All Reviews for Watersports

I had the opportunity to experience this for the first time, and even though I'm not good with heights, I had a great time! Also, I was most happy that they understood we are hearing impaired!

初めて体験をさせていただき、高いところが苦手な私でも大変楽しめました！
また、私たち聴覚障害者だと理解してくれたことが一番嬉しかったでした！

First of all, the location is Waikiki, so I was attracted by how close it was to my hotel, allowing me to walk there in my swimsuit.

This was my second time surfing in my life, but I was a bit anxious because the waves were high that day. At first, I was flustered after entering the water and kept failing to stand up as I had been taught, but after several attempts, I became more relaxed and was able to stand up calmly as instructed, managing to ride the waves for a longer time!! Riding the waves was so much fun… it felt amazing♪ I want to go again.

まず、場所がワイキキなので、宿泊のホテルから水着で歩いて行ける近さに惹かれました。

今回は人生で2回目のサーフィンでしたが、この日は波が高く少し不安でした。
海に入ってから初めは気が焦り、教わった立ち上がり方ができずにすぐに立ち上がろうとして失敗していましたが、何度もチャレンジするうちに余裕が出て、レッスン通りに落ち着いて立ち上がれるようになり、長くボードに立って波に乗ることができました!!
波に乗れると楽しくて楽しくて…最高な気分でした♪
また行きたいなぁ。

I chose something that was about 90m, and I enjoyed it enough. I'm very satisfied. Thank you. It was cold on the boat, so it might be a good idea to bring a larger towel.

たしか90mのものにしましたが充分楽しめました。とても満足です。ありがとうございます。ボートのうえは寒かったので大きめのタオルを持ってくとよいかも

I went surfing for the first time at Waikiki Beach, which is just a short walk from the hotel. First, I received instruction from the instructor on paddling and how to stand on the board at the beach. After the practice on the beach, it was time to hit the ocean! The instructor gave me advice on when to catch the waves, so I was able to ride them successfully. The hour flew by, and I had so much fun catching waves multiple times. I definitely want to surf at Waikiki again next time!

ホテルから歩いてすぐにあるワイキキビーチで初めてサーフィンをしました。
まずビーチでインストラクターのパドリングやボードの立ち方等の指導を受けました。
ビーチでの予行練習の後はいざ海へ！
インストラクターが波に乗るタイミングをアドバイスしてくれたのでうまく波に乗れました。1時間あっという間でしたが何度も波乗りができてとても楽しかったです。
次回も是非ワイキキサーフィンしたいです！！

The title mentioned (canoe surfing, surfing, stand-up paddle lessons), and I thought I could choose one of the three, so I purchased it. However, when I arrived at the location, I was surprised to find out that it was only a ticket for canoe surfing. It seemed that there were several groups before us who had a similar experience... I was really disappointed since we went to Hawaii to surf. In the end, thanks to the consideration of the local staff, I was able to pay the regular lesson fee and go surfing, but it was disappointing since they advertised a low price. The school itself had a fun instructor, and I really enjoyed it!

タイトルには（カヌーサーフィン、サーフィン、スタンドアップパドルレッスン）とあり、3つの中から好きなのを選べるのかと思い購入しました。
しかし、現地に行ってビックリ…カヌーサーフィン購入のみのチケットであるという説明でした。私たちより以前にも同じようなグループは何組かいた様子…サーフィンをしにハワイへ行ったのにとても残念です。
最終的には現地のスタッフさんの配慮で、通常レッスン料金を支払いサーフィンはできましたが、安い料金を売りにしていたのに残念です。スクール自体はノリのいい先生でとても楽しめました！

I was informed at the last minute on the day of the event that the meeting time was different, and I was unable to go parasailing. I was very disappointed. I really felt let down. If I could have been contacted the day before, I could have made arrangements. I believe that confirming the schedule the day before would prevent others from having the same experience as mine in the future.

当日のぎりぎりに、集合時間が違うことを知らされ、パラセーリングができませんでした。とても残念でした。本当がっかりです。
できれば、前日に連絡をいただければ対応できたのにと思います。前日の予定の確認を確認すれば、今後私たちみたいな思いをすなくてすむと思います。

Walking along the coast is quite pleasant, and it would have been even better if the weather had been nice. The horses were also very well-behaved.

海沿いを歩くのは結構気持ちの良いもので、天気が良ければもっと良かったです。お馬さんもお利口さんでした。

It was great that there was no time needed for travel since it was held at Waikiki Beach. Also, it was nice to receive the photo data after the lesson.

ワイキキビーチで行うため、移動に要する時間が無いことが良かったです。また、レッスン終了後に写真データを貰えることも良かったです。

I had participated in other countries, and it was indeed fun. My husband, who has a fear of heights, and I jumped together, and although he was scared at first, by the end, he seemed satisfied and said he had a great time. The staff, including foreign members, took photos for others as well, and the experience flew by. I want to do it again!

他の国で参加したことがあったのですが、やはり楽しかったです。高所恐怖症の旦那と二人で飛んだのですが、最初は怖がっていた旦那も最後は楽しかった～と満足のようでした。他の方の時もスタッフの外人の方が写真を撮ってくれたりと、あっという間でした。またやりたいです！

Awesome event and very professional staff. Had a great time and would recommend for everyone

I had a great time. The local staff were accustomed to dealing with Japanese people, which made everything smooth.

非常に楽しかったです。現地スタッフの方は日本人への対応に慣れていてスムーズでした。

We signed up to do the extreme ParaSailing. We had so much fun. The shuttle picked us up across the street from our hotel. The two guys in charge of the boat were so funny. They offered us a picture package and all of our pictures turned out great! My only complaint would have to be that the ride itself is very short. I wish it would have been longer. We would definantly do it again... Next time to 1000 ft.

I was able to see from a very high position, so the view was great.

とても高い位置で見れたので、景色がとてもよく見えてよかったです。

It was exciting & fun experience. I thought it will be scary, and windy in the air. Instead, it was peaceful and quiet. I wish it was longer. My 74 years old mother enjoyed and wanted to stay in the air much longer.

I participated with a friend at 90m. At first, I was anxious, but once I flew, it felt amazing and was the best! While flying, it was incredibly quiet, and I could see the ocean stretching far away, which felt surreal! The staff were cheerful, and it was a lot of fun! I felt like I wanted to keep flying forever! I definitely recommend experiencing it at least once!☆

友達と90mで参加しました。
最初は不安でしたが、飛んでみると気持ちよすぎて最高です！
飛んでる間は、すごい静かで海がずっーと遠くまで見れて不思議な気分になります！！！
スタッフさんも陽気でとても楽しかったです！
ずっと飛んでいたいと思ったくらいです！
是非一度体験してください☆

My first time parasailing and I was very nervous. When we got to the dock to where we were going to depart the crew and check in were very cool and assured me that I was going to have a good time. They were right! I had a blast. I was not that nervous going up and being up there for what amounted to be the perfect amount of time(do 600ft or more....it is worth it). Get the photo package....the guys on the boat will take a whole bunch of pictures of you for $30 and give you the SD card when done. It is something that is a must do when in Oahu. Just awesome!

It was my first experience, and it was an incredibly pleasant time beyond my imagination. I was surprised by the stable space when we ascended into the sky with the parachute. Up there, it felt like a different world, an experience where I couldn't hear the voices of the two of us, making it feel like a different dimension. It was truly comfortable. I am thinking of challenging it again with the two of us. Also, we had many photos taken as requested, capturing some great moments, which made it even more memorable.

Thank you very much.

初めての体験で、初めての体感で、想像以上の大変心地良かった時間でした。
パラシュートで上空に上がった時の安定した空間には驚かさせました。上空では二人の声しけ聞こえない経験したことの無い別世界、異次元空間を感じさせるものでした。
本当に心地良かったです。
再度、二人でチャレンジしようと思っております。
また、お願いした写真もたくさん撮っていただいて、なかなかのシャッターチャンスで、更に記念となりました。

ありがとうございました。

The best experience while visiting Hawaii....must be done by all travelers....will definitely do this again with extreme Para-sailing guys. Crew members are very friendly. The boat captain was extremely professional. He knows what he is doing and maneuver the boat very smoothly. Totally worth for the money I spend...

I used this service for my honeymoon. I was worried about whether the shuttle bus would actually come, but it arrived on time and called out names loudly, which was helpful. Until we reached the port, the guide spoke in English, but they also provided simple sightseeing information, so I wasn't bored. As mentioned in the reviews, I took motion sickness medicine beforehand. The waves got extremely rough as we went further out, so it's definitely better to take it. There were four groups of Japanese and two groups of non-Japanese, making a total of six groups. We were the last ones, and waiting for a long time can get a bit tedious. The order is determined by who arrives first before getting on the boat, so if you get there early, you might be first in line. It was my first time parasailing, and it was not scary at all; it was really fun! The view of Oahu from above was wonderful. If I go to Hawaii again, I would like to do it again. They provided explanations in broken Japanese, so it was fine even if I didn't understand English.

ハネムーンで利用しました。
送迎のバスもちゃんと来るのか不安でしたが、時間通りに来て大きな声で名前を呼んでくれるので助かりました。
港に着くまでは英語でしたが、簡単な観光案内もしてくれて退屈しませんでした。
口コミにあったように酔い止めを飲んでいきました。沖に行くにつれて波が物凄く荒くなるので絶対飲んだほうがいいです。
私の時は日本人が４組、日本人以外が２組の計６組でした。私たちが一番最後だったのですが、一番最後だと待ち時間が長くて段々飽きてきます。順番を決めるのは、ボートに乗る前に早く来た順みたいな感じなので早めにボート近くにいると一番目になるかもしれませんね。
初めてのパラセイリングだったのですが、全然怖くなくすごく楽しかったです！！空の上から見るオアフ島はとても素敵でした。またハワイに行くことがあればやりたいと思います。カタコトの日本語ですが、説明もしてくれるので英語が分からなくても大丈夫でした。

My first experience surfing. I was worried, but I was able to ride the wave from the first wave. It's strange how I could stand. The instructions were in English, but there were no problems. I recommend it!

初体験のサーフィン
心配でしたが１ウエーブから波にのれました
立てる自分が不思議なくらい
英語の説明ですが問題なし。オススメ

You can enjoy the view of Diamond Head from high above Waikiki. Even those with a fear of heights can slowly ascend into the sky and have a good time. The boat that goes out to sea can be quite rocky, which may cause some seasickness, but you will get used to it after a little patience.

空中高くワイキキ、ダイヤモンドヘッドを眺めます。
高所恐怖症の方でも ゆっくりと空に上がって行くので楽しめます。沖へ出るボートの揺れが結構大きいので船酔い気味なりますが少し我慢すれば慣れました。

The explanation is mostly in English, but they provide a simple explanation in Japanese. It was terrifying to watch, but once you actually ride it, it's not scary at all. It's about 10 minutes long, and it feels like flying in the sky, which is very enjoyable. I want to participate again.

説明はほぼ英語ですが、簡単な日本語で説明をしてくれます。
見ているときは恐怖でしたが、実際乗ると全く怖くありません。
１０分ほどですが、空を飛んでるようでとても楽しいです。
また参加したいです。

I participated with a friend.

It was my first time parasailing, and I chose the 150m plan. Rather than feeling thrilling due to the height, it was a very graceful experience. If you’re not extremely afraid of heights, it’s not a scary activity.

I rode on the boat with 12 people from three other groups, and the most fun part was getting to know the other groups and having a great time together!! Also, the staff were very energetic and made the experience even more exciting!!

友人と参加をしてきました。

パラセーリングは初めてで、150mのプランですが、高くてスリルがあるというより非常に優雅な感じです。極端な高所恐怖症でなければ怖いということはないアクティビティです。

他の参加者3グループと12名でボートに乗りましたが、
他のグループと仲良くなって盛り上がることが一番楽しかったです！！
あと、スタッフの方もとてもテンションが高くとても盛り上がりました！！

The ride was fun but the quick dip into the ocean was not. Wear a swim suit, their going to do it to you.

I participated as part of a beginner group. It was great to have a Japanese instructor who taught us various things. However, I ended up purchasing a $30 photo CD-ROM (which contained pictures taken by the school during the lesson), but unfortunately, almost all the photos were backlit and only showed shadows. Moreover, most of the pictures were of other surfers, leaving me wondering what the purpose of the purchase was...

初心者のグループで参加しました。
日本人インストラクターだったので、いろいろと教えてもらえてよかったです。
ただ、最後に30ドルの写真CD-ROM（スクールの方がレッスン中の風景を撮影してくれたもの）を購入したのですが、残念なことに、ほぼ逆光で影しか見えず、しかも、ほかのサーファーの写真ばかりで、なんのために購入したのか…という感じでした。

At 56 years old, I took on my first challenge. I was the only man among young women, along with my wife and daughter. Perhaps because of that, I was mostly left alone. The pre-coaching and advice on the water were spot on, and I was able to ride from the very beginning. It felt great, and I spent quite a long time on the board, so paddling back to shore was tough. My knees were sore from rubbing against the board, but it was an incredibly fun time. The feeling of riding the waves and gliding over the ocean was the best. I also received an original shirt, and the images of the 30 CD were very beautiful and well-captured, making it a great value for the price. I'm really glad I participated. Compared to various shops, this was the best one.

56歳で初挑戦。
若い女性たちにまじって、妻と娘と。男は私一人でしたが、そのせいか、ほとんど放っておかれました。
事前のコーチも海上のアドバイスも的確で、初めから乗れました。
気持ちが良くて、何回もかなり長い時間乗ったので、沖まで戻るパドリングが辛いこと、辛いこと。
ボードを両足で挟み込んで膝の内側が擦れていたかったのですが、とにかく楽しい時間でした。
波に乗れている感覚、海の上を滑るような感覚、最高でした。
オリジナルのシャツも貰えるし、30💲のCDの画像もとても綺麗で沢山撮影されているし、コスパも最高です。
本当に参加して良かったです。
色々なショップと比較しても一番良いショップでした。

I experienced surfing for the first time. All the instructions and explanations were in English, and I was really anxious at first, but there was someone who could speak Japanese, so they explained everything in Japanese, which made me feel relieved. After the explanation, we headed straight to the beach!! From there, we immediately went out to the ocean and started surfing. It was scary at first, but once I was able to ride the wave, I became hooked! They also provided transportation back, and I truly made wonderful memories! I definitely want to surf again.

初めてサーフィンを体験しました。指導や説明が全て英語で、最初は不安がいっぱいでしたが、日本語が話せる方がいらしたので、日本語で説明して頂き安心しました。説明を受けたあとはもう目の前のビーチへ！！そこからはもういきなり沖に出てサーフィンが始まりました。最初は怖かったですが、一度乗れるとやみつきになります！帰りは送迎もして頂き、本当に楽しい思い出が出来ました！また絶対サーフィンがやりたいです。

I experienced 110 meters. It was a lot of fun both on the boat and while flying in the sky!

110メートル体験しました。船の上も空を飛んでいる間もとても楽しかったです！

The wind was very strong on the day, so the staff suggested, "Stand-up paddleboarding can be quite difficult because the wind hits your body directly, so surfing might be more enjoyable. What do you think?"

To be honest, I was interested in surfing, but I never thought I would be able to stand on the waves, as I had signed up for stand-up paddleboarding. I appreciated their consideration and decided to challenge myself with surfing for the first time in my life!

First, I received a brief lesson on basic movements on the water at Waikiki Beach, and then it was time to head into the ocean. They taught us in Japanese, saying things like, "Paddle (with your hands)~" and "Stand up~!" which helped me stand nicely on the waves♪

A fellow participant who was surfing for the second time mentioned, "The waves in Waikiki are gentle, so they're easy for beginners to ride." I also never expected to be able to ride the waves so quickly, so I think the staff's teaching skills are excellent! (*＾-＾*)

After all, when you come to Hawaii, you have to enjoy the ocean too, right?♪♪ It's a very easy experience to enjoy surfing since it's within walking distance from the Waikiki Hotel, and there's no need to move the surfboards☆

I highly recommend it! (*＾＾*)

当日の風がとても強かったので、スタッフの方から「スタンドアップパドルはもろに身体に風が当たってやりにくいので、サーフィンの方が楽しめますけどどうしますか？」と提案されました。
実のところ、サーフィンに興味がありましたがまさか波の上に立てるとは思っておらず、スタンドアップパドルを申し込んでいた私。。。
ご配慮に感謝し、人生初！のサーフィンに挑戦しました！！
最初にワイキキのビーチで簡単な水の上での動作レクチャーを受け、いざ海の中へ☆
日本語で、「漕いで（手で）~」とか「立って~！」とか教えてくれるので、波の上でもいい感じで立つことができました♪♪
一緒に参加した、サーフィン2回目の方が「ワイキキの波は穏やかなので、初心者の方には乗りやすい」と言われていました。
私もまさか！すぐに波の上に乗れるとは思っていなかったので、スタッフの方のティーチングの上手さは素晴らしい！と思っています(*＾-＾*)
やっぱり、ハワイに来たら海の中も満喫しなきゃですよね~♪♪
ワイキキホテルから徒歩で訪れ、サーフボードの移動もないのでとっても楽にサーフィンが楽しめる体験だと思います☆
お勧めします(*＾＾*)

I was worried when I read in the review that "you can get quite seasick," but I had so much fun that I forgot about any seasickness! On the same boat, there was another Japanese couple along with a family of eight Americans. Two American staff members were also on board. They communicated with us in broken Japanese, so it wasn't a problem even if you can't speak English. However, even though we didn't say we didn't want to get wet, everyone ended up staying dry. We were fully prepared to get wet, wearing our swimsuits... But in the end, it was so much fun that I was very satisfied! ★

レビューに「かなり船酔いする」とあり心配でしたが、船酔いも忘れるくらい楽しかったです！
同じ船には、私たちともう1組の日本人夫婦、あとアメリカ人の8人組の家族でした。そこに、アメリカ人スタッフ2人が乗ってくれます。スタッフさんは、片言の日本語で対応して下さるので、英語を話せなくても問題はありませんでした。
ただ、「濡れたくない」と言っていないのに全員濡れずに終わりました。私たちは濡れる気マンマンで水着を着ていたのですが・・・。
でも、結果的にはとっても楽しかったので大満足★です。
