It was a smaller boat, so I felt a little bit squished, but I guess that is how submarines must feel!

Not only could we ask her about anything going on 'under the sea', she could tell us in English OR Hawaiian. Wish I could retain a smidge of all that excellent info!

Kai and Mika were great. So educational and informative. We had a great time. We are glad that we went on the glass bottom boat while visiting Hawaii. We live in L.A., and don’t really have this kind of thing near us. Thanks to the boys on the boat. They were great.
Aloha,

We found this trip rather disappointing. It was supposed to last for an hour but we returned to the pier after 50 minutes. In the event we had probably seen all there was to see after 20 minutes. You see rather dull brown/grey coral, some small blue and yellow fish and some sea urchins - No wrays or sharks or anything unusual. In fact the guide started to describe the history of the buildings on the shoreline as we headed back. Not worth the money.
Sorry to hear that you found our tour disappointing. The tour is one hour from when you get on to when you get off, that does mean that it is about 50 min of actual tour time, we appreciate the insight, maybe we can explore making the tour last a bit longer.
The coral in Hawaii is naturally more neutral in color than other places in the world. However, Kona has amazingly clear waters and colorful fish. Many fish are relatively small so they can live on the reef and fit in the cracks and crevices of the coral. We do not guarantee shark and ray sightings. Though, sometimes we see large interesting creatures like that. We are sorry to hear that you are disappointed in what Kona's reef has to offer. Most guests express that they find the natural coral ecosystem to be amazing.
Many passengers are interested in the history of the bay including some of the historic buildings. The time when we are heading back and have a good view of the buildings is the perfect time to discuss it.

The captain and his companion were very nice answering all our questions. It was a windy day, so our family were the only ones on the boat, we saw some fishes and lots of corals, and learned some new things about different fish in Hawaii. The turtles were kond of hiding thought, but the captain made every effort on finding at least one for us, so we got to see it on the surface taking a few breaths.
Thank you,

潜水艦そのものは良かったです!
快適に海底を見ることが出来ました!
しかしながら、宿泊場所から送ってくださった方から集合場所について説明があまりなく…
(お迎え時間は何度もお伝えいただいたんですが)
こちらのページやバウチャーにも記載がなかったため、聞きまわったり電話したりしてなんとか乗船できた感じでした…
集合場所についての説明を充実させていただければありがたいです!ぜひご検討ください。

毎年正月はハワイ島(ワイコロア)とオアフ島に行きます。妻と二人、初めての潜水艦体験で、海の中17、20メーター以上潜るとは信じられませんでした。海底、珊瑚礁、いろいろな魚、亀を見られたときは感動、感動。
素晴らしい体験でした。
1日4便ありますが、私たちは、午前中の日本語での説明、案内のコースを選びました。声が少々聞き取りにくかったですが、日本語での案内を選んで良かったと思いました。
ただ、アトランティスの事務所にいたのですが、桟橋と乗り場の説明がとてもわかりにくかったです。案内板等があれば良かったと思います。

1歳の子供でも楽しめるアクティビティを探していたのですが、こちらはそんな私たちにぴったりでした!
カラフルな魚が、キレイなボートのグラス越しによく見えますし、ラッキーなことに、イルカの群にも遭遇できました。イルカたちは、ボートのすぐ側まで来てくれてとても楽しかったです。
ガイドさんは魚の知識が豊富で、サービス精神の溢れた素敵な方でした。説明は英語なので、英語が分かる方が楽しめますが、仮に分からなかったとしても海そのものが美しいので困るということはないと思います。
乗船時間は1時間ほどです。海は穏やかで船は揺れませんでしたが、うつむいて船底のガラスを眺めるので、船に酔いやすい方は酔い止めを飲まれた方がいいと思います。集合場所もわかりやすく、青と黄色の旗をつけたボートをすぐに見つけられると思います。
また次回も利用したいと思います!
Thank you for the great review. We are so happy that you, and your children, enjoyed our tour. How lucky to also have a visit from our local dolphins. What great pictures, mahalo for sharing.

当日は曇り空…早めに到着しホテルの駐車場にレンタカーを止めて受付。 ホテルの外のカウンターとホテル内の少し奥にある店舗があり、少し戸惑いました。 時間になると日本人数名を含む20名ほどの参加者と共に連絡用の船に乗り込み数分で潜水艦へ。
早速乗り込み潜水開始…サンゴやそこを泳ぐ魚を見ながら40分程楽しみました。100フィート、30メートル程まで潜りましたが、曇り空のせいか若干暗く感じたのと思っていたより魚と距離感を感じました。 晴れていればもっと綺麗だったのかもしれません。
カウンターで駐車券にステッカーを貼ってくれて料金をカバーしてくれます。2ドル足りずにカード支払いしようとしたらカードを認識せず…後ろに数台並び焦りましたが、電話して開けてもらい事なきを得ました。
