What an amazing way to culturally connect with the indigenous peoples of Hawaii by sailing the beautiful waters like how our ancestors did. Amazing stories, singing, food and interactive activities and seeing the dolphins and honu (turtles) swimming alongside our wa’a (waka/ boat) was magical! We were well looked after and thoroughly enjoyed the friendly and relaxed hospitality. Definitely recommend this to people who are looking for an authentic, educational and fun experience of Hawaii. Mahalo!

This was fantastic, more than we expected! Great food, drink, music, crew!
Never had so much fun! The entire trip was outstanding. The sunset was amazing! The sailing out of this world. Everyone was enjoying themselves immensly. We even saw a dolphin swimming along side us. Perfect night. I'd recommend this highly, 10+
Next time we are back in Oahu, we will definitely do this again!
Thanks again for an amazing, awesome time.

I took my daughter and her fiancé on this adventure for an early Christmas gift. The boat was clean, the crew friendly and fun, and the whole experience felt very safe.
The take-off and landing were so smooth and easy. The views from 1000 feet up were breathtaking!
The crew took lots of pictures that you could purchase for $40–they downloaded the photos to my phone and also gave me the SD card. Definitely worth it! We will do this again!

Parasailing in the dreamlike Waikiki was more thrilling than I expected! The staff was full of happy energy and high spirits, and even if your English is limited, it’s not much of a problem. They bring out various items and turn up the music to enhance the fun.
A sense of camaraderie developed with others on the same boat, and after the flight, we exchanged applause. It was incredibly hot with strong sunlight, but be careful as you have to take off your hat when flying. I kept mine on until the last moment. Still, it was an experience worth trying.
【About Luggage】
There’s no place to store valuables, so you have to shove your bags under the benches on the boat. I tackled it with a smartphone case that could hold tips and a credit card around my neck. Since my hotel was far away, I used a coin locker on the Hilton Lagoon side for my other valuables (it’s quite expensive though).
【Credit Card】
You need cash or a card to buy the photo data, but JCB is not accepted! Please be aware of this. (I even went all the way to the locker to get mine.)
憧れのワイキキでのパラセーリング。
思った以上に高くて楽しかったです!!スタッフはハッピーオーラ満開でハイテンション、英語が片言でもあまり問題はありません。いろんなアイテムを出したり、音楽のボリュームを上げて、楽しさを演出してくれます。
同じ船に乗った方ともなんとなーくの一体感が生まれ、フライトの後はお互い拍手を送り合ってみたり
とにかく暑くて日差しが強いけど、飛ぶ時は帽子は取らなければなりませんのでご注意を私は飛ぶギリギリまでかぶってました
それでもやってみる価値ありの体験でした。
【荷物について】
貴重品の預かり所はなく、荷物はボートのベンチの下に突っ込むしかありません。私はチップとクレジットカードが入るスマホケースを首からかけて挑みました。ホテルが遠かったのもあり、その他の貴重品はヒルトンのラグーン側にあるコインロッカーを使いました。(めちゃくちゃ高いけど)
【クレジットカード】
写真のデータを買うのに現金かカードが必要ですが、JCBが使えません!ご注意ください。(私はわざわざロッカーまで取りに行きました)

Sehr schöne Tour, Moana Team nett, kompetent, freundlich. Man sieht viele Schildkröten. Aber, der Spot vor Waikiki ist overcrowded, viele Auslugsboote kommen dorthin, mit ebenso vielen anderen Schnorchlern. Leider sind nicht alle rücksichtvoll und halten sich an die Regeln (dont touch the turtles, keep distance). Wenn das so weitergeht kann man drauf warten, dass der Spot zum Schutz der turtles geschlossen werden wird :-(

**[Paragliding Experience Flow]**
- Reserved for the 9:00 session.
- Since it was said to gather 15 minutes before the check-in time (8:30) when walking, I arrived at 8:15.
- After writing my name on the consent form, I was told I could return here by 8:40, so I took photos at the harbor, applied sunscreen, and waited while taking motion sickness medication.
- At 8:50, we boarded the boat and took 15 minutes to reach the point. During that time, we put on life jackets and were asked if we wanted to take photos for $40.
- Starting from 9:05, each group began paragliding. We flew for about 10 minutes. When I requested photos, they took quite a few before and during the flight (I counted over 100, and the quality was quite good).
- Paragliding while enjoying the beautiful sea, sky, islands, and Diamond Head was amazing. It was stable and not scary at all, and occasionally they made it a bit bumpy for fun, so the 10 minutes flew by. At the end, when we were picked up by the boat, I was submerged in the sea up to my chest.
- It seems that a certain speed of the boat is necessary to maintain the height of 150m, so it swayed normally. Since we had to wait on the boat during other participants' paragliding, I think it’s better for those prone to seasickness to take motion sickness medication. Even though I rarely get seasick, I took some just in case, but towards the end, I felt a bit nauseous.
- Finished at 9:50. Those who didn’t request photos could leave directly. Those who did went to the check-in area, checked the photos taken, and paid $40. They transferred the data to my iPhone and also gave me an SD card.
**[Impressions]**
While on the boat, there was fun music playing the whole time, the scenery was beautiful, and the staff were kind and spoke a little Japanese, so just being on the boat was really enjoyable. It became a wonderful memory, and I’m glad I had the experience!
【パラセーリング体験の流れ】
・9:00の回で予約
・徒歩の場合、チェックイン時間(8:30)の15分前集合ということだったので、8:15に到着。
・同意書に名前記入したら、8:40までにここに戻ってこればいいよ、と言われてハーバーで写真撮ったり日焼け止め塗ったり、酔い止め飲んで待ち。
・8:50に船に乗り込み15分かけてポイントに到着。その間に、ライフジャケット着たり、写真撮影40ドルでやるかどうか聞かれる。
・9:05から1組ずつパラセーリング開始。だいたい10分くらい飛んでいたかな。写真撮影頼んだら、飛ぶ前から飛んでる最中、かなり撮ってくれた。(数えたら100枚以上あった、画質もかなりいい)
・綺麗な海、空、島、ダイヤモンドヘッドを眺めながらパラセーリング。安定していて怖くないし、たまに楽しませるためにぐわんぐわんしてくれて、10分間あっという間だった。最後、船に回収される時、胸くらいまで海に浸かった。
・150mの高さを保つためにはある程度の船の速度も必要みたいで普通に揺れる。他の参加者のパラセーリング中ずっと船で待機なので船酔いする人は酔い止め飲んだ方がいいと思う。めったに酔わない私も念の為に飲んだけど、最後らへん少し気持ち悪くなった。
・9:50に終了。写真撮影頼んでない人はそのまま帰る。頼んだ人はチェックインしたところに行き、撮ってもらった写真ぱらぱらと確認し40ドル支払う。iPhoneを渡してデータ移行してくれてSDカードもくれる。
【感想】
船に乗ってる間、ずっと楽しい音楽流れてるし、景色も綺麗だし係の人たちも優しくて日本語少し喋れるから、本当に船乗っているだけでも楽しかった。とってもいい思い出になって体験できてよかった!

It was my first time back in Hawaii in three years, and my first time participating in this cruise in three years as well. The weather was probably the best I've ever experienced. The ocean seemed to be clearer than before. Wearing masks is optional. If you're concerned, it might be a good idea to bring your own mask and snorkel. Prices have gone up compared to before, but the easy snorkeling off Waikiki and the enjoyable cruising experience are worth it.
3年ぶりのハワイ、3年ぶりのこのクルーズへの参加でした。今までで多分1番のお天気。海がキレイになったような気がします。マスク着用は自由です。気になる方はマイマスク、シュノーケル持参がいいかもしれません。以前と比べて値上がっていますが、ワイキキ沖でのお手軽シュノーケル、気持ちいいクルージングは価値ありです。

We arrived early so the receptionist said they could fit us in sooner than our appointment so we agreed. It was fine at first once we got on the boat but my excitement started to fade once he started fitting me for my harness. I am a plus size female but the harness “fitted” to me was way too big. It won’t be apparent until we’re in the air, unfortunately. I did the experience with my mom since we came to Hawaii for her 55th birthday. Once in the air, it was very obvious my harness was way too big. If I didn’t hold on for dear life, I would’ve probably fallen back. I didn’t feel safe or secure. The whole experience caused me undue stress & anxiety especially since we were at 1000 feet. The guys on the boat were nice, no complaints about them except for the fact they dipped the other participants 3 or 4 times while they only dipped us once in the ocean. When we docked, I told the receptionist & she dismissed my concern. Not happy with the harness sizing; the one dip in the ocean AND how my concern was handled. I wouldn’t recommend this company. Go with another company!

So fun! This is one of my favorite boats. I liked that it had a covered cabin area for those who wanted to get out of the sun for a bit. The start time mid-morning was great to have a bit of a sleep-in. We headed out to Turtle Canyon, about 5-10 minutes sail from the shoreline. The snorkel gear and fins were good quality and we saw TONS of turtles!! After snorkeling for about an hour, the crew sailed the Waikiki coastline to Diamond Head and we had lunch while we sailed. This one also comes with 2 drinks. The boat was pretty spacious so we had room to move around. Overall, great experiences & great crew!!

100ft underwater. We saw turtles, fish, sunken ships, and sunken planes! Visibility on the day we went was crystal clear and we took tons of photos. I went with my good friend and she brought her 4-year-old. He absolutely loved it!! One thing though, the shuttle boat from shore to the submarine drop zone can be really windy. I packed a jacket which the kiddo was glad that I need since it got a little breezy. Once we were in the submarine, it's fully air-conditioned so I'd have a light jacket if you get cold easily.

Yes, it's early. But, we LOVED the early sail. Less boats on the water and calmer ocean conditions. If you're looking for a unique cultural experience, this is it. We did the morning cruise and were the only 2 guests on the boat which was really cool. The boat limits capacity to 6-guests. As a local resident, I really liked how the two main hosts of the cultural experience and the Captain were Kamehameha graduates. This boat also offers midday cruises and sunset. Overall, the morning sail was calm and one of the truly unique sails here on Oahu.

We made a reservation with my husband for our honeymoon trip.
Although the explanation was in English, I was able to participate without any issues by using gestures and observing other guests.
There were 10 of us in total, including my husband and me, and everyone was very friendly, making it a lot of fun!
While other guests were parasailing, the boat rocked quite a bit, so if you're feeling uneasy, I recommend taking motion sickness medication!
The photos were $40.00, but I declined because the reviews from others weren't very good.
The scenery was absolutely amazing, and I was moved by the sense of openness and the views that I had never experienced before!

Honestly, I was a bit nervous about learning how to surf. My partner really wanted to try and we set up time with the Ohana Surf Project; let me tell you, it was worth it. The team at Ohana Surf Project are knowledgeable, fun and super helpful. They teach you all the fundamentals, make you feel comfortable in the water and are with you every step of the way. Kevin and Romeo were incredibly patient and friendly, especially for someone uncoordinated like me. If you’re telling yourself that you couldn’t do this, you can, and they can show you. They took someone like me, who can barely tie my shoes without falling over, and put me up on a board surfing a wave. If you’re reading this review trying to find the best team to help you, look no further, just book it!
Mahalo Ohana Surf Project!
