The weather was really nice and pleasant. We went higher than I expected, so it might be a bit scary for those with a fear of heights. Also, the boat was rocking quite a bit, and there were some people who got seasick.

すごくいい天気で気持ちよかった。思ったより高いところまで上がったので高所恐怖症の人はちょっと怖いかも。あと、けっこう船が揺れて船酔いしている人もいた。

I did it at the beach near the zoo. It was my first time, but I was able to stand up. It was so much fun that I decided to do it again on-site. Next time, I want to try it at the big waves on the North Shore.

動物園の前辺りのビーチでやりました。初めてでしたが立てるようになりました。楽しかったので現地で追加してやりました。次回は波の大きいノースショアでやりたいです。

More Fun, affordable price, friendly people, and best provider of Parasail in Honolulu.

We participated with our 13-year-old and 11-year-old children. We made a reservation online from Japan and had no idea what to expect. However, a car picked us up at the hotel and took us to the port, where we boarded the boat right away. We joined other foreigners who had signed up directly on-site and took off as parent-child pairs. Once the boat moved out to sea, we put on life jackets and strapped on the equipment, then soared into the sky all at once. The thrill was incredible! We floated in the air for about five minutes, and as we were being lowered while the rope was reeled in, we landed back on the boat. I was amazed at how easily we could fly! The kids enjoyed it very much and weren't scared at all.

１３才と１１才の子供と４人で参加しました。日本からネットで予約して参加しました。どんな感じか全く想像できませんでしたが、ホテルまで車で迎えがあり、港まで連れて行ってくれて、すぐにボートに乗船しました。現地で、直接申込みしている外人さん達と一緒に乗船し、親子ペアで最初に飛びました。船が沖まで進むと、ライフジャケットを着て器具を装着し、一気に上空へ飛び上がりました。その快感は最高でした！上空で５分ほど空中をふわふわし、ロープを巻き取られながら下降してボートへ着地。こんなに簡単に飛べるんだ〜〜と驚きでした。子供たちも怖がることなく、とっても楽しめて気に入っていました。

We were on the boat with a family when it suddenly started having issues, so we had to turn back. We had signed up for morning activities, but we decided to come back in the afternoon. They apologized and raised the height for each of us by one level. They also took about 130 photos for $30 and gave us an SD card to take home. It was really refreshing. The creaking of the hardware added to the thrill!

私たちと一緒に乗り合わせた家族が終わったところで、船の調子がおかしく引き返すことになりました。午前中のアクティビティに申し込んでたのですが、午後から出直すことになりました。悪いねと高さもそれぞれ１つずつUPしてくれました。写真も＄３０で１３０枚ぐらいとってくれ、帰りにSDカードでくれました。とっても爽快です。金具がみしみし言うのはスリル度UPです。

I heard there would be an English instructor, and since it was in Hawaii, I thought it would be an instructor who could speak Japanese for the Japanese customers... but the person I rode with was American. Most of the staff spoke only English... but we managed somehow.
It was refreshing to soar up into the sky and look down at the ocean!

英語のインストラクターがつくとあったのですが、ハワイなので日本人のお客に結構日本語も話せるインストラクターの方だと思ったら・・・一緒に乗り合わせたのはアメリカ人。スタッフの方もほとんど英語オンリー・・・でも、なんとかなりました。
ぐんぐん空に上がって空から見下ろす海は爽快でした！

Great trip. Up close to many sea turtles and great visibility.

This is my first time doing parasailing with a fear of height, so it is almost like a mission impossible, therefore, I chose the lowest height which is 300 feet. it turned out it was not scary at all, I thought i would felt uncomfortable when they lifted us up from the boat, but I didn't. it was very stable when we were up to the sky flying. When we came back, it was not like we were dropped to the water, we landed back on the boat. So for those who thought you would be dropped into water, that is not going to happen. So try this one, I recommend it to anyone who would like a great view of waikiki beach in the sky.

I floated slowly in the sky, feeling as if I were swimming. I can't forget the view of Waikiki from above.

ゆっくりと空に浮かび、まるで泳いでいるような感覚になりました。上から見下ろすワイキキの景色が忘れられません。

My first time paragliding. When I participated, it was just the two of us and a pair of Australian women, so there was no waiting time and everything went very smoothly. I was a bit anxious since it was a tour where Japanese wasn't spoken, but the staff and other guests were very friendly, so I had no difficulties. I chose the highest option for paragliding. There was no fear, it felt great, and I had a wonderful time.

人生初のパラセイリング。わたしが参加したときはオーストラリア女性２人組とわたしたちだけだったので、待ち時間もなくとてもスムーズでした。日本語が通じないツアーなので少し不安でしたが、係りの方たちもほかのお客さんもとてもフレンドリーで不自由はありませんでした。パラセイリングは一番高く上がるものにしました。怖さはなく気持ち良くて、素敵なひとときが過ごせました。

so friendly staffs and good boat
time was enough and additional photo option was good
(it worth !!)

This is a must do! I don't want to spoil it for you. The crew is Awesome & staff is very friendly. Must do if on Ohau!

The boat ride was extremely bumpy, and I got quite seasick. It was fun, but motion sickness medication is a must.

Also, if the service is good, I usually leave a tip on the way out, but I’ve noticed people conspicuously leaving $20 or $30 bills. Japanese people tend to feel obligated to leave a similar amount, but it’s not necessary to pay that much. A tip of around $2 to $3 is more than enough. Be careful not to feel pressured to tip excessively.

めちゃくちゃ船の運転が荒く、かなり船酔いしました。楽しかったですが、酔い止め必須です。
また、サービスがよければ帰り際にチップを置いていきますが、これ見よがしに20や30ドル札を置いています。日本人は気を遣って同じくらい置いてしまいますが、そんなに払う必要なし。せいぜい2～3程度で十分です。気を遣わないように注意。

This was a fantastic way to spend a couple hours. Snorkeling with turtles that were pretty fearless. A leisurely sail off of Waikiki. Great crew and the cutest dog ever. You may even get a chance to get up close and personal with an octopus. Highly recommended.

This was my second time attending Hawaiian Parasail in Honolulu and it wasn't as good as the first time. Everything was great as far as the actual para-sailing goes. Honestly, it felt rushed and not as excited for them to have a family of 8 for our trip. We did tip them and we don't regret it but I do wish that it felt more welcoming than it did.
But I would go again for a third time :D

I was filled with anxiety and excitement until I went sailing. I even thought about not going until the previous group sailed. However, seeing how much fun they were having made me decide to take on the challenge of sailing. My anxiety disappeared as I soared into the sky, and looking down at the ocean felt refreshing and uplifting. I am eager to challenge myself again, and next time, I want to aim even higher.

　セイリングするまで不安やらわくわく期待感でいっぱいでした。前の組がセイリングするまではやめようかと思ったくらいです。ところが前の組が余りにも楽しそうだったので決心しセイリングに挑みました。空に舞い上がるほどに不安感はとれ、海原を見下ろすと気持ちが良く爽快でした。また挑戦したい気持ちでいっぱいです。今度はより高く挑戦したいものです。

Sailing on the boat, it was the second sailing of four groups. Watching the previous group's sailing, I felt smaller and smaller, almost like I was floating in the sky, and my feelings shifted more towards anxiety than excitement. When the time came, I made up my mind and went sailing. Looking back, there’s nothing more thrilling and enjoyable than this. If I ever come back to Hawaii, this is the first experience I want to have again.

　船に揺られてセイリング現場まで、4組のうち2番目のセイリング。前の組のセイリングを見ていると、空に舞うほどに小さくなり期待より不安のほうが気持ちを占めるようになり、いざというとき決心しセイリング。終わってみてこんなに興奮、楽しいものは無い。ハワイにまた来るようなことがあれば真っ先にまた経験したい。

It was exciting & scary at the same time! The strong winds made the ascent heart stopping. But once we reached our intended height, it was so peaceful.

I would do it all over again.

This luau was very entertaining and food was delicious. It was very convenient being right at our hotel. The only thing I wish was that we could have tasted the alcohol in the Mai tai.

Enjoyed the turtle snorkel very much. We saw a couple of turtles. I would have rather continued snorkeling than having to stop so we could go sailing. But a great time in general! I would recommend this activity.

First of all, no one in our family speaks English. I can only convey about 20% of what I want to say (laughs).

Even with an English guide, we were particularly fine. As long as we didn't engage in any reckless behavior, there was no danger aside from natural disasters.

When we arrived at the snorkeling spot, a sea turtle appeared right away. Just being able to see it from the boat made me 80% satisfied, but I was also able to see it up close underwater.

The moment it came up for air was just a brief instant, so even if I spotted it from a distance, I wouldn't have made it in time. But it happened to come up nearby, and I hurried over. It was an emotional moment.

We foolishly brought our 2-year-old, 4-year-old, and 6-year-old with us, but the guides were always there to lend a hand when the kids came up, helping them back onto the boat and checking if they were okay.

The kids quickly got back on the boat, leaving dad as the babysitter.

I wanted to see the turtle one more time, but as everyone started to get out, it felt like it was coming to an end, so I decided to get back on the boat. I happened to tell the guide who was in the water, in broken English, "I wanted to swim with the turtle..." and he said, "Come on!" He was inviting me to come over to see it.

In that moment, I decided to forget about dad and the kids on the boat and hurried to follow him. He was clearly experienced and found a turtle on the ocean floor. But when I looked, it looked more like a rock than a turtle. Then he offered to lend me his camera. When I handed it over, he took pictures of the turtle on the ocean floor. (When I saw them later, they were really great photos!!)

Just as we were about to head back to the boat, another turtle appeared right in front of us! I had heard that touching them would incur a fine, but due to the waves, I almost touched it. To be able to see it at such a close distance was amazing! I was so thrilled.

Thanks to the guide's actions, we had the best experience. I am truly grateful.

For tips, there was a huge transparent bottle on the boat where we were supposed to put them, but I wanted to give him a personal tip. However, since there was a container for tips, even if I just handed him cash, I would still have to put some in the bottle, so I hesitated about giving him a partial amount... (this is where I felt like a typical unsure Japanese person...) In the end, I just put it in the bottle. I might have been better off giving him $10 or $20...

Thank you for a wonderful experience!!

最初に、我が家は誰も英語が話せません。しいていえば私が言いたいことの２０％ぐらいを伝えられる、という程度（笑）

英語のガイドですが、そんな我が家でも特に大丈夫でした。自然災害以外は、逸脱した行為をしなければ危険もありませんので。

シュノーケリングポイントについたとき、すぐに海亀が現れました。船上から見ることができて、もうそれだけで８０％満足した私ですが、なんと水中から間近に見ることもできました。

息継ぎにあがってくるのはほんの一瞬なので、遠くに発見しても泳いでも間に合いません。でもたまたま近くに上がってきて、急いで近寄りました。感動でした。

我が家は無謀にも２歳、４歳、６歳を連れての参加だったのですが、どの子があがるときにもガイドさんたちが手を差し伸べてくれて船に上げてくれたり、大丈夫か声をかけてくれたり。

子どもたちはすぐにあがってしまい、子守役にパパが船上に。

私はもう一度ぐらい亀に会いたいなぁと思いましたが、だんだんみんなが上がってしまって、もう終わりという雰囲気になったので、船上に上がろうとしました。たまたま海中にいたガイドさんに「亀と泳ぎたかったぁ・・・」と片言の英語で言ったら「カモーン！」と。見せてあげるからおいで、というのです。

もうその瞬間に船上にいるパパと子どもたちは忘れることにして、慌ててついていきました。さすがに慣れていて、海底にいる海亀を発見するのです。でも私が見ても亀というより岩。するとカメラを貸してごらんと。それで渡したら海底にいる亀を撮影してきてくれました。（あとで見たらすごく良い写真でした！！）

さて船に戻りましょう、というとき、たまたま目の前にまた亀が！！
触ったら罰金だと聞いていましたが、波のせいで触れてしまいそうでした。そんな距離で会えるなんて！！大感激しました。

ガイドさんの行為のおかげで、最高の体験ができました。本当に感謝です。

チップは船上にある透明の巨大なペットボトルみたいなものに入れるのですが、なんとなく彼には個人的にチップをはずませて差し上げたくて、でもチップの入れ物はあるし、彼にだけ渡してしまうにしても、そっちの容器にも入れるから全額渡すわけにもいかないし、でも中途半端な金額渡すのって変だし・・・と悩んでしまい（このへんが慣れない日本人ぽい・・・）結局ボトルに入れるだけにしてしまいました。彼に１０ドルでも２０ドルでも渡せば良かったかも・・・。

素晴らしい体験をありがとうございました！！

It was my first time parasailing, and I thought I might be a little scared before doing it. However, once I tried it, I was so moved by the breathtaking views that I didn't feel scared at all. It's highly recommended because you can't see the city of Waikiki and Diamond Head from the sea (or the sky) like this. I was completely satisfied even at 90 meters. It might be okay for those with a fear of heights.

You can take photos with your own camera while flying, so I didn't purchase the optional photos. Just be careful if you tend to get motion sickness since it's a boat ride.

Also, it was very nice that the pick-up car arrived at the hotel on time, which is rare in Hawaii. The driver, Mr. Yano, who is of Japanese descent, was very engaging and talked a lot to keep the atmosphere lively. It was great that there were more foreign participants than Japanese, as it made me feel like I was truly abroad.

初めてのパラセイリングだったので、やるまではちょっと怖いのかなと思っていました。でも、やってみたら絶景に感動で、怖いとは一切感じませんでした。海から（空から）ワイキキの街やダイヤモンドヘッドはなかなか見れないのでお勧めです。
90メートルでも充分満足です。高所恐怖症の人でも大丈夫かも。
飛びながら持参したカメラで写真を撮ったりもできるので、オプションの写真は購入しませんでした。
ただ、ボートでの移動なので、乗り物酔いする人は気をつけてください。
また、ハワイにしては珍しく、ホテルへ遅れることなくお迎えの車が来た点は非常に良かったです。運転手の日系人ヤノさんも、たくさん話をして盛り上げてくれました。
日本人より外国人の参加が多かったのも、海外に来ている感じが味わえてよかったです。

My mother and cousin experienced the 90M, while I did the 150M. The shuttle driver was also a very cheerful and funny person. My mother, who is somewhat afraid of heights, really enjoyed it. I was surprised when she said that she felt she could go even higher when it was over! The 150M is quite high, and even I, who usually handles heights well, felt a bit nervous when the wind picked up (laughs). The crew on the boat were friendly, and although they didn't speak much Japanese, we managed to communicate through feelings. The view of Honolulu was breathtaking, and I think it would be a lot of fun for families as well. By the way, we participated with the 2 PM pickup, and since we happened to be the only ones, we were able to take our time, which was lucky.

母といとこが90M、私は150Mを体験しました。
送迎のおじさんもとても愉快な人で面白かったです。
多少高所のある母もとても楽しんでいました。
終わった時にはもう少し高くまで行けそうwとまで言っていたのでびっくりしました。
150Mはなかなか高く、普段平気な私も風がふくと少しビビりました（笑）
船の方達も気さくな方で日本語はあまり話せませんがフィーリングでなんとかなります。
ホノルルの景色も絶景で、とても楽しくファミリーでもとても楽しめると思います。
ちなみに14時のPickUPで参加しましたが、たまたま私たちだけだったのでゆっくりできてそれもラッキーでした。

Superb experience, i recommend to all. Also to those who cannot dive and are afraid in to be in the close enviroment. You feel like in the airplane. Great speak of guide, wonderful view.

I used this service for the first time, and I was able to enjoy the best view even at a height of 110 meters!! The staff were cheerful and fun locals. However, if you are prone to seasickness, it might be a good idea to take medication in advance?? Also, don't forget to prepare a change of clothes!

初めて利用させて頂きましたが、高さ110メートルでも最高の景色が楽しめました!!スタッフも明るく楽しい現地の方でした。ただ船酔いをする方は事前に薬を飲んでいた方がよいかも??あと着替えも準備忘れずに!

It was my first time parasailing. I went with my husband and son, and it felt amazing. Since it was the first day of our tour in Hawaii, it really boosted our spirits. However, the bus pick-up did not arrive at the scheduled time, and when I called, they only spoke English. In the end, the bus arrived 45 minutes after the meeting time. I was quite anxious until then, so without that issue, it would have been a five-star experience.

パラセイルは初めてでした。主人と息子と3人で乗りました。とても気持ちよかったです。ハワイ一日目のツアーだったので、しっかりテンションがアップしました。
ただ、待ち合わせの時間になってもバスの迎えが来ず、電話をかけても英語しか通じないし、結局待ち合わせの時間より45分経ってバスが来ました。それまで不安でしたので、それが無ければ５つ星でした。

The staff was friendly, helpful and hospitable.
The snorkeling spot was perfect! We were able to swim inches from turtles, see all kinds of fish and the staff members brought an octopus and starfish to the surface for us to touch.
The sailing part afterwords was beautiful and the boat had a netted spot to sit in if you want to go on a Disneyland type splash ride.
The signature cocktail is delicious too!!
I can not recommend this enough!

The water was calm, the atmosphere was chill. The guides were all down to earth and funny. I would highly recommend these guys,and their Turtle Canyon Tour.

I wasn't sure where or how to pick up the commemorative photos we took, so I couldn't get them. Is it possible to have them sent to my home? I haven't received any emails from the tour company regarding this, so could you please inquire about it?

記念写真撮ったものをどこにどうやって取りに行けばいいのか分からずに手に入らなかったのですが自宅郵送で送ってもらうのは可能でしょうか？
催行会社からそれに関するメールが来ないので問い合わせて頂けないでしょうか？
