シャークシュノーケリング　ケージ無しでサメと泳ぐ非日常体験 ＜2時間／貸切プランあり／ノースショア発＞

Swim with sharks! First underwater experience. サメと泳ぐ！はじめての海中体験

Reviewed by: ドナルド

Swimming with sharks was an experience I honestly couldn't imagine at all, and I felt a bit anxious about it. However, after being introduced to it by a friend, I decided to take the plunge and give it a try.

I was really nervous right up until the moment I entered the water, but once I was in the ocean, I found that the sharks swam gracefully and calmly. Being able to swim alongside them and see them up close turned out to be a very enjoyable experience.

The speed at which they swam was not as fast as I had expected, and I was able to swim right above them. While it was thrilling, the sense of awe I felt was much greater than any fear, making it an unforgettable time.

The tour was conducted in English only, but the staff occasionally spoke to us in Japanese, which made me feel more at ease. Additionally, I had heard from friends who participated in other tours that they had trouble receiving their photos, but in this tour, the photos were sent immediately after we arrived at the port, making the process very smooth. (There were no issues even with an Android phone.)

サメと一緒に泳ぐという体験は、正直なところまったく想像がつかず、少し不安もありましたが、友達に紹介してもらったことをきっかけに思い切って挑戦しました。
直前までとてもドキドキしていましたが、いざ海に入ってみると、サメはとても悠々と落ち着いて泳いでいて、その姿を間近で見ながら一緒に泳ぐことができ、とても楽しい体験となりました。

泳ぐスピードも思っていたほど速くなく、サメのすぐ上を並んで泳ぐこともできました。迫力はありつつも、怖さよりも感動の方が大きく、忘れられない時間になりました。

ツアーは英語のみでしたが、スタッフの方が時折日本語を交えながら話しかけてくださり、安心して参加することができました。
また、他のツアーに参加した友達からは、写真の送付がなかなか届かないといったトラブルを聞いていましたが、このツアーでは港に到着後すぐに写真を送信してくださり、とてもスムーズでした。（携帯の機種がAndroidでも問題ありませんでした。）

Reviewed by: Travno

Unique experience with a knowledgeable and fun crew! Common sense and safety first approach put us all at ease, so the swim was nothing but fun. We also saw dolphins, green turtle and a whale! They even pointed out to listen for a whale song under the water, which we heard!! If on Oahu, this is a must!

I guess this is about it. まぁこんなもんかなと

Reviewed by: えむ

It was supposed to be a maximum of six participants, but there were more than six on the day I attended. Also, it was stated to be two hours, but it was less than that. In the water, it felt like we were in for about 40 minutes.

There is a building for check-in, but there were no staff present at the time, which made it uncomfortable to wait alone in an empty area. (There were some people from a nearby cage tour, which added to the confusion.)

You have to hold onto the rope on the side of the boat at all times. The waves were high, and if you accidentally let go, you would get scolded for safety reasons. While waiting with the rope, one by one, we were called by the guide, and we had to swim from the rope to where the guide was. However, it felt pointless to dive when the sharks were not around during the count. There were sandbar sharks far away, and that day there were hammerheads and blacktips, but no tiger sharks. Since it’s nature, that’s understandable, but honestly, the sharks were farther away than I expected, and the water was a bit murky, so I wished I could see them up close.

When the boat's engine revs, the sharks come up a bit. It was okay to bring a GoPro and take pictures. You can rent fins, snorkels, masks, and rash guards. The guide only speaks English, so it can be tough if you don’t understand.

Also, please note that there is no place to change. The nearby restroom is for women, but there are no private stalls. Around noon, a man (possibly a homeless person?) came out of the women's restroom. There was also a dog that seemed to belong to him, and it smelled quite bad, so I quickly changed on the street in the parking lot.

MAX６名とのことですが、参加した日の回は６名以上いました。
また、２時間と記載がありますが２時間無しです。海の中にはいっているのは体感的に４０分あるかないかくらいでしょうか。
受付は建物がありますが、スタッフは居ない時間帯で誰も居ないところでポツンと待つのは不安でした。（近くのCageありのツアーの方がいたりしてちょっと混乱）
常に船の側面にある紐をつかんでいないといけません。波が高く、煽られてうっかり手が離れてしまったりしたら怒られます。（安全面のため）
紐を持って待って居ると一人ずつガイドに呼ばれたら、紐からガイドがいるところまで泳いで、ガイドのカウントで潜りますが、サメが居ないところでそのカウントで潜らせられても何も…という感じでした。下の遠くの方にサンドバーシャークがわらわら居る感じで、その日はハンマーとブラックチップも居ましたが、タイガーは居ませんでした。自然相手なのでそこは仕方ないですが、思っているより全体的にサメが遠かった＋白濁り気味でしたのでもう少し近くで見たかったというのが本音。
船のエンジンをふかすとサメが少し浮上してきます。
GoPro持っていって撮ることはOKでした。
フィン・シュノーケル・マスク・ラッシュガードは借りれます。
ガイドの方は英語対応になりますので理解出来ないと厳しいです。
また着替える場所がありませんのでご注意ください。
近くのトイレは女性側ですが個室扉がありません。
また昼頃ですが男性（路上生活者でしょうか？）が、女子トイレの中から出てきました。
またその方が飼っていると思われる犬がいて獣臭もすごかったですので、私は駐車場の路上でささっと着替えました。

This was an amazing adventure for us. Something we would absolutely do again. I would recommend this company over and over again. I love the fact they are natives and a small family owed business . Always support local when I can, over big corporate companies. In doing my research, there is no difference between cage or cage less. The water was beautiful, clear and relatively calm.

Reviewed by: taka2440.photo

The staff was bright and fun, and it was clear that they genuinely enjoy and love the ocean. Thanks to them, I was able to have a truly moving time in the sea. I understand that there might be concerns about safety during the shark swim, but the staff prioritizes the safety of their guests above all else. They guide you while maintaining a balance that is considerate of the sharks in terms of distance, timing, and duration. I felt that this was very important, especially since it was a cage-free swim, and having good control is crucial. I look forward to coming back to Hawaii and would love to rely on their services again. Thank you for the wonderful experience! ALOHA!!!

スタッフは明るく、楽しいメンバーで、心から海を楽しみ、愛してるのが伝わってきました。おかげですごく感動的な海の時間を過ごすことができました。シャークスイムはやはり安全性も心配かと思いますが、スタッフはお客の安全を1番に考えています。距離感、タイミング、時間配分とサメに無理のないバランスを保ってガイドしてくれます。ゲージフリーのスイムだからこそとても大切な事であるし、統制が取れていることは重要と私は感じました。また次にハワイに来る時はお世話になりたいと思っています。感動をありがとうございました！ALOHA!!!

Reviewed by: Dai

We participated in the tour as a family of three. Initially, we had booked for noon, but we received a recommendation from One Ocean to change it to 8 AM. There was no pick-up service, so we met at the location. The parking space at the harbor is spacious, so I don't think there will be any worries about parking. We met with the tour guide at the harbor, filled out a waiver, and boarded the boat. On the way to the shark point, there was an explanation of safety precautions regarding sharks, and we arrived at the point in about 30 minutes.

When my child shouted, "Shark!", I looked into the water and saw many sharks! It was a bit scary, but I trusted the explanation that there have been no accidents in the past 20 years and entered the water. The sharks were very calm, swimming gracefully, and they were beautiful. My impression of sharks has completely changed.

I wanted to see a tiger shark, but I was told that it wasn't the right season. However, we were able to see a whale, which is rarer than a tiger shark! It was a tour that left my child very satisfied. I would love to participate again. Additionally, for an extra fee of about $70, you can purchase a Go-Pro video. I would definitely like to join again!

家族3名でツアーに参加しました。最初に予約した時は昼12時で予約していましたが、ワンオーシャンから朝一がお勧めだと連絡があり、8時に変更しました。送迎はなく、現地集合です。ハーバーの駐車場スペースは広く、駐車場の心配はいらないと思います。ハーバーでツアーの方と待ち合わせして、誓約書を記入して、船に乗り込みます。サメのポイントへ向かう間に、サメの注意事項などの説明があり、30分ほどでポイントに到着です。
子供が「サメだ！」と叫んだので、海を覗くと、たくさんのサメがいます！
少し怖かったのですが、過去20年間、事故はないと言う説明を信じて、海へ入りました。
サメはとても落ち着いていて、泳ぎも優雅で、とても美しかったです。全くサメの印象は変わりました。
タイガーシャークを見たかったのですが、時期的に見れないとの事。しかし、タイガーシャークより希少なクジラを見る事ができました！
子供も大満足なツアーでした。また、参加したいと思います。また、追加料金70ドルほどで、Go-Proの動画を買う事もできます。また参加したいと思います！

Fantastic experience!

Reviewed by: Nolan

Experience was easily worth it for the money. Many other tour options in the area, but this one easily is the best for the price. The included photos & videos to allow you to be in the moment is a fantastic plus that I wish every company did for experiences like this. It allows you to still remember it without having cameras all over the place.I also highly recommend you forgo cage diving & instead do this type, it is a better experience.

The crew was incredibly knowledgeable, helpful & friendly. You can tell they love the experience & getting people to overcome their fears & have a great time. At no time during the whole swim did I feel unsafe. The divers did a great job of keeping everyone together & in a good area, and communicating necessary instructions. They did a remarkable job showcasing how misunderstood sharks are & once you get out swimming with them, it really does become apparent how calm they can be. They’re just as curious of us as we are of them.

I would do this experience again in a heartbeat.

One Ocean Diving Hawaii Shark Dive on Oahu & Snorkel Tour Experience

Very cool experience!!

Reviewed by: Chris J

Wasn't quite sure what to expect when you hear you're swimming with sharks without a cage. It was a very neat experience. The sharks pretty much stay below you. The crew does a good job of explaining their behavior and what to do around them. The crew was very knowledgable and made the tour exciting. I think the only thing I would change is maybe running the line that everyone hangs onto away from the boat. I felt like at times the waves would bring me back into the boat. It would be nice to just float on the surface away from the boat. But it was still very cool, the crew lets you go out and dive down and "hang" with the sharks for a little bit. Definitely a bucket list item. Would suggest brining your own snorkel gear if you find it hard to fit rentals. Bring a GoPro too! But if you forget, they're taking video and pics of everyone the whole time! Other than that, book it and go have fun!! Well worth the time and money!!

I highly recommend booking a snorkeling adventure with Ocean Outfitters! Tyler and Captain Brandon were excellent tour guides! We enjoyed an exhilarating 20 minute boat ride to the rock island where you can climb up and jump off into 25 foot deep waters. While snorkeling, we saw lots a fish, coral, some sea urchins, a sea cucumber, and many dolphins and turtles en route to and from the island. So much fun!

I wouldn’t chose any other charter!!

Reviewed by: Chynna

I ended up going pelagic diving on Christmas Eve, and it was truly one of the most amazing experiences of my life. Sharks are my biggest fear, this was my opportunity to face them. It was comforting for me that the crew gets in the water right along side you.They were very down to earth people, and genuinely create an environment where you feel safe. At a few points I started to slightly freak out as the sharks got uncomfortably close and the crew swam right alongside me and reassured me that I’d be fine, and they would keep them away if they came any closer. I was able to tough out the experience and got out of the water exhilarated, shaking, and completely in awe of what had I had experienced. I am left a memory that I will never forget / take for granted. I would 100% do it again , and I recommend this crew to all of my friends.. I wouldn’t chose any other charter!
