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＞

The wind was strong! 風が強かった！

Reviewed by: なかおか

I participated in October, and while the weather was good, the wind was strong! Because of that, the waves were high and the sea was a bit murky.

After snorkeling, my husband got seasick and couldn't eat much, which was unfortunate. Even for those who usually don't get seasick, it might be safer to take motion sickness medication just in case!

However, we did see turtles, and the sea was beautiful, so I was very satisfied! I want to try again when I come back to Hawaii!

10月の参加でしたが、天気はよかったのですが風が強い！
その為波が高く海が少し濁っていました。

シュノーケリングをしたあと、旦那が波酔いしてしまい、あまりごはんがたべられなかったのがかわいそうでした。
普段酔わない人でも、一応酔い止めは飲んで置いた方が安全かもしれません！

でも、カメさんもみれましたし、海もきれいで大満足です！
次ハワイにきたらまたリベンジしたいです！

I was able to see dolphins very up close. とても近くでイルカが見えました

Reviewed by: syuka

I was picked up by bus early in the morning, and then we traveled by boat from the port to the spot. During the briefing, I learned that diving suits can be rented for $20. I decided to rent one just in case, but I think it's a good idea for those who get cold easily to borrow one.

After the briefing, we headed out for dolphin watching, and we were able to encounter dolphins perfectly. When we could get close, we were able to approach just a few meters away. It wasn't for a long time, so I wished I could have swum a bit more.

After that, we went snorkeling to see sea turtles, and there were options for SUP and canoeing. I relaxed on the boat. For lunch, we had hamburgers, drinks, and snacks that we saw at a local supermarket.

The tour went by faster than I expected, and many people experienced seasickness, so it's necessary to take measures like bringing motion sickness medication. They mentioned that opportunities to swim with wild dolphins might become rare, but I think it's not easy to see dolphins at such a close distance, so I definitely want to go on this tour again.

早朝にバスでピックアップしてもらい、その後港から船で移動してスポットへ。
事前説明の際、＄20でダイビングスーツが借りられます。
念のため自分はレンタルしましたが、寒がりな人は借りておいた方がいいかなー位だと思います。
説明の後いざイルカウォッチングへ。ばっちりイルカに遭遇できました。
接近できる時は数m先まで近寄れました
長時間というわけではなかったので、もう少し泳ぎたかったなーと
後はシュノーケリングでウミガメを見に行ったり、SUPやらカヌーやら
自分は船の上でのんびりしていました
昼ごはんは地元スーパーで見かけた？ハンバーガーやドリンク、お菓子
思ったより駆け足であっという間だったツアーでした
結構船酔いする人も多かったので、酔い止め等の対策は必要ですね
野生のイルカと泳げる機会がなくなるかもしれないということですが
なかなかあの距離でイルカを見る事は出来ないと思うので是非また行きたいツアーです

I was able to swim with wild dolphins. It was unfortunate that my younger child was unwell and couldn't participate in most of the activities. The other tour participants were all enjoying themselves.

The waves were high, and it was physically challenging to swim to the pod of dolphins, so those with small children should be cautious.

野生のイルカと泳ぐことが出来ました。下の子が体調不良でほとんどのアクティビティに参加できず、残念でした。他のツアー参加者は皆様楽しんでいました。

波が高く、イルカの群れまで泳ぐのが体力的にしんどかったですので、小さな子供連れの方はお気を付けください。

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

Reviewed by: なおさん

The tour staff were all friendly, and the coordinator was an exceptionally cheerful and experienced Japanese woman. Her talks were entertaining, approachable, and cute. On the way to the snorkeling point, we saw a lot of manta rays and swimming sea turtles, and thanks to her engaging commentary, the time on the boat was not just a transfer but a really enjoyable experience. When we arrived at the snorkeling spot, I was able to swim quickly enough to go for another round, and during the second round, I spotted a sea turtle and was able to swim alongside it, which was truly moving! I wished I could have snorkeled for a longer time, but the snacks and hot tea after getting out of the water were perfectly seasoned and at just the right temperature, making them very delicious. I really felt that choosing this tour was a great decision! I highly, highly, highly recommend it!

ツアーのスタッフはみんな気さくで、仕切りのお姉さんはとびきり明るい日本人のベテランさん。トークは面白いし、親しみやすくて可愛い。シュノーケリングポイントに向かっている時、マンタの群れや泳いでいるウミガメをたくさん見かけたし、お姉さんのトークのおかげで、船上が単なる移動ではなくとても楽しい時間を過ごせました。ポイントに着いてシュノーケリングする時も、私は泳ぐのが早かったのでもう1周行かせて貰えたし、2周目の時にウミガメを見付けて一緒に泳ぐことが出来たので感動しました‼︎もっと長い時間シュノーケリングしたかったけど、海から上がった後のスナックとホットティーも塩加減やぬるめの温度が絶妙で、とても美味しかったです。今回はこのツアーにして本当に良かったと思いました！超超超オススメです！

Japanese male staff 日本人男性スタッフ

Reviewed by: N.T

The male staff member who was in charge from the pickup until our return was overly intimidating and didn’t smile at all. I was disappointed, as I had imagined the energetic female staff member I had seen on TV. I understand that the sea can be dangerous, which is why the explanation was delivered in a strong tone, but my daughter felt intimidated and ended up staying on the boat. When dolphins were spotted, everyone jumped into the water one by one, but it felt forced with shouts of "Go, go!" I think it would be quite scary for small children. As mentioned in the reviews, there was a strong sense of a production line. All the foreign staff were friendly, and they took care of my daughter who stayed on the boat, making jokes and taking photos with her. We did see dolphins, but it didn’t feel like we were swimming with them. I think it depends on the timing. I finally started to feel enjoyment when we moved on to the activities, but it seems we spent too much time with the dolphins, and the activity time ended up being shorter. On the way back, there was no place to change, and the restroom was crowded, so I changed outside with a towel wrapped around me. The bus on the way back was the last stop for our family, but the male guide got off before that. We ended up seeing him off, which is unacceptable. I probably won’t participate again, but if there is a next time, I would prefer a different guide.

ピックアップから帰りまで担当した男性スタッフが威圧感があり過ぎてニコリともしませんでした。
テレビで見ていた元気いっぱいの女性スタッフを想像していただけに残念でした。
海は危険がたくさんなので、説明の口調が強くなるのは分かりますが、娘は萎縮してしまい結局船上に残りました。
イルカが見えると順番に海に飛び込むのですが、行け行け！と強引に飛び込ませます。
小さな子供にはかなり怖いと思います。
レビューにあったように流れ作業感がすごいです。
外国人スタッフはみんな愛想が良く、船上に残った娘を気遣ってくれジョークで笑わせたり写真を撮ったりしてくれていたそうです。
イルカは見れました。が、一緒に泳ぐという感覚ではありませんでした。
タイミング次第だと思います。
移動しアクティビティをしている時にやっと楽しいと感じ始めましたが、イルカに時間を使いすぎたらしく、アクティビティの時間は短めに終了してしまいました。
帰りは着替えるところも無く、トイレも混んでいたのでタオルを巻いて外で着替えました。
帰りのバスは我が家は最後の停留所だったのですが、ガイドの男性スタッフはその前に下車してしまいました。客の私たちが見送る形になり、あり得ないですね。。
おそらくもう参加することは無いですが、もし次があるとしたら別のガイドさんがいいですね。

Second visit to the sandbar. ２度目のサンドバー

Reviewed by: kazue

Two years ago, we participated in a sandbar tour for the first time with my family, but due to the bad weather, it was too cold, and I regretted having to borrow a wetsuit and shivering on the boat. I wanted to see the amazing views again, so this time I joined with my daughter. Although the weather wasn't perfect, the scenery was much better than last time, and we were fortunate to encounter a school of manta rays, which is quite rare. I appreciated the timing of this trip. The relaxed atmosphere from the captain and the staff was great for us as repeat visitors.

The BBQ lunch we had on the boat was grilled directly by the captain himself, making for a perfect lunchtime while enjoying the views. It was delicious! After lunch, we went snorkeling and swam with beautiful tropical fish and turtles around the coral reefs.

Thank you to the Japanese staff member, Yukiko. I visit Hawaii every year, and I will definitely join the tour again next year!

２年前のお正月に家族で初めてサンドバーへのツアーに参加しましたが、天気も悪かったせいで、寒すぎてウエットスーツをお借りして、船の中で震えていたことが残念に思えていました。
最高の景色をもう一度見たくて、今回娘と二人で参加しました。
晴天とは言えなったのですが、前回よりも遙かに景色もよく、なかなか見ることのできない、マンタの群れに遭遇するなど、今回のタイミングに感謝でした。船長さんをはじめ、スタッフさんのラフな感じが２度目の私たちにはとてもよかったです。
船の中で食べたBBQランチは、船長さん本人がグリルで直接焼いてくれて、景色を眺めながら最高のランチタイムでした。美味しかったです！
ランチ後のシュノーケリングでは、サンゴ礁の周りにいるきれいな熱帯魚や亀と一緒に泳いだりできました。
スタッフの日本人女性ユキコ？さん、ありがとうございました。

I think there were no issues with the pick-up service. They came to pick us up at the hotel right on time. The weather was bad from the morning, and although it hadn't started raining yet, it was the coldest day in Hawaii. The explanation for snorkeling was longer than expected, and while we listened to it in the water, my husband and I were shivering, but we finally couldn't take it anymore and went back to the boat to drink some warm tea (laughs). The others also looked quite cold. By the time the return bus came to pick us up, it had started to rain quite a bit, which was disappointing, but I think it would be enjoyable if the weather is good. ★

送迎などは何の問題もなかったと思います。きちんと時間どうりにホテルへ迎えに来てくれました。朝から天気が悪く雨までは降っていなかったのですがハワイで一番寒い日でした。シュノーケリングの説明が思った以上に長く、海に浸かったまま話を聞くので主人と二人でぶるぶる震えながら頑張っていましたがとうとう耐え切れず船に戻ってあたたかいお茶をのんでいました（笑）ほかの方たちもかなりさむそうにしていました。帰りのバスが迎えに来る頃にはかなりの雨がふりだし、残念でしたが、天候さえよければ楽しめると思います★

You can have a fulfilling day from morning to evening, including transportation.

Whether the sandbar appears or the weather is good depends on luck.

However, since it had been raining for several days, the water level was up to my waist, which was deeper than I had imagined. The lunch hamburger was also delicious, as they grilled the meat on the boat. I would love to go again if I have the chance!

The wild dolphin cruise was amazing! 野生のイルカクルーズ最高１！

Reviewed by: 辻公恵

We participated as a family of five, and I had been wanting to join for a while. This time, I went with my daughter and grandchildren. I prayed to meet dolphins as we set out, and I was satisfied with the crew's cheerful demeanor and thoughtful arrangements for everyone. We encountered many dolphins, even twice!

Later, during snorkeling, we were lucky to meet a turtle. It would have been perfect if the water clarity had been better, but unfortunately, it was a bit disappointing. There were various activities like kayaking that kept us entertained. The hamburgers for lunch were surprisingly delicious; I thought one per person was not enough, and I wished for another because they were that good. The family photo taken when we disembarked became a wonderful memory. I highly recommend this for families and couples.

家族５人で参加しました、以前から一度参加したいなと思っていたところ今回は娘、孫たちと一緒に参加しました。イルカに会えるかなと祈りながら出向でした、クルーの人たちの底抜けに明るい、参加皆に心憎い計らいに満足し、たくさんのイルカに出会いました、２回も、、
その後シュノーケリングの最中亀に出会いラッキーでした、海の透明度がもっと良かったら最高でしたが残念ながら透明度はもう一つ残念、カヤック体験などいろいろメニューがあり私たちを退屈させませんでした、お昼のハンバーガーも予想以上に美味しく良かったと思います、１人１個なのでもう１個あればいいなーと思いました、それほど美味しかったです。下船の時家族写真は良い記念になりました。。家族ずれカップルにお勧めです。

Fun snorkeling tour 楽しいシュノーケル・ツアー

Reviewed by: egao

The pickup was early at 6:05 AM, which is quite a start. Starting next year, due to changes in American law, it may become illegal to approach dolphins within 100 yards, so there’s a possibility that the tour itself may be discontinued. I thought this might be my last chance to swim with wild dolphins in Waikiki this year, so I signed up. There were no changing rooms or showers, which was inconvenient, but the fun far outweighed that. We discovered a pod of dolphins and immediately jumped in at the guide's instruction. If you hesitate, you might miss them; dolphins are very fast. It doesn’t feel like swimming with dolphins; it feels like dolphins are zooming past you at high speed around and below you. After watching the dolphins, we enjoyed super fun snorkeling surrounded by colorful fish, and we were able to see sea turtles up close (but touching them is not allowed). You can also enjoy kayaking and stand-up paddleboarding. The crew and staff were very friendly, and we had a great time playing in the ocean. We were able to return by early afternoon, so we had plenty of time for sightseeing afterward.

ピックアップは早朝6時5分と早いスタートです。来年からアメリカの法律が変わりイルカに100ヤード以内近づけなくなるためツアー自体が無くなる可能性もあります。ひょっとして今年がワイキキで野生イルカと泳げる最後のチャンスかもと思い申し込みました。着替える所もシャワーもありません、不自由と言えば不自由でしたがそれを上回る楽しさでした。イルカの群れを発見しガイドの指示で直ぐ飛び込みます。ぼやぼやしてると見損ないます、イルカはとても速いです。イルカと一緒に泳ぐという感覚ではありません、自分の周りや下を猛スピードでイルカが通り過ぎる感じです。イルカ見学の後は色とりどりの魚に囲まれての超楽しいシュノーケリング、ウミガメもタッチできる距離で見れました(タッチはNGです）。カヤックやスタンダップパドルも楽しめます。クルー、スタッフたちはとてもフレンドリーで陽気な海遊びが十分楽しめました。昼過ぎには帰れるので午後も十分観光できました。

I had been looking forward to this place for a long time. It was sunny, but as soon as we got on the boat, it started to rain... Fortunately, it stopped quickly. What impressed me the most was the service. The staff promptly wiped down the benches that had gotten wet from the rain. I didn't expect that at all since I was in my swimsuit and it was overseas, so I was really happy about it. Also, surprisingly, the boat's restroom was clean!

In addition to seeing sea turtles, we also spotted manta rays (which are said to be rare), and I was very satisfied with the snorkeling experience. The staff were all kind and entertaining. The lunch was delicious too; the captain grilled hamburgers on the boat, which made for great burgers.

The only downside was that the sandbar was a bit deep. But that can change from day to day, so I just had bad luck... I'm thinking about trying again next year. I would like to go with the same tour company as this time.

前々から行きたかった場所でとても楽しみにしていました。晴れていたのですが船に乗って早々雨が…
でもすぐ止んだので良かったです。でもここで良かったのはサービス。雨に濡れたベンチをスタッフの方がきちんと拭いて下さりました。水着だしましてや海外だし全くそんな事期待していなかったのにとても嬉しかったです。また船のお手洗いも意外にもキレイ！！
海ガメに加えマンタも見られ(マンタはたまにしか見られないそう)シュノーケリングも大満足。
スタッフの方もみなさん親切で面白い♪ランチもキャプテンが船で焼いてくれるハンバーグを使ったハンバーガーで美味しかったです。
今回残念だったのは少しサンドバーが深かった事。でもこれは日によって変わるし運が悪かった…
また来年チャレンジしよっかな。

This was my first time participating. I was sleepy from the early morning pickup, but I took a short nap in the car while receiving instructions and explanations about the tour. We arrived at the port around 8:00. After a restroom break and applying sunscreen, we boarded the boat. There was an introduction of the captain, staff, and photographer, followed by a departure ceremony. Each of us held a plumeria flower and sang the song "Eho Mai" as we set off to search for dolphins. After about 30 to 40 minutes, we spotted a pod of dolphins, and with the captain's "Go!" signal, everyone jumped in!

However, the pod quickly disappeared, and we had to wait. After that, the dolphins were hard to find, and we extended our search by 90 minutes. Once my wet body started to feel cold in the wind, the captain gave the "Go!" signal again!

It was an indescribably mystical sight. Right in front of us was a pod of dolphins, and there were about 30 to 40 of them nearby, both below and in the distance. We were able to see the dolphins at a very close range.

This time, it took a while to find the dolphins, so we couldn't do any other activities, but I still made wonderful memories. I'm really glad I participated. Thank you very much!

The rest of the crew really made me feels good and my fears went away. When we got to the spot in the sea the first animal I saw was a turtle, and was an amazing feeling. While the crew organizing every scooter the only thing in my mind was "oh please I don't want to be the first one", after the captain told me I will be the next, I ended up being the third person going under. Words can not explain, you really need to go and have this experience where you can actually be close and touch animals under the sea.
I was lucky enough to see turtles, different kind of fish and even an octopus that got stuck on my big helmet for my pictures and video.
By the end of the day I got my photos and video, I've played my video and couldn't believe that the woman was me, they really did a good job, from the beginning to the end
I really recommend BOB's Adventure underwater scooter, specially if you don't swim at all, like me.


PS: I took the bus to get there from downtown, the commute was really easy and you will get so see more.

サンドバー天使の海　シュノーケリング＆ウミガメウォッチクルーズ　船上のBBQグリルで焼くハンバーガーランチ付き！＜午前／日本語クルー＞

It's different from what I imagined. 想像とは違います。

Reviewed by: hana

The sandbars you see on TV only appear when you calculate the tides. If you happen to experience a water depth of around your ankles, I think you’re quite lucky. The world you see on TV might be a bit difficult to experience on a tour, unless you rent a private boat and plan the date and time accordingly. When I went, it was from mid to late September, and the shallowest part was about halfway up my thighs.

Indeed, the water near the sandbar was clear and beautiful. However, it rained, and the overall experience was somewhat lacking.

The hamburgers made on the boat were delicious. The patties were frozen, but they grilled them on a BBQ, so they tasted great.

The issue came after lunch. We moved from the sandbar to an area with lots of coral for snorkeling. They took us to a place where you could say the coral spread over a large area. We were warned not to touch the coral, but depending on the tides, in shallow areas, the coral was about 30 cm below the surface. Can you swim in such places? The coral wasn’t particularly beautiful, and there weren’t many fish, so I didn’t feel the joy of snorkeling at all. Additionally, I was the only one who got stung by jellyfish multiple times on both shoulders and hands, having to endure pain and itching. You could say I was unlucky, but for this kind of experience, it felt overpriced.

テレビで観るようなサンドバーは潮の満ち引きを計算しないと現れません。
偶然にも足首程度の水深を体験出来た方は、かなりラッキーだと思います。
テレビで観るような世界は、ちょっとツアーでは難しいかな？プライベートで借り切って、日にちや時間も計算して行くなら別ですけど。
私が行った時は9月中旬～下旬にかけてでしたが、1番浅い所で太股の中間ぐらいでした。

確かにサンドバー近くは海は透き通っていて、きれいではありました。
しかし、雨は降るし、何とも言えない感じでした。

ただ船の上で作ってくれるハンバーガーは美味しかったです。( ´艸｀)パテは冷凍物ですが、BBQ用のコンロ？で焼いてくれるので、美味しかったです。

問題はランチを食べた後。
サンドバーから、珊瑚がたくさんあるところへ移動して、シュノーケリングをします。確かに珊瑚のの岩と言ってもいいぐらい大きい範囲にわたって珊瑚がある場所に連れて行ってくれます。
珊瑚には触らないようにと注意を受けましたが、潮の具合なのか浅いところだと水面から30cmぐらいの所に珊瑚があります。こんな所で泳げますか？？
特にキレイ珊瑚でもないし、魚がたくさんいるわけでもなく、シュノーケリングの楽しさが全く感じられませんでした。
そして私だけクラゲにたくさん刺されて両肩、両手と痛みと痒みに耐えなければなりませんでした。
運がなかったと言えばそれまでですが、こんな内容に対しては高いという感じです。

水中スクーター＆マウナルア湾パラダイスサンドバーシュノーケリングクルーズ　SUPなどのアクティビティも満喫！＜英語クルー＞

It's okay if you can't swim! It was fun! 泳げなくても大丈夫！楽しかったー！

Reviewed by: きゃな

First, we watched an explanation video about underwater scooters in an office-like area on the second floor, used the restroom, and those who weren't wearing swimsuits changed. At this point, two different colored paper tapes were wrapped around our wrists.

Everyone boarded the boat, but some groups were given marine shoes (probably based on the color of the paper tape) and were told to leave their belongings on the boat and get off because they would go to the sandbar on a different boat first. The boat to the sandbar went quite fast, which was a bit scary but fun! However, even though it was called a sandbar, the seawater was up to our chests, and when the waves got a bit high, we were splashed over our heads. A female staff member who spoke Japanese taught us how to use the stand-up paddle. You can ride with two people. She said that if you have a smartphone in a waterproof case, she would take pictures for you, and she took a lot of photos. We took turns enjoying it in groups of four, but while others were taking their turns, there wasn't much to do, so I thought it would be nice to have a float. The female staff members were always on floats, though (laughs).

After a while, the first boat we boarded returned, and we joined everyone else to move a bit offshore to use the underwater scooters. The moment we entered the helmet part of the scooter, we submerged in the sea. I didn't operate the scooter at all. When I placed my hands on the handlebars, the diver gestured for me to remove them a few times, and he operated the handlebars himself.

There was a sea turtle, and he pulled the scooter close to it! The scooter had food attached, and when I waved the net with the food, fish came to eat, and I was able to take many pictures from inside the helmet. The water was truly a beautiful blue, and I was moved by it.

While the next person was using the underwater scooter, we borrowed snorkeling gear and enjoyed it, but when we returned to the boat after the scooter, many people said they were cold, and some chose not to snorkel. Snacks and water were available for unlimited consumption, and everyone ate quite a bit. We could decide whether to purchase the photos taken by the diver after seeing them. I didn't purchase either the photos or the videos.

We had time to change and use the restroom until we got on the return vehicle. There were no towels laid on the seats, and since my swimsuit was still a bit wet, I placed a towel I used to dry off on the seat before sitting down.

最初に2階の事務所のようなところで水中スクーターの説明ビデオを見たりトイレに行ったり水着を着てない人は着替えたりしました。ここで色の違う紙テープのようなもの2本が手首に巻かれます。
1度みんな船に乗りましたが、何組かはマリンシューズを渡されて(多分紙テープの色によって)先に別のボートでサンドバーに行くから荷物を置いて船からおりて、と言われました。サンドバーへ行くボートは結構スピードを出して少し怖かったですが楽しかったです！しかしサンドバーといっても海水は胸まであり、少し高い波がくると頭からかぶります。女性の日本語が話せるスタッフがスタンドアップパドルのやり方を教えてくれます。2人で乗ることもできます。防水ケースに入れたスマホを持っていると写真撮ってあげるよ！と言ってくれてたくさん撮ってくれました。4組で交代交代に楽しみましたが他の方がやっている間は特にすることがなく海の中で立っているだけなので浮輪があればいいなと思いました。女性スタッフだけは常に浮輪にのってましたが(笑)
しばらくすると最初に乗った船が来てしてみなさんと合流して少し沖へ移動し水中スクーターをします。スクーターのヘルメット部分に入る瞬間は海に潜ります。 スクーターの操作は全くしていません。ハンドルに手を置いていると手をどけろみたいなジェスチャーを何回かされダイバーがハンドルを操作してなにかしてました。
ウミガメがいたのですぐ近くまでスクーターを引っ張って行ってくれました！スクーターには餌が付いていてその餌の網を振ると魚が食べに来てヘルメットの中から写真をたくさん撮れました。海の中は本当にきれいな青色で感動しました。
シュノーケリングは次の人が水中スクーターをしている間に勝手に道具を借り楽しむ感じでしたが水中スクーターを終えて船に戻ると寒いと言っている人が多くシュノーケリングはやらない人もいました。スナック菓子とお水は食べ飲み放題でみなさん結構食べてました。ダイバーが撮ってくれた写真は見てから購入するか決めれます。動画は見てませんが私はどちらも購入しませんでした。
帰りの車に乗るまで着替えたりトイレに行く時間がありました。座席にタオルなどは敷かれておらず、まだ少し水着が濡れていたので体をふいたタオルを敷いて座りました。

My first trip to Hawaii!!

About two days before my departure, I saw this tour featured on a stylish program about Hawaii, so I made a reservation. I participated with my boyfriend.

**About the Pickup**
Since our hotel was included as a pickup point for the tour, it was convenient to board the bus right from the front entrance of the hotel. Before the bus arrived, a cheerful female staff member who spoke Japanese came to inform us that the bus was slightly delayed due to traffic, which made me feel at ease.

**On the Bus**
During the ride, the lively staff member shared interesting information about the geography and climate of Oahu, snorkeling precautions, and stories about dolphins and sea turtles, which kept us entertained!

**Arrival at the Port**
Once we arrived at the port, we were given ample time to use the restroom.

**Boarding & the Main Event: Dolphins and Sea Turtles**
We headed to a beautiful sea that felt like nature, quite different from the urban Waikiki Beach! We went quite far out. The boat was designed to minimize rocking, so no one experienced seasickness. The cobalt blue color of the sea is unforgettable. After a while, we spotted dolphins jumping around. I was surprised at how easily we could see them! Then, we put on our gear and dove into the water!! We quickly saw a pod of dolphins. I even heard the dolphins making sounds like "quee-quee"!

We returned to the boat, changed locations, and dove again. I was glad to meet the dolphins both times! One piece of advice: when instructed to enter the water, even if you feel a bit scared, it's better to get in as quickly as possible to increase your chances of seeing the dolphins. Some people who hesitated on the boat missed seeing the dolphins when they finally got in. I jumped in quickly and had a great encounter with the dolphins!

Back on the boat, we headed to the spot where the sea turtles were! Snorkeling was so much fun. I saw colorful fish and coral. Then, we were told there was a sea turtle nearby! As I swam over, there was the sea turtle! Watching it felt like time stood still; it was a magical experience.

The reason this tour refers to dolphins as "teachers" and sea turtles as "professors" will become clear once you participate. It truly felt mystical, and I was filled with a sense of awe, as if my heart was being seen through.

**Marine Sports**
I tried stand-up paddleboarding. It was a short time due to the rotation, but I enjoyed it!

**Food**
On the boat, we were provided with pineapple, juice, snacks, and cheeseburgers. The cheeseburger was slightly warm and delicious! It felt very accommodating.

**Atmosphere on the Boat**
We were given lyric sheets and sang traditional Hawaiian songs and danced. All the staff were cheerful, and it was a lot of fun!

**Return**
When disembarking, tipping was not required. We were also taken back to our hotel by bus, just like on the way there, which was convenient.

**Overall**
For this experience and this price, it was a bargain!! The consideration for the tour guests was also great!

Mahalo~

人生初のハワイ旅行！！
出国日の２日ほど前に、おしゃれイズムのハワイ特集で、こちらのツアーが取り上げられていたこともあり、予約しました。彼氏と２人で参加しました。

〈ピックアップに関して〉
滞在先ホテルが、ツアーのピックアップ地点に含まれていたので、ホテルの正面玄関からバスに乗れて便利でした。バスが来る前に、日本語の話せる元気ハツラツな女性スタッフが、徒歩で来てくれて、バスが渋滞で少し遅れていることなどを伝えてくださり、安心しました。

〈バス内〉
車中では、先ほどの元気なお姉さんが、オアフ島の地理・気候の話や、シュノーケリングにおける注意事項、イルカやウミガメの話など、タメになるお話をしてくれたおかげで退屈しませんでした！

〈港に到着〉
港に着いたら、トイレに行くための充分な時間が与えられました。

〈乗船＆本題のイルカ・ウミガメ〉
都会のワイキキビーチとはまた違った雰囲気の、ローカルな、大自然を感じるきれいな海へ！
かなり沖のほうまで行きました。船はあまり揺れない構造になっているそうで、船酔いしている方はいませんでした。
コバルトブルーというんでしょうか…あの美しい海の色は忘れられません。
沖に出てしばらくすると、イルカ先生たちがピョンピョンしていらっしゃるのが見られました。
イルカって、こんなに簡単に見られるものなのかと、驚きました！
そして、道具をつけて、海へダイブ！！
すぐに群れを見ることができました。
私は、「キュイーン、キュイーン」というイルカ先生の声も聴くことができました！

一度船に戻り、場所を変えてもう一度潜りました。
２回ともしっかりイルカ先生に会えてよかったです！
★ここで一つ、注意なのですが、海へ入る指示がでたら、多少の恐怖感があっても、ためらわずになるべく早く海へ入ったほうが、イルカ先生に会うチャンスが増えると思います。
船上で怖がってモタモタしてしまった人の中には、海に入ったときにはイルカ先生が逃げてしまっていて見られなかった、という人たちがいたようです。
私はサッと入ったので、イルカ先生にばっちり会えました！

再び船に戻り、次はウミガメ大教授のいらっしゃるスポットへ！
とにかく、シュノーケリングが、楽しい。きれいな色のお魚や、サンゴを見ました。
すると、ウミガメがいるとの指示が！
そちらのほうに泳いでいくと、ウミガメ大教授がいらっしゃいました！
見ている間は、時が止まっているような、不思議な感覚がしました。

こちらのツアーで、イルカを「先生」、ウミガメを「大教授」と呼んでいる理由は、参加すればわかると思います。本当に、神秘的で、心を見透かされているような、畏敬の念がわきました。

〈マリンスポーツ〉
私はスタンダップ・パドルに挑戦しました。交代制なので、短時間ですが、楽しめました！

〈食べ物〉
船上では、パイナップルやジュース、スナック、チーズバーガーなどが支給されました。
チーズバーガーは、ほんのりあったかく、おいしかったです！
至れり尽くせり、という感じでした。

〈船上の雰囲気〉
歌詞カードが配られ、ハワイの伝統的な歌や踊りをしました。どのスタッフも陽気で、とても楽しかったです！

〈帰り〉
船を降りる際、チップは不要でした。
帰りも、行きと同じように滞在先ホテルまでバスで送ってもらったので、楽でした。

〈総合的に〉
この内容で、この値段は、安い！！
ツアー客への気遣いもよかったです！

マハロ〜

2.5-Hour Spirit of Aloha Waikiki Turtle Snorkel Tour with Cocktails from Hilton

AMAZING

Reviewed by: Heather

This was arguably one of the best things we did this trip!! Our crew was AMAZING! So friendly, patient and helpful. I can't say enough good things. I've never snorkeled before, I'm not a strong swimmer so I kind of panicked when I was just our in open water even with the group. The crew member leading us to Turtle Canyon saw me struggling, came over and swam me there where I became just mesmerized by how close we were to the fish & turtles I calmed down enough to actually snorkel! She also took my camera down and got crazy awesome pictures. Food was great, drinks were delicious, the sail was beautiful. I cannot say enough good things about this excursion. Worth every penny! Cannot wait to snorkel again!
