Oahu snorkeling

Diverti-me imenso como passageiro do barco! O capitão e o seu assistente foram muito prestativos enquanto esperávamos pelos que estavam na jaula. Voltarei da próxima vez com a família e amigos para estar na jaula. hehe

Fomos levados para um pequeno barco (poderia ser maior para ser menos agitado) e seguimos para o largo da costa. Gostaria que tivessem oferecido uma máscara de snorkel com grau (outras empresas de turismo ofereciam). Os tubarões chegaram bem perto em um momento, mas foi breve. Queria ter visto mais tubarões, mas isso não é algo que eles pudessem controlar.

The detailed explanation before the experience was very easy to understand. Having a Japanese guide also made me feel at ease participating! Everyone was friendly, and I had a fun experience. Although I'm not a strong swimmer, I was able to see many dolphins just by watching from the boat. In calmer waters, even those who aren't good at swimming could enter the water, use the slide, and touch coral that the guide retrieved. For lunch, we were served delicious sandwiches. You can also get photos taken by the guide in the ocean, though there is a fee! I'm looking forward to receiving them!

The day we went skydiving was right after Hawaii's strongest typhoon had passed. Although it looked sunny from the ground, once we took off, we realized the clouds were too thick for a safe landing. Our first attempt to take off wasn't successful, but we tried again shortly after and finally managed to have the experience. You need to hire a photographer separately, which costs about the same as another skydive, plus tips for both the instructor and the photographer. It's something to consider if you want a keepsake.

It's very convenient; the pier and check-in are right downstairs from the hotel. The submarine dive wasn't actually very deep, about 100 feet. The view of the fish on the left side that day wasn't as good as the right side, where someone reportedly saw a sea turtle.
