All Reviews for Snorkeling Cruises & Tours

This was our 1st time to the big island and this was our 1st time snorkeling. The captain and the crew were all exceptional and pretty funny at times. The vessel was clean and the cruise was smooth. We had 2 areas we stopped to snorkel and get a little history lesson. Breakfast and lunch was very tasty and well timed. Thank you for making this such a wonderful experience for my family.

We have been on a couple different Snorkeling trips, and I have to say that going on the Molokini Snorkeling trip with the Trilogy Team is the Very Best. Why??? The Dolphins that join the boat on the way to and from Molokini. The location that the Trilogy docks so you can see so many species of fish, eels and coral. The Fantastic Team and Captains, and the delicious food, drinks and ice cream sundae!!! It is well worth the cost. Try it once and you will understand how Awesome this trip is.

If you love snorkeling, a fun boat ride, delicious food - then you have to try this trip at least once so that you can experience the Very Best Trip to Lanai!!! Do it!! You will not regret it.

We had an amazing time. Aiden, Zack ,Caleb and the captain Justine were all so amazing. They made our experience so welcoming and comfortable. MUST TRY

The shuttle bus was comfortable. Departing at 5:30 AM was a bit dreary, but it wasn't cold in the morning, and you can make good use of your time afterward, so I recommend it. Our guide, Ken, was reliable and very pleasant, and I appreciated his help a lot. There are no restrooms on the boat, but there are public toilets at the boarding area. We were able to see both dolphins and whales, but it can be tough for those who can't swim. It was harder than I imagined, but that also made it rewarding.

送迎のバスも快適でした。早朝5：30出発は、憂鬱でしたが、朝も寒くないし，そのあと時間が有効に使えるからおすすめです。
ガイドのケンさんは、頼りになるし、とても感じの良い方で大変お世話になりました。
トイレが無いですが、ボートに乗る場所に公衆トイレがあります。
イルカも鯨も見られましたが、泳げない方は大変です。想像以上にハードでした。そのぶん，達成感があります。

The explanations in Japanese were very helpful for those in Japan. Despite the unfortunate cloudy and cold weather, I went snorkeling and had a great time. I think I could have enjoyed it even more if the weather had been sunnier. Overall, I was satisfied with the tour thanks to the consistently kind service.

日本の方向けに日本語の説明もあってとても親切でした。
あいにくの曇りで寒かった点を除けば、シュノーケリングをしましたが、楽しかったです。もっと晴れたタイミングだったらもっと楽しめたと思います。終始、親切な対応をしていただけて満足なツアーでした。

This was the one excursion that I was looking forward to during my visit. It did not disappoint! Sure the weather could have been better, but the sandbar was just beautiful. The entire staff team was amazing , welcoming, fun, attentive and entertaining. I would highly recommend this sandbar tour and especially this crew.

I think you can swim from the morning in the summer, but the mornings in March are still cold and tough. However, once the sun comes out, it's not that cold, so it might be better to swim in the afternoon during winter. Even in the shallow areas, you can see a lot of fish and swim close enough to them. I also got to see a seal, which was fun. It was a shame that one of the snorkels was broken.

夏場は朝から泳げると思うけど3月の朝はまだ寒くて辛かった。でも日が出てからはさほど寒くないので冬場は午後がいいかも。浅瀬でも沢山の魚をみれて手が届きそうな距離で一緒に泳げます。アザラシにも会えて楽しかったです。シュノーケルが一つ壊れてて残念でした。

Meeting at the hotel, you can board directly from the beach behind the hotel, and you'll be back in the heart of Waikiki before noon, making it very time-efficient. The snorkeling time is about an hour in the area with sea turtles, and afterwards, we went sailing near Diamond Head. We also saw dolphins. I think this tour is just right for those who feel that spending a whole day in the ocean is a bit much.

ホテル集合～そのままホテル裏のビーチから乗船、お昼前にはワイキキ中心部に戻れるのでとても時間の効率がよいです。シュノーケルの時間はウミガメのいるエリアで賞味1時間ちょっと、その後はダイアモンドヘッドの前あたりまでセーリング。イルカも見れました。丸1日使ってガッツリ海に入るのはちょっと・・・という感じの方には丁度良いツアーだと思います。

I was really grateful that they provided transportation not only from Waikiki but also from the Ko Olina hotels. 🙏 The instructor was always taking photos, and at the end, we could purchase them for $70. 📸 There was one instructor who spoke Japanese, and they explained everything in Japanese, which made me feel very at ease. 🇯🇵 I was able to see the dolphins up close, and the thrilling water slide was a lot of fun! 🐬 I definitely want to visit again!

ワイキキだけでなく、コオリナのホテルでも送迎していただけた点がとても助かりました🙏常にインストラクターさんが写真を撮ってくださっていて、最後に70ドルで購入が可能でした📸日本語が話せるインストラクターさんが1人いらっしゃって、常に日本語で説明してくださったのでとても安心でした🇯🇵イルカもとても近くで見られて、スリル満点のウォータースライダーもとても楽しかったです🐬また訪れたいと思います！

The early morning bus departed in the dim light, and Sean was kind enough to stop by Starbucks. I had heard there were no restrooms on the boat, so it was great that we could use a public restroom before departure. The boat was beautiful!! Perhaps because everyone took motion sickness medication, none of us felt sick at all. But that might also be because the tour was packed with so many activities that it left us completely exhausted. Thanks to the cool, beautiful-voiced captain and Ken from Japan's attentive support, we dived wildly, swam, laughed, and breathed heavily—it was an incredibly fulfilling tour. Amazing!

朝早いバスは薄暗い中出発，ショーンさんはお優しく、スタバにも立ち寄って下さった。
船にはトイレがないと聞いていたが、出航前に公衆トイレが使えてよかった。
船は綺麗！！酔い止めは全員飲んでおいたせいか全く酔わなかった。でもそれは　へとへとになるくらい盛りだくさんで充実したからかもしれない。かっこいい美声の船長、日本のケンさんのきめ細かいフォロー，などのおかげでワイルドに潜り、泳ぎ，笑い、ゼイゼイ息して超充実のツアーでした。最高！

Today was the best day ever. We found a pod of dolphins and jumped into the sea! It was so thrilling and exciting. When we dove in, the dolphins were right in front of us. It was moving!

We also got to see the humpback whales that come to Hawaii to give birth during this season. I've heard that seeing whales brings good luck, and that made us even happier.

The actor and captain, along with our Japanese guide Ken, was knowledgeable and a fun entertainer. I definitely want to participate again. Thank you for everything.

It was early in the morning, but our bus driver Sean was wonderful; he even stopped by Starbucks for us, showing great consideration. I believe this will be a memorable experience for sure.

今日は最高の一日でした。
イルカの群れを見つけては海にジャンプイン！なんてスリリングでドキドキ。潜るとイルカたちが目の前に。感動！
この時期に出産のためにハワイに来るザトウクジラ🐋にも会えました。クジラをみると幸運になるらしいと聞いてますます上機嫌な私たち。
俳優兼船長さん、日本人の担当Kenさんも知識豊富で楽しいエンターテイナーでした。またぜひ参加したいです。お世話になりました。
朝早く大変ですがバスのドライバーのショーンさんスタバに立ち寄ってくださったり、気遣いが素晴らしかったです。必ず良い思い出になる体験だと思います。

10/10 recommend. Great staff. Friendly. Great music.

I was moved by how many times the manta rays passed by nearby. It's close to the pier, and since you just float, even children can easily participate.

何回も近くをマンタが通ってくれ感動しました。桟橋から近いし、浮いてるだけなので子供でも簡単に参加できます。

On the day, it was cloudy and it rained on the way back. At the sandbar, the captain brought boards and inflatable canoes, allowing us to play as much as we wanted, creating a very private atmosphere. There were also plenty of snacks and drinks prepared for us. When we got tired of playing, the captain took us on a cruise to see rays and sea turtles, providing excellent service. In the rain, the other groups around us looked cold, wrapped in beach towels, but the captain lent us sweatshirts, so we could comfortably play in the water without worry. On the way back, they also lent us umbrellas and raincoats. Since it was such a great experience, I hope for sunny weather next time and will definitely try again.

当日は曇りで帰りに雨が降りました。サンドバーでは、キャプテンがボードや浮き輪カヌーなどを持ってきてくれて、遊び放題でプライベート感満載でした。スナックやドリンクもたくさん準備してくれています。遊び飽きたらクルージングでエイやウミガメを見に連れて行ってくれたりと、サービス満点でした。雨の中、周りの集団の方達はバスタオルにくるまり寒そうでしたが、キャプテンがスエットを貸してくれるので終始水の中でも平気で思う存分遊べました。帰りは傘とレインコートも貸してくれました。せっかくなので、次回晴れることを祈ってまたチャレンジします。

It was easy to get to the boat departing from Waikiki Beach, which is very close to the hotel. The boat was larger than I expected, and even though it was raining that day, there was a covered area inside the boat, which was a relief. Due to the rain, we couldn't see any sea turtles, but we did see plenty of beautiful fish. Although it was raining that day, the waves weren't particularly strong, and I usually don't get motion sickness, but I felt a bit seasick, so I think it's a good idea to take some motion sickness medication beforehand.

ホテルからすぐ近くのワイキキビーチから出航するので移動が楽でした。
船は予想より大きくて当日は雨でしたが屋根付き船内もあり、助かりました。
雨のせいか、ウミガメは見ることができませんでしたが綺麗な魚はたくさん見れました。
当日は雨は降っていたものの特段、波の強い日ではなく普段は乗り物酔いもしない私ですが、少し船酔いしましたので酔い止めは飲んでおいたほうが良いかと思います。

The tour that was initially canceled due to bad weather turned out to be amazing. It was raining heavily in the morning, but by the time we arrived, the rain had stopped and it even started to clear up.

We encountered a group of over 100 dolphins! They were so cute, jumping around, and we were able to see them up close even when we entered the water. We got to see them swimming right below us and passing by us multiple times!

I was worried about how it would turn out, but I had such a great time seeing them. I definitely want to participate again! 🫶✨

悪天候で1度キャンセルにからの迎えたツアー
朝も雨が降っていて土砂降りになったけれど着いたら雨が止み、むしろ晴れてきて
100頭以上の群れに遭遇!!
飛び跳ねたりと可愛くて
海に入っても真近てみることができて
群れでちゃんと見ることが!!
真下を通ったり横を通ったりと沢山見ることができた!!

どうなるか不安だったけど見れてすごく楽しめて良かった🫶✨
また参加したい!!

I opted for the pickup service, but while waiting at the pickup location, the bus did not arrive, so I called the contact number. Unfortunately, the person on the phone only spoke English, which made it difficult for me to understand the situation, and I ended up feeling anxious because I couldn't get the information I needed.

However, once I was there, the staff members were very entertaining, and it turned out to be a memorable tour. I was able to enjoy activities like snorkeling and canoeing multiple times for free, which made the time fly by. I'm really glad I participated.

送迎付きにしましたが、ピックアップ場所で待っていてもバスが来なかったため問い合わせ先に電話を掛けました。しかし、電話口が英語での対応だったため内容を理解できず、結局問い合わせができず不安になったのは残念な点でした。
現地では、スタッフの方々が楽しませてくださり、とても思い出に残るツアーになりました。シュノーケリングやカヌーなど無料で何度もおこなうことができたため、しっかり楽しめて時間があっという間でした。参加してよかったです。

It was a bit cold in February. Unfortunately, I had to give up snorkeling because it was too cold. The tour guide was a very cheerful Japanese person, which made me feel at ease participating. I was satisfied enjoying the beautiful sea from the boat.

2月で少し寒かったです。残念ながらシュノーケリングは寒すぎて断念しました。ツアーの方はとても明るい日本人の方で、安心して参加でできました。美しい海を船から楽しめ満足しています。

I had to share the experience to my sister and her family that my kids and I had the first time we went here back in June 2025. For my nephew's bday March of 2026, I suggested to go to the Kaneohe sand bar again. The consistency of their best service is just really incredible. From the warm welcome of the staff, the island vibe voices of the singers, the lifeguards who constantly keeping an eye to the kids, the captain who made the banana boat super exciting and safe. The place, the view and the people gave us all an unforgettable experience. Looking forward for the next visit, hopefully with the rest of our extended family. Mahalo/ Salamat!

We moved to a spot where we could see manta rays while watching the sunset. Since a staff member who spoke Japanese accompanied us, I felt at ease. While floating around during snorkeling, a manta ray suddenly appeared right below me. It got so close that I could almost reach out and touch it, and I was extremely excited!

夕日を見ながらマンタの見えるポイントへ移動。日本語の話せるスタッフが同行してくれたので、安心。シュノーケリングでぷかぷか浮いていると突然真下にマンタが出現。手を伸ばせば触れそうな距離まで接近で大興奮でした。

I from the Mid-West so seeing a dolphin was never on my bingo card so I thought! This establishment was great and so helpful. The pictures were amazing and I will never forget the experience!

This time, I participated in a dolphin watching and snorkeling tour in Hawaii for the first time. We were incredibly lucky to encounter a pod of spinner dolphins just 15 minutes after departure. There were quite a few dolphins swimming alongside and in front of the boat for a long time, and we even got to see them jumping. During snorkeling, I was able to swim very close to a green sea turtle.

On the way back, we were fortunate enough to see seven humpback whales at the same time, making it a miraculous day, and I had a truly satisfying experience. We were lucky to encounter the dolphins so quickly, but for those who don't get to see them, the boat has to circle around, and after snorkeling, it can get chilly, so I felt that motion sickness medication and cold weather precautions are necessary.

Additionally, there was a staff member who spoke Japanese, which allowed us to enjoy the experience even though we couldn't speak English.

今回、初めてのハワイでイルカウォッチングとシュノーケリングのツアーに参加させていただきました。
運がすごくよかったのが、出航15分でハシナガイルカの群に遭遇でき、かなりの数のイルカがとても長い時間、船の前や横を泳いでいて、ジャンプすら姿も見れ、シュノーケリングの際もアオウミガメのすぐ近くで泳げました。
帰りにザトウクジラも同時に7頭見れるという奇跡的な日だったので、すごく満足のできる体験をすることができました。
自分たちは、イルカもすぐ遭遇できたのでラッキーだったのですが、なかなかイルカに遭遇できないと船で色々回らなければいけず、シュノーケリングのあとは、身体も冷えるので酔い止めと寒さ対策は必要だと感じました。
また、スタッフの方の日本語ができる方がいたので、英語ができない自分たちでも楽しむことができました。

It was a very cloudy day, but we were lucky that the sun only shone when we arrived at the sandbar! My mother, in her 70s, didn't have a swimsuit, but she waded into the water up to her thighs wearing her shorts and a sun-protective hoodie, excitedly exclaiming, "I haven't been in the ocean in decades!" (laughs) After returning to the boat, she changed in the restroom to avoid getting cold.

It was a bit disappointing that the tour didn't include stand-up paddleboarding (SUP), as my mother had expressed interest in trying it, but it was just the right tour for us since we weren't planning to get in the water. The staff, who were fluent in Japanese, were attentive throughout and shared various stories about Hawaii, which was also very enjoyable. They have a wealth of experience related to the tour and are properly qualified.

Next time, I plan to try snorkeling and SUP at the emerald green sandbar with this company on a sunny day!

どん曇りの一日でしたが、サンドバーに着いた時にだけ日差しが差し込み、とてもラッキーでした！
70代の母も、水着が無いなりに手持ちのショートパンツと日除けパーカーで股まで着水し、「数十年ぶりに海に入ったわ！」と興奮しておりました(笑)船に戻った後は、体を冷やさないようトイレで着替えておりました。

母が「ＳＵＰしてみたい」と言っていたので含まれていなかった点は残念でしたが、海に浸かるつもりの無かった私たちにはちょうど良いツアーでした。
日本語が堪能なスタッフさんは終始皆さんに気配りくださり、ハワイの色々なお話を聞けたことも大変良かったです＾＾ツアーに関する経験も豊富で、資格もきっちり備えていらっしゃるそうです。

次はまたこちらの会社さんで、晴れたエメラルドグリーンのサンドバーで、シュノーケルとＳＵＰに挑戦してみようと思います！

My wife and I, along with our daughter and her husband and our grandchild, participated in the event. We checked the tide schedule in advance and joined, but it wasn't as low tide as we expected. As a result, our grandchild stayed with us on the boat. However, our daughter and her husband enjoyed paddleboarding and kayaking. Additionally, during snorkeling, we were able to admire various fish along with the coral reefs. We are grateful for the kind assistance from the staff.

私たち老夫婦は、娘夫婦と孫と参加しました。事前に干潮の日時を調べて参加しましたが、思ったほどの干潮ではありませんでした。よって、孫は船内に私たちと待機でした。しかし、娘夫婦はSUPやカヤックを堪能しました。また、スノーケリングでは、サンゴ礁とともに様々な魚を鑑賞することができました。スタッフの皆さんの優しいご対応に感謝します。

We loved everything about the this tour. We went in the morning, and the water was almost waist deep but it didn’t bother us. We got to see many fish by snorkeling, did standup paddle boarding, kayaking, and listened to the amazing musicians perform onboard. The crew were very kind, helpful and entertaining. They made it extra fun. My husband and I had a great time and would gladly do it again, only with KBOS. Highly recommend going with this crew.

My husband and I had a wonderful first trip with this company and first excursion together. All the staff were very friendly and accommodating. There was live music and the atmosphere was great. We would definitely recommend this for anyone else looking for something fun to do while you’re staying in Hawaii.

This was the most fun activity we did our entire week that we visited Maui! We loved seeing the whales, and had the best time snorkeling & seeing all of the fish & turtles! The catamaran was clean & organized well, the staff & captain were amazing! They were invaluable in finding whales & making sure everyone was safe etc! The food & drinks were excellent!! It was very warm, family oriented & welcoming!

Mind blowing tour! Incredible crew: friendly, professional, knowledgeable, well prepared. The experience of a lifetime. Huge manta rays, swimming all around us! Gentle giants. Feeding on the plankton attracted to the lights. I know the crew told us that experiences may vary in numbers of mantas seen, but we were extremely lucky and saw close up mantas almost the entire time!

Our boat captain was terrific, we were able to see two species of whales, many dolphins 3 turtles from the boat and two more snorkeling. Not sure how it could have been any better. Best thing we did in Hawaii
