It's a shame that I couldn't experience the beach in its full glory, perhaps due to the timing. On the other hand, it was incredibly lucky to see sea turtles. I want to participate again next time! It was fun.
本当は砂浜が浮き出ててる状態で体験出来なかったのが残念、時期的に不可能だったから?

I absolutely wanted to go to the island of heaven, and I signed up for this angelic sea. I'm glad we could make a reservation here for the same place we wanted to visit. I intended to speak in English, but the staff were so good at Japanese that before I knew it, I was speaking in Japanese. The local staff were very friendly, and it was a lot of fun. It was a tour that made me want to go again.

This was my second time participating. We were blessed with great weather, and it was fantastic! The staff, including the Japanese members and the locals, especially a half-Japanese sister, were entertaining, and I enjoyed our conversations! The lunch was also of high quality.
The only thing that concerned me was the privacy regarding photos. By coincidence, it seems there was a mutual acquaintance among the participants of the tour, and when that person uploaded a group photo to Facebook, I was shocked to receive a message from a friend in Japan asking if I was in Hawaii.
I think it’s necessary to have rules or reminders about not posting photos with others in them without their consent, or at least to get their approval first. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

The sandbar felt shallow, possibly due to high tide, but during the subsequent sea turtle watch, we saw many sea turtles and manta rays! There were also plenty of sea turtles while snorkeling, and it was one of the most satisfying snorkeling experiences I've had. The staff was friendly, and since they provided a Japanese guide, I felt comfortable enjoying the activities. I definitely want to do this again next time.

I participated in the morning plan. Unfortunately, it was a cloudy day, but even in January, Hawaii was warm. We headed to the heavenly sea while watching sea turtles. There were about 100 participants. At the sandbar, we walked over 50 meters in water slightly below waist level, over sand and coral fragments. It seemed to be low tide... Then, we took commemorative photos. We were split into two boats. The snorkeling experience was wonderful, with thorough and attentive guidance, and we slowly explored alongside the sandbar, observing tropical fish and sea turtles on the bottom. Since breakfast was around noon, it was actually lunch. The delicious croissant sandwiches and other offerings were satisfying. The staff's service was excellent and left a strong impression. I would love to go again.
午前プランで参加。あいにくの曇り空でしたが、1月なのにハワイは暖か。ウミガメウオッチングをしながら、天国の海へ。100人位の参加。サンドバーは腰よりやや下の海水の中、砂やサンゴのかけらの上を50m以上歩きます。引き潮だとみられるのだが・・・。そして、記念撮影。2艘にわかれていました。シュノーケリング体験は、懇切丁寧な指導後にサンドバー横をゆっくり、熱帯魚や底にいた海亀を見ながら。朝食は昼頃でしたのでランチです。おいしいクロワッサンサンドなど満足する内容です。スタッフの対応もよく感動。また、行きたいと思います。

I participated with my mother.
Among the many tours available, I chose this one because it offered a simple itinerary focused on the sandbar and snorkeling, along with two key points: "Japanese-speaking guide" and "BBQ lunch included."
Once we boarded the bus heading to Kaneohe Bay from the meeting point, the guide was a foreigner who knew a few words of Japanese (not fluent). The atmosphere on the bus was extremely high-energy, filled with American jokes, but only the English-speaking passengers were laughing. Many of the Japanese passengers, who made up 80% of the bus, felt left out... (sigh). I was worried that this person with broken Japanese was the "Japanese-speaking guide," but I felt relieved to find another Japanese staff member on the boat.
The Japanese-speaking female guide was energetic and great at engaging the group; she was very funny and kind! Her explanations were very clear, and as someone who lacks confidence in English, I was glad I chose a Japanese staff member. The other staff members were all locals, and although their Japanese was limited, they were friendly and kind. I was able to enjoy the experience comfortably throughout.
The sandbar we aimed for had water up to about my knees, but it was beautifully clear, and while some people were swimming, others were playing beach volleyball. I think everyone was able to enjoy themselves thoroughly. We were blessed with good weather, and we had plenty of time to relax on the sandbar. Although it was a large tour with two boats, we didn't feel crowded with other tours, and we were able to take beautiful photos!
Lunch was a BBQ on the boat! I didn't have high expectations since it was an option, but it turned out to be hearty and delicious! Freshly grilled hamburgers with a wonderful view! A pleasant breeze! The staff even sang while playing the guitar... it was truly the best moment! After that, we moved to see sea turtles together and even spotted a rare giant manta ray, which made us feel special when they said, "Today is your lucky day!"
The snorkeling point was filled with lots of fish, and I was thrilled to see colorful tropical fish right in front of me. My mother, who is over 60, was initially scared of snorkeling and planned to stay on the boat, but I took her to the water, and although she was scared and almost in tears, a staff member guided her with a floating stick, allowing her to swim comfortably throughout. She was able to see many beautiful fish up close, and I think it became a great memory for her. I appreciate the kind assistance, as I imagine guiding her underwater must have been tiring.
At the snorkeling point, we were lucky enough to swim close to a sea turtle, which became a very memorable experience. Like the sandbar, this was also a private spot just for our tour participants, so we could enjoy it without being crowded. I think we had about 45 minutes to an hour of snorkeling time. We thoroughly enjoyed our time in the water! After getting out of the sea, it was great to receive a warm drink to warm up my chilled body.
The only disappointing part was... when we boarded the bus for the return trip, there were somehow too many people, and there were no seats available. There were even empty seats on the way there, so why were there more people on the return trip? Were they not checking names properly before boarding? This remains a mystery... I was terrified thinking that we could have almost been left behind because the bus was full! This was a moment that made me realize the lack of organization compared to Japanese tours. I ended up feeling disappointed at the very end. (★-1) I also felt uneasy when the staff only took attendance in the morning and then left in the vehicle without saying anything... (after a while, a large bus arrived). Given that the tour itself exceeded my expectations, the handling during the meeting and the bus rides detracted from the quality of the tour.
I felt that the prices of tours have risen signific
母と2人で参加しました。
数あるツアーの中で、サンドバーとシュノーケリングに特化したシンプルなツアー内容であること、そして「日本語ガイド」「BBQランチ付き」の2点がポイントでこちらに申し込みました。
集合場所からカネオヘ湾へ向かうバスに乗り込むと、バス内でガイドしてくださる方はガチガチの外国人の方で、一言二言日本語を知っている(≠話せる)レベル。
バス内は超高いテンションで終始アメリカンジョークがさく裂していましたが、笑っているのは英語圏の方のみ。車中80%を占める日本人の多くは置いてけぼり状態‥(苦笑)
まさか、このカタコトの方が「日本語ガイド」??と焦りましたが、船には別の日本人スタッフの方がいてひと安心。
日本語ガイドの女性はテンション高く盛り上げ上手で、とーっても面白くていい方でした!
説明も大変わかりやすく、英語に自信がない私はやっぱり日本語スタッフを選択して正解でした。
その方以外の他のスタッフは皆 現地の方々でしたが、日本語はカタコトなものの、フレンドリーで優しくていい方ばかり。終始楽しく、安心して参加することが出来ました。
お目当てのサンドバーは膝下くらいの水位でしたが、底まで透き通って大変美しく、泳ぐ方もいればビーチバレーをする方々もいて、参加者各々が十分に楽しめたと思います。
お天気にも恵まれ、サンドバー上陸の時間も十分にとってくださり、マッタリと過ごすことが出来ました。
船2隻での大所帯ツアーでしたが、他のツアーの方と一緒になって混雑するようなこともなく、美しい写真もバッチリ撮れます!
昼食は船内でBBQランチ!オプションだからと期待していませんでしたが、これがまたボリューミーで美味しかった!
たった今焼いたばかりの出来立てハンバーガーに素晴らしい景色!気持ちいい風!スタッフの方がギター片手に歌まで披露してくれて‥まさに最高のひと時!
その後、移動して皆でウミガメを見たり、珍しい巨大マンタも目撃することができ「今日はラッキーだよ!」と言ってもらえて特別感もありました!
シュノーケリングポイントは本当にお魚がい~っぱいいる場所で、目の前にカラフルな熱帯魚がたくさんいて感激でした。
60歳オーバーの母は、シュノーケリングを怖がって船内に残るつもりでいましたが、せっかくだから!と半ば強引に海に連れて行き、怖くて泣きそうになっていたところ、スタッフの方が棒状の浮きを持ってずーっと誘導してくださり、終始安心して泳ぐことができたようです。
美しいお魚も近くでたくさん見られたようで、母にとってもいい思い出になったと思います。
海中での誘導は疲れたと思います。親切な対応に大変感謝します!
シュノーケリングポイントではウミガメも出没!幸運にも近くで一緒に泳ぐこともでき、とても心に残る経験になりました。
サンドバー同様、ここも同じツアー参加者だけの貸し切りスポットだったため、人で溢れかえるようなこともなく悠々と楽しむことができました。
シュノーケリングの時間は45分~1時間ほどあったように思います。十分すぎるくらいに海の中を満喫し、心底楽しめました!
海から上がって冷えた身体に、すかさず温かいドリンクをいただけたのは「わかってるなぁ!」という感じでした。
ひとつだけ残念だったのは‥‥
帰りのバスに乗り込むと、なぜか定員オーバーで座る席が無かったこと。
行きの車内では空席もあったくらいなのに、なぜ帰りの便は席が足りないほど人が増えているのでしょうか?
ちゃんと名前を確認して乗車させていないんでしょうか?こればかりは謎でしかありません‥
満席だから出発!と、危うく現地に置き去りにされる可能性もあったかとお思うと、恐ろしくてなりません。
こればかりは、日本のツアーとは違う杜撰な部分が出たな‥と痛感した場面でした。
最後の最後に残念な思いをしてしまいました。(★-1)
朝の集合時も、点呼だけして何も告げずに車でどこかに行ってしまうスタッフの方に不安を感じました‥(しばらくして大型バスが到着)
ツアーの内容自体が期待以上だっただけに、集合時と行き帰りのバスでの対応が、ツアーの質を落としている感は否めません。
どのツアー会社も、以前に比べツアー自体の価格が高騰して数十ドル値上がっている印象を受けましたが、今回は大変満足したツアーでしたので、この内容だったらまたぜひ参加したいなと思いました。
他社に比べてクチコミのポイントが高いのも納得できるいいツアーです!
安心してご参加をオススメできます。
お天気や気候、サンドバーの状態は運任せだけど、楽しめるツアー内容であることは間違いないですよ!

The highlight of my trip to Hawaii was the sandbar at Kaneohe Bay! The boat had both local and Japanese crew members, and both were very accommodating. In particular, the Japanese crew member, Yukiko, was very friendly, chatting with all the participants and taking photos, which made for even more enjoyable memories!
The weather was great that day, and the sandbar was absolutely beautiful! At the sandbar, we enjoyed an hour of free time where we could practice snorkeling, take photos, and play beach volleyball with the crew and other participants.
After returning to the boat, we had hamburgers for lunch. The captain grilled the meat himself, and snacks and vegetables were self-serve. Soft drinks were unlimited, and the crew would refill them anytime if you asked at the counter on the boat.
Actually, my meat hadn’t been grilled yet, and I was told to wait a bit for a fresh one, but since they felt bad for making me wait, I ended up getting two pieces of meat (laughs), and they also grilled some cheese and bread for me! I really appreciated this kind of thoughtfulness.
After lunch, we watched sea turtles and manta rays from the boat. I heard that sea turtles are there every day, but we were lucky to see many manta rays that day, which was very moving!
From 1:00 PM, we went snorkeling near the coral reef! We snorkeled for about an hour around a very large coral reef, watching the fish. I wasn’t able to swim with the sea turtles, but it seemed that others were able to, and it appears that there are lucky moments when you can swim with them!
Overall, it was a wonderful experience, and I would love to participate again!
ハワイ旅行で一番の楽しみだった、カネオヘ湾のサンドバー!
ボートには現地の人と日本人のクルーが両方乗っており、どちらもとても対応が良かったです。
特に日本人クルー、ユキコさんは参加者皆に気さくに話し掛けていたり写真も撮ってくれたり、すごく陽気な方でより楽しい思い出ができました!
この日は天気がよく、サンドバーがとっても綺麗でした!!サンドバーでは、この後にあるシュノーケリングの練習ができたり、写真を撮ったりクルー達もツアー参加者も混じってビーチバレーをやっていたりと、各自で1時間のフリータイムを楽しんでいました。
ボートに戻ったら昼食のハンバーガー。お肉は船長自ら焼いてくれて、スナックや野菜は自分でお皿に取る方式でした。あと、ソフトドリンクは飲み放題で、ボートの中のカウンター?でクルーに声を掛ければいつでも注いでくれました。
実は私の分のお肉が焼かれていなくて新しく焼くから少し待ってと言われたのですが、待たせてしまったからと言ってお肉は2枚頂き(笑)、チーズやパンも少し焼いてくれました!こういう気づかいもして頂いて嬉しかったです^_^
昼食が終わって、ボートからウミガメとマンタをウォッチングしました。
ウミガメは毎日いるそうなのですが、この日は運良くマンタも沢山見れてとても感動しました!
13:00からは、サンゴ礁の近くでシュノーケリング!とても大きなサンゴ礁の周りを、魚たちを見ながら1時間ほどシュノーケリングしました。私はウミガメと一緒に泳げなかったのですが、他の方は泳げていたみたいで、運よく一緒にウミガメと泳げる事もあるみたいです!
総合的に、とても素晴らしい体験でまた参加したいなと思いました!

There was no land visible above the water surface as often seen in photos, but the white color of the knee-deep water spread throughout the blue sea. The tones of white, blue, and emerald green were very beautiful. After lunch, during snorkeling, I was able to see a large sea turtle up close that I felt I could ride, making it an exhilarating tour.

We participated as a couple in our 40s. Despite it being the off-season, it was packed. I recommend booking early. You can have a unique experience where, just 15 minutes out to sea, you find yourself in shallow water up to your knees. Additionally, it's a great point that you can easily enjoy authentic snorkeling while seeing many fish. The lunch on the boat was plentiful and quite delicious. For fans, having Leonard's malasadas served first is a real treat. The level of the guide was high, and I think it was a very well-organized tour with efficient time management, attention to safety, and support tailored to the types of participants. Advance booking is necessary, and it seems there are limited spots, but having goggles for nearsightedness was very helpful.
40代夫婦で参加。オフシーズンにも関わらずぎっしりでした。早めの申し込みがお勧めです。15分ほど沖に出た場所が、膝下の浅い海になっているという不思議な体験が出来ます。 また多くの魚を見ながらの本格的シュノーケリングが簡単にできるのもポイントです。船上ランチもたべきれないほどあり、結構おいしかったです。最初にレナーズのマラサダが出るのもファンにはたまりません。ガイドのレベルも高かったし、効率的な時間配分、安全面への配慮、参加者のタイプに応じたフォローなど、非常に良くできたツアーだと思います。事前申し込みが必要、また数も限られるようですが、近眼用ゴーグルがあったのは、とても助かりました。
Aloha! Thank you very much for participating in the tour the other day. Also, I truly appreciate all the wonderful comments. When you come to Hawaii again, please do come and visit us! We will continue to evolve daily to ensure that you, Nekoko-san, are satisfied. I am looking forward to that day from now on. Mahalo!!
アロハ!先日はツアーにご参加頂いてありがとうございました。
またたくさんの嬉しいコメント本当にありがとうございます。
またハワイにお越しの際はぜひ!遊びにいらして下さいね。その際もまたねこ子さんに満足して頂けるよう日々進化して行きたいと思います。
それではその日を今から楽しみにお待ちしております。マハロ!!

While being rocked by a small boat, we moved around on rubber tubes surrounding it. This turned out to be surprisingly challenging. The staff member was very energetic and kept the atmosphere lively throughout. When we spotted dolphins, we all jumped in at her signal! I recommend aiming to stay as close to her as possible. When you're near the dolphins, you can hear their sounds, and they swim around playfully, with some people even able to touch them. The staff member also worked hard to find sea turtles for us. We were truly healed by the dolphins and sea turtles! On the way back, we returned on the rocking boat while feeling tired. Let's make sure to get to bed early the night before.
小さな船にガンガン揺られながら、その船の周りにあるゴムチューブにまたがって移動します。これが、意外と大変でした。
お姉さんが、とっても元気で、終始、盛り上げてくれてました。
イルカを見つけたら、全員で、お姉さんの合図とともに、飛び込みます!
できるだけ、お姉さんの近くを目指すことをおすすめします。
イルカの近くにいると、鳴き声?も聞こえるし、クルクルまわってくれるし、人によっては触れることができそうな位置でイルカを見れます。
ウミガメも、お姉さんが、頑張って探してくれました。
イルカとウミガメに癒されます♪
帰りは、疲れているなか、ガンガンに揺れる船で戻ります。
前日は、早く寝ましょう。
The speedboat at Dolphin Junior High is popular for its attraction-like experience, but the boat at Dolphin University is wider and more stable than the one at Dolphin Junior High, so I recommend that as well. I hope you will join Dolphin University next time and experience the difference.
イルカ中学のスピードボートはアトラクションのような感覚で人気ですが、イルカ大学の船の方はイルカ中学の船よりも広く安定性もあるのでそちらもおすすめです。次回は是非イルカ大学にご参加頂き、違いを体感して頂ければと思います。

My first sandbar!
To be honest, the weather wasn't great and it wasn't in the best condition, but the boat was beautiful, the guide was wonderful, and we got to see sea turtles and manta rays, which really lifted my spirits!
The sandbar was absolutely amazing!!!
When I go to Hawaii again, I definitely want to come back here!
初めてのサンドバー!
正直天気が悪く最高の状態ではなかったけど、船はキレイ・ガイドさんも素敵・ウミガメ・マンタも見れこれだけで気分は上々!
サンドバーはとにかく素晴らしかった!!!
再度ハワイに行った時も必ずここにはきたいですね!

In the early morning, still feeling sleepy, the bus from Dolphin University came to pick us up at the hotel. Once we got on the bus, the morning assembly began, and I felt a sense of focus.
When we arrived at the port, dawn was breaking. I was anxious before departure, but it was a relief to be able to rent a wetsuit. We prayed before setting off, and then we were on our way.
We headed towards the area where the dolphins were, and before long, we saw a large group of dolphins. My excitement grew, and I jumped into the sea. There were so many dolphins around! There were also other groups of dolphins. Even from a distance, we spotted a whale swimming! I was overwhelmed to see two sea turtles swimming as well!
On the way back, our guide, Julie, said, "I hope you don't forget to smile when you return to reality." Her words really touched me. It might be difficult, but I want to keep that in mind!
早朝、眠気が残っている中、イルカ大学のバスが
ホテルにお迎えに。バスに乗り込むと朝礼が
始まり気が引き締まります。
港に到着すると夜が開けてきて
出発前は不安だったけどウェットスーツを
レンタルできて助かりました。
出港前にお祈りをしていざ出発。
イルカのいる場所に向かうのですが
しばらくするとイルカの群れがたくさんいます。
気持ちが高まり海に飛び込みます。
するとたくさんのイルカの群れがいました。
他のイルカの群れもいます。
さらに遠くからなんとクジラが泳いでいました!
ウミガメも2匹泳いでて感無量です!
帰りに担当のジュリさんが
「帰国して現実に戻っても笑顔を忘れないでほしいの。」
という言葉にぐっときました(;_;)
難しい事かも知れないけど
そう出来るように心がけたいと思います!
I'm glad you enjoyed it. I hope the tour you participated in this time was a source of healing for everyone. Please join us again!
お楽しみ頂けて何よりです。今回ご参加頂きましたツアーが皆様の癒しとなればと思います。また是非ご参加下さいね。

The pickup location at the place we were staying was under construction, so we had to meet at the neighboring hotel, which was quite nerve-wracking. I felt relieved when the bus arrived, but one group was missing... The guide called out for them, but they weren't there, so we left. Even while driving, they were looking for them along the road. This really boosted my impression of the service.
As for the dolphins, they weren't swimming right next to us, but there were plenty swimming at our feet, and they swam alongside the boat while we were moving, which was incredibly exciting.
It was very disappointing not to encounter a honu. The snorkeling was cloudy, and it was different from what I had imagined. The weather is something you can't help, though.
But I was very satisfied. Nothing was as delicious as the malasadas on the boat!
泊まっていた場所のピックアップ場所が工事中で、隣のホテルで待ち合わせでかなりドキドキしました。バスが来たときにほっとしましたが、もう一組がいない・・・ガイドさんが声をかけてもいないので出発してしまったのですが、走っている最中も道路を見ながらいないか探されていました。ここで高感度があがりました。
肝心のイルカですが、近くで泳ぐ!!というわけではないのですが、足元でいっぱいのイルカが泳ぎ、船で走行中も並走して泳いだりしてもう大興奮でした。
ホヌに遭遇できなかったのはとても残念です。シュノーケル中も曇っていて、想像していたシュノーケルの感じとは異なりました。天気は仕方のないことですね。
でも大満足です。船上のマラサダほど美味しかったものはないです!!
It's a shame that the weather wasn't very good. I think July to September has the most days with nice weather. Please keep this in mind for your next visit.
お天気があまり良くなかったのは残念でしたね。7月〜9月が一番お天気が良い日が多いと思います。もし次回お越しの際にはご参考にして下さい。

We did the early excursion and were happy we did as our group only had 9 people and I felt we were able to see more activity. We rented wet suits since the water was just a bit cooler than our liking, and they worked great. The views on the way to the snorkeling spot are breathtaking as you see the sunrise behind a mountain range. We saw several whales and could hear their chatter in the water, an indescribable experience. We snorkeled with tropical fish, sea turtles, and dolphins. Then, we enjoyed a delicious lunch. Only wish we had more time.
The crew and shuttle driver were great! They even returned our beach towels, which we forgot at Spinner's. This excursion definitely under promised and over delivered.
We paid $50-$60 for the professional photographs, which was well worth it to us as it was impossible to capture everything. Can't wait to see them in a couple weeks!

I boarded the bus while battling sleepiness due to the early morning, but the weather on the day of the tour was fantastic, and the tour guide was lively and energetic, which quickly chased away my drowsiness. I was a bit concerned about spending the whole day at sea, so the half-day plan was just right for me. It was a very fulfilling plan that felt like a condensed version of Dolphin University, and I enjoyed every moment of it.
On the day of the tour, we were lucky enough to encounter a pod of wild dolphins as soon as we set sail from the port. Their high-pitched calls were clearly audible even underwater, which was truly moving. The sea was a stunning blue and transparent, like paint mixed with water, allowing me to experience the grandeur of nature not just visually but with my whole body.
I've been diving in beautiful places like Guam and Okinawa, but I was convinced that this was the sea of Hawaii. There were also elementary school children participating and having fun, so I can recommend this tour to people of all ages!
朝早かったために眠気と戦いながらバスに乗り込んだのですが、参加した日はとても天気が良く、ツアーガイドの方もはつらつとしていてテンションが高く、あっという間にそんな眠気も吹っ飛んでしまいました。一日中海にいるのは体力面で不安があったので、半日プランでちょうどよかったと思います。イルカ大学をぎゅっと凝縮したような非常に充実したプランで、余すところなく楽しめました。
当日は、運よく港から出航するとすぐに野生のイルカの群れに遭遇。きゅんきゅんと高い声で鳴いているのが水中でもよく聞こえ、感動しました。
海はまるで絵具を溶かしたかのように青く透明で、自然の雄大さを視覚だけでなく全身で味わうことができました。
グアムや沖縄など海がきれいなところで潜ったことがありますが、これがハワイの海かと納得しました。
小学生のお子さんも参加し楽しんでいたので、どんな年代の方にもおすすめできるツアーです!
Thank you for participating. We're glad you enjoyed it. We look forward to your next participation!
ご参加頂きましてありがとうございました。お楽しみ頂けて何よりです。またのご参加をお待ちしております!

We travelled with 3 small children. This catamaran sail was amazing. Staff took us to a great spot for turtles and assisted our kids in the water and onboard. After snorkeling we saw whales and dolphins. Relaxed, fun cruise staff went above and beyond highly recommend

The time was long, but I am satisfied. I just saw a lot of dolphins, and I wanted to see turtles as well, so I was a little disappointed.

ただイルカばっかりで、亀も見たかったので、少し残念です。
It's a shame you couldn't see the turtles. I hope you can meet them next time!
カメが見られず残念でしたね。次回は是非会える事を祈ります!

The shallow area made of coral fragments in the sea, which is different from the shallow waters, was a sight I had never seen before, and I couldn't help but be captivated. The hamburger for lunch was large, delicious, and combined with the scenery, it was truly delightful. During snorkeling, I was able to meet my long-awaited sea turtle and even swim together. There was also a surprise where our guide, Yukiko, took photos for us, making it a series of wonderful experiences that left me very satisfied. I want to participate many more times.
遠浅とは違う海の中にある珊瑚の欠片でできた浅瀬で、初めて見る光景で思わず見とれてしまいました。昼食のハンバーガーは大きくて美味しくて景色とあいまってとても美味しかった。シュノーケリングでは念願の海亀に会うことができ、一緒に泳ぐこともできてました。案内人のyukikoさんが写真を撮ってくれるサプライズもあり、すばらしい体験の連続で大満足です。何回も参加したくなります。
