Sailing is the best! You can really enjoy it. セーリングは最高ですね！楽しめます

Reviewed by: みちどん

There were only my husband and I who were Japanese, and the rest were all foreigners, but the staff supported us with their limited Japanese, which was very reassuring.
However, there was a group that got seasick, so they temporarily returned to the shore.
The catamaran sailing was pleasant and I highly recommend it; the snorkeling equipment was well-stocked, and they checked on us multiple times to see if we were okay.
I would like to use this service again, but I regret not knowing the typical tip amount and think I may have given too little.

日本人は私たち夫婦だけで、他は外国人ばかりでしたがスタッフは片言の日本語でフォローしてくれて、とても安心でした。
ただ船酔いしたグループがいたので、途中一旦もどり下船していました。
カタマランのセーリングは気持ちよくおすすめです、シュノーケル機材も充実していて何度も大丈夫か？と聞いてくれます。
また利用したいです、最後のチップの相場が分からなくて少なかったかなと、後悔しています。

2.5-Hour Waikiki Guided Turtle Snorkel Tour, Snacks & Drinks - Holokai Catamaran

Highlight of our trip

Reviewed by: Bethany Vaughn

We thoroughly enjoyed our time on the snorkel catamaran. The boat crew was not only incredibly informative on use of equipment, but ensured first time
Snorkelers like ourselves had adequate support. They were also pretty comical as well! Seeing the sea turtles was awesome! One crew member even dove down to to the reef to retrieve my dropped cell phone! I had so many priceless photos and memories from my Dad’s funeral on the phone, that I would not have been able to replace them. Thank you for the incredible experience.

Snorkeling is fun. シュノーケリングが楽しい

Reviewed by: norik

We boarded the boat and first headed a little offshore for some snorkeling. It’s not too far from the shore, but surprisingly there is quite a current and depth. That said, life vests are provided, so there’s no need to worry. We were able to swim while watching sea turtles and small fish.

During the sailing afterward, we got to see dolphins up close. However, the wind was strong offshore, which made the boat quite rocky. Additionally, being wet and exposed to the wind made it feel much colder, even though the sun was strong. I think motion sickness medication and a jacket are essential.

船に乗り込んでまずは少し沖に出て、そこでシュノーケリングです。岸からそこまで離れていないのですが意外に流れと深さがあります。とはいえライフベストが配られるので心配ありません。ウミガメや小さな魚を見ながら泳ぐことができました。
その後のセーリングではイルカを間近で見ることができました。ただし風が沖では強かったこともあってかなり揺れました。また濡れたまま風にあたるので日差しは強かったのにかなり冷えました。酔い止めと上着は必須だと思います。

Reviewed by: exit

I understood that the explanation would be in English, but it might be tough if you’re not really good at English! I couldn’t understand not only the explanations but also the jokes within them, so I was confused the whole time.

As for the sea, I was able to see sea turtles! However, apart from that, there were just a few black fish here and there.

There was a performance where we rode the waves? The boat rocked a lot, and the foreigners seemed to enjoy it, but it went on for more than ten times and was quite long. My husband ended up feeling sick, which affected the rest of our trip. The strong rocking continued, and I even bumped my leg against the stairs and got a bruise.

Also, it was really cold, so a jacket is a must!

英語での説明なことはわかっていましたが、本当に英語が上手でないと厳しいかもしれません！説明だけでなく、説明の中のジョークなども分からず、終始ハテナでした。
海は、海亀をみることはできました！が、それ以外は黒い魚がちらほら、です。

波に乗り？船を大きく揺らすパフォーマンスがあって、外人の方は喜んでいましたが、揺らす回数が10回以上と長く、夫は気持ち悪くなってしまいその後の旅行に影響してしまいました。大きな揺れが続き私も階段に足をぶつけあざを作ってしまいました。

あとすごく、寒かったので上着必須です！

Amazing experience

Reviewed by: destiny

We decided to do this tour for our anniversary and it was amazing! The staff were super helpful and knew what they were doing. Everyone was nice and making sure you're having a good time. The food was great as well as the snacks. Snorkeling was really fun. I seen more than a few turtles and lots of fish! I would not recommend this if pregnant and further along (like myself, I was 22 weeks), this caused my life vest to keep pushing to the side. So I had to use so much strength to hold it down and swim and still snorkel, it was really hard with the belly in the way. Other than that, it was really fun! I would recommend booking before you fly to hawaii. We were told it fits 80 people, i booked ahead anyways and sure enough it was only a 30 head count and full, so there isnt much room for you to wait last minute.

It's easy to participate and feels like a great deal. 手軽に参加でき、お得感あります

Reviewed by: ハワイ好き

Starting from Waikiki Beach, it's convenient if you're staying in Waikiki. You don't need to wake up particularly early.

When I participated in the dolphin tour, the meeting time was early in the morning, which was tough, and the dolphins just zipped by, so it didn't feel like swimming with them. In contrast, the sea turtles swam leisurely close by, which was very soothing. There were also plenty of fish swimming around.

I can't swim in deep water where my feet don't touch the bottom, but they provide something like a life vest, so I just float along.

I went with elementary and preschool children, and although we repeated the experience, they seemed scared of jumping into the sea, so we quickly retreated from snorkeling. Still, the experience of cutting through the wind off Waikiki on the catamaran was priceless.

出発がワイキキビーチなので、ワイキキ滞在であれば便利です。特別早起きする必要もないし。

イルカツアーに参加した時は集合時間が早朝で辛かったし、イルカはビュンビュン通過してしまうのでいっしょに泳ぐという感じではありませんでした。その点、ウミガメさんはゆったりと間近で泳いでくれて癒し度が高い。魚もいっぱい泳いでました。

私は足のつかない深さのところは泳げませんが、救命ベスト(？)のようなのをつけるのでぷかーっと浮きます。

小学生と幼稚園の子供と行きましたが、リピートですが、海にドボンが怖いようで、シュノーケリングは早々に退散。それでもカタマラン号でワイキキ沖の風を切る体験はプライスレスかと。

Reviewed by: Tyler Russell

So it all started with a super welcoming crew. The captain and both the deckhands were extremely courteous and expressed the spirit of Aloha in welcoming us aboard! Next came an explanation of what the trip would consist of, and I was like, oh yeah, this is gonna be a hoot and a half. Then we were underway on Diesel engines that sounded like the sweet purr of freedom you could only get on the open ocean. We headed out to the turtle cleaning reef, and we were not disappointed. They promised a great snorkel experience and they delivered! We jumped in the water after the best explanation of our safety and snorkel equipment and were immediately greeted by the ocean wildlife! Turtle the size of Kia souls cut in half with flippers! It was incredible. After we had our feel of the little mermaid experience, it was back to the boat where we were served libations by barista/deckhand that could rival those of a well seasoned bar! Drinks were flowing like the rays of sunshine beating down on us. We dropped sail, and cruises on the wind like seagulls on the breeze. It was a glorious experience that I will remember for years to come. When all was said and down, the sails returned to their stowed position, we sailed back to shore on those sweet Diesel engines and touched down gently on the sands of Waikiki. Your crew and company will hold a special place in our hearts as we carry the memories of good times with us. We found our beach!

Reviewed by: Will C

Wow! We had such a good time on the boat this morning. Was convenient to get the boat at 10.30 just after breakfast from right on the beach. Crew were friendly and just a short journey out to Turtle Canyon! The crew were fun and helpful, and when we got to Turtle Canyon we were lucky enough to see 6+ turtles, many fish and the crew/ lifeguard/ guide pointed out a few extra interesting things. We had plenty of time to be in the water looking at the turtles, most people returned to the boy long before they had to and enjoyed a few drinks in a beautiful setting.
We looked out for whales or dolphins on the way back but didn’t get lucky, Aparently they are there though and can sometimes be seen.
They provided life jackets which were good to snorkel with as don’t have to take too much effort to stay floating and can easily deflate if you want to dive down.
Not was not too crowded, we had only about 15 people but they did say they can do up to 49 people and I imagine that would be very crowded!
At turtle canyon there were quite a few other boats but if you were patient it wasn’t that bad in the water snorkeling around, just watch out for any collisions with other swimmers!
The crew were good and kept an eye on us in the water at all times too, letting people know if they were going too far or anything and also pointing out where the turtles are!
In summary, something we would love to do again and would certainly recommend to any other people visiting Hawaii!
There isn’t much shade on the bot was one thing with nothing - so take a hat if it’s a sunny day!
Crew were very generous providing drinks on board too! I’d be surprised if anyone managed to have all three free drinks though after the snorkel (no alcohol before swimming) it’s only 20 mins back to the beach.
