It was scary, but it was fun!! 怖かったけど、楽しかった！！

Reviewed by: KENICHI ITO

I was satisfied to see a large shark up close. The waves were high, and the cage was unstable, which made my wife scared, but as she got used to it, she managed to hold on and enjoy herself!

If the weather isn't favorable, it can get quite cold, so I think it would have been good to prepare properly before participating.

間近で大きなサメを見ることができて満足です。
波が高く、ゲージのなかは不安定で、妻は怖がっていましたが慣れてくるとうまくつかまりながら楽しんでました！

天候に恵まれないとかなり寒い場合がありますので、対策をしっかり行い参加できればよかったと思います。

North Shore Shark Adventures - Oahu Cage Diving Tour with Waikiki Transportation

Stoked!!!

Reviewed by: Michal Cordova

Last Saturday I had the opportunity to do the sharks cage with some friends. Honestly, I was a little concerned about how the sharks are attracted, and if we were putting them in any distress by trying to see them in their natural habitat. Shortly after boarding the boat, my concern was put to rest-the sharks are not harmed in any way!.. Although it was late in the morning, and a swell was filling in, me and a couple friends all had a blast, gripping the bars of the cage, riding the swells as they rolled through and watched 10-12 sharks circle around us with such grace and ease. They were so close, we could see the pupil of their eyes!! Such an amazing experience, reminding me of my tiny existence on land.

Quite the exciting adventure!

Reviewed by: CoCo

This was such a neat experience that I'll never forget. We were so close to the sharks, which was somewhat scary, but mostly serene watching them swim by, really not caring about us humans in a cage. They come up to the sound of the boat because the area is usually filled with crabbers and they've become accustomed to eating the scraps. It was so neat being surrounded by these beautiful creatures and close enough to see the small barnacles attached to their bodies.

We did the 11am tour, which resulted in quite rocky waters (hence it being the latest option). The earlier times are much calmer waters and generally better visibility. The later time is not ideal for anyone sensitive to motion sickness, or nervous about the experience as it enhanced the intensity getting in and out of the cage. While in the water, we all had to hold on tightly to avoid hitting and kicking one another.

All that said, it was way worth it. Again, the earlier times and much calmer and even more enjoyable - highly recommend the tour, the earlier the better!

Be cautious of seasickness. 船酔い注意

Reviewed by: かなばなな

The boat was tied up and swayed more than I expected because people were moving inside the cage. Even I, who have never been seasick, ended up vomiting. My friend felt so sick even after taking three motion sickness pills that they couldn't participate. Several others also vomited. Aside from that, it was the best experience. The sharks showed no interest in us and were not scary at all. Next time, I want to take motion sickness pills and try again.

船は止まった状態でケージにつながれており、ケージの中で人が動くため、想像以上に揺れます。船酔いしたことのない私でも吐きました。友人は酔い止め3錠のんでも気分が悪すぎて、参加できずでした。他にも何人か吐いていました。それ以外は最高の体験でした。サメは全くこちらに興味はなく、怖くありません。今度は酔い止めを飲んで、やってみたいです。

Dolphins are nice, but sharks are definitely better!! イルカもいいけど断然シャーク！！

Reviewed by: 犬っころ

I went on a honeymoon with my husband. The first time, the waves were too high, and it was canceled, but since we had a long stay, we rebooked and were able to participate the second time! During the first attempt, we were informed on the boat that it was canceled, which was disappointing. The staff tried to be considerate by throwing food from the boat, but my husband and I were whispering to each other that this wasn't what we expected and we couldn't be satisfied with that, laughing.

I often travel abroad, and I've noticed that for these kinds of optional tours, cancellations tend to be communicated at the last minute. I understand that weather and waves are natural factors, and sometimes you can only know at the last moment, but if we could be informed in advance, we could adjust our plans accordingly. I always think it would be great to know before arriving at the location to avoid wasting time.

Despite that, we had a great time because the staff at Veltra were very attentive, providing us with updates and advice, which made for a pleasant experience. The explanations were all in English, but I think you can manage by the atmosphere! The driver shared various information about the types of sharks during the bus ride, so if you can understand English, it might be enjoyable. I, on the other hand, couldn't catch much, so my husband translated for me the whole time.

Make sure to take motion sickness medication! Almost everyone else on the boat seemed to be struggling with seasickness. I took medication before and during the boat ride, so I was fine, but it really does rock a lot!

I also attached my GoPro to my wrist and took a lot of pictures! If you have an underwater camera, I recommend attaching a strap and securing it around your neck or wrist while diving.

It also depends on the driver, but the shuttle car was freezing! I think it's fine to wear a swimsuit on the way there, but please bring a simple change of clothes for the return trip! There is one restroom, but it's a small cabin-type toilet, so you can manage to change if you really try. It might be tough for those who are particular about cleanliness, but considering the freezing conditions on the way back, you can do it! It was so cold that I felt like I might catch a cold, and the drive from the North Shore to the hotel is quite long.

We saw a lot of sharks! Unfortunately, there was only one species, but seeing over ten of them was an experience I had never had before, and it was really exciting and fun!

In any case, make sure to have motion sickness medication, water, and a simple change of clothes! With just those, you'll be all set! I highly recommend this tour! Thank you so much, Veltra!

ハネムーンで主人と２人で行ってきました
１回目は波が高く中止になりましたが滞在日数が長かったので再度予約して２回目は参加できました♪１回目は船の中で今日は中止だと聞かされがっがり。。スタッフの方も気を使って船の上からエサをまいてみせてくれましたが、こんなんちゃうねん、こんなんで満足できんひんねん、と主人とこそこそつっこみまくりです笑
よく海外旅行に行きますがこのてのオプションツアーはぎりぎりになってから中止だと伝えられる傾向があるなぁと思います＾＾；天候や波などは自然のことなので本当にぎりぎりになってからでしかわからないものもあると思いますがやはり事前にわかれば予定変更の対応もできますしなんとか現地に着く前に知る事ができればいいなぁ時間ももったいないしなぁといつも思ってしまいます＾＾；それでも楽しく参加できたのはベルトラさんがご丁寧に連絡をちょこちょこくださったりアドバイスもくれたりしてとても気持ちの良い対応をしていただいたからだど思います＾＾
あとはすべて英語の説明ですが雰囲気で大丈夫だと思います笑行きのバスの中でサメの種類についてなどをドライバーさんがいろいろ伝えてくれますので英語が聞き取れる方は楽しいかもしれません＾＾私はさっぱりなので主人にずっと通訳してもらっていました笑
必ず酔い止めは必須です！私たち夫婦以外の方はほとんど船酔いでつらそうでした；；行く前と船の中でも薬を飲んで置いたので大丈夫でしたがかなり揺れます！
あと私はゴープロを手首につけてたくさん撮りました♪水中カメラなどある方はストラップをつけて首にかけるか手首に固定して潜るといいと思います＾＾
あとはドライバーさんによると思いますが送迎の車の中は極寒です笑行きは水着でもいいと思いますが帰りは簡単な着替えを持っていって着替えてください！トイレが一箇所ありますが着替えれない事はない程の小屋型のトイレなので本当に頑張って着替えてください笑潔癖の人には辛いかもしれませんが帰りの極寒のことを考えたらできます笑風邪をひきそうなほど寒くノースショアからホテルまでは割りと長い道のりなので＾＾；
自分でクーラーの温度ちょっと下げてと言えちゃいそうな勇者の方！報告お待ちしています笑

サメはたくさんみれました♪あいにく一種類しかいませんでしたが10匹以上見る経験は今までなかったのですごく興奮して楽しかったです！！
とにかく酔い止め、お水、簡単な着替え！これさえあれば完璧です！おすすめツアーです＾＾＊
ベルトラさん本当にありがとうございました

Incredible Experience

Reviewed by: mcavalheiro

Without a question this is a 5 star experience. This is one of those moments in life you will never forget and will probably want to do again. The staff is very friendly and experienced and they have great respect for the ocean and its creatures. They gave us a safety briefing and explained what to expect with the sharks and what not do, first thing we heard was "keep all the negative associations with sharks at the shore, go in with an open mind".
We got to swim around Sandbar & Galapagos sharks ranging from 5-10 feet, absolutely mind blowing. Some of them were curious and came close to us! It was a little scared first, but the guide kept us safe during the whole time. While we were enjoying that magical moment another crew member took great pictures of the encounter.
Absolutely a must-do activity if you are in Hawaii. I would love to go out with the Islandview Hawaii crew again!

Fantastic!

Reviewed by: George

This was an awesome experience. I had done the shark cage before, but I never thought that I'd be able to swim with the sharks without cage. I was a bit skeptical about the safety, but once I was in the water, I didn't feel threatened at all. It was just a calm and relaxing experience, and the sharks were not interested in humans at all. The sharks we saw were mostly Sandbar Sharks and Galapagos Sharks, and they only eat fish. They were more attracted to the sound/vibration of the boat engine. So the guide instructed us to stay away from the boat, and we stayed together as a group. We only have a group of 5 with 1 guide and 1 photographer in the water, so the experience was very intimate.

I highly recommend this activity to anyone, and really observe the sharks in their environment. Forget about Shark Weeks, Jaws, etc., and go see them with their own eyes so you can cure people's misconception about these beautiful creatures.

Reviewed by: ピカチュウ

We were picked up at our hotel in Hawaii at 5:30 AM! From there, it took about an hour to get to the North Shore, where we switched to a boat and listened to an explanation. Since there was no Japanese guide, I could only catch bits and pieces. They lent us goggles, and we entered the cage to be among the sharks. The sharks were quite calm and swam around us leisurely. They seemed to be fed regularly, so they were pretty docile. But still, they were sharks!! It was quite impressive! I had an incident where the goggles didn't fit well, and seawater got into my nose, causing a nosebleed, but overall, I think I enjoyed it! If you're prone to seasickness, I recommend being prepared. I think this is an experience you can only have in Hawaii, so definitely consider joining the tour!

朝5時半にハワイホテルにお迎えきました！！

船酔いしやすい方は覚悟をしてった方がいいと思います。

Amazing experience swimming with sharks!

Reviewed by: Amy Walter

First time ever swimming with sharks and it was definitely one of the coolest experiences of my life. Naturally, I was pretty nervous but the moment I stepped on the boat and met the owner/boat captain and his two employees I was immediately put at ease. They are all local guys who are extremely knowledgeable about sharks, told us what to expect, and gave very specific instructions. The owner said he has been doing this for 30 years. Plus, they were very kind and personable which added to the experience.The safety swimmer gets in the water before you and is with you the entire time. He will hold your hand if you are nervous. Sharks are misunderstood creatures so put your preconceived notions and fears about them aside and go on this adventure! You won't regret it!

While the experience was great I would have rather not gone in rough seas. The sea was really rough and was very disappointed that the captain did not scratch the trip. My nephew got sea sick and wasn't able to go in the water and ruined his experience. The rest of our group went in the cage and was bounced around so much that taking pictures were next to impossible. When we got back the captain told us his GoPro did not work. So no pictures.I would have like the captain or company to be more considerate of the conditions.
