Waikiki
I was disappointed with the tour. I expected to see a lot of marine life. This was not worth the price that was charged. Pictures were also very expensive. No one purchased the pictures during my tour. You may want to reconsider the pricing.
The weather was clear, and I could see well into the ocean; it looked very beautiful.
天気も晴れていて海の中がよく見えて、とてもきれいに見えました。
Initially, I was scheduled to board on the second day of my stay, but unfortunately, the second and third days were booked for a private group, so I boarded two days before my return. I had checked the weather forecast for the latter half of my stay and found that the weather was not looking good, so it wasn't a cloudless sunset as predicted, but with some clouds, I was able to enjoy the changing colors of the clouds.
Most of the passengers were foreigners (I was also a foreigner in Hawaii!), primarily Americans, with only one other Japanese couple on board. Although Japanese was not spoken, I didn't feel inconvenienced during the approximately one-and-a-half-hour cruise while listening to Hawaiian music.
Since it was a catamaran, I expected less rocking, but unfortunately, the wind was strong and the waves were high, so it rocked quite a bit. My wife is not fond of boats, but she took motion sickness medication, so she was fine. The kids were thrilled.
I have also been on the Hilton's submarine, so there wasn't anything new for me to see from the boat looking at Waikiki, but those who are boarding for the first time will likely enjoy it.
Two drink tickets were distributed for alcohol, allowing for beer or champagne. Junk food and teriyaki chicken were served, but since this is a cocktail cruise, don't expect much in terms of food. If you get a good sunset, it will be fantastic!
当初は、滞在2日目に乗船予定でしたが、あいにく団体貸切に2日目、3日目がとられてしまい帰国2日前に乗船しました。天気予報で滞在後半、天気が芳しくないことを調べていたので、予報通り雲の無いサンセットではありませんでしたが、そこそこ雲があると雲の色の変化も楽しめます。
ほとんどが外人(私もHAWAIIでは外人!!)アメリカ人で日本人はもう1カップルのみでした。
日本語は通じませんが、Hawaiiannを聞きながら約1時間半のクルーズには不便を感じませんでした。
双胴船なので揺れが少ないはずでしたが、あいにく風が強く波も高かったので、結構揺れました。妻は船が苦手でしたが酔い止めb薬を飲んでいたので大丈夫でした。
子供は大喜びでした。
小生は、ヒルトンのサブマリンも乗船しているので、船から見るWAIKIKIに目新しさはありませんでしたが、初めて乗られる方はには喜ばれるでしょう。
アルコールは2杯までただのチケットが配られ、ビールやシャンパンが飲めます。ジャンクフードとチキンの照り焼き風が出ましたが、カクテルクルーズなので料理は期待しないでください。
良いサンセットにあたるとサイコーでしょう!!
It was my first experience with a submarine, and I was able to participate with great interest. My 4-year-old child seemed to enjoy it as well (although they got bored halfway through...).
It might be worth trying at least once.
However, I had reserved for the earliest submarine tour because it mentioned a Japanese guide, but in the end, it was an audio guide. Was there a mistake in the description, or was it my misunderstanding? If there had been a Japanese guide, it might have been even more enjoyable.
Also, there was no shuttle service, and we had to wait a good 30 to 40 minutes from the meeting time. They said they were waiting for another pickup bus, but I thought it would have been better to set the meeting time a bit later.
初めての潜水艦体験だったので、興味深く参加できました。
4歳の子供も楽しかったようです(途中から飽きてましたが・・)。
一度は行ってみてもいいかもしれません。
ですが、サブマリンツアーの一番早い時間が、日本語ガイドだと書いてあったので予約したのに、結果はオーディオガイドでした。
記載が間違っているのですか?それとも私の勘違いでしょうか?
日本語ガイドならもっと楽しかったかもしれません。
あと、送迎なしだったのですが、集合時間からたっぷり30~40分は待たされました。ピックアップのバスをもう一台待ってます、とのことでしたが、ならば集合時間をもう少し遅くしてもよいのではと思いました。
I definitely recommend it at least once.
The kids were thrilled!
一度はお勧めです。
子供は大喜び!
I participated in the tour that started at 3 PM on the day I arrived in Hawaii. There were more foreign tourists than Japanese, allowing me to experience a sense of being in a different country in Hawaii, which is usually filled with Japanese visitors.
We took a boat to reach the submarine waiting offshore, but many people experienced seasickness, so I recommend taking motion sickness medication if you're prone to it (the submarine itself was stable). There were many colorful fish on the ocean floor off Waikiki, and we also saw sharks. I was excited about the rare experience of riding in a submarine. The view of Diamond Head from offshore Waikiki was also beautiful.
ハワイに到着した日に15時からの回で参加しました。日本人観光客よりも外国の人が多く、日本人が多いハワイで異国気分を味わえました。
沖に待機している潜水艦までは船で行くのですが、船酔いされている方も多く、酔いやすい方は酔い止めをお勧めします(潜水艦は揺れは大丈夫でした)。ワイキキ沖の海底にもカラフルな魚がたくさんおり、その他サメなども見られました。潜水艦に乗るという滅多に出来ない体験に興奮しました。またワイキキ沖から見るダイヤモンドヘッドも素敵でした。
The Atlantis submarine is available in other regions as well, but I think Hawaii has a greater variety of marine life to encounter.
To board the submarine, you take a short cruise on a boat. From there, you transfer to another vessel and dive into the deep sea.
That day, I was satisfied to see a sea turtle swim right in front of me and a school of fish.
However, it was a bit disappointing that the return cruise took a little longer than expected.
潜水艦アトランティスって他の地域にもありますが、ハワイは他よりも出会える海の生き物たちが多いと思います。
潜水艦に乗るにあたっては、沖までちょっとした?クルーズ船に乗ります。
そこから海上で船を乗り換えて、深海へ潜っていきます。
その日はウミガメが目の前をよぎったり、魚の軍団を見れたり満足でした。
ただ、帰りのクルーズ船でやや寄ってしまったのが残念でした。
I had the rare opportunity to ride a submarine, which was a very valuable experience. The scenery underwater was mystical with the presence of fish. The view of Waikiki Beach and Diamond Head from the boat above the sea was also very beautiful. It was a very enjoyable tour.
普段なかなか乗ることのできない潜水艦に乗ることができて、とても貴重な体験をすることができました。
海の中の景色はお魚さんがいて、とても神秘的でした。
船にのって海の上から見るワイキキビーチやダイヤモンドヘッドもとても綺麗でした。とても楽しいツアーでした。
It good. However, we didn't really hear the history of the diamond head. Unless we just have to read the posters. The guy at the gate was screaming at everyone bec they have to pay for the entrance fee. If I didn't tell him i got the package deal from this webstie he would have double charged me. They need to come-up with another system collecting entrance fees.
It was an excellent experience! our tour guide was friendly and funny. too bad we didn't see any sharks
I participated in the afternoon on the day of arrival on a JAL flight that landed in the morning. We went from in front of the Hilton Hotel to near Diamond Head and came back, enjoying the view of the ocean and the pleasant sea breeze, which made me really feel like I was in Hawaii. My excitement was high from the very first day.
I've heard that surprisingly many people come to Hawaii and don't even touch the ocean because they're busy shopping. That's why I recommend experiencing it during your free time on the first day.
JAL便 午前着便で到着日の 午後に参加しました
ヒルトンホテル前から ダイヤモンドヘッド近くまで行き
戻ってきましたが 海からの眺めと 気持ち良い
海風で ハワイに来た実感が 湧き出てきて
初日から テンション高くなります
案外 ハワイに来ても 海に触れない人は 多いと聞きますショッピングに 忙しいのだそうです
だから 初日の 空いた時間に 体験するのがおすすめです
While searching for attractions that I could participate in during a short layover, I found this one. It was also helpful that I could make a reservation at the last minute.
At first, I wasn't sure where the meeting point was, but following the signs on the hotel property towards the beach, I found a stand that looked like it had promotional posters on it. When I asked, I learned that it was the information center. It was located between the hotel pool and the beach, in a spot where the dock was clearly visible, and the stand was similar to the towel rental stands.
Since I didn't know the location, I arrived almost an hour early, but they were able to move my reservation up because there was availability on the previous schedule. Thanks to that, I didn't waste any time.
At the dock, there is a designated photo spot, but I didn't need it. While I was taking a commemorative photo by myself, a staff member kindly offered to help me take pictures. I’m sorry I didn’t buy any photos!
We then moved from the dock to the boat offshore, where we enjoyed watching a submarine rise from the seabed. After boarding, the underwater sightseeing began. I could tell we were descending gradually by looking at the depth meter.
I listened to the Japanese guide on tape, but the guide was explaining in English while also making jokes to keep the atmosphere lively. The view from the windows was enchanting. I had trouble taking pictures with my compact camera due to insufficient light, so I recorded a video instead.
The views on the left and right sides of the submarine are different, but since they reverse on the way back, you can see roughly the same spots. It was a more accessible way to enjoy the seabed, comparable to scuba diving, without the hassle of snorkeling. There are two types of submarines, and you board the one you chose from the boat offshore. You can also see the other submarine's ascent and descent.
I participated alone, but I think it would be more enjoyable if you had someone to talk to.
トランジット途中の数時間滞在という短い時間で参加できるアトラクションを探していたところ、こちらを見つけました。
直前での申し込みも可能だったことも助かりました。
最初集合場所が良く分からなかったんですが、ホテル敷地内にある案内表示に従ってビーチ方面に進むと、宣伝ポスターを貼り付けたようなスタンドを見つけ、聞いてみるとそこが案内所でした。ホテルプールとビーチとの間のとこで、船着場の良く見えるところで、スタンドのつくりはタオル貸し出しのスタンドと同じでした。
場所が分からなかったので1時間近くも前についてしまったところ、1つ前のスケジュールに空きがあるから、と予約の便を繰り上げてくれました。おかげで時間を無駄にしなくてすみました。
船着場ではお決まりの写真撮影場所がありますが私は不要。
自分一人で記念撮影していたら、なんと係りの人が撮影を手伝ってくれました。写真買わなくてすみません^^;
船着場から沖合いの船へ移動。そこで海底から浮き上がってくる潜水艦を観賞。
そして乗り込んで海底観光スタート。少しずつ潜っていくのは潜水深度のメーターで分かりました。
日本語ガイドはテープを使って聞いてましたが、ガイドさんは英語で説明しつつジョークのようなことも言って艦内を盛り上げてました。
窓からの景色は幻想的でした。コンパクトカメラで撮影するには光量不足のせいかうまくいきませんでした。ムービーモードで撮影しました。
潜水館の左右の側で見れる景色が違いますが、行き帰りで逆になるので大体同じスポットを見ることは出来ます。
スノーケルよりもお手軽にスキューバ並みに海底を楽しむことが出来ました。潜水艦は2種類は2種類合って沖合いの船で自分の選択した方の船に乗ります。乗らない方の艦の浮上・潜水の様子を見ることも出来ました。
私は一人で参加したんですが、話をする相手が一緒にいた方がより楽しめると思います。
Since it was an 8:00 course, I had to wake up early...
If you're lucky, you might get to see sea turtles swimming!
And we did see them! My daughter and I were both so excited!
Additionally, on the way back, we encountered a pod of dolphins!
Seeing the dolphins jumping was like a dream!
It felt a bit pricey, but I was satisfied.
8:00のコースだったので早起きをしなくてはいけなかったのですが・・・。
運が良ければ、ウミガメが泳いでいるところに会えます!
とのこと。
なんと会えました!lこれには私も娘も大興奮!
それに加え、帰りのボートではイルカの群れに遭遇!
ジャンプしているイルカが見れるなんて!!
夢のようでした。
ちょっと、お高い気がしますが満足しました。
We enjoyed a submarine tour with our family of four, which was a first for my elderly mother and something we can't experience in Japan.
We took the earliest tour at 8:00 AM. There were only 14 participants on the 64-seat submarine.
According to our guide, when there are so few participants, everyone can sit on one side, allowing us to see areas that are usually not visible from one side. This made for a unique and enjoyable tour. It felt like a lucky coincidence.
We were able to see turtles, sharks, and many fish. Unlike an aquarium, I definitely recommend this for children.
The boat ride to and from the submarine was also not crowded, so we had time to leisurely browse souvenirs, which led to some great memories as I ended up buying quite a few things.
On the return boat, we even had the chance to take commemorative photos with the captain.
高齢の母親が初ハワイということもあり、
日本では経験できない潜水艦ツアーを家族4名で楽しみました。
時間は、朝いちばんの8:00の回です。
64名乗りの潜水艦に、参加者がわずか14名でした。
ガイドさんの話では、
このように参加者の人数が少ないときには、
全員を片側に座ってもらい、
通常は左右どちらか片方した見れないところを
潜水艦に回ってもらい2度見れるというおいしいいツアーになりますと言ってました。
偶然とは言え、得した感じで良かったです。
亀やサメ、多くのさかなを見ることもできました。
水族館とも違い、子どもさんには、絶対にお薦めだと思います。
潜水艦までの往復の船も空いていて、
ゆっくりお土産を見ることも出来たので、
ついついいろいろ買ってしまったのも、いまはいい思い出です。
戻りの船上では、キャプテンとの記念撮影もできました。
It was interesting. The water hardly swayed, and I was able to enjoy watching the fish leisurely. It seems the children had fun too.
面白かったです。水中はほとんど揺れず、ゆったりと、魚の鑑賞を堪能できました。子供も楽しかったようです。
The sea turtles and fish were beautiful!
It's an activity you can enjoy because of the beautiful ocean in Hawaii.
It's definitely worth participating at least once!
ウミガメ、魚など綺麗でしたよ!
ハワイのきれいな海だからできるアクティビティーですね。
一度は参加してみてる価値ありです!
It was my first time participating with my daughter in 20 years. We chose to join during the Japanese explanation time, so I don't understand English. It seems my daughter was satisfied as well. The sea turtles and fish that can be seen in the beautiful ocean are a must-see!
20年ぶりの娘との参加でした。
日本語解説の時間を選んで参加したので、英語がわからない
娘も満足できたみたいです。
綺麗な海の中で見られるウミガメ、魚は必見です!
We participated in an activity that could be enjoyed by three generations, including my parents and children, totaling eight people. We joined the first Japanese-guided tour of the day. Although our guide was not Japanese, they entertained us with fluent language skills. We were lucky enough to see sea turtles swimming, which was wonderful. My 65-year-old grandfather was also very excited to see the turtles. Since we had to move by boat before and after boarding the submarine, it's essential to bring motion sickness medication. Don't worry, there are etiquette bags available in case you feel unwell on the submarine.
3世代で楽しめるアクティビティはないかと、両親、子供を含め8人で参加しました。
朝一番の日本語ガイドのツアーに参加。
ガイドさんは日本人ではないのですが、流暢な言葉使いで楽しませてくれます。私たちはラッキーなことに海ガメが泳いでいるところをみることが出来て良かったです。
65歳のおじいちゃんもカメの泳ぐ姿を見て大興奮でした。
潜水艦に乗り込む前後は船で移動となるので、酔い止めの薬は必携。万一潜水艦で気分が悪くなってもエチケット袋はあるのでご安心を。
I participated at my son's request. I was worried about seasickness, but it was not a problem at all. There weren't many fish to see, but the kids were surprised to see the sunken airplane. It can be a bit cold inside the ship, so it might be a good idea to bring a jacket. Also, when getting on and off the submarine, you need to use a ladder for a few meters. It might be better to avoid wearing a mini skirt or a maxi skirt.
息子の希望で参加しました。船酔いが心配でしたが全く問題ありませんでした。見られる魚はそれ程多くはありませんでしたが、子供たちは沈んだ飛行機などを見てビックリしてました。艦内は少し寒いので上着を持って行った方がいいかも。あと、せんすいかに乗り込む時と出る時に数メートルはしごを使います。ミニスカートもしくはマキシ丈スカートはやめた方がいいかな。
There is a novelty in being able to ride a submarine. However, it feels more like peering into an aquarium tank. I was happy to see two sea turtles, but at Okinawa's Churaumi Aquarium, you can see sea turtles up close.
In conclusion, if you want to see marine life, you should go to an aquarium. Only those who want to experience riding a submarine should participate in this tour. Otherwise, I think marine life enthusiasts will be disappointed.
潜水艦に乗れるという物珍しさはあります。しかし、感覚としては水族館の水槽を覗いているといった感じです。海亀を2匹も見れたのは嬉しかったですが、沖縄の美ら海水族館の方がもっと間近に海亀を見れます。
結論としては、海の生き物を見たければ水族館に行きましょう。一度潜水艦に乗ってみたい人だけがこのツアーに参加しましょう。でないと、海の生き物好きはガッカリすると思います。
The sub was great, the staff were great. Bookings.com suck. They reserved us on a Japanese only tour. We could have changed but it would have been the next day. Took the verbal portion away. we had headphones that would explain it in english but not so good with the main staff speaking to the group in Japanese. I have a 5 and 8 year old so it made it more difficult for them. Make sure you confirm what the booked you for !!
We participated as a family.
We were the only Japanese people, and everyone else was foreign.
So... the captain's explanations were all in English... Unfortunately, I couldn't catch what was being explained, but I just went with the atmosphere. (laughs)
The captain (handsome!!) and the other crew members talked to us a lot (in English, lol), and I even got to sit in the cockpit and had a special Mai Tai made by the captain. We had a really fun time!
As for the sunset... unfortunately, clouds covered the sky just when it was supposed to be perfect, so we couldn't see the beautiful orange colors...
However, cruising while feeling the wind and looking at Waikiki was truly the best!!
家族で参加しました。
日本人は私たちだけで他の方は全員外国の方でした。
なので・・・キャプテンの説明も全て英語。。。残念ながら何を説明されているのか聞き取れなかったのですが、まぁそこは雰囲気で。笑
キャプテン(イケメン!!)や他のクルーの方がいろいろと話しかけてくださり(英語でw)、操縦席?にも座らせてもらったり、キャプテン特製マイタイを作ってもらったり、とっても楽しい時間を過ごせました!
肝心のサンセットですが・・・ちょうど良い感じのときに雲がかかってしまいきれいなオレンジを見ることができませんでした・・・。
が、風をうけながらワイキキを眺めながらのクルージング、本当に最高でした!!
We participated as a couple. On this day, besides us, there was an Italian family and two American couples.
One of the crew members, who could speak Japanese, talked to us. They had lived in Japan and knew a lot about the area where we live, so we had a fun conversation mixing English and Japanese, which is a nice memory.
Unfortunately, it was a cloudy day, and we could only see a little bit of the sunset through the gaps. It was a bit disappointing, but seeing Waikiki and Diamond Head from the ocean was lovely.
Since it was a small boat, it rocked quite a bit. We didn't take any motion sickness medication, but I was concerned about getting seasick and didn't feel like eating or drinking much. However, the foreigners were drinking and eating a lot. If you're worried, it might be a good idea to take motion sickness medication.
Also, while the wind feels nice, it might be a bit cold for women. I think it would be good to have something to cover up with.
夫婦で参加しました。
この日は私達以外に、イタリア人家族と二組のアメリカ人夫婦が参加されていました。
クルーで、日本語を話せる方が話しかけてくれたのですが、
日本に住まれていたとかで(私達が住んでいる所も詳しくて)
英語日本語混ぜながら、楽しく会話出来たのも良い思い出です。
あいにくの曇り空でサンセットは隙間から少し見えたくらい。
ちょっと残念でしたが、沖からみるワイキキ、ダイヤモンドヘッドも素敵でした~
小型の船なので、結構揺れます。
私達は酔い止め飲まなかったのですが、船酔いが気になって
あまり飲食する気になれず…。
外国の方は、ガンガンお酒飲んで食べまくってましたけど。
不安な方は、酔い止め飲んでおかれた方がよいかも。
あと、風が気持ち良いですが、女性には少し寒いかも。
羽織るもの、あるとよいと思います。
I wasn't expecting much, but it turned out to be quite an interesting experience. The pier was bright white and stood out beautifully against the blue sea. From here, we took a boat out to board the submarine, and that was quite enjoyable. Perhaps because of the strong winds, the boat was rocking so much that I could hardly stand without holding on to something. You can also see the submarine rising and sinking from the boat! The view from the submarine was decent, but it was fun as an attraction! My elderly grandmother also enjoyed it.
あまり期待していなかったのですが、なかなか面白い体験でした。
桟橋が真っ白で青い海に映えて、とてもきれいでした。ここから潜水艦に乗り込むために船で沖に出るのですが、これが結構楽しめました。風が強かったせいか、ゆれがものすごくて何かにつかまっていないと立っていられないほどでした。船からは潜水艦が浮き出る様子や沈んでいく様子も見ることができます!
潜水艦からの景色はそこそこですが、アトラクションとしては楽しかったです!高齢の祖母も喜んでくれました。
Truly enjoyed the boat ride out and the associated views. The sub was great. Clear water, tons of fish, turtles and two sharks...would do this again in a heartbeat.
After several trips to Oahu and never having the opportunity to hike Makapu'u since I don't rent a car and the nearest bus stop is over a mile from the trailhead, I was happy to see Kaimana Tours offering transportation from Waikiki hotels to the trailhead.
As the only person taking the tour that day, I was put on a shuttle with a group headed to Hanauma Bay. Pickup from my hotel was prompt, the driver was both professional and entertaining, and pickup from the trailhead was efficient (all I had to do was call the office when I finished the hike, and the driver was there within 10-15 mins)!
As for the hike itself, it is actually a walk on a paved, slightly inclined one mile-ish road. The sights were beautiful all the way to the top, and people of all activity levels should be able to handle this without any issues.
All-in-all, Kaimana Tours delivered an A+++ experience, and I hope to partake in their other tour offerings the next time I'm in Oahu!
The day I participated, it was very windy, so we traveled by boat to the area with the submarine. If you get seasick, be sure to take medication! Once we dove, there was no movement at all, and it was super exciting and thrilling. Luckily, we were able to see turtles and sharks too! The scenery was amazing! The pier where the boat departs and the views during the trip were also fantastic, especially since the weather was great.
参加した日は風が強かったので・・・潜水艦のある沖合までは船での移動。船に酔う方は薬を必ず!
潜ってしまうと全く揺れずめっちゃワクワク・ドキドキでした。運もよく、カメやサメも見ることが出来たので!
また景色がすごくいい!船が出港する桟橋も・・・移動中も・・・天気が良かったせいもあり最高でした。
The blue sky, white clouds, and green sea! Boarding the submarine waiting off the coast of Waikiki, we dove down to a depth of 30 meters. The view from the large window, experienced only by those who have gone, is unforgettable! The sight of beautiful fish and swimming sea turtles, along with fish that make sunken ships their home, was explained perfectly by the Japanese guide. It was truly wonderful! (#^.^#)
青い空に白い雲、そして緑の海!
ワイキキの沖で待つ潜水艦に乗り込み、水深30mまで潜り、一人でひとつの大きな窓からの眺めは、行ったものしかわからない!綺麗な魚やウミガメの泳ぐ姿、沈んだ船を住処にする魚たち、日本語ガイドで、説明もバッチリいや~良かったです(#^.^#)
Looking out at the sea from the submarine feels quite similar to an aquarium, but there's a sense of freedom with the fish swimming in various directions, and the excitement of not knowing what creatures you might see. I think it's definitely enjoyable. When I participated, I was able to see sharks and the sight of sea turtles swimming (though they usually tend to stay still). I do wish the travel time and the time for boarding and disembarking from the submarine were a bit shorter, but there's not much that can be done about that. I think it's best to join the experience with a relaxed mindset, enjoying the cruising as well.
潜水艦の窓から海を見た感じは水族館とあまり変わらない気もしますが、魚の泳ぐ方向が一定でなく自由な感じだったり、どんな生き物が見られるかわからないワクワク感があったり、十分楽しめると思います。
私が参加したときは、サメが見られたり、ウミガメが泳ぐ姿が見られたり(普段はじっとしていることが多いそうですが)しました。
あとはもう少し移動時間や潜水艦への乗降時間が短いといいな、と思いますが、こればっかりは仕方ないですね。クルージングも楽しむつもりでのんびり参加すればいいと思います。
Since I didn't plan to go into the ocean on this trip, I joined this tour hoping to see underwater life. First, we took a boat out to sea and switched to a submarine, and it was great to enjoy the beautiful view of Waikiki from the boat.
Once we switched to the submarine and dove into the ocean, I initially saw hardly any fish, just a few shadows in the distance, and I thought it would be like this the whole time. However, as we approached the reef, I was able to see a much larger school of fish than I had imagined, which made me very satisfied! It was much clearer to see with my own eyes than in photos. I think this activity is perfect for those who can't dive or snorkel.
I recommend the larger submarine that accommodates 64 people, as it has bigger windows. On the afternoon trip, the Japanese audio guide was provided through headsets, and I still enjoyed it a lot. However, listening to the English announcements, I noticed they provided various information tailored to the situation, so I believe the tour with a Japanese guide would be even more enjoyable.
今回の旅行では海に入る予定がなかったので、海の中が見れればいいとの思いでこのツアーに参加しました。
まずは船で沖に出て潜水艦に乗り換えるのですが、その船上からワイキキの美しい眺めを堪能できて良かったです。
潜水艦に乗り換えて海に潜ってしばらくは殆ど魚の影すら見えず、たまに遠くに魚影が見える程度でずっとこんな調子かなと思ったら、漁礁に近づくにつれて想像以上に大群の魚を見ることができて大満足でした!写真で見るより肉眼ではもっとはっきり見えました。ダイビングやシュノーケリングができない人にはもってこいのアクティビティだと思います。
潜水艦は64人乗りの窓が大きい方がおススメです。
午後の便で日本語はヘッドセットでの音声案内でしたが、それでも十分楽しめました。でも英語アナウンスを聞いていると、その場に合わせて臨機応変に色々な情報を提供していたので、やっぱり日本語ガイドの便の方がより楽しめると思います。
