All Reviews for Top Places to Visit in Hawaii

Friendly staff, music, Mai Tai, and the night view of Waikiki from the ocean. The slow cruise means no worries about seasickness. The atmosphere was lively, and a foreigner sitting next to me asked where I was from, which led to fun conversations with various people. When it got a bit chilly, I ordered a Mai Tai with no ice for a refill. Just before we arrived, some people were dancing to the latest music as the drinks kicked in! Families, couples, and groups of friends were all enjoying the night view in their own ways.

フレンドリーなスタッフと音楽とマイタイと沖から見るワイキキの夜景。ゆっくりな航海なので船酔いも心配なし。気分も盛り上がり隣に座っていた外国人からどこから来たの？と声をかけられ、それがきっかけで色々な方と楽しいトーク。少し寒くなってきたらマイタイはノーアイスでお代わり。到着間際は酔いも回り最新音楽に合わせてダンスする方も！
ご家族、カップル、友達グループ、色々な方が思い思いの夜景を楽しんでいました。

I made a reservation on-site the day before, and the pickup was smooth and without any issues. It was my first experience with parasailing, and I signed up for the 120 m option.

It was higher than I imagined, and I was a bit nervous at first, but I was overwhelmed by the beautiful scenery. However, when the wind blew and it swayed a bit, it was a little scary.

I was excited when I was lowered into the sea and then brought back up (laughs). The crew and other passengers were all foreigners, but everyone was in high spirits and we had a great time!

I missed the chance to order the photos taken by the crew for $30 because I wasn't sure when to do it (I think they explained it after boarding...), but luckily, another passenger took some pictures for me, so I was able to keep a memory of the experience.

前日現地で予約しましたが、迎えも滞りなくスムーズでした。パラセーリング初体験、120 mの申し込みです。
想像以上に高く、最初はビクビクしていましたが景色のキレイさに圧倒。でもやはり風が吹いて揺れると少し怖かったです。
一度海に下されまた上げられ、興奮しました(笑)
乗務員・乗客が私達以外外国の方でしたが、皆さんテンションが高く楽しめました！
30ドルで乗務員の方が撮ってくれる写真は注文するタイミングが分からず逃してしまいましたが、(多分乗船後説明していたかと・・)一緒の乗客の方が撮ってくれたので、記念には残せて良かったです。

First time parasailing for my teenage son and I. It was the best experience and can't wait to do it again !!!

I participated with my 10-year-old niece. At first, she was scared when we were going up, but once we got to the top and settled down, she said, "This is fun!" I'm glad we participated.

10才の姪と参加しました。最初、揚がるときは怖かったけれど、のぼって落ち着いたら「楽しい❗」と言っていました。参加して、良かったー

I've been to Hawaii several times, but this was my first time participating in parasailing. I was excited to try it. At first, it felt really high and I was scared, but I quickly started to enjoy the view. I want to do it again.

何回かハワイに来ているが、初めてパラセイリングに参加。わくわくで望んだ。最初、凄く高く感じて、怖かったが直ぐに景色を楽しめた。また、参加したい。

I read the reviews and decided to give it a try from 150m. It was higher than I expected, but the sea was beautiful and the view was great, making it a lot of fun! I also requested the $30 photo package, and they took over 100 photos, including scenic shots, which became a wonderful keepsake. I would love to participate again!

レビューを読み150mで挑戦しました。
思ったより高くて海はキレイで景色も良くとっても楽しかったです^_^
30ドルの写真もお願いしましたが景色の写真も含め100枚以上撮っていただき記念になりました。
また参加したいです☆

The parasailing itself was awesome and the captain of the boat and the guy helping were awesome, but I did get sick so that put a downer on the day.

This was my first time participating. It was my husband, me, our son who is in the second year of middle school, and our daughter who is in the fifth grade, so there were four of us.

When it was our turn, we were all loaded onto the ride in no time. My son and I were on the sides, while my husband was in the middle with our fifth-grade daughter on his lap.

I thought it would be two people per seat, so I was surprised for a moment... but there was no time to ask questions before we started.

I wonder how safe it was for four people to ride together... It felt like they put us all together just to save time...

Also, my husband looked like he was struggling to hold our fifth-grade daughter on his lap, and in the photos, only his legs were visible because her face was covered.

The experience itself was fun, and thankfully, we finished without any accidents, but I keep feeling uneasy because I thought we would be riding two by two.

初めての参加です。
主人、私、息子中学2年生、娘小学5年生での4人参加でした。

順番がきて、あっという間に4人一緒に乗せられました。両サイドが私と息子、真ん中で主人と膝に小学5年の娘を挟む形で乗せられたんです。

てっきり2人ずつだと思っていたので
えっ！？と驚いたのも束の間…質問する隙もなくスタート。

安全上、4人乗りってどうだったんだろう…
なんだか時短のために4人一緒にされたんじゃないか、て気がして…(･･;)

あとさすがに5年生にもなる娘を膝にかかえていた主人は重そうでしたし、顔がかぶって写真には足しか写ってなかったです…

体験自体は楽しかったですし、
事故もなく無事に終わりましたので良かったのですが、2人ずつ乗れると思っていたので
思い返しては すごくモヤモヤしています。

Excellent crew. Fun adventure. Definitely recommend

Meu marido, minha filha de 13 anos e meu filho de 6 se divertiram muito!!! Eu recomendo! !!

My husband, my 13 old daughter and my 6 years old boy had a great time!!! I highly recommend!!

I went with a friend. The cocktails were delicious, the show was fun, and it was really great. I definitely want to go again.

友人と２人で行きました。
カクテルも美味しく、ショーも楽しく、とても良かったです。
また是非行きたいです。

My family had a great time! Crew was amazing, boat wasn't crowded and the views were beautiful. Almost booked a second cruise on our trip.

A must to do staff was very nice, professional and friendly. Will take the family again, I recommend it to anybody who wants to have an adventure. Looking at the tropical fish and turtles.

As the final night event, I went to check it out. I only participated in the cocktail portion, but it was definitely worth seeing. Of course, there were impersonators of Celine, Michael, and Elvis, but I was most excited about the Hawaiian dance (Fireman and Hula dance)!! The sound was amazing, and the visuals in the background, along with the high quality of the surrounding dancers, made it a very good quality show that you can see quite up close. At the end of the show, you can take photos together in the meeting area. I was hesitating, wondering if tips were necessary since I didn't know the going rate, but it turned out that tips weren't needed, and they were happy to take photos casually! 😊

最後の夜のイベントとして、いってみました。カクテルだけの参加でしたが、見る価値絶対あります。セリーヌ、マイケル、エルビスのそっくりさんはもちろんですが、私はハワイアンダンス（ファイアーマンやフラダンス）が一番興奮しました！！　サウンドも素晴らしいし、バックに映る映像の演出、周りのダンサーのQuality の高さなど、ShowとしてはとてもよいQualityで結構近くでみれます。ショーの最後にミーティングエリアで一緒に写真もとれます。もしかしてチップとかいるのかな？相場がわからないな？と躊躇していましたが、Chipなども必要なく、気軽に写真撮影に応じてもらえましたよ＾＾

I participated with my 5-year-old daughter (who will turn 6 this year), my 9-year-old son, my husband, and my parents who are 65 and 62 years old. Everyone did the 90-meter activity. Since we had two children, we split into two groups of three for balance: my husband with the two kids and me with my parents.

My daughter cried a little as soon as she went up, but when she came back, she had a big smile and said, "Again!!!" My mother is afraid of heights, so she was really tense. However, it seems she enjoyed it enough and doesn't regret it.

I love heights, and to be honest, I wanted to go higher than 90 meters before participating, but I felt it was good! If it had been higher than 90, the view might have been too far away.

It became a really great memory! During my brother's wedding trip to Hawaii, I struggled to find free time due to work commitments, debating whether to go sightseeing or spend time on activities like this, but I truly feel that parasailing was a great decision! It was fun!

Oh, and motion sickness medication is a must. The boat's rocking was really intense.

5才の女児（今年6才になります）、
9才男児、
主人、
私の両親65才、62才と一緒に参加。
全員90メートルです。
子供が２人いたので、バランスを取るためか
3人ずつ2グループに分かれ
主人＋子供2人　と
私＋両親　というグルーピングでした。
娘は上がった瞬間に少し泣いてしまったそうですが、
戻ってきたときには、もう一回！！！と大きな笑顔。
私の母親は高所恐怖症なので
やっぱりすごく硬直してました。
まぁでもそれなりに楽しめたようで、後悔はしてないようです。

高い所が大好きな私、
参加前は90メートルよりはもっと高く行きたかったのが本音ですが、
でも、よかった！！と思えました！
90より高かったら、景色が離れてしまうだろうしなぁと。


すごくいい思い出になりました！
弟の結婚式での渡ハで、仕事の都合もあってほとんど自由時間を作れず
観光するか、こういうアクティビティに時間を使うかすごく悩みましたが
ほんとうに、パラセイルして、よかったと心から思います！！
楽しかったです！！

あ、酔い止め必須です。
船の揺れがものすごくひどかったです。

The cruise started right on time. The cheerful captain got everyone excited for the start, and we toasted with Mai Tais☆ As lively music played, the entire view of Waikiki Beach unfolded before us. We could also see the scenery beyond Diamond Head, and the sunset was beautiful. There were few Japanese tourists, creating a great international travel atmosphere! I enjoyed three Mai Tais plus a beer!

時間ぴったりにクルーズスタート。陽気なキャプテンがスタートを盛り上げ、マイタイをみんなで乾杯☆陽気な音楽が流れる中ワイキキビーチの全体像が広がって行きます。ダイアモンドヘッドの向こう側の景色も見れて、夕焼けもキレイに見れました。日本人は少なく海外旅行の雰囲気満点です！マイタイ3杯プラスビールをいただきました！

The pickup was about 15 minutes late, which made me a bit anxious. The driver, captain, and guide all spoke some broken Japanese. Once on the boat, we put on our seatbelts (they do everything for you, so you just have to slip your legs through) and after a harness explanation (all in English, with important instructions in Japanese not to touch the very important red cord or the harness), we quickly took off with the first group. The boat ride to the jump-off point felt like an attraction and was full of thrills. Once we took off, the ocean was below us, and in front of us was the beautiful skyline of Waikiki. It was truly stunning and moving. The drop into the ocean gets you quite wet. They took over 100 photos for $30, distributed on an SD card. It's worth it to order. The return boat ride to the dock was also fun and felt like an attraction. If you get seasick, be sure to take motion sickness medication.

ピックアップが15分程度遅れて少し焦った。ドライバー、キャプテン、ガイドみんな片言の日本語は話せる。舩に乗るとベルトを装着(全部やってくれるので足を通すだけ)し、ハーネスの説明(全部英語、ものすごく大事な赤の糸を触るな、ハーネスに触れるな、は日本語あり)をしたあと、結構すぐに一組目から飛び上がります。飛び上がり始めるポイントに行くまでの舩の操縦もアトラクションのようでスリル満点。飛び立つと眼下に海、目の前にはワイキキの町並み。本当にきれいで感動。海へのドロップは結構濡れる。写真は100枚以上撮影してくれて30ドル、SDカードで配布。頼んだ方がお得。船着き場までの帰りの舩の操縦もアトラクションのようで楽しい。船酔いする人は酔い止めを。

I wanted to see the fireworks beautifully on Friday, so I decided to go on a cruise. It was just my 9-year-old daughter, my 68-year-old mother, and me, who can't speak English, but we were able to enjoy it enough and were very moved by the beautiful fireworks seen from the sea! The meeting place was hard to find, and even when it was time to depart, we didn't leave right away, which made me a bit anxious, but I'm glad we participated! My daughter also said she had a great time.

金曜日の花火をきれいに見たかったので、クルーズすることにしました。英語の話せない私と9歳の娘と68歳の母の3人での参加でしたが、十分楽しむことができ、海側から見るきれいな花火にとても感動しました！集合場所がわかりにくく、出航時間がきてもなかなか出ないので、不安なことはありましたが、参加してよかったです！娘も楽しかったと喜んでいました。

We had heaps of fun. There was a great group on the trip. The crew were relaxed and accommodating setting the mood for the afternoon. Would recommend this activity to anyone visiting Waikiki

Great fun, short cruise but a good view of the fireworks. Fair bit of seating on the vessel, bar on board with basic drinks for cash. Board from the beach, beautiful evening activity for August.

Love it, love it , love it!
I don't drink, and I do not need it to feel a very nice environment, every body was very happy. Well done organize.

Our family's first trip to Hawaii!
I wanted to give my 6-year-old daughter and 8-year-old son an experience they wouldn't normally have, so we chose parasailing.
On the day of the activity, our cheerful and fun driver, Yano-san, shared recommendations for local shops during the ride, which was great!
Once we arrived, we quickly boarded the boat with another family of three from abroad, and with our family and two more cheerful staff members, we set off with a total of nine people!
Most of the instructions were in English, but they were easy to understand with gestures, and I think the kids understood as well.
What made me happy was that since the kids are small, they said we could all fly together, and we did! Mom and Dad were in the back, and the kids were in front. We were able to take a family selfie in the sky, and we were thrilled to see so much of Waikiki and Diamond Head together.
For $30, they took over 120 photos of our family.
My daughter, who is a bit timid, was harnessed up in no time thanks to the efficient preparation, and before she could even feel scared, she was smiling at 120 meters above ground! She was so excited and said it felt amazing.
Thank you very much!

家族で初ハワイ！
6歳の娘と８歳の息子に、なかなかできない経験をさせたくて、パラセーリングを選びました。
当日は送迎の時からヤノサンという明るく楽しい運転手さんに、地元の人オススメのお店情報を教えてもらえたり、嬉かった〜。
現地に着くと、すぐにボートに乗り込み外国のもうひと家族３人と、私達家族と、これまた明るく楽しいスタッフ2人の合計9人で出発！
ほとんど説明は英語だけどわかりやすくジェスチャーでも表現してくれて、多分子供も理解していました。
嬉かったのは、子供が小さいから4人で飛べるよ〜と言ってくれて、４人で飛んだこと！パパママ後ろで子供たち前。空の上で自撮りで家族写真撮れたし、一緒にたくさんワイキキやダイヤモンドヘッドを見ながら感激できました。
30ドルで家族4人の写真も120枚以上撮ってくれました。
あと少し怖がりの娘も、準備の手際の良さで、アッという間にハーネスをつけられ吊るされ、怖がる暇もなく、上空120メートルではニコニコ笑顔！気持ちーと大はしゃぎしてました。
ありがとうございました。

We participated with my brother's family and our parents to find something enjoyable for my 4-year-old niece.

We took a boat to the transfer point for the submarine. Sitting in an outside seat, the boat rocked quite a bit, especially while we were in the bay. The wind helped distract from the motion, but those who are prone to motion sickness should be cautious.

Although the transfer to the submarine was last, it might have actually been the right choice. I had a window all to myself. My parents, who were seated in the middle, mentioned that they had to share two windows with 3 or 4 people, which made it a bit cramped. However, the staff's chatter was quite loud, and while it wasn't bothersome if you didn't understand English, it was a bit annoying when seawater dripped in after the hatch was opened.

There were plenty of fish around the artificial reefs made of blocks, boats, and airplanes. However, they didn't come close to the windows. It turns out that it doesn't quite match the pictures. Still, watching the underwater world while listening to the audio guide was fascinating and enjoyable. My niece didn't listen to the guide, but she seemed to have a good time.

4歳の姪っ子が楽しめるものを、ということで弟家族と両親と参加しました。

潜水艦への乗り換えポイントまで船で行きます。
船外の席に座っていると、かなりの揺れ。特に湾内にいるときの方が揺れました。
船外の席で風に当たっていると気分は紛れますが、乗り物酔いしやすい人は注意が必要かも。

潜水艦への乗り換えが最後になってしまいましたが、これが実は正解だったかも。
船窓を独り占め。真ん中のほうの席にいた両親は、3,4人で２つの船窓だったので隣の人が少し邪魔だったと言っていました。
ただし、暇を持て余したスタッフが話している声が結構大きいのと（英語が分からないとそれほど気になりませんが）、浮上後にハッチを開けた際に海水が少し降ってくるのは我慢です。

ブロックや船、飛行機などの人口漁礁の周りでは魚がいっぱいいました。
ただ、船窓近くには寄って来ませんが。やはり、写真のようにはいかないですね。
それでも音声ガイドを聞きながら見る海の世界は興味深く、楽しいものでした。
姪っ子はガイドは聞いていませんが、それなりに楽しんでいたようです。

The scenery from after 5 o'clock until sunset is amazing! The cruise while drinking cocktails was fun! (o^^o)

5時すぎから日が暮れるまでの景色は最高！
カクテル飲みながらのクルーズ 楽しかった(o^^o)

Enjoyed the submarine experience with my 3 kids ages 7,12 and 14. All of us had a great time. The short boat ride to and from the dive site was great, with beautiful views of Waikiki and Diamond Head. Everything was very organized and the staff all seemed genuinely happy to be there. The narrator dude (Justin or Jason...can't remember) was awesome!...funny and knowledgeable. Sad to hear about how global warming is changing what can live and grow in Hawaiian waters and how quickly things are changing. We saw a million colorful fish, a shark and a turtle. Totally worth it!

The crew were great. The swimming was pleasant enough and we did get to see turtles up close which was definitely the point but the water was quite cloudy and visibility was a bit too low for you to really see much. Not the tour companies fault at all... you get what you pay for.

It's not every day you get to ride in a submarine! Well organised informative staff and really well run. One of our trips highlights especially after it being a spur of the moment thing

My Dad and I did the 1000ft foot line and it was AMAZING! Definitely one of the best things we did in Oahu.

My partner & I, sister & brother in law had such a good fun time. The crew were young, energetic & so professional. Nothing was a problem, plus they were also great photographers. The food was delicious & lots of it & the drinks were plentiful. The catamaran was fun especially sitting at the front on the net with the water underneath you. When we arrived back at the pier our shoes were ready sitting in pairs, after they had been locked safely away in a box on the dock until our return. Oh yes & the sunset was beautiful.

They advertise two drinks but you get more then that. It was a very good trip. Well run.
