~~FLYING HIGH
We had no idea what to do the last day of our vacation, I am so glad the staff at Hawaiiactivities.com mentioned "Well why don't you guys do some Parasailing!"... this activity totally reeked of AWESOMENESS!!
This was my wife's first time parasailing, she screamed, but she loved it!. We had a terriffic time! The crew was great and even let my wife drive the boat around the Waikiki Coastline.

Beautiful
We did the Half-Day Afternoon Hawaiian Experience after we spoke to the knowledgeable staff at Hawaiiactivities.com who recommended this activity to my husband and I.
We spent the afternoon 1st off with a lovely boat ride in a 800 year old sacred Hawaiian fishpond. Beautiful sights of the mountains and we had a good tour guide who told us stories of the fishpond as well as the ranch! After the boat ride was done, we did the movie sites tour and seen a lot of spots where many films were made. Dinner was absolutely delicious! If you want a nice way to explore a different part of the island that a lot of people don't get to experience, take this tour! You will not be disappointed!

Luau with my Family!
I took my family to this Luau because it was my daughter's birthday, and oh boy we had a good time!
We had a beautiful canoe ride and a tasty Hawaiian Buffet Dinner! I even got to see a Hawaiian sunset with my wonderful wife. Overall, we had a wonderful time! I would definitely recommend this luau!

Morning Whale Watch & Snorkel BBQ Cruise (from Kailua-Kona Pier)
We Saw DoLpHins! >_<
My kids wanted to see some dolphins, and I am so glad the wonderful staff at Hawaiiactivities.com helped me choose the best one for my family!
Breakfast and lunch was included! Plus, they had a waterslide which my kids LOVED! The staff was friendly and very helpful in adjusting my son's snorkel mask. We seen a lot of dolphins swimming around so we were not disappointed.
Views of the coastline was beautiful and the water was so crisp and refreshing. Next time we visit the Big Island, I am definitely doing this activity. Thank You Body Glove and Hawaiiactivities.com!!

a Ranch full of history!!
Got to see a lot of good sites from the movies that they filmed at the ranch. Even got to see a hillside that looks like 2 gorillas kissing (see the picture!)
The ancient pond was beautiful and peaceful, and the mountain range view from the pond is downright gorgeous. Dinner was very tasty. I would definitely come back to do this again!!

Sunset Sail in luxury!
My mom has never gone sailing before, so what an absolute treat this was to bring her on a Sunset Sail with me and my daughter. We enjoyed every single minute of it. It wasn't one of those Booze Cruises where everyone is loud and getting their fill of free booze, this one I was able to relax with my daughter, enjoy a drink and watch the sunset.
The crew mates were so friendly, drinks were top notch, and the Spirit of Aloha is in great shape to handle the open sea!
I definitely recommend this to anyone looking for a good and simple sunset cocktail sail!

Very Convenient Snorkel Excursion!!
My 6 year old daughter wanted to do some snorkeling so I took her on the spirit of Aloha. I only had very little time to spend because we had a Luau later in the evening, this excursion was PERFECT!! Weather was beautiful and the sail boat was very clean and spacious! My daughter had a blast in the water and enjoyed the snacks and the time the crew spent sailing over the waves. Good fun! AND we made it back in time to get dressed for our Luau.. WONDERFUL way to spend the afternoon, I would definitely do this again!

Family Day at Kualoa Ranch!
We had an amazing day at Kualoa Ranch! I live on O'ahu and I would always drive pass the ranch, so this was my first time EVER to experience Kualoa Ranch.
We did the Movie Sites and Ranch Tour, and got to go inside a huge bunker where Pearl Harbor/ Lost/ Tears of the Sun was filmed. Drove around to a spot where Jurassic Park was filmed, seen Godzillas footprint and other various movie sites. The best part about this tour was being able to go into Ka'a'awa valley, the scenery IS BEAUTIFUL!!!
2nd tour we did was the Jungle Expedition, hold on tight because this is seriously a bumpy ride! We drove up some massive steep hills to get to a lookout for an awesome scenery.. my kids loved it, only downside is..the tourguide did not give us any narrative tour or point out much stuffs. However, my sons did all the talking..they pointed out to other people on the jeep what the Kukui Nut Tree was, Mountain Apples, and other plants.Beautiful views of Mokoli'i Island (Chinaman Hat).

GREAT DOLPHIN WATCH CRUISE!!!
We seen so many dolphins and we were even fortunate enough to see Bottlenose Dolphins which are much much bigger than the frequent spinner dolphins. Bottlenose Dolphins do not come around the islands very often so this was a real treat, maybe even a once in a lifetime opportunity!!
The crew was very friendly and they held my sister's hand in the water because she is afraid of sea animals. But ONCE she put her mask on and placed her head under the water, it was a whole different world for her filled with beautiful colored fish and a huge reef system that surrounded her.
Wonderful crew, Tasty food, everyone on-board was really friendly and after a nice dip out in the deep blue ocean, you are treated to an open bar. Great Stuff! Thank you Hawaiiactivities.com and Ocean Joy Cruises for a wonderful dolphin watch and cruise!

What an amazing night!
I took my sister on this sail last night..and this is by far the best sail (tour wise) this island has to offer. Tropical winds, beautiful deep blue ocean and amazing hawaiian coastal scenery.
Crew on-board both the Spirit of Aloha and Honi Olani are superb and exceed your service expectations. Fortunately, for the adult beverage people, this became an Open bar sail (Beer is usually $1 and mixed drinks are $2) but this is because the boat departed late.
No one comes on-board to get drunk or rowdy..we were all in silent agreement to enjoy our drinks, enjoy our scrumptious dinner and have a wonderful time.. everyone on-board did just that.
Everyone who boarded the vessel were strangers, but we all became friends by the end of the night. Thank You Hawai' Nautical for a wonderful evening of good food, drinks, friendly conversations and laughter.
