It was a wonderful experience for beginners. Our instructor was patient and explained everything thoroughly. I liked that we snorkeled in a cove making the waters calm.

It was good well explained with saftey and what the plan was. The experience was o.k however there wasn't alot of sea life to see like turtles or alot of fish. The time wasn't as long as it is mentioned in the advertisement. It's great that they offer pics and vids I just wish there would of been more than just 6.

Even with last-minute reservations, you can feel secure as they confirm everything properly via email and phone. I was a bit anxious about the reception location since there was no sign (as mentioned in the reservation confirmation), but following the map sent with the confirmation helped me find it.
It mentioned to arrive 30 minutes early, but I ended up waiting with nothing to do until the start time, so the purpose of the early arrival was unclear.
The snorkeling experience starts with the instructor properly explaining how to handle the equipment, which is reassuring for beginners. I recommend it for those who want to safely try it out nearby. The water wasn't very clear, though.
直前予約でも、メールと電話できちんと確認されるので安心です。
当日の受付場所は、案内版がなくて(ないと予約確認書に書いてあります)不安でしたが、予約確認書に送られてくる地図に従うとたどり着くことができます。
開始30分前に来るようにと書いてあったのですが、何もすることなく開始時間まで待たされて、30分前集合の意図が不明でした。
シュノーケルは、インストラクターがきちんと器具の扱いを含めて説明をしてくれてから始まるので、初心者には安心です。
近場で安全に、とりあえず試してみたいという方にお勧めします。
海は、あまりクリアではありませんでした。

The team was super patient from the start. They gave us a check in call since we got a bit lost after parking. If you see lifeguard stand 1E, head left out towards the water, not down the beach. The instructor was really engaged and patient, tailoring the lesson to our comfort level.

Was a little nervous because I have never really enjoyed putting my face under water but Amber made me feel relaxed and comfortable. She was knowledgeable and you could tell that she enjoyed her job. Would recommend you tie your hair back so as to keep it out of your face. Had a wonderful experience.

We heard we had to try snorkeling on our first trip to Hawaii but neither of us are super-confident swimmers, especially not in the ocean. If that sounds like you, START HERE. This snorkeling experience ended up being just right for two reasons 1) excellent instructor, Zola and 2) excellent location, Magic Island Lagoon. I was excited to try snorkeling, but when it came time to put the mask on, stick my face in the water, and breathe - I couldn't do it. After patient and friendly coaching from Zola, I was finally floating around and breathing under water. I owe it to Zola that I felt ready to sign up for another, more challenging, snorkeling tour later in the week where I got to see more fish and turtles. The location is this peaceful, blue and beautiful lagoon that's protected from the ocean's strongest waves by a barrier. The water is clear and just lovely to swim in. I would go back just to enjoy the beach.

We wanted to snorkel without taking a boat ride. This was a great option. Our party of 3 (grandparents with granddaughter) were all beginners to snorkeling. They provided nice equipment so we didn’t need to purchase anything. The instructor, Ryan, was very knowledgeable. He showed us how to wear the items properly. He taught us the simple steps of snorkeling - breathing through the tube and floating. The lagoon was a perfect, protected place. We saw many different fish and sea creatures. Ryan’s patience with beginners was much appreciated. This was money well spent for an experience we will never forget.

We are a family of 4 (2 adults and 2 kids 9yr old and 6yr old). Instructor was very patient enough to guide us how to snorkel. He provided us some tricks to make snorkeling easier for beginners. He was always there to help us out and made us feel comfortable. Except for my spouse everyone else in the group are non-swimmers, the instructor helped us navigate through the water, and to top it he took amazing videos of us while snorkeling :)

Ricki was very patient and helpful in making our (my wife & my) first time snorkeling experience so good. My wife didn't know swimming but Ricki's tips helped put her at ease and she enjoyed it as well. Due to the small group nature of the tour, fortunately there was only 2 of us and we had lots of fun. Saw lots of fishes and reef. Would definitely recommend this to anyone looking for beginner lessons.

I have to admit that this being my first time snorkeling, I had never been so scared and nervous in my WHOLE life!!
Zola, our instructor, was extremely patient and caring throughout the entire experience. Even through I had to concentrate extremely hard with breathing and using my flippers, I was SO proud of myself and I couldn't have done it without him.
Ask for Zola for the snorkeling tour, you wont' be sorry. You will be in terrific hands!
