It was fun. 楽しかった。

Reviewed by: やっちゃん

I had a wonderful time being watched over by the very kind and humorous Chieko and Dan. There were a total of seven of us: two young couples, my 66-year-old self and my son, and one man from overseas. They held my hand, as I’m not a strong swimmer, and guided me to where the fish and turtles were swimming. I was quite anxious as a beginner and being older, but the one-hour snorkeling experience was just fine. Their advice was to take motion sickness medication if you’re worried about seasickness. I also recommend borrowing a wetsuit to prevent injuries and sunburn. I’m really glad I participated.

とても優しくてユーモラスなチエコさんとダンさん2人に見守られ楽しい時間を過ごす事が出来ました。若いカップル2組、66歳の私と息子、海外の男性1人の計7人でした。泳ぎの苦手な私の手を繋いで、魚や亀の泳いでいる場所を案内してくれました。1時間たっぷりのシュノーケルに、初心者で高齢の私は不安ばかりでしたが、大丈夫でした。アドバイスは、波酔いの心配がある方は酔い止め薬を服用すること。ウェットスーツは怪我や日焼け予防にも借りる事をお勧めします。参加してとても良かったです。

2.5-Hour Turtle Snorkel Sail Tour from Waikiki Beach - Cold Brew Coffee, Snacks & One Drink Included

Chill atmosphere, kind service, and amazing sights among the fish and turtles!

Reviewed by: Nick Pettyjohn

My wife and I had a great time. The two guides, captain and turtle-whisperer, were confident, relaxed, and funny. The pick-up location was incredibly convenient for us, near our hotel on the Waikiki beach strip. The ride to the canyon was just 15 minutes, and looking back on the city was breathtaking.

Once there, we distributed masks and floaty-belts and jumped right in! I foolishly wiped off my mask and it clouded up, but the captain was keen to fix it after I brought it to his attention. The turtle-whisperer was around to spot turtles and check in on our snorkelers, but otherwise we were allowed to roam.

There were quite a few other tour boats and snorkel groups at the site, but we were able to still find turtles and fish while staying a bit away from the groups of other snorkelers. We ended up among a school of black fish and had two turtles swim very close to us! Once while my wife and I were holding hands. A highlight of our vacation!

Don't go into this expecting a private/guided tour of the reef. Instead, it's a relaxing transportation to a great snorkel spot, with equipment included. For this price, I highly recommend it.

It was so much fun

Reviewed by: Fayeka Fateh

Me and my husband had a great time. The guys are very prompt with safety and are very accomodating. We saw turtles and other sea creatures too. My husband was not very confident with snorkeling but they helped him out by getting acquainted with the waters and eventually he gained confidence to snorkel and he enjoyed it a lot later on to see sea life.

Encountered not only dolphins and turtles but also whales!! イルカ、カメだけでなくクジラにも遭遇！！

Reviewed by: カルチョ

We visited Hawaii for our honeymoon. I wanted to see dolphins in the dream destination of Hawaii, so I joined this tour. Although it was an early start, we were lucky enough to encounter not only dolphins but also whales on this tour. I was also thrilled to see sea turtles. The staff were very kind, and there were Japanese-speaking staff members, which made me feel at ease. During snorkeling, I was able to relax and see colorful fish in the beautiful sea. The slide from the boat was also fun. On the way back, we got to see a hula dance, which became a wonderful memory. For those worried about seasickness, I recommend taking motion sickness medication in advance. If you forget, you can also purchase a motion sickness band that is said to be effective on the bus ride there.

新婚旅行で訪れたハワイ。憧れのハワイでイルカも見たいと思い、こちらのツアーに参加しました。
早起きでしたが参加したこのツアーではイルカだけでなく運良くクジラにも出会えることができました。また、ホヌも見れることができとても興奮しました。スタッフの方々もとても親切で日本語対応スタッフもいるので安心して参加できました。シュノーケルでは綺麗な海でゆったりと色鮮やかな魚たちも見ることができました。また、船からの滑り台も楽しかったです。帰りの船上ではフラダンスも見ることができ最高の思い出になりました。船酔いが心配な方はあらかじめ酔い止めを飲んでいくことをお勧めします。忘れた場合は、行きのバスの中で、

I appreciate the hospitality of the guide. ガイドの方のホスピタリティに感謝

Reviewed by: NORIKO

There were two guides, one of whom was a Japanese woman. There were about ten participants, with two Americans and the rest being Japanese. The guides were kind and attentive, allowing us to enjoy the tour with peace of mind. When I initially struggled with breathing through my mouth, the male guide quickly came to help me. The female guide also held my hand and swam with me.

It was drizzling on the day of the tour, and the water level was quite low, so I was glad I borrowed a wetsuit. I was able to see a lot of fish as well.

ガイドの方は2人で、1人は日本人女性の方でした。参加者は10人ぐらいでアメリカ人2人以外はは日本人でした。ガイドの方は親切丁寧に接してくださり、安心してツアーを楽しむ事ができました。わたしが最初口呼吸がうまくできない時、男性ガイドの方がすぐに助けに来てくれました。女性ガイドの方も手を握って一緒に泳いでくださいました。
当日は小雨で水位もかなり低く、ウェットスーツを借りておいてよかったです。魚もたくさん見ることができました。

The instructors were a veteran woman and an American who spoke Japanese well. They were very knowledgeable about Hanauma Bay and took safety into consideration, allowing us to enjoy snorkeling with peace of mind. I heard that they resumed tours in February, but due to environmental protection measures, it can be difficult to make reservations, so I recommend booking early.

インストラクターは、ベテランの女性と日本語が上手なアメリカ人の2人で、ハナウマベイを熟知されていて安全に配慮してくださり、安心して、たっぷりとシュノーケルを楽しめました。2月から本格的にツアーを再開したとのことでしたが、環境保護などから予約が取りにくいツアーなので、早めの予約をお勧めします。

Hanauma Bay Snorkel Tour with Expert Guide & Waikiki Transportation. Free photos!

Outstanding experience!!

Reviewed by: Roger and Susan

Dan and Chieko were great hosts and guides. Dan picked us up and we talked with him quite a bit. He was kind, knowledgeable, and down-to-earth. Chieko was energetic, caring, and knowledgeable. The whole process (pick up and drop off, fitting for flippers, trolley down to the beach, putting on wet suits (additional option), instructions on technique and guidelines, storage of valuables, etc) was smooth from start to finish. This was my partner’s first experience snorkeling; she felt safe and at ease with Dan’s and Chieko’s instructions and guidance. We spent some time in the shallows and then went to deeper parts of the bay. We saw lots of fish! Hanauma Bay is a very special place. Overall, this was an amazing experience that my partner and I highly recommend!!!

We had a big group of us go on this tour. It was seamless from the start. Check in was super easy, the boat ride was quick and so much fun!! The band was incredible!! And the donuts were yummy. When we got to the sandbar instructions were given and we got to go explore and have fun! My daughter actually got stung by a jellyfish while snorkelling and it could have ruined our excursion but the staff were excellent. Got her help immediately and were super attentive and caring to make sure she was doing ok. They even shared their own experiences with jellyfish. She got out in the water and had more fun before we had to head back to shore. Thank you for everything!! If we come back to Oahu we would definitely do another tour!!

Until we arrived at the site, we were guided in Japanese, and we were able to enjoy snorkeling at Hanauma Bay! The water was so clear that we could see the fish beautifully, and it was incredibly fun!
It seems that boats are prohibited at Hanauma Bay, so since you enter from the beach, I think wearing a wetsuit is essential to avoid injury while swimming over the coral reefs!
I had a great time! Thank you very much!

It was tough having to swim closely together with 9 participants. While snorkeling, we had to keep an eye on the guide's position, and it became difficult to swim when everyone was too clustered. I thought it would have been nice to swim a bit more freely.

West Oahu Snorkel Cruise with Dolphin Watch, Kayak, SUP, Waterslide & Lunch

Amazing Morning Out

Reviewed by: Rob

Really enjoyed our Morning out. The crew and Captain made the trip so much better. Honestly, their energy was off the charts, the music was good, enjoyable for all ages (we went as a couple in our mid 20’s and loved it, there were children loving it and parents older than us that were having a blast!)

I’d recommend the photo package, we didn’t get it but looking back and seeing how many pictures Tom took is outstanding. It’s the only photo package I’ve seen so far that guarantees 300 real photos of you minimum.

We’ve done a lot of trips on this holiday and this was probably the best crew I’ve seen. Can’t rate them high enough. Wish I could remember all their names but I can’t. Either way, amazing team to have.

Reviewed by: Jillian Godwin

I’m so glad we booked this excursion during our 2 day whirlwind tour of Oahu. We have a friend that’s on the island so we came over from vacationing on Maui to visit. Check in was super easy. The boat was clean and well kept and the crew was amazing. Loved the live music on the journey to and from the sandbar. Once we arrived, there was a little something for everyone. Paddleboarding, kayaking, hanging out on a floating platform or snorkeling! They even had inner-tubing and banana boat rides for an extra fee. The views of the island were stunning. Trip lasted roughly 3 hours so plenty of time to still explore the island after. Shout out to Preston and Jesse for all the aloha and good vibes. It was a super fun trip and we highly recommend to anyone visiting Oahu. It’s a really great excursion.

My husband and I took our family to Hawaii for spring break. We always at the kids do something different. I thought they might be hesitant, but they tried The banana boat and the bumper boat and loved it, probably one of the most fun things they did on this trip. The only thing I would say I was disappointed about this excursion was that the description said they will provide soda or coke with lunch but we got lemonade instead. The bathroom on the boat also needs to be restocked before taking the next ride out. There were no soaps or hand sanitizer to use. Besides this, we had such a fun time.
