This was a wonderful ending to our week vacation in Hawaii. The staff on the catamaran were very friendly and helpful and made you feel comfortable and like you were part of their family. The fireworks from this vantage point was a great way to complete our Hawaiian vacation. Would highly recommend this activity.

The boat was quite rocky and the wind was cold, but the sunset was breathtaking! I really felt like I was in the great outdoors.
To be honest, the sunset was just average, but the dessert was delicious.
After finishing dinner, there was quite a long wait until the fireworks, but we ended on a high note with the fireworks! My 80-year-old mother was also very happy.
船は結構揺れて風も冷たかったですが、夕陽は圧巻でした!
大自然の中にいるなぁという感じです。
夕陽は正直、普通でしたが、デザートは美味しかったです。
夕食を食べ終え、花火まですごく時間が空いてしまうのですが、最後に花火で盛り上がりました!
80歳の母も喜んでくれました。

What a night! It took 46 years of marriage to finally get to Hawaii and enjoyed it to the fullest including the romantic cruise watching the fireworks. Perfect night weather and sea conditions. Beautiful shorline with the colorful night lights. Can't wait to return...hopefully sooner than 46 more years!

Good cruise but was disappointed that it stated Fireworks and they brought us back to land to watch it and not on the catamaran where we would have gotten a great view. Don't advertise fireworks and then don't deliver. We could have paid the lesser price and got the same thing. Just sayin!!

A fun relaxing evening to put it simply. First there's the no hassle boarding right off the beach as the catamaran comes right up onto the beach. There may be a line but boarding is quick with lots of room for everyone once on board. You get underway very quickly, a brief safety talk, and then your motoring out past the waves to station yourself for the fireworks show. Drinks are as free flowing as you want distributed by the crew of one in a very efficient manner. The fireworks show looking back at the beach is pretty good - how can it not be- your on a boat in the Pacific, looking at skyline of Waikeke and it's 82 degrees!!! After the fireworks the captain raises the sails and you cruise along the coast. BUT - the best part of the trip is talking with the other passengers- my family met a group from New Zealand and we spent the time talking about differences between the two cultures as similiar as they may be to each other. We have 17 year old twins (boy & girl) and they also had lots of fun !! The price was a very good value, the time at sea was about right- Highly recommended!!

The crew was amazing. The fireworks were awesome!! It started out with a booking that was fast and informative. We then started out on the water. Smooth sailing, and the captain was very friendly and personable. They said that the maitais were the best on the island. They weren't kidding!! Overall very well done!

This catamaran sail was great! The crew made us all feel comfortable and safe. Drinks were free and the MaiTais were very tasty. The Captain moored us in a great place to see the fireworks and then sailed towards Waikiki to see a beautiful moon rise. Great tour all the way around.

It's not a very large ship, so at first, I was a bit nervous, but there was little rocking. The elementary school children were able to experience the feeling of being a captain at the helm, and the wind felt nice. Above all, the fireworks were beautiful and left me impressed.
あまり大ききな船でないので、さいしは、ドキドキしましたが、揺れもすくなく、小学生の子は、運転台で擬似船長気分を味わうこともできて風が、気持ち良く、なんと言っても花火が、きれいで感激しました。

Since it was titled a dinner cruise, I dressed up, but it was completely inappropriate... Everyone was in shorts and flip-flops. On the boat, we were instructed to take off our shoes. There was very little space to sit, and we stood for two hours, being rocked back and forth. The number of guests complaining of nausea gradually increased, and we were almost in a situation where the restroom couldn't be used. Fortunately, I had taken motion sickness medication, so I managed to get through it, but I was worried about the restroom, so I didn't eat or drink anything. Finally, after a long wait, the fireworks lasted only a few minutes... It was just kind of disappointing.
ディナークルーズというタイトルであったので、ドレスアップしたのですが、まったくのお門違いで・・・皆短パンにビーチサンダル。船上では靴を脱げの指示。着席出来るスペースも少なくて2時間立ちっぱなしの揺られっぱなし。吐き気を訴える客が次第に増えて、危うくトイレが使用できない状態になる寸前でした。私は幸い酔い止めを飲んでいったのでなんとか切り抜けましたが、トイレのことが心配で、飲まず食わすでした。やっと待って上がった花火も数分間で・・・なんだかなぁ~って感じでした。

A little while ago, at the end of 2011, I participated in an event where we could see fireworks from a boat.
We set sail around dusk, and there were about 20 people, I think? I had heard it was an English tour, but it was quite accommodating for Japanese speakers, so it wasn't a problem if you couldn't speak much.
The meal was served buffet-style. There were a decent variety of dishes, and I thought the food itself was tasty. I believe drinks were included for the first two.
The fireworks lasted about 15 minutes. If you imagine a Japanese fireworks festival, it might feel a bit lacking.
However, if you focus on the value of seeing fireworks from a boat, I don't think it's bad at all.
Personally, I felt my level of satisfaction was just okay.
少々前ですが、2011年末、船上から花火が見れるということで参加しました。
夕暮れ時に出向し、約20人くらいだったでしょうか?
英語ツアーと聞いていましたが、日本人慣れしており、喋れなくてもほぼ問題ありません。
お食事はブッフェ形式。
種類はそこそこあってお食事自体は美味しかったと思います。
ドリンクは確か2ドリンクまでは料金込みでした。
花火は15分ほどだったと。
日本の花火大会を想像してしまうと、やっぱり物足りなさはありましたが。
船上から花火を見えるという価値を重視すれば、すごくわるいわけではないと思います。
個人的には満足度はそこそこかなーと思いました。

We used this place for a meal with both families after the ceremony. On that day, the waves happened to be high, and since it was a buffet style, it was difficult for family members to go get food due to seasickness.
Since it’s not a large ship, it may not be suitable for those who are prone to seasickness. Other than that, I think it’s a tour where you can participate with peace of mind without worrying about language!
挙式後の両家合わせての食事の際に利用させて頂きました。
当日はたまたま波が高く、ビュッフェスタイルの為家族が船酔いしてしまい食事を取りに行く事が難しかったです。
大型船ではないので、船酔いをする方には向いていないかもしれません。
それ以外は言葉の心配もなく、安心して参加できるツアーかと思います!

The sunset and fireworks were both amazing! However, on that day, the wind was strong and the waves were high, causing quite a bit of rocking on the boat. My companion got seasick, so I had to take care of them, which meant I could only enjoy about half of the experience. Still, I was satisfied. Despite causing some trouble for the staff, they responded with smiles throughout, and I am very grateful for that.
サンセット、花火ともに最高でした!
ただ、この日は風が強く波も高く船の揺れがけっこうあり、連れ添いが船酔いをしてしまい介抱していたため半分位しか楽しめませんでした。それでも満足でした。

Ship was clean, sailing was fun. The food was not especailly great (except the cream puffs--defrosted frozen, love them!), and I was surprised that the alcohol was not good quality and the beer was limited to two types. We just sailed back and forth for about 1 1/2 hours off the coast of Waikiki, saw fireworks that lasted about 10 mins, and couldn't see them well unless you were on the front of the boat (and not everyone could fit up there. The crew were polite but not very interactive. Wouldn't do it again.

I participated in the same fireworks event at Hilton last year and had a great time, so I signed up for the same tour this year. The staff crew was the same, and there was a very charming guy who was great at talking (he mentioned he was getting married soon and asked for tips, but I feel like he said the same thing last year...?). Anyway, they were all people who made the passengers enjoy themselves. The cruise had an equal mix of Japanese and foreign guests. The food was simple but delicious, and although drinks were ticket-based, soft drinks were unlimited, so I didn't have much trouble (the waves were slightly higher than last year, and since the meal was on the outdoor deck, it was a bit challenging due to the rocking).
We were able to enjoy the sunset on the horizon, and the atmosphere from the sea was fantastic. I especially recommend this tour for Friday nights.

I participated with a group of five friends. I decided to board the large ship because I had been on one before and wanted to see the fireworks, but the fireworks felt a bit far away. However, the performances on the ship included dancing, and we could enjoy them together. I think I would have enjoyed it even more if I understood English a little better.

Last month, I booked this as part of my son's wedding event. Most of the participants were repeat visitors to Hawaii and had already experienced dinner cruises. The bride's wish was for a dinner cruise, so after some deliberation, we decided on this sunset cruise. The boat was small, which might be a bit unfortunate for those who are sensitive to motion, but the open-air breeze was pleasant, and the staff had experience staying in Japan and were very attentive. Next time, I would like to take a cruise for my husband and my anniversary.

On the last day of our Golden Week trip, which was a Friday, we decided to participate in this highly rated activity of watching fireworks from a boat. After two hours, witnessing the ten-minute fireworks display was indeed a wonderful experience! However, while the food was tasty, I became anxious about whether I could eat much due to the boat's rocking for two hours (worried about seasickness). In the end, no one in my family could use the free drink tickets (two drinks each), and we barely managed to sip the first drink served.
Moreover, it was extremely cold. To protect my grandmother from the cold, we huddled together on the deck. Thankfully, we managed to avoid catching a cold until today, so it remains a good memory. The staff were cheerful and attentive to us, but considering all of this, I have to rate it accordingly.
Make sure to dress warmly if you go. I also recommend taking motion sickness medication before participating. Additionally, since the restroom is located at the bottom of the boat, I think it's best to avoid going to the restroom while on board to prevent seasickness. The sunset, the bright moon, and the view of Diamond Head illuminated by it were all wonderful, but I think one hour would have been sufficient.
GW旅行の最終日、金曜日だった為、花火を船上で見上げるのも一興かもね、と、皆さんの評価も高かった本アクティビティに参加しました。
2時間の末に見上げた10分の花火の饗宴を見上げたのはやはり素晴らしい経験でした!
が、食事は味はいいのですが、やはり食べると、2時間もつか(船酔いしてしまうのでは?)と不安になるくらい揺れるため、あまり食べることができず。
飲み物のフリーチケット(各2杯)は、結局家族のだれも使えず、最初のサービスの一杯に口をつけるのが精いっぱいでした。
そして、何より、超・寒かった。
祖母を寒さから守るため、身を寄せ合って甲板に座り、、結局今日まで風邪をひかないで済んだので、良い思い出ではありますが。
スタッフの皆さんは陽気で楽しく、我々にも大変気を使ってくださったのですが、、、そんなこんなで評価の星数です。
しっかり暖かい恰好をしていってください。
さらに、酔い止めは、しっかり飲んで参加をお勧めします。
また、船のトイレは船底にあるため、船上でトイレに行くのも、酔うのを避けるには、やめたほうがよいかと思います。
サンセットも、月が明るくなる様子もそれに照らし出されるダイヤモンドヘッドも素晴らしかったけど、1時間でいいです。。
