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>

The best morning activity. 最高の朝活

Reviewed by: きむタダ

In the morning, although it was a bit early, I was able to make good use of my time enjoying snorkeling and a cruise. The staff was friendly, and the views from Diamond Head and off the coast of Waikiki were great. The weather on the day I participated was also favorable, and I even got to see a honu (sea turtle), making it the best morning activity.

午前中、少し早めだけれど時間を有効に使ってシュノーケル&クルーズが楽しめて、スタッフもフレンドリーでダイアモンドヘッドやワイキキ沖からの景色も良かったです。参加した日は天候にも恵まれて、ホヌにも会えて最高の朝活でした。

ハナウマ湾シュノーケリング ベテラン日本語ガイドがご案内する少人数制ツアー 貸切プランあり<半日>

I recommend this tour as it is safe for families with children. 子供連れにも安心なツアーでおすすめです。

Reviewed by: kazu8612

We participated as a family of three with our 6-year-old child. There was a brief light rain on the day, but it stopped quickly, so there were no issues. Our tour had five participants, and the instructor led our son, who had a great time. In fact, our son monopolized the instructor, and I felt a bit sorry for the other two participants. At the beach, we saw a lot of beautiful fish.

This was our first experience with serious snorkeling, and everyone, including the child, was very satisfied with the content. The weather was somewhat cloudy that day, so it got a bit cold towards the end. I think wearing a wetsuit would help alleviate the cold and allow for a more enjoyable snorkeling experience.

The instructor was very kind and taught us well.

I would love to participate in this tour again if the opportunity arises.

小1(6歳)の子供と一緒に家族3人で参加しました。当日は小雨が一瞬ぱらついてましたがすぐ止んで問題無しでした。我々含め5人のツアーとなりましたが、インストラクターが息子をリードしてくれて子供もとても楽しんでくれました。というか息子がインストラクターを一人占めしてしまい、他の参加者のお二人には申し訳なかったです。ビーチでは魚が沢山見れてとても綺麗でした。
本格的なシュノーケリングは初めてでしたが、子供もみんな満足できる内容でした。
当日は曇りがちな天気だったので、最後は寒くなってきました。ウェットスーツを来た方が寒さも気にならずにシュノーケリングを楽しめると思います。

インストラクターの方はとても優しく教えてくれていい方でした。

機会があればまた参加したいツアーです。

ハワイ水中スクーター 泳げなくてもOK!シーボブで海底散歩&シュノーケリングクルーズ

Even those in their 80s were able to participate. 80代でも参加できました。

Reviewed by: ももんがー

I participated with my family in their 80s, and it seems everyone had a great time. The hospitality from the staff and other participants was high, and we were blessed with good weather, making it comfortable. Tropical fish gathered around the food in our hands, and if you're lucky, you might see sea turtles swimming by your feet or right in front of you. I think it's also recommendable for elderly people.

**Notes:**
1. It's best to take motion sickness medication first thing in the morning before participating. A few people forgot to take it and got seasick.
2. After getting out of the water, it gets very cold on the boat, so regardless of age or health, everyone needs to wear beach towels, raincoats, or windbreakers to avoid getting cold.
3. Since it's bright, I think it would be good to bring sunglasses. If you have polarized sunglasses for fishing, you might be able to see into the water from the boat when it's sunny.

80代の家族と一緒に参加しました。とても楽しめたようでよかったです。
スタッフや参加者の方々のホスピタリティーも高く、天気にも恵まれたので快適でした。熱帯魚が手元の餌に群がり、運が良ければウミガメが足元の海底や目の前を泳いでいきます。高齢の方にもお勧めできると思います。

【注意】
①朝起きたら、まず酔い止め薬を飲んでから参加したほうがいいです。酔い止めを飲み忘れて何人か船酔いしていました。
②水から出た後、船上はとても寒いので年齢や体調に関わらず"全員"、ビーチタオルやレインコート、ウィンドブレーカーを着て体を冷やさないようにする必要があります。
③眩しいのでサングラスを持っていくとなおいいかと思います。釣り用の偏光サングラスがあれば、晴れていたら船上から海の中を見ることもできるかもしれません。

ハナウマ湾シュノーケリング ベテラン日本語ガイドがご案内する少人数制ツアー 貸切プランあり<半日>

It was fun! 楽しかったです!

Reviewed by: タケノコ

Last time I came to Hawaii, it was stormy at the sandbar, so this time I'm making a comeback at Hanauma. It's a calm place and close to the beach, so it's easy to take a break if you start feeling unwell. This time, one of my friends got seasick, so if you're prone to motion sickness, it might be a good idea to take some medication. Even if you don't go into the water, there are plenty of cute cats and mongooses around, which is very soothing! I definitely want to join again next time!

前回、ハワイ来た時のサンドバーでは、嵐だったので今回はハナウマでリベンジです。
穏やかな場所ですし、浜からも近いから気分が悪くなっても休憩しやすいです。今回は仲間うちで波酔いした人がいたので、乗り物酔いしやすい人は酔い止め飲まれたほうがよいかもです。
海に入らなくても、たくさんの猫やマングースがいるので、可愛くて癒されます!
次もぜひ参加したい!

Thank you, Takenoko, for joining the tour with three people this time. I'm glad you enjoyed snorkeling in a different sea from the sandbar. On the Blue Hawaii Divers tour, we swim for about an hour, so those who are prone to motion sickness may experience some seasickness. For those who are concerned, I recommend taking anti-nausea medication before leaving the hotel to enjoy the tour comfortably.

Also, the cat at Hanauma is very friendly, so for cat lovers, there’s more to enjoy besides the sea. Please do consider repeating your visit when you come back to Hawaii. We are always looking forward to seeing you again. Thank you very much. Mahalo!!

タケノコ様、この度は3名様でツアーにお越しいただき、ありがとうございます。
サンドバーとはまた違った海でシュノーケリングを楽しんでいただけて良かったです。ブルーハワイダイバースのツアーでは1時間程たっぷりと泳ぎに行きますので、乗り物酔いしやすい方は波酔いしてしまう方がいらっしゃいます。ご心配な方はホテルを出発する前に酔い止めのお薬を飲まれた方が快適にツアーを楽しんでいただけると思います。
またハナウマのネコちゃんはとてもフレンドリーですので、ネコ好きの方には海以外にも楽しんでいただけますよ。
ぜひまたハワイにお越しの際には皆様でリピートしてくださいね。いつでもお待ちしております。
本当にありがとうございました。Mahalo!!

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>

I had a great time! 思う存分、楽しめました!

Reviewed by: みっち

We participated with my husband, my mother-in-law, and my sister-in-law. A Japanese guide named Shota was with us.

It was challenging for my mother-in-law due to her leg issues, but the staff provided cheerful support when boarding and while she was seated, which we were truly grateful for.

I was thrilled to see wild dolphins and turtles!

However, I got a bit carried away and went down the boat slide, which left me with whiplash, making things difficult after returning home. I realized that in my 40s, I need to be more selective about activities as my body can't keep up.

Since we swam in the sea and got our swimsuits soaked, everyone changed in public restrooms after we docked before getting on the bus. I think it's better to bring a change of clothes.

The staff were bright and fun, making it a wonderful half-day experience!

私達夫婦と義母、義妹と参加しました。
日本人のしょうたさんがガイドでした。

義母が脚が悪く大変だったのですが、乗船する時や母が座っている時もスタッフの方々が明るくサポートして下さり、本当に有り難かったです。

野生のイルカと亀に会えて嬉しかったです!



調子に乗って、船の滑り台を滑ったらムチウチ状態になり、帰国から大変でした。40代はアクティビティを選ばないと身体がついていかないことを実感しました…

海で泳いで水着がびしょ濡れになるので、寄港してから皆さん公衆トイレで着替えてバスに乗っていました。着替えは持参された方が良いと思います。

スタッフの皆さん、明るく楽しく盛り上げてくれて半日満喫出来ました!

5-in-1 Waikiki Fun Cruise with Snorkeling, Water Slide, Trampoline, Kayak & SUP - E Sea Diver

Awesome experience for my son and his friends!

Reviewed by: Shakadad

I took my son, daughter, and my son's two friends on this cruise for my son's birthday and they had a blast! The crew got them sized for their snorkels and fins and they had so much fun swimming with all the fish in the clear water! The kids loved jumping on the inflatable trampoline, going down the slide, and especially loved jumping off the top deck of the boat! They raced each other on kayaks and the stand up paddle boards and had tons of fun. The crew were very accommodating and friendly! They even had snacks and drinks for everyone, which the kids devoured. My kids and my son's friends had a memorable day in the water and I got some great pictures to remember his birthday!

5-in-1 Waikiki Fun Cruise with Snorkeling, Water Slide, Trampoline, Kayak & SUP - E Sea Diver

GREAT activity for families w/ kids of different ages!

Reviewed by: KaimukiMom

This was SUCH a fun experience for my kids and their friends (ages 7 - 12). They got to do all five activities and didn't have any wait at all for 4 (there was a short wait for the stand-up paddle, but because there were four other things for them to have fun doing, they didn't notice at all). The crew was fabulous. They let the kids jump off the boat from different parts and had great snacks that the kids gobbled up. We asked them what they liked the best and they said they loved all the activities.
The stand-up paddling was probably the biggest hit. The snorkel and kayak and jumping off the boat (extra LOL) was next. Slide and trampoline after that. Since they're smaller/lighter, it was harder for them to jump on the trampoline -- adults will be able to make it bounce more. But yes, over all, AMAZING experience. Just a reminder that the harbor is paid parking so make sure to be ready for that. Hope you all enjoy it like we did! :)

Unchanging stability 変わらぬ安定感

Reviewed by: vanilla

This was my second time participating in this tour. I usually join the morning sessions, including those from other companies, but this time I thought I’d try the 12 PM session. Just like last time, the staff were all very pleasant. It’s a reliable tour. The visibility wasn’t great this time, but we saw more than five turtles and a decent number of fish. It lasts about two and a half hours, and the fact that it departs right from the heart of Waikiki makes it highly recommended for enjoying such an experience just a bit offshore. I also appreciated that they provide fins along with the snorkeling set.

このツアーには2回目の参加でした。他社のも含めいつも朝イチの方にさんかしてたのですが、たまには午後にしてみようかと今回は12時の回にしてみました。前回同様スタッフはみなさん感じよく。安定感あるツアーです。今回は透明度が今ひとつでしたが、亀さんは5匹以上、魚はまぁまぁいました。2時間半程度で、しかもワイキキど真ん中からのツアー、ワイキキからちょっと沖にでてこれだけ楽しめる、というのは変わらずおすすめ!シュノーケルセットに加えてフィンも貸してくれるのも結構うれしいポイントです。

My third-grade daughter also participated. I was a bit worried because she isn't very good at swimming, but she was full of curiosity and I had no worries at all. We offered a prayer and headed to the spot on a beautiful boat. We jumped into the sea and followed the leader! We swam quite a bit and got to see some adorable dolphins. This became the best memory of our trip. Floating in the sea, swimming, and gazing at the island was so healing. The staff kept saying that this is the real Hawaii. I want to participate again.

Dear Mana,

Thank you for joining our tour this time. It was truly lucky to see the sea turtles, wasn't it? The Blue Hawaii Divers tour might be the best swimming tour among the many Hanauma Bay tours available. We wanted everyone to see various fish and sea turtles, and perhaps Dan ended up swimming a bit too much because of that. We hope you won't hesitate to come back to Hawaii again with your son. We look forward to seeing you again. Thank you very much. Mahalo!!

Mana様、この度はツアーにお越しいただき、ありがとうございます。
ウミガメにも会えて本当にラッキーでしたね。ブルーハワイダイバースのツアーは数あるハナウマ湾のツアーの中で、一番泳ぐツアーかもしれません。皆様にいろんなお魚やウミガメなど見て欲しくて、ついついDanも泳ぎ過ぎてしまったのかもしれません。これに懲りずにまたハワイにお越しの際には息子さんといご一緒にリピートしてくださいね。またお会いできるのをお待ちしております。本当にありがとうございました。Mahalo!!

I was able to meet a sea turtle. ウミガメに会えました。

Reviewed by: ルルル

I was picked up at my hotel in Honolulu, and after about a 40-minute drive with the instructor and others, we arrived at the bay while listening to stories about Hawaii's traffic conditions. Since it's a protected beach, we watched a lecture video before entering. The way there was downhill, so I didn't need to take the shuttle. This beach is shallow, so it's more like playing in the water than snorkeling. However, it's suitable for families and beginners. The sea turtles are in deeper areas, but we were able to see a turtle eating on the rocks. The guide adjusts to your skill level, so I think you can participate with peace of mind.

ホノルルのホテルまで迎えに来てもらい、インストラクターさんの車で約40分、他の方と同乗でしたが、ハワイの交通事情等お話しを聞きながらドライブでベイに到着。自然保護されている浜なので入場までレクチャービデオ見たりします。行きは下りなのでシャトルに乗らずとも平気でした。この浜は浅いのでシュノーケリングというか水遊び的な感じですね。でもその分、家族連れでも初心者でも大丈夫。ウミガメは深いところにいるので泳いでいく場所に行きますが岩場でご飯食べるウミガメさんに会えました。ガイドさんもレベルに合わせてくれるので安心して参加できると思います。

Excellent ☆☆☆☆☆ 最高☆☆☆☆☆

Reviewed by: TOKO

We participated as a family of three (a couple and our 13-year-old daughter) who loves snorkeling and dolphins. When we arrived at the snorkeling point, we could see dolphin fins from the boat, and we even saw them jumping! That alone brought us so much joy.

There were about 70 participants that day. Before joining, I checked reviews that suggested staying close to the guide in the water, so we made sure to keep near them. When a pod of dolphins appeared, the guide shouted out directions, and we were able to see the dolphins... it was truly moving! Underwater, we could even hear the sounds of the dolphins. I didn't notice, but my daughter exclaimed that she saw a mother and baby dolphin!

We were lucky enough to see the pod multiple times, which was amazing. According to the guide, it was rare to see them that often. After that, we moved to a spot with turtles for snorkeling, but unfortunately, we couldn't swim with them. However, we did encounter a turtle that surfaced on our way back to the port, which made us very satisfied.

The tour content was very satisfying. A few points to note:
1. Take motion sickness medication beforehand.
2. We participated in August, but if you're sensitive to cold, it might be better to rent a wetsuit. I wore tights and a rash guard, but I was freezing and couldn't stop shaking after getting out of the water.
3. The return bus was quite cold, so it's essential to prepare for that.

シュノーケルもイルカも大好きな家族3人で参加(夫婦、13歳女子)しました。シュノーケルポイントにつくと船上からイルカの背びれが見え、ジャンプする姿も・・・!もうそれだけで喜びが。
当日の参加者は70人と大人数。参加前に口コミ情報をチェックしたら、海ではガイドさんの近くにいるようにとあったのでガイドさんの近くをキープ。
イルカの群れが現れると大声で声掛けしてくれるのでその方向をみるとイルカの群れが・・・感動です!!水中ではイルカの声?も聞こえました。私は気づきませんでしたが、娘は親子のイルカがいた~!と。
一度だけではなく、何度もイルカの群れを見れて本当に最高でした。ガイドさんいわく、こんなに何度も見れるのはラッキーだったそうです。
その後カメのいるポイントに移動してシュノーケルしましたが、残念ながらカメと泳ぐことはできませんでした。(港に帰る途中でカメが水上へ現れたのに遭遇できたので気分的には大満足)
ツアーの内容は大満足でした。
注意点としては
①酔い止めを飲んでおく。
②8月参加でしたが冷え性の人はウエットスーツをレンタルしたほうがいいかも。(私はタイツとラッシュガードでしたが海からあがったら寒くて手の震えがとまらなかったです。)
③帰りのバスはかなり寒いので防寒対策必至です。

Fantastic seeing fish, turtles and even a dolphin sighting.

Reviewed by: Mahalo

My overall impression of the experience was good. What I liked most about the activity was seeing the fish while snorkeling. I also saw a few turtles bobbing in and out of the water. There was a boat passing with some dolphins visible which was a nice surprise. My advice for future participants include taking precautions for any motion sickness because the water can make the boat rock a bit depending on the waves. Otherwise its a nice experience overall. It was great at the end of the trip when our shoes were lined up before exiting the ship.

BOB's Hawaii Underwater Scooter Adventure & Turtle Watching Tour

Excellent Experience and Super Fun! Crew was fantastic and would do this again!!!

Reviewed by: Myles G.

Pick from driver was prompt and on time. Once we arrived, we were given very clear instructions once on the boat, all the staff and the captain was very friendly and once we were on our way, everything we needed to know was explained clearly.

The actual scooter came on another boat and we were told how to get in and out of it, and I have to say the experience was unlike anything I've ever done before! We were only about 10-12 feet down but it was so wonderful to be in the water and not having to worry about anything.

The divers were very very professional and attentive, very friendly and very knowledgeable, and once we were done with the scuba scooter experience, it was a nice relaxing time on the boat to either go snorkeling or just enjoy the beautiful scenery around us!

Highly recommended, the staff was absolutely great and the captain was "cherry"!

Will definitely do it again next time we are in Honolulu! Highly recommended!!

I was moved by the wild dolphins! Just a bit rushed. 野生のイルカに感動!ただちょっと急ぎ足。

Reviewed by: はなこ

I was able to encounter a pod of wild dolphins! As soon as we spotted the dolphins, we hurriedly put on our fins and masks. At the captain's signal, we jumped into the sea one after another and swam to the location guided by the staff. When we looked underwater at the signal, we could see dozens of dolphins swimming below us! The water was incredibly clear, providing excellent visibility. It was a great experience.

We raced the boat to the best spot, waited, and signaled; I believe that if any of these elements were missing, the timing wouldn't have worked out. It truly felt like a long-established tour!

Even after getting back on the boat, the pod of dolphins swam alongside us. (This seems to be rare.) At this time of year, there were also baby dolphins, and we were able to see the dolphins jumping, which made for an exciting time.

While the time with the dolphins was wonderful, there were a few things I would like to see improved, which is why I’m giving it one less star.
- I would have liked it to be clearly stated that we needed to swim quickly on our own to see the dolphins. (I had a parent in their 60s who is not a strong swimmer with me.)
- The time we could see the dolphins underwater was very brief. (Once the pod passed by, we got back on the boat and moved straight to the water play point.) I would have liked to have more time to see them in the sea again.
- I purchased photos, but none were taken underwater. (It was the maximum number of passengers on board that day, so perhaps the photographer couldn't manage?) It felt like there were many photos of children. While there were photos taken on the boat, the commemorative photos with the staff were in a conveyor-belt style, so we weren't looking at the camera. It was disappointing, especially since it cost $79.

The staff were cheerful, and the boat was lively with dancing and singing, making it a good experience where I could feel the beauty of Hawaii's nature.

野生のイルカの群れに会えました!
イルカを発見すると急いでフィンとマスクを装着。船長さんの合図で次々に海に飛び込み、スタッフの誘導する場所まで泳ぎます。合図で海中を見ると何十頭のイルカの群れが下を泳いでいくのが見えました!海は透明度抜群で視界もクリア。いい体験ができました。
ベストな場所へ船を走らせ、待機し、合図、このどれが欠けてもタイミングは合わなかったと思います。さすが老舗ツアーだと思いました!
船に上がってからもイルカの群れが船と並走。(珍しいそうです。)時期的に赤ちゃんイルカもいて、イルカのジャンプも見ることができ、ワクワクな時間が続きました。

イルカとの時間は素適でしたが、いくつか改善してほしいこともあり星マイナス1。
・イルカを見るために急いで自力で泳ぐ必要があることは明記してほしかった。(泳ぎの得意でない60代の親が一緒でした。)
・イルカを水中で見れたのは一瞬だった。(群れが通り過ぎたら船に上がってそのまま水遊びポイントへ移動してしまう。)もう一度海の中で見る時間をとってほしかった。
・写真を購入したが海の中で1枚も撮ってもらえなかった。(当日は乗船可能人数maxだったのでカメラマンの手が回らなかった?)子どもの写真が多い印象。船の上では写っていましたがスタッフとの記念写真も流れ作業状態なのでカメラ目線になっていなくて…。79ドルもしたのに残念です。

スタッフも明るく船内もダンスや歌で盛り上がり、ハワイの自然を感じられる良い体験はできたと思います。

ハナウマ湾シュノーケリング ベテラン日本語ガイドがご案内する少人数制ツアー 貸切プランあり<半日>

It was the best experience! 最高の体験でした!

Reviewed by: ジェイ

I had previously gone snorkeling at another location, but it wasn't as detailed and kind as this experience. This time, I felt that the explanations provided in advance were very thorough and considerate, ensuring that participants could enjoy themselves without any worries. Additionally, during the snorkeling, I was constantly watched over and guided, which allowed me to fully enjoy the wonderful underwater world without getting lost. I was pleasantly surprised to be able to swim for such a long time, which I hadn't expected. I would definitely like to use this service again.

以前別の場所でシュノーケリングをしたことはありましたが、今回のようにきめ細かく親切ではありませんでした。
今回はとても懇切丁寧に事前に説明いただき、参加者に不安のないよう安心して楽しめるよう配慮を感じました。
また、シュノーケリング中も常に見ていて誘導していただいたおかげで迷うことなくすばらしい海の世界を堪能することができました。
また、こんなに長い時間泳がせてもらえるとは思っていなかったのでうれしい驚きでした。
また、利用されていただきたいと思いました。

Dear Jay, thank you for joining the tour with Blue Hawaii Divers. I'm glad to hear that you and Dan had a great time. During our tour, you will swim for about an hour, and if the wave conditions are good, we will take you further out. We will make sure to provide thorough practice beforehand. Both of you did very well. It was nice that a seal came to the beach that day. Next time, I will do my best to ensure you can see the adorable sea turtles at Hanauma Bay, so please consider joining us again when you come back to Hawaii. Thank you very much. Mahalo!!

ジェイ様、この度はブルーハワイダイバースのツアーにお越しいただき、ありがとうございます。
とても楽しんでいただけたようで私もDANも嬉しく思います。私達のツアーでは1時間程続けて泳いでいただきますし、波の状態が良ければ沖の方までお連れするので、事前の練習はきっちりとさせていただきます。お二人も大変お上手に出来ていましたよ。この日はビーチにアザラシが来てくれていて良かったですね。次回こそはハナウマ湾の可愛いウミガメさんを見ていただけるように頑張りますので、またハワイにお越しの際にはリピートして下さいね。
本当にありがとうございました。Mahalo!!

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>

It seems to be for adults. 大人向けかな

Reviewed by: kiringo

The day I participated, it was packed with about 40 people, and there was barely enough room to sit. There were four crew members. I attended with elementary school children, but the explanation for using the snorkeling gear was very brief, and after that, everyone pretty much did their own thing. During sailing, the crew said it was optional to wear life jackets, and since they came around to collect them, none of the participants ended up wearing them.

I was able to see a sea turtle, and I spotted dolphins jumping in the distance, which was great, but I felt it might be more of an adult-oriented tour.

参加した日は40人くらいの満員状態で席もギリギリ座れるという状態でした。クルーは4人でした。小学生を連れての参加でしたがシュノーケリングの使い方はサラッと説明するくらいで、始まってからはほとんど各自で勝手にやるというかんじでした。セーリングの時は救命胴衣は着けても着けなくてもよいと言ってクルーが回収しにきて参加者全員着用してませんでした。
ウミガメは見れたし、遠くでイルカが飛び跳ねてるのが見えたので良かったですが、大人向けのツアーかな?と思いました。

ハナウマ湾シュノーケリング ベテラン日本語ガイドがご案内する少人数制ツアー 貸切プランあり<半日>

I was able to see a lot of fish! 魚たくさん見れました!

Reviewed by: パンダ

In late August, my family (two adults and two middle schoolers) participated in a morning course. Along with us, there was a couple and a family with children, making a total of 10 participants plus instructors Dan and Chieko, bringing the total to 12 people.

Both of them were kind and had great personalities, and their explanations were very thorough. Before making a reservation, I debated whether to go with a guided tour, but I’m glad I chose this course. This is because they select the best course based on the day's sea conditions, such as the waves. If you’ve been there several times, you might prefer to go on your own, but since it was our first time at Hanauma Bay, we were unsure and a bit anxious. When they told us the course that swam from one end to the other, I thought that if it were just us, we definitely wouldn’t have chosen this course.

In the end, we were lucky to see a seal on the beach, which was adorable. It was a lucky experience!

However, since we just swam from one end to the other, it felt a little lacking. It would have been even better if we could have spent 10 to 15 minutes freely exploring the shallow areas.

But both the parents and kids had a great time. Thank you! It was a wonderful memory.

8月下旬、家族(大人2人と中学生2人)で朝からのコースで参加しました。私達のほかにご夫婦と子連れのご家族と一緒で10人とインストラクターのダンさんとチエコさんの合計12人で。
2人とも優しいですし人柄が良く、説明もとても丁寧です。予約する前、ガイドさん付きにするかどうか悩みましたが、私はこちらのコースにして良かったと思っています。と、いうのもその日の海の波などのコンディションを見て最適なコースを選び泳いでくれるから。何度か来た方なら個人で自由にでもいいと思いますが、うちはハナウマベイが初めてだったので勝手がわからず不安があったのもありますし、端から端まで泳いだコースを教えてもらった時、自分達だけだったらこのコースは絶対泳がなかっただろうなーって思ったので。
最後には運よくアザラシが浜辺にいて可愛かったです。ラッキーでした♪
ただ、端から端まで泳いで終わりだったので少〜し物足りず。ここら辺の浅瀬で自由に…とか10分15分でもあればもっと良かったかなと。。

でも、親も子供も楽しく過ごせました。
ありがとうございました!良い思い出です。

Thank you, Panda family, for joining our tour with your family of four. I'm glad you were able to see many fish for the first time at Hanauma Bay. On this day, we swam continuously for about an hour without a break, and it's impressive that everyone in the Panda family wanted to swim even more! However, I must apologize as customers on guided tours are required to swim with an instructor for safety, so free swimming is not allowed. If the wave conditions are good, our tour sometimes allows us to swim beyond the white waves out to deeper waters, so please consider joining us again in the future. For those who find snorkeling insufficient, I recommend trying our introductory diving experience. We also offer diving tours at Hanauma Bay, and you are always welcome. Thank you very much. Mahalo!!

パンダ様、この度はご家族4名様でツアーにお越しいただき、ありがとうございます。
初めてのハナウマ湾でたくさんのお魚さんを見ていただけて良かったです。この日も通常通り1時間ほど休みなく続けて泳いでいますが、もっと泳ぎたかったなんてパンダファミリー様は皆さま体力がありますね!実はガイド付きツアーにお越しのお客様は必ずインストラクターと共に安全を確保して泳ぐことになっていますので、お客様のみの自由行動はだめなんです。ごめんなさいね。波の状態が良ければ、私達のツアーでは白波を超えて、沖の方までも泳ぎに行くこともありますので、また機会がありましたらツアーにリピートして下さい。もしくはシュノーケリングで物足りない方には体験ダイビングがオススメです。私達はハナウマ湾での体験ダイビングツアーも開催していますのでいつでも大歓迎致します。
本当にありがとうございました。Mahalo!!

ハワイ水中スクーター 泳げなくてもOK!シーボブで海底散歩&シュノーケリングクルーズ

An experience you can only have in Hawaii! ハワイでしか体験できない!

Reviewed by: 大和すまない!

Sea walking is available everywhere, but underwater biking is only here!
About 20 years ago, there was one at Manza Beach in Okinawa, but it couldn't operate due to the weather at that time, and it has been gone since then, which I found disappointing!
However, I found it in Hawaii this time and it was definitely the right decision to sign up without hesitation.

It's quite disappointing that the number of fish has significantly decreased compared to the old Hawaii, but considering this attraction over the fish, I definitely recommend it!

シーウォークはどこにでもあるが、水中バイクはここでしかない!
沖縄にも20年くらい前に万座ビーチにあったが、その時は気候でできなく、それ以来なくなっており残念に思ってました!
しかし今回のハワイで見つけて迷わずに申し込みをして正解だった。

魚の数が昔のハワイに比べてかなり減っているのが残念でならないが、魚よりもこのアトラクションって考えると是非おすすめですね!

Thank you for participating with your son this time, 初ハワイ. Children adapt to snorkeling quickly, so they can often do it better than adults. At Blue Hawaii Divers, we also offer introductory diving tours at Hanauma Bay, so please consider having your first scuba experience there when he turns 12! We look forward to it. Thank you very much. Mahalo!!

初ハワイ様、この度は息子さんとお二人でご参加いただき、ありがとうございます。
お子様はすぐにシュノーケリングに慣れますから大人よりも上手にできますよね。ブルーハワイダイバースではハナウマ湾で体験ダイビングツアーも行っていますので、是非12歳になったら初スキューバはハナウマ湾でどうぞ!!楽しみに待ってますよ。
本当にありがとうございました。Mahalo!!

2.5-Hour Waikiki Guided Turtle Snorkel Tour, Snacks & Drinks - Holokai Catamaran

Turtle Paradise!

Reviewed by: Family from Japan

It was an amazing experience to see so many turtles at once. I have been to Oahu about 20 times but never seen so many turtles! Some of them came to the surface and I was able to see them very close, I could even see their nostrils. After snorkeling, we went sailing to the Diamond Head and the boat jumped up and down the wave and my children were so excited! I would surely want to come again in the near future.
