Diamond Head Crater Hiking Tour with Reserved Tickets & Shuttle from Waikiki

So many people hard to enjoy.

Reviewed by: Piper

The tour driver was great! He got us there and through the gate in a timely manner. However, if you are looking for serenity or a peaceful hike, you have come to the wrong place. It was so crowded it was hard to enjoy. Had some younger individuals that thought we might all enjoy their music blaring.

This site would benefit from a timed entry system.

海釣り体験 ワイキキで釣りもクルーズも楽しめる!小さなお子様も参加可能 釣り用具付き<混載または貸切/3~4時間/ケワロ湾集合>

It's irresistible for fishing enthusiasts! 釣り好きには堪らない!

Reviewed by: もずく

Duration:
Including travel time, you can enjoy about 90 minutes of fishing at a beautiful offshore point overlooking Diamond Head, which takes approximately 3 hours to reach! It was just the right length—not too long, not too short.

Catch:
My wife and I tried fishing together, and we caught four large butterflyfish, close to 30 centimeters, with strong pulls! Unlike the butterflyfish in Japan, these were colorful with pink tails and made a "boo boo" sound. Some people didn’t catch anything at all, but it’s necessary to tweak your fishing technique a bit. The bait is squid, but it’s cut quite roughly, so I recommend tearing it into smaller pieces to use.

Staff Response:
The staff provided thorough instructions on how to handle the fishing rods. They quickly addressed issues like tangled lines with neighboring guests and helped remove caught fish from the hooks. When my wife got seasick, they were always attentive and offered her ginger candy.

Wonderful Service:
You can bring your own food and drinks, including alcohol. Water and light juice are available for free from tanks on board. The caught fish are immediately prepared for you. By the time we returned to port, we all enjoyed the butterflyfish sautéed with delicious seasonings in a large frying pan. As a side note, my wife had recovered from her seasickness by then and was even asking for seconds. (laughs)

所要時間:
およそ3時間でダイヤモンドヘッドを望む美しい沖合いポイントまで移動時間を含めると実質90分ほど船釣りを楽しめます!長過ぎず、短すぎず、程良かったです。
釣果:
妻と二人でトライしましたが引きが強くて30センチ近くの大きなカワハギが4匹釣れました!
日本のカワハギと異なり、カラフルでピンクの尾をしていて、ブーブーと鳴いておりました。
中には全く釣れない人たちもいましたが、釣り方を少し工夫する必要があります。餌はイカですがかなりざっくりカットされているので、少し小さくちぎって、つけるのがお勧めです。
スタッフ対応:
丁寧に釣り竿の扱い方などをレクチャー頂けます。また隣の客と糸が絡まったり、釣れた魚を針から外したりする際に迅速に対応してくださります。妻が船酔いでダウンした際は常に気をかけて下さり、ジンジャーの飴を渡してくれました。
素敵なサービス:
アルコールを含む飲食物を持ち込めます。
船内に水、薄いジュースがタンクから無料で頂けます。釣れた魚は直ぐに捌いて頂けます。帰港までには大きなフライパンで香ばしい調味料と一緒に炒められたカワハギを乗員全員で美味しく頂きました。蛇足ですが、妻はこの頃には船酔いから回復しており、おかわりしてました。笑

They provided gentle support for beginners who experience issues like tangled fishing lines, difficulty attaching bait, or removing hooks from caught fish. They cheered when they spotted sea turtles and dolphins.

釣り糸が絡まったり、餌がうまく付けられない、釣った魚から針をはずせない、など釣りの初心者が体験する際にも優しくサポートしてくれました。

It was great to have round trip transportation and everything provided such as waters, walking sticks, and bug spray. It was pouring rain when we went and the rain ponchos came in handy for $5. We felt very prepared for the hike along with information of its history and movie sites to look for. Was an enjoyable time

If you think of it as cruising, it's quite enjoyable. クルージングと思えば十分満喫です。

Reviewed by: ゲンキちゃん

Although it was disappointing that we didn't catch any fish, the captain was quick to assist when we had trouble handling the fishing gear. We moved to three different spots, and we only had about an hour and a half of fishing time. The captain cooked the fish caught by others on board and served it as fried fish for us to enjoy while returning to the harbor. There was a large shark swimming near the boat, and we were able to see it up close, along with the sight of sea turtles swimming. The scenery was fantastic, making it a great experience for cruising and sightseeing.

釣りは何も釣れずに残念でしたが、釣り具の扱いに困った時には船長さんがすぐフォローしてくれました。
3ヶ所ポイント移動して、釣りの時間は1時間半程度しかありませんでした。
他の方が釣れた魚を船長が船上で調理してフライドフィッシュとして釣り場から帰港するまでの間に食べさせてくれました。
船の近くで大きな鮫がウロウロしており、間近に見れて、海亀の泳ぐ姿が見られたり、景色も最高でクルージングや観光としては十分楽しめました。

Great time 1st trip on a fishing boat with kids. Meeting many wonderful patron on the ship along with the boat captain. Our kids managed to catches the first fish during our boat trip. Definitely would plan to come back next month. Hopefully this time our boat can catch more fishes comparing to last trip. It's wasn't that much fishes floating somehow but overall still an awesome journey with kids and family's. Scenic of Waikiki is unbelievable along many Dolphin jumping and boiling on the surface of the sunrise calm Aquatic blue ocean.

Really nice fishing trip! Jack and the Capt. (don’t think I got her name) were really great hosts. Jack was excellent! Super helpful with all concerns regarding fishing equipment and hooking a fish. The Capt. was kind and informative. She knows her job and does it well. Despite the choppy seas, she got us to the spots where people caught fish. It was a great time and well recommended.

The ship rocked violently due to rough waves and wind! It took nearly an hour to get to the fishing spot, we fished for an hour, and then it took another hour to return, which left me feeling a bit unsatisfied.

Waikiki Bottom Fishing Cruise Tour - Ohana Fun Charters

Kind of ok, but would not recommend it to a friend

Reviewed by: Mike, bass angler

It was ok. Tackle is not fancy but well maintained, bait is basic easy kind (frozen squid). Our group (about 20 people) caught 4 small fish total over 3h - not much but it is great to prove that we all had a chance. I felt like the crew could have done better. My personal peeve is, for some reason they decided to move away from a shallow (= easy to fish) spot where multiple people were getting bites to a super deep one with no bites (I’m guessing they were simply unaware that we were getting bites). Another problem is, when at a spot, the boat is simply set adrift, which makes it quite impossible to fish vertically (since the boat is moving).

We took the bus from our hotel in Waikiki to Kewalo Basin. We went on a fishing experience for about three hours on the Sashimi No. 2. We were the only Japanese people on board, along with about 20 others. There were three staff members, including the captain. They handled everything, including tangled lines and lost hooks, which made it easy for us. The bait was frozen squid. About 30 minutes in, we caught a fish that was around 20 centimeters long. The smell of the frozen squid was overwhelming, but it was a very enjoyable time.

Went to Hawaii for our honeymoon. We were in Oahu for 2 days at the tail end of our trip. This tour was perfect for what we wanted to accomplish on our last day. The tour lasted roughly 4 hours and we had full transportation to the hiking sites, plus entry fee for Diamond Head. We were able to see the sunrise at Diamond Head which was a once in a lifetime experience!

Definitely recommend this tour for those who want to hike solo, but need the transportation.
