The dolphin tour we initially planned was suddenly canceled three days before departure, so I quickly searched online and found this tour. There were similar sailing options, but since we were staying at Hilton Hawaiian Village, we decided on this tour. I felt reassured that VELTRA confirmed the reservation at the time of booking.
On the day of the tour, it rained in the morning... I thought it might get canceled, but by the afternoon, the rain cleared, and we departed from the beach as scheduled! Once we were out at sea, we set the sails and let the wind and waves guide us... At this point, the refreshing feeling was indescribable! The view from the sea of Waikiki and Diamond Head was also amazing. There was only one other family besides us participating, so we were able to take our time taking photos and videos on board. The taste of beer on the water was the best.
The captain and staff were very friendly, and they provided explanations in Japanese on board.
We thoroughly enjoyed the one-hour sailing. We didn't see any dolphins, but we were very satisfied. (o^-^o)
当初予定していたドルフィンツアーが出発3日前に突然の中止になり 急遽ネット検索し、このツアーにたどり着きました。同じ様なセーリングもあったのですが ヒルトンハワイアンビレッジに宿泊していたのでこのツアーに決めました。VELTRAは申し込と同時に予約確定か否かが分かるので安心しました。
当日は朝から雨・・これはcancelになるかと思いきや午後には雨も上り予定通りビーチから出発❗沖に出ると帆を張り風任せ 波任せ・・ここまでくると何とも言えない爽快感デス❗海から見るワイキキからダイヤモンドヘッド迄の景色も素晴らしかった。参加者は私達の他にファミリーが1組のみ・・船上ではゆったり写真や動画を撮る事が出来ました。海上でのビールの味も最高
キャプテンを始めstaffはとてもフレンドリー 船上では 日本語で説明してくれます。
1時間のセーリングを満喫しました。イルカは見られなかったけど大満足しました。(o^-^o)

I was a bit anxious because the explanation was only in English, and there were few Japanese participants, but I wanted to experience the sunset cruise on a catamaran that you can't enjoy on a large dinner cruise, so I joined! Along with the lively crew and other passengers, I enjoyed cocktails while taking in the beautiful sea! I was able to spend a wonderful time in Hawaii, admiring the luxurious views from blue to sunset and then to the night scenery! Actually, we were also visiting Waikiki for our son's wedding, and on that day, there was a newlywed couple from abroad on board as well, which added to the happy atmosphere and made it the best moment!

The sunset, which allows you to enjoy the changing colors of the sky, was very beautiful, and seeing Waikiki from the sea was refreshing. The sunset cruise offers both the daytime scenery and the sparkling night view. There was little rocking of the boat, so even I, who am sensitive to motion, was able to enjoy it comfortably. In addition to unlimited Mai Tais, there was also champagne available!
空の色の変化を楽しめるサンセットもとてもキレイでしたが、海から見るワイキキも新鮮でした。サンセットクルーズは昼間の景色とキラキラ夜景の両方が漫喫出来ます。船の揺れも少なく、船に弱い私も快適に楽しめました♪マイタイ飲み放題の他にもシャンパンもありましたよ♪

I boarded with my aunts who are nearly 80 years old. I was worried about whether it would be okay for seniors, so I hesitated to sign up, but there was no severe rocking, and it was a relaxed cruise. The view of Honolulu from the sea was refreshing, and the breeze felt nice. I'm glad I went, but I really wish we could have gone a bit further out where dolphins might be.

We had a really nice time. Saw some sea turtles and some fish. Unfortunately it was windy and a boat of scuba divers scared off the fish and turtles or should I say made it hard to keep up with them. The crew was completely awesome. The sail to the other side of Diamond Head was amazing. We had a really good time.

I couldn't see sea turtles on the tour, but I was very satisfied to see many here. If you can swim, please consider renting or bringing your own fins. It seems to be a diving spot, and if you can dive to about 5 to 6 meters, you can see a variety of colorful fish. The area near the surface is full of black fish, so if you're confident in your swimming, give it a try. The staff was friendly, which was great.
海亀を見るツアーで見れなかったのですが、こちらで、いっぱい見れて大満足です。泳げる方は、是非フィンをレンタルもしくは、持参して下さい。ダイビングスポットらしく、5〜6m潜れれば、色とりどりの魚が見れます。海面付近は黒い魚だらけなので、泳ぎに自信のある人はチャレンジしてみて下さい。スタッフもフレンドリーな感じで良かったです。

The submarine experience was nice. The inside of the sub was cool and comfortable. The only downside was that I was expecting to see the ocean floor teeming with fishes and corals which was not the case. Instead there were deliberately sunken ships and airplane ruins that served as artificial reefs or the ocean floor would have otherwise been bare. Didn't see any natural corals. But I guess it's not the fault of the tour though their ads were a bit overhyped and misleading with colourful fishes so you would tend to over expect. A fun and unique activity nevertheless for first timers!

I always wanted to check out the Turtle Canyon, and, on this particular trip, I was able to. My only complaint was that it was on the western edge of Waikiki Beach, which was somewhat inconvenient. In a perfect world, it would have been placed in the center of Waikiki's hotel row. I boarded the catamaran and was greeted by a very friendly and personable crew. Once on board, the staff gave us a safety briefing, then explained the protocol for snorkeling the area. Once we arrived at our destination, the captain dropped anchor and the group was off. It was not long before someone spotted some turtles. All of us watched in awe as we observed their underwater universe. We were in the water quite a while before the captain signaled us to come aboard. Then, we were treated to a magnificent sailing past Diamond Head and around Waikiki Beach. Between the snorkeling (an excellent exercise for me), the turtles and the sail, it was a perfect afternoon for me. I was back in time to go with my friend for evening entertainment. This is one of the top three activities you must do before you leave Hawaii. It is truly a magical day!

We went snorkeling as a family for the first time in Hawaii. Since the boat departs right in front of the hotel, you can easily enjoy it without having to go all the way to the North Shore. What surprised me was seeing a group of sea turtles swimming right in front of us. Even without snorkeling, the exhilarating feeling of sailing with the wind filling the sails was refreshing.
ハワイでは初めて家族でシュノーケリングしました。出船がホテルの目の前からなのでノースショアなどわざわざ行かなくてもお手軽に楽しめます。驚いたのは、ウミガメが目の前を群れなして泳ぐ姿が観れたこと。シュノーケリングしなくても帆に風をいっぱいに受けての疾走は爽快でした。

I booked three experiences this time, but this was the best one. I didn't expect to be so moved just by the beautiful sunset. The boat itself was filled with a happy atmosphere, and I'm glad I scheduled it for the last day of our trip. My one-year-old baby didn't quite understand, but my 65-year-old mother enjoyed it for 10 minutes. We just cruised while drinking unlimited alcohol from cups as the sun set. Everyone was moved and taking photos. There were no Japanese-speaking staff, only English, but we had a great time.

My wife and I participated together. Overall, we were satisfied because it was reasonably priced, including the all-you-can-drink option and the unique perspective of Diamond Head from the ocean side, which is not usually seen.
One point to note is the check-in line. A queue suddenly forms in front of a small chair on the sandy beach. Moreover, this chair, which serves as a marker, is quite hard to identify. We were distracted by the boat returning from the ocean and taking pictures, so by the time we noticed, we had no choice but to line up at the back. As expected, once we boarded the boat, we struggled to find a decent place to sit and ended up having to forcefully make space.
That said, the evening view from the venue was stunning and definitely worth seeing. Personally, I feel that participating with a larger group would be more fun and lively than just the two of us. Let's hope for luck in witnessing the sunset sinking into the "cloudless horizon" (laughs).
妻と二人で参加しました。
飲み放題であること、普段見られない角度(海側)からダイヤモンドヘッドを眺められること、を含め、金額的にもリーズナブルだったので全体的には満足でした。
注意点があるとすれば、チェックインの際に並ぶ場所。
砂浜にある小さな椅子の前に突然行列ができます。
しかも、この目印代わりの椅子がまぁ、判りにくいこと。
我々は沖から戻ってきた船に気を取られ写真を撮るなどしていたため、気づいた時には最後尾に並ぶしかありませんでした。
案の定、船に乗り込んでもまともに座れる場所が探せず、無理やりスペースを空けてもらう羽目になりました。
とは言え、会場から眺める夕方の景色は素晴らしく、一見の価値ありですね。
尚、あくまで個人的な感覚ですが、二人で参加するよりも大勢の仲間と乗る方がワイワイ騒げてきっと楽しめると思います。
「雲一つない水平線」に沈む夕陽が拝めるか、は運に期待しましょう(笑)。

I made a reservation with the purpose of watching the fireworks, but it turned out to be an even more wonderful cruising experience. Of course, the fireworks were beautiful, and we could leisurely enjoy them from the sea.
We cruised slowly for about two hours on the dark ocean, and the view of Waikiki across the water was dazzling. While listening to music and enjoying drinks, just watching the waves was moving.
We even promised each other as a family that we would come back again! I think it's enjoyable for couples, families, and friends alike.
