I participated at five months pregnant, of course, at my own risk.

At first, I signed up for the first session, but since it was fully booked, I was recommended to join the second session, which was also nearly full in the shuttle van. It seems to be quite popular. During the ride, a DVD was playing, but few people were watching, as most were sleeping.

When we arrived at the location, we borrowed costumes and danced in a nearby field since we were going to do hula dancing first. It was over in no time, but the explanations were clear and it was fun.

Up until this point, everyone, including the others, was energetic.

We boarded the boat and arrived at the dolphin point, but there were several other boats waiting, and we had to wait patiently for our turn. During that time, we saw a few pods of dolphins. They were spinning, and there were baby dolphins too. We waited for the guide's instructions before entering the water, but the pod quickly disappeared. We saw them several times from the boat, but only caught a glimpse of them in the water.

After that, we headed to the snorkeling point, but by this time, some people started to feel seasick. I had a bad feeling too, but I thought it would be better to snorkel than stay on the boat. Following the guide, we discovered a sea turtle, and I was thrilled to see a wild sea turtle. The fish were swimming gracefully, which was also amazing.

However, perhaps due to the worsening weather, I started to feel cold. I swam until I reached my limit but got back on the boat early, and afterwards, I curled up due to seasickness and the cold. More than half of the people around me, who had been energetic just moments ago, seemed to be feeling sick as well, and we took our handmade hamburgers and chips to go. When we got off the boat, it was really strange, but my seasickness suddenly disappeared, and I was munching on a hamburger in the car, while my husband looked really miserable, haha.

I didn't get to fulfill my dream of swimming with dolphins, but overall, it was a good experience. Motion sickness medication is a must.

妊娠５ヶ月での参加でした。勿論自己責任。

最初、一部を申し込んだのですが、満席の為二部を勧められそちらに参加しましたが、二部も送迎のバン？はほぼ満席状態でした。人気なのでしょう。
行きの社内でDVDが流れていましたが、見ている人は少なく、皆寝ていました。
現地に着くと、先にフラダンスをやるという事で傍の原っぱにて衣装を借りて皆で踊りました。あっという間でしたが説明もわかりやすく楽しかったです。

他の方達含め、元気が良いのはここまでです。

船に乗り、イルカポイントに到着するも他の船も何隻か待っていて自分達の番が来るのをひたすら待ちました。その間に何回かイルカの群れを見ました。スピンもしていたし、子供イルカも居ました。
ガイドさんの指示を待って海に入りましたが、群れはあっという間に行ってしまいました。船上では何度も見れましたが、海の中では一瞬見れただけでした。
この後、今度はシュノーケルポイントに向かいましたが、この辺りで船酔いする人が出てきて、自分もちょっと嫌な予感はしましたが、船上に居るよりは良いと思いシュノーケルしました。ガイドさんについていくとウミガメを発見、野生のウミガメには感動しました。魚も悠々と泳いでいて感動です。
しかし、雲行きがあまり良くなかったせいか体が冷えてきて、限界まで泳ぎましたが早めに船に上がり、その後は襲ってきた船酔いと寒さでずっとうずくまっていました。
さっきまで元気だった周りの方達も半分以上酔っていたようで、手作りハンバーガーもチップスもお持ち帰りしました。船を下りると、本当に不思議なことにケロっと船酔いが治り私は車内でハンバーガーを頬張っていましたが旦那さんは本当に辛そうでした　笑
イルカと泳ぐ夢は叶いませんでしたが、全体的に良い体験でした。　酔い止め必須です。

Last time, I signed up for a different tour, but I was just desperately swimming after dolphins and hardly saw any. With Dolphin You, the captain predicts the dolphins' movements and takes you to the right spots, so I was able to see the pods without chasing them around. Also, the life vests allow you to adjust the air yourself, so those confident in swimming can dive, which made it a lot of fun. My 8-year-old daughter, who is good at swimming, was crying because she wanted to use an adult vest instead of a child-sized one, and Shanti kindly comforted her and switched it to an adult vest. I was very satisfied as I was able to see many dolphins during all three tries. At the turtle point, we were allowed to snorkel slowly, and I was able to swim with 4 to 5 turtles for a long time. This tour is truly filled with consideration for making guests enjoy themselves, and I was moved by that. It was completely different from the previous dolphin tour and other tours, as I always felt that they prioritized the guests. The hamburgers were delicious, and trying hula dancing turned out to be surprisingly fun. If I want to encounter dolphins again next time, I will choose this tour. Thank you, Shanti, Kaina, Ila, and Steve!!

前回は別のツアーに申し込んだのですが、イルカを追いかけて必死に泳いでいるだけで、ほとんど姿をみられませんでした。ドルフィンユーの場合は、キャプテンがイルカの動きを予測してポイントに落としてくれるので、追いかけ回すことなくイルカの群れを見ることが出来ました。また、ライフベストも自分で空気の量を調整できるため、泳ぎに自信のある人は潜ったりすることも出来るので、とても楽しめました。泳ぎの得意な８歳の娘が子供用のベストでなく、大人用のものを使いたいと泣いていたところ、シャンティが優しく慰めてくれ、大人用のベストに替えてくれました。３回のトライすべてでたくさんのイルカを見ることが出来て大満足でした。ウミガメのポイントでもゆっくりとシュノーケルをさせてくれたので、４~５匹のウミガメとずっと泳いでいられました。このツアーは、本当にゲストを楽しませようという心遣いに溢れており、感激しました。前回のイルカツアーや、別のツアーとは全く違い、ゲストのことを第一に考えてくれていることを常に感じていました。ハンバーガーも美味しかったし、フラダンスもやってみると意外と楽しかったです。次回もイルカに遭いたくなったらこのツアーで行きます。シャンティ・カイナ・イラ・スティーブ、みんなありがとうね！！

ウミガメシュノーケリング　ホロカイ・カタマラン号　高確率でウミガメに会えるタートルキャニオンへ！ソフトドリンク&スナック付き＜3時間／英語／ワイキキホテル発＞

Snorkeling included is the best! シュノーケリング付き最高！

Reviewed by: S＆J from 湘南

Sailing off Waikiki at an incredible speed was refreshing! It was also great to enjoy snorkeling.

I was told, "The turtles are used to people and won't be scared to come close, but don't touch them," but I never expected they would come so close... There were always 3 to 4 turtles swimming nearby, and when they surfaced for air, they were so close that I could almost touch them—they're really big.

The sailing speed was fast, and it was quite bumpy, but as long as I looked out at the distance and enjoyed the wind, it was fine. I'm glad I chose one that fit my needs among the various catamaran sailing options. There were no other Japanese people, but I didn't feel particularly worried about that.

すごいスピードでワイキキ沖を爽快セイリング！シュノーケリングも楽しめてとても良かったです。
『カメは人になれてて怖がらないで近くにくるけど触っちゃダメ』と言ってたけど、あんなに近づいてくるとは思わなかった・・・。３~４匹のカメが常に近くをまわってたし、息継ぎに浮き上がってくると触れるくらい近くとにかくデカイ。
帆走スピードが速くて、結構揺れたけど、遠くをみるようにして風に当たって楽しく参加したら大丈夫でした。
いろんなカタマランセイリングがある中から、自分のニーズにあったのを選んでよかったです。日本人は誰もいなかったけど特に心配もないし。

OK, there was a pod of 200 dolphins swimming all around our boat - which was a trip, sunset views were awesome - you won't see a sunset like this one in Waikiki, believe me I went one TWO sailing trips in Waikiki last week, which were great too ... but on this trip we actually saw the sun slip away behind the ocean horizon. The crew was so friendly and chill and accommodating ... no pressure ... no trying to shamelessly sell you stuff, actually, Captain Patrick shared all the free stuff to do along the coast, we saw the Black Pearl from Pirates of the Caribbean and the new Disney hotel too. The snorkeling was great! The food was simple and healthy and tasty! Yum! I understand that this is a newer tour so we only had about 18 people on a 49 capacity boat .... so lots of room to stretch out and get some tanning done. Thank you all at the Ocean Joy for such an amazing experience! We will be back the Kai oli oli again!!

GREAT DOLPHIN WATCH CRUISE!!!

Reviewed by: Ms Rosie

We seen so many dolphins and we were even fortunate enough to see Bottlenose Dolphins which are much much bigger than the frequent spinner dolphins. Bottlenose Dolphins do not come around the islands very often so this was a real treat, maybe even a once in a lifetime opportunity!!

The crew was very friendly and they held my sister's hand in the water because she is afraid of sea animals. But ONCE she put her mask on and placed her head under the water, it was a whole different world for her filled with beautiful colored fish and a huge reef system that surrounded her.

Wonderful crew, Tasty food, everyone on-board was really friendly and after a nice dip out in the deep blue ocean, you are treated to an open bar. Great Stuff! Thank you Hawaiiactivities.com and Ocean Joy Cruises for a wonderful dolphin watch and cruise!

I've been on other snorkeling cruises but was REALLY IMPRESSED with the boat and the crew. The boat was very clean, open and comfortable. Having great his and her bathrooms was a nice plus as well. The crew were fun, informative and professional. They make you feel very comfortable and taken care of. Swimming with the turtles was a total treat. There's a crew member in the water with you the entire time and they are not only looking out for your safety but are answering questions about the fish, turtles and the total area. In addition, they are educating you so you really "swim" away knowing more than when you came. The sailing portion was really relaxing and peaceful. It's great to see Waikiki & Diamond Head Crater from the water and being able to leave on this trip from the Hilton is a real plus. Even the food and snacks were good.

My dream has come true! 夢がかないました！

Reviewed by: YOKO

Swimming with wild dolphins in the ocean has been a dream of mine for many years. I thought it would be difficult, so I participated with the expectation of being lucky to catch even a glimpse. However! Not only did I see them, but from the boat, I witnessed dolphins jumping, and once in the water, there were pods of dolphins coming one after another! I could even hear their cute sounds, and it was truly moving.

Additionally, all the staff were cheerful, and I believe it would have been a fun tour even if we hadn't seen any dolphins. After getting off the boat, we had a hula lesson in a cool shade, which also became a heartwarming and enjoyable memory. I definitely want to participate again the next time I go to Hawaii.

野生のイルカと海で一緒に泳ぐのが長年の夢でした。
でも難しいだろうから、『ちらっとでも見れたらラッキーだな』ぐらいの期待で参加したのです。
ところが！ちらっとどころか、ボート上からはイルカたちのジャンプが、海に入ればイルカの群れが次から次へと！！かわいい鳴き声も聞こえ、もう感動でした。
また、スタッフも皆陽気で、もしイルカが見れなかったとしても楽しいツアーになったと思います。
ボートを降りた後は涼しい木陰でフラレッスン、こちらも心癒される楽しい思い出となりました。
今度ハワイに行ったときにも是非参加したいです。

It was fun. 楽しかった

Reviewed by: みくろ

I was picked up from the hotel where I was staying, passed by the "What Tree Is That?" tree, and arrived at the port. After a bathroom break, we boarded the boat. Before reaching the dolphin point, we were lucky enough to see a rare whale at the end of April. We snorkeled at the dolphin point. When we were told to "look down," we saw many dolphins! The underwater world, illuminated by sunlight, was beautiful.

My 4-year-old child was indeed scared of the ocean, but the staff helped by putting them on a kayak, and they seemed to have a great time.

The hula dance while feeling the wind was also enjoyable, and the CD of the photos I purchased turned out to be excellent. I brought an underwater camera, but I couldn't compete with the professionals.

Since it was April, I was glad I brought a hoodie.

宿泊してたホテルまで迎えにきてもらい、この木なんの木の横を通過し、港に到着。トイレタイムの後船に乗り込みます。イルカポイントに着く前に４月末には珍しい鯨に会えました。イルカポイントでシュノーケル。look downと言われ海の中を見るとイルカがたくさん！日の光が注ぐ海の中は綺麗でした。
４歳の子どもは、やはり海を恐がりましたが、スタッフがカヤックに乗せてくれて、楽しそうでした。

風を感じてのフラダンスも楽しかったし、購入した写真のＣＤも、申し分なく出来上がりの良いものでした。私も水中カメラを持って行きましたが、プロには敵わないです。

時期が４月ということもあり、パーカーを持って行って正解でした。

It was my first experience with snorkeling!

Even though I wore a life jacket, it was quite challenging for me, who can't swim, to get used to using the fins ^^;

However, they assessed how well each participant could swim at the beginning and provided support, so I was able to swim with peace of mind ;)

The water wasn't as clear as in photos or stories, so I couldn't see the dolphins clearly underwater or swim with them, but I could hear their voices! ((＠0＠) From the boat, I was able to see several mother-dolphin pairs and groups☆

The captain and crew were incredibly kind, and the hamburgers were delicious ♥ When I was on the kayak, I got to see a sea turtle up close, which was truly moving (:_; )

And above all...

The ocean was so beautiful!!!!

I forgot everything and felt so relaxed ´ω`

Winter sea 冬の海

Reviewed by: 小春

I participated in an early morning cruise. When it comes to the winter sea, it's all about whales. I was torn between a whale tour and this one, but I decided to take a chance on the winter sea and chose this tour.

Although it was a dolphin tour, we stopped at a point where we could see whales at the beginning of the cruise, and I was able to see my long-awaited whales. I was also satisfied to see a mother and baby whale!

Then, we encountered many dolphins, and just when I thought we found one, a group of a dozen dolphins appeared, which was so exciting! The snorkeling afterward was also great, as I saw a lot of fish.

I'm not a strong swimmer, but thanks to the life jacket, I was able to snorkel with peace of mind. This time, there were three generations participating, from 0 to 71 years old, and my 3-year-old son enjoyed snorkeling, while my in-laws also had a great time on the cruise and snorkeling.

There was a staff member who was fluent in Japanese, which was reassuring. I couldn't eat lunch on the boat due to a bit of seasickness, but the staff kindly packaged it for me to take home. I ate it at the hotel after returning, and it was light and delicious.

その後のシュノーケリングもお魚がたくさんみえました。

☆ I was deeply moved by the honu (sea turtle) ☆ ☆ ホヌに大感動 ☆

Reviewed by: うみぼうず

I participated in mid-November.

The day before, I went to take sunset photos while confirming the meeting place, and since the catamaran had just returned, I assumed this was the right spot. However, when I arrived on the day, the catamaran was gone, and I panicked. I asked a nearby hotel staff, and they said it was "five hotels down." Since I was cutting it close to the meeting time, I dashed over, and just as I did, the catamaran was coming towards the beach from offshore. (Sweat, sweat, sweat)
≪Refer to the sign in the photo for the meeting place...≫

I misunderstood because the hotel was part of the same group.
(The meeting place is in front of Outrigger Reef on the Beach, but I ended up at Outrigger Waikiki on the Beach. Please be careful.) Looking back, the catamaran that returned was also a different boat.

At the reception, there was one staff member who understood some Japanese (they had a Japanese reference book), but the other staff seemed not to understand Japanese.

Once on board, there was an explanation of precautions, all in English (which is to be expected).

About five minutes in, my wife got seasick. (I recommend taking seasickness medication for those who are prone to it.)
When we reached the turtle habitat point, snorkeling and free diving began (you can dive about 10 meters).
We stayed there for about an hour.
We encountered over ten turtles, which was incredibly moving.

After that, we cruised around the bay and were able to see Diamond Head and the hotel cluster from the sea, which was also impressive.

Next time, I would like to take the sunset cruise and see the sunset from the boat.

１１月中旬に参加しました。

参加前日にサンセットの写真を撮りに行きながら集合場所の確認に行き丁度カタマランが帰って来たのでこの場所で良いと思い込み、当日を迎えてその場所に行くとカタマランが無く、焦ってしまい近くのホテルのスタッフに聞くと『５つ先のホテル』との事でした。
集合時間ギリギリだったのでダッシュして行くと沖合からカタマランがビーチに向かって来ました。（汗・汗・汗）
≪集合場所は、写真の看板を参考に・・・≫

ホテルが同じグループだったので勘違いしてしまいました。
（アウトリガー・リーフ・オン・ザ・ビーチ前が集合場所ですが、アウトリガー・ワイキキ・オン・ザ・ビーチ前に行ってしまいました。要注意して下さい。）
今、思うと帰って来たカタマランも違う船でした。

受付では、片言の日本語が解るスタッフ（日本語の参考書を持ってました。）が一人いましたが、その他のスタッフは日本語が解らない様子でした。

乗船してから注意事項等説明が有ります。すべて英語（当然ですよね。）

５分位で嫁さんは、船酔いでダウン。（船に弱い方は酔止め

Not for beginning snorkelers

Reviewed by: humuhumunukunukuapua'a

I went on this tour with my friend, both of us have grown up around the water and have been snorkeling many times in Hawaii. On this tour, they take you to a snorkel spot called turtle canyon. However, turtle canyon is between 40 and 50 feet deep and your basically staring down at a reef that is so far down there are scuba divers below you AND it is not a secluded snorkeling spot but rather an open ocean spot far away from the shore of waikiki beach... like, past where the surfers are!
I found it to be a little scary and the "guide" kept swimming off leaving my friend and I to chase him and not guiding us at all. Once the word "sharks" was mentioned, i swam back to the boat (a 5minute swim back btw).
On another note, the sailing part was lovely and relaxing and we saw TONS OF DOLPHINS, the lunch was good as was the champagne and other drinks. The crew was great as well... except for the snorkel guide that kept leaving us to float alone in the middle of the ocean.

At the end of the tour, we were taught hula dancing. To be honest, I wasn't very enthusiastic at first, but surprisingly, it was fun to dance! I thought it would have been nice to have a bit more time for the hula lesson.

I wish there had been time to change before heading back, but overall, it was a very satisfying tour.

Thank you very much.

イルカともう少し近くで泳げたらよかったな・・と思いましたが、初めて野生のイルカをみれて感動しました。
ウミガメも見れたし、あと船上で食べたハンバーガーもとても美味しかったです。

ツアーの最後にフラダンスを教えてもらうのですが、
正直、初めはあまり乗り気じゃありませんでしたが、
踊ってみると意外にも楽しい！！
もう少しフラレッスン時間があってもよかったと思う位でした。

帰りの着替える時間があればよかったかな？と思いますが、全体的にとても満足のいくツアーでした。

ありがとうございました。

野生のイルカウォッチング＆ウミガメシュノーケリングクルーズ　ジャンボスライダーやSUPも楽しめる！＜ランチ付き／ワイキキ＆コオリナ送迎／日本語または英語ガイド＞

One hundred dolphins! イルカが１００頭！

Reviewed by: 愛

We participated for the first time as a couple. Since we had an early morning meeting, I was nervous about whether we could wake up, but we received a courteous morning call and were able to join without being late. On the way, it was raining, but it cleared up perfectly at the destination, and we were lucky enough to see a rainbow.

Furthermore, shortly after the boat departed, a group of about 100 dolphins greeted us, and we were able to see many of them both from the boat and underwater. The staff were very considerate, ensuring that pregnant participants like me and those with children didn't overexert themselves, which made us feel very safe and allowed us to enjoy the experience. We quickly bonded with the cheerful and friendly staff.

After snorkeling, they kept us entertained by drawing cute flowers and dolphins on our arms with pens and even danced the hula. Both my partner and I are vegetarians, and they accommodated us by preparing the hamburgers in a vegetarian style, making it a truly satisfying tour.

I highly recommend this for beginners, families, and solo travelers alike!

夫婦で初参加しました。
朝早い集合だったので起きられるかドキドキしましたが、丁寧なモーニングコールをいただいて遅刻せずに参加できました。
この日は行きのバスでは雨が降っていましたが現地ではばっちり晴れてくれて、虹まで観えてラッキーでした。
さらに船が出発してからすぐ１００頭程のイルカの群れが出迎えてくれて、船の上からも水中からもたくさん観る事が出来ました。
妊婦の私やお子さん連れの参加者へも無理しないようにと細やかな気遣いをしっかりしてくださり、とても安心して楽しむ事ができました。陽気でフレンドリーなスタッフさん達とすぐに打ち解ける事ができました。
シュノーケリングが終わってからも飽きさせないように、腕にペンでカワイイお花やイルカを書いてくれたり、フラを踊ってくれたり楽しませてくれました。
夫婦とも菜食なのですが、ハンバーガーをベジタリアン仕様にして下さるなど本当に大満足なツアーとなりました。
初心者・家族・ひとり、どんな方にもとてもオススメです！

I was glad to see wild dolphins. I was also surprised by how beautiful the ocean was. My child didn't like snorkeling because it was uncomfortable, but when we used regular pool goggles without fins, they were able to swim happily.

野生のイルカが見れて良かったです。海がきれいなのもビックリ。子供はシュノーケリングが息苦しいと嫌がったが、普段のプールのゴーグルで足ひれも無しにしたら元気に泳げました。

It was fun!! 楽しかった！！

Recently, I participated with three friends. Perhaps because the waves were a bit high, the dolphins didn't swim close to us at first. After several attempts, we were finally able to swim with the dolphins on the last try. It seems they were cautious because they had a baby dolphin with them.

After that, we went to the snorkeling point, but there weren't many unusual fish that day, and the high waves made it feel like we might get seasick just floating in the water, so everyone decided to head back early.

One of my friends completely got seasick. They had prepared hamburgers for us, but while they were getting ready, the boat stopped, and it rocked a lot due to the waves. We all ended up not being able to enjoy the hamburgers and took them back to the hotel instead. The special taro bread hamburger was very delicious, but the seasickness was really tough, so I think it would be more enjoyable if the boat could keep moving during lunch.

The hula lesson afterward was pleasant and fun. I would love to repeat this experience if I have the chance again.

先日、友人と4人で参加させていただきました。
ちょっと波が高かったせいか、イルカは最初全然そばを泳いでくれなく、
何回か飛び込んだあと、最後の1回でイルカと共に泳ぐことができました。
どうやら赤ちゃんイルカを連れていて警戒心が強かったそうです。

その後、シュノーケリングポイントにも行ったのですが、この日はあまり珍しい魚がいなかったのと、やはり波が高くて水に浮いてるだけで酔いそうだったのでみんな早々に引き上げた感じでした。

友人のうちの1人は完全に船酔いでダウン。
ハンバーガーを用意してくれていたのですが、その食事の準備の最中から船が停泊してしまったので、思い切り波に船が揺れてしまい、私達は全員ハンバーガーどころではなく、結局持ち帰ってホテルでいただきました。
特製タロイモパンのハンバーガーということでとてもおいしかったのですが、ちょっとあの船酔いはホントにきついので
出来れば、船は停泊せずに進みながらお昼にしてもらえればもう少し楽しめるかなって思います。

その後のフラレッスンも気持ちよくて楽しかったです。
また機会があったらリピートしてみたいです。

ウミガメシュノーケリング　ホロカイ・カタマラン号　高確率でウミガメに会えるタートルキャニオンへ！ソフトドリンク&スナック付き＜3時間／英語／ワイキキホテル発＞

Cruising is the best. クルージングは最高です。

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

When I arrived at the meeting time, I was informed that the departure would be delayed by an hour, so we ended up waiting around the hotel area. In the promotional photos, there was a large catamaran with blue sails from Outrigger, but the actual boat we boarded was a smaller catamaran with pink sails, and it felt more like a family cruise with three staff members and about ten participants.

It was disappointing that there were no life vests available and that fins couldn't be rented, which limited our snorkeling experience. However, it was great to see many turtles up close.

After that, we cruised about an hour offshore. The wind felt nice, and the color of the sea became increasingly vibrant and beautiful. We went as far as the lighthouse past Diamond Head. We took motion sickness medication, so we were fine, but the boat was quite rocky, and a few people got seasick. The staff was very kind and provided water and ice to those who were feeling unwell. Next time, I would like to join a tour that focuses solely on cruising.

当日集合時間に行くと、１時間遅れでの出発と案内され、ホテル周辺で時間をつぶしての出発となりました。イメージ写真では、アウトリガーの青い帆の大きい目のカタマランでしたが、実際に乗ったのは、ピンクの帆の小さめのカタマランで、スタップ３名と参加者は１０名程度で家族クルーズのような小さいツアーとなりました。
ライフベストがなかったこと、足ひれがレンタルできないので思いっきりシュノーケルできないのは残念でした。ただ、たくさんのカメが近くで見れたのは良かったです。
その後は、１時間ほど沖までクルージングでした。風が気持よく、海の色がどんどん濃くなりとてもきれいでした。ダイアモンドヘッド先の灯台あたりまで行きました。私たちは酔い止めを飲んでいて大丈夫でしたが、揺れがすごくて数人の方が船酔いでダウンされていました。スタッフの対応はとても親切で体調の悪い方には、水や氷を渡したりされていました。次回は、クルージングのみのツアーに参加してみたいです。

和気あいあい わきあいあい

I found this site before my trip, and it looked interesting, so I made a reservation and participated.

I had heard beforehand that there wouldn't be any Japanese participants, but I thought it would be fine and went without hesitation, only to find that we were indeed the only Japanese people there.

However, since everyone was just travelers from different places, we all got along well and enjoyed ourselves without much concern.

Personally, I can hardly speak English, but the staff member was friendly and nice, so I thoroughly enjoyed both the cruising and snorkeling!

The snorkeling spot was off the coast of Waikiki, about 10 meters deep, and there were plenty of fish and sea turtles.

I brought a waterproof digital camera, but I struggled to take good pictures of the sea turtles swimming nearby. Fortunately, a crew member who looked like a dolphin took some really beautiful photos for me.

There were no fins available for rent, just masks and snorkels, and swimming was limited to around the yacht, so it might not be enough for those who are into diving, but beginners can definitely have a great time (which was the case for my wife and me). Everyone participating was in the same boat.

After that, we enjoyed cruising while sailing back to Waikiki, heading towards Diamond Head.

This trip created unforgettable and enjoyable memories.

Since we finished around 10 AM, it was easy to plan our next activities.

I believe breakfast snacks were supposed to be included in the package, but we didn't quite understand the system and missed out. After we got back, we changed at the hotel and had breakfast (or maybe it was brunch?) at Island Vintage Cafe in the Royal Hawaiian Shopping Center, enjoying acai bowls before heading out to Kailua.

You might want to double-check about breakfast???

Also, there are several Outrigger Hotels in Waikiki, so make sure not to confuse the meeting location... (we made that mistake).

Anyway, it was a fantastic time, and I highly recommend it!

旅行前にこのサイトで知って、面白そうなので予約して参加しました。


事前情報で、日本人の参加者がいないって聞いていたものの、なんとかなるかな~と思って、ためらわず行ってみたら、本当に日本人は僕たちだけでした。

しかし、まあ所詮みんないろんなとこからやってきた旅行者同士の似たもの同士なので、あんま気兼ねなく思い思いに楽しんでいます。


個人的に英語はほとんど喋れないけれど、スタッフの兄ちゃんが気さくでいい人だったので、クルージングとシュノーケリングともに満喫させていただきました！！


シュノーケリングのポイントはワイキキの沖、水深１０ｍくらいで、魚や海亀がいっぱいいました。

防水デジカメ持参で行ったのですが、近くで泳ぐ海亀をなかなかうまく写真に収められず苦戦してたら、クリューのイルカみたいな兄ちゃんがすごく綺麗に撮ってくれました。

フィンのレンタルはなく、マスク、シュノーケルのみのレンタルでヨットの周りのみの遊泳なので、ダイビングやっている人には物足りないかもしれませんが、初心者でも十分楽しめます。（まさに今回の自分と妻がそうでした。まあ、参加している人みんな一緒です。）


その後はダイヤモンドヘッド沖まで帆走でクルージングを楽しみつつワイキキに戻りました。



今回の旅行の忘れられない楽しい思い出です。



午前１０時上がりなので、その後の予定も組みやすいです。


パックに軽食の朝ごはんが付いているはずだったのですが、僕らはシステムがよくわからず食いそびれたので、上がった後、ホテルで着替えて、ロイヤルハワイアンショッピングセンターのアイランドビンテージカフェでアサイボウルで朝食（？）を済ませて、カイルアに遊びに行きました。

朝食のとこは要確認かも？？？


あと、アウトリガーホテルはワイキキに何箇所かあるので、集合場所は間違えなきよう。。。。（うちは間違えた）




ともあれ、最高のひと時でした、かなりお勧めですよ！！

It was convenient to participate in the cruise from Waikiki.
No Japanese was understood at all.
The snorkeling time is about one hour.
There were no life jackets available for rent.
You can borrow something like a long tube.
On the way there, we saw a turtle, and on the way back, we saw dolphins.
I think it's good for those who understand English and are good at swimming.

　ワイキキからクルーズできるのが便利で参加しました。
日本語はまったく通じません。
　シュノーケルの時間は1時間位です。
ライフジャケットの貸し出しはありませんでした。
細長い筒のようなものは借りられます。
　行きにはカメ、帰りにはイルカが見えました。
英語がわかって、泳ぎが得意の方には良いと思います。
