花火鑑賞セーリング ホロカイ・カタマラン号 <金曜日限定/アウトリガー・リーフ発>

It was fun. 楽しかったですよ

Reviewed by: もんた

At the reception, I was asked to sign various documents, and when I showed the VELTRA voucher, I was handed an iPad, so I had to complete some procedures on the iPad as well—I'm not sure why that was necessary.

You’ll be walking through a lot of sand and even getting your feet wet before boarding, so beach sandals might be a good choice! We wore sneakers, so we ended up going barefoot.

The fireworks are brief, so it’s more about enjoying the night view of the beach while drinking from the sea. I was satisfied.

受付で諸々についてのサインをさせられますが、VELTRAのバウチャーを見せたところiPadを渡されてiPad上での手続きも必要でした~なんでかな?
乗船までは埋もれるくらいの砂を歩き水にも浸かるのでので履物はビーチサンダルが良いかも!私達はスニーカーだったので裸足になりました。
花火は短時間なので、海からビーチの夜景をお酒を飲みながら楽しむという感じです。満足です。

花火鑑賞セーリング ホロカイ・カタマラン号 <金曜日限定/アウトリガー・リーフ発>

Enjoy the night view and fireworks of Waikiki with a glass of wine! ワイキキの夜景と花火をワイン片手に!

Reviewed by: vanilla

This is my third time participating. The fireworks themselves are short, so I think it's better to approach it with the mindset that you can see the fireworks during the night cruising. They anchor the boat so that you can see the fireworks from any seat. The staff is always friendly and enjoyable. The view of the fireworks from the sea along with the night scenery of Waikiki... I think it's a great value.

今回3回目の参加です。花火そのものは短いのであくまでナイトクルージングに花火が見られる、という気持ちでいた方良いと思います。どこの席に座っても花火が見えるように停泊してくれます。スタッフもいつも楽しく感じよく。海から眺める花火とワイキキの夜景・・・ お値打ちだと思います。

花火鑑賞 ナイトセーリング  2種類の船から選べる!ロマンチックな夜のクルーズ ドリンク購入可<金曜日限定/アラワイボートハーバー発>

Beyond expectations cruising 期待以上のクルージング

Reviewed by: norimaki

We were enjoying a lively cruise with the captain's MC and the people around us, but as the sun began to set, the atmosphere turned quietly romantic.

As the sun sank lower, we thought we saw a large airship rising in the east, but it turned out to be a giant full moon. At that moment, a couple appeared to propose with a ring, and the excitement on the ship reached a peak.

In the end, the evening was capped off with a small fireworks display, reminiscent of bidding farewell to summer.

船長のMCのもと周りの人達とワイワイ言いながらクルージングを楽しんでいましたが、やがて日が暮れてくるとしんみりロマンチックな雰囲気に。

さらに、日が沈んでいくにつれ、東に大きな飛行船が上がってきた?と思ったら、それは巨大な満月でした。
そこで、指輪を差し出して結婚を申し込みするカップルも現れ、船内は大盛り上り。

最後は、ゆく夏を惜しむがごとき小さめの花火で締め括られました。

  • ワイキキから上がって来た月はダイアモンドヘッドの上を登っていきます

  • 港を出てから、船は夕日に向かい、その後、ダイアモンドヘッド(月)に向かってダイナミックなクルージングをしたりと景色は絶えず変化します。

  • 実はこの看板を見つけるのに苦労した。グーグルマップの住所から探すと全く違うところになってしまった。

Waikiki Sunset Dinner & Fireworks Sail with Cocktails - Spirit of Aloha Cruises

Sunset + City lights + Fireworks

Reviewed by: Yes to Hawaii

LOVED this catamaran! I had been on this same catamaran previously for their Turtle Canyon snorkel cruise so I knew I would like the boat. I liked that the boat check-in was here in Waikiki at the Hilton Village making it super convenient. This saves some transit time from going to some of the farther harbors (i.e. Kewalo Basin Harbor, Honolulu Harbor, etc.). We spent the best day just hanging out at the beach then just walked over to the Port Hilton kiosk to check-in.

I also liked the later departure time than most other sunset cruises so we could have a full beach day and still have time to hop on the catamaran. The dinner was a smaller portion prepackaged & more like appetizers than a full-on dinner. The drinks were tasty & buying more beyond the 2 included was $2/each - not a bad bargain. Since we were on the Hilton's pier, we were super close to the fireworks and were coming into the Port Hilton just as the fireworks were going off.

If you get cold easily, I would recommend packing a windbreaker or light sweater. It doesn't get cold here but it does get VERY BREEZY on the water at night once the sun goes down. I had a super light windbreaker which I didn't actually have to even use until about 1.5 hours into the cruise.

Overall, great cruise! So much fun!

  • Gorgeous view from the water!

The staff's consideration, hospitality, and the cruise itself were excellent! スタッフさんの配慮、おもてなし、クルーズそのもの、最高!

Reviewed by: ペンギン

Typically, the seats of other people are right next to you, and since everyone is not wearing masks, if you are concerned about COVID, the restrictions in Japan are completely different, so at the very least, wearing a mask is necessary.
I attended alone, but considering my seating, I was allowed to sit in a special reserve seat and thoroughly enjoyed myself.
The colors of the sunset were indescribable, a pink hue that is rarely seen in Japan, and it dyed the sea that color as well.
Since we set sail while it was still bright, the view of the buildings in Waikiki and the mountains behind them from the ocean was fantastic, and especially the night view after it got dark was amazing.
The cruise lasts for two hours until the fireworks start, so you can really enjoy it.

通常であれば他の人の席はすぐ横で、皆さん、マスク等もしていないので、コロナを気にされるなら、日本での制限状況とは全く違うので、最低限マスクは必要です。
一人での参加だったのですが、席を考えていただき、特別の予備席に座らせていただき満喫できました。
夕焼けの色はなんとも言えない日本ではなかなか見れないピンク色で海までそのピ色に染まってました。
明るいうちから出港するので、沖から眺めるワイキキの建物と後ろの山々の景色は最高で、とりわけ暗くなってからの夜景も最高です。
クルーズの時間が花火が上がるまでの2時間あるので、かなり満喫できます。

Omg. The music, the people, the fact you can bring unlimited amount of booze and have a great time is always 5 stars in my book. The captain, crew and DJ all lived up to my standards.

サンセット・ディナーセーリング スピリット・オブ・アロハ号 <金曜日限定/ヒルトン・ハワイアン・ビレッジ発>

The fireworks viewed from the sea at night, the best location. 夜の海から見る花火、最高のロケーション

Reviewed by: あきらっち

I participated in my first sunset dinner sailing. The meeting place is quite small, so you might overlook it... Be careful not to arrive too early, as there won't be any staff present before the meeting time. Since the maximum number of passengers is limited, I recommend making a reservation early. It's a sunset cruise, so you can see the romantic views of Diamond Head and the streets of Waikiki from the sea. The boat also raises its sails, so there’s no engine noise, allowing for a smooth drift over the water, leading to the evening fireworks.

初めてのサンセット・ディナーセーリングに参加。
集合場所はとてもこじんまりした所なので見落としちゃうかも・・・集合時間よりあまり早めに行くと係員が居ないので注意です。
最高乗船人数が少ないので早めの予約がオススメ。
サンセットクルーズなので夕暮れのダイヤモンドヘッドやワイキキの街並みを海側から見れてロマンチック。船も帆を立てるのでエンジン音もなく、スムーズに海を漂い、夜の花火へ

Great value for a great cruise

Reviewed by: J. Taylor

The crew were friendly and helpful, drinks were plentiful (both alcoholic and non), seating was ample and the view of the city, fireworks, stars & moon were stunning. This was my family's "make up" for not being able to stay awake for New Year's eve, and it was worth the cost and hassle of finding parking in Waikiki. My only request would be for better directions to the spot because Duke's is not obvious from the street, and also to remind people while we're checking in (and still on land) to use the bathroom of the nearby restroom - and point out where that is at.

The fireworks viewed from the sea were beautifully reflected against the backdrop of the hotels in Waikiki. 海上からの花火見学 ワイキキのホテル群をバックにきれいに映えてました

Reviewed by: penchan

I boarded the Aloha with about 30 participants from the pier. To prevent water and dirt from getting on our feet, we handed our belongings to the crew when boarding and received them back upon returning to the pier.

The two drink tickets given at check-in can be exchanged for drinks of your choice, but the crew will also serve drinks without tickets, so in a way, there are no restrictions. Apart from us, there was one couple and a man who boarded alone for photography, along with couples and families from overseas.

It was a bit chilly outside due to the strong wind, but it’s not a long voyage, so it’s manageable. The fireworks against the backdrop of the Hilton Hawaiian Village last only about five minutes, but they are as spectacular as the finale of a Japanese fireworks festival. This short evening activity is convenient to enjoy after daytime sightseeing or water play.

Although it’s called a buffet, it’s more of a light snack rather than a lavish spread. Enjoy the fireworks with the image of flowers rather than dumplings!

船着き場の突堤から30人ほどの参加者と一緒にアロハ号に乗り込みました。足元は水濡れや船内の汚れ防止のためか乗り込む際にクルーに預け、突堤に帰港した際、受け取ります。
チェックインの際に渡されたドリンクチケット2枚で飲みたいドリンクと交換ですが、チケットなしでもクルーが欲しいドリンクを出してくれるのである意味制限なしみたいなものです。日本人は我々以外にご夫妻が1組と単独で写真撮影のために乗船した男性一人 あとは海外からのカップル 家族でした。 船外は風が強くやや冷えますが長時間の航海ではないので大丈夫です。 ヒルトンハワイアンビレッジをバックに打ちあがる花火はわずか5分ほどですが、日本の花火大会で云うフィナーレのような打ち上げで華やかです。夕方からの短時間のアクティビティですので日中の観光や水遊びの後に楽しめるのでお手軽です。ビュッフェと云っても豪華なものではなくスナック程度の軽食と思っていただいた方がいいです。花より団子ではなく団子より花のイメージで花火を楽しまれるといいですよ
