I was worried about seasickness, but according to the captain, it was a calm sea, which happens only about 30 days a year—lucky us! He mentioned that usually, someone ends up throwing up (laughs).
Although the explanation was only in English, the most important rule was: do not stick your hands and feet outside the cage! Fortunately, there were no shark attacks. We took our time and got to enjoy a lifetime's worth of sharks up close!
船酔いを心配しましたが、船長さん曰く年に30日あるかどうかの穏やかな海、ラッキーだね、とのこと。いつもは一人は吐く人がいるそうです (笑)
英語のみの説明ですが、重要なのは1つ。ケージの外に手足を出さない!でした。サメにアタックされることはなかったです。結構じっくり時間を取ってくれて、一生分のサメを近距離で堪能しました!

It was really amazing. The guys were really nice and funny, answering every questions. We stayed really long in the cage and at no time we felt unsecure. We saw many sharks all around the cage and coming close to the boat. If you can, ask for them to take the pictures with a gopro, they'll be a lot and you won't have to worry about it.

This tour turns everything you think you knew about sharks completely on its head. After a short ride out from the harbor, you arrive at your snorkel site. You quickly and quietly get in the water (with no cage!) and voila, you are swimming with 5-8 foot sharks all around. This was a very professionally run and awesome adventure on the North Shore. Highly recommended to anyone with a sense of adventure.

I went on April 4, 2016! It was very convenient with pickup from the hotel in Waikiki and the harbor! Both the microbus and the boat only spoke English, so those who are not good at English might struggle a bit to understand. It takes about 50 minutes by car from Waikiki to the North Shore. The boat ride to the shark spot takes about 20 minutes. It shakes quite a bit! If you get seasick, be careful! It might be good to bring water and gum, in addition to seasickness medication. Once on the boat, after the captain explains the precautions, we split into two teams and put on the provided snorkels to enter the cage in the ocean. There were about 20 carnivorous sharks swimming around, around 2-3 meters long. They swim close to the cage, but they are calm (maybe they are used to humans?), so it's not very scary! We enjoyed snorkeling in the water for about 15 minutes before switching teams. Tips can be placed in the tip box on the boat. It's optional. They also offer a video for an additional $70, filmed with a GoPro. Original T-shirts were also on sale.
2016年4月4日に行きました!ワイキキのホテルと船着場までの送迎付きで、とっても楽でした!マイクロバスも船も英語のみなので、英語が得意じゃない方はちょっと理解するのに苦労するかも。ワイキキからノースショアまで車で約50分。船に乗ってサメスポットまで約20分。かなり揺れます!船酔いする方は要注意!水とガムなど、酔い止め以外にも持参した方が良いかも。船に乗り込んだら、船長さんから、注意事項を説明いただいた後に、2チームに分かれて、支給されるシュノーケルを装着して沖にある檻に入ります。2〜3mほどの肉食のサメが20匹ほど泳いでいました。檻の近くまで泳いできますが、おとなしい(人間に慣れているのかな?)あまり怖くありません!15分ほど海の中でゆらゆらとシュノーケリングを楽しんで、チーム交代。チップは船の中にあるチップ入れへ入れます。任意です。ビデオは別途70でGoProで撮ってくれます。オリジナルTシャツも販売されていました。

Such an amazing experience! I have been wanting to swim with sharks since I was a child, and have always been fascinated by them. Being in a small group of 6 makes the experience much more personal, and you get a good amount of swim time. We had 10 sharks total on our swim, all varying at different times, not all at once. My brother came along for the experience and he loved every bit of it, as I did. I am so glad I did this, and can't wait to do it again one day!!

My friend and I were completely freaking out before we went out on this tour, but afterwards, we just wanted to go again and again! There is nothing as strangely calming and thrilling than to be in the open ocean with what seems likes hundreds of sharks swimming below you.
With only six passengers, we all got lots of attention and assistance, and during the ride out, our safety guides told us all about the sharks and other creatures we would see as well as what to do while we are in the water. There was not a moment after I boarded the boat that I felt uneasy or unsafe. I knew that the captain and crew had not only our best interests at heart, but the sharks as well.
It was a humbling experience to be in the shark's home and it is something that I will treasure forever!

- If you arrange for transportation, it will be $60 per person, so you can cover the rental car cost.
- We arrived in about an hour from Honolulu.
- We had the early morning plan and departed before sunrise.
- We were the second group, but just before entering the water, the sun rose and it got warm.
- We didn't encounter anything other than the sandbar shark.
- We were packed into a cage with six people, so there were a lot of us and we couldn't move freely.

OK, so the idea of going to 'find' sharks as opposed to avoiding them at all costs can take a little getting used to. However once I'd gotten over that, I have to say this is one of the most exhilarating experiences I've had (and enjoyed) on the island.
There's two basic times that you can go out, Super early or Early, Yes that's right, Don't plan on a late night in the bar the night before trying to drum up Dutch courage because this boat leaves early and you want to get your sleep in.
After a leisurely 20-25 mins boat ride out (i think they said about 2 miles) to the dive site you arrive in an open water area, engines are cut and you pull up next to the cage. A quick chat from the crew, and two groups are selected A & B, This ensures you have maximum space in the cage and is a really cool idea.
We climbed in first, GoPro's on and ready to start shooting...
The cage is actually rather large and you definitely want to be up close to the bars hold on, and go down to get your first glimpse... I'm not going to say much more on what you'll see but I will say, This is a guaranteed sharks (plural, many lol) shark tank dive. They big, upclose and personal and you are totally safe in your secure housing...
You get ample time to take selfies, group shots, dive down again, hold the bottom of the cage etc as these amazing creatures swim all around you.
I'd forgot my wrist strap for my cam, No problem, The crew guy noticed as I was getting ready ad gave me a cool wrist-strap for it (thick rubber band!) Awesome Service.
Highly Recommended. 5*

The tour itself was really fun. The North Shore is famous for its high waves and surfing, so the ride to the destination was quite bumpy. Even I, who usually doesn't get seasick, felt a bit unwell. There were about 4 to 5 other people who also looked like they were feeling sick, and some were even vomiting. If you're joining the tour, don't forget to bring motion sickness medication.
ツアー自体はすごく楽しかったです。ノースショアはサーフィンで有名な高波のビーチなので、目的地まで向かう間はかなり揺れます。普段、船酔いしない私でも気分が悪くなりました。
自分以外にも4~5人気分の悪そうな方がいましたし、吐いている方もおられました。ツアーに参加される方は酔い止めをお忘れなく。

It was an early morning tour, and I was really worried that the water would be cold, but surprisingly, once I got in, it wasn't that cold at all. From the moment I saw the sharks, I was completely captivated (laughs). However, the boat was really rocky, so snorkeling didn't make much sense (laughs). I took motion sickness medicine, so I didn't feel seasick at all, and when we boarded, no one felt unwell. I was satisfied with the number of sharks we saw! However, because of the rocking, I couldn't take very nice photos~ ★ It’s expensive, but buying the DVD might be a good idea~. We did (laughs). Since it's something you can't do often, it's worth it (^^)/ I recommend it for those looking for excitement~ (^◇^).
朝早いツアーだったのと、水が冷たいんじゃないかとそれがすごく心配だったが、意外と入ってしまえばそこまで寒くもなく、もうシャークが見えた瞬間から夢中(笑)ただ揺れがすごいからシュノーケルはあまり意味なし(笑)酔い止め飲んでたからまったく船酔いもせずにうちらが乗ったときは誰一人として具合悪い人いなかった。かなりの数のシャーク見れて満足!ただやっぱり揺れがすごいから写真はあまりきれいにとれなかったな~★高いけどDVD買うのがいいかも~。うちらはかった(笑)なかなかできないことだからやる価値はあり(^^)/刺激が欲しい人にはおススメ~(^◇^)

My husband and I participated in the first morning session. I was a bit anxious about whether our reservation was confirmed, but we were picked up on time by a car with a big shark picture on it ( ˊᵕˋ ). It was tough getting up at 5:30 AM, though (laughs).
After about an hour's drive, we arrived and boarded the boat!!! The crew didn't speak any Japanese, so we read the instructions in Japanese. Even though they couldn't speak Japanese, they communicated well through gestures, so it wasn't a problem at all♪ On the way to the shark spot, they playfully startled us with shark dolls and checked to see if we were feeling okay; they were really nice people.
When we reached the spot, there were so many sharks on the surface!!! Since our turn was third, we watched the sharks swimming around. The journey to the spot was fine, but once the boat stopped, I started to feel a bit seasick (laughs). It seemed like everyone else felt the same way (laughs). We didn't get to the point of throwing up, but a few people did look like they were struggling (;▽;).
However, when it was our turn, our excitement took over, and the seasickness disappeared! The sharks we saw right in front of us were absolutely beautiful! They didn't bump into the cage, just swimming around it gracefully (*˘︶˘*). There were more than ten sharks♪ But some people inside the cage looked a bit seasick and unwell (;▽;). I wouldn't recommend this for those who are prone to motion sickness (;▽;).
But it was an incredibly valuable experience!!!
旦那と二人で朝イチの部で参加しました。
ちゃんと予約できてるか不安でしたが、時間通りにサメの絵が大きく載った車でお迎えにきてもらいました( ˊᵕˋ )朝5:30でさすがにつらかったですが(笑)

ポイントまでの道のりは全然平気でしたか、船が止まるとすこーしずつ酔ってきました(笑)みなさんそんな感じでした(笑)私たちは吐くまではなかったけど、何人かは吐いていてつらそうでした(;▽;)

I can barely swim and I'm too scared to dive even with a snorkel, but my wife is a diver and wanted to do some ocean activities together, so I thought this might work out... and signed up.
The transportation and local arrangements were normal, without any particular issues. We took off our shoes and boarded the boat with about 20 people, of which only about six were Japanese. Along the way, we read a Japanese lecture file.
The sea at the North Shore was somewhat rough, and the boat rocked quite a bit. The Japanese student group that was with us was almost seasick. If you're prone to motion sickness, it's better to skip this. Even after we got into the cage, the waves were rough and it was tough.
I later heard that the North Shore is calm only around July to August. We were able to see sharks up close, so it's a good activity for those who like that, but personally, it was extremely challenging for me... I was overestimating my abilities. My wife was very happy, though.
