午前9時から一人で参加しましたが、45人乗りのところを13人くらいだったのでゆったりと楽しむことができました。次の便では45人満杯だったので朝一の便をおすすめします。
潜水艦といえばディズニーシーを思い出しますが、今回は本物の海でしたので興奮しました。たくさんの魚とエイを見れたのはよかったのですが、サメやクジラが見れたらさらに評価は上がっていたでしょう(笑
でも自然の生き物ですからこのあたりは仕方ないですね。クルーの皆さんはとても親切でした。ちなみにチェックインカウンターの受付の方が日本人の方でした。あと、ここ最近のマウイは天気が悪いので、参加されるときは1週間の天気を調べて快晴の時に参加することをおすすめします(^^)

I can't physically snorkel so this was the next best thing. We saw a shark immediately--pretty cool. The staff was wonderful. The divers brought sea life to the windows for all to view. We wish we could have seen more diversity, but no one can control mother nature. We had fun and enjoyed the sea life we did see.

We Took This Snorkeling Trip Over The Molokini Crater Because We Wanted Something Different And Less Crowded. Well This Trip Was Right On The Nose. Our Guide Peter Was AWESOME. He Was Very People Friendly And Knowledgable About The Things He Showed Us And Talked About, It Was Nice To Not Be Sitting On An Over Crowded Boat But Instead In A Kayak With A Group Of 7 Other People. 4 Kayaks Total. We Went To 2 Different Snorkel Sites And Were Out On The Water For A Total Of About 3 Hours Or So.We Saw MANY Turtles And Lots Of Different Fish, Peter Even Showed Us An Octopus And Let Us Hold And Touch It. My Husband And I Really Enjoyed Ourselves On This Trip And Would Totally Recommend It To Anyone Thats Wanting Something Less Crowded. Sorry I Dont Have Any Photos, Were Still Here In Hawaii!

This was great for our family trip to Maui with my 2-year-old daughter. Obviously bringing her restricted us to do only a selected activities, but we're glad that we got to do this. She loved it! Highly recommended to those families with small children!

Not our favorite activity. Not much to see underwater, not like the aquarium experience we had hoped for. The staff were fabulous but still felt like a waste of time. Even our children, ages 11 and 9, were bored.

集合場所が少しわかりにくかったが、・・・。
なかなかクジラが見つからなかったが、1度見つけると、
10~20分程度そのクジラに寄り添って・・・。慣れてくると、船の方に向かって近づいたり・・・。すぐ近くで見れました。

This was one of my and my husbands favorite things we did our first time out to Hawaii. We were thrilled we were in whale infested waters and it was super cool to have the whales literally swimming under us, as we saw and heard them. It was awesome one whale swam right under our guide (Griff) who got amazing photos of the whole experience!
Would definitely do this again during whale season! Snorkeling to see the green sea turtles was amazing too. And all by getting a little exercise, rowing. Nice!
Thanks Griff and South Pacific Kayak!

こんなにたくさんのクジラにあえると思っていませんでした。
船酔いを心配して比較的大きな船のホエールウォッチングを希望し、このツアーにしました。大きな船のツアーでは遠くからクジラを見る想像をしてましたので、こんなに近くで見れるとは!驚きと感動でいっぱいです。
英語のアナウンスですが、日本人のスタッフの方がいらして何かと気を遣ってくださりました。
是非お勧めのツアーです。

快晴の天候の中、ラハイナハーバーから出発し、ホエール・ウォッチングツアーに参加しました。
規則で鯨には100フィート以内には近づけないため、なかなか写真で見るようなビッグダイブに遭遇することはできませんでしたが、かなりの数を見ることができました。
鯨自体は陸地からも遠目で見ることはできますが、この値段で、
・日本人ガイド付き
・飲み物、スナック付き
・2時間超のクルーズ
はとってもリーズナブルなツアーだと思います。

This excursion was worth the money spent. My new husband had never snorkeled before so it was nice to have an experienced guide teach us how to do it. The Kayaking portion was nice and good exercise while we got to go out further than we would have without the kayaks. The guide, Steve, knew tremendous amounts about the area, ocean, animal life and more. He was helpful and funny throughout the entire experience. It was great to see turtles in and out of the water, an octopus, urchins, as well as schools of fish. Small group, us and a family, which the made the experience that much more intimate and special.

Kayaking is a great way to observe different snorkeling sites. Lots of friendly sea turtles and was able to hear the songs of the humpback whales. Would have liked to see more varieties of fish. For a kayaker used to a 1-person boat, the 2-person kayak was more limiting. Our guide provided a lot of information about the sea life in the area. It was very informational. Overall a good day.

マウイ観光局のHPをみると4H程度となっていたため、船酔いを気にする妻と娘はしぶっていたが、観光ガイドなどでは2Hのツアーとなっていたこともあり、ラハイナクルーズに参加することにした。結果、2Hで十分だったと思う。3月末のシーズンのおかげか、出航して15分程度でクジラを確認することが出来、ひと組の親子クジラをじっくり見た30分程度含めて都合20匹くらいは確認出来た。(ほとんどが遠くの海上にいるのが確認できる程度だが、時間が長くても、たいして状況は変わらないと思う)
実は、双眼鏡を持っていこうと思いながら忘れてしまったのだが、クルーを始め、参加者も誰も持っていなかった。探す際に視界が狭くなるのは邪魔なので、あまり活躍するタイミングはないかもしれないと思った。
また、乗った船は、揺れに強い双胴船だったが、確かに、
自走しているときは安定感強いが、クジラを観察するために、エンジンを切っている際には、横幅小さい船だと上下になる波の揺れが、左右の揺れになるので、左右の揺れに弱い人は酔い止めの薬を飲んでおいたほうがよいかもしれない。(妻は飲んで良かったと言っていた)
あと、ラハイナは駐車スペースに難があるので、レンタカーで参加される方は早朝or早めの到着(湾からちょっと離れれば止める場所はいくらでもあった)を心がけるとよいと思います。
最後に、ひとことで言うと、参加して良かった!楽しかった!です。
ご参考まで。

Being from Kansas, my family and I don't exactly get too many opportunities to go kayaking in the ocean, so when my son asked if we could do the kayaking and whale watching, I was little scared but now I am so glad that I did it! This was such a great tour from the moment we met our guide up until we came back to shore. Seeing whales while in our kayaks was completely breathtaking and the professionalism displayed by the guides was top notch. Keep it up folks!

今回のマウイ島旅行グループに何故かかなづちが迷い込んでいた為、スノーケルは諦め、潜水艦で我慢する事にしました。ところが、予想以上の面白さに大興奮でした。
ラハイナの港からボートで潜水艦付近まで行き、浮上してくる潜水艦の様子を見た後、その潜水艦に乗り込み海底へ。ボートのキャプテンの奥様が日本人なのだそうで、かたことの日本語で精一杯もてなしてくださいました。潜水艦の中で貸してくれるヘッドセットから聞こえてくる日本語の案内は彼の奥様の声なのだそうです。海底の珊瑚礁、沈没船付近に色鮮やかな小さな熱帯魚が群れなしている光景は圧巻でした。残念な事は、水深が深すぎる為に赤い色が吸収されてしまい、赤みに欠けてしまっていることくらいでしょうか。30分位の潜水の後、浮上し、再びボートに乗り移り、今度はボートから潜水していくアトランティスを見送った後、ボートはラハイナ港へ。
参加する前には考えが及ばなかったのですが、Alan1で設定されている時間が観光にはベストだと思いました。何故かというと、2回目なので、ボートからアトランティスが浮上してくるところ、潜水するところ、が眺められる事と、日差しが強くなって来る時間なので海底が明るい事、午前中なので海が穏やかな事、さすがアランワンちゃんと思いました。

The whale-watching tour was nice to do. I believe that being on a smaller boat was well worth the price - more interaction, and closer to the action. We did see whale activity, but what we saw was somewhat disappointing (blows and sightings - not much extreme movement). The crew was informative and helpful. I believe it's a 50/50 shot at what, or if, you'll see! Good experience, but most-likely wouldn't do it again.

We have been on whale tours before, we come to Hawaii every year, and this is by far the best one we have ever been on. Some of the other tours are boring and slow - this Tour is fast and fun! The boat itself is an adventure and we were able to race out to the whales in a record amount of time. We will definitely be coming back to take this tour and next time we will bring the whole gang from Texas to go too!!

1/24朝9時の送迎無しツアーに参加。
小型船に乗り、潜水艦内での説明などを聴きながら潜水艦の所まで、、、
15分程でしたが、海上からの島の景色がとても綺麗で、1月だったので鯨も見られました。
海上で潜水艦に乗り移ります、、、
乗る順番は大人数のグループからで最後に乗船、操縦席とガイドさんのすぐ側の席でした。
一人参加の人どうし仲よくなれるようにでしょうか?
ガラスの厚さ15cm位、直径40cm程の丸い窓から水中を見ます、、、
美しい泡とともに、もう海底30m?という位早く海底に。そこは色の少ない青い世界でした。
静かに魚の多く見られる場所へ進みます、、、
右側の人にも左側の人にも魚が良く見えるように潜水艦の向きを変えながら、
珊瑚や海草、ウニ、魚の大群が泳ぐ中を進み、、と、そこへ大きな魚が現れ、
ガイドさんの「すしフィッシュ!」の声で艦内は爆笑!
意外と魚が少ないかな?と感じましたが、深く広い海中だから、散らばっているんですよね、きっと!
潜水艦は沈没船の所へ向い、ここに住む魚を見てから戻ります、、、
最後に3匹のエイがゆっくりと泳いで行くのが見られて感激でした。
ウミガメも見たかったのですが、「こんなに陸から離れた深い場所にはいない。」そうです。
パンフレットの絵にウミガメが描いてあるのは、なぜなのか?
泡とともに浮上、、、
海上で次のツアーの人達と交代して、港に戻りました。
貴重な潜水艦体験が出来たことや、海底2万マイルとはいきませんが、
自分では潜れない世界をじかに見ることが出来てとても良かったです。
それに、皆を楽しませてくれるガイドさんと楽しんじゃう皆と外国気分も満喫したツアーでした。
48人中、日本人は私ひとりだったのでとても不安でしたが、
日本語の説明書や艦内では音声ガイドの貸し出しもあるので大丈夫。
何よりスタッフが気を使ってくれたので、楽しい時間を過ごせました。
乗船時に写真を撮ってくれて、下船時に要る人は$20で買うことができました。
一人参加の私には空かさずガイドさんが一緒に写真に入ってくれてポーズ!
潜水艦のDVD(短いですが)も付いていてとても良い記念になりました。
よく解からなかったのですが、1年間、何処のアトランティスでも無料で乗れるチケットを
艦内で$25で発売していると
