I had previously experienced parasailing in Guam, but this time my middle school grandson wanted to try it, so we did a 120-meter experience. Seeing my grandson's happy face made me feel that it was worth it.
以前グアムでパラセイリングの経験はありましたが、今回中学生の孫が飛んでみたいと言うので120メートルの体験をしました。
孫の楽しそうな顔を見て、やってよかったなと思いました。

We love the setting of the boat lounge. All the staffs are very friendly and helpful. We love the donuts and drinks! The singers while sailing are also good. We also love how they guide us on how to do the snorkeling and how they are protecting us while doing our sandbar activities. Special thanks to Toby for checking on us while doing the paddle board. We will definitely go back with them on our next Oahu trip! Highly recommended! Don't go somewhere else if you want the best Sandbar experience!!!

The weather was slightly cloudy, but my family of five was able to enjoy themselves.
We took theBUS from Honolulu to the nearest stop (about a 30-minute ride), which was more affordable than taking a taxi.
Since our experience started at 12:30, we arrived a bit early. We had lunch at a coffee house located in the adjacent Kai Shopping Center before the experience.
We tried parasailing, jet skiing, and banana boating. We enjoyed all of them. Thank you very much.
薄曇りの天気でしたが、家族5人は口々に楽しむことが出来たと話してました。

We had a great time with fantastic performances and snacks even before arriving at the sandbar. Even after the boat stopped, their wonderful performance continued. Thanks to that, returning to the boat after activities wasn't boring. Moreover, kids can see a lot of fish at a shallow depth for snorkeling. I highly recommend this tour! The staff are extremely kind and friendly.

Due to high waves on the day, we were advised to switch to surfing, and although I was a bit anxious, I went ahead with the change. The staff, who spoke a little Japanese, kindly taught us, and we were able to get on the board quickly. My wife was with me, and she also got the hang of it right away, so we both had a lot of fun.
The one-hour session flew by, but it was just the right amount of physical activity. I was sore the next day. (laughs)
We borrowed the designated rash guards from the shop. We packed our belongings into one backpack for the two of us. They provided towels for us.
当日波が高かったため、サーフィンへの変更を薦めてもらい、不安がありながらサーフィンに変更しました。
日本語が少し話せるスタッフが優しく教えてくださり、すぐボードに乗れるようになりました。奥さんも一緒でしたがすぐ乗れるようになり、2人でとても楽しめました。
1時間の時間もあっという間でしたが、体力的に丁度良かったです。次の日は筋肉痛でした。笑
ラッシュガードは店の指定のものを借りて着用します。私たちは2人でナップサック1つに荷物をまとめました。タオルは貸し出ししてくれます。
Dear Ryu,
Thank you very much for the five-star rating. I'm glad to hear that you both enjoyed your time, even while changing to surfing. Next time, it would be great for you to experience a stand-up paddle lesson! I appreciate your explanation regarding the rush guard and your luggage. Unfortunately, we do not provide towels for rent. The towels we offer are available only for guests staying at the Royal Hawaiian Hotel, so customers not staying there are kindly requested to bring their own towels. We look forward to your next visit!

A couple over 60 participated together. Since they are active and regularly exercise, they weren't worried about their physical stamina, but it was their first experience with kayaking, so they chose a two-hour guided tandem ride. Paddling through the blue sea while getting splashed by the waves was a refreshing escape from daily life, and it felt truly wonderful. If there's a next time, they would like to try the five-hour course as well. However, they only brought $30 in cash and were dismayed to realize that tips were necessary. They apologized to the guide and left what they could, but they regret not being able to give more.
還暦を過ぎた夫婦 2人で参加 普段から体を動かしているので 体力的には心配ありませんでしたが カヤックは初体験なので 2時間のガイド付き 2人乗りを選びました。
波を被りながら漕ぎ進む青い海は 日常とかけ離れていて 本当に気持ち良かったです。次回があるなら 5時間コースも体験したいです。
ただ、現金を$30しか持って行かなくて

It was cloudy with a chance of rain, and we were told it might be canceled, but the rain stopped and we were able to experience it. (The people from the earlier time had their experience canceled due to the rain.)
It was so much fun while flying!!
Whether or not you choose the photo option affects the duration of your stay in the air. Since we said we didn't need photos, we were brought down faster than those who were taking pictures. Also, some people who got motion sickness had their experience canceled, so I think it's better to take motion sickness medication beforehand.
曇りのち雨で、もしかしたらキャンセルかもと言われていましたが、雨が止み体験可能となりました。(前の時間の人たちは雨のため、キャンセルとなっていました。)
飛んでいる時はとっても楽しい!!
写真のオプションをつけるか、つけないかで空中の滞在時間が変わります。写真はいらないと言った私たちは、写真を撮る人たちよりも早く下ろされました。また、船酔いしてしまった人もキャンセルとなっていたので、しっかり酔い止めを飲んだ方がいいと思います。

We participated because the kids wanted to go parasailing. It was higher than we imagined, and the parents were scared, but the kids said it was the best part of the trip. The meeting point with the voucher was a bit unclear, but we received a tour reservation email the day before, so we were able to gather without any confusion. It was also a plus that it was very close to the hotel.
子供達がパラセイリングがしたいということで参加しました。想像以上の高さで、親は怖かったけど、子供達はこの旅で1番よかったらしいです。バウチャーだと待ち合わせ場所がいまいちでしたが、前日にツアー予約メールがくるので、迷わず集合できました。ホテルからすぐだったのも良いポイントでした。

My group consisted of friends/couples and one 8 month old baby. We booked this excursion without any of us having done this before and we all said we’d go back and do it again if we could! First off, the booking information and communication emails and texts were very helpful for day of event reminders. The instructions in the emails and texts were pretty detailed and easy to follow along. Once we arrive at the harbor, check in process and safety guide getting on to the boat was seamless and even allowed our large party that all booked separately to group up and grab a table together. Lunch was promptly served(we took the afternoon tour) and we took off for the sandbar. We booked the all-inclusive activities and I definitely recommend it for those who are more active/thrill seekers! There are safety guidelines that the crew goes over with you in detail to ensure safety for all passengers and I really appreciated that since our group had some hesitant or nervous to do the water activities. While we did have an 8month old infant with us and brought her own life vest, the crew came by to offer all infants and children life vests during their safety checks. We did all the inclusive activities offered and was still able to relax in the sandbar water and climb up to the floating lounge to hang out before we headed back to the harbor. The live music was phenomenal(I’m biased as a hula dancer maybe) and my group and I even got up to perform a hula for the other passengers and crew. The crew was friendly, informative, and playful which are all things that I hope for on fun excursions!

We participated as a family of five with children aged 6 and 7!
As we moved by boat, the color of the sea clearly changed, and the emerald green water was so beautiful that it left us in awe.
This time, the water depth was up to the adults' waists, which made it a perfect opportunity for our first challenges with snorkeling, stand-up paddleboarding, and canoeing! The kids were able to touch the bottom, so we could enjoy ourselves safely until the end!
However, it was a bit cold, and my 6-year-old son, who couldn't touch the bottom, got scared and cried, retreating to the boat right away. I was a bit disappointed because I wanted him to play a little longer...
Next time in the summer, I strongly hope to join when we can see the sandbar in its true form!!
This time, the kids wanted to ride the banana boat and the tube, so we all participated, and they all said it was the best!!
Thank you for ensuring a safe environment with proper supervision!
I'm really glad we participated!
6.7.9歳の子連れ家族5人で参加しました!
船で移動すると明らかに海の色が変わり、エメラルドグリーンの海がとてもキレイで感動しました。
今回は大人の腰上辺りまでの水深だったため、シュノーケリング、サップ、カヌーは初めてのチャレンジするのにちょうど良かったです!子どもたちも足がついたので、安心して最後まで楽しむことができました!
ただ少し寒かったので、6歳の息子は脚もつかないため怖かったのか号泣してすぐ船に撤退してしまいました笑 もう少し遊んで欲しかったので残念、、、
次は夏、是非サンドバーの本来の姿か見れるタイミングで参加したいと強く思いました!!

You can choose the height and splash options! However, when I went, no one asked me anything, so if you have a specific request, you need to say it directly (English only).
They took photos from the boat for $40, and it was worth it! I really enjoyed it! Although I intended to buy them, it was also a great memory to have someone from the next group record a video for me on my phone. We were both asking each other to take turns taking pictures.
Some people brought their phones up, so if you want to take photos up there, it's good to have a waterproof case! I was too scared to bring mine up in case I dropped it.
It was incredibly beautiful and fun! The atmosphere was very nice, and it felt friendly and cheerful.
It would be great to do this on a sunny day, and it might be even better at sunset! 😊
高さや水ポチャも選べる!とありましたが、行っても何も聞かれなかったので、もし絶対これがいい!などリクエストがあれば直接言う必要があります。(英語のみ対応)
船上から写真を撮ってくれて40$でしたが、買って損はなし!良かったです!
買うつもりではいたものの、携帯で次の組の人に、動画を回しておいてもらったのも良い思い出です。結構お互いお願いします〜っと言った感じで撮りあってました
携帯を持って上に上がる方もいましたので、上で写真撮りたい方は、防水ケースがあると良いです!
私は落としたら怖すぎたので、持っては上がりませんでした。

They were very attentive and helped each diver in the group to ensure we had a great time in the water. The lagoon is in the city very close to Waikiki Beach but not crowded. It is a beautiful and quiet place. It felt very safe.
We saw corals and many different fish and we got a few short videos of the experience as part of the tour.
