Hawaii
I was worried about seasickness, so I took motion sickness medication in advance! They regularly checked on my health, and I was able to enjoy the activities! I highly recommend this experience, but for those who get seasick, I suggest taking motion sickness medication.
船酔いに不安があったので事前に酔い止めを服用!
体調面に関しても定期的に気にかけてくださりアクティビティも楽しむことができました!
ぜひ経験していただきたいアクティビティですが、船酔いする方は酔い止め服用をオススメします。
I've always wanted to try this, but I didn't have the courage... After seeing it on TV, I thought I would give it a go this time! In the end, I'm glad I did! The only mistake I made was that in January, even in Hawaii, it was a bit cold to be in the water.
今までやってみたかったのですが、勇気が出ず…
テレビで見て今回はやってみようと思いました!
結果的にやって良かった!
ひとつだけ失敗したのは、1月だとハワイとは言え水に浸かると少し寒かったことくらい。
The staff were bright and funny, and they were the best. The donuts we got on the boat were delicious, but the juice was just okay. The place to disembark from the boat is in 1.5m of water. It's a tour mainly focused on attractions. Swimwear is a must. The attractions were enjoyable and felt safe with the staff's supervision.
スタッフは明るく面白い人たちでサイコーでした。
船でもらったドーナツは美味しかったけど、ジュースはイマイチかも。
船から降りる場所は、1.5mの海におります。アトラクションメインのツアーです。水着は必須。アトラクションはスタッフの見守りもあって安心で楽しめました。
I participated on December 31, but the boat was in the shade and the bus's air conditioning was cold, so a change of clothes is necessary.
12/31参加でしたが、船は日陰、バスのエアコンは寒いので着替えは必要です。
We are very pleased to hear that you were able to enjoy the tour with peace of mind. Thank you for participating. From all of us at KBOS.
この度は安心してツアーを楽しんで頂けた様で大変嬉しく思います。ご参加ありがとうございました。KBOS スタッフ一同
I attended with high expectations, but contrary to my hopes, I wasn't that impressed. There are many more beautiful beaches on the East Coast, so I think it's better to look for those. The live music on the ship was very good.
期待して参加しましたが、期待に反しそれほど感動できませんでした。東海岸にはもっときれいなビーチがたくさんありますので、それを探していった方がいいと思います。船内の音楽演奏は、とても良かったです。
We are very sorry to hear that we could not meet your expectations despite your participation in the tour. The sea's appearance can vary due to weather and tidal changes, so we would be grateful if you could visit us again when the opportunity arises. Thank you for your feedback. From all the staff at KBOS.
この度はせっかくツアーにご参加頂いたのにご期待に沿えなかった様で大変残念に思っております。天候や潮の満ち引きなどによっても海の表情も異なりますので、また機会があればお越し頂けますと幸いです。ご感想を頂きありがとうございました。KBOS スタッフ一同
It was a beautiful day to head out to the sandbar. Glad we pick this excursion.
Mahalo for your review! - Team KBOS
It was fun! The banana boat was harder than I imagined, but my partner supported me, so I didn't get thrown off. However, I had muscle pain the next day. The jet ski was difficult to drive, but once I got the hang of it, I was able to go fast and enjoy myself. The parasailing offered great views, and the guide was an interesting American who spoke Japanese, so I was able to relax and have a good time.
楽しかった〜。
バナナボートは想像していた以上にハードでしたが、パートナーに支えてもらい振り落とされることはなかったです。でも、翌日筋肉痛😆
ジェットスキーは運転難しかったけど、コツを掴むとスピードも出せて楽しめました🎵
パラセーリング🪂は、イイ景色が見れたし、ガイドの人が日本語を話す面白いアメリカ人?だったので、リラックスして楽しめました♪
When riding a jet ski, it might be a tip to keep the handlebars as still as possible.
ジェットスキーは、ハンドルをあまり動かさいように固定するのがコツかも?
It was less crowded than Waikiki Beach, allowing us to relax and enjoy our time. We participated as a group of six across three generations, and it was great that we could choose bicycles, floaties, and pancakes from Boots & Kimo's. The kids played on the beach with the floaties almost without taking a break. Having Japanese staff made us feel reassured, and it was nice to be able to ask for recommendations. The plate lunch was also delicious. It was a tour I would like to join again.
ワイキキビーチよりも人が少なく、ゆったりとした時間を過ごせました。3世代6人で参加しましたが、自転車、浮き輪、ブーツキモズのパンケーキを選択できて良かったです。子どもたちはほとんど休むことなく、浮き輪を持ってビーチで遊んでいました。
日本人スタッフがいてくださったので、心強く、おすすめなども聞けて良かったです。プレートランチも美味しかったです。また参加したいなと思うツアーでした。
You can be taken to Kailua Town either in the morning or afternoon. If you think spending 5 hours at the beach is too long, that's also an option. Be careful with the bicycles, as the brakes are diffe
午前、午後のどちらかをカイルアタウンへ連れて行ってもらうことができます。ビーチに5時間は長いかなと思う方はそれもありだと思います。
自転車は、ブレーキが日本のものと違うので注意が必要です。
Dear Mi,
Thank you for participating in the tour and for writing a review. We are very happy to hear that you enjoyed the tour. Five hours really does fly by, doesn't it?
When you come back to Hawaii, please do come and visit us again. We look forward to seeing you.
Thank you.

The boat was well-organized and clean. Thanks to the presence of a dock, we were able to board without worrying about the waves.
We departed smoothly, cruised calmly, and returned to port without any issues.
The charm of the catamaran lies in being able to see up close how the vessel sits low in the water, powerfully facing the waves. With sails designed by Hilton, it bravely confronts the wind, making a strong sound as it flaps, all against the backdrop of a blue sky! This is what I thought a catamaran should be.
We departed smoothly, cruised calmly, and returned to port without any issues.
船は整理されていて綺麗な船でした。桟橋が有るため波を気にせずに乗船出来ました。
スムーズに出港し穏やかに快走しスムーズに帰港しました。
カタマランの魅力は船艇が低く波を被り力強く波に向って行く様子が間近に見れるのが最大の魅力てはないでしようか。
ヒルトンをデザインした帆で風に立ち向かい音を立て力強く羽撃くセールとその上蒼い空!これぞカタマランと思っていました。
スムーズに出港し穏やかに快走しスムーズに帰港しました

I cannot recommend it for those who are looking for the thrill of cutting through the waves.
波を切る刺激が欲しい方には、お勧めできません
I wish the day we went the clouds was not covering the sun so the water was a little bit cold . The staff was awesome and activities was there to do but there was a jelly fish lingering so people got stung . Beside that it was a great adventure.
Mahalo for your review. We are sorry for the day. We operate tours every day to ensure that people can enjoy the tour safely but the conditions of the ocean, such as jellyfish, vary from day to day and cannot be controlled. We hope you enjoyed your time at the sandbar to make you want to come back and visit us again. - Team KBOS
I was a bit worried because I'm not great with heights, but from start to finish, there was no fear of heights, and I had an amazing time.
若干高いところが苦手なこともあり、心配していましたが、最初から終わりまで、高さの怖さはなくて、最高に楽しめました。
So happy we decided to try out scuba scooters! It was an amazing way to get up close and personal with turtles and all kinds of fish. My kids are adventurous and loved every second. I am very claustrophobic and was just fine because each diver had their own helper for the entire time under water. I felt very safe! This really is something you should try! All the staff were professional and super encouraging. We loved this experience!
Be sure to take a towel for each person in your group.
This was one of the best (if not THE best) Hawaii adventure we've been on yet. Paddling and steering the kayak was definitely difficult for us older newbies, but we were able to figure it out and not capsize.
Our guide Jeffrey was very experienced and showed great patience with the group; we felt like he was one of the reasons we enjoyed the experience so much.
Thanks again for the memories...
The hiking trail is very slippery at times, we recommend comfortable shoes with some grip.
Aloha Barbie n Ken,
Wow! "The best" Hawaii adventure? Will if truth be told we really…really try to put on a good show we are never as good as our guides who are hand picked and give 100%+
Jeff is the consummate guide and has raised the bar and is a real pro.
Lastly, thanks for advising folks that the trail to paradise can be slippery.
A hui hou,
Micco/Head Guide
Staff charged me the memory card without asking if I ever need them.
I have no use for such huge memory stick; that was age old technology.
Overall, it was fun granted it was my virgin experience.
would I recommend my friends?
Probably no.
Know what you are signing up for.
After all, Honolulu/ Waikiki is a tourism hotspot.
During my stay in Waikiki, this was the most exciting activity nearby. Even those who are not good at surfing can ride the waves and experience the thrill. I recommend trying this canoe surfing before parasailing or jet skiing.
ワイキキ滞在の中で、最も近場で、最もエキサイティングなアクティビティです。
サーフィンが苦手な人も、波に乗り、爽快感を味わうことができます。
パラセーリング、ジェットスキーよりも、まずこのカヌーサーフィンをオススメします。
Please prepare a waterproof case that hangs around your neck for your smartphone to record a wonderful surfing experience.
素晴らしいサーフィン体験を記録する為に、首からスマートフォンをぶら下げるタイプの防水ケースを準備してください。
Dear Shimizu,
Thank you very much for participating in our outrigger canoe surfing. We are delighted to hear that you enjoyed it! Outrigger canoe surfing is a unique sport in Hawaii that can be enjoyed by the whole family, even those who cannot swim, as long as they are 5 years old or older. We look forward to your next opportunity to join us!
しみじみ様:この度は、弊社のアウトリガーカヌーサーフィンにご参加いただき、誠に有難うございました。とても楽しんで頂けたようで何よりです! アウトリガーカヌーサーフィンには5歳以上であれば泳げない方もご参加が可能ですので、ご家族皆様で楽しんで頂けるハワイ州唯一のスポーツです。次回の機会をおまちしております!
I was glad to receive such polite guidance! I was a bit anxious since it was my first time, but there were no problems at all! The friendly atmosphere was also great!
丁寧に教えていただけて良かったです!
初めてなんで少し不安でしたが何の問題も買ったです!
和気あいあいとした雰囲気も良かったです!
It's okay even for beginners!
初心者でも大丈夫です!
It became a wonderful memory of Hawaii that will remain in both my memory and records, both the stars and the sunrise. Next time, I want to participate again with my family.
星、日の出共に記憶にも記録にも残るハワイでの素晴らしい思い出になりました。次は家族でまた参加したいです。
The restroom is a public one and can't be described as very clean, so I felt that those who are concerned should take care of it beforehand.
トイレが公用のものであまり綺麗とは言えないため、気になる方は事前に済ましてから来た方が良いと感じました。
We visited Hawaii for our honeymoon and tried parasailing for the first time. I was nervous until we took off because I'm not great with the feeling of floating, but once we were up in the air, it felt amazing and the view was beautiful—it was the best! The local instructor was very cheerful and bright, and even though all five groups on the same boat were Japanese, everyone was able to communicate and have fun with the instructor.
The airtime was less than 10 minutes, but both my husband and I were very satisfied. If you're hesitating, I definitely recommend giving it a try! I will definitely do it again when I go back to Hawaii!
新婚旅行でハワイに訪れ、初めてのパラセーリングに挑戦してみました。私は浮遊感が苦手なので、飛び始めるまで緊張してましたが、いざ上空に行くととーーーっても気持ちがよく景色も綺麗で最高でした。インストラクターの現地の方もとても陽気で明るく、同じボートに乗った5組全員日本人でしたが、みんながみんな楽しくインストラクターの方とコミュニケーションを取れていました。
滞空時間は10分未満でしたが、それでも私も旦那さんも大満足でした。
迷っていたら是非体験することをおすすめします!
またハワイに行ったら必ずやります!
If you are prone to motion sickness, taking anti-nausea medication is essential. Additionally, you will pay the required tip at check-in, but you can also give tips to the instructors on the boat afte
酔いやすい方は酔い止め必須です。
また、受付時に規定のチップを払いますが、体験後にボート上でもインストラクターの方々にチップを渡せます。荷物はほとんど濡れません。
I had an amazing time! Everyone on the staff was great! We rode a banana boat, and the local guide took us to a spot where we could see sea turtles! The snorkeling was beautiful too, as the fish gathered when we scattered food! And the ocean was just stunning! My daughters, who are 8 and 6 years old, are already saying they want to go back.
めちゃくちゃ楽しめました!スタッフみんなが良い人!バナナボートに乗りましたが、牽引してくれる現地の方が海亀のいるところに連れて行ってくれました!シュノーケリングも餌をまくと魚が集まって来て綺麗でした!そしてとにかく海が綺麗!8歳と歳6歳の娘達もまた行きたいと言っています。
When getting out of the sea, it was cold with the wind, so a cover-up or bath towel was essential!
海から上がると風があると寒いので羽織りものやバスタオルが必須でした!
It seems you enjoyed encountering sea turtles and seeing many fish. Thank you very much for participating in the tour. From all the staff at KBOS.
ウミガメとの遭遇、沢山のお魚を楽しんで頂けてたようですね、この度はツアーにご参加頂き誠にありがとうございました。KBOS スタッフ一同
I went parasailing with my grandchild this time. The staff was friendly, and I felt safe doing it! My grandchild is saying they want to do it again.
孫と一緒にパラセーリングを今回しました。
Staffは親切で安心して出来ました!
孫もまたやりたいと言ってます。
The blue sky and the incredibly clear water. The staff's music added to the excitement of the Hawaii trip. Additionally, there are various activities available, so you can either be fully active or take it easy and relax.
青空と最高に澄み切った水。
スタッフさんの音楽がまたHAWAII旅をさらに盛り上げてくれました。また、いろいろなアクティビティがあるのでフルに動くもよし、休憩しながゆっくり過すのもいいと思います。
The bus temperature in Hawaii is set quite low, so I think it's better to have something to wear. The water is also cold, so you'll feel pretty chilly on the way back.
HAWAIIのバスの設定温度はかなり低めなので羽織るものがある方がいいと思います。水も冷たいので帰りはかなり冷え切ってしまいます。
Thank you very much for participating in the tour. From all of us at KBOS.

Clear guidance of the whole tour, helpful crew and they are passionate about making your tour pleasant. Definitely suggesting all to have this tour
Mahalo for your review! - Team KBOS
The experience of moving while listening to live Hawaiian music on the boat was amazing! I chose this plan to do SAP in the heavenly sea, and we were able to do SAP, snorkeling, and kayaking all in turns! Before we played, the staff always taught us how to do it. The staff were from overseas, but most of them spoke Japanese well, which was a great help! Since the playtime was long, I think it would be nice to take photos while waiting. In reviews of other tours, there were mentions of photo purchases being charged, but here there was none of that; in fact, the staff took pictures with our own phones, so I definitely recommend bringing a waterproof case for your phone! Even if you hang your phone around your neck to keep it dry, there’s a chance you might flip over in SAP and fall into the sea headfirst, so if it's not waterproof, your phone could be in trouble. I was worried because of reviews saying the boat was cold, and indeed, when I returned to the boat soaked from snorkeling, it felt so cold that my lips were numb. The drinks on the boat were only cold ones. So, after enjoying SAP at the end and warming up in the sun before returning to the boat, I felt much better about the cold. There were participants from various countries, and people of all ages, from small children to the elderly, and everyone seemed to be having fun. If you want to feel Hawaii, I recommend this plan! 😊
ハワイアンミュージックの生演奏を船上で聴きながらの移動が最高でした!天国の海でSAPが出来るプランを探してこちらを選びましたが、交代でSAPもシュノーケリングもカヤックも全て出来ました!遊ぶ前に必ずスタッフがやり方を教えてくれます。スタッフは海外の方ですが、ほとんどの方が日本語上手で助かりました!遊べる時間も長いので、待っている間に写真撮影などすれば良いと思います。他のツアーの口コミでは、写真の購入が有料だったなどありますが、こちらは一切そういうのは無く、なんならスタッフが自分たちの携帯で撮影してくれるので、必ず防水ケースに入った携帯を持参することをオススメします!首から濡れないように携帯を下げていたとしても、SAPでひっくり返って頭から海に落ちる事もあるので、防水じゃないと携帯がやばいことになります。船内が寒いとの口コミがあり不安でしたが、確かにシュノーケリングをして全身濡れた状態で船内に戻ると、口が悴むほど寒く感じました。船内のドリンクは冷たいのしか無いですし。なので、最後にSAPを楽しみながら身体を太陽で温めてから船内に戻ると、だいぶ寒さはマシに感じました。参加者にはいろいろな国の方がいて、年齢も小さな子からお年寄りの方がいて、みんな楽しんでいるようでした。ハワイを感じたい方は、こちらのプランがオススメです^^
A mobile phone in a waterproof case. The scenery is very beautiful, so please take a picture.
防水ケースに入った携帯。とても景色が綺麗なので、ぜひ撮って欲しい。

My family and I really enjoyed the sandbar trip with Kaneohe Bay Ocean Sports. They provided all of the needed sporting equipment (paddle boards, kayaks, snorkels, life vests). The paddle boarding was challenging and fun. Seeing the tropical fish and the coral reef were for me the best experience of the trip. The half day trip was the perfect amount of time on the sandbar. I also appreciated the free donuts and fruit juice (beer for purchase), and the live entertainment. My wife remained in the enclosed boat. Though the musicians didn't perform while at the sandbar, she enjoyed the relaxing views of the bay.
This tour is highly recommended!

The mountains visible from the car window on the way to Kailua Beach were impressive, and Lanikai Beach was also very beautiful.
カイルアビーチに行くまでの車窓から見える山もかっこよかったし、ラニカイビーチもとってもキレイでした。

Even though I don't understand English, the staff explained everything clearly with gestures. My younger child and I are a bit timid, so it felt like half fun and half scary. My wife and older child seemed to have a great time. There were about 10 customers during my experience, and each session lasted around 10 minutes, with two people experiencing it at a time. So we were on the boat for about an hour, and my family felt a little queasy.
英語がわからかなくても、スタッフの方がジェスチャーを混じえてしっかり説明してくれました。私と下の子は怖がりなので、楽しい半分怖さ半分と言う感じでした。妻と上の子はめちゃくちゃ楽しかったようです。私のときは10人のお客さんがいて、1回の体験がだいたい10分くらいで、2人ずつ順番に体験します。なので1時間くらいはボートに揺られ、うちの家族はみんな少し気持ち悪いかなくらいでした。
Depending on the order of experiences, it can get cold after the jabbing, as you'll be swaying on the boat, so having a windbreaker would be good.
体験の順番によっては、ジャボンした後もボートに揺られるので寒くなってくるので、風よけが1枚あるとよいです。
November in Hawaii is the rainy season, and my reservation was canceled just before the start date. I received an email saying to call the English-only reception, so if the weather looks suspicious, it's better to change your reservation on the website in advance. The day after I rescheduled, I flew through a rainy sky and saw a rainbow at my feet. I didn't have the luxury to take leisurely photos, but my feelings were: scary! Beautiful! Amazing! Quiet!
Luggage is stored in the space under the seat on the boat. A few times, I was splashed up to my waist or chest. If your hotel is nearby, you can return there afterward, but if it's far, there aren't many places to change (maybe just a public restroom on the beach after a bit of walking), so be careful about getting wet.
11月のハワイは雨季なのもあら予約日は開始直前で開催中止になりました。
英語のみの受付に電話する様にメールが来るので、天気が怪しい場合は先にサイトから予約変更するといいです。
振り替えた翌日はお天気雨の中飛んで、足元に虹が見えました。
ノンビリ写真を撮ってる余裕なんて無かったですが、怖い!綺麗!スゴい!静か!という感想です。
荷物は船の座席下のスペースに置いて飛びます。
海面には何度か腰下〜胸元くらいまでは落とされビシャビシャになります。
ホテルが近いなら終わった後にホテルに戻ればいいですが、ホテルが遠いと着替える場所とかはないので(あってもしばらく歩いたビーチの公衆トイレくらい)濡れたままでどうしよう…となるので気を付けてください。
A swimsuit and something to dry off with are essential since you'll be falling into the water.
海には落とされるので水着、拭くものは必須です。
My family has been in Hawaii for a week, and one of the last things we had to do was take a boat tour to Kaneohe sandbar. It came very highly recommended to us, so I found this tour and booked it! Mannnnn, this was THE SINGLE BEST thing we did all week. The boat crew was amazing. Captain Calvin was stellar, along with the whole entire crew. We were so impressed with how much fun we had! The weather was perfect for snorkeling, the kids had the best time being whipped around the ocean on the banana boat, the food was good, the music was amazing! Everything was just perfect. I didn’t want to get off the boat. Cannot lie, the Hawaiian people are the best people. Their kindness is unmatched. We had a great time. Thank you to everyone who made our boating experience amazing.
Bring some extra snacks, especially for your bigger kids. Make SURE you have sunscreen! Have fun!
Mahalo for your review & sharing pictures! We are very happy to hear that you had a great time. Hope you will join us again. - Team KBOS
Loved the crew. My fourth time, my children’s second time and my son’s girlfriend’s first time. Swimming by and with turtles. Like heaven y set water with the fish. Next time I am in Hawaii, will return! Thank you
Since I started going to Hawaii, this must be my seventh or eighth time experiencing the sandbar, and the staff provided excellent safety management and support. I am truly grateful. Thank you very much.
ハワイに行き始めてから、何度目になるでしょうか、サンドバーも7~8回くらい体験しておりますが、スタッフの方々が安全管理等素晴らしい対応をして頂きました。
本当に、感謝いたします。ありがとうございました。
Thank you very much for participating in the tour. We hope you enjoyed the tour with peace of mind. We look forward to your next participation. From all the KBOS staff.

Dan and Cheiko make everyone very safe and comfortable especially for beginners. Easy to follow them and they are nice and patient. If you are the first time snorkeling, highly recommend to take this tour! Worth it!
Thank you Irene! Glad you had fun. Hope we se you again.
