It was my first sunset cruising experience. I had previously been on a dinner cruise, and since my husband had never been on one, I was thinking of doing a dinner cruise again. However, we decided to try the sunset cruise instead, so we quickly made a reservation.
After checking in, we boarded the ship at the scheduled time. Aside from us, everyone else was foreign tourists, but everyone was enjoying themselves, toasting with Mai Tais as we set sail. The view of Waikiki Beach and the opposite side of Diamond Head from the sea was fantastic, as well as the mountains we saw from the activities we experienced during the day. Of course, the setting sun was beautiful.
The background music was from my husband's youth, which also became a wonderful memory.
初めてのサンセットクルージング。
以前ディナークルーズに乗ったことはあり、今回も主人が乗った事がなかったのでディナークルーズにしようと思っていました。
ですが、サンセットクルーズに乗ってみようという事で、早速申し込みました。
受付を済ませ時間になり乗船。
私達以外は外国の方ばかりでしたが、皆さんそれぞれ楽しみ、マイタイで乾杯しながら出港。
海側から見るワイキキビーチ、ダイヤモンドヘッドの反対側。そして昼間体験したアクティビティから見えた山など、すごく良かったです。
もちろん沈みゆく太陽、綺麗でした。
BGMも主人の青春時代の曲で、それも良い思い出になりました。

Great value, the three staff members were helpful in promptly refilling drinks when they saw empty cups. Also gave my wife and I unlimited mai tai's, probably for everyone else on the catamaran too. Ride was bumpy at times but we didn't get sea sick. Music choice was also perfect the entire way though. They take great pictures of you as well.

This was my first time boarding the "Catamaran" with my wife and our 25-year-old daughter. To put it mildly, it was "the best." Every time I walk along Waikiki Beach in Hawaii, which I have visited many times, I would see the "Mai Tai Catamaran" but would pass by without paying much attention. When a friend who is well-versed in Hawaii asked me, "Have you ever been on the Catamaran?" and I replied, "I know about it, but I haven't," he exclaimed, "What are you doing in Hawaii? You can't start your Hawaii experience without riding the Catamaran! It would be pointless to go to Hawaii!" I thought he was being a bit dramatic, but his enthusiasm piqued my interest, and I attempted to board once, but that year (2019, before the pandemic), it was fully booked every day. I resolved that the next time I went to Hawaii, I would definitely ride the Catamaran, and I made my reservation around the same time I booked my flight tickets.
On the day of my reservation in early August 2022, we went to the check-in area on the beach in front of the Sheraton at the designated time, confirmed our reservation with the voucher, and then walked barefoot along the shoreline to board the "Catamaran," being careful not to bring sand onto the boat. Two capable crew members skillfully prepared for departure, and as the boat smoothly pulled away from the beach and floated into the sea, an extraordinary feeling and excitement washed over me. I understood what my friend meant. The Catamaran proceeded slowly offshore, paying attention to the surfers near the beach, and after a while, it raised its sails and picked up speed. I was moved by the view of Waikiki and Diamond Head from the ocean, a perspective I had never seen before. The crew announced that drinks were ready, and we toasted as a family on board. The blue sea, blue sky, the scent of Hawaii, the sound of the ocean breeze, upbeat background music, and the sound of the sails fluttering all combined to create an indescribably exquisite moment that my vocabulary cannot capture.
After a while, we were delighted to see dolphins playing alongside the Catamaran. As the sun approached the horizon, I felt a twinge of regret as the boat drew closer to the beach. The cruise ended as we returned to Waikiki Beach around sunset. If I have the opportunity to go to Hawaii again, I will definitely board the Catamaran. I apologize for the writing style resembling that of an elementary school student.
今回初めて、私、妻、25歳の娘の家族3名で「カタマラン号」に乗船しました。控えめに申し上げても「最高」でした。幾度となく訪れているハワイ、ワイキキビーチを散歩するたび毎回のように見掛けていた「マイタイ・カタマラン号」、あまり気も留めずに船の前を素通りしていました。ハワイ通の友人から「カタマラン号に乗った事ある?」と尋ねられ「知っているけど無い」と答えると、「何しにハワイに行ってるの!カタマラン号に乗らないとハワイは始まらないよ!ハワイに行った意味がないよ!」と友人、まぁまぁ大袈裟な話と思っていましたが、やけに熱く語っていたのが気になり一度乗船を試みるのですが、その年(コロナ禍前の2019年)は連日予約完売で乗船出来ずでした。次回ハワイに行く事ができれば、絶対にカタマラン号に乗る!と決意し、今回は航空券の予約とほぼ同時期に予約をしました。
2022年8月上旬予約当日、集合時刻にシェラトン前のビーチにある受付に行き
バウチャーで予約確認、その後、砂浜に乗り上げた形で留っている「カタマラン号」へ裸足で波打ち際を歩き船に砂を載せないよう注意深く乗船します。2人の頼もしい操船スタッフが手際よく出航させるのですが、船が砂浜から「すーっ」と離れ船が完全に海に「ふわー」と浮いた瞬間から非日常的な感覚とワクワク感が襲ってきます。これがハワイ通の友人が言っていた事なのかと納得。カタマラ号はビーチ付近のサーファー達に気を配りながらゆっくりと沖合へ進み、しばらくすると帆を上げスピードアップ、ワイキキの街並みやダイヤモンドヘッドを今まで見ていた逆の目線、海からの景色に感動します。操船スタッフからドリンクが用意できていますとアナウンス、そして船上で家族で乾杯。青色の海、青色の空、ハワイの香り、潮風の音、アップテンポなBGM、帆がなびく音、それぞれが相まって私の語彙力では表現出来ない何とも言えない極上の時間です。
暫くするとイルカ達がカタマラン号と一緒に遊ぶ姿を見せてくれました。
太陽が水平線近づき、次第に船が沖合からビーチが近くになるのが残念に思えます。サンセット、日没と同時ぐらいにワイキキビーチへ戻りカタマラン号のクルーズは終わりとなります。次回またハワイに行く事が出来れば必ずカタマラン号に乗船します。
以上、小学生の作文の様な文章で申し訳ありません。

The experience was brilliant from start to finish. When we first arrived, we were worried there was no clear booth for arrival, but THEN like Maui himself on the ocean, the catamaran came out of the waves and docked right on the beach! The friendly crew checked us in, told us to grab some snacks if we wanted and then got us onboard.
They said if we wanted a fun, but wet, ride, we should sit on the net at the front. We did, and got SOAKED by waves and it was so fun!
We got to turtle canyon and were given high quality snorkels and instructions. There were other groups there, only one of them were slightly annoying but there’s plenty of turtles to go around!
We saw more than 15 turtles, ranging from babies to grown ups. They got so close but don’t forget- don’t be a turtle toucher!!! They were so visible and it was a once in a lifetime experience. We are still in Waikiki and honestly considering doing it again!
Do not book ANY other turtle snorkel experience in Waikiki other than this one!!!
5 stars and a huge tip

After three years, I participated in a sunset cruise on a catamaran in Hawaii. It was so much fun. Seeing Waikiki and Diamond Head from the sea, the sunset, and the sky turning pink afterward was breathtaking. There was a rainbow over Waikiki. We laughed out loud while getting splashed by the waves, and we even started singing together. It was a truly enjoyable time.
Since you might get wet, it's best to wear clothes that can get wet and keep your valuables in a waterproof bag. There was storage available, but there's a chance of getting splashed by the waves.
I definitely plan to participate again on my next trip to Hawaii.
3年ぶりのハワイで
カタマランでのサンセットクルーズに参加しました。
とにかく楽しかった。
海から見るワイキキやダイヤモンドヘッド、
サンセットとそのあとにピンクに染まる空。
ワイキキにかかる虹。
波しぶきを浴びて大笑いしたり、大合唱が始まったり、
とても楽しい時間でした。
濡れる可能性があるので参加には濡れていい服で、
貴重品は防水バッグに入れておくといいですね。
収納場所がありましたが波を受ける可能性もあるので。
次回のハワイでも絶対参加しようと思います。

The alcohol wasn’t just one big jug of Mai Tai or beers, they had an amazing selection and the best bartenders who made the excursion so special and memorable. I would definitely take this cruise again and again!

The meeting place was a bit unsettling without a large landmark (across from Prince Waikiki Hotel), but as soon as we boarded, we were greeted by the captain. The staff was friendly, which put us at ease. There were no other Japanese participants besides us; the group was filled with tourists from various countries, giving it a truly international feel.
The view of Waikiki Beach from the sea was fantastic, showcasing the familiar luxury hotels and the full panorama of Diamond Head. It was a lucky moment when a sea turtle popped its head up near the boat. We also had the opportunity to stop the boat and dive into the water to swim. The slowly setting sun and the changing colors of the sky over time were truly beautiful.
集合場所は大きな目印もなく少々不安でしたが(プリンスワイキキホテル斜め向かいのハーバー)、乗船してすぐに船長。スタッフがフレンドリーで安心しました。参加者は私たち以外に日本人はおらず各国の観光客で外国感満載。
海から眺めるワイキキビーチはおなじみの高級ホテル群、ダイヤモンドヘッドの全景が見れて最高でした。ボートのそばにウミガメが顔を出してくれたのもラッキーでした。途中ボートを停泊して、海にダイブして泳ぐことも抱きました。ゆっくり沈む夕日、時間とともに変化する空の色も本当にきれいでした。

I was happy to participate this time since my previous visit to Hawaii was canceled due to weather issues. Although visibility may vary depending on the weather, the day I participated was very sunny, and I was able to see the ocean floor beautifully.
You can see a wide variety of fish, from small ones to quite large ones.
I was also very satisfied to encounter sea turtles twice.
