Waikiki
We were the only Japanese family there. There were people from various countries, and some had babies with them. Since we also had a one-year-old, it was reassuring. The weather was just perfect, and the sea breeze felt great. Everyone around us was enjoying Mai Tais and having a good time. We sped quite far out to sea, and the splashes of water were amazing. It was definitely the right choice to wear swimsuits. Our five-year-old son was sitting at the front and was super excited. Luckily, we even encountered a sea turtle, which was a nice surprise. The captain looked a lot like Brad Pitt and was very handsome.
I would love to go on this trip again when I visit Hawaii. I want to recommend it to others as well.
日本人は私たち家族だけでした。
いろんな国の人達がいて、赤ちゃん連れもいました。うちにも1歳児がいたので安心しました。
ちょうど天気も良くて、海風が気持ちよかったです。周りの人達は皆んなマイタイを飲んでいい感じに盛り上がっていました。かなり沖合までスピードを上げて行くので水しぶきが凄かったです。水着を着て行き正解でした。また5歳の息子は先頭に座ってハイテンションでした。運良く、海亀にも遭遇出来てラッキーでした。キャプテンがブラピ似でとてもイケメンでした。笑
またハワイに行ったら乗船したいと思います。
周りの人にも勧めたいです。
Catamarans depart from the beach between the Sheraton and Halekulani. For just a little over $30, you can sail out to sea and enjoy views of Waikiki, which might be a good deal. Beer and sparkling wine are sold on board for $5.
シェラトンとハレクラニの間の浜からカタマランは出ます。30ドルちょっとで沖までセイリングしてワイキキを見られるのは安いかもね。船上でビール、泡が5ドルで売ってます。
Every time I come to Hawaii recently, I ride on the Mai Tai Catamaran. This was my third sailing.
The first sailing was last September, and we went towards Diamond Head with a pleasant breeze. Perhaps because there were many children on board, they lowered the stairs and provided time for those who wanted to swim.
The second time was in January this year for the sunset sailing. We were lucky to see a whale during the beautiful sunset in Waikiki!
For the third time, this September, the wind was strong and we were sailing fast (with only the mainsail). Depending on the location of the yacht, we got completely soaked. In no time, we could see Coco Head near the lighthouse behind Diamond Head. Along the way, flying fish were jumping, and after making a U-turn, the wind calmed down, and we unfurled the jib sail to head out to Ala Moana. We saw dolphins jumping! Near the Sheraton, a turtle popped its head up to say hello! It was the best sailing experience.
Each time is different depending on the season and wind conditions, so I'm always satisfied! I want to ride again next time.
ここ最近ハワイに来る度にマイタイカタマランに乗ってます。今回3回目のsailingでした。
1回目のセーリングは、去年の9月で 心地よい風でダイヤモンドヘッドの方まで行き 子供がたくさん乗っていたからか?階段を降ろして 泳ぎたい人は 泳げる時間を設けてくれました。
2回目は、今年の1月サンセットセーリング。美しい夕焼け ワイキキなのに まさかの クジラ!クジラが見れるなんてラッキーでした。
3回目は、今回9月で 風が強くビュンビュン(メインセイルのみの帆走)ヨットのいる場所によっては、全身ビシャビシャ。あっと言う間にダイヤモンドヘッド裏の灯台近くまで ココヘッドが見えました。途中 トビウオが ぴょんぴょん そこからUターンして風も落ちついてきてジブセイルもだして アラモアナ沖へ イルカがジャンプ!シェラトン沖では カメが頭を ひょっこり出して こんにちは! もう 最高のセーリングでした。
季節 風の状況で色々違うので 毎回満足!次回も 乗りたいです。
I had the best time surrounded by the beautiful blue sea, the wind, and the sunny Hawaiian weather. Honestly, I usually get seasick on cruises, so I was hesitant, but I'm really glad I took the plunge and signed up for this truly Hawaiian tour. There were about three groups of Japanese people as well. The speed wasn't too fast, so even small children were enjoying themselves. I highly recommend it! (*^^*)
美しい青い海と風とハワイらしい太陽とお天気に恵まれて最高の時間を過ごせました。正直私は必ずクルーズは酔うので苦手だったのですが本当にハワイらしいツアーで思いきって申込して良かったです。日本人も3組位いらっしゃいました。そんなにスピードが出るわけではないので小さいお子さんも楽しまれてましたよ。是非お薦めです(*^^*)
I have been coming to Hawaii for over 10 years and have experienced various activities, but it was a reasonable and exciting experience. I was able to see a honu (sea turtle), but it would have been amazing to see dolphins.
ハワイには10年以上来ており、いろいろアクティビティーも体験しましたがリーズナブルでエキサイティングな経験でした。
ホヌには会えたけどイルカに会えたら最高でした。
You can enjoy a lively atmosphere that feels like "The America" since Japanese is not widely understood here. In Waikiki, there are many Japanese people, but here you can relax and high-five with people from various countries and share lots of laughs. It definitely feels like a great experience.
日本語が通じないので、ザ☆アメリカというノリのいい雰囲気を楽しめます。
ワイキキだと日本人が多いけど、ここではいろんな国の人とのんびりハイタッチしたり、大笑いしたり。
かなり乗ってよかった感があります。
All staff were professional and helpful and had a great time. The only thing was one of the gals helping had her whole but showing and thought that was unprofessional. I don't mind some butt showing but the whole thing?
While enjoying the view of Diamond Head on the left, we gradually headed out to sea. After the midway point, we picked up speed and battled some larger waves, returning to Waikiki in about an hour and a half.
It was an 11:00 departure, and we were blessed with beautiful weather that day; the stunning ocean left a lasting impression.
This is a recommended tour that allows you to experience the waters of Hawaii easily and safely.
If I go to Hawaii again, I will definitely include this in my plans. Next time, I would like to try the sunset tour as well.
左手にダイヤモンドヘッドを眺めつつ徐々に沖に出て
中盤以降は速度を出し、やや大きな波と格闘し、
1時間半ほどでワイキキに戻ってきます。
11:00の便でしたが、当日は天候に恵まれ、
とにかくとても美しい海が印象的でした。
手軽で安全にハワイの海を感じられる
お勧めのツアーです。
またハワイに行くことがあれば
必ず予定に組み込むと思います。
今度はサンセットも試してみたいです。
It was the best experience to enjoy drinks on the boat, feeling the wind while surrendering to the pleasant music. I was more moved than I expected when we ventured further out and realized the vastness of the sea with the island behind us. My colleagues also loved this tour, and it seems like it will become a regular course for us from now on. I want to bring my family next time.
船の上でお酒が飲め、心地よい音楽に身を任せながら風を感じる...最高の体験でした。
思っていたより沖に進んだので、島を背にした時には海の広さを実感し、とても感動しました。
同僚達もこのツアーを気に入り、次回から定番のコースになりそうと盛り上がっていました。
私も今度は家族を連れて行きたいです。
A line forms in front of the "Rum Fire" at the Sheraton as the time approaches. You must be barefoot when getting on and off. For items that shouldn't get wet, there is a storage space under the middle seat with a lid. You will be scolded if you lie down on the net. It was fine to dangle your feet, though. Still, it feels nice. I didn't see any dolphins, but there was a sea turtle right after we departed. The view is great, and I think watching the raising and lowering of the sails is also a highlight.
シェラトンの「ラムファイヤー」の前に、時間が近くなると列ができます。
乗り降りのときは必ず裸足になります。
濡れたら困る荷物は、中央座席の下に蓋の閉まる荷物置きがあります。
ネットの上に寝転がると叱られます。足をブラブラさせる位なら平気でした。それでも気持ちいいです。
イルカは見られませんでしたが、出発してすぐにウミガメがいました。
眺めもいいし、帆の上げ下ろしの様子なども見どころだと思います。
Very nice boat and crew. Good drinks but would have preferred an open bar like the Island Magic. Delightful sail. Would do again.
I arrived in Honolulu and went shopping at Ala Moana before heading out! However, the trolley didn't come at all, and I ended up being late. I thought, "Oh no!!" but since this was my fifth time in Hawaii, I knew where the meeting point was, so I got off the bus and sprinted! They were waiting for me. The breeze felt nice, the ocean was beautiful, and the calm atmosphere made me truly appreciate Hawaii. Everyone, starting with the captain, was fun, and we enjoyed snacks while chatting over juice; the hour flew by. On the day of arrival, I was able to fully enjoy Hawaii at a leisurely pace, which was fantastic.
ホノルルに到着し、アラモアナでショッピングしてから出発!が、なんとトローリーが全く来なくて遅刻してしまいました。アウト!!と思ったけれどハワイ5回目の私は、集合場所がわかっていたため、バス停を降り全力疾走!!!ちゃんと待っていてくれました。風が気持ちよく、海が綺麗、穏やかな時間がハワイを実感させてくれました。キャプテンを始めみんな楽しい人達で、ジュースを飲みながらスナックのお菓子を食べ、楽しいトークであっという間の1時間でした。到着日は、ゆっくりハワイを満喫でき最高でした。
On this day in Honolulu, the weather was quite changeable, with sunshine, clouds, and rain throughout the day. Just as we were about to board the catamaran, the skies began to look ominous, but on the water, there was a refreshing breeze and slightly larger waves, making for a fun sailing experience as we occasionally got splashed by the waves.
This time, we were the only Japanese tourists, and the explanations were, of course, in English. Even though we arrived at the meeting point on time, there was no catamaran...
I had been at the Sheraton Hotel the day before and had seen the boat docked, so I was confident that I was at the right meeting point, but I started to feel a bit anxious. Since I couldn't speak English, I showed the voucher at the counter and pointed to the time, and they informed me that the time had been changed.
I was able to fully enjoy the beautiful sea, sky, the city of Waikiki, and Diamond Head all at once. I will participate again next time.
この日のホノルルは、晴れたり、曇ったり、雨に降られたりのコロコロ天気が変わる一日で、丁度カタマラン号に乗る頃、雲行きが怪しくなったのですが、海上は爽やかな風とちょっと大きめの波で、時々波しぶきを浴びながらの楽しいセーリングでした。
今回、日本人観光客は私たちだけ、説明は当然英語・・
集合場所に時間通り行ってもカタマラン号は無く・・
前日にたまたまシェラトンホテルにいて、停泊を見ていたので集合場所は間違いないと確信していたのですが、少し不安になりました。
英語がしゃべれないのでカウンターでバウチャーを見せ、時間の所を指さしていると時間を書き換えて変更になった事を教えてくれました。
綺麗な海と空とワイキキの街そしてダイヤモンドヘット、
ハワイの良さを一度に満喫出来ました。
次回また参加します。
There were about 20 passengers on board, but only three of us were Japanese. My mother, who is 85 years old, enjoyed it. We were able to see a whale for a little while. As we went further out, the emerald green water turned into deep blue! My mother was also moved by it. You really get to feel Hawaii more than on the night cruise. The price is also much cheaper. It's about an hour and a half, so it's not too long, just the right amount of time. Drinking beer on the yacht and feeling the Hawaiian breeze is the best!
20人位の乗船客でしたが、日本人は我々3人。母は85歳ですが、楽しんでいました。クジラもちょっとだけ見れました。沖に行くと、エメラルドグリーンの色がディープブルーに!母も感動してくれました。夜のクルージングより、ハワイを実感します。料金もはるかに安いです。1時間半くらいですので長すぎなく、ちょうどいい時間です。ヨットの上で、ビールを飲んでハワイの風を感じる、最高!
The day of participation was quite sunny, and since there were no other Japanese participants, I really felt like I was abroad, which made it so much fun. The juice I drank on the boat was exceptional! I was also able to see turtles swimming in the sea, which became a wonderful memory.♪
参加日はかなりの晴天で、また他の参加者に日本人がいなかったため、これぞ外国!という気分を味わえてとっても楽しかったです。
船の上で飲むジュースはまた格別でした!
海で泳ぐ亀も見ることができ、とってもよい思い出になりました♪
This was a fun day activities, the two gentleman was great host. We would do it again and highly recommend it...
I have never been sailing, so Hawaii was a terrific place to start. The team was great on this barefoot cruise, we had storage for our sandals and bags, and we enjoyed fresh-made maitais. It was fun watching the experienced crew set the sails, we got quite good speed and a fabulous breeze, and the views were amazing.
It was a great tour where I could enjoy the view of Honolulu from the sea in a short time. Since we went quite far out, it was a bit rocky, and the splashes of water made it chilly, so it's necessary to wear long sleeves or take measures against the sea breeze. The boarding area was a little hard to find.
短い時間で、ホノルルの景色を海側から眺められて良いツアーでした。結構沖まで出るので揺れるし、水しぶきがかかったりするので冷えるし潮風対策もかねて長袖等は必要です。乗り場が少しわかりづらかったです。
I wanted to ride a yacht in the ocean in Hawaii, so I made a reservation after arriving in Hawaii. Compared to other yacht cruises, the price was reasonable, and I was very satisfied.
ハワイの海でヨットに乗りたいと思いハワイについてから予約しました。他のヨットクルーズと比較して値段もリーズナブルで大満足でした。
We set sail in beautiful, clear weather, feeling great. At first, we were just gently swaying on the boat, but once we got out to sea, we were able to see sea turtles and got splashed by the waves (it wasn't much of a problem since we brought raincoats), and it was a lot of fun. Both my 3-year-old and 7-year-old enjoyed it together.
On the way back, the weather was so nice, with a pleasant breeze and the comfortable rocking of the boat, that I ended up dozing off. The kids, who don't understand English, desperately asked, "What are they talking about?" but when I translated it as, "If you study English, you'll understand," they seemed to enjoy it.
Many activities in Hawaii can be quite expensive, but this one was around $70 for four people, we got to see sea turtles, and we had a lovely sailing experience, so it was really great. I was torn between this and a submarine tour, but I made the right choice. I would definitely do it again!
快晴のお天気の中、気持ちよく出港。最初はただゆらゆらと乗っているだけでしたが、沖に出ると海ガメが見られたり、波しぶきで濡れたり(レインコート持参していたので然程問題なし)、とても楽しかったです。
3才も7歳も共に楽しめました。
帰りはあまりのよいお天気、気持ちいい風、船の心地よい揺れ加減で、居眠りしてしまうほど。
英語がわからない子供たちは必死で「何話してるの?」と聞いてきましたが、それも「英語をお勉強すればわかるようになるよ」と翻訳して話してやると楽しそうにしていました。
ハワイのアクティビティは高いものが多いのですが、これ四人でも70ドル程度、海ガメも見られ、心地よいセーリングも出来て、とっても良かったです。
潜水艦と迷ったのですが、正解でした。
また乗ります‼
We had a wonderful quick trip on the water with a crew that became fast friends. The skipper had all the right jokes and jabs to make you feel like you had sailed with him many times before. And the rest of the crew were as friendly as you could wish for. A cocktail cruise fit my bill perfectly. So tip big these guys deserve it!!!
We participated with a 3 PM reservation, and we were the only two Japanese people there. The pre-briefing was in English only, but I somehow understood how to put on the life-saving equipment, so I had no worries at all. It felt great to be in a foreign country. Alcohol was available for purchase (beer, cocktails). We turned back just past Diamond Head and stopped off the coast of Honolulu to enjoy jumping off the boat before returning. I was a bit disappointed that I didn't think we would be able to jump in, but I had a wonderful time relaxing and taking it easy. The boat was larger than I expected, so I didn't feel any rocking. The price was reasonable and I highly recommend it (US$56 for two). The whole experience, from departure to return, took about 1 hour and 30 minutes. How about you all?
3時予約で参加しましたが、日本人は私たち二人だけでした。事前説明は英語オンリーでしたが救命道具の装着方法等なんとなく分かりましたし不安は全くありませんでした。外国に来てる感じでよかったです。アルコールは有料販売(ビール、カクテル)。ダイヤモンドヘッド沖過ぎたぐらいでUターンで、ホノルル沖合で停止して船からの飛び込み楽しんでからの帰着となりました。飛び込みできると思ってなかったので少し残念でしたがゆっくり、のんびり時間過ごせ大満足です。船が想像以上に大きかったので揺れは気になりません。料金もリーズナブルでお勧めです(US$二人で56$)。出発から帰着までで、大体1時間30分。みなさんも、いかがですか。
My daughter is at the age where she can travel, so this year I took my first solo trip to Hawaii. Since a sunset dinner cruise was a regular activity with my daughter, I looked for a cruise that I could enjoy alone and found the Mai Tai Catamaran Cruise. Staying at the Sheraton Waikiki made the meeting place convenient, and I was satisfied with the reasonable price. Among the approximately 30 passengers, there were only a few Japanese, including myself and an older couple, while there were two Korean girls. As expected, the Western guests seemed to really enjoy the cruising experience. You can also order Mai Tais, beer, and soft drinks for an additional fee. I would recommend this cruise for those who want to enjoy a reasonable and fun cruising experience.
娘(noe)もお年頃と言うことで、今年初めてHawaii一人旅してきました。娘とはサンセットディナークルーズもお決まりのコースだったので、何か一人参加でも楽しめそうなクルーズはないか、と探し当てたのが今回のマイタイ・カタマランクルーズです。ステイ先もシエラトンワイキキなので集合場所も便利、またお値段もリーズナブルで満足しました。30名位の乗船客の内日本人は私と熟年ご夫婦、他にアジア系は二人連れの韓国gal、流石に欧米系の方達はノリもよくクルージングを楽しまれたようです。別料金でマイタイやビール、ソフトドリンクも頼めます。リーズナブルにクルージングを楽しみたい方にはお薦めできます。
I had seen the catamaran at the beach for a while. Since I was traveling alone this time, I hesitated a bit, but I'm glad I participated! I had a great time!
There were no dolphins, but I encountered a honu! It was just floating around, and I was thrilled!
During the cruising, I wasn't exactly near the net, but I got pretty wet, haha. The weather was nice, so I dried off quickly and got a nice tan. I enjoyed cruising while sipping on a $5 Mai Tai. Next time, I’ll have fun splashing around near the net with my friends!
以前からビーチで見かけていたカタマラン。今回ひとり旅だったので
少し躊躇しましたが参加してよかった!楽しめました!
イルカはいなかったけど、ホヌに遭遇!普通にプカプカしていて感激!
クルージング中は、ネットのまわりにいたわけでもないけどかなり濡れます笑
天気がよかったのですぐ乾くしいい感じに日焼けできました。
5ドルのマイタイを飲みながらクルージングを楽しみました。
次回は友達とネット近くではしゃぐぞー!
My 79-year-old mother also participated. Although we signed up after arriving at the location, we were able to make a reservation smoothly. Other than the meeting point being a bit hard to find, there were no problems at all. We were surrounded by beautiful sea and sky, and we had a wonderful time; my mother was very satisfied! Also, the captain was incredibly cool!
79歳の母も一緒に参加しました。現地に着いてからの申込みでしたが、スムーズに予約も取れました。
当日は集合場所が少しわかりにくい他は何も問題もなく、とにかく綺麗な海と空に囲まれ、素敵な時間を過ごすことができ、母も大満足でした!
あと、船長さんはものすごくカッコ良いです!
Five adults were very satisfied (^o^)
It was three times more fun than we expected!
Next time, I want to ride during the sunset ^_^
We couldn't jump in because it was full on the day, so making an online reservation was definitely the right choice ^_^
大人5人大満足(^o^)
予想の3倍楽しかったですよ!
つぎはサンセットで乗りたいです^_^
飛込みは当日は満員で無理でした。ネット予約して大正解でした^_^
This is my fourth time in Hawaii, and I've used this service three times. I recommend it for the afternoon of the first day. It's a large catamaran, so there's not much rocking, which makes it安心 (safe).
ハワイは4回目ですが 内3回利用しています
初日の午後にお勧めです
大型のカタマランですので 揺れもさほどなく
安心です
It felt like we were abroad since everyone else was from another country. The weather was nice, and it was a very pleasant sailing experience. I think an hour and a half was just the right amount of time—not too short, not too long.
They were selling drinks for $5, and I wanted to have one, but I decided to skip it just in case I got seasick. The waves were minimal, so I might have been fine to drink. Next time, I’d like to try the sunset cruise.
私たち以外外国の方でしたので海外にいる気分になれました。天気がよくてとても気持ちのいいセーリングでした。1時間半でしたので短すぎず長すぎずよかったと思います。
お酒が5ドルで販売してたので飲みたかったですが、船酔いを心配して念のためやめておきました。揺れは少なかったので飲んでも大丈夫だったかも。今度はサンセットクルーズに参加してみたいですね。
The weather was really nice, and the view of Diamond Head and the town of Waikiki from the boat was beautiful and impressive. Check-in started about 15 minutes before, and before boarding, they took group photos in front of the boat, which were sold for $13 or $15 after we got off. The photos were really good, so I purchased one. I participated in the tour at 1 PM, and the captain mentioned that the morning tour saw sea turtles, but we didn't see any turtles; however, we were able to see dolphins. When we spotted the dolphins, the captain chased after them, and it was a lot of fun. There were foreign girls lying on the net at the front, and everyone seemed relaxed. There were two staff members at check-in and two crew members on the boat, but all the explanations were in English. I heard there is a restroom on the boat.
天気がすごくいい日で船からのダイヤモンドヘッド、ワイキキの町並みはとても綺麗で感動しました。チェックインは15分前くらいからで、船に乗る前にグループごとに船の前で写真をとってくれて船を降りたあと13か15ドルで販売していました。すごくいい写真だったので購入しました。午後1時からのツアーに参加したのですが、朝のツアーでは海がめが見れたとキャプテンが言っていましたが、海がめは見れなかったけど、イルカをみることができました。イルカを見つけるとキャプテンが追いかけてくれてすごく楽しめました。先端のネットの上に寝転がっている外人の女の子たちがいたり、みんなリラックスした感じでした。チェックインのスタッフ二人と船上はクルー二人でしたが説明などすべて英語でした。船にトイレはあるそうです。
I participated in the 1:00 PM tour. It was cloudy on the day, and the color of the sea wasn't great, but once we boarded the boat, it turned into a beautiful sunny day, and the colors of the sea, sky, and scenery were amazing! Among the Asian participants, there was one other Japanese group, one Korean group, and two Chinese groups; the rest were mostly Westerners, and the boat was nearly full. The explanations were all in English, but you can definitely enjoy it! There's no need to worry at all.
The sailing lasted about 90 minutes, and I was moved to see how the color of the sea changed as we went further out. Holding a Mai Tai cocktail, the lively music and the slow pace that you don't usually experience were very pleasant. By the way, the cocktails are $5 each. I would love to join again the next time I go to Hawaii! It’s not an exaggeration to say it was my best memory.
13:00からの回に参加しました。
当日は曇りで海の色もいまいちだったのですが、いざ船に乗り込むと快晴になり
海の色も空の色も景色も最高でした~!
アジア系では日本人は私たち以外に1組と韓国人が1組、中国人が2組、それ以外は
欧米人が殆どでほぼ満席でした。
説明はすべて英語ですが、ズバリ楽しめます!何の心配も要りません。
たっぷり90分ほどのセイリングで、海の色が沖に行くにつれて変わっていくのが明確にわかり感動しました。カクテル(マイタイ)を片手に軽快な音楽と普段味わえないゆっくりとした時間が心地良かったです。ちなみにカクテルは1杯5ドルです。
今度ハワイへ行った際もまた参加したい!1番の思い出と言っても過言ではありません。
