海の透明度が低い気がします。
でも子どもも潜水艦に乗って、魚や沈没船を見れて満足してそうでした。短いかなと思いましたが、子どもには十分そうでした。

It was a great experience for the whole family, great staff, very helpful and informative, we were a bit disapointed because it was cut short.......we realized it after we were off the sub, other than that I recommend it.

The trip was the best. The staff were very nice and helpful. They were eager to answer questions, and always tried to make the trip as pleasant as possible for every passengers. We were able to see corals, fishes, and ship wrecks. The introduction was very informational, and the best is that it had multiple languages choices.

The submarine tour is really amazing. How often can you say that you were in an actual submarine. The sub is air conditioned and really very spacious and comfortable. There is never a dull moment. Fish, coral eels and ship wrecks. Plenty to see and experience.

乗船時間の30分前までに、カイルア桟橋近くの事務所でチェックイン
昼間暑い時間だと、あまり早くにチェックインしてしまうと
桟橋の乗船場近くにはあまり日影がないので
どこかで日差しを退避することになります。
乗船するときにグループごとに写真を撮ってくれるのですが
最後に写真にCDを付けたものを船内で販売します。20ドルだったかな?
カイルア桟橋から船に乗って数分、沖合で待機している潜水艦へ移動して乗り換えます。
本物の潜水艦はそれなりに面白かったです。
窓の向こうの海水にクジラの赤ちゃん?みたいなプランクトンとか
肉眼で漂っているのがわかります。
サンゴ礁は、沖縄の宮古島のほうが色とりどりですが
溶岩のごつごつした上に生えるサンゴの風景は、ハワイ島ならではと思います。
日本語ガイドは全く聴こえなかったのですが、
ボリュームを調整するところがあったのですね。
聴こえなくても楽しめました。
船に乗ってカイルア桟橋に戻るときに、たまたまイルカの群れに出会えて感動しました。

妻と二人で参加しました。内の奥さんはカナヅチなのでシュノーケリングへの参加を諦め潜水艦ツアーに決めました。先月沖縄の「ブナセ海中公園海中展望台」に行ったばかりでしたので、魚への感動は余りありませんでしたが、潜水艦が30mも潜水したのには感動しました。

prior to the journey and wasn't able to attend. She would
have also enjoyed! The highlite was a Black Manta that
swam directly under the boat.

We had a great time. We were not sure what to expect. The staff was very friendly and full of information. We were able to see Manta Rays and Giant Turtles and many fish. Would recommend for 1st timers to the island. For repeat visitors, a longer boat ride would be recommended as our 30 minutes went by very quickly.

The perfect choice for our family of four! My husband and I weren't too sure at first if our kids would behave for this trip, but we were so glad we went. Not only did the kids behave....they loved it! They couldn't get enough of the colorful fish and sea critters. And the time was perfect...enough to see alot, yet not too long for the kids to get too restless or bored at all. A great choice for us.

This was a pleasant outing and particularly enjoyable for kids. If you think you might get seasick, I would recommend you take a ginger capsule before you go. Looking down into the water can make you a little queezy. Very informative and was helpful to have someone describing what you see.

I don't know how to swim, and no way would I try snorkeling without even knowing how to float, so this was right up my alley. The staff was engaging and funny and knew a lot about the fish that we saw. We floated over several clusters of coral and although I didn't see anything as cool as a dolphin or manta ray, I did see a variety of exotic fish I had never known outside of an aquarium. Sadly, it's a quick 1 hour because you're so focused on looking at the windows that you lose track of time.
I don't recommend taking tons of pictures like someone here suggested, only because the fish move so fast that you'd probably get bad shots anyway and secondly, you really want to enjoy this uninterrupted without a contraption mounted to your face. Maybe take a snapshot of the first reef so you can tell people "I experienced this," then put the camera away for good.

The crew was fantastic. A very unique way to see ocean life up close. It was a bit crowded and you have to bend over to see out the windows if you are taller than 5 foot, but you soon forget about that as you look through your window.

It was definitely a unique experience, and having it depart from the pier in downtown Kona was great. We saw some marine life, though I guess we expected a bit more variety of fish (mostly yellow ones). Guess the fish don't come when it's sub time though! We loved looking at the coral and seeing a whole different world under the surface.
We did buy the CD that was offered for $20 with your picture, thinking it would have a variety of marine life pictures from previous trips, but on first inspection, it doesn't appear to have much. We did get our picture on the CD plus pictures of everyone else on the ride ... Don't think it was worth the $20.
Overall, a great and unique thing to do and I'd definitely recommend it to first-timers and those with kids, but not something I'd do again I don't think.

Overall, it was a fun experience to be in a submarine. We got to see a pod of dolphins, so that was exciting. It's like scuba diving but you don't get wet. Pretty neat. The pier is a walking distance from downtown Kona, so it was very close to our hotel.

初めての潜水艦への乗船でしたが、スタッフの方が親切でとても良かったです。100ftまで潜った海底は、当然のことながら魚が自由に動き回っていて、水族館とはまた違ったイメージに感じました。このアクティビティは、お薦めです。

ハワイ島に到着した翌日、潜水艦に乗りました^^
天気も良く風も程よく、同行者全員(一番上はおじいちゃんから、一番下は5歳の子供まで総勢9名)気分は上々↑↑
船酔いするかな…酔い止めの薬、飲んでくれば良かったかな…なんて思っているうちに、どんどん潜水していき、目の前に魚たちがあらわれた時には、そんな心配はどこかへ吹き飛んでいました。
主に目にした魚は鮮やかな黄色や、黒と白のストライプの魚が中心でした。赤とか青とか、もう少し違った色の魚が見れればもっと良かったかな…って思っています。
もしかしたら、オアフ島でダイブしていれば、もっと色とりどりの魚を目にすることができたのかもしれませんね。
また、潜水中は、英語で色々と説明があり、日本人に対しては、日本語の説明が聞こえるイヤホンを渡されるのですが、英語の説明の声が大きすぎて、日本語の説明が全く聞こえず残念でした。
とはいえ、海はどこまでも青く澄んで綺麗で、本当に素敵な光景を目にすることができとても素晴らしい思い出になりました~!!
この度はハワイ島の潜水艦ツアーにご参加いただきありがとうございました。
ハワイ島に生息する熱帯魚をご家族そろってご覧いただけたようで、非常に嬉しく思っております。
当日はイヤホンから日本語でのご案内が聞こえなかったとのことで誠に申し訳ございませんでした。イヤホンを挿すビューポイント(潜水艦の窓)の近くにボリュームを調整していただける箇所がございます。そちらを大きくしていただけるとご案内をお聞きいただけますのでご利用いただけると幸いです。
また、魚の種類に関してはその日の海の状況や季節などによってもご覧いただける魚の種類が異なります。同じ場所に潜っても違った種類の魚や生き物を見ていただけることも多くありますので、またの機会にご参加いただきたいと思います。
またハワイ島に遊びにいらしてください!

カイルア桟橋から船でゆっくりと潜水艦まで移動
カイルア・コナの沿岸がきれい。
潜水艦に入って見ると中は意外に広く100フィート(約30m)潜り海底まで見えきれい。
もともと船に弱い方で、またマウナケア山頂サンライズツアー参加後すぐで睡眠不足だったので、軽い船酔いになりました。
船に弱い方は、桟橋で船に乗る前船酔いの薬を飲まれる事をお勧めします。
