It was fun, we were waiting for the climax once we got up there but never got it. There was a young girl and her grandpa and the staff was really good with them. There is a big push for tipping, despite the cost of the activity. We used their transportation and they were reliable.

This parasailing experience is awesome. The kids had a great time (it helped that I offered $20 for a "really good ride.) A crew member even offered to take pictures with my camera for me rather than charge for using theirs (and he took some really unique ones.) The crew was friendly. The shuttle service was on time (though we could have done without the pet bird in the cruise.) I highly recommend this company.

The 4 hour guided kayaking excursion was amazing! We had Matt and Andy and could not have asked for better guides! They made the entire excursion so much fun! My husband and I cannot wait to come back again!

My boyfriend and I went parasailing to celebrate our anniversary, and it was awesome! The crew was polite, interactive, and entertaining, but at the same time safe and professional. The boat ride and the parasailing itself was lots of fun! I thought that it would be scary, but it was really easy and exciting and I wasnt that afraid at all. It was also romantic to parasail with my boyfriend, so this is a great activity for couples! (But friends and family as well.) I would suggest this activity to everyone, and would gladly do it again =]

Firstly,at best my partner is a moderate swimmer, so she really isn't confident in the water.
We booked a 4 hour kayaking activity with some apprehension. I can honestly say it was the best day of our holiday.
Not only because Lanakai beach was fantastic but mainly because of the young staff, like Andy and Nick our guides. The staff don't wrap you up in cotton wool. They are young, laid back but professional if needed and full of local knowledge.
Super, super day. Many thanks. Mandy and Mark (UK)

It was fun, but it was a very windy day! The seas were rough which made our parasailing very interesting! My husband, 6 year old and I flew together. I was squished in the middle and I also felt a bit sea sick. It wasn't as enjoyable as I thought because of the wind, but it was fun! The crew was wonderful!

This was one of the most beautiful activities I did while in Hawaii. It was great exercise and I would reccommend doing this with a partner. I did this by myself and I found it quite difficult, but then again I'm not in good shape at all. May be easier for someone who is in shape. The beaches are so beautiful that I ended up comming back on my own a few days later. Take an underwater camera because the view is great.

The parasailing staff were awesome! It was a first time experience for my mother and boyfriend and they made it wonderful. The staff were very knowledgeable and friendly. They even offered a kamaaina rate to my father which allowed him to be on the boat with us. He really enjoyed that. We will definitely do it again someday and recommend to friends and family.

All of the staff at Hans Hedemann are just wonderful, from the driver, to the instructor at the shop, all the instructors in the ocean, and even the cameraman! Everyone was just so friendly, laughing and smiling, and making sure we were having a good time. My fiance and I had an awesome time and would recommend this surf school to everybody. The pictures came out great, thank you camera man!

It was very memorable. The guy who picked us up from our hotel was entertaining. He has a little pet love bird in his van. He let us hold it and take pics with it. Our guide on the boat was funny too. He took pics on my camera and his (for purchase). Very friendly staff.

This was an awesome adventure, combining snorkeling with kayaking. We kayaked to two different location, on being Chinamen Hat and another corel reef beach. Our guide, Nick, was great as well as a certified cpr and kayaking rescuer.
The senery was beautiful and we had plenty of time for snorkeling and walking around at our locations. Lunch was nurishing and refreshing.
Highly recommended for physically fit persons.

We had a great time on the boat, with the crue (they made us feel so comfortable and were on top of the situation - it was our first experience parasailing) and especially in the air.
We were flying above the Pacific Ocean :) This is one of the best things you could experience in your life.

生まれて初めてサーフィンやりましたが、かなり楽しかったです!!
海に入る前にお店でパドリングなどの講習があり、その後
海に移動。さっそく本番。
先生かなり厳しかったですが、皆さん波乗りできていて、とても楽しめました!!!
午前中のコースだったのですが、終わった後、ショッピングに行ったり、1日を有意義に使えました。
おすすめです。
ただ、次の日は腕が筋肉痛&サンゴ?で足の裏を切ったのでつらかったです。

最初にショップの中でパドリングや立ち方を教えてもらいました。日本語がほとんど通じなかったのですが、理解できるまで何度も教えてくれたので、全然困らなかったです。
海でレッスンを開始して、最初は大きな岩やサンゴが怖くて立てなかったのですが、落ち着いてやればすぐに乗れるようになりました。コーチ達は本当に面白い人たちで、波を待っている間もいっぱいしゃべってくれてほんとに楽しかったし、何度も励ましてくれてやる気を起こさせてくれるので、体が疲れていても最後までがんばれました!
また行きたいなと思いました!!

海に向かう前に、店内でボードに立つ立ち方を教わりました。その先生は日本語(カタコト)で教えてくれましたが、
海に入ってからの先生は、日本語は全く理解できず、「こいで」「立って」「こっち来て」「危ない」以外は全て英語でした。
私は英語が全くダメなので、わからない事や、聞きたい事があっても理解してもらえず、海の中では不安でした。
サーフィンは日本で1回遊び程度にやった事があるので、いちから教えてもらわなくてもそれなりにできましたが、私の連れは全く初めてで運動もできる方ではなかったので、パドリングもうまくできなかったのですが、放置されたり、あまりいいスクールではないかなと思います。
海の中の先生は4人くらいいましたが(生徒はいっぱい)、そのうちの黒人の先生は特に厳しいというか、ひどかったです。前に生徒がいるのにそこに向かって平気でボードを押されたりして、ぶつかったら一大事なのに。。。
サーフィンの経験が全くなく、英語も全くわからない方は厳しいと思います。

スクール事務所に集合して、簡単にサーフボードの上にどうやって立つのかを練習後、二人で2枚づつサーフボードを持って道を渡ってビーチまで歩き、即水に入って先生の後についてこいでいきます。運動不足の私はこのあたりで既にへとへとでした。先生の「こいで!」「立って!」の声にあわせて、後は必死。その日の参加者はすぐに全員板の上に立つことができました。風を切って進むときは本当に爽快です。本当に参加してよかったです。一つだけ、難点は、海の底が岩?サンゴ?だらけでした。ホテルに帰って足を見たらたくさんの擦り傷から流血していました。(笑)何か対策をしてゆくと良いと思います。

This experience was sooo much fun. Our guides dipped us in the water and also slid us across the water which was really cool. The staff was excellent, but I only wish they let us go up higher and for longer because we were only up in the air for about 5 min. But other than that, it was really fun and highly recommended.

We really enjoyed this parasailing trip. It was so exciting and the crew was wonderful. We would do it again in a heartbeat. Our youngest is 12 years old and he had a great time. 9 of us went for just over 300 dollars. The time we each spent in the air was amazing. We felt like we got our money's worth!

This was a wonderful opportunity to get a different perspective on Hawaii. It was very peaceful floating above the bay and looking at Honolulu and Diamond Head. It was our first time parasailing. The crew made it very relaxing and stressed safety. We enjoyed dunking our feet in the ocean, before we landed on the boat. It was well worth having them take the pictures for us. They turned out really well, much better than if we had tried to take pictures ourselves. We would definitely do this activity again.
