This was probably one of our more strenuous/lengthier hikes (water and proper footwear are highly recommended- it can get slippery on the trail). It was a lot of fun. We did cross some streams which were a bit difficult for some. You will get sweaty, wet, and dirty. No bathrooms, of course, so be prepared.
Great views. Tour guide was excellent, very passionate, helpful, and knowledgeable! Lunch was pretty good- everyone seemed to like it. Private mountain pool swim was enjoyed by most.

2016年4月4日に行きました!ワイキキのホテルと船着場までの送迎付きで、とっても楽でした!マイクロバスも船も英語のみなので、英語が得意じゃない方はちょっと理解するのに苦労するかも。ワイキキからノースショアまで車で約50分。船に乗ってサメスポットまで約20分。かなり揺れます!船酔いする方は要注意!水とガムなど、酔い止め以外にも持参した方が良いかも。船に乗り込んだら、船長さんから、注意事項を説明いただいた後に、2チームに分かれて、支給されるシュノーケルを装着して沖にある檻に入ります。2〜3mほどの肉食のサメが20匹ほど泳いでいました。檻の近くまで泳いできますが、おとなしい(人間に慣れているのかな?)あまり怖くありません!15分ほど海の中でゆらゆらとシュノーケリングを楽しんで、チーム交代。チップは船の中にあるチップ入れへ入れます。任意です。ビデオは別途70でGoProで撮ってくれます。オリジナルTシャツも販売されていました。

Such an amazing experience! I have been wanting to swim with sharks since I was a child, and have always been fascinated by them. Being in a small group of 6 makes the experience much more personal, and you get a good amount of swim time. We had 10 sharks total on our swim, all varying at different times, not all at once. My brother came along for the experience and he loved every bit of it, as I did. I am so glad I did this, and can't wait to do it again one day!!

My girlfriend and I wanted an uncomventional experience and found these guys. the entire experience was an unforgettable journey. The crew on the boat made us feel like we were life long friends and they put safety at the top of the list. We were close to the animals and got a glimpse into their environment. If you want to get in the water and see the Sharks and truly see the marine world as it is then take this adventure. You absolutely will not regret it. I will be booking a second go on our next trip!

My friend and I were completely freaking out before we went out on this tour, but afterwards, we just wanted to go again and again! There is nothing as strangely calming and thrilling than to be in the open ocean with what seems likes hundreds of sharks swimming below you.
With only six passengers, we all got lots of attention and assistance, and during the ride out, our safety guides told us all about the sharks and other creatures we would see as well as what to do while we are in the water. There was not a moment after I boarded the boat that I felt uneasy or unsafe. I knew that the captain and crew had not only our best interests at heart, but the sharks as well.
It was a humbling experience to be in the shark's home and it is something that I will treasure forever!

OK, so the idea of going to 'find' sharks as opposed to avoiding them at all costs can take a little getting used to. However once I'd gotten over that, I have to say this is one of the most exhilarating experiences I've had (and enjoyed) on the island.
There's two basic times that you can go out, Super early or Early, Yes that's right, Don't plan on a late night in the bar the night before trying to drum up Dutch courage because this boat leaves early and you want to get your sleep in.
After a leisurely 20-25 mins boat ride out (i think they said about 2 miles) to the dive site you arrive in an open water area, engines are cut and you pull up next to the cage. A quick chat from the crew, and two groups are selected A & B, This ensures you have maximum space in the cage and is a really cool idea.
We climbed in first, GoPro's on and ready to start shooting...
The cage is actually rather large and you definitely want to be up close to the bars hold on, and go down to get your first glimpse... I'm not going to say much more on what you'll see but I will say, This is a guaranteed sharks (plural, many lol) shark tank dive. They big, upclose and personal and you are totally safe in your secure housing...
You get ample time to take selfies, group shots, dive down again, hold the bottom of the cage etc as these amazing creatures swim all around you.
I'd forgot my wrist strap for my cam, No problem, The crew guy noticed as I was getting ready ad gave me a cool wrist-strap for it (thick rubber band!) Awesome Service.
Highly Recommended. 5*

ツアー自体はすごく楽しかったです。ノースショアはサーフィンで有名な高波のビーチなので、目的地まで向かう間はかなり揺れます。普段、船酔いしない私でも気分が悪くなりました。
自分以外にも4~5人気分の悪そうな方がいましたし、吐いている方もおられました。ツアーに参加される方は酔い止めをお忘れなく。

The hike was one of the highlights of my trip. I loved the river crossings even though the river made all of my clothes really wet and went up to my chest, since I am only 4'11". Keola taught us many Hawaiian words including freshwater, wai, saltwater, Kai, and Life, Keola. He was very knowledgable about the history of the island and the Kamehameha family. The best part was probably talking with our fellow hikers and the small lake where we ate lunch. We will definitely do one of the other tours as well.

旦那と二人で朝イチの部で参加しました。
ちゃんと予約できてるか不安でしたが、時間通りにサメの絵が大きく載った車でお迎えにきてもらいました( ˊᵕˋ )朝5:30でさすがにつらかったですが(笑)
車で1時間ほどで到着し、船に乗って出発!!!
クルーのみなさんは全く日本語はしゃべれないので、日本語表記の注意書きを読みました。日本語はしゃべれないけど、ジェスチャーなどで伝わるのでぜんぜん問題ありませんでした♪サメがいるスポットまでの道のりもサメの人形で脅かしてきたり、具合悪くないかとか気にかけてくれてとても良い人たちでした。
ポイントについたら水面にたくさんのサメが!!!
私達夫婦の順番は3番目だったので、水面のサメを見たりしてました。
ポイントまでの道のりは全然平気でしたか、船が止まるとすこーしずつ酔ってきました(笑)みなさんそんな感じでした(笑)私たちは吐くまではなかったけど、何人かは吐いていてつらそうでした(;▽;)
でも自分たちの番になるとテンションが上がり、船酔いなんて吹っ飛びました!
目の前で見えるサメたちはとても美しかったです!檻にぶつかってくるなんて危険な事はなく、檻のまわりをぐるぐると泳いでる感じです(*˘︶˘*)10匹以上いました♪でも中には檻の中で波酔いして、具合悪そうな方もいました(;▽;)酔いやすいかたはオススメ出来ないですね(;▽;)
でもすごく貴重な体験が出来ました!!!

私はほぼ泳げず、シュノーケルでも怖くて潜れませんが
嫁はダイバーなのですが、何か一緒に海のアクティビティをやりたいとの事で
これだったら何とかなるか。。。と申し込みました。
送迎や現地での対応は、特に問題はなく普通です。
裸足になって船に乗り込み、20人ほどで沖へ行くんですが日本人は6名ほど。
途中で日本語のレクチャーファイルを読みます。
ノースショアの海はそこそこ時化ており、かなり船が揺れました。
一緒に行ってた日本の学生グループもほぼグロッキーに。
船酔いに弱い人はやめとく方がいいです。
順番が来て檻に入ってからも、波は荒れて苦しいです。
後で聞いたのですが、ノースショアは7~8月くらいだけらしいです、おとなしいのは。
ちゃんと鮫は間近で見えたので、好きな人にはいいアクティビティですが
個人的には非常にきつかったです。。。身の程知らずでしたね。
嫁はたいそうよろこんでおりました。

Wife and I loved this tour. She was nervous going into it but once we got out there and she saw the other two groups go in prior to ours it helped to calm her nerves. The crew was great and very knowledgeable about the area and what we were seeing.
We felt very safe the entire time and thought the water was so blue and clear. Visibility in the cage was about 100ft in either direction.
Only thing I would suggest is to make sure you take something for Motion sickness prior to going out like we did. There were several on the boat who got sick several times while we were stationary next to the cage and a few others that got sick while in the cage.
It was a bucket list item for us and we are so happy we did it. We also got their video package which was $75 for a SD card recording of our time in the cage.

送迎付きの7時の部に夫婦で参加しました。
私たち以外に1組だけ日本人がいましたが、その他は外国人ばかりでした。
乗り場に付いたら、乗り場付近の丘の上でトイレをすませてから船に乗ります。船の上にはトイレも着替える場所もありませんので、ここで着替えるしかありません。また、船に乗る前に靴を脱いで1つの箱に入れるので、汚れてもいいサンダルを履いていった方がいいです。
船上で説明を受けますが、すべて英語なので英語が聞き取れない人は何を言っているか全くわかりません。私たちの時は日本語の説明書もありませんでしたが、ケージに入る時には簡単な英語で注意してくれるし、シュノーケル着用時もチェックしてくれるので、英語がわからなくてもそれなりに安全に楽しめると思います。
5人ずつの3グループに分けられ、サメのいるスポットに到着するとグループごとに順番に呼ばれ、シュノーケルを付けてケージに入ります。
酔い止め薬を飲んで行きましたが、結局吐きました。吐くと少し楽になりますし、サメも寄ってきます(笑)。移動中よりケージを設置した後の船の方が揺れが激しいです。この時に船酔いしにくい夫も吐いていました。ぐったりして寝ている人や、クールな顔でさらっと吐いている人もいたので、船酔いする覚悟で行った方がいいと思います。あと空腹状態で行った方がいいです。
スタッフの人は船酔い時に心配してくれたり、吐いた後にティッシュをくれたりと、とても気さくで親切でした。
船の上からも少しサメが見えますが、ケージの中に入ると10匹くらいいて、とても興奮しました!たまに近づいてくると目や体の傷までよく見えます。ケージが揺れるので揺れに合わせて丸まって浮きながら見ていると楽です。ケージの下に張り付いて写真撮っている人もいました。
サメを見ることができて本当に感動したのですが、やはり吐き気が少しつらかったので星4つにしました。

If you like sharks this is the trip for you. There was plenty of sharks to see. They were mostly 6-8 feet long. They surrounded the cage and even a barracuda came to see us. I felt completely safe in the cage and so did my kids. My daughter(13) was a little apprehensive before getting into the cage but once in there she was fine. The only bad thing was that the water was a little rough so the cage was getting tossed around some but it was all good.

Our guide was very knowledgeable about history of Hawaii and some of the plants and trees we came across on the hike. I enjoyed tasting the fruits we picked along the way. He also was very accommodating and kind since it was our first time to hike in the area. Though our guide did a great job, I expected more out of the hike. Yes, the hike was challenging in the sense that we walk along the edge and on rocky terrain;however it was not scenic and it felt like the hike was too short. The swimming hole was not a swimming hole to me. It look like a little creek and the water was not clear as I expected. I also expected to see a waterfall along the way, but didn't get to see any. I had more fun hiking on our own when we went to Maui, the road to Hana, because of the scenic view on top of the great work out we got from it. In short, not memorable and it was like something was missing.
