Our entire group, including a friend with cebral palsy, had an incredible time! The crew taught us what we needed to know & provided us with everything we needed to have a great time except towels. They knew just where to go for us to see sea turtles!!!! We also saw several schools of colorful fish. We even had an impromptu boat party with music, snacks, drinks, pirate & viking hat! It was one of the best parts of our Hawaiian vacation! Worth every penny! If we come back to Hawaii, they will definitely be apart of our vacation plans!! Thank you Holokai crew

Absolutely amazing time! The crew of the Holokai was great! They provided everything needed for our snorkeling adventure, they knew just where to go to see wondrous underwater life, and everyone aboard saw sea turtles as well as several different schools of colorful fish!!! They knew just where to go! Such a great value for our money! Sun, music, snacks, sails, water, and beverages. Woohoo! If you must pick one activity while in Hawaii, this is it! You will not be disappointed

Sea turtle ウミガメ

Reviewed by: のりこ

We were the only Japanese people on the tour. I couldn't understand Japanese, and I didn't know what the captain was saying, but it was okay, haha.

The tour description mentioned that they would lend us fins, but they only provided snorkeling gear and life jackets. I think the tour details need to be updated. Everyone else around us brought their own fins! It was fine without them, though.

Before boarding, they took photos (which they later sold for $20).
↓
Once we set out, we encountered a pod of dolphins!
↓
There was only one snorkeling spot. We got to swim with five big turtles! If you have a GoPro, the staff will dive down to take pictures of the turtles for you.
↓
We enjoyed drinks (for a fee) while listening to music and having fun. They said that if you jumped into the sea, beer was free! But it was too cold for me to do that.
↓
We went further out to look for whales, but we couldn't find any and had to head back.

Although I couldn't understand Japanese, the staff lady was cheerful and friendly.

I usually don't get motion sickness, but I felt seasick this time. It was cold in January, so be prepared!

日本人は私達だけでした。日本語も通じませんし、船長は何言ってるかわかりませんでしたが大丈夫です笑
ツアー内容にフィンも貸してくれるとありましたが、シュノーケルと救命胴衣だけでした。ツアー内容に変更が必要かと思います。周りの外国人達はみんな持ってきてました！なしでも大丈夫です。
乗船前に写真撮影(最後に20ドルで販売していました)
↓
沖に出たらイルカの群れに遭遇！
↓
潜るポイントはワンスポットのみです。大きなカメ5匹と一緒に泳げました！ゴープロもってる人はスタッフが下まで潜ってカメを撮ってくれます。
↓
音楽を聴きながらお酒(有料)を飲んで、わいわい
(海に飛び込んだらビール無料！って言っていましたが寒くて無理でした)
↓
クジラを探しにさらに沖へ

見つからず帰る

日本語は通じませんが、スタッフのお姉さんは明るくて気さくに話しかけてくれました。

普段乗り物酔いしませんが、船酔い海酔いしました。1月で寒かったです。対策を！

I had a lot of fun on a boat like the one in the movie Moana, which was also fast. This time, I participated with my family, but there were no other Japanese people besides us. The guide only spoke English. It was a very satisfying tour.

I recommend that those who are prone to motion sickness take anti-nausea medication in advance.

映画モアナに出てる様な船で、スピードもあって凄く楽しめました。
今回、家族での参加でしたが自分達以外に日本人がいなかったです。
ガイドも英語のみです。すごく満足出来るツアーです。

船酔いしやすい方は事前に酔い止めを飲む事をお勧めします。

We saw turtles...(^.^)

Reviewed by: C.L.

Very friendly staff. Check in place is walking distance from my hotel. Since I do get sea sick, I took motion sickness pill an hour before and I didn't eat until it's time to go back to Waikiki beach. Therefore, providing snacks only without meals is perfect for me. They have a guide to swim with us and find turtles and other sea life for us. Our guide even dived to retrieve GoPro for a girl in our group. After snorkeling, they rises their sail and took us to see whales. My 2 teenage boys really enjoyed the activity the whole time.

It was so much fun! 最高に楽しかった

Reviewed by: banchan

We participated as a family. My wife and child had their first snorkeling experience two days prior on another tour and enjoyed it, so we decided on this tour through Veltra, which offers both sailing and snorkeling. I don't speak English, but I thought I could manage if I understood the experiences shared by others. I couldn't fully understand the English of the woman at the beach reception or the crew on board, but they were very kind and helpful. When we dove into the sea, we saw four sea turtles swimming gracefully, and we were able to see tropical fish up close, including striped ones and yellow ones. The sailing after coming out of the water was also pleasant, with good weather and wind. It was great that my wife and child had learned the basics of snorkeling on another tour, but if it's your first time and you're going in without any preparation, it might be tough. I think it's better to research and understand beforehand. This tour offers good value for money, and since it starts in Waikiki, there's no wasted time. I think I will participate again next time.

家族で参加。妻と子は２日前に別のツアーでシュノーケリングを初めて体験し楽しかったのでVeltraで捜しセーリングもシュノーケリングも両方楽しめるこのツアーに決めました。私は英語は出来ませんが他の方の書いた体験談を理解しておけば何とかなると思います。ビーチの受付の女性の英語も乗船してからのクルーの英語も100%聴き取れませんでしたが親切に対応してくれます。海に潜ると海亀が４匹悠々と泳ぎ、魚も縞模様のものや黄色のもの等熱帯魚も近くで見れました。海から上がって来てからのセーリングも天気も風も良く気持ち良かったです。妻と子はシュノーケリングの基本を別のツアーで習っていたので良かったのですが丸っきり初めてでブッツケ本番ですとキツイかもしれません、ネットなどで調べて理解してから参加した方が良いと思います。コスパも良いしワイキキ集合で時間の無駄も無いこのツアーは次も参加すると思います。

I'm glad I chose Holokai!! Holokaiにして良かった!!

Reviewed by: じゃっぷ

We boarded the Holokai Catamaran and quickly arrived at a point where we could see the beachside hotels of Waikiki. During the ride, we received explanations in English and were given life jackets. When I asked if wearing a life jacket was mandatory, I was told it wasn't required, but it was at our own risk. There was no worry about not seeing sea turtles, as they were coming up to the surface to breathe all around us. There was also a tour company nearby doing scuba diving. One slight disappointment was that there weren't many colorful tropical fish or coral at this point. However, there was plenty of time to enjoy snorkeling. After getting back on the boat, we were offered chips and chocolate (free), and drinks like guava juice and beer (for a fee) as we slowly began sailing. Since it was December, we went whale watching and saw a few in the distance. Given the price, the service was good, and I was satisfied with the experience. I highly recommend it!

ホロカイ・カタマラン号に乗り込み、しばらく走るのかと思いきや、ワイキキのビーチサイドホテルが目視できるポイントにすぐ到着。走っている最中に説明(英語)を受けライフジャケットを受け取ります。ライフジャケットの着用は義務か聞くと無しでもOKしかし、自己責任。ウミガメがあちこちで水面に呼吸しに来るので会えない見られないという心配はないと思います。すぐ側でスキューバダイビングをしているツアー会社も居ました。少し残念なのはカラフルな熱帯魚や珊瑚はあまりいないポイントでした。シュノーケリングを楽しむには十分な時間が設けられています。船にあがりチップスやチョコを頂き(無料)飲み物はグアバジュースやビール(有料)ゆっくりとセーリング開始。12月だったためホエールウォッチング。遠目に少しだけ見れました。お値段の割にサービスも良く、内容にも満足です。おススメです!!

I was surprised to see so many turtles off the coast of Waikiki! The staff were very friendly and created a fun atmosphere by engaging with everyone.

The participation description mentioned that snorkeling gear, masks, and fins were included, but it stated that fins are not included in the tour price. If you wish, you can rent them for a fee ($5–6) at the Aqualani Beach Stand next to the check-in area.

Just to be safe, I bought fins and brought them with me. Even though they weigh 500 grams, they made my suitcase heavy. Please provide a thorough explanation.

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

Another snorkeling tour I had booked was canceled the day before, and I was in a bit of a bind. I searched online just in case, and found a tour that I could join the next day, so I signed up. I thought it would be nice just to get on the boat and go snorkeling, but it turned out to be even better with drinks and cruising while listening to music. I had a great time. We were the only Japanese people there, but that also added to the overseas experience, which was nice.

別のシュノーケリングの付いた観光ツアーが、前日に中止になってしまい、困ってたところダメ元で検索したら翌日でも参加可能だったので申し込みました。ボートに乗れて、シュノーケリングできればいいやーて思ってましたが、それ以上にお酒も飲めて音楽を聴きながらのクルージングがあったので、すごく楽しかったです。日本人は私たちだけでしたが、それもまた海外気分を味わえてよかったです。

I made a reservation after arriving on-site, and although the content was compact, I was very satisfied. It's perfect for times when you have a packed schedule and only need a minimum amount of time, like just in the morning. Even though it's not far from Waikiki, I saw so many sea turtles! There was a group of five honu as well! And the crew member looked just like Orlando Bloom, which was quite mesmerizing (laughs). I would love to participate again someday.

現地についてから予約したのですが、コンパクトな内容なのですがとても満足感はありました。

My first catamaran experience. I was a bit nervous because I didn't understand all the instructions in English, but the staff were all lively and the atmosphere was very pleasant.

We encountered a pod of dolphins right after setting sail! Everyone was super excited! After a while, we went snorkeling offshore. With the current, I panicked a bit since I can't swim, but the staff came right away and helped me back to the boat. She was a woman, but very reliable!

After that, we spotted 2 or 3 sea turtles lingering nearby, and everyone was excited again! The rest of the voyage was stable, and we enjoyed the views of Diamond Head and Waikiki from the sea. It was a really fun time.

初めてのカタマラン。
注意事項などすべて英語でよくわからず、ちょっとドキドキでしたが、スタッフはみな元気で雰囲気はとても良かったです。
出航してすぐイルカの群れに遭遇！全員大興奮！
しばらく走ったあと、沖でシュノーケリング。
潮の流れもあり、泳げない私はプチパニックでしたが、スタッフがすぐに来てくれ、船まで連れて行ってくれました。女性ですが、とても頼もしかった！
その後、ウミガメも2～3匹すぐそばにしばらくとどまっていて、みんなまたまた大興奮！
その後の航海も安定していて、ダイヤモンドヘッドやワイキキの景色を沖から眺め、とても楽しい時間でした。
