Purchasing on line was a breeze. Check in was quick and easy. The all-female crew was professional, knowledgeable, and FUN. Cruising along the Waikiki shore was exhilarating and relaxing at the same time, and we had no problem seeing whales. We even got to see the illusive tail flip! Cannot recommend this enough. It was the highlight of our vacation. (We were first-time Waikiki visitors)

There was only one point of interest, which felt a bit lonely, but the staff were all friendly. Although it's not directly related to the tour, the meeting place is a homeless hub, so the atmosphere isn't very good, and it's something to be cautious about.
ポイントは一ヶ所のみで少し寂しい感じでしたが、スタッフの方々は皆さんフレンドリーでした。ツアーとは直接関係ないですが、集合場所はホームレス拠点なので、あまり雰囲気は良くないし、要注意です。

It was a great way to start the day. Super convenient if you're staying at a hotel on Kalakaua Ave. Just walk to the Duke Statue on Waikiki Beach, check-in and board. No driving to the harbor and dealing with parking. The crew were all very professional and super helpful to nervous, first time snorkelers. They rent all that you need but they don't have fins so if you want/need fins bring your own.
We stopped on the way out to observe some dolphins so if you're lucky its not just turtles you'll see. Definitely worth it and we will go again the next time we visit.

I was wondering if I would be able to see anything in December, but I boarded the boat with a little hope. The cheerful and polite staff welcomed us warmly. Despite the strong sea breeze, they called out to each group of passengers and took photos one after another. I got to see the whale I had been longing for and the spouting water. I am grateful to the staff who anchored the boat in the sea and waited patiently. The vast blue ocean stretched out as far as the eye could see. I hope to ride this boat again someday for whale watching. By then, I’m sure I’ll be able to meet the whales…

Overall, we enjoyed the trip. Staff was great! However, the snorkel spot was crowded with lots of other groups. It felt like you were bumping into people the whole time. We saw some turtles, but there wasn't much else to see. Also, the parking instructions are unclear. All it said was they validate in the garage, so I parked in the obvious giant garage. But they don't validate in that one (the Hale Koa). They only validate in the Hilton Garage which is harder to find. I hope they aren't unclear on purpose...that cost an extra $39!

With anticipation, I set sail, feeling the pleasant breeze and gazing at the coastline of Waikiki Beach. However, as time went by, my feelings became complicated with disappointment and sadness about not being able to see much. But when the boat finally reached the point where dolphins gather, everyone started taking pictures, and somehow that helped distract me a little.
As for my thoughts, I felt that we needed to go a bit further out to see more. Also, since the boat rocked quite a bit, I thought medication would be necessary.
期待を持ちながら、出航し気持ちいい風を感じながら、ワイキキビーチの海岸を眺め、海を見つめていましたが、時間がどんどん経つにつれ、段々見れないことに気持ちが、落ち込むことと、残念に思うことに複雑になってきましたが、最後イルカの集まるポイント!?に船が着くとみんな写真をパシャパシャと、何となくそれで少し、気がまぎれたようなかんじになりました!?
感想としては、もう少し沖に出ないと、見れるものも見れないのではと思った。
また、船が、だいぶ揺れるので、薬は必要と思った。

The tour was conducted only in English, but even for us, who hardly speak any English, we managed just fine. It's not guaranteed that you'll definitely see whales, but they extended the time by about an hour beyond the scheduled time, and we were able to see them. I was really happy that they were so flexible.
Even though I had seen Waikiki from the ocean on TV, the actual scenery was amazing. Even if we hadn't seen any whales, it was a tour that left us completely satisfied! If I come to Hawaii during the whale watching season again, I will definitely want to join this tour.
ツアー自体は英語のみの案内なのですが、英語がほとんどできない私達でもなんとかなりました。
クジラは必ず見えるとはもちろん確定されていません。ただ、予定していた時刻より1h時間ほど延長してくださり無事に見ることができました。ここまで融通を効かせてくださることも本当に嬉しかったですし
沖から見るワイキキはテレビで見たことがあっても実際の風景は素晴らしく、仮にクジラが見えなかったとしても十分満足ができるツアーでした!
またホエールウォッチングができる時期にハワイに来たら必ず参加したいツアーです。

I couldn't see any fish, let alone sea turtles. Everyone got bored and quickly went back on the boat, just cruising for the remaining time. It wasn't interesting, and I was freezing. The best memory was seeing a wild seal on the beach before getting on the boat. I'm disappointed.
ウミガメどころか、魚もろくに見えませんでした。
みんなつまんないから早々に船に上がり、あと残った時間クルージングしてるだけです。面白くもないし、寒くて仕方ありませんでした。
船に乗る前に砂浜で野生のアザラシを見れたのが1番な思い出でした。がっかり。

It might be the same everywhere, but I was forced to wear a buoy around my waist and was bombarded with English instructions. Even when I wanted to get out because it was cold, they wouldn’t let anyone leave until everyone was in the water. If I tried to get out from another spot, I was redirected. It was a terrible place. It would be better if there were Japanese staff present.
どこも同じようなものかも知れませんが、腰に、うき具を付けらされ、一方的に英語でまくし立てられ、寒いから上がろうとしても、全員水に入るまでは、上がらせない。別の所から上がろうとすると回らされる、最低な所でした。日本人スタッフが居るところが良いですね。

Loved this funky yellow catamaran. The people were very helpful. It was my 2 nd time snorkeling and was really nervous about swimming in the ocean. Dillan was great life guard also gave me an extra float so that I feel more secure.
The views the music the drinks and the people were fantastic on this catamaran.
I would highly recommend this tour.
Only recommendation is to probably do the morning cruise as we spotted only 1 sea turtle which was very still. At the very bottom of the ocean floor and extremely few fishes.
Infact we saw more fishes at the sand box.
I would highly recommend it because we had a blast in this trip. It was my husbands 50th birthday and he loved it.

Let's join this tour with an open mind, haha!
First, the staff arrived about 20 minutes late from the meeting time! Well, since the other participants didn't complain, I'll take it as a good sign.
Also, once we got on the boat, there was a long explanation, but it was all in English! (By the way, the email we received right before also came in English, so I used a translation app to understand the content.)
Anyway, after listening to the explanation, we dove in! We saw so many turtles, it was amazing!
On the way back, we even encountered dolphins. It would have been perfect if I understood English, but I still had a great time!
このツアーはおおらかな気持ちで参加しましょう笑
まず、集合時間から20分ぐらい遅れでスタッフさん登場!まぁ他の参加者の方も文句は言ってなかったので良しとします
あと、船に乗ってから説明が長々とありましたが、全部英語!(ちなみに直前に来る案内メールも英語なので翻訳アプリで訳して内容理解しました)
まぁなんとなく説明も聞いてからのダイブ!
亀はこれでもかっ!ってぐらいに会えました。
あと、帰りの船でイルカにも遭遇
英語さえわかれば最高!じゃなくても楽しめました!

First of all, I want to point out that all explanations from the reception until the end were in English. There was no broken Japanese, so those who can't speak English have to tough it out... (laughs) However, they conveyed the important parts through gestures, so I was able to understand somewhat.
Whether it was the location or just luck, we were able to see a lot of sea turtles. I left my smartphone on the boat, so I couldn't take any pictures, but having a water-resistant camera would be even better.
After snorkeling, we went sailing, and the sailing time was longer than I expected (laughs). Many people ended up feeling seasick, so motion sickness medication is a must.
That said, it was a course where we could enjoy beautiful fish, sea turtles, and the atmosphere of Hawaii on the boat, and I had a great time!
まず初めに注意して頂きたいのが、受付から解散までずっと英語での説明です。カタコト日本語とかも無いので英語ができない人は気合いで乗り切るしかありません…(笑)ただ重要な部分はジェスチャーで伝えてくれたのでなんとなくは理解することが出来ました。日本人参加者は私たち以外にいなかったので、他の参加者の方に聞くこともできませんでした…。
場所が良かったのか、運が良かったのか、ウミガメもたくさん見ることができました。スマホは船上に置いてきてしまったので撮影はできなかったのですが、水濡れOKのカメラがあるとなおいいかもしれません。
シュノーケリングが終わったあとはセーリングなのですが、セーリングの時間が思った以上に長いです(笑)船酔いしてしまう人が続出だったので、酔い止めは必須です。
とはいえ、綺麗な魚もウミガメも船上でハワイの風などの雰囲気も楽しめるコースとなっており、とても満喫出来ました!

Since I didn't want to go snorkeling, I thought about taking a boat out to sea, so I searched in the morning and boarded a boat around 2 PM that day. I didn't get to see a honu, but I did see a pod of dolphins! They swam very close to the side of the boat, and I was really happy! You can see Waikiki from the ocean side, and there's a chance to meet dolphins, so I would like to use this service again.
シュノーケルなどをしない為、船に乗って海に出たいなーと思い、午前中に探してその日の14時ごろの船に乗りました。ホヌには会えなかったけど、イルカの群れを見れました!船の横とても近くに泳いでくれて、とっても嬉しかったです!ワイキキを海側から見れるし、イルカに会えるチャンスもあるし、また利用したいです。
