I encountered a sea turtle. ウミガメに出会えました

Reviewed by: Mido

The meeting place was hard to find, and it took 20 minutes after the meeting time for the guide to finally show up. The guide only provided explanations in English, with no simple Japanese at all. I struggled to get used to putting on the snorkel and couldn't get into the water for a while. The guide mentioned that they couldn't take responsibility for those who couldn't swim, so they advised us not to swim. I think it would have been helpful to have a brief lecture on tips for breathing with the snorkel. Once we set sail, everything went smoothly, and we were able to see sea turtles coming up to the surface multiple times, which was amazing.

集合場所がわかりづらく、集合時間から20分経ってようやくガイドさんが出てきました。
ガイドは英語の説明のみで、簡単な日本語も一切無し。
シュノーケルの付け方に慣れず、なかなか海に入れないでいたら、泳げない人は責任が取れないから泳がないでほしい、と言った話をされましたが、シュノーケルの呼吸の仕方のコツなど簡単なレクチャーがあってもいいと思います。
出航してからの手際はよく、ウミガメは海面付近に何度も出てきたので間近で見れました。

I arrived at the meeting place on time, but there were no tour staff, which made me anxious. Since everything is in English, I recommend joining a tour with Japanese-speaking staff for those who feel uneasy. For those who are okay with just a general understanding, the staff will explain things in an easy-to-understand manner, so please give it a try. I was able to see both sea turtles and wild dolphins perfectly!

集合場所に時間通りに着いたのにツアースタッフがいなくて不安になりました。全て英語なので、不安な方は日本語スタッフのいるツアーに参加される事をお勧めします。何となくでも良い方にはスタッフが分かりやすい言葉て教えてくれるので、参加してみて下さい。ウミガメも野生のイルカもバッチリ見ることができました！

It's a good practice for a first-time snorkeling experience. シュノーケリング初体験には良い練習です

Reviewed by: poohsaya

I participated in the initial practice for snorkeling because I was anxious about going out to sea the next day. Since it was my first experience with snorkeling, the calm waves made it a great place for beginners. All the instructions were in English. They explained how to put on the gear, how to breathe, and the precautions. After that, we practiced in an area where we couldn't touch the bottom. It was mentioned that there was a locker for valuables, but all participants' belongings were placed in a large box with a lock, which was mostly left open. It's better not to bring valuables.

Since it was the same location as scuba diving, it seemed there were staff members coming and going. There were only park restrooms and an outdoor shower. This time, there were two children and me, along with two Americans in our group. For those who can't swim, the instructor pulls a float, so you can hold on and practice. I highly recommend this for anyone who feels anxious about going straight into the sea.

翌日の海に出てシュノーケリングが不安だったのでの初練習として参加。初体験シュノーケリングなので参加して波が穏やかで、初体験の場所として良かったです。説明は全て英語です。付け方や息の仕方の方法、注意事項を説明その後は足が付かない所でずっと練習、貴重品ロッカーと書いてありましたが、大きな鍵付きの箱の中に参加者全員の荷物を入れる、ほぼ開けっぱなしです。貴重品は持たない方が良いですね。
スキューバダイビングと同じ場所なので入れ違いで誰かスタッフがいるようでした。
公園のトイレと外にシャワーがあるだけです。
今回は子供2人と私、アメリカ人2人のグループでした。泳げない人はインストラクターが浮き具を引いてくれるので捕まって練習してました。
いきなり海に開くのが不安な方にはとてもお勧めです。

I was able to see both dolphins and sea turtles! イルカにもホヌにも会えました！

Reviewed by: sora

I chose this tour because the meeting place was close to my hotel and there weren't many options available at the last minute, but it turned out to be a great decision. I had a wonderful experience.

When we arrived at the snorkeling point by boat, we encountered a pod of dolphins! We enjoyed watching the dolphins from the boat.

Once in the water, I swam surrounded by schools of colorful fish of various sizes. (The staff threw food from the boat, so many fish gathered around.) After that, the staff guided us by swimming to the turtle point. We were able to see three turtles that day. They occasionally came up to the surface for air, allowing us to see them up close, which was incredibly exciting!

After the snorkeling time ended, we returned to the boat and sailed out to sea with the sails up, moving quite fast. I was fine, but those who are sensitive to motion might want to be cautious.

The website mentioned bringing a "photo ID," so I brought my passport, but it wasn't required. I didn't read it carefully, but it seems it was needed if you wanted to purchase alcohol on the boat. I misunderstood and thought it was required for the tour participation, so I would appreciate it if the wording could be changed.

After getting out of the water, it can be chilly with the sea breeze, so it's better to have a long-sleeved cover-up or a large towel. Also, there are no staff members who speak Japanese. They explain the precautions before entering the water, so having good listening skills would be helpful. (Since they use gestures, you might manage if you can catch some key words.)

集合場所が宿泊ホテルに近かったのと、間際の予約で他にあまり無かったので選びましたが、結果的に大正解でした。とても素晴らしい体験が出来ました。
ボートでスノーケリングポイントに着いた頃合いで、イルカの群れに遭遇！
ボートの上からしばしイルカ見物。
海に入り、大小色とりどりの魚の群れに囲まれながら遊泳。
（スタッフがボートから餌を投げるので沢山集まってきます）
その後、ホヌポイントまでスタッフが泳いで誘導してくれました。
この日は3匹のホヌに会えました。時おり水面まで息をしに上がってくるので本当に真横にホヌを見ることが出来、大感激！
スノーケリングタイムが終わった後は、ボートに戻り、沖合まで帆を上げてかなり飛ばしていきます。私は大丈夫でしたが、揺れに弱い人は要注意です。
WEBには持ち物に『写真付きのID』と書かれていたのでわざわざパスポートを持っていきましたが、提示は求められませんでした。よく読まなかったのがいけないですが、ボート上でお酒を購入したいときに必要ということだったようです。ツアー参加の際に掲示を求められると勘違いしてしまいましたので、書き方を変えていただけると嬉しいです。　
水から上がった後海風に吹かれて寒いので、長袖の羽織るものか大き目のバスタオルは有った方が良いです。あと、日本語話すスタッフはいません。海に入る前に注意事項を説明されるのでヒヤリング力は有った方が良いです。（身振り手振りの説明なので単語が聞き取れればなんとかなるかも）

Reviewed by: アップルパイ

Even with last-minute reservations, you can feel secure as they confirm everything properly via email and phone. I was a bit anxious about the reception location since there was no sign (as mentioned in the reservation confirmation), but following the map sent with the confirmation helped me find it.

It mentioned to arrive 30 minutes early, but I ended up waiting with nothing to do until the start time, so the purpose of the early arrival was unclear.

The snorkeling experience starts with the instructor properly explaining how to handle the equipment, which is reassuring for beginners. I recommend it for those who want to safely try it out nearby. The water wasn't very clear, though.

直前予約でも、メールと電話できちんと確認されるので安心です。
当日の受付場所は、案内版がなくて（ないと予約確認書に書いてあります）不安でしたが、予約確認書に送られてくる地図に従うとたどり着くことができます。
開始30分前に来るようにと書いてあったのですが、何もすることなく開始時間まで待たされて、30分前集合の意図が不明でした。

シュノーケルは、インストラクターがきちんと器具の扱いを含めて説明をしてくれてから始まるので、初心者には安心です。
近場で安全に、とりあえず試してみたいという方にお勧めします。
海は、あまりクリアではありませんでした。

Amazing snorkel trip w/ top-notch crew

Reviewed by: Johnny Avo

We took a snorkel trip with the Moana boat crew and had a fantastic experience. We set sail on the beautiful catamaran at 0830 and to head out see the sea turtles at the infamous 'shell-cleaning' reef which is located just outside the breakers off Waikiki beach. Our Capt for the day, Anthony, was personable, friendly and made us all feel welcome aboard the boat. Zack and Sarah were the other two crew members and they were friendly, professional, and very helpful throughout the entire trip. 100% would sail with this crew again. Bring some tip $ for them, because they definitely deserve it. Book a tour today!

The snorkel site is popular and several boats are in the area, which is nice because you don't feel like you're out in the middle of the ocean alone. It can get busy with everyone trying to see the turtles and fish so be sure to keep an eye on the surface as well as watching what is below. Some turtles even come over to our boat and I snapped a photo (attached to this review). Overall water depth is about 20-30 feet and even on a cloudy & murky day (like ours) we could easily see numerous fish and several large sea turtles. We were even lucky enough to see Humpback whales (mom & baby)!!

We booked our trip in mid/late Feb and it was overcast & rainy. A bit chilly at times, but come prepared and it's a fun trip regardless. Plenty of covered space to store dry items, but a "drybag" is a nice touch on any beach/water adventure.
We booked the 0830 trip to maximize sea life activity which also resulted in 2 families being on the boat....8 people total. Virtually a private tour! When we pulled back into the pier for the next tour there were about 20-25 people waiting for the next tour. And, parking at the marina is easier before the crowds arrive.

Meeting with the turtle 亀さんとの出会い

Reviewed by: TOSI

We were able to participate as a family. There was an initial explanation, but I could hardly understand it in English. Just before entering the water, I realized that wearing the rental life jackets was not optional for those diving; everyone had to wear one. It would be easier to understand if there were boards displaying information in multiple languages.

The snorkeling was fantastic, with clear weather and a wonderful encounter with a turtle. There were some waves as we headed out to sea, and I got a bit seasick. Participants should be cautious about that. However, even in that situation, I felt safe. The staff were kind and helped me recover quickly.

At the end, we took a commemorative photo with the staff. It was a great memory to be able to swim with the turtle as well.

家族で参加できました。
最初の説明がありましたが、英語でほとんど理解できず、海に入る直前に、レンタルの救命胴衣は希望者ではなく、潜る人は皆着用必須であることがわかりました。各国語表示の掲示板のようなものがあると理解しやすいのになと思います。
シュノーケリングは天候も快晴でカメさんとの出会いもあり最高でした。
沖合に出るため、多少波があり、波酔してしまいました。参加する人は注意しましょう。しかしそうなっても、安心です。スタッフさんが優しく対応してくれすぐに回復しました。
最後はスタッフさんと記念撮影。亀さんとも一緒に泳ぐことができいい思い出になりました。

Encountered a large pod of dolphins! イルカの大群に遭遇‼︎

Reviewed by: ririka

I participated once before the COVID-19 pandemic and had a very valuable experience, so I joined again after about three years! On the day I participated, the wind was strong and the waves were high, which reduced the water's clarity. As a result, when the honu dove, it quickly became hard to see them, and I didn't spot them as often as during my previous visit. However, I was able to see a few honu, and just as I was about to head back to the boat, I spotted a large pod of dolphins in the distance. One of them jumped high like in a dolphin show, and I was so excited! Just when I thought the excitement couldn't get any better, the pod of dolphins started swimming towards us, and in the end, I was able to swim with the dolphins too! It was the best experience to encounter both honu and dolphins!

コロナ禍前に一度参加し、大変貴重な体験ができたため、約3年ぶりに参加させて頂きました！
私が参加した日は風が強く波が高かったため、海の透明度が低く、ホヌが潜ってしまうとすぐに見えなくなってしまい、前回参加した際よりもホヌを見える回数があまり多くありませんでした。しかし、何度かホヌを見ることができたため、船に戻ろうとしたところ、遠くにイルカの大群を見つけ、一匹はイルカショーのように大きくジャンプしてくれて、大興奮していました！大興奮していたのも束の間、だんだんとイルカの大群が私たちの方に泳いできて、最終的にはイルカとも泳ぐことができました‼︎
ホヌもともイルカとも出会えて最高の体験でした‼︎
