Hawaii
We went out to sea in a boat with a few groups and had a little boat riding experience, followed by parasailing in turns. We set up the parachute from the boat and took off from the moving boat. Gradually, the rope is extended, and we float up. The price varies depending on the length of the rope, and I chose the longest one at 150m. However, since we were moving in the boat, I couldn't tell if we actually reached 150m in height, but as you can see in the photos, it was really high. Of course, there’s no sound while flying. The flight lasts a few minutes, but it feels much longer.
As we ascended, my excitement grew, and I felt it was definitely worth it. Since I was holding my smartphone, I had to connect it to my arm with a strap; if I dropped it, I wouldn't be able to retrieve it from the sea. Be careful!
何組か一緒にボートで沖まで行き、ちょっとしたボートの乗船体験もでき、順番にパラセーリングです。船の上からパラシュートをセットして、走るボートの上から飛び立ちます。徐々にロープを伸ばして行きフワッと飛び立ちます。ロープの長さで金額が違いますが、私は1番長い150mを選択。でもボートで走りながらの為高さが150mなのか、斜めに上がる為分かりませんが、、、写真でもわかる様にすごく高いです。勿論飛んでる時は音がしません。数分のフライトですが、すごく長く感じます^_^
上がるとテンションも上がり、やって良かったなと、実感します。スマホを持ちながらなので腕にひもを繋いでないと、落としたら海なので探せません。ご注意を!
As it ends, it gradually goes down, and the staff jokingly drops you into the sea for a moment, so wear your swimsuit!
終わると徐々に下がり、係員がふざけて海に一瞬落としますので、水着着用で!
It was thrilling, and I definitely want to participate again on my next trip to Hawaii. The instructors and the boat operators were fun people, and I was able to enjoy it without feeling scared!
スリル満点、次回のハワイでも必ず参加したいです、インストラクターの方、船の操縦の方も楽しい方達で恐怖を感じる事なく楽しめました〜
I can borrow a locked toilet, but it's dirty...
鍵付きのトイレを貸してもらえるのですが、汚いのです…
It was amazing!
The clarity of the water, the variety and size of the fish were truly impressive!
I even got to meet a honu and swim with it!
My English is at a basic education level, and that's fine.
The guide speaks slowly to make it easy to understand.
While driving, they introduce recommended shops.
We stopped at a parking area for a location explanation, then had time for a briefing on how to use the snorkel, swimming precautions, and ordering additional rental items.
We rented a boogie board, but other parties rented life jackets.
最高でした
透明度、魚の種類、大きさ本当に見応えがあります!
ホヌとも出会えて一緒に泳ぐことができました!!
英語は義務教育レベルで問題ないです。
ガイドさんがわかりやすいようにゆっくり話してくれます。
運転中はおすすめのお店の紹介。
一旦パーキングに止めてロケーションの説明の後シュノーケルの使い方遊泳時の注意、追加のレンタル品のオーダーの時間がありました。
うちはブギーボードレンタルしましたが、他のパーティはライフジャケットをみんなレンタルしてました。
If you go a little deeper away from the sandy beach, you'll find more fish. To stay in the water as long as possible, I think it would be good to have items like a boogie board or a life jacket to res
砂浜から離れて少し深くなるところまで出た方が沢山魚がいます。なるべく長く海にいるためにもブギーボードやライフジャケットなど休めるようなアイテムがあるといいと思います。
楽しんで!!
We went to Hawaii and we loved it there. Now sandbar Hawaii at another level. Everything is including paddle boards, snorkeling, canoeing and you get live music and food. This was the cherry on top of our trip don’t plan on going without making this trip.

Originally, it was scheduled for January 30, but I received a call from Veltra the day before, asking me to change the date due to a warning being issued for the next day. So, I participated on February 1.
When I come to Hawaii, Hanauma Bay is an absolute must-visit and one of my favorite places. Although it was an early morning, I was able to enjoy it while there were fewer people. I encountered many fish and was very satisfied. The weather was great, and the view of Hanauma Bay from near the entrance was amazing!
Of course, I want to go again.
当初は1/30の予定でしたが、前日にベルトラさんから電話を頂き、明日は警報が出ているので日程を変更してくださいとのこと。そして2/1に参加させて頂きました。
ハワイに来たらハナウマ湾は絶対外せない大好きな場所。朝が早いけど人が少ないうちから楽しめました。たくさんの魚にも逢えて大満足でした。天候も良く、入場口付近から見たハナウマ湾は最高です!
勿論、また行きたいです。
The concession stand is located outside the entrance, so you cannot buy food and drinks once you enter. I recommend bringing your own. If you have time before the meeting time, you can go out and buy
売店は入場口の外にあるので、入場すると飲食物は買えないので、持参することをお勧めします。集合時間に余裕あれば、出てから売店で買えますよ。
At first, I was worried about whether I would be okay with heights, but once I got on the boat and it was our turn, soaring high into the sky, I felt amazing and was thrilled by the view.
最初は高所大丈夫かなと心配でしたが、いざボートに乗り込んで自分達の順番がきて、空高く舞い上がってみると、最高の気分、景色で興奮しました。
Absolutely give it a try.
絶対に挑戦して下さい。
I loved this snorkeling adventure! The live music was really entertaining, and the lunch was yummy. I really liked that the staff who did the outfitting for your snorkel gear was attentive and caring and wanted to make sure you had a good experience! I liked that there was a small tow rope strung between the main vessel and the floating "lounge" area to help guide you through the water. The variety of activities was good too, with the banana rafts and the stand-up paddleboards. There was an activity here for every level of adventurer. I kind of wished the boat was a bit smaller and more intimate but I got used to the size quickly and really ended up enjoying the experience!
Just go on this trip! It was pretty fun and amazing.

We participated as a family. We took a boat with about eight guests and went out to sea, where we were able to go parasailing in groups of two or three. The staff on the boat kept the atmosphere lively, and throughout the activity, the passengers enjoyed a friendly and cheerful time together.
家族で参加しました。
ボートに8人ほどのお客を乗せ沖に出て
2-3名づつパラセイリングさせてもらいました。
ボートの上ではスタッフさんが盛り上げてくれますし、アクティビティを通して、乗客も和気あいあいとしました。
- It's recommended to take motion sickness medication as the boat can be rocky.
- It's better to have cash ready for tips.
- There is a high possibility that your lower body will get wet.
- Be cautiou
・ボートは揺れるので酔い止め服用がおすすめ
・チップ用に現金用意がベター
・下半身は水に濡れる可能性大
・帽子やサングラスはボートでの強風に注意
Since it was a Japanese instructor, I felt安心して参加できました. I participated with the desire to see a honu, so I was worried about the weather on the day of the event. Although the sea was slightly murky, I was able to meet the honu I had longed to see, and the instructor took many photos for me, creating wonderful memories.
日本人のインストラクターの方だったので、安心して参加できました。ホヌに逢いたい願望で参加したので、当日は天候が怪しくて心配もありました。実際に海は若干の濁りがありましたが念願のホヌにも逢え、インストラクターの方にたくさん写真を撮っていただきいい思い出になりました。
The initial date I had booked was canceled due to weather conditions. It wasn't raining, but it was probably quite windy. I received an email about the cancellation around 8:00 AM on the day of the event, so I recommend checking your email before heading to the location. If the event is canceled, you can choose to either get a refund or reschedule. I opted to reschedule. The process is completed on the Veltra website. Since bad weather is unavoidable, if you really want to go parasailing, it's a good idea to incorporate it into the earlier part of your Hawaii trip so that you can reschedule if it gets canceled. I appreciate that safety is prioritized.
It was my first time parasailing, and I was a bit scared, so I chose the 120m option. Even at 120m, it was high enough, and the view was beautiful, which made me very satisfied. The boat was small and quite fast, so it's better to take motion sickness medication beforehand. I filmed a video of my parasailing experience with a GoPro, and I'm glad I got some very immersive footage.
At one point, I was splashed into the sea and got a little wet, so it's better to wear a swimsuit. If you're bringing a camera or smartphone, I think it's a good idea to put it in a waterproof case just in case. Since I participated in January, it was a bit chilly, and wearing a rash guard was just right.
最初に申し込んでいた日は天候のためキャンセルになりました。雨は降っていませんでしたが、おそらく風が強かったのでしょう。当日の朝8:00頃メールでキャンセルの連絡があったため、当日現地に向かう前にメールチェックするのがおすすめです。キャンセルになった場合、払い戻すか、日程変更するか選べます。私は日程変更しました。手続きはベルトラのサイトで完結します。天候不良はどうしようもないので、パラセーリングを絶対したい場合はハワイ旅行の最初の方の日程に組み込んでおいて、キャンセルになっても日程変更できるようにしておくのも手です。安全第一で実施していただきありがたいです。
初パラセーリングで怖さもあり、高さ120mを選びました。120mでも十分高く、景色もとても綺麗で満足しました。船は小型でかなりスピードが出ます。酔い止めは飲んでいった方がいいです。
GoProでパラセーリング中の動画を撮影しましたが、とても臨場感がある動画が撮れて良かったです。
途中、海にドボンされ、少し濡れるので水着で行った方がいいです。カメラやスマホを持ち込む際は念の為防水ケースなどに入れると良いと思います。
1月の参加ということもあり、少し肌寒く、ラッシュガードを羽織っての参加でちょうど良かったです。
I was able to see the honu (sea turtle). It's recommended to go when you have enough stamina, as you'll be snorkeling for a long time. I felt cold and got a bit seasick along the way, but thanks to the instructors, I was able to participate in a fun atmosphere.
ホヌが見れました。長い時間シュノーケリングをする為、体力がある時がお勧めです。途中で寒く感じ波酔いをしましたが、先生方のお陰で楽しい雰囲気で参加出来ました。
Great service,on time pickup. Navigated transportation well. The guides shined with extras such as wetsuits for hire and even prescription mask. In the water they knew where to find the fish and the easiest routes through the reef. Best snorkel tour for beginners. Lots of fun even for experienced snorkelers.
Thanks guys! Glad you enjoyed. Hope we see you again. Dan and Chieko
Congratulations to the entire company team and the instructors!
We booked the Kaneohe sandbar standard package as we had our 2 year old kid travelling with us. We got to do a bit of everything swim, snorkel, kayak and paddleboard. My son enjoyed his first kayak ride. There is a good deck once u reach the sandbar where we can relax in between activities. The crew were friendly and hospitalable. We enjoyed the music onboard. I would definitely recommend the Kaneohe sandbar experience to anyone visiting Oahu !!!!
Please check the weather and tide timings before you book.

The weather was a bit bad, with many clouds, but Diamond Head looked very beautiful. Also, it was a great experience to see the rainbow at such a beautiful moment! The explanations and reception were provided in Japanese and simple English.
少し天気が悪く、雲は多かったですがダイヤモンドヘッドがとても綺麗に見えました。
また、虹がとても綺麗に見えるタイミングで良い経験になりました!
説明や受付は日本語と簡単な英語で対応いただけました。
I was scared of seasickness, so I took some anti-nausea medication. I think it's reassuring for those who are anxious to take it.
船酔いが怖かったので酔い止め服用しました。不安な方は飲んだ方が安心だと思います。
The tour was very good.
It was disappointing that the pickup time was delayed. If there is going to be a delay, I would like to be informed by email. The phone line was not reachable. I hope this can be improved.
ツアーはとても良かったです
お迎えの時間が遅れていた事は残念です
遅れるならメールにて送って欲しいです
電話は繋がらないし
改善して欲しいです
Thank you very much for participating in the tour. We apologize for the delay caused by traffic conditions on the day of the event. We will share your feedback internally. Thank you. From all the KBOS staff.
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。当日は交通状況によりお待たせしてしまった様で申し訳ございませんでした。頂いたご意見は社内で共有させて頂きます。ありがとうございました。 KBOS スタッフ一同
We had a great experience parasailing. It was definitely a highlight of our trip. The crew was friendly, experienced, and we felt safe and well taken care of. Our group consisted of 2 adults and 4 teens (15 & 17 y/o). We were combined with one other family of 5.
We opted for the 800 ft line since it was our first time. But in hindsight, go for the longest line.
The view from Waikiki to Diamond Head was refreshing! I took off into the sky without even having time to feel scared, so I had no fear at all. The location was easy to find, so I would love to experience it again!
ワイキキからダイヤモンドヘッドまで一望できて気分も爽快でした!怖いとか言う間もなく空へ飛び立ったので、恐怖心は全然なかったです。場所もわかりやすかったので、また体験したいです!
It was fun that the captain and crew talked to us. We searched for whales since they said we could see them, but we couldn't find any that day. The scenery was really beautiful and enjoyable! I have a fear of heights, so I was nervous and held onto the reins the whole time, which made my arms sore when I got off, but it became a great memory. I tend to get motion sickness, so I took some medicine, but I was totally fine.
キャプテンとクルーの人達が話しかけてくれたりして楽しかったです。
クジラ見えるよーって探したけれど、この日は見つけられなかった。
景色が本当に綺麗で楽しかった!!
高所恐怖症でドキドキで、ずっと手綱握ってたから降りたら二の腕パンパンだったけれど、いい思い出になりました。
乗物酔い激しい方なので酔い止め飲んだけれど全然平気でした。
Super fun tour with easy to talk to guide. So many fish to see. Our son even saw an octopus.
You guys did great! Hope we see you again
Dan
This is my second time parasailing. The thrill of rising while feeling the Hawaiian breeze is exhilarating. The view of Waikiki from above is amazing. The timing was just perfect too!
パラセーリングは2回目です。
ハワイの風を感じながら上がっていくドキドキ。上から見るワイキキの景色は最高です。時間的にもほどよくて最高でした!
There is free parking available where you board the ship. There are also restrooms, so make sure to use them before boarding.
船に乗るところは無料駐車場あります。トイレもあるので乗船前には済ませましょう。
I experienced some seasickness, so medication was essential!
However, it was amazing.
It was a short time, so I didn't get tired and had a great time.
Thank you!
船酔いもあったので、薬必須!
しかし、最高でした。
短い時間だったので、疲れず楽しかったです。
ありがとうございます。
We did this just 8 months ago and we brought the rest of the family with us this time. There was 8 of us and everyone participated in all of the activities and it didn't matter that the weather wasn't perfect, the aloha shared by this team is what made this experience wonderful. Thank you for making our Obana's day!
Nice to have coffee as an option on cooler days
Mahalo for coming back & your review! - Team KBOS
It was my first time parasailing and my first time in Hawaii, so I was a bit anxious, but it was an incredibly satisfying activity!! The waiver for accidents was also provided in Japanese, so I could sign it with peace of mind. I had a great view of Waikiki, and I could see Diamond Head as well. Since I enjoyed the wonderful scenery, I highly recommend it to anyone who is considering trying it!
初めてのパラセーリングかつ初めてのハワイで不安でしたが、とても大満足のアクティビティでした!!事故の際の誓約書等も日本語で作成されており安心してサインできました。ワイキキが一望できて、ダイヤモンドヘッドも見えました。素晴らしい景色を楽しめたので、迷っている方は是非トライしてみてほしいです。
Since you can't use your phone while parasailing, I recommend paying $40 to purchase the photos. They let you thoroughly check the pictures, and the service was great as they also transferred the data
パラセーリング中携帯は勿論触れないので、40ドル払って写真購入がおすすめです。写真をしっかり確認させてくれますし、スマホへのデータ転送+SDカードもくれてサービスが手厚かったです。
We had an excellent adventure on our morning trip. The crew was great and took care of every possible detail to ensure all the guests had a good experience.
The live music was an added bonus that we truly enjoyed! Highly recommend this as a great way to spend a few hours on the water.
a long sleeve water shirt will be helpful for morning trips
Mahalo for your review! We are very happy that you enjoyed our tour. Hope you will join us again. - Team KBOS
The view from the sea was great! The staff's explanations in English were easy to understand, and they had a good vibe. On the way back to the beach, we spotted dolphins, and even though they said we had just 5 minutes left, they took the time to let us enjoy watching the dolphins until they disappeared. I was very satisfied. It was a lot of fun!
海から見る景色、良かったです♪
スタッフの方の説明(英語)も分かりやすかったですし、ノリも良かったです。
ビーチに戻る途中に、イルカを発見したのですが…あと5分で戻るよぉ〜と言いつつも、イルカが見えなくなるまで時間を使ってくれ、大変満足しました。
楽しかったです。
You can buy drinks on the boat, but only with cash! Let's join in wearing shorts and flip-flops!
船でドリンクが買えるのですが、現金のみです!短パンビーサンで参加しましょう♪
マハロ(ありがとう)あなたの体験を共有してくれて、私たちはあなたが私たちのイルカの友達に「出会った」ことをとても嬉しく思います!
Mahalo for sharing your experience, and we are so happy you "met" our dolphin friends!
we got luck that the tour went out, and lucky we felt! great catch and a memorable christmas morning thanks to the crew
I had an experience that matched the description! The staff could speak a little Japanese, so communication was possible.
内容通りの体験ができました!スタッフの方々も日本語が少しできたので、コミュニケーションもとれました。
I experienced jet skiing and parasailing. It was great that the height for parasailing was updated. It was very high and gave me a sense of exhilaration that I don't usually get to experience. Jet skiing was very authentic; at first, it was difficult to maintain balance, but I gradually got used to it, and it was so much fun that the time flew by.
ジェットスキーとパラセーリングを体験しました。パラセーリングの高さはアップデートして良かったです。とても高くて普段味わえない高揚感でした。ジェットスキーはとても本格的で最初バランスを取るのが難しかったですが、次第に慣れてきて、楽しすぎてあっというまの時間でした。
The staff are very kind, and there are no problems at all for those who are anxious about their English.
スタッフの方はとても親切で英語が不安な方でも全く問題ないです。
The 150m course was amazing. It felt about twice as long as I imagined, and the operator's skills were excellent, creating a fantastic feeling of weightlessness. 😀
150mコースが最高でした。
想像の2倍くらいの長さに感じて、オペレーターの操作も上手くて 浮遊感が最高だった😀
Even if you have a reservation, it's better to arrive early. On the day, reservations may be pushed back to accommodate walk-in customers.
予約してても早めに行った方が良いです。
