It was fun! 楽しかった！

Reviewed by: kristin

What was great was that there were no other Japanese people besides us. When you often book optional marine sports tours, they tend to be filled with Japanese participants, but in this case, there were no other Japanese except for us. Consequently, the language spoken by the instructor was English, which might be tough for those who don't speak it. Additionally, only the minimum safety instructions for snorkeling were provided, so beginners might feel anxious. That said, when I did snorkeling for the first time, I just jumped in and copied what I saw, so it might be okay even for complete beginners.

On the day of the tour, I made a mistake with the meeting time and was late, but as soon as I realized my mistake and called, they laughed and said they would wait for me. That was a relief...

The snorkeling spot was amazing; there were so many turtles, and I encountered a lot of turtles and fish! After snorkeling, we had a cruise from off Waikiki to around Diamond Head, which was also great! I would love to join this tour again.

良かったのは、なによりも日本人が私たち以外いなかったこと。
良くマリンスポーツのオプショナルツアーを申し込むと、日本人だらけのツアーになりがちなのですが、これは日本人は私たち以外いませんでした。
必然的にインストラクターの喋る言語は英語なので、英語が出来ない人には辛いかもしれません。
また、シュノーケルに関する最低限の注意事項のみしかレクチャーされないため、シュノーケルが初めての人は不安に感じるかもしれません。
といっても私も初めてシュノーケルをやった時は見よう見真似でいきなりやったので、全くの初心者でも大丈夫なのかもしれませんが。

当日、集合時間を間違え遅刻をしたのですが、その間違いに気が付いた瞬間、電話をしたら、笑って待っててもらえました。良かった・・・。

シュノーケルをしたポイントは、本当に亀がいっぱいいたので、沢山の亀と魚に出会えましたよ！
シュノーケル後は、ワイキキ沖からダイヤモンドヘッドあたりまでのクルーズがついていたので、それも良かったです！
またこのツアーに参加したいです。

Full of honu (sea turtles). ホヌだらけ

Reviewed by: ひまわり

I participated alone, leaving my friend who is prone to seasickness behind. This tour is perfect for those who want to see sea turtles! If you wait, they come up to the surface for air, so even those who can't dive can see them up close. It's definitely better than the roped-off basking area at Laniakea Beach (laughs).

I read that they don't provide fins, so I brought my own. I didn't use them, but the floating stick that serves as a life jacket seemed a bit unreliable, so I think those who aren't confident in their swimming should wear a rash guard or bring a floatie for a more enjoyable experience.

There were only black fish, so you can't expect to see tropical fish while snorkeling. It was disappointing that we couldn't see dolphins during the cruising, but it was still a pleasant experience.

船酔いに弱いツレを置いて一人で参加しました。
ウミガメを見たい！って人にはもってこいのツアーです。

Capt Mike and his deckhand Travis were awesome. We saw plenty of sea turtles and a baby dolphin even did a flip for us! The sailing after the snorkeling was so relaxing as we cruised by diamond head. It's like an adventure that comes from a movie. The catamaran was big and comfortable. I miss Hawaii just reminiscing on this adventure. This is a must go cruise and snorkel trip.

At Outrigger Reef on the Beach, you can check in, board the boat, and store your beach sandals right on the beach. They also offer commemorative photo sessions for $15. The activity starts when the staff arrives with the participant list at the designated time.

There is an area offshore where you can see schools of fish and green sea turtles, and many participants enjoy snorkeling there until they get bored and return to the boat (about 30 minutes). Life jackets are not provided during the ride. For concerns about buoyancy while snorkeling, soft foam noodles are available for use. Once everyone is back on the boat, drink orders are taken, and then you sail around Diamond Head until it's time to return. During this time, you might encounter dolphins or get soaked by big waves.

There is an emergency toilet located in the left hull of the catamaran.

Uncomfortable ride!!!

Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous

Positives of this tour are it's location right outside the Outrigger Reef, the water was warm and saw quite a few turtles dolphins and fish, and overall good value for money.
The staff were just ok, nothing special. No commentary on anything except a few minutes on the rules and how to snorkel. The big negative for us was how uncomfortable the ride was on the catamaran for almost the entire time on the boat. We wanted to sit on the bench seats provided, but was told we would have to all sit on or around the netting area to help balance the boat. For my wife and I this became extremely uncomfortable after a short while, with no cushions or anything like that provided to make it somewhat comfortable. It ruined the cruise for us. Next time we will book a tour on a bigger boat that provides seating for it's guests.

Such great fun! And what a bargain!

Reviewed by: Mrs. Means

My husband & I are in Oahu in our honeymoon and we saw this and had to book it. The staff is so friendly and helpful! We sat on the nets, which going there was fun and what you would expect, but after snorkeling they take you sailing for a unique look at the island, but beware if you are sitting on the net..you WILL get soaked...but it truly is so much fun! They take you to the reef where turtles go to go their backs cleaned by fish. My recommendation when you swim to watch the turtles is to hang out on the side of the group. Most people will huddle over the turtles, but the have to come up for air, so if you are not in the chunk of people you will get a closer look because they will head your way for air! We saw lots of them and even some baby turtles! The fish in the water are beautiful as well and will swim all around you. I think it is definitely worth the $51! Book today and don't forget your underwater camera like I did!

Not for first timers

Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous

I attended this with my husband and son. They are both strong swimmers, but I am not. I've never snorkeled before, and this is not where I should have tried it for the first time. I had a life jacket on, so I knew I was safe, but the water was very deep, and the water had 4-6 foot swells. We had to swim against the current to get to the turtles. The waves were too much for me, I got tired quickly, I was uncomfortable with it being so deep, and the waves so high, so I got back in the boat. My husband and son enjoyed it though, and got up close to the turtles. At one point some spinner dolphins approached the group, but because everyone is looking down, only a few of the swimmers saw them. The leader stayed with the group, and I felt the staff were excellent. After the snorkeling they put up the sail and we took off past Diamond Head, looking for whales. We didnt see any, but we spotted some bottle nose dolphins in the distance. And the ride was fun. The lunch was very basic

Easy snorkeling from Waikiki. ワイキキから手軽にシュノーケリング

Reviewed by: Hide

Many snorkeling tours go far from Waikiki, but this tour's appeal was its convenience of not having to travel far.

The first half was snorkeling off the coast of Waikiki, and the second half was cruising up to Diamond Head.

I was a bit worried since it was an English tour, but it turned out to be such a fun experience that I didn't mind at all.

Depending on the day, the meeting time is at 7:30 AM, and it finishes in the morning, allowing you to schedule other activities in the afternoon. (In fact, I went on a tour to Manoa Falls that departed at 1 PM.)

Also, they took a commemorative photo before boarding, but when I tried to pick it up after disembarking, they asked for $15. I didn't have cash on me, so I declined, but I recommend bringing money if you want a keepsake.

シュノーケリングのツアーはワイキキから車で遠いところに行くものが多いのですが、このツアーはワイキキから遠出しない手軽さが魅力でした。

前半はワイキキ沖でシュノーケリング、後半はダイヤモンドヘッド沖までクルージングという内容でした。

英語ツアーということで若干心配でしたが、そんなことは気にならなくなるぐらい楽しいツアーでした。

曜日にもよりますが、７時半集合で午前中に終わるので、午後に別の予定を入れることも可能です。
（実際、13時発のマノア滝のツアーに行きました。）

なお、乗船前に記念写真を撮ってもらったのですが、下船時に受け取ろうとしたら「15ドル」とのことでした。
僕は手持ちがなかったので断ったのですが、記念に欲しい方はお金を用意していかれることをおすすめします。

The weather is not great. お天気はいま一つ

Reviewed by: Katie

Only two groups (a total of four people) participated, so we had the hammocks to ourselves, which felt like a great deal. It might be due to winter, but the weather wasn't the best, and it was a bit chilly while sailing. However, the water wasn't as cold as I expected, and the sea was very clear, making snorkeling enjoyable. I knew from reviews that fins weren't provided, so I brought my own. Not only fins, but we were also allowed to bring our own food and drinks.

It seemed they scattered some bait before snorkeling, as there were plenty of fish. While there weren't many colorful fish, there were a lot of them, and I was really impressed when I first entered the water. Additionally, there were many sea turtles. They weren't at all wary when I approached, and I was able to swim alongside them for a little while.

Seeing Waikiki from offshore and watching the catamaran raise and lower its sails made for a great experience.

参加は二組（計４名)だけで、ハンモックの上を半分ずつ、貸切状態で、お得感がありました。
冬なので仕方ないかもしれませんが、お天気がいま一つで、セーリング中は少し寒かったです。
でも、思ったより水は冷たくなく、海の透明度も高く、シュノーケリングは楽しめました。体験談からフィンの貸し出しがないのがわかっていたので、自分でフィンを持参しました。フィンだけでなく、食べ物や飲み物も持ち込みＯＫでした。
シュノーケリング前に餌を撒いてくれたようで、魚がたくさんいました。カラフルな魚はいなかったのですが、とにかくいっぱいいて、初めに海に入った時は感動でした。
そして、海亀もたくさんいました。近寄ってもちっとも警戒せず、少しだけ一緒に泳げました。
ワイキキ沖からワイキキを見れて、カタマランの帆を張ったりしまったりも見れたので、良い体験ができました。

YOU DO SEE TURTLES! Amazing experience- we saw 5 large sea turtles at the cleaning station. We had a large one come up for air literally right in front of us- I could have reached out and touched it! We also saw dolphins and several large fish. If you want to see turtles, this is the snorkel for you... If you're looking for a close-up of tropical fish - go to a different site.

Snorkeling included is the best! シュノーケリング付き最高！

Reviewed by: S＆J from 湘南

Sailing off Waikiki at an incredible speed was refreshing! It was also great to enjoy snorkeling.

I was told, "The turtles are used to people and won't be scared to come close, but don't touch them," but I never expected they would come so close... There were always 3 to 4 turtles swimming nearby, and when they surfaced for air, they were so close that I could almost touch them—they're really big.

The sailing speed was fast, and it was quite bumpy, but as long as I looked out at the distance and enjoyed the wind, it was fine. I'm glad I chose one that fit my needs among the various catamaran sailing options. There were no other Japanese people, but I didn't feel particularly worried about that.

すごいスピードでワイキキ沖を爽快セイリング！シュノーケリングも楽しめてとても良かったです。
『カメは人になれてて怖がらないで近くにくるけど触っちゃダメ』と言ってたけど、あんなに近づいてくるとは思わなかった・・・。３~４匹のカメが常に近くをまわってたし、息継ぎに浮き上がってくると触れるくらい近くとにかくデカイ。
帆走スピードが速くて、結構揺れたけど、遠くをみるようにして風に当たって楽しく参加したら大丈夫でした。
いろんなカタマランセイリングがある中から、自分のニーズにあったのを選んでよかったです。日本人は誰もいなかったけど特に心配もないし。

In addition, they are educating you so you really "swim" away knowing more than when you came. The sailing portion was really relaxing and peaceful.

Reviewed by: うみぼうず

I participated in mid-November.

The day before, I went to take sunset photos while confirming the meeting place, and since the catamaran had just returned, I assumed this was the right spot. However, when I arrived on the day, the catamaran was gone, and I panicked. I asked a nearby hotel staff, and they said it was "five hotels down." Since I was cutting it close to the meeting time, I dashed over, and just as I did, the catamaran was coming towards the beach from offshore. (Sweat, sweat, sweat)
≪Refer to the sign in the photo for the meeting place...≫

I misunderstood because the hotel was part of the same group.
(The meeting place is in front of Outrigger Reef on the Beach, but I ended up at Outrigger Waikiki on the Beach. Please be careful.) Looking back, the catamaran that returned was also a different boat.

At the reception, there was one staff member who understood some Japanese (they had a Japanese reference book), but the other staff seemed not to understand Japanese.

Once on board, there was an explanation of precautions, all in English (which is to be expected).

About five minutes in, my wife got seasick. (I recommend taking seasickness medication for those who are prone to it.)
When we reached the turtle habitat point, snorkeling and free diving began (you can dive about 10 meters).
We stayed there for about an hour.
We encountered over ten turtles, which was incredibly moving.

After that, we cruised around the bay and were able to see Diamond Head and the hotel cluster from the sea, which was also impressive.

Next time, I would like to take the sunset cruise and see the sunset from the boat.

Not for beginning snorkelers

Reviewed by: humuhumunukunukuapua'a

I went on this tour with my friend, both of us have grown up around the water and have been snorkeling many times in Hawaii. On this tour, they take you to a snorkel spot called turtle canyon. However, turtle canyon is between 40 and 50 feet deep and your basically staring down at a reef that is so far down there are scuba divers below you AND it is not a secluded snorkeling spot but rather an open ocean spot far away from the shore of waikiki beach... like, past where the surfers are!
I found it to be a little scary and the "guide" kept swimming off leaving my friend and I to chase him and not guiding us at all. Once the word "sharks" was mentioned, i swam back to the boat (a 5minute swim back btw).
On another note, the sailing part was lovely and relaxing and we saw TONS OF DOLPHINS, the lunch was good as was the champagne and other drinks. The crew was great as well... except for the snorkel guide that kept leaving us to float alone in the middle of the ocean.

Cruising is the best. クルージングは最高です。

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

When I arrived at the meeting time, I was informed that the departure would be delayed by an hour, so we ended up waiting around the hotel area. In the promotional photos, there was a large catamaran with blue sails from Outrigger, but the actual boat we boarded was a smaller catamaran with pink sails, and it felt more like a family cruise with three staff members and about ten participants.

It was disappointing that there were no life vests available and that fins couldn't be rented, which limited our snorkeling experience. However, it was great to see many turtles up close.

After that, we cruised about an hour offshore. The wind felt nice, and the color of the sea became increasingly vibrant and beautiful. We went as far as the lighthouse past Diamond Head. We took motion sickness medication, so we were fine, but the boat was quite rocky, and a few people got seasick. The staff was very kind and provided water and ice to those who were feeling unwell. Next time, I would like to join a tour that focuses solely on cruising.

当日集合時間に行くと、１時間遅れでの出発と案内され、ホテル周辺で時間をつぶしての出発となりました。イメージ写真では、アウトリガーの青い帆の大きい目のカタマランでしたが、実際に乗ったのは、ピンクの帆の小さめのカタマランで、スタップ３名と参加者は１０名程度で家族クルーズのような小さいツアーとなりました。
ライフベストがなかったこと、足ひれがレンタルできないので思いっきりシュノーケルできないのは残念でした。ただ、たくさんのカメが近くで見れたのは良かったです。
その後は、１時間ほど沖までクルージングでした。風が気持よく、海の色がどんどん濃くなりとてもきれいでした。ダイアモンドヘッド先の灯台あたりまで行きました。私たちは酔い止めを飲んでいて大丈夫でしたが、揺れがすごくて数人の方が船酔いでダウンされていました。スタッフの対応はとても親切で体調の悪い方には、水や氷を渡したりされていました。次回は、クルージングのみのツアーに参加してみたいです。

I found this site before my trip, and it looked interesting, so I made a reservation and participated.

I had heard beforehand that there wouldn't be any Japanese participants, but I thought it would be fine and went without hesitation, only to find that we were indeed the only Japanese people there.

However, since everyone was just travelers from different places, we all got along well and enjoyed ourselves without much concern.

Personally, I can hardly speak English, but the staff member was friendly and nice, so I thoroughly enjoyed both the cruising and snorkeling!

The snorkeling spot was off the coast of Waikiki, about 10 meters deep, and there were plenty of fish and sea turtles.

I brought a waterproof digital camera, but I struggled to take good pictures of the sea turtles swimming nearby. Fortunately, a crew member who looked like a dolphin took some really beautiful photos for me.

There were no fins available for rent, just masks and snorkels, and swimming was limited to around the yacht, so it might not be enough for those who are into diving, but beginners can definitely have a great time (which was the case for my wife and me). Everyone participating was in the same boat.

After that, we enjoyed cruising while sailing back to Waikiki, heading towards Diamond Head.

This trip created unforgettable and enjoyable memories.

Since we finished around 10 AM, it was easy to plan our next activities.

I believe breakfast snacks were supposed to be included in the package, but we didn't quite understand the system and missed out. After we got back, we changed at the hotel and had breakfast (or maybe it was brunch?) at Island Vintage Cafe in the Royal Hawaiian Shopping Center, enjoying acai bowls before heading out to Kailua.

You might want to double-check about breakfast???

Also, there are several Outrigger Hotels in Waikiki, so make sure not to confuse the meeting location... (we made that mistake).

Anyway, it was a fantastic time, and I highly recommend it!

旅行前にこのサイトで知って、面白そうなので予約して参加しました。


事前情報で、日本人の参加者がいないって聞いていたものの、なんとかなるかな~と思って、ためらわず行ってみたら、本当に日本人は僕たちだけでした。

しかし、まあ所詮みんないろんなとこからやってきた旅行者同士の似たもの同士なので、あんま気兼ねなく思い思いに楽しんでいます。


個人的に英語はほとんど喋れないけれど、スタッフの兄ちゃんが気さくでいい人だったので、クルージングとシュノーケリングともに満喫させていただきました！！


シュノーケリングのポイントはワイキキの沖、水深１０ｍくらいで、魚や海亀がいっぱいいました。

防水デジカメ持参で行ったのですが、近くで泳ぐ海亀をなかなかうまく写真に収められず苦戦してたら、クリューのイルカみたいな兄ちゃんがすごく綺麗に撮ってくれました。

フィンのレンタルはなく、マスク、シュノーケルのみのレンタルでヨットの周りのみの遊泳なので、ダイビングやっている人には物足りないかもしれませんが、初心者でも十分楽しめます。（まさに今回の自分と妻がそうでした。まあ、参加している人みんな一緒です。）


その後はダイヤモンドヘッド沖まで帆走でクルージングを楽しみつつワイキキに戻りました。



今回の旅行の忘れられない楽しい思い出です。



午前１０時上がりなので、その後の予定も組みやすいです。


パックに軽食の朝ごはんが付いているはずだったのですが、僕らはシステムがよくわからず食いそびれたので、上がった後、ホテルで着替えて、ロイヤルハワイアンショッピングセンターのアイランドビンテージカフェでアサイボウルで朝食（？）を済ませて、カイルアに遊びに行きました。

朝食のとこは要確認かも？？？


あと、アウトリガーホテルはワイキキに何箇所かあるので、集合場所は間違えなきよう。。。。（うちは間違えた）




ともあれ、最高のひと時でした、かなりお勧めですよ！！

It was convenient to participate in the cruise from Waikiki.
No Japanese was understood at all.
The snorkeling time is about one hour.
There were no life jackets available for rent.
You can borrow something like a long tube.
On the way there, we saw a turtle, and on the way back, we saw dolphins.
I think it's good for those who understand English and are good at swimming.

　ワイキキからクルーズできるのが便利で参加しました。
日本語はまったく通じません。
　シュノーケルの時間は1時間位です。
ライフジャケットの貸し出しはありませんでした。
細長い筒のようなものは借りられます。
　行きにはカメ、帰りにはイルカが見えました。
英語がわかって、泳ぎが得意の方には良いと思います。

There are few participants from Japan, and Japanese is not widely understood, but it's incredibly fun. The crew is all nice guys, and sailing feels great. I want to use this again on my next trip.

日本の参加者は少ないし、日本語はあまり通じないですけど最高に楽しいです。
クルーはナイスガイばかりだし、セーリングはとても気持ちがいいです。
また次回の旅行でも利用したいです。

Departing from Waikiki Beach is unusual. ワイキキビーチ出発は珍しい

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

The charm of this tour departing from Outrigger Reef on the Beach is that it starts from Waikiki Beach. The morning meeting time is early, but I think it's still manageable.

On the day of the tour, it was windy and the waves were high, but we were able to see various fish and even sea turtles while snorkeling. Unfortunately, we didn't encounter any dolphins. Still, it was a relaxing and enjoyable tour.

Also, when we participated, there were zero Japanese people. It's a rare tour where you can truly feel like you're on an overseas trip. The explanations were in English and included some humor, which I couldn't fully understand, but the captain was kind enough to explain slowly using just a few words for us.

Since the tour ends in the morning, you can participate in other tours, go shopping, or relax on the beach in the afternoon, making it a meaningful way to spend the day.

It was a recommended tour for going with friends and having a great time together.

アウトリガー・リーフ・オン・ザ・ビーチより出るこのツアーの魅力はワイキキビーチから出発ということです。
朝の集合時間は早いですが、それでも楽だと思います。

当日は風が強くて波も高かったですが、シュノーケリングでは色んな魚、ウミガメにも会えました。
残念なのは、イルカに遭遇できなかったこと。
それでものんびり楽しめるツアーです。

また、私たちが参加した時は日本人ゼロ。
「海外旅行に来た」と味わえる珍しいツアーです。
説明なども英語で笑いを取っていたようですが、理解できなかったりもしましたが、キャプテンは私たちには単語のみでゆっくり説明してくれる親切な方でした。

午前中に終わるツアーなので、午後からは他のツアーに参加したり、ショッピングに行ったり、ビーチでのんびりしたりもできるので、1日を有意義に使えると思います。

友達みんなでワイワイ行くのにオススメのツアーでした。
