Waikiki
I experienced this on the first day, and it was absolutely amazing to see all of Hawaii!!! The vast mountains and the sparkling ocean were breathtaking, and even when we landed, we touched down on the water a little bit. I think this is an activity you should definitely try. I want to do it again!!
初日に体験しましたが、ハワイを一望してすっごい最高!!!
広大な山々とキラキラとした海が見れて降りる時も少し海に着水してもらったり、これはやった方がいいアクティビティだと思います。
またやりたい!!
I was a bit anxious since it was my first time. The instructor mentioned that the guidance would be in Japanese, but we were able to communicate well, so I was satisfied! Even as a beginner, the instructor helped me skillfully, and I was able to ride the waves in no time during the one-hour session. Falling off the board was not a problem at all. I definitely want to participate again!
初めてだったので不安もありました。インストラクターは指導単語は日本語でと言った感じでしたが、十分コミュニケーションが取れたので満足です!
初めてでもインストラクターが上手に手伝ってくれた為、波にも乗れてあっという間の1時間。ボードから落ちても問題ありません。是非また参加したい内容でした!
I participated with three friends. Everyone was nervous since it was our first time, but the staff were very friendly and made us laugh, which helped ease our tension! All three of us agreed that it was so great that we wanted to do it again! I would like to participate again when I go to Hawaii!
友人3人で参加。みんなはじめてでドキドキだったけど、スタッフの方がたくさん声をかけてくれたり笑わせてくれて緊張もほぐれました!3人とも「もう一回やりたい!」と声が揃うほど最高でした!またハワイに行くときは参加したいと思います!
The tour started at 5 PM, and there were no Japanese participants, just four groups out on the water. It might have been fine if we had gone parasailing first, but since it was last, I got seasick from the waiting time. It was quite close. However, the activities were amazing. We even saw a double rainbow.
夕方17時からのツアー、日本人はおらず4組で海にでました。最初にパラセーリングに乗れると大丈夫だったかもしれませんが、最後だったため待ち時間で船酔い。かなりギリギリでした。が、アクティビティは最高。ダブルレインボーもみれました。
The activity itself was fine, but it seems that the management of the transportation is not going well. I recommend obtaining a mobile number that you can use to call on-site.
アクティビティ自体は問題ありませんが送迎のマネージメントがうまくいってないようです。 現地で電話できる携帯番号を取得しておくことをお勧めします。
I have done parasailing several times, but this was the highest in terms of altitude and airtime, allowing me to enjoy a leisurely stroll in the sky! The top of Diamond Head was almost at eye level, and I was able to enjoy a view looking down on Waikiki, so I’m glad I chose the 150m parasailing. You do get dropped into the sea quite a bit, but that was fun too. The staff spoke a bit of Japanese and had a sense of humor, which made it enjoyable. They also took plenty of photos while we were flying. However, since the boat has no roof, sun protection is essential.
パラセイリングは何度かやったことがありますが、高さ・滞空時間ともに過去最高で、ゆっくり空中散歩を楽しめました!
ダイヤモンドヘッドの頂上がほぼ目線の先にあり、ワイキキの街もかなり眼下に見下ろせる景色を味わえたので150mのパラセイリングにしてよかったと思います。
海にはガッツリ落とされますが、それも楽しかったです。スタッフさんも片言の日本語をしゃべりユーモアがあって楽しませてくれました。飛んでる間の写真もたくさん撮ってくれます。
ただ、船には屋根がないので日焼け対策は必須ですね。
We traveled to the parasailing location by a small boat. During the ride, the cheerful instructor kept the atmosphere lively and played music, which made it a lot of fun! After moving over the bright blue sea for a while, we took off, and the view of Oahu from the sky was truly breathtaking—a rare sight that can only be seen here. Each group had about 5 minutes, and when we participated, there were four other groups, so there was a bit of a wait. Since the boat kept moving while we waited, those who are prone to motion sickness might want to have some motion sickness medication. Lastly, it was great that we could purchase photos taken by the instructor with a camera on an SD card (it cost an additional $30, but I bought it). I would definitely like to request this again when I visit Hawaii!
パラセーリングをする場所まで小型の船で移動しました。その間も陽気なインストラクターの方が盛り上げてくれたり音楽を流してくれたりでとても楽しかったです!真っ青な海の上をしばらく移動した後に飛んだのですが、空から見るオアフ島は本当に絶景で、ここでしか見られない貴重な景色でした。大体1組5分程度で、私たちが参加した時には他に4組の方々がいらっしゃったので少し待ち時間はありました。待っている間もずっと船が動いているので、酔いやすい方は酔い止めがあった方がいいかもしれません。最後にインストラクターの方がカメラで撮ってくれた写真をSDで購入できたのも良かったです(別途30ドルかかりましたが購入しました)またハワイを訪れた際には是非ここでお願いしたいです。
Seeing Diamond Head and Waikiki Beach from the sky over the ocean is amazing. The last jabon was only a little wet. You might feel a bit seasick.
海の上で空から見るダイヤモンドヘッドとワイキキビーチは最高です。最後のジャボンも少し濡れる程度でした。ちょっと船酔いはするかも。
It was my first experience, so I chose the lowest option at 90m. I was worried that my 9-year-old son would be scared, but he was totally fine and enjoyed it. Next time, I want to challenge myself to 150m. Since I took motion sickness medication, I didn't get seasick, and it became a great memory.
初めての体験だったので、一番低い90mにしました。
9歳の息子が怖がるかと心配しましたが、全然大丈夫で、楽しんでいました。
次回は150mにチャレンジしたいです。
酔い止めを飲んでいたので船酔いもなく、良い思い出になりました。
Friendly staff and a great experience! Would definitely go back!!
I participated in parasailing at a height of 150 meters with my daughter. The staff who provided transportation to the hotel were very kind, which made us feel at ease. On the boat, the crew took many photos for us, and we enjoyed a wonderful time taking in the views of Waikiki from 150 meters high. I thought it might be a bit scary with the wind, but my daughter seemed to enjoy it more that way. The photos taken at the end are available on an SD card, but if you pay by card, it costs $35, which is $5 more than paying in cash. When I come to Hawaii again, I would like to participate once more.
高さ150mのパラセイリングを、娘と二人で参加しました。ホテルまでの送迎ではスタッフの方がとても親切な方で安心し、またボートではクルーの方がたくさん写真を撮って下さったですし、150mの高さから眺めたワイキキの景色を堪能したりと楽しい時間を過ごすことができました。
少し風があり怖いかな?と思いましたが、娘はその方が楽しかったようです。最後に撮って下さった写真はSDカードでいただけますが、カード支払いだとcashより5ドル高く35ドルでした。
ハワイに来た時は、また参加したいと思います。
Waikiki Dive Center is a small dive shop that works with both beginners and experienced divers. The boat is small (no bathroom). We had 7 divers on the boat, including instructors. Water is provided, but you must bring your own food.
Since this was my sixth time diving (not certified), they did a quick review of skills with me, but I did not need much instruction. My dive instructor pointed out some interesting sea creatures including a small octopus (too fast for me to get a picture). Lots or turtles at this dive site.
Only down side was the second dive was at the same site, but we did explore more on the 2nd dive.
I am considering going back there to get certified.
They picked us up on time and took us straight to the yacht harbor. From there, we went quite far out on a cruiser, and that alone was a lot of fun! The tour guide spoke broken Japanese, but I could understand the explanations somewhat! Since it was a special occasion, we went for the 120m option, but it was so high that it was terrifying! However, it was a lot of fun and made for great memories. The view overlooking Waikiki was amazing, and I wanted to capture the scenery from above in photos! If I ever come back to Hawaii, I would definitely like to do it again. I gave a $10 tip to each of the two staff members. The two overseas guests who were with us seemed to have given $5 for both. I purchased the data from the photos taken with a DSLR on an SD card for $35 as a keepsake. I'm looking forward to seeing them on my PC when I get home!
時間通りに迎えにきてくれてそのままヨットハーバーへ。そちらからクルーザーでかなり沖の方までいき、それだけでも楽しかったです!添乗員の方も片言の日本語で何となく説明がわかる感じです!
せっかくだからと120mにしましたが、余りに高くて恐怖でした!でもとても楽しかったし良い思い出になりました。ワイキキを見下ろすような、素晴らしい景色だったので上空からの景色を写真に収めたかったです!またハワイに来ることがあれば是非してみたいです。チップは10ドルずつ、2名の方に渡しました。一緒に乗り合わせていた海外の方は2名分を5ドル渡していた様でした。一眼レフで撮影してくれたデータはSDカードにして、35ドルで買えましたので記念に購入しました。帰ってPCで見るのが楽しみです!
It was my first time parasailing, so I experienced a bit of seasickness and felt a little dizzy up in the air, but thanks to the good weather, I was able to see beautiful scenery!
初めてのパラセーリングだったので、少し船酔いと、空の上でも酔ってしまいましたが、天気が良かったおかげで綺麗な景色を見ることができました!
I had no experience with surfing, but I participated with the feeling that it would be cool to surf in Hawaii. I can't speak English, but I think I was able to prepare the minimum necessary because the staff explained the precautions in Japanese during the video before the lesson. I could somewhat understand the lesson through English words. There were 8 of us with 2 instructors, but 4 of us were able to ride the waves right away, so it was effectively 1 instructor for every 2 people. My own performance wasn't great, but I had fun playing in the waves.
サーフィンは未経験でしたが、ハワイでサーフィンができたらカッコいいだろうなぁという感覚で参加しました。
英語は話せませんが、レッスン前のビデオでの注意事項、スタッフさんとが日本語で説明してくれたので必要最低限の準備はできたと思います。
レッスン自体は英単語でなんとなく理解できました。
8人で2人の先生でしたが、うち4人はすぐに波に乗れたので、実質2人に1人の先生に教えてもらいました。
私自身の出来は悪かったですが、波に遊ばれて楽しかったです。
It was my first time paragliding, but the staff were kind and attentive, making it a reassuring experience. It was the perfect activity for a 60th birthday celebration. Thank you very much!
初めてのパラセーリングでしたが、スタッフの方々が親切丁寧で安心して体験することができました。還暦祝いにはサイコーのアクティビティでした。 ありがとうございました。
The staff, boat, and experience was awesome! The only thing I wish was a bit more clear is the check in time is actually 30 minutes before you load the boat. We walked and had to kill 30 minutes in the heat.
The first time I learned to surf was at Ala Moana, the second time in Lahaina on Maui, and this time I took lessons in Waikiki. There were so many people that I almost collided with others, and since I couldn't avoid them, I had no choice but to jump off my board, which was a bit scary. Well, since this is the birthplace of surfing, I guess it's to be expected. The waves were also higher this time, making it tough for the students. I definitely want to try again.
1回目はアラモアナで、2回目はマウイ島のラハイナ、そして今回はワイキキでサーフィンを習いました。人が多くてぶつかりそうになったり、よけられないからボードから飛び降りるしかないので少し怖かったです。まぁサーフィン発祥の地なので仕方ないかな、波も今回は高めなので、レッスン生にはきつかったです。またリベンジしたいと思います。
I participated with my partner. We traveled out to sea by boat, and the outstanding location for parasailing from there made for a precious moment. I highly recommend it, so definitely give it a try!
彼女と2人で参加しました。
船で沖まで移動して沖からの抜群のロケーションでパラセイリング貴重なひと時になりました。おすすめなので是非参加してみてください。
I tried parasailing for the first time, and the view of the ocean and Oahu was amazing. There isn't much thrill, so I think anyone who isn't afraid of heights can enjoy it. You can leave anything that might get wet on the boat before the flight, which is reassuring. You can buy an SD card with photos for $30. The quality is good, so I recommend it.
パラセールは初めてしたのですが、海とオアフ島が一望できて最高でした。スリルはそれほどないので高所恐怖症でなければ楽しめると思います。
濡れて困るものは船に置いてからフライト出来るので安心です。
30ドルで写真入りのSDカードを買うことができます。画質もよいのでおすすめです。
I experienced a group lesson with 6 people and 2 instructors. The instructors didn't speak Japanese, so the explanations were in English, which some people found a bit difficult to understand. However, they spoke in simple English, so I think it will be fine! It was fun!
グループレッスンで体験しましたが、6名で2人のインストラクターさんでした。
インストラクターさんは、日本語ができない?方だったので、英語での説明だったので、なかなか分からない方もいらしたよです。
簡単な英語で話してくださるので、大丈夫だと思いますよ!楽しかったです!
The person who picked us up spoke a little Japanese and was polite, which made me feel at ease. When we actually went parasailing, the staff were all locals, but they were very accustomed to Japanese tourists. There were five groups on the boat, including us, so we spent quite a bit of time rocking on the boat, which made me feel quite seasick. My friend was on the verge of throwing up. If you take motion sickness medication properly, it's the best tour where you can enjoy a panoramic view of Waikiki!
送迎の方はやや日本語を話せる方でしたし、丁寧だったので、安心でした。
実際にパラセーリングをする際は完全に現地の方でしたが、みなさん日本人慣れしていました。
私が乗った船には私たち含め、5組がおり、その分船に揺られる時間も多かったので、船酔いは結構きつかったです。友人は吐く寸前でした。
酔い止めをしっかり飲めば、ワイキキを一望できる最高のツアーです!
- I waited a little before the pickup time, but when the time came, no one showed up. I became worried and called the contact number, but I couldn't get through, so I was left feeling anxious for 30 minutes. They mentioned it was due to traffic, but not being able to reach the contact number is a separate issue.
- I was told, "Since the start was delayed by 30 minutes, the end will also be pushed back by 30 minutes," but in the end, it finished at the original time.
- They have rash guards available for rent, but there are no bottoms, so women who are concerned about that need to prepare their own.
・ピックアップ時間の少し前から待っていたが時間になっても来なかったため、心配になり問い合わせ先へ電話したが繋がらず、ただただ不安なまま30分待たされた。交通事情とのことだったが問い合わせ先と連絡が取れないのは別の問題。
・「開始が30分遅れたから終了も30分ずらす」と言われたが、結果的に終了は元の時間どおりだった。
・ラッシュガード貸出があるが、下は無いため女性で気になる方は自身で準備が必要。
I challenged myself to 150 meters. It was higher than I imagined, and I was scared at first, but once I got used to it, it felt great. I'm glad I decided to go for the full 150 meters instead of a half-hearted height. The staff were friendly and took lots of photos for a fee. The final splash of water was surprisingly fun.
150mに挑戦。想像以上に高く、始めは怖かったけど慣れると気持ちいい。
中途半端な高さにするのではなく150mにチャレンジしてよかった。
スタッフの方のノリも良く、有料だが写真をいっぱいとってくれた。最後にお約束のお水ジャブンが意外と楽しい。
The pickup took quite a while. We waited for 40 minutes, and to be honest, we were worried if it would even come. We only caught one fish, and the fishing gear was quite old, with squid being the only bait available. There were about three people on the same tour with us. There was no instruction on how to fish, so I guess only experienced people could catch anything? But I can only say that the crew's cheerfulness and the location were absolutely fantastic!
送迎はかなり待ちます。
私達は40分待ち、正直来るのか不安でした。
釣果は1匹、、釣り具も年季もの、エサはイカのみです。
同じツアーで連れていたのは3人くらい?でしょうか。
釣り方もレクチャーはないので経験豊かな人しか釣れないのかな?
でもクルーの陽気さとロケーションは最高としか言えません!
I participated first thing in the morning, so the ending time was also in the morning. It was great that there was no wasted time. I've done parasailing a few times, so I chose a height of 150 meters. It was really pleasant and the best experience. It was still a bit chilly in the morning, so after getting splashed in the sea, I felt a little cold. The foreign girl whose birthday it was that day was getting dunked in the water as a special treat, so by the time she returned to the boat, she was shivering (laughs). That must have become a good memory for her too (*^_^*). I’ve definitely decided to participate again next time!
朝一番に参加したので、終了時間も朝^^
時間に無駄がなくてすごく良かったです。
パラセーリングは何度かやっているので、高さは150メートルにしました。
本当に気持ちよくて最高でした。
朝はまだ少し肌寒かったので、海ポチャされた後はちょっと寒かったです。
その日が誕生日だった外国人の女の子は、大サービスで海に沈みまくられていたので、船に戻ったときには震えていました(笑)
それもいい思い出になったことでしょう(*^_^*)
次回もまた参加決定です!!
I had an absolutely amazing time!!! The boat was smaller than I expected, and there were just four groups of Japanese people, which was just right! The waves and wind were thrilling! If you're even a little worried about seasickness, taking motion sickness medication is a must to enjoy the experience! The staff was really entertaining!
I was nervous before taking off, but once we were in the air, it was so much fun, and the view of the blue ocean, Diamond Head, and Waikiki was incredible!!! I put my smartphone in a waterproof case and hung it around my neck, and I was able to take photos while flying!
When you drop into the water, they probably adjust based on the people. You can purchase the SD card with the photos taken. I paid $30 in cash. This experience was truly the best! I highly recommend it!!!
めちゃくちゃ楽しかったです!!!
船は思ってたより小さくて、日本人ばかりの四組でしたが丁度いいくらい!波も風も迫力ありで味わえます!船酔いが少しでも心配な人は楽しむために酔い止めは必須!
スタッフの盛り上げがとてもおもしろい!
飛ぶまでがドキドキでしたが、いざ飛んでみたらめちゃくちゃ楽しくて、青い海とダイヤモンドヘッドにワイキキの景色が最高!!!
スマホを防水ケースに入れて首にかけてましたが、飛んでる間も撮影できました!
海にポチャンはたぶん人をみてして加減してくれます。
写真撮影をしてくれたSDカードが購入できます。30ドルで私はドルで支払いました。
この経験は本当に最高!
ぜひおススメです!!!
I've used this several times!
It's a parasailing tour with some really funky boat captains!
On my last day in Hawaii, I always look down at the city of Waikiki from the sky here and think, "I want to come back next time!"
何度か利用しています!
とてもファンキーな船頭さんたちがいるパラセーリングツアー!
ハワイの最終日は、いつもここで、空からワイキキの街を眺めて、また次回も来よう!と思ってます!
It was my first time surfing, and I was worried about participating alone, especially since I'm not very good at English, but I had a great time. The instructor provided careful guidance in simple English and broken Japanese, and I was able to stand on the board from the very first time. Thank you very much.
サーフィンは初めてなうえ、ひとりでの参加、しかも英語はそんなに得意ではないので参加するまでは心配でしたが、とても楽しい時間を過ごせました。
インストラクターは簡単な英語とカタコトの日本語で丁寧に指導してくださり、一回目からボードの上に立つことが出来ました。
ありがとうございました。
I participated with my 7-year-old daughter.
It was her first time paragliding.
Since she loves roller coasters, I thought she would enjoy it, so we chose the 120-meter option.
When we took off, she seemed scared and cried! (laughs)
But as she got used to it, she started to enjoy it, albeit nervously. (^_^)
We hadn't planned to buy photos, but we decided to purchase them as a keepsake.
They are provided on an SD card.
7歳の娘と二人で参加しました。
娘は初めてのパラセイリングでした。
ジェットコースター好きなので、喜ぶと思い120メートルを選びました。
いざ、飛び?出すと怖かったようで、泣きました!笑
だんだんなれてくると、ビビりながらも楽しんでました(^_^)
写真は購入予定ではなかったですが、記念にと購入しました。
SDカードで渡されます。
