So glad we chose Haleiwa Shark Tours/Three Local Boys! Only had six people on boat and cage held six people! We never had to get out of cage! Saw between 10-20 sharks, hard to tell exactly because there was ALWAYS 4-6 in view! The captain and his mate, terrible at names but think Captain was Chris, both very knowledge about history of island and pointed them out as we were going to drop spot. Felt very comfortable in cage - anybody can do this! I'd love to back tomorrow, but we are leaving. HIGHLY recommend Haleiwa Shark Tours

We went for the shark cage adventure on 1st September. It was one of the most terrifying thing we were doing before we started.
The boat was easy to spot, and the best part they waited for us as we got a little late due to road closures. Thumbs up for veltra and the excursion team to work with us on this and keeping us feeling relaxed.
Pro tip: road closures in oahu are really bad, keep more than usual buffer time for your travel.
The boat ride was really choppy, as we were already informed that there were very high waves. The ride could have been slowed down a little(my wife puked due to sea sickness)
Once at the site, we went down in the cage, and after initial jitters of maybe a minute, you start feeling better and safe. So all the folks who are afraid to do so, please just get in the cage, I promise it gets better.
Waters here were again choppy, meaning we were constantly bumping with cage or someone else.
The.good part was we could see multiple galapego sharks, they are magnificent creatures. We saw two upclose and they were big(7-8 feet long).
Ride back was again on rough waters and could have been slowed down a little.
The guides were ok, could have been better and maybe helped us a bit more in water and calming our nerves a little.

Me and my friend first agreed to do a caged experience with the sharks, but I'm so glad we chose to do it without the cage! It was a better experience.

I'm glad I went! I had so much fun!
The day before, I fell and got a minor scrape on my palm, so I was a bit anxious and nervous, sweating from my hands, but to sum it up, it was no problem at all. You don't need grip strength for the zip line.
The lockers are small, about the size of a valuables box at a public bath. Larger items need to be left at the office, which was free of charge. A cautious companion (who was told it was at their own risk and left their smartphone) said, "If it’s this safe, I should have brought my smartphone on the course." I think as long as you take precautions to avoid dropping it, you should bring it.
There were many older participants who were actively enjoying themselves, striking poses and even going upside down. However, I think lighter children might stop midway due to not gaining enough speed, so I recommend waiting until they are older to participate.
行って良かったです!すごく楽しかったです!
前日に転んで手のひらに軽いすり傷を負ってしまったので、大丈夫かなあという不安と緊張で手汗が止まらなかったのですが、結論から言うと全然問題なかったです。ジップラインに握力は必要ないので。
ロッカーは銭湯にある貴重品ボックス程の小さいものです。それより大きい持ち物はオフィスに預けます。無料でした。慎重な同行者(自己責任と言われてスマホは預けた)も「こんなに安全ならスマホをコースに持ち込めばよかった」と。落とさない工夫だけしておけば、持っていくべきだと思います。
ご年配の参加者もたくさんいらっしゃって、ポーズをとったり逆さまになったりと、皆さん積極的に楽しんでおられました。ただ、体重の軽いお子さまはスピードが出ずに途中で止まってしまうと思うので、大人の身体になってからの参加をおススメします。

This was our first time in Hawaii so we wanted to see as much of Oahu as we could and this tour was a great way to do it. Our driver/tour guide/waiter Steve was excellent; filling us in with fun facts about Waikiki and the places we passed along the way, recommendations for activities and places to eat and restroom breaks along the way! Highlights were the chilli garlic shrimp lunch and the green sea turtle we saw sun-baking on the beach and the ones bobbing up and down in the sea! We would highly recommend this tour for anyone who wants to see the North Shore and get out of Waikiki.

I went with my wife, and we had a great time.
First, we arrived after about 1 hour and 30 minutes by shuttle from Waikiki. After checking in, we were gathered with our group and fitted with the gear. We did a practice zip line and then moved by buggy (which was intense), and then it was time for the real zip line? There are some really beautiful spots with great views since it's on a high ground. We were taking a lot of photos with our GOPRO and smartphones, making sure not to drop them.
There are no restrooms along the way, so be sure to go beforehand! They will hold your bags for you. I put my valuables in a locker with a lock. I regret forgetting to buy a T-shirt. I couldn't buy it online.
妻と行きました。とても楽しかったです。
まずはワイキキから送迎シャトルで1時間30分くらいで到着。受付を済ませたら一緒にまわるグループ(時間帯)が集められ装具を着けてもらいました。練習のジップをしてバギーで移動(激しい)、後は本番?ジップラインをやります。高台にあるのでとても景色がいいスポットがあります。GOPROやスマホを落ちないように持ってたくさん撮影していました。わたしたちも。
途中にトイレはありませんので事前に!

I have done ziplining several times in Japan, but the length and scenery here are incomparable. There were three staff members accompanying us, so there were no safety concerns. The explanation in Japanese was only in a video before the start, but they supplemented it with broken Japanese and gestures during the activity.
It was a wonderful experience in Hawaii.

Choosing this zipline among the several options on Oahu was the right decision. Since we had some time on the bus, we stopped by Laie Point and unexpectedly got to take stunning photos of the scenery. The staff was very cheerful and made the experience a lot of fun. The view from the top of the mountain was also amazing, and I really enjoyed my time in Hawaii. It does cost a bit, but the experience is well worth it. This is a tour that you won't regret trying at least once.

All three instructors were unable to speak Japanese, but we were able to enjoy the zip line without any difficulty thanks to their gestures. If small children couldn't land due to their light weight, the instructors would cover for them, so there were no issues.
In addition to the zip line, we used a lot of energy climbing up with just our arms and crossing a bridge to the next zip line. However, being surrounded by the forest felt really nice.
You can buy a photo from the return pad for $15.
One thing that caught my attention was that all the participants were Japanese, but not a single person gave a tip. In America, tipping is part of the culture and can be a significant part of the salary, so it's important to tip to avoid leaving a bad impression of Japanese people. My husband and I each gave $20 while saying "Thank you very much!" The instructor was very happy and shook our hands. It's much nicer for both parties to give generously, so always make sure to tip!
インストラクターをしてくれた三人は全員日本語が話せない方でしたが、ジェスチャーで伝わってたので難なくジップラインを楽しむことができました♪小さい子でも体重が軽くて着地できなかったりした場合はインストラクターがカバーしてくれるので問題なしです。
ジップライン以外にも、腕だけで上に上がったり、次のジップラインまで橋を渡ったりと、体力かなり使います。けど森林に囲まれてかなり気持ちがいいです(^_^)v
写真は帰りのパッドから一枚$15で買えます。
最後気になったのが、参加者が全員日本人だったのですが、誰一人チップを渡していなかったことです。アメリカはチップ文化でチップがお給料の場合もあるし、日本人の印象が悪くなるので絶対に渡しましょう。Thank you very much!と言ってわたしと旦那は一人$20ずつ渡しました。インストラクターしてくれた方はすごく喜んで握手してくれました。ケチらず渡す方がお互い気持ちがいいので必ずチップは渡しましょう╰(*´︶`*)╯♡

This was a surprise for my girlfriends birthday and she loved it! We saw so many of sharks! We had done one of the other shark dive without a cage on a smaller boat and did not have the greatest experience.(she got seasick, swimming in strong current, only saw one shark, un-attentive crew...) This experience was the complete opposite. The shark cage makes it so easy to relax in the water and just watch the sharks. Not fighting against the current for this type of experience really makes a huge difference. And you are never worried about what is behind you! The boat itself made a big difference as well. It is an extremely stable power catamaran and is one of the smoothest riding boats i have been on. The captain and crew are one of the friendliest I have encountered. They make sure you are taken care of and happy to share their knowledge of literally everything you can see out on the water and on the island.

Good zip line experience with a mix of short and long zip line runs. Was able to go up side down on the majority of the zip lines, although they prefer to save "tricks" for the last 2 zip lines as a surprise.
All lines are dual zip - so you go two at a time. Takes about 2 1/2 hours with 11 people in the group. Guides were fun, helpful, and took some good pictures (separate charge to buy their pictures). They encourage you to take your own pictures too.

The activities themselves and the staff were good, but the shuttle tour was quite stressful.
First, the meeting time was 7:45, but the car did not arrive. There were other Westerners at the meeting point, and we were all waiting together, confirming that the shuttle had not come. At 8:05, one shuttle arrived. I felt relieved and tried to get on with others, but our names were not on the list. When I asked the driver, he said another car would come, so we had to wait... We had already been waiting for 20 minutes, and we were the only Japanese left behind. I started to worry whether our reservation was confirmed.
Even at 8:15, the car had not come. It was getting too late, so I left my companions and ran to the hotel front desk to make a call. However, I was told that they were delayed due to traffic and to wait another 10 minutes, so I ran back to the meeting point.
At 8:30, even after waiting more than the 10 minutes they mentioned, the car still had not arrived. I started to feel like canceling. For now, I ran back to the hotel front desk and called again. I was told it would come soon, so I ran back to the meeting point. Standing outside for so long made me anxious and angry, and I was getting tired.
At 8:40, the shuttle finally arrived. Since most of the passengers were Japanese, it seemed to be a car that gathered Japanese tour participants. Later, I found out that others had also been waiting without knowing what was going on.
Inside the car, the driver apologized for the delay, but since it was in English, I couldn't fully understand the reasons. We arrived at the destination safely. The activity itself was 20 minutes late, but I was in a group with other Japanese participants, and the staff were fun, plus the scenery was great, so it turned out to be a wonderful time.
Around 13:00, the activity ended. We collected our belongings and selected photos, but since we hadn’t been informed about the return meeting time, we just waited. At 13:30, since it was hot outside, the driver kindly let us into the car. I appreciated that.
However, while all the Japanese participants who did the activity got on, we had to wait because the members from the outbound shuttle were not all present. At 14:15, the remaining person arrived, apologizing as they got on. We departed, but I had expected to be back in Waikiki by 14:30, which messed up my plans for the day. I thought if they had informed us of the return meeting time, we wouldn’t have been delayed this much.
Around 15:30, we returned to the hotel in Waikiki.
As I mentioned, I cannot trust the shuttle timing at all. Additionally, all communication is in English, and using a mobile phone abroad is difficult, which made me very anxious and stressed. The staff were all nice, and the activity was enjoyable, but it seems that no one is managing or taking responsibility for the schedule and timing of the optional tour with shuttle service. In this situation, I cannot recommend it to others, and I think improvements are necessary, so I will give it one star.
アクティビティ自体も、スタッフも良かったですが、送迎付きツアーとしてはストレスが溜まりました。
まず、集合時間7:45でしたが車が来ない。欧米人の方も待ち合わせ場所にいて、お互い同じツアー参加者で送迎車が来ないことについて確認したりして待っていました。
8:05に一台の送迎車が到着。ほっとして他の方と一緒に乗り込もうとしますが、私達の名前はなく、運転手に聞くと、もう一台車が来るから待つようにと…既に20分待っている上、残されるのは日本人の私達だけ。予約が取れているのか不安になります。
8:15になっても車は来ない。いくらなんでも遅すぎるので同行者を残し、ホテルのフロントに走り、電話をかけます。しかし、道路渋滞?のため遅れているからと、あと10分まつように言われ、集合場所に走って戻ります。
8:30、言われた10分以上待っても車が来ない。キャンセルしたくなってきます。とりあえずもう一度ホテルのフロントに走り、再度電話します。すぐ来ると言われ、また集合場所に走って戻ります。ずっと外で立ちっぱなしでいることもあり、不安と怒りで疲れます。
8:40、やっと送迎車到着。大半が日本人だったので、日本人のツアー客を集めた車のようです。後で聞いてみると、他の方もよく分からずずっと待っていた様子。
車の中で、運転手が遅れたことを謝っていましたが、英語なので理由等はよくわかりませんでした。
無事に現地到着。アクティビティ自体は20分遅れでしたが、他の日本人の方と一緒のグループでしたし、スタッフさんも楽しい方で、景色も良く最高の時間でした。
13:00頃アクティビティが終了。荷物を回収したり、写真を選びますが、帰りの集合等は聞いていないためそのまま待ちます。
13:30、外が暑いため、運転手さんが気を利かせて、車の中に入れてくれました。これはありがたかったです。
しかし、一緒にアクティビティをしていた日本人は全員乗り込みましたが、行きの送迎車のメンバーが揃っていないため、この状態で待ちます。
14:15、まだ来ていなかった方が謝りながら乗車。出発しましたが、14:30にはワイキキに戻れると思っていたため、当日の予定が狂います。最初に帰りの集合時間等を知らせておけばこんなに遅れなかったのでは?と思いました。
15:30頃、ワイキキのホテルに帰着。
以上のとおり、送迎については時間が全く信用できません。また、やりとりは全て英語になりますし、海外では携帯も使いづらいため、とても不安で、ストレスが溜まりました。
スタッフは皆さん良い方でしたし、アクティビティも楽しかったですが、送迎付きのオプショナルツアー記載の日程や時間については、誰も管理されてないし、責任もないのだと思います。
この状態では他の人におすすめはできないのと、改善した方が良いと思うので、星は1つにします。

Barely arrived on spot, shark fins started to show around our boat. That alone was already impressive and exciting!
While in the cage, you get to admire them gracefully swim around and under the cage... beauty!
Few tips:
- Waterproof phone pouch with wrist lanyard recommended to take underwater videos, we're so glad we had one! Just make sure not to live the whole experience through your phone ;)
- Even if you're not sea/motion sick, I suggest you have a ginger chew or two (Chimes brand are good). This will help settle your stomach as it can get bumpy under there.
Big thanks to our guides, very chill and knowledgeable!
PS: we also got to see dolphins splashing and following our boat on the way back, that was also priceless!

Everyone except us was from the West! I had high expectations after reading the reviews, but it wasn't simple English; it was quite advanced. I managed with the Japanese explanations on the consent form and the sign for how to slide. I think it would be difficult if trouble arises and you don't have the English skills to explain yourself.
The zip line offers a sense of freedom and the thrill of speed! You can see the ocean from the first two lines. Most of the area is a farm, so there's a lot of greenery. There are two safety harnesses, and they use very high ones with locks, so I felt safe sliding. The upside-down part was on the last line, and I mostly slid normally!
Westerners tend to be heavier, but I think people under 50 kg need to lift their legs to make it through most of the lines. If you stop midway or bounce back, it uses up the staff's effort.
In addition to the zip line, there are experiences like a suspension bridge and a vertical drop. There was also a part where you have to pull yourself up with just your arms, but that was very tiring; a woman from a foreign couple became grumpy (laughs).
I dropped my phone at the end, but luckily, the staff witnessed where it fell and found it unharmed. Tipping is not particularly required, but since they found my phone, I gave them a tip.
The staff will take care of your belongings! There was a locker for valuables, but I wasn't guided to it. For my belongings, there were no numbers; I just communicated the color, and it was retrieved with that exchange. The security is quite low.
Personally, I think it was below my expectations? I might have had high hopes from reading too many reviews.
自分達以外みんな欧米人でした!クチコミ読んで期待を抱いていましたが、簡単な英語とかではなくバリバリの英語です。承諾書と滑り方の看板の日本語の説明でなんとかと言った感じでした。トラブルが起きたときなど、自分のことを説明できる英語力がないと困ると思います。
ジップラインは開放感と速さのスリルを味わえます!景色も1.2本は先に海が見えたりします。ほとんどは農園なので緑が広がります。安全帯も2本あり、ロック付きのとても高いものを使っていて安心して滑ることができました。逆さまになるのは最後の方の1本で、ほとんど普通に滑りました!
欧米の方は体重がありますが、多分50キロ以下の人はほとんどの本数足を上げて滑らないと最後まで行けません。途中で止まったり、反動で帰ってしまうとスタッフの労力を使ってしまうことになります。
ジップラインだけでなく吊り橋や垂直にゆっくり落ちる体験もあります。自分の腕だけで上に上がるのもありましたが、これは非常に疲れました、外人のカップルの女の人は不機嫌になっていました(笑)
最後に携帯を落としてしまいましたが、スタッフが落ちたところを目撃してくれていて幸運にも無傷で発見してもらえました。チップは特段要求されませんが携帯を見つけてもらったので払いました。
荷物はスタッフが預かってくれます!貴重品ロッカーはあったけど案内されませんでした。荷物は番号とかなくて、何色か伝えて、これ?と言ったやりとりでとってもらう感じです。セキュリティ一は低いです。
個人的には期待より下だったかな?口コミを読みすぎて期待が大きかったのかもしれません。

I was able to ride comfortably in the great outdoors. Each time, there is some kind of mission, and I sometimes couldn't let go due to fear, but the overall feeling was exceptional. You can purchase the photos taken for an additional fee, but it was disappointing that they were mostly out of focus. However, that doesn't affect my overall evaluation this time.
大自然の中を気持ちよく乗ることができました。
毎回、何かしらのミッションがあるのですが、怖さのあまり手を離せなかったりしましたが、それ以上に気持ち良さは格別です。
別料金で、撮った写真を購入できますが、全体的にピンぼけしてたのが残念でした。それは今回の評価とは関係ありません。

Great tour to do if you are not familiar with Oahu. Our driver, tour guide, lunch server etc. was outstanding. Very informative and patient. I highly recommend Oahu Nature Tour. Our tour guide was Monique in case you have a choice. We attended this tour on 28 May 2019. Lunch was included at Fumi's Shrimp Shack
