Captain and crew made this trip very enjoyable. The ship was top notch and fun to sail on.
Swimming with the turtles was a blast and the sailing around Waikiki afterwards made for a super fun trip. Definitely will be back!

From the moment we got on the boat, and until we made our way back onto the beach, we had an amazing time on this booze cruise. The views are perfect, the drinks were strong and tasty, and the seating was surprisingly comfy. Def need to give a shout out to the awesome captain and crew who were on it with taking pictures and offering drinks. Can't wait to go back!

We were a little apprehensive about getting a boat from the sandy beach, but it was all beautifully managed and we enjoyed a really good trip and a lovely sunset.
We were able to sit still and enjoy the drink and nibbles we had brought with us, while others enjoyed moving around onto the net to enjoy being really near the water. Even a little child under one year was there!
I would recommend this to anyone. A few steps through water and up into the boat led to a wonderful trip.

On the last day of our family trip to Hawaii, we decided to participate in this activity to create some memories. I had been on a catamaran a few times in Hawaii (with another company), but it was the first time for my husband and our 2-year-old daughter.
There aren't many activities available for children, so the fact that our daughter could join us for free was a deciding factor.
The meeting point was inside the Outrigger Reef. It was beautifully renovated, and the Holokai counter was easy to find. We got a little lost with the map provided, but the hotel staff kindly helped us.
From there, we walked to the boarding area near Halekulani.
Unfortunately, it was cloudy on the day of our trip, but just as the sun was setting, a gap in the clouds appeared, creating a truly wonderful memory.
Here are a few concerns that led to a four-star rating:
【Concerns】
- When we boarded, we were the only Japanese among about 30 people. It was fun to experience the international atmosphere, but the crew members did not speak Japanese, so those who are concerned about this should take note.
- The boat allows drinking. We chose not to drink, but the first drink is included at no extra charge! The international guests were drinking a lot and having a great time. Families with children or those who are not comfortable with drinking should be cautious.
- My husband and daughter got seasick. Depending on the weather, the waves were quite high and the boat rocked a bit. If you're prone to motion sickness, taking medication is a must! Also, please be aware that the ride lasts about an hour and a half.
Overall, it was a very enjoyable experience, and we could feel the fun atmosphere from everyone on board. I think it would be good to compare prices as catamaran rates vary by company.
ハワイへの家族旅行最終日に、思い出になればと思い参加を決めました。私はハワイで何度かカタマラン(別の会社主催の方)に乗ったことがありましたが、夫と2歳の娘は初めてでした。
娘が参加できるアクティビティがなかなかないので、子どもは料金がかからず一緒に楽しめることも決め手になりました。
集合場所はアウトリガーリーフ内。綺麗にリニューアルされており、ホロカイのカウンターもわかりやすかったです。案内の地図で少し迷いましたが、ホテルの方が丁寧に教えてくれました。
そこからハレクラニ横まで徒歩で移動して乗船します。
当日はあいにく曇りでしたが、日が沈む瞬間は雲の間ができ、すごく素敵な思い出となりました。
以下、少し懸念される点がありましたので星4つになります。
【懸念点】
・私達が乗船した際は、30人ほどのうち日本人は私達だけでした。海外の雰囲気を味わえて楽しかったですが、乗務員さんも日本語は話せない方なので気にする方はぜひ。
・飲酒可能な船です。私たちはお酒がのめないので選びませんでしたが、一杯目は追加料金なくお酒を楽しめます!海外の皆さんはたくさん飲んで大変盛り上がっていました。
子連れやお酒のノリが苦手な方は、注意が必要かもしれません。
・夫、娘は船酔いしてしまいました。天候にもよるかと思いますが、沖合は割と波も高く揺れました。苦手な方は酔い止め必須です!また、1時間半ほど乗るのでお気をつけください。
全体として非常に楽しく、海外の雰囲気を一緒に乗船されたみなさんからも感じられて、楽しいひとときとなりました!カタマラン船は料金も各社違うのでぜひ参考に比較いただくとよいかと思います。

Since I didn't want to go snorkeling, I thought about taking a boat out to sea, so I searched in the morning and boarded a boat around 2 PM that day. I didn't get to see a honu, but I did see a pod of dolphins! They swam very close to the side of the boat, and I was really happy! You can see Waikiki from the ocean side, and there's a chance to meet dolphins, so I would like to use this service again.
シュノーケルなどをしない為、船に乗って海に出たいなーと思い、午前中に探してその日の14時ごろの船に乗りました。ホヌには会えなかったけど、イルカの群れを見れました!船の横とても近くに泳いでくれて、とっても嬉しかったです!ワイキキを海側から見れるし、イルカに会えるチャンスもあるし、また利用したいです。

We departed from the beach in front of the Sheraton Hotel, just a stone's throw away from the hotel, about 80 minutes before sunset. The catamaran can accommodate around 20 to 30 people. We turned around after passing the beautifully illuminated Diamond Head at sunset. Cruising while sipping a Mai Tai and enjoying the sunset is an absolutely wonderful experience!

We had the best time with our group of 12 on the sunset catamaran cruise. Meet up at the hotel was easy to find. Boarding the boat was quick and efficient the ride out was a little choppy but we laughed our way thru the bumps a couple people were nauseous so if you get nauseous easily take something before.. The drinks were great and the bar service was too! They had a variety of drinks including local beer. The views were amazing. We took great pictures and enjoyed the sunset.

The captain and crew were engaging, fun and so very very kind. As a heavy traveler I don’t often put myself out there unless I KNOW I can do all of the activity. I was worried about being able to get out of the water after snorkeling. They never once made me feel like I was a pain, uncomfortable, or “less than” that is not a typical experience, so not only did they get my business for the snorkeling trip, I also went on their sunset cruise for the next two days. I will shout their praises to the rooftops!

Overview:
The meeting point is the Holocai Catamaran booth located on the beach side of the Outrigger Reef Waikiki Beach Resort on the first floor of the hotel. If you're unsure, you can enter the hotel from the Steak Shack side and walk towards the abc store to find it.
There, you check in. There are about 12 participants. Since the boat will be moored on the sandy beach, you'll need to take off your sandals to board. About four strong men will be your guides. They look impressive, like old-time sailors from a movie. As I listened to the explanations (in English), we soon moved to an area where we could see honu (sea turtles). (I didn't feel much rocking.) Most participants were foreigners, with only a few Japanese. You can borrow snorkeling sets and life jackets. Wearing the jacket is mandatory, but whether to inflate it is up to personal judgment. Beginners should inflate it, while experienced snorkelers who want to dive can keep it deflated. The spots where honu are found are crowded with various tour groups, so we shared the space and slowly approached the honu together. We observed the honu as they surfaced for air, keeping a respectful distance. The guide provided friendly explanations and directed us on where to go. However, in the latter half, things became less organized, and people started to act freely, so it's good to occasionally look up to see where the guide is or swim towards the direction of someone calling out "Holokai!" When there was a honu underwater, I borrowed an underwater camera from another guest (I used a GoPro), and the guide dove down to take close-up shots. It was a wonderful memory. After observing for a while, we returned to the boat and had free time sailing around Waikiki's waters. Soft drinks were free, while alcohol was available for purchase (ID is only required when buying; if you don't plan to buy, you don't need an ID). Participants freely took photos and relaxed on the net at the front of the boat... The guide was always cheerful and even spoke a little Japanese when he realized we were from Japan... We spent a leisurely time on our way back...
Impression:
Of course, it depends on the weather and waves that day, but in my case, I hardly felt any rocking and was very comfortable. It's not particularly Japanese-friendly, and the vibe and way of speaking are completely native, but they don't say anything too difficult, and if you ask, they will teach you very friendly. If the weather is nice, you might get sunburned, so I recommend bringing long sleeves and sunglasses. If you have an underwater camera, I definitely recommend bringing it. After getting off the boat, there is a Steak Shack right in front, so I had lunch there.
Since the atmosphere is quite international, those who are not comfortable with that should consider it, but it was a very pleasant experience that made me feel like I was in a tropical paradise. There was no pressure to do anything in particular, and everyone enjoyed their travels freely, creating a relaxed atmosphere.
概要:
集合場所はアウトリガー リーフ ワイキキビーチリゾートのビーチ側のホテル内1FにあるHolocai Catamaranのブース。よくわからない場合はステーキシャック側からホテル内に入ってabc storeあたりまで行くとあります。
そこで受付。参加人数は12名ほど。砂浜にボートがつくのでサンダルを脱いで乗船。屈強な男たち4名ほどがガイドをしてくれる。かっこいい。映画の中の昔の船乗りみたいにかっこいい。なんとなく説明(英語)を聞いているといつの間にかホヌ(ウミガメ)がいる辺りに移動。(あまり揺れは感じませんでいた)参加者の多くは外国人。日本人はわずか。借りれるのはシュノーケリングセットと救命ジャケット。ジャケットは着用マストだがふくらませるかどうかは個人判断。初心者なら膨らませ、経験者で潜水したい場合は空気を入れなければ良い。ホヌがいるスポットは様々はツアーの客が群がっているので、譲り合ってゆっくりみんなでホヌに近づく。息継ぎのために水面まで上がってくるホヌを一定の距離を保ちながら観察。ガイドがフレンドリーに説明をしてくれたりどっちに行くかを案内してくれる。ただ後半は段々と統率がなくなってきて自由に行動し始めるので、たまには顔を上げてガイドがどこにいるのか、またはホロカイ!と声を上げているほうへ泳いで迷子にならないように。水下にホヌがいたときは、水中カメラを持っている客から(私はgopro)借りて、ガイドが下まで潜って間近で撮影してくれた。とてもいい思い出。ある程度観察したら船に戻り、残りの時間をワイキキの海をセーリングしながら自由時間。ソフトドリングは無料。アルコールは有料(購入時だけIDが必要。その予定なければIDは要らない)参加者各々が自由に写真を撮ったり船先端にある網?の上で寛いだり…ガイドは常に明るく接してくれたり、日本から来たとわかると少し覚えている日本語を話してくれたり…かなりゆったりと時間を過ごしながら帰路へ…
感想:
もちろんその日の天気や波に寄りますが、私の場合、揺れはほとんど気にならず、とても快適に過ごせました。日本語フレンドリーではありませんし、完全にネイティブのノリや喋り方ですが、そこまで難しいことは言いませんししませんし、聞けばとてもフレンドリーに教えてくれます。天気がいい場合、日焼けするので長袖やサングラスを持ってくと良いと思います。水中カメラはあれば是非とも持っていくことをおすすめします。
船から降りた後は目の前にステークシャックがあるので、そのままお昼に食べました。
もちろん海外なノリが多いため、苦手な方は考慮されたほうが良いですが、とても気分の良い、南国にきたなーーーーと思える体験でした。特に何を強要されるわけでもなく、各々が自由に旅行を謳歌している、そんな雰囲気でした。

I think there are several catamarans, but the 1.5-hour ride was just right. The reception was easy to find as it was located on the 1st floor of the Outrigger Reef Hotel. The staff maintained a good distance, which I appreciated. The boat also had a restroom. I was worried about seasickness, but it was a clear day with calm waves, so I didn't get splashed and enjoyed a pleasant breeze during the fun cruising. Although I didn't see any sea turtles or dolphins, I was very satisfied with the views of Honolulu and Diamond Head from the sea. I definitely recommend experiencing this at least once.
カタマランはいくつかあるかと思うのですが、乗船時間が1時間半なのが丁度良かったです。受付もアウトリガーリーフホテル1Fにお店が入っていて分かりやすかったです。スタッフの方も良い距離感で、有り難かったです。船にはお手洗いもありました。船酔いが心配でしたが、快晴で波も静かな日だったので、海水が掛かることもなく、気持ち良い風を感じて楽しいクルージングでした。ホヌやイルカは見れませんでしたが、海からのホノルルやダイヤモンドヘッドを見れて大満足です。是非一度体験して欲しいです。

The weather was perfect! Unfortunately, we didn't get to see any dolphins, but it was still very enjoyable. My husband and I wore sneakers, which was a mistake. It's better to wear flip-flops or something similar. Also, if you go to the front of the boat, be prepared to get wet from the splashes; wearing something that can get wet makes it much more fun. My daughter and I were in regular clothes, but we enjoyed the thrill and the stunning views while getting completely soaked!
