This was a great adventure! Being in the cage is extremely rough, and you have to hold on to avoid getting thrown around by the huge waves, but this is a small problem! There must have been at least 15-20 sharks (Galapagos and sandbar sharks) swimming all around, and rubbing on the cage! I would recommend this activity to anyone who can handle a rough ocean. It was one of the best things we did in Hawaii!! Take anti-nausea pills, as the waves are huge, and the boat rocks hard (even for those who don't think they get seasick).

This was by far and away the most amazing experience of my life. Anyone that is coming to hawaii should go out and get in the water with these beautiful creatures. Its an experience unlike any other.

今回初めての参加でしたが本当に面白かったです!
船はかなり揺れましたが私たちの時は誰も船酔いしませんでした。スタッフの方は英語しか話せませんが陽気で特に不便な事もなかったです。
いざ始まってみると怖いというより滅多にできる体験ではないので本当に楽しく感動でした。
出来ればもっと沢山潜っていたかったです。
私たちが行ったのは9月末でしたが上がった後はすごく寒かったです。あと水中カメラは持っていってよかったです!

ハワイには何度も行っていますが今回は今までにしたことのないツアーに参加したくてこのツアーを見つけました。
最初はガイドが英語のみだしサメということで妻と二人で不安でしたが実際に参加してみるとガイドの方は親切でわかりやすい日本語まじりの英語で楽しませてくれました。
海に潜ると今までに見たこともない真っ青な海に数え切れない程のサメに圧倒されましたが終わるころには妻と二人でもっと潜っていたいねと言うほどのめり込んでしまいました。
ハワイに慣れて刺激を求める方にお勧めです。

2006年9月に参加しました。
ツアー参加者は私たち夫婦以外は、アメリカ人、オーストラリア人の白人が4人でした。
船上でスタッフの方が海中に檻を沈めてから中に入るまでの注意をしてくれます。
英語で足りましたが、日本人用には日本語の説明パネルがあります。
専用のボートで沖に行くと、出るわ出るわサメさんたちが。
そして海中に沈めた檻に入ってサメをみます。
いや~迫力でしたよ。
エサをどんどん投げ入れるので、サメは次々に来ます。
楽しかった~。
でもね、沖合い(?)なので割と波があるんです。その波に半分浮かんだ折の中でサメを見るので、結構酔います。
酔いは船にあがってからの方がきます。
夫とアメリカ人の女性は船上で戻してしまいました。
私はツラかったけど、我慢した。
吐く人はしょっちゅういるみたいで、スタッフさんは「気分悪い?、船の外に吐いて吐いて」みたいな感じであっさりでした。お水もたくさん用意されていて飲ませてくれました。
そんなハプニングもありながら、とても楽しい体験だと思います。オススメです。

Great trip, with a very knowledgeable captain and crew.
Bring your underwater camera for some pictures of a lifetime,,,, so you think!
You will be back to enjoy this again.
Visibility was well over 50 feet and the water was a crystal clear deep blue.
When you are in the cage you are totally protected and safe, yet as the sharks come so close you feel as if you are out there with them.
The only bad thing for me were the pretty high waves, which made it difficult to hold the camera still. (As seen from the pictures)
This experience is on the 'To Do on the next trip' list.
Thanks everyone involved

There were so many of them. I expected one or two but there were more then a dozen. Captain Bubba and Brandon were fabulous. My husband didn't want to go but ended up not wanting to get out of the cage because he was having such a blast! Definately something to do again.

今回、初めてシャークツアーの参加しました。
息子14歳、父65歳、私39歳の3人の参加。
主人、娘、母は怖がり、ノースショアを探索しておりました。
酔い止めを飲んで舟に乗った私でしたが、かなりの揺れに、
海に潜る前から、少々気分は悪かったです。ノースショアは、冬場はもっと波が出るでしょうから、冬に参加される方は覚悟がいります。
・・・が、外国人の方々が2組入ったあと、私達の番で、いざ潜ってシュノーケルで海の中を見ると、綺麗なサメが沢山、私達の檻の周りを泳いでいて、一気にテンションが上がりました!!
神秘的で、本当に美しかったです。
スタッフの方も、日本語はほんの少ししか通じませんが、日本語で書いてあるマニュアルもありますし、大丈夫です。
息子は、またやりたい!!と言っています

This was are favorite activity. You are taken out 3 miles from the shore in 400+ ft of water and put in a cage while chum is thrown from the boat. Then its a shark fest. We seen about 20+ Galapagos sharks. Bring a waterproof camera to capture the excitement. It was really difficult for us to get pictures because the water was so choppy, but out of 27 pictures we got 20 great pictures.

I cannot stress enough how fun and exciting this activity was! I went on the early morning boat out to see sharks on a rainy, gray morning and was THRILLED to see sharks from the boat before ever getting in the water. BIG ones. SCARY ones. But I got in the cage anyway and was then floated out behind the boat with other shark fans. The sharks swam all around the cage the entire time - so close I could reach out and touch them if I dared. I took all my underwater pictures with my disposable camera in about 3 minutes! This was just an incredible experience, which I would love to do again. It was nice to be underwater with them (snorkeling) where you could watch them so closely, although you don't have to get in the cage if you don't want to - you can see them from the boat. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

The dive was awesome. We had to reschedule due to bad weather, but I didn't mind because I appreciated the captain canceling the trip instead of taking me out for a bad trip. The experience was great, it made my time in Hawaii totally worth it. I would recommend this trip and this group to everyone. It's the best trip you can go on in the islands.

It is unfortunate that sharks have gotten the label of being mindless eating machines that attack anything that twitches in the water. I was able to experience first hand just how wrong this stereotype actually is.
The moment we arrived, sharks began to make there way to us. The regulars, the Sandbar Sharks, are attracted to the sound of the boat engine and quickly swam up to say hi!, but then an unexpected visitor decided to drop by. My jaw literally dropped when I saw a HUGE tiger shark circling the boat. Then another came by...then ANOTHER! We were lucky since Tiger Sharks are fairly rare.
As the first four made there way into the shark cage, the remaining four, including me, waited on board and watched the sharks from the surface. These creatures just circled the cage and boat and at times a Tiger Shark would pop his head out of the water to munch on some fish. This shark could have easily bitten the crew member, but all he (she?) did was nibble and go.
If anything, it

Wow, wow and wow!!!! This was a truely amazing experience. To be that close to sharks in the water, to look them in the eye and feel their distain...... what a feeling. For anyone thinking of doing this trip, I seriously recommend doing the 7am dive, especially if you're going while the Tradewinds are still blowing. It was a little rough when we were out there and it would have been much worse later in the day. Also, if you've never snorkelled before, buy yourself a mask and practice for a couple of days beforehand, its not at easy as it looks. You'll get much more out of it if you know what you're doing with your mask and snorkel.

ハワイには良く行くので、クジラやイルカのクルーズは何度も参加してますが、前から気になっていたので、今回はじめてシャークツアーに挑戦してきました。
たしかに酔いました。
もともと船に強くないので、心配な人は酔い止めの薬を持っていったほうが良いと思いました。
日本人にはまだまだ人気が弱いらしいですが、一緒に参加したアメリカ人たちのハシャギようと言ったらありません。彼らは血の気が多いのかな??
サメと言うと怖い印象がありますが、ノースの海で見たハワイのサメは美しく、泳ぐ姿はなぜか見とれてしまいました。
日によって、会えるサメの数は違うようですが、見れないという日はほとんどないみたいですね。お勧めは、レンタカーなどで終日ノース・ハレイワ方面のプランを立てて、空き時間をサメツアーにあてるという感じですかね?
それだけ行くともったいない気もしますが、一度は参加する価値ありと思います。

個人的にはとても怖かったです。が、あんなに間近でサメを見れることもないと思い、いい思い出になりました。
確かに船はとても揺れるので酔い止めは必須ですね。

当方は数人のグループで参加しましたが他には1人で参加されている方も2組いらっしゃいました。このページで予約した我々は送迎は無かったのでレンタカーを借りて現地まで行ったのですが、他のグループは送迎付で来ていました。日本語も通じませんがボディランゲージなどで何とか大丈夫でしょう。結構揺れが有るので酔いやすい方は酔い止めを必ず飲んで乗船してください。鮫がいる地点は本当に海が綺麗です。たくさんの鮫を見れますが結局鮫を見るしかないので数分で飽きてきます。しかも柵が波でゆらゆらするので柵に入ってから酔う方もいました。綺麗で透き通る海で鮫を見たい方はぜひ参加を
