From a stable catamaran, you can enjoy the view of Waikiki Beach and feel the sunset... Whether it's your first time in Hawaii or you're a repeat visitor, this is a time I highly recommend.
This is my third time participating. Although there isn't a Japanese guide, the fun is definitely felt. This time, I was with a group of Japanese tourists, so the atmosphere was a bit different, but thanks to the weather and the calm sea, we were able to fully enjoy the beautiful sunset.
I haven't participated in other catamaran tours, so I can't make comparisons, but I can recommend this tour for the peace of mind it offers while enjoying a blissful sunset! If you're unsure, definitely give it a try at least once! 😊
安定したカタマラン船で海の上から、ワイキキビーチを眺め、サンセットを感じる・・
ハワイが初めてでも、リピーターでも、ぜひおすすめしたい時間です。
今回は3度目の参加になります。
日本語ガイドはないけれど、その楽しさは十分感じられます。
今回は日本人団体さんと一緒だったので、盛り上がりは少し違いましたが、
天候、おだやかな海のおかげで、きれいなサンセットを堪能できました。
他のカタマランツアーに参加したことがないので、比較はできないですが、
安心してサンセットの至福な時間を楽しめる点でおすすめできるツアーです!
迷ったら、是非、一度は参加してみてください(^^)v

I didn't see any whales, but the view of Waikiki Beach and Diamond Head from the ocean was very beautiful! I accepted that it was just a matter of luck, but I still enjoyed the cruising experience. It was really bumpy, so I definitely recommend bringing motion sickness medication from Japan.
くじらは見られませんでしたが、海の上から見るワイキキビーチとダイヤモンドヘッドはとても綺麗でした!
こればっかりは運なので仕方がない、と諦めましたがクルージングだけでも充分楽しめました。すごく揺れたので酔い止めは日本から持って行ったほうが絶対にいいと思います。

Everyone except for my husband and me were foreigners. If you don't set the audio guide to Japanese, you won't understand the explanations at all. However, since the boat rocks a lot on the way, it's better to have motion sickness medication. It was thrilling to transfer from the boat to the submarine. Moving in the middle of the ocean to the submarine was amazing. When a sea turtle swam close to the window, I was so impressed! It was great to encounter various fish as well.
私達夫婦以外全て外国人。説明も日本語オーディオガイドにセットしないと説明が全く分からず、しかし、行きの船がとても揺れるので酔い止めの薬は、あった方が良い。船から潜水艇を乗り移る時などは感動。海のど真ん中でから、潜水艇へと移動。ウミガメが、窓の近くに泳いで来てくれた時は、すご〜い❗️と感動。

If you go to Hawaii, you should definitely take a boat trip at least once. The view of Waikiki and Diamond Head from the sea is stunning, and this time, I was lucky enough to see whales as well. There are morning, afternoon, and evening courses available; I went in the morning both times, but next time I want to try the sunset cruise. The sea was calm, and I didn't experience any seasickness.
ハワイに行ったら必ず1度は乗船すべきです。海からのワイキキ、ダイヤモンドヘッドの景色、今回はラッキーなことに、クジラも見ることができました。午前、午後、夕方のコースがありますが、2度とも午前時間帯でしたが、次はサンセットクルーズも体験してみたいです。海はおだやかで船酔いすることもありませんでした。

I participated at the end of the year. I took motion sickness medication, but the boat was very slow, and it was tough until we returned to land. I couldn't see any whales, but later I heard that it's quite rare to see them around Oahu. Even if you do see them, they are said to be very far away. I think it would be better to participate in Maui or similar locations.
年末に参加しました。
酔い止めを飲んで参加しましたが、船がとてもゆっくりで陸に戻るまで辛かったです。
クジラも見る事ができなかったのですが、後で聞くとオアフで見られるのはかなり希なようですね。
見る事ができてもとても遠いとの事でした。

The guys that operate the boat were easy going, friendly and informative with a splash of humour.
The trip delivers as promised. They sail you to turtle canyon, you snorkel and enjoy a lovely sailing journey back.
It doesn’t have frills like food or drink ( you can take your own goodies, no problem), but that’s not what this trip is about. It caters perfectly to the people that put simply just want to catch a ride to the perfect spot to see turtles.
I would absolutely use them again. They are professional and good value for money. I recommend them A+++.

There was only one point of interest, which felt a bit lonely, but the staff were all friendly. Although it's not directly related to the tour, the meeting place is a homeless hub, so the atmosphere isn't very good, and it's something to be cautious about.

It was a great way to start the day. Super convenient if you're staying at a hotel on Kalakaua Ave. Just walk to the Duke Statue on Waikiki Beach, check-in and board. No driving to the harbor and dealing with parking. The crew were all very professional and super helpful to nervous, first time snorkelers. They rent all that you need but they don't have fins so if you want/need fins bring your own.
We stopped on the way out to observe some dolphins so if you're lucky its not just turtles you'll see. Definitely worth it and we will go again the next time we visit.

The breeze was pleasant, and it was a very enjoyable cruise! The captain spotted a whale and chased after it several times. From a distance, we could see the spray and the tail!
At one point, the boat stopped, and those who wanted to swim went into the water. We didn't swim because we thought it might get cold after getting out of the sea.
Indeed, during this time of year, it gets chilly after sunset. I was glad I brought a long-sleeved jacket.
Also, the night view of Waikiki was very beautiful!
I would love to join again if I have the opportunity.
風が気持ち良く、とても楽しいクルーズでした!キャプテンがくじらを発見し、何度も追いかけてくれました。遠くからですが、しぶきと尾ひれが見えました!

I was wondering if I would be able to see anything in December, but I boarded the boat with a little hope. The cheerful and polite staff welcomed us warmly. Despite the strong sea breeze, they called out to each group of passengers and took photos one after another. I got to see the whale I had been longing for and the spouting water. I am grateful to the staff who anchored the boat in the sea and waited patiently. The vast blue ocean stretched out as far as the eye could see. I hope to ride this boat again someday for whale watching. By then, I’m sure I’ll be able to meet the whales…

Overall, we enjoyed the trip. Staff was great! However, the snorkel spot was crowded with lots of other groups. It felt like you were bumping into people the whole time. We saw some turtles, but there wasn't much else to see. Also, the parking instructions are unclear. All it said was they validate in the garage, so I parked in the obvious giant garage. But they don't validate in that one (the Hale Koa). They only validate in the Hilton Garage which is harder to find. I hope they aren't unclear on purpose...that cost an extra $39!

There were few Japanese people, and both the captain and the co-captain spoke only English. The captain only spoke with those he wanted to talk to and did not engage with us Japanese guests at all. The female co-captain was very friendly and spoke to everyone. The sailing offered the best views!
At the end, I intended to give a tip, but I wasn't prepared to give it to both of them, so it ended up being less than expected. The captain made a sarcastic remark about it in a loud voice. I apologize for not being prepared, as I didn't know that a tip for both was necessary, but it left me feeling very disappointed after such a wonderful sailing experience. If it weren't for that captain, I would want to participate again. I highly recommend this activity, but I think it's best to prepare tips for both before boarding.

With anticipation, I set sail, feeling the pleasant breeze and gazing at the coastline of Waikiki Beach. However, as time went by, my feelings became complicated with disappointment and sadness about not being able to see much. But when the boat finally reached the point where dolphins gather, everyone started taking pictures, and somehow that helped distract me a little.
As for my thoughts, I felt that we needed to go a bit further out to see more. Also, since the boat rocked quite a bit, I thought medication would be necessary.
期待を持ちながら、出航し気持ちいい風を感じながら、ワイキキビーチの海岸を眺め、海を見つめていましたが、時間がどんどん経つにつれ、段々見れないことに気持ちが、落ち込むことと、残念に思うことに複雑になってきましたが、最後イルカの集まるポイント!?に船が着くとみんな写真をパシャパシャと、何となくそれで少し、気がまぎれたようなかんじになりました!?
感想としては、もう少し沖に出ないと、見れるものも見れないのではと思った。

The tour was conducted only in English, but even for us, who hardly speak any English, we managed just fine. It's not guaranteed that you'll definitely see whales, but they extended the time by about an hour beyond the scheduled time, and we were able to see them. I was really happy that they were so flexible.
Even though I had seen Waikiki from the ocean on TV, the actual scenery was amazing. Even if we hadn't seen any whales, it was a tour that left us completely satisfied! If I come to Hawaii during the whale watching season again, I will definitely want to join this tour.

The boat's brand spanking new and seriously comfy, and the drinks? Tasty and on tap! Props to the crew for keeping the glasses full and snapping awesome pics. Heads up, though, the nets mean splashes if you're cruising to Diamond Head. I got totally soaked, but it was part of the fun!
Sunset views? 10/10. Oh, and don't forget to wear sandals or flip-flops since you have to take off your shoes and walk through water to get on board the boat :)
Hella chill vibe, perfect sunset, and a splashy adventure, and I totally recommend it!

It might be the same everywhere, but I was forced to wear a buoy around my waist and was bombarded with English instructions. Even when I wanted to get out because it was cold, they wouldn’t let anyone leave until everyone was in the water. If I tried to get out from another spot, I was redirected. It was a terrible place. It would be better if there were Japanese staff present.
