The day before the snorkeling tour, Waikiki was sunny every day, but just before the meeting time, while having breakfast and looking outside, it started pouring rain and the wind picked up.
I thought, "Is this going to be canceled?" as my husband and I headed to the meeting place, but to our surprise, everyone was cheerful and said, "Once you're inside, it's the same! We're going ahead today!"
While I was relieved that it wasn't canceled, I couldn't help but feel cold waiting at the meeting spot due to the heavy rain and strong winds.
The snorkeling itself was a lot of fun, and I was very satisfied because I got to see many sea turtles and fish! We brought our own snorkel sets and fins, which made swimming easier. They provided us with foam sticks, allowing us to enjoy it for a long time.
However, the sailing after snorkeling was just freezing, and I was shivering. The towel I brought was wet from wiping off the rain and my body, so even covering myself with it didn't help, and even though I had never experienced seasickness before, I ended up feeling nauseous. The weather changed from rain to cloudy.
I realized I should have brought an extra towel for drying off and taken seasickness medication. When we left the hotel, it wasn't raining, so it was a big miscalculation.
シュノーケリングツアーの前日までは毎日晴天のワイキキでしたが、集合時間の少し前に朝食をとりながら外を見ると、大雨で風も強くなってしまった。
「これは中止かなぁ~」と旦那と残念に思いながら集合場所に行ってみると、「中に入っちゃえば同じだよ~!今日は催行OKだよ~!」と陽気な様子。
中止にならなくて嬉しい反面、大雨で風が強くて集合場所で待っている間も寒くてしょうがなかったです。
シュノーケリング自体はとっても楽しく、ホヌにもお魚にもたくさん会えたので大満足!!
私たちはシュノーケルセットとフィンも持参していたので泳ぎやすかったです。
発砲スチロールの棒は貸してくださり、長時間でも楽しめました。
しかしシュノーケリングの終了後のセーリングは、ただただ寒くて凍えていました。
持参したタオルも雨と体を拭いて濡れていたため、それを体にかけても寒くて、尚且つ、今まで一度も船酔いのした事のない私でも、船酔いしてしまいました。
お天気は雨から曇りになっていました。
船酔いの薬を飲んで、寒さ対策は忘れずに体を拭く以外のタオルを持っていったらよかったなと感じました。
宿泊ホテルを出発するときには雨は降っていなかったので、大誤算でした。

I participated on April 17, 2013. The weather was great, and I was able to swim with over 100 dolphins! I also saw about two sea turtles, and to my surprise, I was able to see a whale from the boat, which I thought was out of season. I felt like I had been saving my luck for this moment since I hadn't been very lucky lately.
One group probably had around 20 to 30 dolphins, and I went into the water three times, encountering them twice. I swam with four or five groups, so there might have been around 150 dolphins in total. It was just so lucky.
Our guide, Minako, was very clear in her explanations and had a bright personality, which was wonderful. I forgot the name, but Captain Papa? also took us accurately to the points, and during the whale watching, he kindly waited on the spot from when we dove until we surfaced.
My mother, who was with me, decided to stay on the boat at one point, saying, "I don't want to go in the water anymore today," but Minako frequently encouraged her not to push herself, so she was able to rest without hesitation. Since it was a tour with many entries, quite a few people chose to rest on the boat during the second session (snorkeling at the tropical fish and sea turtle points).
Even though the weather was nice, we had been snorkeling for quite a while, so it got quite cold, and the warm tea we received on the boat was much appreciated. The snacks were also quite delicious. I devoured a cinnamon pastry and cheese. I was a bit concerned about the calories in the cereal bar, so I took it home.
I really had a great time. I definitely want to take my husband, who stayed home this time, with me next time.
2013/4/17に参加しました。
お天気にも恵まれ、なんと100頭を超すイルカと泳ぐことができました!
ウミガメも2頭ほど見ることができ、おまけに時期が終わったかと思われたクジラも船の上から見ることができました。最近何かとツイていなかったので、「このために運をとっていたのか?」と思うほどでした。
ひとつの群れがたぶん2,30頭で、3回海に入って2回遭遇、4、5グループと一緒に泳ぐことができたので、もしかすると150頭くらいかもです。とにかくラッキーでした。
ガイドのミナコさんの説明はわかりやすく、明るい人柄でとても良かったです。お名前を忘れてしまったのですが、キャプテンパパ?もポイントまで的確に連れて行って下さり、ホエールの時も潜ってから浮き上がるまでその場で待機してくださるなど、親切でした。
同行の母が途中、「ちょっと今日はもう水に入りたくない」と船上に残っていたのですが、無理しないで~とミナコさんが頻繁におっしゃってくださっていたので、遠慮せず休むことができました。エントリー回数の多いツアーだったので、2時限目(熱帯魚やウミガメのポイントでのシュノーケル)はさすがに船上でお休みされる方が多かったです。
良いお天気と言えども、結構な時間シュノーケルしていたので冷えてしまい、船上でいただいた温かいお茶はありがたかったです。スナックも結構おいしかったです。シナモン系の菓子パンとチーズぺろりと食べてしまいました。シリアルバーはさすがにカロリーが気になって持ち帰りました。
本当に楽しかったです。
今度はお留守番してもらった夫もぜひ連れて行きたいと思いました。

This is my sixth time in Hawaii! I've wanted to join this tour for a while, and I finally participated this time.
Once we arrived at the port, we put on our wetsuits and immediately boarded the boat. The water temperature is low during this season, and the boat is fast, so being exposed to the wind the whole time was quite cold. Renting a wetsuit for $10 was definitely the right choice. By the way, everyone in the group rented one (laughs).
We set sail and searched for about two hours. Ultimately, we headed north up to just before the North Shore, but there was no sign of dolphins, and everyone was getting tired.
At that moment, we encountered a whale! It's rare to see one at this time of year. Everyone was thrilled by this unexpected encounter.
So, what about the dolphins? We received information from another boat that they were near the port! It was a case of "right under the lighthouse." We quickly headed south and managed to meet the dolphins. Depending on the day, there can be hundreds of them, but there were only a few on this day. However, I was really glad to see them clearly with my own eyes and to swim close to them.
After that, we moved to a snorkeling point and got to swim with about five sea turtles. They came close enough to touch.
The staff's energy was incredibly high throughout, so if you're not a fan of that kind of lively student-like atmosphere, it might be a bit overwhelming. Also, it's quite intense, so I don't think it's suitable for those who lack physical stamina or for older individuals. It really drains your energy.
I wonder if it varies by day? I've heard there are days when they can be found easily, which might make it easier. We had quite a struggle finding them. When we finally spotted them, it was like "Let's go!" and everyone jumped in at once (there were also people from other companies), so it got crowded, and I ended up getting kicked by someone’s fin.
But it all became a great memory.
ハワイは6回目!前からこのツアーに参加してみたく、今回ついに参加してきました。
港についたら、ウェットスーツを着用しすぐに船に乗り込みます。
この時期は水温も低いし、船は高速ですのでずーと風にさらされ寒いので借りて
大正解。有料で10ドルです。ちなみに参加者の全員が借りていました(笑)
出航して、2時間くらい??探し回りました。最終的にはノースショアの手前まで
北上し探しましたがイルカ先生は全くいる気配がなく、みんなお疲れモード。
そんな時に、クジラに遭遇!この時期にいるのは珍しいとのこと。
思わぬ出会いにみんな喜んでいました。
で、イルカ先生は?仲間の船から、港の近くにいるとの情報が!灯台下暗しですかね。
いっきに南下し、なんとかイルカ先生に会うことができました。
日によっては何百匹といるそうですが、この日は数頭でした。
しかしこの目でハッキリと見ることができたし、近くで泳ぐことができて本当に
良かったです。
その後はシュノーケルポイントに移動して、亀大教授と泳ぐこともできました。
5匹くらいいましたよ。触れるくらい近くまで来てくれました。
スタッフのテンションが終始バカ高いので、そういう学生ノリの賑やかなのが苦手な方は苦痛かも?
しかも結構なスパルタなので、体力に自信のない方、高齢の方には向いてないと思います。ものすごく体力を消耗します。
日によるのかな??すぐに見つかる日もあるらしいから、そういう日は楽チンなのかも。私達はなかなか見つからず苦労しましたからね。
みつかった瞬間、それいけーーーーって感じで、みんなが一斉に飛び込み(他の会社の連中もいるから)混みあっていて、前の人のフィンで蹴られる始末です。
でも全部がいい想い出になりました。

This was awesome!!! We not only saw dolphins but we saw humpback whales at the end of their migration. They also took us to a reef where we snorkeled with a sea turtle and saw tons of tropical fish. The girls on the boat crew were awesome. Highly educated about the ocean environment and the sea creatures. This was definitely one of the highlights of our Hawaii vacation. Don't miss this activity. Especially if you can do it during the whale migration season. Also, Domingo, our shuttle driver that picked us up from the hotel was a great tour guide as well.

I rated it 4 stars because of the weather and the cold, but the cruise staff were such fun people and kept us entertained throughout. Perhaps due to the weather, the sandbar was a bit underwhelming, but we were lucky to see sea turtles popping up here and there, and we even spotted a manta ray.
I definitely want to try again on a nice day. More than that... I wanted to join that staff team!
楽しかった~(^^)
天気と寒さで、☆4にしたけれど・・・クルーズスタッフが、楽しい人たちで終始楽しませていただきました。天気のせいかサンドバーは、いまひとつこんなものかな?でしたが、ウミガメがあちこちに顔を見せてくれましたし、マンタまで見れたのはラッキーでした。
是非、お天気のいい時に再挑戦したいです。

They pick you up at your hotel and drive you to the west side. They gear you up, they advise you not to touch or chase. You get on the water and if you're lucky, like us, you spot a pair of hump back whales. Then when they locate the dolphin herd, you get to swim among them for about an hour. Then you get to spend almost as much time over a reef, where you can swim with sea turtles and other fish. It was just terrific.
Then you get a decent sandwich and a drink, because you will be hungry after a full morning. Then they drive you back to Waikiki.
Excellent photo disk available to chronicle your trip, at a good price, if you wish. 400 photos of your trip + bonus file with great pics of dolphins, whales, and the area.
Only negative was no changing facility, public restrooms only. Also no bathroom on the boat so be prepared.
Definitely worth the price for this experience.

It was my first trip to Hawaii. Since I was going, I really wanted to see the sandbar, so I signed up for this tour.
It was cloudy on the day of the tour, so the water was cold when I got in, but the scenery was amazing.
I was able to see fish and coral while snorkeling.
Fortunately, I also got to see a sea turtle up close.
The hamburger we had for lunch was incredibly delicious!!
I enjoyed a relaxing lunch on the boat while listening to the guide's live performance, gazing at the beautiful sea, and it created wonderful memories.

There were only two Japanese families, and the rest were foreigners. The instructor's English had a thick accent (Yankee-style speaking), making it difficult to understand. I could only grasp about half of the meaning. Still, it was not a problem. We snorkeled for about 30 minutes to an hour off the coast of Waikiki. Since we had elementary school children with us, we brought life jackets, snorkels, masks, fins, and marine shoes from Japan. We encountered fish and turtles (honu). Bringing a waterproof camera is the best.
We departed in the morning, and the weather was cloudy with occasional sunshine, so it was cold on the boat after snorkeling. Especially with wet swimsuits and rash guards, it was chilly. It's essential to bring a thick bath towel from the hotel. Foreigners seem fine being naked, though.
After that, we went sailing towards Kahala. It was nice to see the Waikiki Beach hotel group from a different angle offshore. The group photo taken at departure was about $15, roughly the size of B5. It turned out quite nicely. This tour might be a bit tough for children under kindergarten age.
In summary: It's impossible for toddlers to be in the sea without being able to touch the bottom, just with a Styrofoam stick! Life jackets are essential. Bring a bath towel for warmth. And it costs $15.
日本人ファミリーは2組だけでそれ以外は外国人。インストラクターの英語が訛っていて(ヤンキー風しゃべり)聞き取りにくい。半分くらいの意味しかわからず。それでも問題なし。ワイキキの沖合いで30分から1時間くらいシュノーケリング。うちは小学生もいたので日本からライフベスト、シュノーケル、水中マスク、フィン、マリンシューズを持参。魚や亀(ホヌ)に遭遇。防水カメラ持参がベスト。
朝出発で天候がくもり、時々晴れだったのでシュノーケリングの後は船上では寒いです。特に濡れた水着やラッシュガードは寒い。ホテルから厚手のバスタオル持参が必須。外人は裸でも平気みたいですが。
その後カハラ方面へセーリング。沖合いからのワイキキビーチホテル群がいつもと違う方向から見れて良かったです。
出発時に撮ったグループ写真が確か15$。B5くらいの大きさ。 なかなかきれいに撮れてましたよ。幼稚園児以下はこのツアーは少々きついかも。
総括:足の届かない海に発砲スチロールの棒だけで幼児は無理!ライフベストが必須です。
寒さ対策のバスタオル。 そして15$。

Aloha! This is the Captain Bruce's Paradise of the Sea tour. Thank you for participating in the tour.
You got to touch a sea turtle, didn't you? (As you may know, touching sea turtles is prohibited in Hawaii for their protection.)
As you know, turtles are a symbol of good luck in Hawaii. I think a slightly larger turtle can be a bit thrilling, but perhaps it brought you even bigger happiness?
It seems that time flies by while snorkeling due to the beauty of the ocean... Next time, please enjoy snorkeling to your heart's content on a private tour. We look forward to seeing you with the sea turtles.

I checked the tide levels at the sandbar online in advance and chose this day, so it was disappointing that the temperature was lower than expected and there was a strong wind. However, I still had a wonderful day.
Out of 70 participants, 40 were Japanese (including 10 newlyweds!), and we split into two boats, one with a Japanese guide and the other with an English guide. Since it was a boat with only Japanese people, it felt quite relaxed.
When we arrived at the sandbar and entered the water from the stairs, I was submerged up to my waist. Wow, it was cold! After moving a few meters forward, it quickly became shallow, with the shallowest parts being about ankle-deep. The shallow areas felt somewhat warmer. Here, beginners practiced snorkeling and some enjoyed beach volleyball (it looked tough due to the strong wind).
During this time, the staff actively came to the participants to take photos while guiding us on poses, so we ended up with many memorable pictures. The meal consisted of hamburgers and boiled beans, which were quite delicious.
After eating, we took a tour around an area with many sea turtles (there were a few, but it was difficult to capture the right moment for photos) and moved to a snorkeling point at the coral reef. Due to the cold weather and strong wind, the perceived temperature was quite low, and many people opted out of snorkeling. However, I decided to give it a try since I had bought a waterproof camera that can be used at depths of 15 meters for this day.
Equipped with a life jacket and mask, I entered the water, but I was overwhelmed by the coldness for a while. However, I soon got used to it. The staff threw food from the boat, attracting a lot of fish.
It was my first time snorkeling, but I was pleasantly surprised at how well I managed. Once we finished and got back on the boat, the wind blew through, and my body temperature dropped quickly. "Whoa! It's cold!" It felt much warmer in the water. After being advised by the guide, I changed out of my wet clothes into dry ones, which made me feel much better.
I brought a rash guard and reef boots, but the reef boots were unnecessary, and going barefoot was fine. I didn't buy a hoodie, but I think it would have been a good idea.
事前にサンドバーの潮位をネットで調べてこの日にしたので、気温が思っていたより低くて強い風も吹いていたのは残念でしたが、それでも楽しい一日を満喫できました。
参加者70人中日本人が40人(その中に新婚さん10組!)という構成で、日本語ガイド船と英語ガイド船の2隻に分かれて出航しました。
日本人だけの船なので、まあ気楽と言えば気楽です。
サンドバーに着いて、階段から海に入ると腰のあたりまでドボンと浸かりました。うぁ~冷たい!
数メートル前進すると、すぐ浅くなって・・一番浅いところはくるぶし程度です。浅いところは、多少暖かく感じます。ここで、シュノーケル初心者は練習をしたり、ビーチバレーに興じたり(風が強いので、大変そうでした)。
この間、スタッフの方が積極的に参加者の所に来て(ポーズを指導して)撮影してくれるので、思い出深い記念の写真が沢山出来ました。
食事は、ハンバーガーと煮豆?なかなか美味しかったです。
食後は、ウミガメが多いエリアをぐるっと回って(数匹いましたが、撮影タイミングは難しいです)、シュノーケリングを行う珊瑚礁のポイントに移動です。
この日は、寒くて風も強かったために体感温度はかなり低く、シュノーケリングをパスする人もかなりありましたが、折角なので私は頑張る事にしました。そう!この日のために、水深15mまで使えるデジカメを購入して来たのですから・・。
ライフジャケットとマスク類の装備を身につけて海に入ったものの、水の冷たさにしばらく圧倒されていましたが、その内慣れてきました。船上から餌をまいてくれたので、魚がすごく集まって来ます。
初めてのシュノーケリングでしたが、思ったより上手く出来てちょっと嬉しくなってしまいました。
終わって、船上に上がると風が吹き抜けて一気に体温が下がりました「うお~!寒い」海の中の方がよほど暖かかったように思えます・・ガイドさんに言われて、濡れている物を脱いで乾いた服に着替えたら、だいぶ楽になりました。
私はラッシュガードやリーフブーツを用意して行きましたが、リーフブーツは不要で裸足でOKでした。
パーカーは買わなかったのですが、あった方が良いと思いました。

The tour went quite far south in search of dolphins, and both my parents and I were moved to see nearly 30 dolphins!! The wetsuits are available for rent, but they help prevent sunburn and provide buoyancy in the water, so whether you're confident in swimming or not, wearing one allows you to focus on the dolphins, which was thrilling and made for an amazing day~♪
I didn't have high expectations for anything other than the dolphins, but the cheeseburgers and the hospitality of the staff were excellent! The tour also includes water activities like snorkeling and kayaking after lunch, so you definitely should experience them!!

が、スタッフの方が一生懸命さがしてくださり、最後イルカと一緒におよぐことができました。
根気強くさがしてくれたスタッフに感謝です。
親子のイルカ、かわいかたなぁ

Off Waikiki Beach.
Even though we only went out to where we could see the coastline, we were able to see sea turtles swimming.
I've experienced snorkeling in various countries, but this was my first encounter with sea turtles.
It was truly amazing, and my son was thrilled as well.
There are no life jackets available for rent.
They do provide foam sticks that can be used for underwater relaxation therapy.
I recommend that those who are not confident swimmers bring their own floaties or similar items.
Especially during this time of year, the waves are high and swimming can be difficult.
While sailing, if you are at the front of the yacht, you might get splashed with water.
Be careful in winter as it can be cold.
ワイキキビーチ沖。
海岸が見えるくらいまでしか出ていないのにウミガメが泳ぐ姿を見ることができました。
シュノーケリングは色々な国の海で経験していますがウミガメとの遭遇は初めてでした。
もう大感動です。息子も大喜びでした。
ライフベストの貸し出しはありません。
水中リラクゼーションエステ?で使うような発砲スチロールの棒は貸してくれます。
泳ぎに自信のない方はご自分で浮き輪など用意されることをお勧めします。
特に今の時期は波も高く泳ぎにくいので。
セーリング中はヨットの前方に居ると水をかぶってしまいます。
冬は寒いので要注意です。

The island wasn't completely exposed; at the shallowest point, the water was up to my ankles, but it was beautiful and fun enough. I enjoyed beach volleyball and snorkeling, and the lunch was very delicious. It was also lucky to encounter sea turtles while moving by boat. As an optional tour, I was quite satisfied, but the air conditioning on the shuttle bus from the port back to the hotel was too strong, making it tough on my chilled body after coming out of the sea. Other participants were also shivering and saying it was cold. I recommend bringing something like a thicker hoodie to wear.
It's a tour I would like to experience at least once.
島が完全に出ていた訳ではなく、1番浅いところで
くるぶし位まであったけど、充分綺麗で楽しかったです。
ビーチバレーやシュノーケリングも楽しかったし、ランチも大変美味しかったです。
船で移動中に海亀達に遭遇したのも、ラッキーでした。
オプショナルツァーとしては、充分満足でしたが、
帰りの港からホテルへの送迎バスのエアコンが効きすぎていて、海から上がって冷えた身体には、厳しかったです。
他の参加者も寒い寒いと震えていました。
少し厚めのパーカーなど、はおれるものを持参する事をお勧めします。
一度は行ってみたいツァーです。

My child wanted to go, so we participated. The sandbar was not completely exposed due to the tidal changes at that time.
The water was up to my knees.
The staff was quick and attentive to safety. It was cold, so my child was taken onto the boat partway through, but they continued to check if he was warm enough, which I appreciated.
I think it might depend on the season, but I would like to look into when the sandbar is fully exposed and participate again.
子供が行って見たいと言って参加しました。
サンドバーがやはりと言うか時間帯による潮の満ちひきなので完全に砂浜にはなってませんでした。
膝までつかる状態でした。
スタッフの対応はキビキビしていて安全に配慮して頂いてました。寒かったので子供は途中からボートに上げてもらってましたが、その後も寒くないか気に掛けてもらっていて有難かったです^^
時期にもよるのかと思いますが砂浜が完全に出る状態のときを調べてまた参加したいと思います。

I had been wanting to go to Hawaii for a long time, so I applied without hesitation. Since the plan was dependent on the weather, I was aware of the risks, but luckily it was sunny and the weather was very pleasant. However, the wind was strong, and my hairstyle was a mess. As a result, to reach the water level up to my knees, I had to walk while getting soaked up to my waist, so a swimsuit is definitely a must. My friend and I enjoyed walking in our pants, completely drenched, up to the knee-deep water. Although we couldn't see the "land," it was a unique experience that brought me great satisfaction.
ハワイに行ったら絶対に行きたいと思い迷わず申込みをしました。天気に左右されるプランの為、
リスク承知でしたが・・・運良く晴れてとても気持ちの良い天気でした~ただ風が強くヘアスタイルは散々。
結果、膝下の水位に行くまでに腰まで浸かって歩く為やはり
水着は必須ですね☆私と友達は、パンツのままずぶ濡れで膝下の水位まで歩き堪能しました。
「陸」は見えず残念ではありますがここならではの体験でしたので非常に自己満足です。

This is my second time at Dolphin University 🎶
I was able to see many dolphins up close again, which was really great! The staff are all very fun people and they kindly teach you a lot of things! If you want to do something other than shopping in Hawaii, I definitely recommend it!\(^o^)/
2回目のイルカ大学です♫
前回よりも近くでまた沢山のイルカが見れたので
すごくよかったです(^^) スタッフの方はとても楽しい人ばっかりで、
また丁寧に色々教えてくれます!
ハワイで買い物以外に何かしたいなら絶対に
オススメです\(^o^)/

Even in the shallowest areas, the seawater reached up to my knees. I checked the low tide times, but that was the limit during my stay. The weather was bad and it was very cold. I think it would look much prettier if the weather were good, but if the weather is bad, I don't think it's worth spending a lot of money to go.
Snorkeling was a lot of fun because, despite the cold, I was able to see many fish. There was also a sea turtle that the captain had helped in the past, and it was very friendly, swimming around the boat the whole time. The captain and the staff were all very cheerful, and it was truly enjoyable. We danced and sang on the boat, which was really fun.
At the end, they said, "Please come back in the summer," so I thought that perhaps the sandbar would look nicer in the summer.
一番浅いところでもひざぐらいまで海水がありました。
干潮の時間も調べていきましたが、滞在中はそれが限界でした。
天気も悪く非常に寒かったです。
天気が良ければもっと綺麗に見えるのかなと思いますが、天気が悪ければ高いお金を出してまで行くものでもないかと思います。
シュノーケリングは、寒さを我慢して行くとたくさんの魚が見れたのでとても楽しかったです。
また昔キャプテンが助けたというウミガメがとてもなついており、船の周りをずっと泳いでいます。
キャプテンやスタッフの方たちはとても陽気な方たちばかりで、とてもとても楽しかったです。船上で踊ったり、歌ったり、それは本当に楽しかったです。
最後に「次は夏に来てください。」と言われたので、多分夏のほうがサンドバーが綺麗に見えるのではないかと思いました。

The boat heading to the sandbar had strong winds and cooler temperatures, so it was a bit chilly. The sandbar appeared suddenly and was very mysterious. I think it would have been even better if the weather had been nice. The lunch on the boat was also delicious. Snorkeling was pleasant, but it was a pity that I couldn't see much coral.
サンドバーに向かう船では風が強く気温も低めだったので少し寒かったです。サンドバーは突然現れとても神秘的でした。天気が良ければもっと良かったと思います。船のランチもおいしかったです。シュノーケリングは気持ちよかったですが、サンゴがあまり見えなかったのが残念でした。
Aloha! Thank you for joining the Captain Bruce's Paradise Ocean Tour.
The weather was a bit disappointing, wasn't it?
Please come back and visit us again! I hope the sun will be shining brightly on that day! Mahalo.

Swimming with wild dolphins and sea turtles felt like a dream☆ I also got to see whales, and it was truly fun. The malasadas and homemade cheeseburgers were amazing as well.
And I can't say enough about the wonderful staff! They were the best^^ I will definitely join again! Please take care of me next time♪
野生のイルカ、海ガメと泳げるなんて夢のようでした☆クジラも見れて、本当に楽しかったです。マラサダに手作りチーズバーガーも最高でした。

The sea turtles kept here swim around the boat, allowing for a very close view. I thought the tour was family-oriented. As two women, we felt it was a bit lacking. I would recommend it for families with small children. The lunch was very satisfying and fulfilling. There was also a child who got injured on board, but I thought it was wonderful how quickly the captain responded.
こちらで飼われている海ガメが船の周りを泳いでくれるので、とても間近で見られます。
ツアー内容は、ファミリー向けだなと思いました。女二人だと少し物足りなさを感じました。小さなお子様がいるご家庭にはオススメです。
ランチがとても充実していて満足でした。また船内で怪我をしてしまった子がいたのですが、キャプテンが素早く対応をしていて素晴らしいと思いました。
