I wanted to swim with dolphins, so I joined the Dolphin & You tour.
On the day of the tour, I arrived at the hotel meeting point at 4:40 AM. The bus to the port was very clean.
During the bus ride, there were explanations in Japanese about the rental of wetsuits ($10 per person), photo services (the combined cost for photos and videos was around $100), and the price for motion sickness wristbands (I can't remember how much that was), as well as safety tips for when we encountered dolphins. Since we had experienced extreme cold on the previous day's tour, we decided to rent wetsuits and also signed up for the photo and video package as a special memory. By the way, the water temperature was low, and even with the wetsuits, it was still cold, so I recommend renting a wetsuit, bringing a large towel, and if possible, bringing a change of clothes during this season! Those who signed up for photos received silicone bands to prioritize photo opportunities underwater.
Upon arriving at the port, we stopped by the restroom, and then wetsuits (only for those who signed up) and snorkeling gear were distributed before boarding a small boat. When we participated, there were about 30 participants, so the boat was full.
We headed to the first spot where we could encounter dolphins, and while snorkeling, we first saw a seal. This seal is said to be very rare, with only about 1,200 individuals living in the area, so we were very lucky to see it. We were able to snorkel to our heart's content while watching many dolphins swimming right in front of us and jumping a little further away at two different spots.
After that, we moved to a different location where we played with snorkeling, kayaking, stand-up paddleboarding, and a slide from the boat, and we had cheeseburgers and potato chips. Then, we watched a hula dance, received tattoo stickers, and returned to the port, where we took a final group photo with the staff and all participants before heading back to the hotel by bus.
I was able to see many dolphins, and all the staff were friendly, making it a very satisfying tour!
イルカと泳いでみたいと思い、ドルフィン&ユーのツアーに参加しました。
当日は、午前4時40分にホテルの集合場所へ。港へ向かうバスはとてもきれいなバスでした。
バスの中では日本語で、ウェットスーツの貸し出し(1人10ドル)や、写真の案内(写真と動画は合わせて、たしか100ドル)、酔い止めのリストバンドの案内(いくらだったかな?)、イルカに出会ったときの注意点などの説明がありました。
私たちは、前日のツアーで死ぬほど寒い思いをしたので、ウェットスーツを、また、せっかくの記念にと、写真と動画を申し込みました。ちなみに、実際水温が低くウェットスーツを来ていても寒かったので、この時期はウェットスーツを借りること、大きめのバスタオルを持っていくこと、できれば着替えも持っていくことをおすすめします!
写真を申し込んだ人には、水中で優先的に写真を撮るためということで、シリコンバンドが配られました。
港に着くと、トイレに寄り、その後ウェットスーツ(もちろん申し込んだ人のみ)とシュノーケリンググッズが配られ、小型の船に乗り込みます。私たちが参加した時は、30人ぐらいの参加者がいたので、船は満員でした。
最初のイルカと出会えるスポットへ行き、シュノーケリングをしていると、まずアザラシを見ることができました。そのアザラシは、1200頭ほどしか生息しない、とても希少なアザラシだそうで、見ることができてとてもラッキーでした。
また、たくさんのイルカが目の前を泳いだり、少し離れたところでジャンプしていたりと、2か所のスポットで思う存分イルカを見ながらシュノーケリングすることができました。
その後、違うスポットに場所を移し、シュノーケリングやカヤック、スタンドアップパドル、船からの滑り台で遊び、チーズバーガーとポテトチップスを食べました。
そしで、フラダンスを見たり、タトゥーシールをもらったりしながら、港へと戻り、最後にスタッフの方や参加者全員で写真を撮ってから、バスでホテルへと戻りました。
たくさんのイルカに会うことができましたし、スタッフの方もみなさんフレンドリーで大満足のツアーでした!!

Watching the dolphins move, I participated without any expectations and was pleasantly surprised to see them swimming slowly. Moreover, since it was in shallow waters, I felt very lucky.
At the turtle spot, the turtles were hiding among the rocks on the sea floor, and I regretted not taking off my wetsuit to get in. For those who can dive deeper, I recommend wearing a rash guard or similar for warmth and definitely taking off the wetsuit.
イルカの移動を見る感じだと、期待しないで参加したら、意外にゆっくり泳いでいるのが見れ、しかも浅瀬だったので、とてもラッキーでした。
亀のポイントでは、亀が海底の岩場に隠れていたので、ウェットスーツを脱いで入れば良かったと後悔しました。深く潜れる人はラッシュなどを来て寒さ対策をして、是非ウェットスーツを脱ぐ事をお勧めします。

The guides were very kind, and the explanations were very easy to understand. I was able to see sea turtles clearly, so I was very satisfied! However, due to the timing of my visit, there were no completely exposed sandy areas, and there was a problem with the meeting point where I was almost forgotten, which nearly caused me to miss the shuttle bus.
ガイドのみなさん、とても親切で、解説もとてもわかりやすかったです。ウミガメもしっかり観れたのでここは大満足!ただ、訪れたタイミングの問題で、完全に砂場が出ている場所がなかったのと、待ち合わせ場所で忘れられてしまい、あやうく乗り合いバスに乗れなくなりそうになった誘導の問題があった点が残念。
Aloha! This is Captain Bruce's Paradise of the Sea Tour. Thank you very much for participating in the tour the other day.
I am truly glad to hear that you were able to encounter the lucky sea turtle. I sincerely apologize for any concerns caused regarding the bus on that day.

My first time in Hawaii,
I participated with my husband, feeling excited.
The Japanese-speaking guide, the beautiful sunrise, the clear ocean,
wild dolphins, sea turtles, and rays.
Everything became the best memory.
The crew was all very friendly,
and you could feel the teamwork.
I recommend taking motion sickness medication just in case, even for those who usually don’t get seasick!
There was someone who looked like they were struggling in a sitting position on the boat, saying, "I’ve never been seasick before..." with teary eyes. Better safe than sorry!
After all, we’re dealing with wild dolphins.
Of course, there are times when you might not see them.
However, no tour guarantees that you will see wild dolphins.
It seemed like it was a tough day for us too,
and we didn’t see them much, but we still had a great time otherwise, so I was very satisfied.
The guide, Tairiku, was really funny!
I will definitely participate again when I go to Hawaii.
初めてのハワイ、
ドキドキしながら夫婦で参加しました。
日本語でのガイド、綺麗な朝日、透き通る海、
野生のイルカとウミガメにエイ。
何をとっても最高の思い出になりました。
クルーの方もみんなとっても仲良し、
チームワークを感じます。
「いつも、船酔いしないから大丈夫」という人でも念のため酔い止めを飲む事をオススメします!
キラキラの海の中、終始、船の中で辛そうに体育座りをしている人が「酔った事なかったのに…」と涙目でした。念には念を!
相手は野生のイルカです。
もちろん会えない時もあります。
ですがどこのツアーも野生のイルカに会える事を確約するツアーではないです。
私達の時も難しい日だったらしく
あまり会えませんでしたがそれ以外でも楽しませてもらえたので大満足です。
ガイドのタイリクさんとっても面白い方でした!

Thank you for joining our snorkeling tour. Although it's always summer in Hawaii, the water temperature has been dropping recently, so many participants have been very pleased with the wetsuit rentals. It was a bit of a rough day with higher waves, but you all did very well. Unfortunately, we didn't see any sea turtles, but I believe you got to see a large ulua (giant trevally). We hope to show you sea turtles on your next visit to Hawaii, so please come back for a rematch! Also, the photos taken during snorkeling are available on the Blue Hawaii Divers Facebook page, so feel free to download any you would like from there. Thank you very much, and take care! Mahalo!

In late November, the water temperature was a bit low, so I rented a wetsuit. Since it was morning, I think I wouldn't have enjoyed it if I hadn't worn one (^_^;) The guide, who spoke fluent Japanese, and the other staff members were all bright and friendly.
After heading out to sea for a while, we were able to encounter a lot of dolphins right away! We watched quietly without making any noise to avoid startling them. There was a briefing beforehand about the precautions when encountering dolphins and turtles. I thought it was wonderful that they showed consideration for the wildlife. We also saw about 3 or 4 turtles and around 4 rays. Plus, we even saw a double rainbow!ヽ(^0^)ノ
After that, we played on the slide from the boat and kayaked, then enjoyed hamburgers to wrap up the tour. I was just a bit hungry, so it was appreciated. Additionally, a group photo of everyone was sent via email, which I thought was a nice service.
The highlight of this tour is not just seeing dolphins from the boat, but being able to see wild dolphins up close! My first trip to Hawaii turned out to be a wonderful experience (*^o^*). I would definitely recommend it to my friends.
11月後半で、水温は少し低めなので、ウェットスーツをレンタルしました。朝ということもあり、しなかったら寒くて楽しめなかったと思います(^_^;)
流暢な日本語を話すガイドさんをはじめ、他のスタッフの方も明るく親切な方ばかりでした。
沖の方に出てしばらくするとすぐにたくさんのイルカに出会う事ができました!驚かさないよう、音をたてずにじーっと見ました。
事前に、イルカとカメに出会った時の注意事項の説明がありました。野生の生き物に対する配慮もあり、素晴らしい思いました。
そして、カメも3、4匹、エイも4匹ほど見ることが出来ました。あと、ダブルレインボーもヽ(^0^)ノ
その後、船からの滑り台やカヤックなどで遊んで、ハンバーガーをいただきツアー終了。ちょうど小腹がすいていたので有り難かったです。
あと、全員の集合写真がメールで送られてきていて、それも良いサービスだなと思いました。
船からイルカを見るのではなく、野生のイルカを間近に見れるのがこのツアーのポイントですね!
初ハワイ、素敵な旅行になりました(*^o^*)

Thank you for joining the tour with Blue Hawaii Divers. Recently, Hawaii has been experiencing strong winds, which have created some wave conditions. However, it’s during rougher conditions that sea turtles tend to come closer in, increasing your chances of seeing them!

If you’re interested, feel free to try out experience diving as well. Thank you! Mahalo!!

Last year, I came to meet dolphins for the first time and was moved to see a pod of dozens of them. When I decided to go to Hawaii this year, I immediately thought I absolutely wanted to go again and planned my schedule accordingly for the day.
The weather was great, the sea was calm, and we all expressed our gratitude to the ocean as the boat headed to Makua Beach, where we spotted dolphins jumping in the distance! Following our guide, we entered the water, and dozens of dolphins came to greet us. Among them were baby dolphins, and although I felt a bit torn not to stress them out, we moved on to the next beach for snorkeling, paddleboarding, kayaking, and enjoying the slide and trampoline.
For lunch, the captain grilled hamburgers on the boat, which were delicious. After enjoying a leisurely meal, our guide Saki introduced everyone again, and we all danced together. Even on the way back to the harbor, the staff entertained us with ukulele and hula, which I found impressive. Everyone enjoyed the tour with smiles and without getting bored.
It seems that swimming with dolphins is becoming more challenging, and I hope it continues in the future. I want to participate again next time, and I hope to capture the expressions of the dolphins.

This was my first time participating in a tour alone. I was very anxious, but swimming with dolphins had been a dream of mine for many years, so I decided to go for it!

Since I was participating alone, not being able to take photos and not having someone to talk to were drawbacks, but the tour guide, who was also a photographer, came over multiple times to take pictures and chat with me. Additionally, the other participants were very kind, making it a fun experience!
Also, it seemed there were many cancellations, so instead of the usual 40 people, there were only 9 of us, which was fantastic!
I can't wait to return home and look at the photos!

I woke up early in the morning. When I arrived at the meeting place, the energetic staff welcomed us. We took a bus to the harbor. I think a wetsuit is necessary for this time of year, as everyone who participated borrowed one. I wanted the data, so I purchased it for about $40. I recommend bringing at least a little money. From the harbor, we boarded a boat and set off on a dolphin search. During the boat ride, we encountered a pod of dolphins, which was amazing. Following the captain's instructions, we arrived at the snorkeling point. Everyone gathered together to snorkel. It was thrilling to see dolphins and sea turtles up close. However, the cold was more than I expected, and the rocking of the boat when getting back on caused unexpected seasickness. I dove twice, but for the third time, I waited on the boat. A few others also experienced seasickness. It was really disappointing. If I hadn't gotten seasick, I could have enjoyed the sea a bit more. I could have gone on the waterslide too... The staff were all nice. Many on the bus were fast asleep. It's a pity that the data I received didn't have many photos from snorkeling. I guess you have to actively ask for them to get good shots. This turned out to be a good memory, though. If only I hadn't gotten seasick...!!!!
朝は早起きでした。集合場所で待っていれば威勢の良いスタッフがお迎えに。バスに乗り、船場へ。ウェットスーツは時期的に必要だと思います。参加されていた方皆さんが借りていました。データが欲しかったのでたしか$40で購入。お金は最低限持って行った方がいいと思います。船場から船に乗り、イルカ探しの旅へ。船で移動中にも数頭のイルカの群れと遭遇で感動。キャプテンの指示でポイントに到着。ゲストみんなで固まってシュノーケル。イルカとウミガメをまじかに見れて感動。ただ、思った以上の寒さとシュノーケルから船に上がる時の揺れでまさかの船酔い。2回ダイブしましたが、3回目は船の上で待ってました。自分以外にも数人船酔いしてました。もう本当にショックでした。船酔いしなければもうちょっと海で遊べたのに。ウォータースライダーも出来たのに・・・。スタッフは皆さん良い人でした。かなりのバスは皆さん爆睡。もらったデータはシュノーケルでの写真があまりなかったのは残念。たぶん積極的に声をかけていかないと撮ってくれません。これはこれで良い思い出になったのか。
船酔いしなければ・・・!!!!

This is my second time participating in a tour where you can see dolphins up close! I was thrilled to see the dolphins swimming nearby again. The spam onigiri and cheese for lunch were delicious as well. If you are prone to seasickness, taking motion sickness medication is a must.
イルカを間近で見る事が出来るツアーで2回目の参加です!やはりイルカが近くを泳いでくれて感激でした。お昼のスパムおにぎり、チーズもおいしかったです。

I was anxious about my first trip to Hawaii, but the instructors spoke Japanese and, above all, they taught us with great care, making it a fulfilling experience. I definitely want to sign up here again next time.
初めてのハワイで不安でしたが、日本語が話せるイントラクターの方々でしたし、そしてなにより丁寧に教えてくださり、充実した時間となりました。次も是非こちらで申し込みたいと思いました。

It was quite difficult to find dolphins, but sitting at the front of the boat and searching for them felt like an attraction, and it was fun! Along the way, we were able to see flying fish gliding about 100 meters horizontally! When we finally found the dolphins and jumped into the sea to swim with them, it was exhilarating! There was also a sea turtle floating right next to us, so we got to swim with the turtle too. I learned a lot about the origins of Oahu and had a really great time!
なかなかイルカが見つからなかったのですが、アトラクション気分で船の先端に座ってのイルカ探しも楽しかったです♩
途中100mくらいを水平に飛ぶトビウオを見ることもできました!
イルカが見つかって、海に飛び込んで、一緒に泳げた時は大興奮!
すぐ側にただようウミガメがいたので、ウミガメとも一緒に泳げました♡
オアフの起源など、色々教えていただき、本当に楽しかったです^ ^

I could only see the dolphins for a moment. The Japanese guide was quite unique (not very friendly). Considering this content, I wonder if the price is high...
イルカは一瞬はしか見られなかった。日本人ガイドが独特な方でした(親切ではない)

Based on the experience information, I chose this tour and was very satisfied as well. The sense of security was different compared to when I participated in an English-only tour! I was able to focus on snorkeling. I also appreciated the availability of wetsuit rentals on the day.
体験談情報から、このツアーを選び、同じく大満足でした。
英語のみのツアーに参加した時と安心感が違います!シュノーケルに集中できました。
ウエットスーツの当日貸し対応もありがたかったです。
Dear Yashiko, thank you for participating in the Blue Hawaii Divers tour. We are really glad to hear that you enjoyed it!
Around late October, the water temperature at Hanauma has started to drop a bit. Recently, we have seen an increase in requests for wetsuits, so we are bringing a few extra suits for rental on the day. However, if you want to ensure you get one, please make a reservation in advance and let us know your height and weight so we can prepare the right size for you.
Wetsuits are highly recommended during the cold winter months! We all look forward to your repeat visit when you come back to Hawaii.
Thank you. Mahalo!!
やしこ様、この度はブルーハワイダイバースのツアーにご参加いただき、ありがとうございます。とても楽しんでいただけたようで、本当に良かったです!!
10月後半あたりからハナウマの水温もちょっと下がってきています。最近はウェットスーツのご希望が増えてきていますので、当日レンタルも出来るように少し多めにスーツを持って行っております。ですが、確実に借りたい場合には事前にご予約いただき、身長と体重を教えていただければ丁度良いサイズをご用意させていただきます。
冬の寒い時期にはウェットスーツはおすすめですよ!!
またハワイにお越しの際にはぜひリピートしていただけたらとスタッフ一同、楽しみにお待ちしています。
ありがとうございました。Mahalo!!

I found it a bit unpleasant to be talked to and pushed while feeling sleepy in the morning, but I was satisfied with the enthusiasm for seeing dolphins and actually getting to see them! It would have been better if there were fewer people, though. It felt quite crowded.

Swimming with dolphins has always been my dream, and I was finally able to go to Dolphin University this time!! The weather was perfect, and even though I thought it would be cold in October, I was totally fine without a wetsuit! I was so excited on the bus, and when we finally got to the ocean… right after leaving the port, we saw a huge pod of dolphins\(^o^)/ Everyone came together to chase the dolphins, searching "toward the mountains, toward the sea." It seemed like almost all the dolphins in Oahu gathered that day, with reports of around 200 dolphins present(^^). Both my husband and I agreed that our honeymoon at Dolphin University was the most fun! However, I do regret not buying the photos(´・ω・`).
イルカと一緒に泳ぐのが夢で、今回念願のイルカ大学に行くことができました!!
当日は快晴で10月に入り寒いかと思ったけれど、ウエットスーツを着なくても全然大丈夫でした!
行きのバスからウキウキで、いざ海に出ると…
港から出てすぐにイルカの大群が\(^o^)/
皆で一丸となりイルカを追いかけ、「山の方ー、海の方ー」とみんなで探し。
その日はオアフにいるイルカがほとんど集まってくれたみたいで、200頭はいたと言われました(^^)
私も旦那さんも、今回のハネームーンはイルカ大学が一番楽しかった!
ただ、後悔は写真買っとけばよかったー(´・ω・`)

We signed up for this snorkeling cruise as a couple because we heard we could see wild dolphins.
On the bus ride to the boarding location, the tour guide mentioned that they had searched for an hour yesterday before finally spotting dolphins, which made us quite anxious. However, once we got out to sea, we quickly encountered a pod of dolphins, put on our life jackets, and jumped into the water!
Immediately, a large group of dolphins swam right in front of us. We could hear their sounds, and they swirled around us. It was incredible to see wild dolphins, and we realized how lucky our team was.
Onboard, we were served handmade hamburgers while the crew performed a hula dance. Watching the dance while enjoying the burgers was exceptional.
On our way back to the harbor, we also spotted a whale. The spouting was very impressive.
We even got to see the tail fin, which can only be seen when diving deep, making it a truly wonderful experience. I highly recommend participating in this if you go to Hawaii!
この度、野生のイルカが見れるという事から夫婦で
このシュノーケリング・クルーズを申し込み参加致しました。
船に乗る場所まで移動するバスの中で
昨日、1時間探してやっとイルカを見る事ができた。という話をツアーの方がしており、
非常に不安でしたが、いざ海に出てみるとすぐにイルカの群れがいてライフジャケットを装着し
すぐに海へ!
すぐにイルカの大群が目の前を通り、
イルカの声も聞こえ、また自分たちの周りをグルグルしており、
水族館ならまだしも野生のイルカをみる事が出来、
自分たちのチームがすごくラッキーという事がわかりました。
船上で手作りのハンバーガーを貰い、クルーの人たちが踊るフラダンス。
ハンバーガーを頬張りながら見るダンスは格別でした。
また港に帰る途中にクジラも見れました。
潮吹きもすごく迫力がありました。
また海の底に潜る際にしか見れない尾びれも見る事が出来、
非常に良い経験でした。
是h儀ハワイに行く際は、参加をお勧めいたします!!

At first, the price was somewhat high, and I wasn't very enthusiastic about the activity, but I participated due to my girlfriend's strong insistence. After joining, I was convinced... it was a very enjoyable and good activity. There are additional fees for things like wetsuit rental and photo/video data (optional), but I think the basic content is quite satisfying. Since I brought my own underwater camera, I didn't purchase the photos or video data, but while the price seemed a bit high, they were well taken and definitely better than what an amateur could capture. I couldn't take nice pictures at all (cry). If you have children or are in a large group without an underwater camera, I think it's worth purchasing. They will take pictures of everyone, but they prioritize the buyers for the shooting... As for the dolphins, we saw them for a rather short time, but I think everyone wished to see them a bit longer. We also saw sea turtles swimming, which was a rare experience that you don't get to have often. The staff were amazing! They were all very lively, so if you're not good with that, it might be a bit much, but I truly felt it was worth participating. This is all my personal opinion, but if you have even a little interest, I definitely recommend joining (laugh).
最初はお値段もソコソコするし、そこまで乗り気では無いアクティビティだったのですが彼女のゴリ押しで参加しました。参加して納得…とても楽しく良いアクティビティでした。ウェットスーツレンタルや写真、動画データなどの+αの追加料金(希望制)もあったりしますが基本的には満足出来る内容だと思います。当方は水中カメラ持参でしたので写真や動画データは購入しませんでしたが、お値段は割高な気がしますがキッチリ撮っていてくれていて、やはり素人とは比べ物にならなく納得出来そうな良い物でした。自分は全然綺麗に撮れなかったです(泣) お子様が居るご家族や大人数で水中カメラ持参で無い様でしたら購入価値はかなりあるかと思います。皆、撮って頂けますが一応、購入者優先で撮影してくれますので…。肝心のイルカはかなり短い時間でしたが見れました。もう少し長く見たいと皆様、思われていたと思います。海亀も普通に泳いでいて中々体験出来ない貴重な時間でした。スタッフの方たちも最高でした!皆ノリノリで騒ぐ事もあるので苦手な方は苦手かもしれませんが参加して良かったと心から思いました。全て個人的な意見ですが興味が少しでもありましたら是非参加をオススメします(笑)
