Honolulu Attività acquatiche

L'operatore ci ha comunicato il rinvio del tour prenotato solo la mattina stessa, un po' troppo all'improvviso, per fortuna avevamo scelto il turno pomeridiano; il giorno dopo, l'appuntamento era al molo F-28, ma anche lo staff è arrivato in ritardo. Per chi non ha mai fatto snorkeling e non ha molta dimestichezza con il nuoto, ci vuole un po' di tempo per abituarsi all'acqua, ma abbiamo visto molte tartarughe marine e il panorama è stupendo.

On time, smooth, guides were very knowledgeable. We saw a pod of dolphins from the boat, 2 whales from a far, and swam with a sea turtle. Facilities, drinks and food were good and plenty. Everything was very comfortable.

We saw both dolphins and turtles. We got transportation to and from Aulani Disney. We were worried because the bus was 20 minutes late arriving for the pickup. They also lent us prescription goggles. Our Japanese-speaking guide, YUJI, was very helpful and explained everything thoroughly. He stayed with us the whole time, from when we got off the bus until after the dive when we had our meal (a delicious sandwich). The photographer, Parker, the female guide, Joana?, and the captain were full of energy and really livened things up. Sorry we didn't have much cash for a tip. As you can see in the photos, the ocean is truly beautiful. We'll definitely be back.

Having a Japanese crew member (RYUICHI-san) made the experience safe, fun, and worry-free. The other crew members were also kind and attentive, which was really great. From a Japanese perspective, the water is cold, the waves are surprisingly high and can sweep you away... motion sickness medicine is a must. Don't forget a bath towel. My 6th-grade son wasn't used to the snorkeling mask, so he took off the fins and swam with swimming goggles. It's a bit pricey, but wearing a wetsuit would make the experience more comfortable.

nice view for the island costal line, can spot sea turtles, dolphins. The wave is rough, try not to eat too many before the trip.

relaxing cruise with great music selection. If you’re interested in swimming they stop for 30 minutes and it’s BYOB
