Big Island Manta Ray Night Snorkel Tour Adventure on a Hawaiian Sailing Canoe

Amazing time with mantas

Reviewed by: FJC

Eka Canoe provided a great tour. The small group size gave a really good guide/tourist ratio. The fact that the boat sailed from Keauhou Bay meant that we only had a short (about five minutes) ride to the viewpoint. The experience of watching these creatures was fantastic. They are wild animals, so one never knows what to expect. I did not see the "inverted loop" feeding behaviour that is usually shown in promotional videos, but I saw four mantas cruising mid-way between the bottom and the surface. It was a remarkable experience. The crew and guide looked after us well. They were booked up for the remaining evenings that I had on the Big Island or I would have returned for a repeat tour!

Kona Kayaking & Snorkeling Sea Cave Adventure at Keauhou Bay - Ocean Safari's

Love it!

Reviewed by: Cassie

It was such an amazing experience, my husband and I decided to buy a kayak, at some point. The guides were also awesome and they told us some history, as well as helped us found objects that we dropped out of they kayak. One guide actually found my husbands wedding ring that fell off his hand when he jumped off one of the cliffs. It was truly amazing and such a fun time with the group!

King Kayak Hawaii - Keauhou Bay Kayaking & Snorkeling Tour

Very Fun

Reviewed by: Perlyn

Kayaking with Kevin (owner and our guide that day) was a lot of fun! Kev was very nice and friendly. He did a quick briefing on how to use the kayak and the paddles. And we were on our way exploring bay after bay and caves after caves. There were plenty of locations to snorkel. Kev took great photos, too! He brought us fresh tropical fruits for our snack and they tasted soooo good, especially after the snorkeling and paddling! King Kayak Hawaii is definitely the company to book this adventure with! Thanks Kev!

Big Island Manta Ray Night Snorkel Tour Adventure on a Hawaiian Sailing Canoe

Awesome

Reviewed by: Perlyn

This activity was totally worth it. The guides were very friendly and knowledgeable. The canoe was very cool, too. We saw plenty of manta rays. If you like small groups for night snorkel, then this is your best bet. Hot cocoa was provided after the swim. We had a lot of fun! This is definitely a must-do and I highly recommend Eka Canoe for your reservation!

ハワイ島 オーシャンラフティング&シュノーケルリングツアー <英語ガイド/食事付き>

きれいな海でのシュノーケルに大満足

Reviewed by: sorata

初めてのハワイ島。シュノーケルと溶岩の岸壁でオーシャンラフティングも楽しめるということで妻と二人で参加させて頂きました!
10時出発なので、朝ゆっくりホテル周辺を散歩などして、レンタカーで集合場所のハーバーへ。他の参加者の方もみんな到着して少し早めに出発!
シュノーケルポイントまでのオーシャンラフティングでは、途中様々なスポットに止まってくれて説明してくれるので、写真撮影や観光を楽しめました。
そして野生のイルカもたくさん!こんなに居るとは思いませんでした。
シュノーケルポイントでは水の透明度が抜群で、湾の中にあるため波もなく、最高のシュノーケルスポットでした。魚の数も多く、まるで水族館。ランチのサンドイッチもおいしかったです。
ただコナの日射しがものすごく強くて。。日焼け止めしていたのですが、シュノーケルに夢中で背中がひどく日焼けしました!要注意です!
帰りのラフティングも、溶岩の岸壁で海からしか見られない貴重な景色で迫力満点。
一緒のツアーの方は皆海外の方でいい人ばかりでした。
ありがとうございました。

We loved the day out. Our guide was super friendly, informative and easy going. He handled the group of non english speakers with us really well. And he gave us great local info. We kayaked, snorkeled, cliff dove, snorkeled again, ate and it didn't feel rushed at all. Had an intense moment staring into the clear blue water while snorkeling - most memorable moments of my trip.

Kona Sunset & Moonlight Wild Manta Ray Snorkel Tour - Wahine Charters

Best Manta Experience

Reviewed by: Mindy

I've taken three different groups on three different manta swims and this one was the best! I really liked how we were tethered to the boat so that inexperienced snorkelers and people that got cold could easily climb back on the boat while the rest of us could continue to enjoy the mantas. Because we were on the moonlight swim, we were in the harbor by ourselves by the end. All the mantas (four total that night) were ours to observe. It was awesome.

This is really a must-do for your Big Island trip.

Reply from activity provider

Thank you for your wonderful review on our Moonlit Manta Snorkel. We are so pleased your tour was such a success. It is our goal to have every person rate us as the best snorkel tours in Kona! You just described the advantages of doing the Moonlit tour. I always recommend this tour to people with children. Because there are only two to three boats at the later tour time, this allows us to tether the light board directly to the boat instead of swimming the light board in the middle of twenty something boats and their light boards to give you the best show. Some parents might have to switch out with their partner if they bring their young children (toddler's and babies are always welcome). There might also be children and/or adults that have some apprehension and would prefer to have the boat near by as a comfort. We hope you will remember us on your next trip to Kona. Mahalo!

Our group took the morning tour and it was great to have the place to ourselves for a fair amount of time. The snorkeling was best before all the other boats arrived.

ダウンヒル(自転車)ツアー  世界遺産キラウエア火山の山頂から駆け降りる爽快サイクリング!<半日・1日/食事付/ヒロ地区送迎付>

ギリギリまで諦めず参加でき、気分爽快!

Reviewed by: ロミロミ

平均年齢60歳代の女性4人で参加しました。今回のハワイ島は特に「ダウンヒル(自転車)ツアー」が楽しみで、可なり早くに申し込みしました。ところが、催行人数に足らず「他のアクティビティに変更を!」とのメールが度々、でも諦めず待ちました。嬉しい事に日本を発つ前日に「催行決定」との連絡が入り、初参加できました。早朝6時ワイコロアを出発、集合場所に多少迷いながらも時間内に無事到着、何と参加者は私達4人以外は全員アメリカ人で総勢15~16のツアーになっていました。ガイドの説明は英語との事で不安がありましたが、幸いにもガイドのタローさんが日本語でもポイントをとても分かり易く説明してくださり、私達はラッキーでした。キラウエア火山の山頂から見た景色は絶景!、美味しい空気を吸って走る気分は爽快!で、あっと言う間の楽しい「半日コース」でした。申し込みをギリギリまで諦めず、参加でき最高に良かったです。体力的にも心配なさそうなので次回は是非「一日コース」に参加したいです。、

楽しかった!!

Reviewed by: かおり

この度はお世話になりありがとうございました!
友達と2人での参加させて頂きました!

レンタカーを借りてましたので、現地集合でしていくつかツアーや集合場所があり、探しましたが、道が広いので問題なく、現地の方々に聞いてすぐに見つかりました!
10時集合ということで、朝食をゆったりととったあと、バタバタすることなく行動することができましたとても良い時間でした!!
桟橋で偶然ウミガメを見つけて感動しました♡
ボートで約10名乗船しキャプテンクックの場所まで移動しましたが、途中鯨を発見し、何度か止まって頂き皆さんで撮影しました!
そのお気遣いも嬉しかったです!
シュノーケルポイント到着してからは約1時間半、シュノーケルしたり、ランチのサンドウィッチ頂きボートで食べたり!海が綺麗で、綺麗な魚がたーくさん!それはまるで水族館にいる様でした!
時折聞こえるキーキーという音が、、イルカでした♡
同じツアーに参加されていた外国人の方々も良い方ばかりで、楽しく会話したりいろんな場所から来られていて観光客が多いようですね!
1時間半は本当にあっという間!でしたが、帰り道でも絶景の渓谷ポイントに止まって下さりと、シュノーケルだけでなく、他の楽しみを味わせて頂きました!
ただ日焼けをしますので、必ず日焼け止めは必要です…とんでもなく焼けてしまい大変なことになってますが、これもまた良い思い出です!!
港に戻り、またまたウミガメを発見!!
2度も見れて最高でした!!

港には3時着でしたので、ハワイ島の北のほうへ買い物したり観光でき、ホノコハウマリーナは良い場所にありましたのでそれもまた魅力でした!!

なかなか日本では味わえない経験をさせて頂きました!綺麗な海でいろんな、魚達を見ることで癒されましたし、1時間少し海に浸かるだけですので全く疲れませんし、丁度良い時間で、またハワイ島に行く時があれば是非参加させて頂きたくおもいます!


ありがとうございました!

ハワイ島 オーシャンラフティング&シュノーケルリングツアー <英語ガイド/食事付き>

初めてのオーシャンラフティングに参加してきました!!!

Reviewed by: sonoe

現地までは、タクシーで行き車が港に近づくと青い屋根が目印ということだったので見つけるべくキョロキョロしましたが、いろいろなツアーの会社が並んでいてすぐにわかりました。もちろん集合時間に遅れることなく到着しました。受付ではすべて英語でしたが、日本語の説明書もありサインをしていよいよボートに乗り込みました。ラフティングが初めてだったのでボートの速さと風に負けそうでしたが、何より爽快だし海も空も本当に青く最高でした!途中アヒや鯨の仲間に遭遇しながら目的のケアラケクア湾に到着しシュノーケルタイムが始まりました。今回スマホの水中ケース初使用で海の中を自分でとりました…楽しいです!夢中になります!
キャプテンがカットして用意してくれたパインとオレンジが、めちゃくちゃおいしかった。ランチタイムが終わる頃、湾の中の少し遠くでイルカが泳いでいたのでボートで少しずつ近づいて行くと周りを10頭くらいのイルカたちが遊んでいます。こんなに近くで野生にイルカを見たのも初めてです。もう1度シュノーケルタイムを楽しんだ後、帰りは海岸線に沿ってボートは進みますが、陸の上からでは眺めることの出来ない迫力ある景色をみることができました。残念なことは私が英語を理解できないこと。もしキャプテンの説明が理解できていたらもっと良かったでしょう…とはいえわからないなりにも十分楽しめました。それとタクシーで行く場合、運転手が帰りの迎えの予約もしてくれましたが、少し時間を余裕をみて時間を決めると良いと思います。私達は30分待たせたのでチップを余計に払うことになりました。

This cruise is just as advertised, a nicely narrated cruise down the southern coast from Kailua-Kona to Capt. Cook's monument. We had amazing visits from the spinner dolphins, had drinks and appetizers on the way out to the cove, and a local guitarist playing for us throughout the trip. The dinner was good, there was plenty to eat for everybody. The sunset was also very beautiful.

Hulakai - Big Island Stand Up Paddle (SUP) Adventure & Lessons in Waikoloa

A little bit challenging, but fun!

Reviewed by: Teri and Norty

The voucher we printed was a little confusing. It had the correct zip code and address, but the wrong location in one area, and the correct location in another. Leave early so you can find the Mauna Lani Bay Hotel and the Hulakai Beach Hut. It is NOT at the Waikoloa Resort. We got there right on time and met Chris at the hut. He was very nice and friendly, low key and patient. I guess he's done this a lot with us novices! The cove was flat and glassy, and easy to get back on the board if you fall. After some practice in the cove, he lead us out past the breakers into a little more challenging water, but still not horribly choppy. Turned around and headed back into the cove. I had an easier time, so it may be more difficult for some people than others. Relax as best you can, keep looking up and you should be well on your way!

Reviewed by: 三田ファミリー

 スタンダート席を予約してましたので、早めに受け付けをして17:30からの開場を待ちました。その結果、舞台に近いスタンダート席に案内されました。
 周りを見ても日本人は少なく、海外に来たなと感じました。
 ビュッフェの順番はプレミアム席の後にスタンダート席なので、少し(だいぶ)待ちくたびれました。ビュッフェ料理はハワイ料理のほか種類も多く、ボリュームたっぷりでした。
 フラダンスとファイアーダンスのショーは迫力がありました。味のある司会者(女性)がショーの進行をされており、そのトークに欧米人はかなりノリノリでした。私は英語力をつけなければと痛感しました。
 全体的には、ショー、料理、周りの雰囲気などとても満足した時間を過ごせました。
