At the end of the cruise, we spotted a whale, which we caught a glimpse of. The cruise on a sunny day was nice. I don't think I'll repeat it as a whale watching experience.

I made a reservation because it was stated that there would be a Japanese-speaking crew, but there was no Japanese-speaking crew. However, the crew members did their best to entertain us, and even though I'm not good at swimming, I was able to swim with the sea turtles and had a great time. It was nice to swim with the sea turtles and the crew (who only spoke English) were kind, but it was a bit disappointing that the information was incorrect.
日本語クルー確約と記載があったため予約しましたが、日本語クルーはいませんでした。
しかし、クルーの方が一生懸命楽しませてくれたので、泳ぐのが苦手な私でもウミガメと泳ぐことができ、無事に楽しむことができました。
ウミガメと泳げたこと、クルー(英語のみ)が親切だったので、良かったですが、情報が違うのはちょっと、、、
It seems like it would be a good idea to confirm whether the information is correct since there will be contact the day before.

Thank you very much for participating in our Turtle & You tour and for providing your valuable feedback.
We sincerely apologize for the absence of a Japanese-speaking crew member, despite the information indicating that one would be present. Upon investigation, we found that there was a miscommunication between the operations team and the reservation team, which resulted in incorrect information being provided. We are truly sorry for not meeting your expectations.
We are very pleased to hear that you were still able to enjoy the experience of swimming with the sea turtles alongside the crew. Thank you for your kind words about their service.
Moving forward, we will strengthen our inter-departmental communication to ensure that similar errors do not occur and that we can provide accurate information. We will thoroughly share your feedback within our company and use it for future improvements.

The crew for Hawea deserved an extra round of applause. They are the epitome of friendly professionals. The day we did our snorkel trip, it was a bit choppy due to a storm that had passed the previous night. Unfortunately, it left several passengers pretty sick. The crew did an excellent job taking care of everyone, and making sure everyone stayed safe!
If you have any kind of motion sickness, this might not be the best choice.

There was singing, services like spam rice balls, hula dancing, and a lot of other activities besides sea turtle snorkeling, which made it enjoyable! Having a Japanese guide eased my worries. The sea was also very beautiful.
However, reflecting on my experience, I had never gotten seasick before, so I didn't take any motion sickness medication, but the boat rocked quite a bit and I started to feel unwell. I think it would have been better to take the medication. Perhaps reading the lyrics while singing contributed to my nausea as well. My husband and son went up to the second floor of the boat and said they really enjoyed feeling like they were driving the boat, so I think I would have enjoyed it even more if I could have done that too...
歌あり、スパムおにぎりなどのサービスあり、フラダンスもありで、ウミガメシュノーケリング以外のものも盛りだくさんで、楽しめました!!日本人ガイドさんがいてくれたので不安もありませんでした。海もとてもキレイ。
ただ自分への反省として、今まで酔ったことがなかったので酔い止めは飲まなかったのですが、結構船が揺れて気分が悪くなってしまいました。酔い止めは飲んだ方がよかったかなと思いました。もしかしたら、歌を歌う時に文字を読んだのも、酔いに繋がったのかも。夫と息子は船の2階に上がって、自分が船を運転している気分になってとても楽しめたと言っていたので、それも出来たらもっと楽しめたな…と思いました。
I recommend taking motion sickness medication. Also, if you're feeling well, definitely check out the second floor of the boat!

Dear Mimi,
Thank you very much for participating in our "Turtle & You, Waikiki Turtle Snorkeling"!
We are very pleased that having a Japanese guide allowed you to join us with peace of mind and that you enjoyed experiences beyond snorkeling, such as singing, hula dancing, and spam musubi. We're glad you could take advantage of the spam musubi service, which is available only until the end of March this year.
Thank you also for your feedback regarding seasickness. It can be easy to get seasick due to the ocean's swaying, so we recommend preparing motion sickness medication. We hope that next time you join us, you will also go up to the second floor of the boat and have an even more enjoyable time!
We sincerely look forward to seeing you again 🌺 Mahalo

There is a regulation that prohibits approaching whales, so the boat does not get close to them. Therefore, it is not possible to take photos from a close distance like those on the explanation page. All announcements regarding whales are in English, so I do not recommend this for those who are not proficient in the language. Snacks and drinks are explained in English, so I couldn't figure out where they were located. Even with sunglasses and a hat, please be careful as the sunlight is very intense.
クジラに近づいてはいけないという条例があるので船はクジラに近づきません。よって説明ページのような至近距離からの写真は撮れません。

This time, my 9-year-old son, my husband, my mother-in-law in her 70s, and I participated together. The reception was a bit hard to find as it was located inside the Outrigger Reef Waikiki Beach Resort, across from the ABC Store. However, when I showed the voucher to the hotel staff, they kindly directed me to the reception area. When the time came, the staff gave a brief explanation (in all English), and then we all walked to the dock to board the boat. We were the only Japanese participants, which made us a bit anxious, but there were people from various countries joining us.
Once on the boat, the friendly staff explained snorkeling and talked to us in English. They patiently taught us how to inflate the life jackets, put on the fins, and wear the masks. As we listened to the explanations, we quickly arrived at the snorkeling spot and jumped into the sea! The beautiful ocean and numerous fish were amazing, and we even saw about five sea turtles up close! It was so close that it was surprising!
Additionally, soft drinks (like cola and Hawaiian drinks) and snacks were available for free, so we could eat whenever we felt a bit hungry.
After finishing snorkeling, we didn’t head back immediately but went sailing further out. We enjoyed many scenic views, even reaching the backside of Diamond Head. Sitting on the netting part of the boat while sailing was fantastic. We even spotted a whale, albeit briefly!
We had a very fulfilling time with snorkeling followed by sailing.
Here are some tips for those who will experience this:
1. If you are prone to motion sickness, be cautious as the boat can sway, and the waves during snorkeling can be intense. (I actually took motion sickness medication, but I still felt quite sick and had to return to the boat early. My son and husband, however, did not get sick and enjoyed the entire time.)
2. There are many other tours at the snorkeling spots, so there is a risk of getting separated if you get too absorbed in snorkeling. I made sure to stay close to our boat's staff.
3. Beginners in snorkeling may need to have some stamina. Fortunately, we were okay since we had some experience, but for first-timers, the wave height and moving to different spots might be challenging. However, it was nice that we could choose to return to the boat whenever we wanted.
I’ve mentioned three points, but overall, I am very satisfied!
今回、9歳の息子と私たち夫婦、70代ばあばの4人で参加しました。
受付はアウトリガーリーフワイキキビーチリゾートのホテル入って奥の方のABCストアの向かい側で初めてだと分かりずらいかもですが、ホテルのスタッフの方にバウチャー見せたら受付の場所を教えてもらえました。時間になるとスタッフの方が軽く説明をして(オール英語)、その後みんなで船着場まで歩き船に乗りました。日本人は私たちだけで不安でしたが、みなさん色々な国から参加されていました。
船に乗ると気さくなスタッフの方がシュノーケリングの説明や、色々英語で話してくれました。
ライフジャケットの空気の入れ方や、フィンの付け方、マスクの付け方など丁寧に教えてくれました。
説明を聞いているとすぐにシュノーケリングスポットにつき、いざ海へ!
綺麗な海とたくさんの魚、お目当ての海亀も五匹ほど間近で見れました!近すぎてびっくりするくらい!!
また、ソフトドリンク(コーラやハワイアンドリンク)や、スナックはフリーで食べれるので小腹が空いた時自由に食べれました。
最後シュノーケリングが終わった後はすぐに戻らず、さらに沖の方はセイリング。
ダイヤモンドヘッドの裏側の方までいきたくさんの景色を楽しめました。やっとの網の部分に座ってのセーリングも最高でした。
最後に少しでしたがクジラも見えました!
シュノーケリングの、後のセーリングでとても充実した時間が過ごせました。
以下体験する方へのアドバイス
1、乗り物酔いする方は中々船の揺れや、シュノーケリングの、波も激しいので気おつけてください。(実際私は酔い止め飲みましたが途中で酔いがひどくなり先に船に戻りました。※息子や夫は酔わないので終始楽しんでいました。)
2、他のツアーがスポットにたくさんいるのでシュノーケリングに、没頭するとはぐれる危険性があります。こまめに自分の船のスタッフさんを連れての近くにいるようにしました。
3、シュノーケリング初心者は体力が必要かも。幸い私たちはシュノーケリングをしていたので大丈夫でしたが、初めての方だと波の高さや、スポットに毎回移動するのが困難かも
でも、船に戻りたくなったら先に戻っていいのでそこは自由で自身の判断でよかったです
3点書きましたが総合的には大満足です!

The conditions were windy with high waves, so it felt like an experience similar to Splash Mountain... I was able to see the whale's spray and tail, and on the way back, I was also able to see dolphins and honu, which was great. I couldn't take any photos, but the views of Honolulu and the departing airplanes were full of highlights, and the captain's guided announcements were entertaining.

I was looking for activities to do in Hawaii with my 3-year-old, and I thought this would be a good option, so I made a reservation.
First, we took a larger boat to the diving point. During the ride, they pointed out things like, "Look, they're doing whale watching over there!" which made the journey enjoyable! We were also lucky to catch a glimpse of a sea turtle. My child had a great time.
Once we were in the submarine, we spent about 45 minutes underwater. While the adults enjoyed it, my active 3-year-old got a bit bored halfway through, and we ended up showing him a video for the last 10 minutes... (laughs)
However, for the first 15 minutes, he was excitedly saying things like, "The fish are waving at me!" I think it was a memorable experience for him since he even reenacted it during bath time when we got home!
Our family is an international marriage family living abroad, so English wasn't an issue for us. The guide was cheerful and shared jokes and interesting facts, which made it enjoyable, but those who are not confident in English might feel a bit left out. I heard that Japanese audio can be downloaded, but it might not always match what the guide is saying.
Overall, I think it was an activity that families with children can enjoy!
今回3歳連れで、ハワイでできるアクティビティを探していて、これはいいんじゃないかなと思って予約しました。
まず潜水ポイントまで、大きめの船で行きます。その時にも、結構「あそこでクジラウォッチングやってるよ、ほらあの方向」とか結構教えてくれて、その道のりも楽しみました!海亀もチラッと見えてとてもラッキーでした。子供もとても楽しんでいました。
潜水艦に潜ってからは45分ほど。大人は楽しめるのですが、うちの3歳動きたい坊やは途中でちょっと飽きてしまって、残り10半のところでビデオを見せることになってしまいました、、笑
でも初めの15分は「お魚さんが手振ってるー」とか言って楽しんでいる様子でした。
家に帰ってからもそれをお風呂で再現したりしているので、きっと心に残った経験だったんだろうなと思っています!
我が家は国際結婚ファミリーで、海外在住なので英語は問題なかったのですが、ガイドが陽気な方で、ジョークをとばしたりうんちくを言ってくれるので、楽しめましたが英語が苦手な方は置いてけぼり感があるかもしれません。日本語オーディオがダウンロードできるとのことでしたが、ガイドが話していることとは必ずしも一致しないと思います。
総じて、子連れで楽しめるアクティビティだったと思います!
At 3 years old, it might be questionable whether they can fully enjoy it, but still, I think it was worth it since there are few activities available for families with small children.
3歳だと100%楽しめるかは微妙かもです、、それでもやっぱり小さい子連れでできることは少ないので、やって良かったと思います。

The purpose was to see whales, but they were hard to find. Even when I did spot them, I could only see their spouts and a bit of their backs from a distance. It's understandable since it's nature, but later I was able to see the spouts from the hotel balcony as well.
クジラ見る目的なのだが、なかなか見つからなかった。見つけても遠くに潮吹きとわずかに背中が見える程度だった。自然が相手なので仕方ないが、後でホテルのベランダからも潮吹きは見れました。
When the weather is nice, you need to be careful about sunburn. Since you'll be looking for whales outside, there is little shade.

It was amazing to have a drink included, and we could freely take and eat snacks. Above all, we saw so many whales and dolphins! We were the only Japanese people on board, but on the contrary, all the other passengers were really lively, and it was a lot of fun.
We saw whales jumping with their calves and slapping their tails on the water's surface many times, and the guide even said, "This is the best whale watching ever," so we were very satisfied. Additionally, they delayed our return to the harbor so we could see the sunset without any obstructions, which was perfect.
If you're going to Hawaii during whale season, I definitely recommend this!
I also saw reviews about feeling seasick, but we were fine. Some people might need motion sickness medication, but it seems that those who are relatively strong don't have any issues.
ワンドリンク付き、スナック菓子も自由に取って食べられて、何よりクジラとイルカがたくさん見られて最高でした!
日本人は私達だけでしたが、逆に乗客がみんなノリが良くとっても楽しかったです。
クジラは親子でジャンプしているところや尻尾を水面に打ち付けているところが何度も沢山見られて、ガイドの人も「今までで最高のホエールウォッチングだ」と言っているほどで、非常に満足しました。
また、夕陽が沈むのを最後まで見られるように予定時間よりも遅めに帰港してくれたので、サンセットも遮るものなくバッチリ見られました。
クジラのシーズンにハワイに行くならぜひおすすめします!
酔うという口コミも見ましたが、私達は大丈夫でした。人によっては酔い止めがあるのかもしれませんが、割と強い人は無くて大丈夫そうです。

Due to the high waves that started midway, there was no snack distribution. I had planned to go get a drink when the snacks were handed out, so I couldn't go. When I stopped by the bar counter upon disembarking, there were no staff present, and there were only a few snacks in a basket that people who noticed helped themselves to. The drinks were just a display of cans... If the distribution was canceled due to the high waves, I would have appreciated it if someone had been at the bar counter during disembarkation to hand them out. In the end, I wasn't able to receive the limited-time drink benefit. I noticed that some people didn't tip at all, so I wondered if that might have affected the service. Although I didn't see any whales, I had a great time seeing a lot of dolphins, which made the lack of service feel like a missed opportunity.
途中から波が高くなったせいかスナックの配布がなかった。スナック配布されたらドリンクを取りに行くつもりにしていたので行けず。下船時にバーカウンターに寄りましたが、スタッフ不在、スナックが少しだけカゴに入って置いていたので気づいた人が自ら取っていました。
ドリンクは缶の見本が並べてあっただけ…。高波で配布を見送ったのなら、下船時にバーカウンターにいて頂いて、お渡しして欲しかったです。結局期間限定特典のドリンクは受け取れずじまいでした。
チップを全く入れてない人もいたので、こういうことも影響しているのではないかと思いました。
クジラは見れませんでしたがイルカがたくさん見れて楽しかっただけに、サービスがもったいなく感じました。
For the 10:30 flight, if the weather is clear, the sunlight can be quite strong, so I think it's a good idea to have sunscreen and a light jacket.

I participated in a sunset cruise. It departs from the yacht harbor in Waikiki and returns in about an hour and a half, making it easy to join. On the day I went, I could see the whales' spouts and tails far off in the distance, but the crew did their best to keep things lively and entertaining. Since it's nature, whether you get to see the whales up close is a matter of luck.

Since it was a tour involving nature, I thought I wouldn't know if I would see anything until it was over, but in the end, I had a wonderful experience. I understood that we couldn't get too close to the whales and would only be able to see them from a distance, but the whales came close to us, and I was able to see them up very close.
I participated in early February, and there were many whales. I was moved by how many there were. I definitely recommend this tour to anyone whose timing aligns.
自然が相手のツアーなので、見れるかどうか終わってみないとわからないなぁ、と思っていましたが、結果、素晴らしい経験ができました。くじらにはあまり近づけないとのことで、遠くからしか見られないのは仕方ないと思っていましたが、クジラが近づいてきてくれて、ものすごく近くで見ることが出来ました。

I participated in a tour that ended in the morning. The weather wasn't very good, and it was a bit chilly, but I didn't feel as cold as I thought I would when I got into the water. During snorkeling, there were many colorful fish, and I encountered a turtle a couple of times. Additionally, a little further away, there was a pod of dolphins, making it a satisfying tour with a variety of experiences in a short time. Next time I come to Hawaii, I would like to recommend it to my friends and participate together.
午前中で終了するツアーでしたので参加してみました。余り良い天候ではなく、少し肌寒い気温でしたが海に入ると思ったより寒く感じませんでした。シュノーケリングでは様々な色の魚がたくさんいて、カメさんにも2度程遭遇デキました。更に少し先の方にはイルカの群れがいてたりと短時間で色々と満足デキたツアーでした。次回、ハワイに来た時には友人達に勧めて一緒に参加したいです。
It's a short time underwater, but you'll be swimming with fins. Since the kicking motion is not something you're used to, it can be quite tiring, so it's a good workout! (laughs)

I participated in a sunset cruise. Right after we set sail, we were lucky enough to spot a whale, but since the boat was large, we observed it from a bit of a distance. It might be good to have binoculars.
The cheerful captain explained various things, but everything was in English. I think those who understand English will enjoy it.
After observing the whales, we headed near Diamond Head. They took pictures of us with the mountain in the background. After that, we slowly returned to the harbor while watching the sunset. The sunset from the sea was breathtaking, and I was very moved.
Once the sun set, we returned to the harbor and disbanded.
サンセットクルーズに参加しました。
出港後すぐにクジラがみつかりラッキーでしたが、船が大きいためか少し離れた場所から観察する感じでした。双眼鏡があるといいかもです。
陽気な船長さんが色々と説明してくれるのですが全て英語です。英語が分かる方は楽しめると思います。
一通りクジラを観察した後はダイヤモンドヘッド近くまで行きます。山をバックに写真を撮ってくれました。その後ゆっくり港に戻りながら夕陽を眺めます。洋上からの夕陽は絶景で、とても感動しました。
日が沈んだら帰港、解散となります。
After sunset, the wind feels even colder. It's chilly. Also, the boat sways a lot, so motion sickness medication might be essential. The motion sickness pills I bought at the ABC Store worked really w
日没後は風が一段と冷たく感じます。寒いです。
あと、船がめちゃくちゃ揺れるので酔い止めは必須かもしれません。ABCストアで買った酔い止めはよく効きました。

It was a trip with small children, but we were able to enjoy it without getting bored. It was very fun.
I wanted to see the dolphins a little closer. Thank you.
小さな子どもズレでしたが、
飽きずに楽しむことができました。
とても楽しかったです。
もう少し近くでイルカが見たかったです。
ありがとうございます。

I experienced some seasickness, so medication was essential!
However, it was amazing.
It was a short time, so I didn't get tired and had a great time.
Thank you!
船酔いもあったので、薬必須!
しかし、最高でした。
短い時間だったので、疲れず楽しかったです。
ありがとうございます。

Due to regulations and the nature of observing whales, we had to keep a distance greater than we imagined. However, we were able to see them multiple times, which made for a great experience. Additionally, the views of Honolulu and Diamond Head from the sea were beautiful, and we had a wonderful time.
自然のクジラ相手かつ条例規制もあるため、想像よりは遠い距離での観察でした。しかし、何度もその姿を観ることはでき良い体験が出来ました。その他にも海上からのホノルル市内やダイヤモンドヘッドの眺めは美しく、良い時間を過ごすことが出来ました。
The rocking of the ship is much stronger than I imagined, so I think it would be good to have some motion sickness medication.
船の揺れは想像以上に大きいので、酔い止めなどがあれば良いと思います。

I made a reservation for the sunset cruise, and I think the meeting place will be easy to find once you locate Prince Waikiki. When I went, there were also boats docked, which made it clear. I recommend arriving a bit earlier than the meeting time to secure good seats. Being at the very front might give you the best view in the end.
I participated at the end of January, and it started to get cold on the boat, so a jacket is a must. I brought a sweatshirt, but it was still chilly.
The boat rocked quite a bit, but I took motion sickness medication beforehand, so I was fine.
We encountered whales relatively early on! Although they were at a distance, we saw them multiple times. One even jumped high, but I missed it… just saw the splash.
They make sure to show you the sunset, so the disbanding time might vary. In our case, we were about 30 minutes late. (Please be cautious when scheduling your next plans.)
By the way, it mentioned snacks, but we didn’t receive any…
サンセットのコースで予約しましたが、集合場所はプリンスワイキキが見つかればすぐに見つかると思います。私が行った時は船も停船していたのでわかりやすかったです。集合時間よりも早めに行って並んでおいた方が良い席を確保できると思います。一番先頭が結局のところ一番見やすいかも。
1月末に参加しましたが、だんだん船上は寒くなってくるので上着必須です。私はトレーナー持っていきましたがそれでも寒かった。
結構揺れましたが、酔い止め飲んでおいたので大丈夫でした。
わりと早い段階からクジラに出会えました!遠目ですが何度も見れました。一度大ジャンプしたのですが、見逃しました…飛沫だけ…。
太陽の沈む時間までしっかりと見せてくれるので、解散時間はバラつきが出るかも。私達の時は30分ほど遅れました。(次の予定を入れる時はご注意下さい)
そう言えばスナックって書いてあったけど配られなかったな…
Please gather at the meeting place early, and plan the following schedule with some buffer time. A jacket is essential, and those who are prone to motion sickness should take anti-nausea medication.
早めに集合場所へ、その後の予定は余裕を持って、上着必須、酔いやすい方は酔い止めを。

I boarded the cruise that departed at 10:30. About 10 minutes after setting sail, while we could still see the streets of Waikiki, there was an English announcement saying, "Look towards 3 o'clock," and we spotted a whale's spout. We changed spots here and there to see whales… whales… whales… Mostly, we caught glimpses of parts of their bodies coming out of the water, and if we were lucky, we could also see the whale's tail.
At one point, there was an announcement saying, "There are dolphins!" and we were able to see a pod of dolphins as well! For almost the entire two hours, we were able to see something, which felt like a great deal. The view of Diamond Head from the sea was also beautiful!
The boat rocked quite a bit. One adult on board got seasick, and my one-year-old daughter threw up… Even though the staff provided paper towels and water, I think it would be wise to be well-prepared for seasickness (paying attention to meals beforehand, bringing drinks, and having a change of clothes ready).
10時半に出航する回に乗り込みました。
出航して10分ほど…まだワイキキの街並みが全然見えるところでさっそく「3時の方向をよく見て」という英語アナウンスがあり、くじらの潮吹きが見られました。とこどころスポットを変えてはくじら…くじら…くじら…。主には水面に体の一部を出してくるかんじをとらえつつ、ブシューッと潮吹きの場面を観る感じですが、運が良いとあのくじらの“尾”を観ることもできました。
またある地点では「いるかがいるよ!」というアナウンスがあり、イルカの群も見られました!
2時間のほとんどで何かしらを観ることができて、とってもお得でした。海からのダイヤモンドヘッドの眺めもまたいいです!
船はかなり揺れました。
同乗の大人1名が途中船酔いでダウンし、1歳の娘は吐きました…。吐いてもスタッフの方がペーパータオルやお水をくれたりといろいろとよくしてくださったのですが、船酔い対策はいろいろと万全に(直前の食事への留意、飲み物を持ち込む、着替え用意)されたほうがいいかと思いました。
Be fully prepared for seasickness! Having binoculars might be even better!
船酔い対策は万全に!
双眼鏡とかがあると尚良いかもです!
