I returned home yesterday! I had tried surfing once in Japan a long time ago, but I was worried about whether I could ride properly since it had been quite a while. However, I was able to catch a wave safely on my second try! My friend who came with me was a beginner, but they managed to stand up and seemed to get hooked right away. It was a two-hour session, so by the end, my shoulders were really sore, but I had a lot of fun.
Since there were only four of us, it felt almost like a private lesson, and the instructor taught us in such detail that I was able to ride most of the waves.
I was told, "You're already a surf girl!" and I got a bit carried away with that, so I'm simply thinking about starting surfing seriously in Japan as well. The instructor was really entertaining, and the two hours flew by!!!
昨日、帰って来ました!
サーフィンは日本で一度やったことがありましたが、
かなり昔のことだったのでちゃんと乗れるか不安でした。
けど、2回目の波で無事乗ることができました!
一緒にいった友達は初めてだったのですが、
無事立て、早くもはまってしまったようです。
2時間だったので、最後のほうは肩がぱんぱんになってしまったけど
とても楽しくできました。
人数も4人だけだったので、ほぼ個人と変わらないのでは?と思ってしまうくらい
細かく教えてくれたので、ほとんどの波に乗れることができました。
君はもうサーフガールだよ!と言われたり、ちょっと調子に乗っちゃうことを
言われたので、本格的に日本でも始めようかと単純ながら思ってます。
先生もとても面白くて、あっという間の2時間でした!!!

This time we went to Hawaii for our honeymoon. It was my second time in Hawaii and my second time parasailing. I had so much fun that I wanted to enjoy it with my partner, so I decided to participate.
What we tried this time was the deluxe option. It said it was equivalent to the height of a 40-story building, which made me a little nervous, but since we ascended slowly, it wasn't scary at all. Before I knew it, we were at the top. The view of the ocean from up there was incredibly beautiful. Plus, we were able to see the scenery side by side, which made it even more special to share that moment together. We also took a commemorative photo at the top.
It became a wonderful memory.
今回は新婚旅行へハワイへ。
私はハワイ2度目でパラセイルも2度目。とても楽しかったのでぜひカレと一緒に楽しみたいと思い参加しました。
今回私たちが挑戦したのはデラックス。「ビルの高さ40階相当」と書いてあったのでちょっとドキドキだったのですが、ゆっくり上昇するのでまったく怖くありませんでした。気がついたらてっぺんにいる、みたいな。てっぺんから見下ろす海は最高にキレイでした。おまけに横並びで景色を見る事ができたので、一緒に感動できた事が何よりもよかったと思います。そしててっぺんで二人で記念撮影。
とってもいい思い出になりました。

This was my first time surfing, and I was worried about whether I could stand up after just a brief explanation on the beach, but I managed to stand up on my second try. The instructor helped me catch the waves at the right moment. I think everyone in the group was able to stand on their boards. Although I thought there would be a large number of participants in the group lesson, there were only six of us, and with three instructors, it felt almost like a semi-private lesson, which was more than enough. The price was quite high, and I thought the tip was included, so I was a bit flustered when the guide mentioned at the end, "If you'd like, you can give a tip to the instructor," as I hadn’t prepared anything. I found that most surfing lessons were around the same price when I researched different tours, but I heard there are some cheaper options if you look into local information more thoroughly. Also, although it was a plan that included transportation, I felt a bit anxious because the shuttle bus took a while to arrive, but it seems like it’s better not to worry too much about it.
サーフィンは初めてで、ビーチで簡単な説明を受けただけで立てるか心配でしたが、2回目で立つことができました。先生がいい波のタイミングで後押ししてくださいます。参加していた方みなさんボードに立てていたと思います。グループレッスンで、大人数かと思いきや6人で先生が3人だったのでセミプライベートじゃなくても十分でした。料金が結構していてチップが含まれていると思っていたので、終わりにガイドの方が、「よかったら先生にチップを」と言われて用意していなかったことに少しあせりました。どのツアーで調べても大体サーフィンレッスンは同じくらいの金額でしたが、現地情報をよく調べたらもう少し安いツアーがあるそうです。あと送迎付のプランでしたが、時間の感覚がゆるいのか送迎バスがなかなかこないことに少し不安になりましたが、あまり気にしないほうがいいみたいです。

I challenged myself to surfing, which my husband was eager to try. Since it mentioned that beginners were welcome, we participated as two beginners. The instructions were also provided in Japanese, which made it easy to understand.
I was able to stand up on my first try right away. My husband took a bit longer to grasp the technique. By the end of the lesson, we were both able to stand up side by side. The two-hour lesson flew by and was simply enjoyable.
However, there were only a few photos of my husband surfing, which was disappointing for him. I think it was because the photo-taking time was shorter than the lesson. He also regrets not standing up earlier. Nevertheless, he was very satisfied and said it was a lot of fun, and he intends to try again.
主人熱望のサーフィンに挑戦しました。初心者でもいいとあったので、初心者2人で参加しました。日本語でも説明してもらえるし、わかりやすかったです。
私は、いきなり1度目で立ち上がる事ができました。主人は、しばらくコツをつかむまで時間がかかりました。レッスン終盤には、2人で平行して立ち上がれました。2時間のレッスンは、あっという間で楽しいの一言でした。
ただ、主人が期待していた撮影写真に は主人のサーフィン姿が数枚しか写っていませんでした。恐らく、撮影時間がレッスンより短時間の為だと思います。主人も、もっと早い時間で立ち上がっていればと残念がっています。でも、とても楽しかったと満足していて、また挑戦するつもりです。

I participated with my sixth-grade daughter. This was my second time, but it was her first. She was nervous until she took off, but after that, she was overjoyed. If you're going to participate, I recommend the Extreme, where you can fly high. If the weather is nice, you can enjoy a wonderful view. I've attached a photo from the sky, so please take a look! The true beauty can't be conveyed in the photo, so definitely give it a try.

Actually, it said to wear a swimsuit, but since we were just flying in the air, I thought we wouldn't get wet. So, I only changed my bottom and went for it. The staff were nice guys, and I wanted to take a photo with them, but since they couldn't speak English, I sadly gave up. The explanations were clear in Japanese here and there. The first couple took off, and I thought they went pretty high up, then the boat slowed down and they descended slowly. Splash into the sea!!! Whoa, I didn't hear about that!
They went back up, and it was our turn next. However, since we were with a child, we gently splashed down. Other couples were soaked up to their heads. My mother, who was with us, said, "You're flying much longer than those doing parasailing next to us." I see, it was the right choice to pick this. They took photos for $15, but they handed them to us on film, which surprised me a bit. It became a very fun memory.
実は、水着着用と書いてあったが、空を飛ぶだけだしぬれないよなー。と思い、下だけ着替えて望みました。スタッフの方はナイスガイで一緒に写真をとりたかったが英語ができないので泣く泣くやめました。説明もところどころ日本語でわかりやすかったです。最初のカップルが飛んで行きました。かなり上まで上がったと思ったら、ボートの速度を落としてゆっくり落下。海にどぼん!!!えーーーーきいてないよー
また上昇し、終わりました。次は自分たちの番。しかし子供と一緒だったので、優しくどぼんでした。ほかのカップルも頭までびしょぬれでした。同乗した母は、「隣でパラセイルをしているところよりずっと長く飛んでいるよ」なるほど。ここを選んで正解だった。15ドルで写真を撮ってくれたが、フイルムで渡されたのでちょっとびっくりした。とても楽しい思い出になりました。

We participated in the 10:00 session on August 15th with our family of four (two children). The pickup arrived almost on time, and the shuttle with the blue submarine pattern, as listed on the Atlantis website, was there. Perhaps because it was a Japanese group, the staff member in a sailor-like uniform spoke fluent Japanese. After handing over the voucher, we headed to the Hilton pier. After a group photo (one photo for $20), we boarded the shuttle boat. It was quite rocky, and some people seemed to get seasick, but our family was all energetic, enjoying the view of the sea from the second deck when a staff member took our picture.
Since there were many participants, three submarines were waiting offshore. First, those with yellow tickets transferred to the submarine. Our red tickets were for the second submarine, which was fully booked with 48 seats. The guide was very good at Japanese and explained everything while incorporating jokes. We saw sea turtles and spent 40 minutes peering through the round windows at many fish without getting bored. Especially since we were the last to transfer from the shuttle to the submarine, we got to sit in the front seat right behind the control room, allowing us to see the cockpit, and the guide took pictures of us inside the submarine. It was a very enjoyable 40 minutes.
Our family was completely satisfied!! Thank you, Alan-chan!!!
8月15日10:00の回に家族4人(子供2人)で参加しました。
ピックアップはほぼ時間通りに、アトランティスのHPにも載っている青いサブマリンの模様のシャトルが到着。日本人の回だったためか、アトランティスのセーラーのような制服を着たスタッフさんは日本語ペラペラ。バウチャーを渡して、いざヒルトンの桟橋へ。グループ毎の記念撮影(1枚$20です)の後、シャトルボートに乗船。結構揺れるので酔っている人もいらした様ですが、我が家はみんな元気に2階のデッキで海を眺めていると、スタッフのお兄さんが写真を撮ってくださいました。
参加者が多かったので、沖には3隻のサブマリンがスタンバイ。まず、黄色チケットの方からサブマリンに横付けして乗り換えです。我が家の赤チケットは2隻目、48席満席でした。ガイドのおじさんは日本語がお上手で、冗談も取り入れながら、説明してくださいました。海がめも見れたし、たくさんの魚達に40分間飽きることなく丸い窓をのぞきこんでいました。特に、シャトルからサブマリンへの乗換えが一番最後だったので、操縦席のすぐ後ろの1番前の席に座れたので、操縦席も見れたし、ガイドの方に艦内で写真を撮ってもらったりもして、とても楽しい40分間でした。
家族一同、大満足!!アランちゃん、ありがとう!!!

Since I was in Hawaii, I thought I should try some water sports, so I participated. I actually wanted to go on a banana boat, but choosing parasailing turned out to be a great decision. Our family of four, including my husband, our third grader, and our kindergartner, tried it for the first time. On the day of the activity, there were three foreign couples, making a total of ten people on the boat. We enjoyed a bit of boat sailing before heading out to sea. I wanted to fly at the front so that my younger child wouldn't say they didn't want to go, but unfortunately, we ended up on the last flight. However, those worries quickly faded away. In fact, watching others fly got everyone excited. In the end, the two adults flew side by side while the two kids were positioned in front of us, and our family of four became like birds. From the sky, we had a panoramic view of the Waikiki hotels and Diamond Head, chatting about which hotel we were staying at and whether Hanauma Bay, where we went yesterday, was over there. There was no sense of fear at all. We didn't get wet during takeoff or landing, making it a tour that even a five-year-old can participate in comfortably. I highly recommend it. Next time I go to Hawaii, I definitely want to experience a more advanced flight.
せっかくハワイにきたのだから何かマリンスポーツをと思い参加。ほんとはバナナボートがやりたかったのですが、パラセイリングを選んで大正解でした。夫婦と小3と年中の兄弟家族4人で初挑戦。当日は外国人カップル3組と計10人で乗船。沖に出るまでもちょっとしたボートセイリングが楽しめました。下の子がやりたくないと言わないようにトップで飛びたかったのですが、不幸にもラストフライト。でもそんな心配はどこへやら。逆に他の人が飛んでいるのを見て気分も最高潮。結局夫婦2人が横並び子供2人が私たちの前に重なる形で家族4人で鳥になりました。空からワイキキのホテル群、ダイヤモンドヘッドが一望でき、あれが泊まっているホテルだねとか、昨日行ったハナウマベイはあのあたりかななど、お話する余裕もあり、恐怖感などまったくありませんでした。飛び立つときも着地の時も全く水にはぬれず5歳児でも十分参加できるツアーでかなりおすすめです。是非今度ハワイに行った際はもっと高度なフライトを体験したいです。

On August 15th, my family of five experienced this together. It was the first time for our three children, but everyone was extremely satisfied with the sky swimming experience. Since there were five of us, I thought someone would have to be alone, but surprisingly, I (the mother) was able to ride with my 15-year-old and 9-year-old children.
Both the sky and the sea were beautiful, and the view of Waikiki was great, leading to lively conversations and a lot of fun. The staff even took photos for us, and we received the film right away. I'm looking forward to developing the pictures.

Our family took our first submarine trip together. The kids, who had never seen the ocean floor before, were so excited! Our guide was Japanese and provided clear explanations, so I highly recommend it. I read in a review that if you sit in the back of the submarine, you can get a seat in the very front, so we did just that. We were able to sit right behind the cockpit and had a great view through the large front window. According to the kids, they also saw 14 sea turtles!

I participated with my mother. There weren't any other people over 60 like my mother, and she was worried until we took off, but once we were in the air, it felt even better than we expected! There was no turbulence, and we could see far into the distance, which made my mother happy. There were no other Japanese participants, and the staff were locals, but they tried their best to communicate with us in broken Japanese and even checked on my mother, who felt a bit seasick on the way back. We were at the lowest height, but it still felt quite high. It was very interesting. They take photos for a fee, which is a bit pricey at $15, but they took a lot of pictures, so I was satisfied. They gave us the film, so we were able to develop it the same day and show it to everyone.

I had heard rumors about it, but the boat ride out to sea is quite bumpy, so it's better not to eat right before. There was an American woman who looked like she was in a "salted greens" state. I think this ride might be a bit hard for children under elementary school age. However, the view from offshore Waikiki is amazing, so I definitely encourage you to be in good shape and give it a try. Bringing your own camera or video for filming is not allowed (or rather, it's difficult due to the rocking), but if you ask, they will film one roll for $15 and give it to you at the end. This will be a nice keepsake!
噂には聞いていましたが、沖に出るまでのボートの揺れが激しいので、直前に物を食べないほうが良いですヨ。アメリカ人のお姉さんで、「青菜に塩」状態のひとがいました。この揺れは小学生以下のお子さんには少々ハードだと思います。でも、ワイキキの沖から眺める景色は最高なので、ぜひ体調を万全にしてチャレンジして頂きたいと思います。持ち込んだカメラやビデオでの撮影は不可(というか、揺れのために困難)ですが、お願いしておくと、15ドルでフィルム1本分を撮影して最後に渡してくれます。これは記念になりますね!

This year, it seemed like there were more windy days than usual in Hawaii, but fortunately, on the day of the event, it was calm from early morning. I participated with my family of five (myself, my wife, our 8-year-old and 3-year-old children, and my mother) while rubbing our sleepy eyes. Only my wife had experience with parasailing, so I was a bit nervous about what to expect at first, but the staff's kind assistance and humor eased our nerves, and before we knew it, it was our turn to soar into the sky. The view of Honolulu and Diamond Head from high above the ocean was stunning and left a strong impression on me. We were also able to have photos taken while parasailing, which we purchased as a keepsake. My mother, who is 63 this year, was particularly happy, saying, "This became a wonderful memory, my first and last." However, she mentioned that her shoulder hurt the next day, as it seemed she had gripped the parasailing rope tightly with all her strength. I also hope that when the kids grow up, we can participate in a higher altitude experience rather than the standard one.
今年はハワイはいつもより風の強い日が多いような気がしましたが、参加当日は幸いにも早朝から穏やかで眠い目をこすりながらファミリー5人(私、妻、子供8歳、3歳、母)で参加しました。パラセールに参加した経験があるのは妻だけでしたので初めはどんなことになるだろうか緊張をしていましたが、スタッフの方の親切な対応とユーモアで和み自分達の順番まであっという間になり風を切って大空へ舞い上がりました。海上高くから見たホノルルの町並みとダイアモンドヘッドの眺めは素晴らしく印象に強く残りました。また、パラセイルをしている写真を撮ってもらえるので記念に購入をしました。特に母は今年63歳であり「最初で最期のいい思い出になった」と喜んでいました。しかし、次の日に肩が痛いということであり緊張してパラソロのロープを渾身の力で握り締めていたようです。また、子供達が大きくなったらスタンダードではなくもっと上空高くあがれる方に参加したいと思います。

We experienced parasailing for the first time as a family of four, with a standard course of about 150 meters, which was more than enough for beginners. My wife and our two children (ages 6 and 9) loved it; it was thrilling, refreshing, and offered a fantastic view of Waikiki from above. I highly recommend this tour. The kids were so excited, saying they wanted to do it again and would definitely participate next time! Seeing their joy made me promise the whole family that we would join again. In our case, we were picked up around 10:30, took turns boarding the boat, and each group experienced about 15 minutes. Our family went up together into the bright blue sky, and we were dropped off at the hotel around 12:30.
I definitely encourage you to give it a try!

The instructor allows us to try multiple times, so if you have motivation and concentration, everyone will be able to stand on the surfboard. Surfing is a full-body workout, and I really felt the effects of my usual lack of exercise, as I got very tired in the second half. When I got too tired to paddle, the instructor would pull me to the wave point, so it was okay even if I was exhausted.
The price feels a bit high, but considering it's Honolulu, it's about what you'd expect.
I got lost in Honolulu because the directions to the meeting place written on the voucher were incorrect, and I ended up being about 15 minutes late. I realized the importance of not relying too much on the voucher and checking the meeting place on a map.
先生は何度もtryさせてくれるので、やる気と集中力があれば、皆サーフボードの上に立てるようになるでしょう。サーフィンは体全部を使う運動だったので、日ごろの運動不足がたたって、後半すごく疲れてしまいました。疲れてパドリング(手で漕いでの移動)できなくなると、先生が波のポイントまで引っ張って行ってくれるので疲れても大丈夫です。
ちょっと値段は高い気がしますが、ホノルル値段と思えば、まあこんなもんでしょう。
バウチャーに書いてあった集合場所への行き方が間違っていたので、ホノルルで迷子になって、15分程度集合時間に遅れてしまいました。バウチャーを過信せず、地図で集合場所を確認する必要があることを痛感しました。

I boarded a 48-passenger submarine. I took the blue shuttle from the hotel to the ferry dock in front of Hilton Hawaiian Village. At the dock, we took a group photo (which is later sold for $20). Once on the ferry, we arrived at the diving point off Waikiki, where the submarine surfaced with white bubbles.
Holding onto the handrails tightly, I boarded the submarine. As I took my seat and peered through the round window, I was greeted by a large school of jackfish. The pamphlet mentioned that there would be an English guide, but perhaps because there were many Japanese guests, we had a Japanese guide instead. As we descended, colorful fish swam around the reef in abundance. At the shipwreck point, we spotted a sea turtle. To top it off, we encountered a group from a diving tour. It felt just like being in a dragon palace. Time flew by in an instant. On the return shuttle, since we could choose our destination, I got off at Ala Moana Shopping Center to do some shopping. It was a very satisfying day.
48人乗りの潜水艦に乗りました。
ホテルからブルーの送迎シャトルに乗り込み、ヒルトン・ハワイアン・ビレッジ前の連絡船桟橋へ。桟橋でグループごとの記念撮影(後で$20で売ってる)。連絡船に乗りワイキキ沖の潜水ポイントにつくと、白い泡と共に潜水艦が浮上してくる。
手すりにしっかりと捕まりながら乗船。席に着き丸い窓から海中を覗くと鰺の大群に出迎えられる。パンフでは、英語ガイドの時間帯だったけど、日本人が多いためか日本語ガイドだ。潜航していくと魚礁の周りには色鮮やかな魚たちがこれでもかというほど泳いでる。沈船のポイントでは、ウミガメ登場。おまけにダイビングツアーのご一行とも遭遇。まるで竜宮城気分。あっという間に時が過ぎてしまった。帰りのシャトルでは、目的地が選べたのでアラモアナ・ショッピングセンターで降りてお買い物。大満足の1日です。

It was amazing! We decided to go for the extreme ride with the mindset of going higher. I wouldn't recommend it for those with a fear of heights, but if you're okay with it, the extreme option is definitely the way to go! They took us up so high that we were at the same level or even above the top of Diamond Head. It was just the best. But when I looked down, the boats looked like tiny dots. I was a bit scared, but I'm glad I did it. I really felt like a bird, and I think it's very romantic for couples.
The boat ride was also fun, and the staff took lots of pictures, so it became a great memory. It's close to Waikiki, so I highly recommend it!
最高でした! どうせなら高く行こうというノリでエキストリームライドで。 高度恐怖症の方にはお勧めできませんが、全然大丈夫な方は絶対エキストリームがいいです! どこまで行くのってくらい飛ばしてくれました。 ダイアモンドヘッドの頂上と目の高さが一緒かそれより上に行った時は、も~最高。 でも下を見たらボートが豆粒の大きさ。 チョッとビビッたけど、やって良かったです。 本当に鳥になった気分で、カップルにはとてもロマンチックでいいと思いますよ~。

I made a reservation for the 9 AM tour and boarded a dedicated trolley at the bus stop in front of the hotel to head to the dock at Hilton Hawaiian Village. Once on the shuttle boat to the submarine, it was quite rocky, possibly due to the waves. After about 10 minutes, we arrived at the offshore submarine docking point, and passengers were divided among three submarines. Since we couldn't board each submarine directly, those boarding the third submarine had to wait nearly 30 minutes after leaving the port. On the way back, it was the reverse; passengers from the first submarine had to stay on the shuttle boat until the other two submarines surfaced and picked up their passengers, so it took longer than expected. Additionally, the shuttle boat swayed much more once we were offshore compared to when we were in the harbor, so those prone to seasickness should definitely take motion sickness medication. While I've mentioned some downsides, the experience after boarding the submarine and diving was absolutely amazing. The world visible through the windows was unlike anything I had ever seen, and even I, who usually hardly takes photos, found myself continuously pressing the shutter. Furthermore, the guide on my submarine provided explanations in Japanese, filled with jokes and lessons about the ocean, making the time fly by. While there is a risk of seasickness, I believe the rewards far outweigh it. I highly recommend it!!
朝9時の回を予約し、ホテル前のバス停で専用トロリーに乗り込みヒルトンハワイアンビレッジの船着き場へ向かいました。潜水艦へのシャトルボートに乗り込むと波があるせいか結構揺れました。10分ほどで沖合の潜水艦停泊ポイントに到着し、乗客は3隻の潜水艦に分かれて乗り込むのですが、それぞれの潜水艦に横付けしないと乗り込めないため、3隻めの潜水艦に乗る人は港を出てから30分近くかかってします。帰りはその逆で1隻めの潜水艦の乗客は残り2隻が浮上してそれらの乗客をピックアップするまでシャトルボートに乗っていなければならないので、思ったよりは時間がかかります。またシャトルボートは沖合に出たら港にいるときと比べ物にならないくらいに揺れるので船酔いしやすい人は酔い止め薬が必須でしょう。と、マイナス面ばかり書きましたが、潜水艦に乗り込んで潜行してからはすばらしい体験の連続です。窓から見える世界はこれまでに見たことのないもので、普段ほとんど写真を撮らない私ですらひっきりなしにシャッターを押してしまうほどでした。また、私の乗った潜水艦はガイドさんが日本語でいろいろと説明してくれて、ジョークあり海についてのお勉強ありで、とにかくあっという間に時間が過ぎました。船酔いというリスクはありますが、それを補って余りあるリターンがあると思います。絶対おすすめです!!

I participated in the Atlantis Premium Submarine Tour. This tour is different from scuba diving, as you can enjoy a diving experience safely and easily. You take a boat to the submarine that is anchored offshore, but it can be a bit rocky on the way, so those who are prone to motion sickness might want to take some medication beforehand. It's really great for families and couples!
アトランティスプレミアムサブマリンツアーに参加しました。
このツアーはスキューバーダイビングと異なり、安全に気軽に潜水ツアーを楽しめます。
沖に停泊している潜水艦までは船で行くのですが、そこに行くまでは揺れるため、弱い人は酔い止めを飲んでいった方がよさそうです。
ファミリーやカップルには本当によいですよ~!

We opted for a submarine tour since our parents couldn't dive. We were able to see many beautiful fish, which was very soothing. However, just watching and the fact that there were many of the same fish left us with the impression that it wouldn't hold our attention for a long time.
ダイビングができない親たちのために、潜水艦ツアーにしました。きれいな魚たちを沢山みることができて癒されました。でも、見ているだけなことと、同じ魚が多いということで、長い時間はもたないな、という印象です。

I participated with my boyfriend. I was a complete beginner, but he was experienced, so we borrowed a regular longboard (since the waves were small, a shortboard wouldn’t work) and he was riding the waves freely. Some people mentioned the photos, but they put all the pictures from everyone who took the lesson at the same time onto one CD-R for $25, so I thought it wasn't too expensive for the two of us. Especially since there aren't many opportunities to get photos of riding the waves, I was satisfied with how beautifully they were taken with a telephoto lens. However, it seems that the coach was aiming to capture the moment when he pushed the board to ride the wave, so my boyfriend didn’t appear in many of the photos, which was a bit disappointing for him. If you participate in a similar situation, I recommend asking in advance to make sure you get photographed!
彼氏と二人で参加しました。私はまったくの初心者でしたが、彼は経験者なので普通のロングボード(波が小さくショートボードでは乗れないとのこと)を貸してもらって、自由に波に乗っていました。写真について書き込みされている方もいましたが、同じ時間にレッスンを受けた全員分を1枚のCD-Rにいれてくれて25ドルなので、二人で1枚と思えばそんなに高くはないと思いました。特に、波に乗っている写真はなかなか撮れる機会がないので、望遠レンズできれいにとってもらえて満足です。ただ、写真はコーチがボードを押して波に乗せる瞬間を狙ってとっているようです。なので、彼はほとんど写真に写してもらえず残念だったみたいです。同じような状況で参加されるときは、事前に写真に写してね、と頼んでみてはいかがでしょうか?

Since I was in Hawaii, I thought I would try surfing. I didn't really know much about boards, so I wasn't expecting to stand up right away, but I managed to do it early on. I got a strange desire and thought, "I might get hooked on this!" I believe that the beginning is crucial for anything, so I felt that it would be good to grasp the basics and the feeling in a setting like this to level up. The staff members were kind, friendly, and worked hard, which made me feel at ease. It was fun, and the time flew by, but it was a very fulfilling two hours.
せっかくハワイにいるのだがらサーフィンを体験してみようと思いました。ボード関連は全く良くわからなかったので、すぐに立てることは期待していなかったのですが、最初のほうですぐに立てました。変な欲が出てしまい、これはハマルかも☆と思いました。何事も最初が肝心だと思うので、こういう場で基本というか感覚をつかんでレベルアップしていったら良いような気がしました。スタッフの方々は優しくフレンドリーで、一生懸命なので、安心できます。楽しくてあっという間に時間が過ぎましたが、結構内容の濃い2時間です。

I participated in parasailing this time with my 5-year-old child. When we were up in the sky, it felt wonderful and was the best experience, but... the boat ride out to the ocean was really bumpy, and I got seasick. If you're prone to motion sickness, it might be a good idea to take medication beforehand.
今回参加したパラセイリング、5歳の子供と一緒にやりました。空に上がっているときは、とても気持ちよくて最高でしたが・・・沖まで出るボートの揺れがすごくて
酔ってしまいました。酔いやすい人は、薬を前もって飲んでおいた方がいいかも。

We participated together. It was our first time surfing, and I was filled with anxiety, but I was able to ride the waves from the very first try. The instructor encouraged us by saying, "Paddle, paddle, stand up!!" which helped me stand up smoothly.
The photo CD-ROM was a bit pricey at $25, so many people didn't purchase it. I thought it would be nice if they offered a free commemorative photo, even just one.
I definitely recommend everyone to experience surfing in the waters of Hawaii!☆
二人で参加しました。初めてのサーフィンで、不安でいっぱいでしたが、一度目から波に乗れました。インストラクターの方が、「漕いで、漕いで、立って!!」と掛け声をかけてくれたので、すんなり立つことができました。
写真CD−ROMが$25と少々高めなので、購入していない方が多かったです。一枚でも良いので、記念写真を無料でプレゼントしてくれるサービスがあればいいと思いました。
ぜひ、皆さんもハワイの海でサーフィンを体験してみてください☆

On March 26, I participated with my family of six. The pickup was in front of the hotel, and our guide was very interesting, which made the trip to the boarding area enjoyable. The shuttle boat did sway a bit, but I had taken motion sickness medication after reading the reviews here, so I was fine.
The weather in Hawaii had been bad lately, and it was raining heavily on the day of our participation. However, the staff on the boat said, "Today is actually a good day for visibility," which raised our expectations as we boarded. Once we submerged in the ocean, we didn't feel any swaying at all. As we visited several artificial reefs created by Atlantis, we saw many rare fish, and both the children and adults were glued to the windows. It was also nice that the pamphlet we received at the beginning had simple explanations of those fish. The submarine had commentary in Japanese, with lively descriptions like, "We saw a stingray that is rarely seen," and "Look, look, a turtle is sleeping," which made it very enjoyable.
Since it was raining quite a bit, our family did not go to Ala Moana and were taken directly back to the hotel. The bus driver (a woman) on the way back was also very pleasant, which made us feel good. Even though we participated in the free children's program, the kids received tickets and pamphlets, and their seats were well secured, so I felt it was a good decision to book with Alan.
3/26に家族6人で参加しました。
ピックアップはホテルの前で、話がとてもおもしろいガイドさんだったので、楽しい気持ちで乗船所まで向かいました。送迎用の船は、やはり少し揺れたのですが、事前にここの書き込みをみて酔い止めを飲んでいったので大丈夫でした。
このところのハワイはずっと天気が悪い、ということで参加日も大変な雨だったのですが、潜水艦に行くまでの船のスタッフの方が「今日はよく見えるほうですよ」とおっしゃったので期待して乗り込みました。
海にもぐってしまうと揺れはまったく感じず、アトランティス社による人口漁礁を何箇所かまわるたびに、めずらしい魚がたくさん見られて、子どもも大人も窓の外に釘付けでした。最初にいただいたパンフレットにそれらの魚の解説が簡単にでていたのもよかったです。潜水艦は日本語の解説で、「めったにみられないエイがいましたね」とか「ほらほら、カメが眠っていますよ」などと臨場感たっぷりの説明だったので、とても楽しめました。
雨が結構降っていたので私たち家族はアラモアナのほうへは行かず直接ホテルへ送っていただいたのですが、帰りのバスの運転手さん(女性でした)もとても感じがよくて気持ちがよかったです。
子ども無料プログラムで参加させていただいたにもかかわらず子どももチケットやパンフレットをちゃんともらい、席もしっかり確保していただいていましたので、アランさんで予約してよかったと思います。
