったです!!
ただ、⭐︎4にした理由は、もう少しシュノーケリングを楽しめたらよかったなぁと思ったからです。
10年前くらいにハワイでシュノーケリングツアーに参加した時は、案内のもとたくさんのカラフルなお魚を間近に見られて感動したものです。
だけど今回はイルカもカメもお魚も遠目で…
色は判別できない距離感だったので残念に思ってしまいました。
注意点
・上は長袖ラッシュガード2枚重ねても寒かったです…!下も長いものを用意するとか、ウェットスーツおすすめ。
・持ち物のお金は少し食べ物が買えるくらいと書いてあったので手ぶらで行ったら、最後チップを払う流れになったのですごく気まずかったです。
チップ含めると、10年前よりかなり高くなりましたよね…!
・酔いやすい人は酔い止め必須です。ずっと気分悪そうに座ってる子達がいて可哀想でした。
Thank you very much for participating in the Dolphin & You tour. We also appreciate you taking the time to provide us with your detailed feedback.
We are glad to hear that you enjoyed the tour itself, and your kind words for our guide staff are truly encouraging! Thank you very much.
On the other hand, we are disappointed that you were unable to see dolphins and turtles up close while snorkeling. Encounters with wild animals are greatly influenced by natural conditions, which can result in varying distances and visibility from day to day. We will continue to make efforts as a team to provide experiences that satisfy everyone.
Thank you also for your advice regarding cold weather measures, tips, and motion sickness remedies. We will incorporate this into our future guidance.
We would be delighted if you consider joining our tour again when you visit Hawaii. We sincerely look forward to the day we can meet you again, Aarinrin.

The tide was high, so it was hard to fully enjoy the sandbar, but I had a great time playing with activities and meeting sea turtles. There were floaties prepared for small children who can't snorkel, as well as for adults, so even those who aren't good swimmers will be fine.
潮位が高く、サンドバーは堪能できたとはいいがたいですが、アクティビティで遊んだりウミガメに会えたり、とても楽しかったです。
シュノーケルができない、小さな子供用の浮き輪や大人用にも浮具が準備されていたので、泳ぎが苦手でも大丈夫です。
If you definitely want to see the sandbar, I recommend checking the tide levels on the day and making a reservation.

I previously participated in a similar tour in the Maldives, and while it might have been the timing, I had a hard time seeing sea turtles. However, on this tour in late March, I was able to see over 10 sea turtles. In fact, I found two before boarding the boat at the port.
The crew was also former residents of Japan and spoke fluent Japanese, which surprised me with how fluent they were. They were all very nice, and even my shy daughter seemed to open up to them.
Thank you for providing an experience that allowed my children to snorkel with sea turtles and tropical fish, and play at the sandbar—an experience we couldn't have in Japan.

I heard that the ocean is more beautiful than Waikiki Beach, so I decided to join. It was tough to wake up early and participate, but Hanauma Bay was more stunning than I imagined. I also think there are more fish to see compared to Waikiki Beach. I wasn't confident in my swimming skills, but I enjoyed the wide area where I could stand in shallow water.
ワイキキビーチよりも海が綺麗との話を聞き参加しました。早朝に起床し参加するのは大変でしたが、ハナウマ湾は想像以上に絶景でした。また、見ることのできる魚の数もワイキキビーチより多いと思います。私は泳ぎに自信がありませんでしたが、足のつく浅いところの範囲も広く楽しめました。
Since there is a distance from where you can buy water and food to the beach, I think it's better to buy them in advance and take them with you.

It was my first time snorkelling, and the experience was fantastic! The equipment was clean, well-maintained, and easy to use. If you're not comfortable swimming in the ocean like me, I highly recommend renting a life vest for extra confidence.
From the start, everything was well-organized. The shuttle bus driver was friendly and informative, sharing insights about Oahu’s geography, and pointing out tourist attractions and great restaurants along the way. He even handed out pictures of ocean creatures we might spot, which made the ride even more exciting!
Overall, a great experience, I’d definitely recommend it!

I participated in a meeting that started in the afternoon around December 20th. There were two groups of Japanese people, including us, and the rest were other Asian individuals. The person who spoke Japanese was wonderful, so it wasn't a problem that we couldn't speak English. The weather was perfect for December, with no wind, and we could see the clear sea! After playing with the SUP and ball for about an hour, we all went snorkeling together. We saw about five sea turtles, and it was difficult not to get too close because we saw so many! The guides were fantastic!

There are only the restrooms at the dock to change, so it's good to plan ahead. The wind from the boat was clear, so it wasn't cold even in short sleeves.
着替える場所が船着場のトイレくらいしかないので、事前に考えていくと良いです。
船の風は晴れていたので、半袖でも寒くなかったです。

I was able to see sea turtles from the boat, but it was difficult to swim with them as I had imagined. Since all the explanations were in English, I could enjoy the exotic atmosphere, but there were parts I didn't fully understand, which made me a bit anxious. The weather was nice, but perhaps because it was the rainy season, the sea was murky, and I couldn't see down to the bottom. Still, I think it was a valuable experience.
船の上からウミガメを見ることができたのですが、想像していた一緒に泳ぐことは難しかったです。説明は全て英語のため、異国気分を味わうことは出来ましたが、全て理解できないので不安な部分はありました。天気はよかったのですが、雨季だからか海が濁っていて、下まで見ることが出来ませんでした。それでも貴重な経験ができたと思います。

I had given up on making a reservation through the official booking site, but then I found this tour and signed up. Since I didn't have a rental car, it was really helpful that they provided transportation to the hotel. The rental equipment was properly arranged, and the driver was a fun person, which was great.
公式予約サイトで予約が取れなかったので諦めていたところ、こちらのツアーを見つけて申し込みました。
レンタカーしていなかったので、ホテルに送迎してもらえて本当に助かりました。
レンタル道具もキチンとあり、ドライバーさんも楽しい方で良かったです。

The wind felt nice, and the sea was very beautiful, but the main dolphin watching only allowed us to see them small and far away. The canoe group from another tour got much closer. I was looking forward to this, so it was a bit disappointing. The time spent watching dolphins was short, and most of the time was spent snorkeling, but since we were swimming in deep water, there were hardly any fish, so it felt like there wasn't much point in swimming on a tour.
The staff were very cheerful and wonderful, and the final "Harasho" was fun. However, I ordered a product from a Japanese staff member on the bus, but when I realized I hadn't received it after getting on the boat, I informed them. They told me to wait a bit because it was shooting time, and when it seemed like they weren't in a hurry to go get it, they later asked how I would like to pay. I thought, "Well, I've already bought it..." The impression I got was that the Japanese staff were kind to those who ordered commemorative photos, but...
風は気持ち良かったし、海ももっても綺麗でしたが、メインのイルカウォッチングは遠くに小さく見えるだけ、別のツアーのカヌーの方達はとっても近くまで行っていました。
楽しみにして行ったので、少し残念でした。
イルカを見る時間も短く、ほとんどの時間がシュノーケリングでしたが、深いところで泳ぐので、魚もほとんどいなくて、わざわざツアーで泳ぐ必要はなかったなといった感じでした。
スタッフの皆さんはとっても明るくて素敵で、最後のハラショーも楽しかったです。
ただ、バスで日本人スタッフの方に商品を注文したのですが、船にのってから受け取るはずがもらっていないことに途中で気づいて伝えると、撮影時間だということもありちょっと待ってくださいといわれ、急いで撮りに行く気配がないとおもったら、ひと段落ついてからお支払いはどうしますか?と、
いやもう買ってますけど、、となりました。
日本人スタッフの方は、記念撮影を注文した方には親切だけど、、という印象でした
