Kona Manta Ray Snorkel & Night Dive Tour at Keauhou Bay - Sea Paradise

Seriously glad we did this!

Reviewed by: Sharon, 2018/05/11

The Sea Paradise crew gave us a great experience, from setting us up with wet suit and snorkel gear to teaching us how to "behave" in the water (#1 rule - Don't touch the Manta Rays, #2 rule - don't pee in the wetsuits - haha! - they provide a bathroom on board), providing drinks and snacks, including hot chocolate which was welcome after the snorkeling. They also made sure we weren't needlessly floating around in the water before the rays showed up, but got us in there in plenty of time to see 4 different rays swimming literally inches below our faces! So cool to see them somersault and glide beneath you. Completely worth the cost! Do this!

  • Sunset did not disappoint on this Sunset Cruise

  • Sunset with palm trees while leaving the bay

  • The boat was very steady and well equipped. Plenty of room for everyone and their stuff. Also has a bathroom on board!

  • Dropping anchor near the other boats - you have to "share" the rays with the other boats, but they still came to us often. Sorry no pics of rays-they are on my husband's GoPro. But they turned out cool!

Mauna Kea Summit Adventures Sunset & Stargazing Guided Tour with Transportation

Knowledgeable and interesting

Reviewed by: Marco and Nancy, 2018/05/11

The tour was very interesting and Arthur our tour guide was very knowledgeable of the region. He answered all of our questions about the local environment as well as the history of the Hawaiian people.

It was cold at the summit and a sweatshirt should be worn if you cannot handle the cold even with the atlantic parka and gloves that is supplied.

The stargazing spot was incredibly clear and we could see hundreds of stars. We were also able to spot Venus, Jupiter, and several star systems through the telescopes provided.

6名限定!ハワイ島 野生のイルカウォッチング+ケアラケクア湾シュノーケリングツアー<午前/英語ガイド/軽食付>

イルカ30匹以上!ケアラケクア湾もキレイ!英語ツアーだけど単語は簡単!Captain Dave、Mahalo nui loa!

Reviewed by: こさみ, 2018/05/06

イルカが来るほうにボートで先回りしてもらって海に飛び込み、ヌードルという浮き具を握りしめて全速力で泳いでイルカを見て、ボートに上がってまた先回り、を繰り返すこと7回(笑)普段全く運動をしない身には堪えましたが、触れられそうな距離を泳いでいくイルカを見たり、ちょっと深いところを30匹以上(数えた(笑))のイルカの群れがゆったり泳いでいく様子を見たりして、参加して本当に良かったと息切れしながら思っていました。ケアラケクア湾も、曇っていたので青い海という感じではありませんでしたが、水が透明で色とりどりの魚がたくさんいて、とてもキレイでした。チップ渡すだろうなと思っていたらやはり「もし満足してもらえたならチップを。」と丁寧に言われたので、2人で50ドルお渡ししたら十分な感じでした。ツアー代が1人170ドルなのでチップを入れると1人2万円以上ですが、ボート出して、イルカが泳ぐ方向も見定めて適切なタイミングで海に入らせて、もう1か所シュノーケリングの名所に連れて行ってくれるわけですから、妥当な金額だと思います。ケアラケクア湾から最初の集合場所のケアウホウ湾に戻るとき、もう1度イルカをボートの上から見せてくれて、イルカが海面から飛び上がってスピンするところも2回見られました!!!自然の生き物なので毎回見られるわけではないかもしれないけど、今回30匹いたのでイルカがゼロということは滅多にないんじゃないでしょうか。
尚、英語ツアーということで少し不安がありましたが、最初に"Can you speak English?"と聞かれ"A little."と答えておきましたので、難しいことは一切言われませんでした(笑)海からボートに上がるのを手伝ってくれるときに"Very good, yeah?"と聞かれたり、"Dolphins come this way, go!"と言われたり。ケアラケクア湾では、海岸に上陸しないようになどの案内はありましたが、いずれも簡単な英語です。こちらは聞き取れますが話せないので、イルカが見えたときに「ヒュー!」などと言って楽しんでいることだけ伝えておきました(笑)また、海には他の会社の船もたくさんいて、お互いにイルカのいる場所を教え合ったり、私が平泳ぎをしていたら「バタ足のほうがいいですよ~。」と他のツアーの日本語のガイドさんが教えてくれたり、協力的な感じでよかったです。送迎がないのが難点ですが、集合場所へはシェラトン・コナ・リゾート&スパ・アット・ケアウホウ・ベイに泊まれば歩いて行けます。
とても良い体験をしたのでつい長々と書いてしまいましたが、とてもおすすめなので是非参加してみてください!!!

Big Island Manta Ray Snorkel Cruise from Keauhou Bay - Sunset & Night Tours

Night Manta Ray Swim on the Big Island.

Reviewed by: LOIC, 2018/05/03

Good experience!
Just a little bit disappointed by the tour.
The guides were super nice but late, we stayed one hour at the harbor due to a boat problem. The dinner (Sushis) was too light, we had to share 20 pieces for 4 people. We stayed only 15min in the water swimming with the mantas because we were running out of time due to the delays at the beginning.

Wonderful experience!

Reviewed by: Ms. V, 2018/05/01

Jim Carrey led our group on a wonderful adventure! He is a master story teller and an provided such detail in sharing the culture, sites and flavors of Hawaii.
The day was rainy but we were covered by umbrellas and deliciously warm coats that the tour provided. There were so many things to see and stories to be heard that the day was over way too quickly. Will most definitely do this tour again the next time we visit the Big Island and we will definitely ask for Jim Carrey to be our guide!

We enjoyed this trip. It is only approximately 30 minutes. We were able to see a fair amount of fish and other sea creatures including turtles. The guide was very knowledgeable. However, we seemed to ask the questions or not sure if they would have shared much. That in my opinion should be improved upon.

なので、支払いが終わりレンタル品のサイズ合わせが終わり、じゃあここにきてね!と言われた時にはびっくりしました。
サーフショップから海へは連れて行ってもらえると思っていましたから。
結局、母にレンタカーで迎えにきてもらい送迎してもらいましたが、うっかり停めた場所で駐車違反をとられました。

Beautiful experience. Got so much to see and learn.

Reviewed by: AkshathaSriramprasad, 2018/04/25

Lee, our tour guide was super friendly. He also teaches at a local school hence has a great skill for storytelling. He not only showed us some pretty amazing stuff like live volcano, volcano tubes and the waterfalls, he also told us a lot about Hawaii, Hilo, Hawaiian culture, heritage and people.
If you are someone who wants to know more about all these places and the legends and stories associated with them, go for this tour. Lee has so much knowledge to share and we felt like school kids on excursion. He encourages questions and appreciates them too!
He showed us the Hokule'a which was in town for 2 weeks. And took us to the amazing Rama paintings exhibition. He gave us a brief tour of the town and showed us several historic sites and took us to the Volcano on time.
He customizes the tours based on your interests.
We had a great time and wish Lee and his family the best!

we had so much fun - when we were watching from shore the next night we wished we had signed up again. we had one on one with our captain and guide (Justin and Tara) - The other groups were so large there was no way they could have asked questions like we did. Tara worked hard to keep us where viewing was best. Bring your towel but not change of clothes.

It's wonderful to know that you had a fun time and appreciated the small group experience and hard work of our fabulous crew, and tickled to hear that you wished you'd "signed up" again for another trip with us!

1st time in a helicopter. 1 more bucket list item checked off. The views were spectacular and we were very fortunate to have the weather & Mother Nature in general on our side that day.

人生初のドルフィンスイム最高でした!

Reviewed by: カノープス, 2018/04/17

今回は12歳の息子と参加し、ツアーは私たち母子の2人だけでした。
息子は泳げませんでしたが、浮き輪(ヌードル)を貸してくれるので、安心してそれぞれがアクティビティーを楽しむことができました。
大きなボートを私たちだけのために出してくれて、女性の船長さんはとても親切でした!
イルカがどこに居るか教えてくれたり、イルカと一緒に泳げるようにポイントを変えてくれたり。
イルカが間近で見られ、一緒に泳げてとても感動しました。そして、何よりもイルカ同士のコミュニケーション(=エコロケーション)を海中で聞くことができたことです。
船長さん曰く、ボートのエンジンに秘密があるとか(静かでイルカが逃げない)。
ドルフィンスイムの後はクアラケアベイでシュノーケリングを楽しむプランでしたが、シュノーケリングポイントに行くまでの道中、ボートを止めて、ラバチューブを案内してくれたりと、とても満足するツアーでした!
何より、ボートに乗っている間の時間がとても心地よく楽しくて、沖から見るハワイ島は格別でした。
シュノーケリングの後、ボートで頂くフルーツも冷えていて美味しかったです。
船長さんのホスピタリティーも素晴らしく、ハワイ島の自然を満喫出来たこのツアーに参加して本当によかったです。
子どもにとっても貴重な素晴らしい体験となりました。
ありがとうございました!

Best part of our week long trip

Reviewed by: Erica, 2018/04/15

Spent a week in Hawaii and this was the best thing we participated in! Lee, our guide, was extremely knowledgeable about Hilo and the volcanoes. We saw waterfalls, black sand beaches, and of course the volcano. Our 9 year old son could have climbed on lava rock all day! Wish we could have spent more time in the park itself, but we saw it all in 6 hours!! Well worth the money to do a private tour. Even had a picnic sitting amongst old lava flows!

Aloha ohana of a junior ranger!
Yes, the weather changes all the time and the guide can be guided by the weather and local happenings.
It has rained for nearly 3 weeks know and very little sun,
However, the 'liquid sunshine' is refreshing; everything is so green and the magma is rolling about.

Kealakekua Bay Guided Kayak & Captain Cook Snorkel Tour - Adventures In Paradise

Excellent snorkeling plus a kayak paddle

Reviewed by: Elaine, 2018/04/15

The trip starts early so you can be the first on the water and the first to snorkel before the crowds show up. The paddle over to the Cook Monument was easy. We stopped for a history and a geology lesson which were interesting. Once the Kayaks were landed we walked to the Monument where we donned our snorkel gear and jumped into the water. Everywhere on the Big Island is difficult to enter the water. This was just an easy jump.

The fish were a wide variety with lots of groups of yellow butterfly fish. They come here for the waters which are a mix of fresh from the lad and salt water. The blurry effect of the waters mixing is fun. This place lets the fish clean themselves of irritants. The coral was fine but some was quite damaged.

The park only allows a limited number of snorkelers at this location. They should dial the numbers back as it became crowded quickly when five boats showed up about fifteen minutes after our snorkel started.

The paddle back was easy and it was still morning.
