My daughter and I had a great time climbing Diamond Head. We could go at our own pace which was awesome.
My daughter also left her hat on the van and they got back to me super quick when I emailed them and we just picked it up from their office. Fantastic customer service.
Highly recommend this tour.

I didn't catch a lot, but it was still quite enjoyable! Unfortunately, my child got seasick, so if you're prone to motion sickness, taking medication is a must. If you understand a little bit of English, you'll have a great time. The staff were kind, and when I didn't understand English, they translated for me using their phone. They also prepared the fish right there, and it was delicious! I would love to go again if I have the chance.
いっぱい釣れなかったですが、そこそこ楽しかったです!
残念ながら子供が酔ってしまって、船酔いする方は酔い止め必須です。
英語がすこーしだけ分かれば十分楽しめます。
スタッフの方も親切で、こちらが英語がわからない場合、携帯で翻訳してくれました。
お魚もその場で捌いてくれて、美味しくいただきました!
また機会があれば行きたいです。

My husband and I recently booked the tickets and shuttle to hike Diamond Head as I was reading how you had to have reservations to hike unless you are local. This is a change since the first time I hiked it when you didn’t have to make reservations. We also didn’t rent a car this visit, so the shuttle was perfect as it dropped us off and picked us up at a designated time. We were given tips on the way there as well as instructions how to make the hike more enjoyable. I highly recommend going with this company as you have three times to choose from to be picked up without the dynamics of reserving tickets or driving there or finding parking which is limited. The shuttle takes you as close to the trailhead as possible

We participated at the request of my son, who is in the first year of junior high school.
There were about 20 participants, and we were the only Japanese. First, we headed to Diamond Head and fished at about four different spots. We were able to catch some fish, which made for great memories. We caught a magnificent fish about 40 centimeters long, and the staff grilled it for us, and it was delicious♪
I was worried about the lack of transportation, but it wasn't a problem. It took about 15 minutes by taxi from our hotel (Waikiki) to get there. On the way back, we walked to the nearby Ward Center to do some shopping, played at the arcade in the Ward Entertainment Center, and also stopped by the Whole Foods Market next door. I called Hanataxi (they speak Japanese) to pick us up from Whole Foods and take us back to the hotel.
I'm really glad we decided to participate. Thank you!
中1息子の希望で参加しました。
20人ほどの参加者で日本人は私たちだけでした。
まずダイヤモンドヘッドに向かいそこから4ヶ所ほどポイントを変えながら釣りをしました。
無事に釣れて良い思い出ができました。
40センチくらいの立派な魚で、スタッフさんがグリルしてくださりおいしくいただきました♪
送迎が無いのが心配でしたが問題ありませんでした。
行きはホテル(ワイキキ)からタクシーで15分ほど。
帰りはすぐ近くにあるワードセンターに徒歩で行き買い物をして、ワードエンターテイメントセンターのゲームセンターで遊び、隣にあるホールフーズマーケットにも寄りました。ハナタクシー(日本語でok)に電話してホールフーズに来てもらいホテルに戻りました。
思い切って参加して本当に良かったです。ありがとうございました

We participated as a family of five (with three elementary school children). The kindness we received was wonderful, and the relaxed view of Diamond Head and Waikiki from the boat was amazing. It was also fun to see dolphins! We only caught a few fish, but we were able to catch fish that can only be seen in Hawaii, which made the kids happy.
家族5人で参加しました。(小学生3人)
とっても親切にしていただいて、のんびり船から見るダイヤモンドヘッドとワイキキは最高でした。

After deciding to go to Hawaii, I was asked to go fishing, so I made a reservation here. Although they didn't speak Japanese, we managed to communicate since it was fishing. I was worried about seasickness, but I didn't experience any at all. During our trip, we didn't catch many fish overall, but my son caught three small ones and released them. Although we couldn't eat them, my son was very satisfied to be able to fish in the beautiful sea.
ハワイに行くと決まってから、釣りがしたいとお願いされ、こちらを予約しました。
日本語は通じませんが、釣りですので、何とかなりました。
心配していた船酔いも全くなかったです。
魚は参加した回は全体的にあまり釣れずでしたが、息子は小さめを3匹釣り、リリースしました。
食べることは出来ませんでしたが、息子は綺麗な海で釣りが出来、大満足でした。

We gathered in front of the marina's dock. Despite the boat being named "Sashimi II," it was a bit disappointing that no one spoke Japanese at all. I was the only Japanese participant, but if you have a little experience with fishing, you can understand how to use the equipment and the fishing techniques. I was able to grasp most of the explanations through gestures.
The bait was cut squid, and we used a simple bottom fishing setup with a two-hook rig and weights. We fished while changing points from the marina to off Waikiki and Diamond Head. The scenery was beautiful, providing double the enjoyment.
The target was the Mōngara (a type of filefish), and the crew prepared the fish we caught on board, allowing us to taste it on the way back.
マリーナの桟橋前で集合。
さしみ2号(sashimiⅡ)の船名のわりに日本語は全く通じなくてちょっと残念。
日本人参加者は自分1人だったのですが、船釣りの経験が少しあれば道具の使い方や釣り方は判ります。身振り手振りでも大体の説明は理解できました。
餌はイカの切り身、2本バリとおもりのスピニングタックルのシンプルな底釣りです。
マリーナからワイキキ沖からダイヤモンドヘッド沖までをポイントを変えながら釣ります。風景も良く、ダブルの楽しみがあります。
ターゲットはモンガラ(カワハギの仲間)で釣った魚はクルーが船内でさばいて帰りに味見が出来ました。

It was my first time deep-sea fishing, and I was worried about seasickness, but the waves were calm, the weather was nice, and I enjoyed the stunning views of Waikiki, Diamond Head, and Coco Head during the cruise, so it was fine. We moved to several spots and patiently waited with squid as bait, but unfortunately, we didn't catch anything. However, we enjoyed delicious sashimi and sautéed fish caught by others. Every time someone caught a fish, there were cheers, and it was a lot of fun!

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

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。

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.
