This experience for the price was amazing.
It was a submarine tour at 3 PM.
The visibility was quite clear, and I could see well.
There were also two turtles, and I was able to see many rare fish.
One issue was that the explanations were all in English, and even though there were Japanese headphones, they didn't work at all.
However, I enjoyed the scenery, so that was good!
I felt a bit seasick...
But it was really fun!!!!
この値段でこの体験は、最高だった。
夕方3時の潜水艦だった。
結構、クリアで、よく視界がみえた。
亀も2匹いたし、珍しい魚たちが、たくさん見ることができた。
一つ問題があったのは、説明が、全部英語で日本語のヘッドホンがあるにもかからわず全く流れなかった。
しかし風景をみて楽しかったから良かったかなー!!
少し船酔いがあった・・・・
しかし、とても楽しかった!!!!!

I was able to see the deep blue sea, colorful fish, and sea turtles, as well as many fish that I had never seen in Japan. Oh, and I also got to see divers (^^;) I was lucky enough to see a sea turtle swimming. It was something I had always wanted to see, so I was truly moved.
I'm really glad I participated in the submarine tour.
For participation, I recommend the Japanese tour starting at 10 AM. The explanations are provided in real-time, and there are many Japanese participants.
真っ青な海、カラフルな魚たち、そして海がめ、日本では見たこともない魚をたくさん見ることが出来ました。あ、あとダイバーも見ることが出来ました(^^;)
海がめは運良く、泳いでいるところを見ることが出来ました。念願だったので、本当に感動しました。
潜水艦ツアー、本当に参加して良かったです。
参加ですが、10時からの日本語のツアーをお勧めします。リアルタイムで説明していただけますし、参加者も日本人が多いですし。

I went to Hawaii for the first time. Since I can't dive, I thought this was the only way to experience the beautiful ocean in Hawaii, so I participated. The boat to the submarine does sway a bit, but I think it's manageable if you're mentally prepared. I recommend not eating too much for breakfast, and since the upper deck of the boat sways less, it's better to spend time on the second floor. I joined the Japanese tour at 10 AM. It was great because they explained the fish we saw at each spot, so I recommend this time for those who are not good at English. Under the sea, I was moved by the beautiful fish, the submarine, and the sea turtles. I'm really glad I participated.
はじめて、ハワイに行きました。
私はダイビングが出来ないので、ハワイの綺麗な海を体感できるには、これしかないと思い参加しました。
潜水艦に乗るまでの船は確かに揺れますが、心構えがあれば大丈夫と思います。
あまり朝食を食べ過ぎないことをお勧めします、後は船の上部の方が揺れないので、2階で時間をつぶした方がいいと思います。
私は、10時からの日本語ツアーに参加しました。やはり、その場その場で見れた魚を説明をしていただけるので、英語が得意でない人には、この時間をお勧めします。
海の中ですが、綺麗な魚や潜水艦、海がめなど色々見れて感動です。本当に参加して良かったと思います。

We boarded the boat and watched an explanatory video before heading out to separate into different submarines. However, it seemed that there was a problem with the submarine we were supposed to be on, and we were told to disembark immediately after getting on. For a moment, I couldn't grasp the situation. I was torn between getting a refund or rescheduling. After some hesitation, I decided to reschedule for the next day. The response during this time was very good. I'm glad I rescheduled because I had a lot of fun. I was able to see turtles, fish, and even a ship that sank during the war up close, which was fantastic. Unfortunately, the fish gathered mostly on the opposite side where I was sitting, so I missed seeing some of them. I felt like I had bad luck from the start this time. It can't be helped, but since my stay in Hawaii was short, I was disappointed about losing time and having my plans disrupted.
船に乗り、説明のビデオを見てから沖に出てそれぞれの潜水艦に分かれるのですが私達の乗る潜水艦がトラブルがあったらしく、乗ってすぐこのまま下船して下さいと。一瞬状況が把握出来ませんでした。このまま返金するか、予約を取り直すか。迷った挙句、次の日に取り直しました。この時の対応もとても良かったです。取り直して良かったと思う位、とても楽しめました。亀さんやお魚さん、戦争で沈んだ船なども真近で見れてとてもよかったです。たまたま自分が座った反対側ばかりにお魚さん達が集まり、見れなかったのもありました。今回は初めから運が悪かったんだなと思いました。しょうがないのですが短いハワイ滞在なので時間をロスしたのと予定がくるってしまったのが残念でした。

My first experience on a submarine was truly a parade of emotions. The view of daytime Waikiki Beach from the boat as we moved to the diving point, the pristine white submarine, and the cheerful staff were all wonderful. I believe we were moving with the propeller, but the inside was completely silent and comfortable, already giving me a sense of satisfaction before we even dove.
I have previously been on glass-bottom boats in various places in Japan, but this experience far exceeded my expectations in scale and impact. The vibrant, colorful fish welcomed us, and even the little child sitting next to me was thrilled. The highlight was encountering sea turtles, which I had only seen in aquariums. I was so captivated that I was counting them one by one.
I was surprised to find sea turtles in the waters of Waikiki. The clarity of the water in Waikiki was also astonishing. I participated with a light heart, but it turned out to be a highly satisfying submarine experience. Thank you very much.
潜水艦に初めて乗ったこと・・・実に感動のオンパレードでした。
潜水ポイントまで移動する船上から見えた昼間のワイキキビーチの景観、
清潔に手入れされた真っ白な潜水艦と陽気なスタッフのみなさん、
スクリューで進んでいると思いますが音も全く聞こえない静かで快適な艦内、
潜っていくまでにすでにこんな満足感を味わいました。
今まで日本の各地でグラスボートに乗って船底から海中を覗いたことがありますが、スケールといい迫力といい私の想像をはるかに超えるものでした。
原色鮮やかな魚達のお出迎えに隣の席に座ってた小さな子も大ハシャギです。
圧巻は水族館でしか見たことが無かった海亀に遭遇できたことです。その数一匹二匹三匹・・と夢中で数えていたのでした。
ワイキキの海に海亀がいるなんて驚きでした。
ワイキキの海の透明度にも驚きでした。
軽い気持ちで参加しましたが大満足の潜水艦体験でした。有難うございました。

This was my first time participating on my seventh trip to Hawaii. I took motion sickness medication based on the reviews I read, which really helped since the boat rocked quite a bit. I was able to board the submarine safely, and I was truly amazed by the beauty of the ocean and the abundance of fish. We even saw seven sea turtles, and my family was thrilled. This became our best memory. Thank you!
ハワイ7回目にして初めて参加しました。書き込みを参考にして酔い止めのお薬を飲んだのが功を奏して大きく船が揺れましたが、無事に潜水艦に乗れ、なんといっても海のきれいさと魚たちが沢山見れて感動でした。海がめも7匹見れて家族で大騒ぎ。一番の思い出となりました。ありがとうございます。

This is my 15th trip to Hawaii. I had participated in various activities, and the excitement was starting to fade. I had never joined the Atlantis Submarine due to concerns about seasickness, but this time I decided to give it a try. The pickup time was accurate, and while waiting for the boat to the submarine at the Hilton dock, the staff engaged us in conversation, making the wait enjoyable. On the day of the trip, the wind was strong, and the boat rocked quite a bit, but I didn't experience any seasickness and safely arrived at the submarine. Finally, it was time to board the submarine. Recently, perhaps due to getting older, I hadn't felt that thrill of excitement, but as I climbed the ladder from the deck into the submarine, I experienced a sense of wonder like I did as a child. Finally, we submerged. At first, the surface of the water was sparkling and beautiful, and then I was amazed at how blue the ocean was. I was able to see many sea turtles, sharks, and tropical fish, and I was very satisfied.
ハワイ旅行も今回で15回目。いろいろアクティビティにも参加して、感動が薄れていました。アトランティス潜水艦は、船酔いの心配もあって今まで参加していなかったのですが、今回思い切って参加してみました。ピックアップの時間も正確で、潜水艦にいくまでの船を待つヒルトンの桟橋でも、スタッフの方がいろいろと話し掛けて来てくれて、待ち時間も退屈しないで楽しめました。当日は風が強く、結構船が揺れたのですが船酔いも無く無事に潜水艦につきました。いよいよ潜水艦に乗船です。最近、年をとったせいか、ドキドキするという感動がなかったのですが、甲板からタラップをつたい潜水艦の中に入るときは、子供の頃のようにわくわくする思いを体験できました。いよいよ潜水です。最初、水面が光り輝いて大変綺麗で、次に海の中がこれほどに青いのにビックリいたしました。海がめやサメ、トロピカルな魚たちも沢山見ることが出来て大満足です。

I boarded the Atlantis submarine at 10:00. Due to jet lag and the bus's bumpy ride, I felt a bit seasick, but I was first moved by the wonderful views of Waikiki Beach and Diamond Head from the sea, and I truly felt glad to have come to Hawaii and to have participated in this experience. Once I got on the submarine, I was surprised to find that it was quite spacious and had enough room for everyone to enjoy the ride. As we dove down, I was amazed by the many beautiful fish, the artificial reef, and even an airplane and a ship—it felt like a scene from a movie, and it left a strong impression on me. Most of all, I was thrilled to encounter a sea turtle. The kids were overjoyed and were having a blast. Time flew by, and they kept saying they wanted to see more. When we got off the submarine and returned to the boat, the strangers we had been with said, "Did you see that? It was amazing! I got a picture!" and "I saw a turtle!" We felt like we had become friends. It was incredibly fun, and I truly think it was great. I took a commemorative photo for $20, but I didn't receive it. I hope to get it next time. Thank you for this precious memory.
アトランティス潜水艦に10:00の日本語に乗りました、時差ぼけと、ピックアップのバスの揺れとで、ちょっと船酔いになってしまいましたが、海の上から見るワイキキビーチやダイヤモンドヘッドのすばらしい景色にまず感動し、ハワイに来てよかったと思い、参加してよかったと本当におもいました。いざ潜水艦に乗りこむと、意外と中は広く十分なスペースで傍聴できることがわかりました。もぐってすぐ、たくさんのきれいな魚たちや人工のあさひ化成・・や飛行機、船など、ちょっとした映画のワンシーンかと思うくらい、すばらしく印象にすごくのこりました。何といっても海がめに出会えることができたのが、感動でした。こども大よろこびで、はしゃぎまくっていました。時間はあっという間で、もっと見たいを連発でした。潜水艦を降りて船に戻ると、今までいっしょに乗っていた知らない人たちが、「みたーすごいよね!・写真とれたー」「かめ見た、かめ!」って、話しかけてくれて、仲間みたいになれました。非常に楽しく、本当によかったと思います。。$20だという記念写真は、撮ったけれど手元にはきませんでした。これは、次回に取得したいと思います。大切な記念をありがとうございました。

I went on a submarine (^^) and it was so much fun!! Since I can't swim, the underwater world was a mystery to me! I was so excited to board. I never expected to see so many fish, and it was truly a wonderful time. The schools of fish and their natural behaviors are things you can only feel when you enter their world. There were even fish that came right up to the window, which was moving. What impressed me the most was that there were five sea turtles at the sunken reef! Even with so many people around, I got so excited that I shouted "turtle, turtle!" Afterward, I felt a bit embarrassed! This was truly a valuable experience for me. I especially recommend it for those who, like me, can't swim. You can enjoy the feeling of being a diver without any practice (^^). You can experience a different sensation than at an aquarium. It was so much fun!
潜水艦乗って来ました(^^)すごく楽しかった!!
私は泳ぐことが出来ないので、海の中は未知の世界!ドキドキして乗り込みました。あんなに沢山の魚を見られるとは思っても居なかったので、本当に楽しい時間でした。水族館では見られないような魚の群れや、魚の自然な姿などこれって自分達が魚の世界に入って行かないと感じられないものですよね。ときどき窓のすぐそばまで来てくれる魚までいて感動でした。その中でなんと言っても感動したのが、[海がめ]船を沈めた漁礁になんと5匹・・かめって5頭かな??もいたんです。まわりに沢山の人達がいるのに大興奮して「かめ・かめ」と大騒ぎしてしまいました。あとから考えると、ちょっと恥ずかしかった!今回は本当に貴重な体験をさせて頂きました。私のように泳げない人には、特におすすめします。だって練習もしないでダイバー気分を味わえるんですから(^^)。水族館とは違う感覚を味わえますよ。とても楽しかったです。

It was really great. I was a bit anxious because it seemed like the previous group canceled just before boarding, but still, I was able to see Waikiki Beach and Diamond Head from above the ocean. It was a bit bumpy, but it was truly beautiful and left a lasting impression. When we moved to the submarine, I wondered if we would really dive, but I was amazed to see that we reached the seabed in no time. The sea turtles above the Asahi Kasei, the airplane, and the ship all felt like something out of a fairy tale, and I was completely captivated. I even forgot that I had a child next to me, and at the end, when I heard the comment about this... I came back to my senses and said, "It's beautiful." I was always intrigued. It was interesting. My child was also very happy and seemed to feel a strange sensation being underwater. Thank you for this truly valuable experience. Lastly, it was amusing to see the captain wearing headphones while diving, waving his hands and flapping his feet to the rap music.

I had surfed a few times before with previous lessons but never with this company. My boyfriend had never surfed before. We were picked up more or less on time by the driver, driven to the surf shop, and introduced quickly to our teacher, Ivan, a lovely man who has lived in Oahu over 20 years. He gave us our gear, including two massive boards that we toted to the beach. We then had a lesson on the sand for about 15 minutes, then out to sea!
We enjoyed the surfing, though I was a bit afraid of the waves and thus Ivan toned it down until I was confident. Once I was, though, he took us out to where regulars were surfing, and we did more or less okay!
Our lesson was 2 hours long, and we are both in 8 out of 10 shape, but were both POOPED by then end - so I recommend that you keep the lesson length in mind with your own fitness!
I absoultely recommend no more than 2 or at most 3 people to an instructor so that noone holds the group back.

I rode a submarine for the first time. At first, I wasn't very enthusiastic about it, but once I got on, I surprisingly felt like a kid again, even as an adult. There were six of us participating, and just like others mentioned, none of us experienced seasickness, allowing us to enjoy the underwater world. I didn't expect that such a large submarine would have fish coming so close to us, so it was a very valuable experience. However, since we went straight to this optional activity after arriving in Hawaii, everyone ended up falling asleep towards the end. Next time, I want to participate with more leisure.
初めて潜水艦に乗りました。始めはあまり乗り気ではなかったのですが、乗ってみると意外と大人でも子供に戻るものなんですね。6人で参加したのですが、皆さんが書かれていたような船酔いも誰一人もなく海の世界を見ることができました。あんなに大きな潜水艦なのに、直ぐ近くまで魚達が寄ってくるとは思っていませんでしたので、とても貴重な体験でした。しかし今回はハワイに着いた足でそのまま、今回のオプショナルに参加したせいか、みんな最後の方には、寝てしまっていました。次回はもっと余裕を持って参加したいものです。

Some friends and I got together to attend the Royal Hawaiian Luau at the large beautiful pink hotel of Waikiki and it was great. We were greeted with beautiful orchid flower leis at the entrance of the luau by the performers and immediately served a welcome mai tai. The whole setting of the feast was decorated with class and Oh-My-Goodness, the beach and the sunset was perfect to capture a photographic memory.
The host of the show did not waste anytime in welcoming all the guests preparing us for a wonderful feast and show. The food was delicious. There were several isles of Honolulu's most popular food and desert and lets not forget the huge roasted pig that everyone looked eager to taste. The Polynesian performers were brilliant. They were graceful, energetic, and very entertaining. They got the audience involved and let visitors get an experience their first hukilau and Tahitian dancing. The Polynesian performers were awesome and very energetic. They really put on a great show.

The submarine itself was stable and reassuring.
However, I was a bit disappointed that there were fewer fish than I expected. But it was worth it because my mother was happy.

The buffet lines were groaning under the weight of all of the delicacies and the tables were laden with a bounty of food. There were tossed, macaroni and shrimp salads, an incredibly yummy fruit salad mixed with haupia, a perfect lomi-lomi salmon (not too salty like how a lot of places make it), some kalua pork which was insanely juicy, of course there was some of the ever-popular mahi-mahi, and my favorite, teriyaki beef that just melted in my mouth! I kept going back for more and even though I was stuffed, I still had enough room for dessert, and thank goodness for that.

This was my first experience on a submarine, and the tour is designed in such a way that even those who can't scuba dive or snorkel can fully appreciate the beauty and mystery of the underwater world. It starts off slowly and gradually, but right after submerging, the view of the shimmering water surface from below is stunningly beautiful. At times, it feels so mystical that you might even question whether you're underwater or in the sky, with colorful fish that seem to be flying.
There are also areas where boats and planes serve as artificial reefs, and you can see a particularly wide variety of fish there. While I didn't see any sharks, I was able to spot sea turtles quite well. The guide's Japanese was entertaining, and the pamphlet provided for following along with the live commentary was clear and well-made.
One thing to note is that the shuttle ride to board the submarine can make you feel seasick, so if you're worried about that, it's a good idea to bring motion sickness medication. Also, the air conditioning inside the submarine is very effective (especially at your feet), so I recommend using the restroom before boarding and wearing pants instead of shorts.
潜水艦は初めてでしたが、スキューバやシュノーケルが出来ない人でも海の中の美しさや神秘さまでもが充分に伝わるツアーになっていますよ。段階的にゆっくりと始まるのですが、沈んだ直後に海中から見える水面がきらきらと美しく、途中ここは海なのか空なのか錯覚するくらいに神秘的で、色とりどりの魚たちがまるで空を飛んでいるようにも感じる時が何度もありました。
船や飛行機が人工のサンゴ礁の変わりになっているところもあり、そこでは特にたくさんの種類の魚たちが見ることが出来ます。サメは見られませんでしたが海亀もしっかりと見ることが出来ました。ガイドの方の日本語がおもしろおかしく、ライブ中継を聞きながら確認できるように配られたパンプレットもわかりやすくよく出来ていました。注意点としては、潜水艦に乗り込むまでのシャトルで船酔いしそうになるので心配な方は酔い止めを用意したほうがいいことと、潜水艦内の冷房が大変よく利いている(特に足元)ので、潜水艦乗船前のシャトルではトイレは済ませ短パンではなくズボンを履いていったほうがいいと思います。

I think it can be enjoyed by anyone, regardless of age. It's safe, and the explanations and guidance are provided in a thorough manner, so I think it's better to have a Japanese guide. The interior of the ship was not as cramped as I had imagined, and I didn't feel concerned about my neighbors. I was able to see rays swimming gracefully and many turtles in the relaxed sea. As a note, since there are steep stairs to go up and down, it's advisable for women to wear pants. If you are prone to seasickness, it's definitely better to take motion sickness medication.
年齢問わず誰にでも楽しめると思います。安全ですし。説明や案内も丁寧にしてくれくるので日本語ガイドの時がいいと思います。艦内は思っていたよりも狭くなく、隣が気になるような事はありませんでした。エイが優雅に泳いでいたり亀が沢山いたりゆったりとした海の中を見る事ができました。注意事項としては急な階段を上り下りなので女性はズボン着用が望ましいです。船酔いする方は酔い止めは必ず飲まれたほうがいいですよ。
