Luxury Molokini Snorkel Cruise with Breakfast, Lunch & Open Bar - Alii Nui Maui

Wonderful Experience!

Reviewed by: admoore, 2022/07/16

Our family truly enjoyed this snorkeling trip! We've been on several and this was the best yet! The crew was super nice and took very good care of everyone on board. They fed us breakfast, a snack and lunch and it was all very good. The snorkeling at Molokini was wonderful and at the end of the trip they raised the sails and we sailed for a while. Such a pleasant experience - we'll do this one again if we come back to Maui!

Kaneohe Bay Sandbar Ocean Sports Adventure with Snorkel, Kayak, SUP & Live Music

Super fun vibe

Reviewed by: ksoukup, 2022/07/15

Very fun vibe. Crew was fun and helpful. The live music was spectacular. We loved snorkeling! It was nice that you could do activities whenever you wanted and for how long you wanted. We did the afternoon and got our lunch as we boarded and it was good. Tide was higher, so we couldn't play volleyball but we got to go tubing and it was perfect for snorkeling. If you want a lower water level/less waves at the sand bar, I would say do the morning but we liked sleeping in and it was perfect for us as a couple. Families seemed to really enjoy it as well. I was really looking forward to this excursion and it met my high expectations for sure! Book it!

サンドバー キャプテンブルース 天国の海®︎シュノーケリングクルーズ SUPや浮き輪などレンタルアイテムも!<午前・午後/日本語クルー>

地球温暖化…

Reviewed by: マーチャン, 2022/07/15

ハリケーンの影響か、バスで着いた所は曇り。
でもサンドバーまで行くと太陽が出てきて最高でした。やはり午前が良いですね。

船上はフリードリンク、スナック菓子でシュノーケリングの途中で疲れても上がって休憩できました。

泳ぎが苦手な私でも大丈夫でしたよ

2度目でしたが、やはり気になるのは水位の上昇ですね…

Kaneohe Bay Kayak & Snorkel Self-Guided Tour [Tour Not Available]

Smooth Sailing!

Reviewed by: Jenny, 2022/07/15

Overall, the day went smoothly! The staff gave us lots of advice on where to kayak out to: whether we wanted to go to the sandbar or out snorkelling to see some sea animals. It took us an hour to get out to the sandbar and about 45 minutes to get back to the rental area. Everyone was super helpful and accommodating. Don't forget to reapply sunscreen after heading into the water and kayaking back!

Comments from activity operators

Aloha Jenny! Thank you so much for joining us for a kayak and snorkel adventure! And thank you also for taking the time to leave such an awesome review for us! We really appreciate that. So glad to hear our staff took good care of you and that you had a great kayak and snorkel experience with us! Good advice about the sunscreen. Hope to see you again soon! Mahalo!

I appreciated leaving on time from the harbor. The staff was friendly and accommodating. The ride

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

Great time!

Reviewed by: Reif family, 2022/07/12

The boat fit the 5 of us plus crew perfectly with space. Captain Bambi and Mason were knowledgeable and took us to see the parrots and goats while we were waiting for the sun to set and mantas to come out. Those lighted surfboard really attracted the mantas, and the pool noodles helped keep our feet up. FYI be prepared to do the Superman pose holding the surfboard. Get a good arm work out. We saw at least 5, one even touched my youngest, which scared her but no harm. I wish the surf boards would have a camera to record all the mantas but otherwise great trip!

カイルアビーチ送迎シャトルサービス 嬉しい5時間滞在!シュノーケル&選べるオプション(カイルア観光・ブーツ&キモズ・自転車レンタル)<ビーチアイテム&ランチ付>

ちょっと最初は戸惑う

Reviewed by: R&S, 2022/07/11

ツアーのイメージではなく、集合場所のお店の提供されている貸出店舗という感じです。
スタッフさんは、みなさんフレンドリーで親しみやすいですよ!

私達は当日は海に入る予定がなかったため自転車のみ利用でした。
自転車は、日本と違いタイヤの幅も大きく軽く漕げば結構すすみます。
ブレーキは一癖あり(笑)是非現地で体験してください。

シュノーケリングされる予定の方はカイルアビーチは良いですが、ラニカイまでいくとなるとちょっと大変かも。

特に、荷物管理が難しいかもしれませんね。

カイルア散策ではいろいろなお店もあり楽しめますよ。
女性向けのお土産で良かったのはKanikai Bath&Bodyです!

あととにかく、野鳥が多いです。
またツアー時間が結構長くとれるので、体力に自信がある方はピルボックスの方まで登るのはおすすめです。


ランチについては、3種類から選べるのですが、
私達はBBQプレートとピザにしました。コメントのあるようにピザは日本のとはちがいオイリーで生地はふといのにサクサクでうまいです。

BBQプレートも美味しいのですが、食べる場所はちょっと衛生的に微妙かも。ピザ屋さんの前は綺麗でした!
海外ですのであんまり気にしすぎないほうが良いですね!

R&S様

パンデミック後、送迎サービスのない中、ツアーにご参加頂き、誠にありがとうございました。
現在、ハワイは通常に戻り始めており、ワイキキエリアからの無料送迎も開始致しました。
カイルアビーチプラスオプションでは自転車の利用を強くお勧めしておりますので、R&S様の選択は正解です!
ラニカイビーチに行く際は、当店のロッカーに荷物を入れ、身軽で行って頂くのが一番よろしいかと思います。
ピルボックスからの眺めは最高位ですよね!
またハワイにお越しの際は、是非ともカイルアに遊びにいらしてください。
スタッフ一同、心よりお待ち致しております。

Sea Paradise 3-Hour Afternoon Kealakekua Bay & Captain Cook Snorkel Tour

Great crew!

Reviewed by: Reif family, 2022/07/11

Friendly, attentive and courteous crew! Good selection of beverages and fresh fruits and snacks were good (kid friendly). I liked that I saw the crew wiping down all the rails and high touch surfaces after the last group/ before we boarded. Saw some dolphins and plenty of fish, and a couple of flying fish! The crew and captain were very informative about the reef and preserving the reef life. One member even informed a kayaker that he was too close to the reef and could damage it. Will book with them again our next round.

野生のイルカウォッチング&ウミガメシュノーケリングクルーズ ゆったり遅め出発プランあり<ハワイアンプレートランチ&アルコール4杯付き/ワイキキ送迎or現地集合>

日本人は私が一人だけ?

Reviewed by: Markun, 2022/07/11

コロナが収まりつつあるホノルルは、まだ日本人が少ない印象でした。
それでも今回は一人で参加させていただきました。
コオリナ方面へ移動して、ハーバーから素敵な船に乗船してさど揺れることなく移動して約20分でイルカの群れに遭遇しました。
それからシュノーケリングのポイントに移動してウミガメとの遭遇。
船に戻って一人でしたがお酒やランチで堪能しました。
船長をはじめ数人が日本語を話せたので一人旅の私に気遣っていただきました。
日本人が少ないので仕方ないかもしれませんが、早口の英語の説明はよほどの語学力がないと厳しいと思います。
可能であれば、説明の内容を日本語の和訳でプリントしたものを配布していただけるとありがたかったと思いました。
トータル的には満足したツアーでした。

このな海が身近にあるとは感激!

Reviewed by: Markun, 2022/07/10

三年ぶりのハワイだったので、今回はオプショナルツアーで満喫しようと思い、今まで経験したことがなかったこのツアーに参加しました。
まだコロナが落ち着いたばかりなので、参加者のほとんどは外国人で、日本人はたぶん我々だけだと思いました。
多少の英語は理解できるとはいえ、バス中での集合時間などの説明は、理解できず、日本語は無理でも紙にプリントしたものでも配布していただけたらありがたかったと思いました。

遠浅の砂地はちょうど腰くらいの深さでしたが、ちょっと手前の部分はサンゴ礁の深いエリアとなっていてウミガメがたくさんいたので感動でした。
また、スタッフの接遇もとても行き届いていて、その中の日本語が話せる女性スタッフにはとてもお世話になりました。
ありがとうございました。

潮の干潮時に合わせて日を選ぶとサンドバーが見えているので、せっかくなので下調べして行くとよいと思います。
カタマランの大きい船なのでサンドバーに上陸はできませんが近くまで行きます。干潮時で膝くらいの深さのところまで船は行きますので十分に海を楽しめます。
船にはお手洗いがあるのが大きな安心感でした。

Kaneohe Bay Kayak & Snorkel Self-Guided Tour [Tour Not Available]

Great time!

Reviewed by: Niks, 2022/07/09

There was ample parking at the facility and we were able to quickly find the check in table. The staff let us know that due to higher than normal winds (15 mph, normal would be 5 - 10mph) they were offering people the option to rebook. We opted to continue since it was the only day we could do this.

Staff said it usually takes about 30mins to get to the sandbar. We are by no means super kayakers, took us about 45mins to get there. Spent about 2 hours out there, eating snacks, snorkeling with turtles and taking pictures.

Took about an hour to kayak back. Because of the winds, there were times when paddling didn't move us anywhere.

Overall great experience! Only rec would be to bring extra water. We each finished a 16oz and 24oz thermos, and were really thirsty by the end because of the sun.

My family and I had a blast on our snorkel trip. This was our first time doing anything like this and it was amazing. We were able to see lots of fishes and turtles. The water was so clear that it made it so easy to spot fish. The captain and his crew were very professional and helpful. We had a great group of families with us and made the trip that much better. On another note we were able to see one of the crew members catch a fish on our trip. Fun time. Recommend for everyone to try.

Quicksilver Lanai Snorkeling Cruise & Dolphin Encounter with Meals [May-Oct]

Great experience

Reviewed by: Xiongwei, 2022/07/07

Pros:
Friendly and helpful crew members, and great communication from the captain when we encountered some dolphins.

I enjoyed the pulled pork for the lunch. Very fresh.

The snorkels they provided were way better than what you get at ABC stores for $10. Very easy to breath with, and I never got water inside the snorkel.

They provided great floatation devices. Noodles and belts. Made it easy to focus on watching the under-water world.

Cons:
Too much time spent on the way. I would like to spent ~30min more in the water.

Tips:
Bring your own disinfectant wipes to further clean the snorkel if you are concerned.

You can rent a GoPro on the boat to take video/photos under water. I tried water-proof bag with my cellphone, but it didn't work well.
