I made a reservation for the daytime course. It was good that I could see things from a distance several times. However, the guidance for the boarding area was not clear, and everyone participating was looking for it. This point needs improvement.

昼間のコースに予約。何回か遠くに見ることはできたのでよかった。乗り場の案内がはっきりしていなくて、参加の皆様も探している状況でした。この点は改善が必要。

It's cheap and good, but preparation is necessary. 安くて良いですが、準備が必要

Reviewed by: さかな

This is a plan for an easy sunset cruising experience. The departure is from the back of the Prince Hotel. There’s a trolley stop nearby, making it convenient.

While Japanese is not spoken, it’s fine to ask questions as needed. You can wait comfortably at a nearby food stall area until departure. There are also restrooms available.

The safety agreement can be completed in advance or you can scan a QR code on-site. The page is in English, but it’s not too difficult, so it should take about 10 minutes to finish. You can complete it for your children as well.

The boat is a larger catamaran, and there is a restroom on board. Drinks can be purchased at the bar counter on the boat, but there is no food available.

After about 40 minutes out at sea, you will stop to wait for the sunset. During this time, everyone can jump into the water and have fun. Life jackets and floatation devices (the kind used in swimming classes) are available, but there are only a few and they are old.

■Preparation: If you want to enjoy yourself, be sure to bring floaties, snorkeling gear, etc. Also, as it can get cool (even chilly) on the boat when the sun sets, it’s essential to have a towel to dry off and a jacket. Regarding drinks, generally, outside drinks are not allowed, but it seems okay to sneak in a water bottle or something easy to consume (it’s not as strict as in Japan).

手軽なサンセットクルージングが出来るプランです。出航はプリンスホテルの裏側から。トロリーも近くに止まるので便利です。
日本語は通じませんが、適当に聞いておけばOKです。出航までは隣にある屋台村みたいなところで座って待っていれば大丈夫。トイレもあります。
安全の合意書は事前でもいいですし、その場でQRを読み込めんでも対応可能です。英語のページですが、そんなに難しくもないので10分くらいで完了。子供の分もセットで完了できます。
船は大きめの双胴船（ボート）です。中にトイレがあります。飲み物は船内のバーカウンターで購入可能。食べ物は基本ありません。
沖に出て40分くらい、夕日を待ちながら停留します。その間に皆、海の飛び込んで遊びます。一応、ライフジャケットと浮き具（水泳教室で使うような紐で括り付けるやつ）はありますが、数も少なく、古いです。
■準備：きちんと遊びたいなら、浮き輪、シュノーケリングセットなどをしっかりと持っていってください。また、日が落ちてくると船上は夏でも涼しい（寒いくらい）になることもおおいため、体を拭くタオルはもちろん、上着も必須です。飲み物については、基本は持ち込み不可ですが、カバンにペットボトルを忍ばせる、簡単に口にほうり込めるものを忍ばせるのは大丈夫そうです（日本ほどうるさくない）

I was able to fully enjoy the ocean in Hawaii! ハワイの海を堪能できました！

Reviewed by: 世界の旅人

It was a cruise where we went out to sea while listening to music and then returned. It was quite hot under the strong sun while the sun was high, but it became chilly as it set, so a jacket was necessary. Along the way, the boat stopped, and quite a few people jumped into the sea. Since there were many foreigners on the cruise, the atmosphere was lively and fun!

We went quite far out, and we could see the scenery beyond Diamond Head. However, it gets pretty bumpy out there, so I think it's safer to take motion sickness medication.

I heard that you need to fill out a waiver online in advance, but I didn't receive the email, and when I tried to scan the QR code on-site, it didn't work well either. I had printed the waiver and brought it with me, so I was fine, but for those who don't receive the email, I recommend contacting them in advance or bringing a paper copy.

音楽を流しながら沖まで行って帰ってくるクルーズでした。陽が高いうちは日差しが強く暑かったですが、沈んでくると肌寒く上着が必要でした。途中、船を停めてくれるので、海に飛び込んでいる人も結構いました。外国人が多いクルーズなので、テンションは高く楽しかったです！
結構遠くの方まで行くので、ダイヤモンドベッドを超えた辺りの景色まで見ることができました。
ただ沖の方は結構揺れるので、酔い止めを飲んでおいた方が安心かと思います。
事前に誓約書をwebで記載するそうなのですが、メールでくるはずが私は届かず、現地でQRコードを読み込んで試しましたがそれも上手くできませんでした。私は誓約書を印刷して持って行っていたので、それで事なきを得ましたが、メールが届かない方は事前に問い合わせるか、紙で持参すると良いと思います。

A trip to Hawaii with my elderly parents and two grandchildren. We signed up for a boat tour as one of the attractions since it was close to our hotel. The view of Waikiki from the boat was exceptional. Along the way, the captain brought us to an area where we could see sea turtles and dolphins, which was so exciting. We also got to dive into the ocean from the boat. Finally, the captain allowed me to take the helm, and I was on cloud nine. I plan to try again in 2024.

You can enjoy a panoramic view of Waikiki Beach and Diamond Head from the sea, and the sunset was wonderful. The staff were experienced and had great conversations! There is a bar on board where you can enjoy beer and cocktails, and free snacks are also available!

The boat stops offshore at the beautiful Waikiki Beach, where you can see fish from the surface, allowing for snorkeling and jumping in the water! Free floatation devices are also available for rent!

Not only can you enjoy the sunset, but there are activities to enjoy during the time leading up to it, making this tour a great value for the price! The guide only spoke English, and there were no other Japanese people besides us, so I think some basic English for communication is essential.

Also, depending on the day, the wind can be strong, and the boat can sway quite a bit, so be cautious of seasickness. I'm not usually prone to it, but I felt a little queasy.

Overall, I highly recommend this tour!

案内は英語のみ、私たち以外に日本人はいなかったので、コミュニケーションがとれるくらいの英語は必須かなと思います。

2-Hour Waikiki Sunset Sail & Swim Experience - Three Tiki Catamaran Cruise

Family-friendly, magical and fun

Reviewed by: Cheryl

Our experience aboard the Three Tiki Catamaran was nothing short of magical! From the moment we stepped on board, we were greeted with warmth and hospitality by the incredibly kind staff. I was nervous having a toddler but everyone assured us our son was welcomed. They even had a place store our stroller.

One of the first things that struck us was how immaculately clean the boat was. It was evident that cleanliness and hygiene were top priorities for the crew.

The ride itself was an absolute blast! Having never been on a catamaran, it did not disappoint! As we cruised along, we were treated to breathtaking views of the sunset casting its warm hues over the Honolulu skyline, with the iconic silhouette of Diamond Head in the background. We even got to anchor and jump into the ocean.

What truly made the experience unforgettable was how family-friendly it was. The crew went above and beyond to ensure my little one was comfortable even though he was crying. They were so incredibly nice!

Overall, our time aboard the Three Tiki Catamaran was an absolute delight. We can't recommend it enough for families looking to create unforgettable memories in the stunning backdrop of Honolulu. Thank you to the wonderful staff for making our experience so memorable!

We anchored offshore until sunset and dived from the boat. Participants jumped in one after another, boldly and without hesitation, doing flips and more. Both the bikini-clad ladies and the older gentlemen with floaties joined in. It felt like a party with lively music playing.

While there were many people who didn't dive, just watching was exciting and a lot of fun. My son, who is a good swimmer, mustered up the courage to do a commemorative dive.

There were no other Japanese people, but there were no feelings of discomfort or issues at all. As long as you fill out the application form diligently, you'll be fine. There's no obligation to purchase unnecessary drinks. The parking lot is hard to find. You can walk from Waikiki. If you want to snorkel, make sure to bring your own gear, as they mentioned there are no rentals available for sunset.

Pay attention to the meeting place. 集合場所に注意

Reviewed by: ワハハ

I had a reservation for the last event of the season on April 15, 2024, but due to rain, the boat could not go out. I was contacted and given the option to reschedule for another day or receive a refund. Since I had some flexibility in my itinerary, I requested to reschedule for April 16 if possible, and they agreed to operate the boat on that day as well!

I wanted my 2-year-old son, who loves whales and dolphins, to see these natural creatures, so I rescheduled. On the day of the trip, it was sunny and we were able to set sail, and we saw both whales and dolphins, which was wonderful! The English guide provided thorough information, and it was an interesting experience!

However, be careful as the address for the meeting point provided in the voucher and on the website was incorrect. If you rely on the address, you will end up at the far end of the harbor. The correct meeting point is at Pink Sails Waikiki, which you can find by searching; it’s located just before the harbor, where you turn right at the first road (with hotels on your right and continuing straight past the boats on your left). If you are traveling with small children, it can be quite a hassle, so please be cautious!

今季最後の開催日である2024/4/15に予約をしていましたが、雨天で船が出せないことに。別日に振替か返金かを選べると連絡がありました。
旅程に余裕があったため、可能なら4/16に振り替えたいと連絡すると、予定になかった4/16も船を出してくれることに！
クジラとイルカが好きな2歳の息子に自然の生き物を見せたかったので、振り替えました。当日は無事に晴れて出航できたし、クジラもイルカも見られてとてもよかったです！
英語ガイドも丁寧な内容で、興味深い体験が出来ました！

ただ、バウチャーやべるとら上で事前に連絡されていた集合場所の住所が違っていたので要注意です。
住所を頼りに行くと、ハーバーの一番奥に到着してしまいます。正しい集合場所はピンクセイルズワイキキで検索して出てくる、ハーバーの1番手前の道を右に曲がったところ（右手にホテル郡、左に船を見て真っ直ぐ進んだ先）です。
小さいお子さん連れの場合、かなりの労力を浪費することになるのでご注意ください！

I was able to see a pod of dolphins swimming alongside us for a long time. The whales were quite elusive, but we managed to spot one in the distance after continuing to move the boat. It seems that there are significant differences in sightings depending on the day.

Along with sunscreen, motion sickness medication is essential. When heading out to search for whales, the waves can be quite rough, and it can be pretty scary until you get used to it. There were even children who fell inside the boat. The guide was speaking in English and kept cracking quite a few dad jokes. I recommend this for those who aren't afraid of the ocean's swaying!

イルカの群れも並走し長く見ることができました。

There were only two of us participating from Japan. Everything was explained in fast-paced English, which I couldn't understand at all, but that was expected, so it wasn't a problem. I was satisfied to see the whale's tail from a distance a few times, which was also within my expectations. However, when snacks were being distributed, they didn't even acknowledge us, and when we were getting off, they kept looking at our hands, probably checking if we would leave a tip? I got off the boat feeling disappointed.

日本人の参加は私達2人だけでした。説明など全て早口の英語で全くわからなかったけど、想定内の事なので問題なし。クジラも遠くに尻尾が見える程度でこれも想定内でしたので､何度か見る事ができたので満足でした。ただ、スナックを配ばる際､私達2人には声もかけてもらえず、降りる時､ずっと手元を見られていて、チップ入れるか確認してたのかな？残念な思いで下船しました。

[Beltora Staff Experience] Amazing luck! I got to see a whale! 【ベルトラスタッフ体験談】強運に感動！クジラに会えました！

Reviewed by: S.VELTRA

When it comes to winter in Hawaii, whale watching is definitely a highlight! I participated in early February 2024.

I took an Uber from my hotel to the meeting point for the first morning tour. During this time of year, it can get a bit cool in the mornings and evenings, so having a light jacket was a good idea. Upon arriving at the meeting point right next to the Prince Hotel, I found many guests from the mainland USA already lined up. (It seemed there were few Asian guests.) After giving my name to a staff member in a PINK SAILS uniform, I completed the check-in process. Once the boat was ready, we were guided to board.

The interior of the boat is spacious, but seats at the front and on the upper deck are taken in the order of boarding. If you hesitate, you might miss out on a good seat, so I recommend getting in line early!

I was a bit anxious about seasickness, but the waves were calm on the day I participated. Since it was a catamaran, there was little rocking, and I could enjoy the pleasant sea breeze. We departed the harbor and moved a little off the coast of Waikiki. The boat stopped near Hilton's beach, and the whale watching began. Fortunately, during my tour, we spotted a mother and calf whale within just a few minutes, coming close enough to see them clearly. We maintained a respectful distance to avoid stressing the whales, allowing us to observe their fins and spouts for a while.

The onboard guide spoke entirely in English, providing detailed explanations about whale behavior, including parenting methods, as well as the direction of where to look for the whales. While good listening skills in English are necessary, there were many interesting stories that were very informative. The guide also indicated the direction of the whales (like 11 o'clock or 3 o'clock), and all the guests from the mainland were looking in the same direction. Even if someone missed the English explanation, they could follow the gaze of the other guests to spot the whales!

However, since the color of the whales' backs can blend in with the ocean, it might be difficult to see them from a distance. If you're prepared, bringing binoculars could help you see better.

After enjoying the whale watching, a pod of dolphins appeared in the distance. While they didn't jump high, they surfaced and showed their fins, and compared to the whales, the dolphins were more playful and adorable, which was a delightful surprise. Just when I thought I was already satisfied with the whales, the excitement continued! A white woman sitting next to me kept exclaiming "Oh my god" in delight, and the little children were also visibly thrilled.

Seeing such precious wildlife off the coast of Waikiki, surrounded by tall buildings, truly showcases the unique beauty of Hawaii's nature. It seems there are days when you might not see anything depending on the wave conditions and the whales' mood, so I feel incredibly grateful for my good fortune.

I'm really glad I participated. Thank you to all the staff!

冬のハワイの風物詩といえば、やっぱりホエールウォッチングですね！2024年2月初旬に参加しました。

朝一番の回、ホテルからUberで集合場所まで移動。この時期のハワイは朝晩少し涼しくなりますので、薄手の上着があって良かったです。プリンスホテル真横の集合場所に到着すると、既にたくさんの米国本土のお客様が並んでいました。（アジア系のゲストは少ない様子でした。）
PINK SAILSさんの制服を着たスタッフさんに名前を伝えればチェックイン完了です。船の準備が整ったところで乗船の案内をいただきました。
船内は広々していますが、前の席や上のデッキ等は乗船した順で取られていきます。遠慮していると良い席に座れなくなりますので、早めに列に並んでおくのがお勧めです。！

船酔いしないか少しヒヤヒヤしていましたが、私が参加した日は波も穏やか。カタマラン船なので船の揺れも少なく、気持ち良い潮風を感じることもできました。港を出発しワイキキ沖を少し進みます。ヒルトンのビーチが見える辺りで船が止まり、クジラ探しがスタート。私の参加回は強運なことに数分の創作でクジラの親子が見つかり、ギリギリ見えるくらいの距離まで接近してくれました。親子のストレスにならないようにボートとクジラの距離を保ちながら、しばらくクジラの背びれや潮吹きの様子を見ることができました。

船内のガイドは全て英語ですが、クジラの見える方向に加えて子育ての仕方などもクジラの生態も丁寧に説明してくれます。英語のリスニング力が必要ですが、興味深い話も多く、大変参考になりました。
またクジラが見える場所については、何時の方向（11時の方向、3時の方向等）で教えてくれますし、一緒に乗っているアメリカ本土のお客さんが全員同じ方向を向いてくれます。英語ガイドを聞き逃した人も、周りのお客さんに合わせて視線を向ければ、クジラの姿に気がつくはず…です！

なお、クジラの背中と海の色が似ているため、なかなか遠くからは見えづらい場合もあると思います。準備ができる方は望遠鏡などを持っていくとよく見えるかもしれません。

一通りクジラウォッチングを楽しんだ後、遠くにイルカの群れが現れてました。大きなジャンプこそなかったですが、鼻を出してくれたり、背びれを見せてくれたり、クジラに比べてアグレッシブでかわいいイルカたちも見られ感動でした。クジラだけでも大満足だったところに嬉しいサプライズ！横に乗っていた白人女性の方は嬉しさのあまり「Oh my god」と言い続け、小さなお子さんたちも大喜びの様子でした。

ビルが立ち並ぶワイキキ沖でこんなに貴重な野生動物が見られるなんて、ハワイの大自然は唯一無二ですね。
波の状況やクジラの気分によっては見られない日もあるようなので、自身の強運には驚きと感謝ばかり。

参加でき本当に良かったです。スタッフの皆様ありがとうございました！

Fortunately, I encountered a whale. 運良く、くじらに遭遇しました

Reviewed by: よみたけ

Since I was staying at Hawaiian Village, it was easy to find the location of Pink Sails in front of Prince Waikiki, about a 15-minute walk. We set sail at 8 AM, and during the two-hour trip, we were able to see the spouts from a distance several times. When we turned around, we encountered a whale swimming slowly parallel to our boat, and later, two more whales swam by. Finally, we saw one of them slowly sinking its tail as if to say goodbye. I think a smaller boat would have allowed us to see them even closer, but I felt very lucky. I bought motion sickness medication at ABC Mart and took it beforehand. If you plan to go, I recommend bringing some from Japan.

ハワイアンビレッジに宿泊していたので、徒歩15分くらいで、プリンスワイキキ前のピンク・セイルズの場所はわかりやすかったです。朝8時に出航し、2時間の間に遠目に潮吹きを何度か見られて、Uターンしたころに、船にゆっくりと並行するくじらと遭遇、そのあとも2頭のくじらが泳ぎ去り、最後にさよならをするようにゆっくりとしっぽを沈めていくのを見ることが出来ました。もう少し小さな船のほうが、もっと間近で見られていたようにですが、とても運が良かったと思います。酔い止めはABCマートで買い事前に飲みました。予定しているのなら日本からの持参をお勧めします。

I was at the very front of the boat and was thrilled to see turtles and dolphins swimming nearby. However, the boat was quite rocky, so I strongly recommend taking motion sickness medication. I also noticed some people feeling groggy inside the boat.

Additionally, it can be surprisingly cold on the water, so a jacket or a towel is essential. There is a directive to print out a waiver on paper, but it seemed that you could also read a QR code at the reception and respond that way. For those who are not confident in English, I think it would be fine to sign the printed paper and bring it along.

I hope everyone has a great experience!

天候は曇りで途中から小雨が降るなど恵まれませんでしたが、クジラには気付いただけで3回、塩吹き、背中、尾びれまで見ることが出来ました。英語ツアーでしたがクジラがでるとどなたかがWhale！right などと叫ぶので問題なかったです。船の一番前で見ていたところ、カメやイルカが泳ぐのも身近に見れて大満足。ただし、かなり揺れがあったので酔い止めを飲まれることを強くおすすめします。船内でグロッキー状態の方も見かけました。
また海上は意外と寒いので上着やバスタオルなど羽織物も必須です。
なお、宣誓書を紙でプリントアウトしていくよう指示がありますが、当日受付でQRコードを読んで回答してもよいようでした。英語苦手な方は印刷した紙にサインしてお持ちになればよいかと思います。
みなさんの体験がよいものでありますように

If you get seasick, motion sickness medication is essential. 船酔いする人は酔い止め必須

Reviewed by: KU

We were able to see whales safely, although we were a bit far away. However, the wind was strong and the waves were high, causing the boat to rock a lot. By the time we reached the whale watching point, the situation was quite tough, and honestly, it felt like we couldn't focus on seeing the whales at all. Those who don't get seasick seemed to be having a great time, but I think it's essential for those who are prone to motion sickness to take medication.

少し離れたところからではありましたが、無事にクジラは見れました。ただ風が強く、波も高かったので船がすごく揺れました。クジラが見れるポイントについた時にはかなり辛い状況で、正直クジラを見るどころではない感じでした。船酔いしない人は楽しそうにしてましたが、酔いやすい人は酔い止め必須だと思います。

Two hours is enough! 2時間で充分！

Reviewed by: 碧海

After watching the sunrise at Diamond Head, I returned to the hotel to change and then participated in the 10:30 whale watching tour. I thought I might not see any whales since it was only a two-hour trip, but I was able to see whales multiple times, although they were a bit distant on either side of the boat. It was also thanks to being on the boat that I could see Diamond Head and Waikiki Beach! It was cloudy, so it wasn't a concern, but on a sunny day, it would be wise to apply sunscreen thoroughly (the wind is strong, so hats can fly away). One point to note is that the announcements were only in English, and it was a bit unclear that I needed to sign a waiver before boarding, but other than that, I was really satisfied.

ダイヤモンドヘッドの朝日を見て、ホテルに帰って着替えてから、10時半のホエールウォッチングに参加しました。
2時間なので見えないかもと思っていましたが、船の左右で少し離れてはいましたが何度も鯨を見ることができました。
ダイヤモンドヘッドとワイキキビーチが見えるのも船に乗ったからこそ！
曇り空だったので気になりませんでしたが、快晴なら日焼け止めをしっかり塗ったほうが良さそう。（風が強いので帽子は飛んでいきます）
ただ一点、英語のアナウンスのみのため、補償契約を乗船前に書かなくてはいけないのが分かりづらかったけど、それ以外は本当に満足でした。

I couldn't see any whales. くじらは見られませんでした

Reviewed by: はっちーに

I didn't see any whales, but the view of Waikiki Beach and Diamond Head from the ocean was very beautiful! I accepted that it was just a matter of luck, but I still enjoyed the cruising experience. It was really bumpy, so I definitely recommend bringing motion sickness medication from Japan.

くじらは見られませんでしたが、海の上から見るワイキキビーチとダイヤモンドヘッドはとても綺麗でした！
こればっかりは運なので仕方がない、と諦めましたがクルージングだけでも充分楽しめました。すごく揺れたので酔い止めは日本から持って行ったほうが絶対にいいと思います。

I didn't see any whales. Be sure to take measures against seasickness. クジラは見られませんでした。 船酔い対策必須

Reviewed by: ぽろろん

I participated at the end of the year. I took motion sickness medication, but the boat was very slow, and it was tough until we returned to land. I couldn't see any whales, but later I heard that it's quite rare to see them around Oahu. Even if you do see them, they are said to be very far away. I think it would be better to participate in Maui or similar locations.

年末に参加しました。
酔い止めを飲んで参加しましたが、船がとてもゆっくりで陸に戻るまで辛かったです。
クジラも見る事ができなかったのですが、後で聞くとオアフで見られるのはかなり希なようですね。
見る事ができてもとても遠いとの事でした。
マウイ島などで参加されるのがよいと思います。

Pink Sails Waikiki Whale Watching Tour - Morning & Sunset Cruise [Dec-Apr]

Great time!

Reviewed by: Julie Haider

We had a great time. We saw dolphins, turtles, and a mom and baby humpback whale. The baby was breaching over and over; incredible to watch! The crew was funny and informative and helpful. It was a really enjoyable experience!

サンセットセーリング　ワイキキ沖で夕日を堪能！ご希望でサンセットタイムのスイミングも！ ＜ワイキキ発＞

It was a wonderful sunset cruise! 素敵なサンセットクルーズでした！

Reviewed by: ライム

The breeze was pleasant, and it was a very enjoyable cruise! The captain spotted a whale and chased after it several times. From a distance, we could see the spray and the tail!
At one point, the boat stopped, and those who wanted to swim went into the water. We didn't swim because we thought it might get cold after getting out of the sea.
Indeed, during this time of year, it gets chilly after sunset. I was glad I brought a long-sleeved jacket.
Also, the night view of Waikiki was very beautiful!
I would love to join again if I have the opportunity.

風が気持ち良く、とても楽しいクルーズでした！キャプテンがくじらを発見し、何度も追いかけてくれました。遠くからですが、しぶきと尾ひれが見えました！
途中で船を停めてくれて、海に入りたい人は泳いでいました。私たちは海から出た後、寒くなりそうだったので、泳ぎませんでした。
やはり、この時期は、日が沈んでからは、肌寒くなってきました。長袖の上着を持ってきていて良かったと思いました。
そして、ワイキキの夜景がとても綺麗でした！
また機会があれば参加したいです。

I was disappointed that I couldn't see any whales, but I enjoyed the beautiful scenery without any waves. Next time, I will sign up for a Japanese tour!

Four L Watching フォーエルウォッチング

Reviewed by: Fuwa

I was wondering if I would be able to see anything in December, but I boarded the boat with a little hope. The cheerful and polite staff welcomed us warmly. Despite the strong sea breeze, they called out to each group of passengers and took photos one after another. I got to see the whale I had been longing for and the spouting water. I am grateful to the staff who anchored the boat in the sea and waited patiently. The vast blue ocean stretched out as far as the eye could see. I hope to ride this boat again someday for whale watching. By then, I’m sure I’ll be able to meet the whales…

12月ではまだ見れないかな？と思いながら、少しだけ期待もして搭乗した船。
陽気で丁寧な応対のお兄さん達。
強い海風に煽られながらも、グループ毎の乗客に声をかけて、次々に写真を撮ってくれた。
会いたかったくじら。見たかった汐吹。
海上で船を停泊させて粘ってくれた、お兄さん達に、感謝。青い大海原がずっと先まで見渡せた。
いつかまたフォーエルウォッチングをしにこの船に乗ろう。その時は、きっと、くじらに合えるように…
