A mysterious and charming sandbar tour!! I highly recommend it.
On the way to the sandbar, I encountered nearly ten sea turtles and was able to capture great photos. Watching them swim gracefully and pop their heads up was incredibly cute, and I couldn't help but snap a picture.
The sandbar is truly strange and mystical! It feels like, "Why is there land in such a place?" At the edge (where the sandbar meets the sea), there were lots of fish. I took plenty of underwater photos while snorkeling.
The transportation seemed to be handled by someone Chinese (?), and their broken Japanese was quite confusing, making me a bit nervous at first, wondering if I would be taken to some back alley. However, we arrived safely, and once on the boat, the Japanese guide was very nice and reliable. I highly recommend this fun tour!
神秘的・魅力的なサンドバーツアー!!おすすめです。
サンドバーに行くまでにも海がめに10匹近く出会え、写真にも上手に収めることができました。すーいすーいと泳いできて、ちょこんと顔を上げる様子はとってもキュートで、思わず写真にパチリです。
サンドバーは、本当に不思議で神秘的!どうしてこんなところに陸があるの?っていう感じで、そのふち(サンドバーと海の境)には、沢山のおさかなさんがいっぱい。シュノーケルで、水中撮影も一杯しました。送迎は中国人(?)みたいで、片言の日本語が意味不明のかなり怪しい感じで最初はどこか路地裏にでも連れて行かれるんじゃないかとドキドキしましたが、無事につきましたし、船に乗ってからは、日本人のガイドさんもとてもいい方で頼りになります。とても楽しいツアーはおすすめです!

When I first boarded the Zodiac rubber boat, I was a bit shaky and squealed, but gradually I started to feel exhilarated no matter how fast we went or how much we bounced. I knew I couldn't keep my hat on, but even the hood of my rash guard came off.
We jumped into the deep blue sea, far from land. The water was crystal clear up to my feet, but beyond that, it turned a deep navy blue. I wondered just how deep it was. The water felt so soothing that when I relaxed, my body floated effortlessly. It was an incredible sense of liberation.
Snorkeling around the Captain Cook Monument was also fantastic. It felt like being thrown into a tropical fish tank. However, for us Japanese, it might have been a bit too long. Watching families from Russia and the mainland continue to jump in and have fun made me wonder how much longer we would be there. (Sorry if I seem a bit out of sync.)
The captain kept speaking in English, but I couldn't see his face and the wind made it hard to understand. It wasn't a problem, though. I thought it might be fun to understand and respond like a native, but I don't really do that even in Japanese.
Towards the end, we encountered a pod of dolphins. They seemed so free. I was very satisfied.
Despite being careful about sunburn, my thighs and knees (from sitting) ended up getting sunburned bright red. For those who will participate in the future, wearing a long dress that is easy to put on and take off over your swimsuit might be safer. If you're concerned about getting tanned, this activity might not be for you.
ゴムボートのゾディアック号に最初乗った時は少々揺れてもキャーキャーしていましたがだんだんスピードがどんなに出ても飛び跳ねても爽快に感じるようになりました。帽子はかぶっていられないことはわかっていましたがラッシュガードのフードも脱げてしまいます。
陸地から遠く離れ海のど真ん中でただただ碧い海に飛び込みました。足もとまでくっきり透き通って見えるのにその先は濃紺、いったいどれほどの深さなのでしょう。とろりと感じるぐらいの水、脱力すると簡単に体は浮きます。ものすごい解放感。
キャプテンクック記念碑の周りでのスノーケリングもすばらしかった。まるで熱帯魚の水槽の中に放り込まれたようでした。でも我々日本人には冗長すぎる時間かもしれません。いつまでもはしゃいで飛び込んだりし続けるロシアやメインランドからの家族を船の上から見ながらいつまでここにいるのかなと思うようになります。(ノリが悪いのかすみません)
キャプテンがしゃべりつづけてる英語は顔も見ていないし風にも吹かれているしまるで理解できませんね~。それで困ることはありません。理解できてネイティブ並みに反応できたら楽しいかとも思いますが(もともと日本語でもそういう乗り突っ込みはしないですからね)
最後のころにイルカの群れに会えました。自由を感じるイルカたちでした。大満足でしたね。
日焼けに気をつけていたにもかかわらず腿がひざが(座っているから)真っ赤に火傷してしまいました。これから参加される方は水着の上に簡単に脱ぎ着できるなが~いワンピを着て参加すると安全かもしれません。美白を気にする人は参加無理です。

I participated in early August, and on that day, I saw three manta rays up close, almost as if they were going to bump into us. Due to the sunset, we gathered at the office in the shopping center at 6:30 PM and set sail at 7 PM. After checking in at the office in the shopping center and renting wetsuits, we moved to the boat ramp at Keauhou Bay individually. The water was quite cold, but the beautiful and powerful swimming of the manta rays made it worth it. It was a good decision to stay at the Sheraton within walking distance since we disbanded while still wet. We were the only Japanese participants.
8月初めに参加し、その日は3匹のマンタが、ぶつかるかな?・・というくらい近くで見えました。
日没の関係と思いますが、18時半ショッピングセンター内の事務所集合、19時出航でした。
ショッピングセンター内事務所でチェックインをして、ウエットスーツを借りた後は、
各自でケアウホウ湾のボートランプへ移動しました。
水中は、かなり寒かったですが、マンタの泳ぐ美しい姿と迫力は、それ以上のものがありました。
濡れたまま解散なので、ホテルを徒歩圏内のシェラトンにして、正解でした。
日本人参加者は、私たちだけでした。

This time, we participated as a family of four. The snorkeling tour we usually join involves a large boat that takes us to the location, where we enjoy ourselves, but this tour felt like the attractions began as soon as we boarded the boat. The boat was thrilling, and during the hour of bouncing over the waves, I had to hold on tightly or I felt like I might be thrown off. Once we arrived at the Captain Cook Memorial, it was truly a snorkeling paradise. The water was very clear, allowing us to see deep down to the ocean floor, so anyone can expect to see at least 15 different types of tropical fish. It's a tour that the kids can enjoy as well.
今回は家族4人で参加しました。いつも参加するシュノーケリングツアーは大きな船でポイントまで移動して、その場で楽しんでいるんですが、このツアーはボートに乗り込んだ時から既にアトラクションが始まっているという感じです。ボートは迫力満点で、波間をすり抜けて1時間くらい揺られている間ずっとしっかり捕まっていないと振り落とされそうになります。また、キャプテンクック記念碑の所に到着したらまさにシュノーケルバラダイスです。透明度は高く海底の深くまで見渡せますので、誰でも最低15種類くらいの熱帯魚を観ることが出来ます。子供達にも十分楽しめるツアーです。

This was my first time on Kauai Island. The weather was great, and I got to see the Na Pali Coast, just like in Jurassic Park. It was even better than I had heard.
Along the way, when we spotted a large group of dolphins and birds hunting, the boat got closer. The dolphins seemed used to boats and quickly approached us, which made the kids very happy.
There were three staff members, including a female captain, and they were all very kind and helpful. The meeting point is quite far, and there’s no shuttle service from Lihue or Poipu, so it’s tough without a rental car.
I want to go again!

Sailing off Waikiki at an incredible speed was refreshing! It was also great to enjoy snorkeling.
I was told, "The turtles are used to people and won't be scared to come close, but don't touch them," but I never expected they would come so close... There were always 3 to 4 turtles swimming nearby, and when they surfaced for air, they were so close that I could almost touch them—they're really big.
The sailing speed was fast, and it was quite bumpy, but as long as I looked out at the distance and enjoyed the wind, it was fine. I'm glad I chose one that fit my needs among the various catamaran sailing options. There were no other Japanese people, but I didn't feel particularly worried about that.
すごいスピードでワイキキ沖を爽快セイリング!シュノーケリングも楽しめてとても良かったです。
『カメは人になれてて怖がらないで近くにくるけど触っちゃダメ』と言ってたけど、あんなに近づいてくるとは思わなかった・・・。3~4匹のカメが常に近くをまわってたし、息継ぎに浮き上がってくると触れるくらい近くとにかくデカイ。
帆走スピードが速くて、結構揺れたけど、遠くをみるようにして風に当たって楽しく参加したら大丈夫でした。
いろんなカタマランセイリングがある中から、自分のニーズにあったのを選んでよかったです。日本人は誰もいなかったけど特に心配もないし。

I had a great time. I thought it would be rafting, but I stayed completely dry and had a comfortable ride. We set out with three boats, and thanks to the captain's unique judgment, we were able to explore various courses. Of course, at certain points, all three boats came together, so it felt safe. The guides communicated entirely in English, but printed materials in Japanese were distributed beforehand, so even if you're not good at conversation, you'll be fine. The boat's speed was full throttle, so it was quite fast. Moreover, with the rolling, it was thrilling. You might worry about seasickness, but while moving, you can feel the wind all over your body, so you completely forget about it. Still, for those who are anxious, taking medication beforehand would be perfect. I thought snorkeling would be the same no matter where you swim, but the underwater world in places without people was completely different. After swimming here, the ocean in Waikiki felt just like Japan's Enoshima, and I didn't feel like diving. Please make sure to enter the waters of Kealakekua Bay.
とても楽しかったです。ラフティングと思ってましたが、身体は全く濡れることなく、快適なライディングでした。3隻での出港となりましたが、キャプテンの独自の判断でいろんなコースを巡ることが出来ました。もちろん、ポイントポイントでは3隻そろうのですから安心です。ガイドは全て英語でなされますが、事前に日本語で書かれたプリントが配布されますので、会話が不得意でも大丈夫です。ボートの速度はアクセル全開なので相当速いです。しかも、ローリング付きなのでスリル満点です。船酔いの心配があるかもしれませんが、走行中は全身で風を感じることができるので完全に忘れてしまいます。それでも不安な人は薬を飲んでおけば完璧でしょう。シュノーケリングはどこで泳いでも変わらないと思っていましたが、人が入らないところの水中は全く別世界でした。ここで泳いだら、ワイキキの海は日本の江ノ島と同じで、潜る気にはなりません。ぜひともケアラケクア湾の海には入って下さい。

I never expected it to be so thrilling when we set off from the bay. The boat moved slowly at first, and I was excited to see dolphins up close.

However, after a while, we arrived at the snorkeling spot, and when I started swimming, I was overwhelmed by how beautiful it was. The depth was also astonishing. We had lunch together, and it was so much fun to communicate with people from other countries. It was the best activity! I want to recommend it to everyone!

In early August, I participated with three family members and three friends, totaling six people. The pickup was smooth, and we arrived at the local port in just under an hour. It seemed to be a popular tour, with participants being a mix of Japanese and international guests. There were two boats available, one for Japanese speakers and one for international guests; we chose the international option. After about 15 minutes of departure, we arrived at "Heaven."
Since it was right after a high tide, the sandy beach wasn't visible, but the view was absolutely stunning—something you wouldn't see in Japan, and our excitement was at its peak. My 12-year-old child was snorkeling for the first time, and with a life vest on, they comfortably explored the beautiful underwater scenery. The boat was clean, and we enjoyed lunch in a tropical atmosphere, which was the perfect time to relax.
After lunch, we moved to a turtle watching point for photos, and the return trip was smooth and without any issues. Thank you to all the staff for a wonderful time!
On the boat, there was a nice breeze, making it comfortable, but be careful as you might get sunburned without realizing it, so make sure to take sun protection. Also, bringing a 500ml plastic bottle filled with tap water is a great idea to rinse off some seawater and feel refreshed!

The explanation about snorkeling was thorough, and even the companions who had felt scared on other tours were able to relax and enjoy themselves. They said they wanted to do more of this kind of thing.
The breakfast was delicious, and I was happy that they shared leftover snacks by putting them in a zip bag for everyone.

I haven't ever SCUBA'd and this is as close as one could get with little to no experience snorkeling or diving. The staff was top notch in their customer service. There are some other tours out there for a bit less money but they have so many people on their tour. Aqua Adventures was amazing in that the smaller tour (mine was about 20 some people) allowed for a more personal experience. I would do it again. I had plenty of time at two locations to SNUBA and snorkel. The fresh sandwiches and not too sweet mai thais (sp?) were great. Thanks AA for the awesome time!

The weather was not great on the day of the tour, but miraculously, it cleared up when we arrived at the sandbar. The gradient from the sandbar to the deep sea was beautiful, and I was very satisfied with it. We also saw nearly ten sea turtles. I didn't realize there were so many of them!
Overall, it was a satisfying tour, but I wish the pickup time had been 20 to 30 minutes earlier so that we could have had a bit more time for snorkeling. That way, we would have been able to catch the low tide and see the sandbar more clearly from the water's surface.
当日は天気がイマイチでしたが、サンドバーに着くと奇跡的に晴れました。サンドバーから海の深い所へのグラデーションが美しくとても満足のいくものでした。ウミガメも10匹近く見れました。あんなにいっぱいいるものなんですねー。
全体的には満足のいくツアーでしたが、ピックアップの時間をもう20~30分速めてもらって、シュノーケリングの時間をもう少し取ってもらいたいなと思いました。
そうすれば干潮の時間にも間に合って水面から出たサンドバーも見やすくなると思います。
Thank you for enjoying the sandbar. The tides vary from day to day, so it may not always be possible to enjoy the sandbar that is above the water's surface, but there are shallow areas where you can walk in the middle of the ocean, allowing you to experience something extraordinary. We look forward to your next visit.
サンドバーをお楽しみいただき有難うございます。潮の満ち引きは日によっても異なるため必ずしも水面からでたサンドバーをお楽しみいただくことはできませんが、海の真ん中で散歩できる浅瀬が広がりますので、非日常的な体験をお楽しみいただければと思いご案内いたしております。またのご利用お待ちしております。

Liked how this was in a bay...not in come choppy ocean with tons of waves and where I feel like I am having to fight just to stay upright...no way, this was nothing like that. It felt almost like I was back home at the lake and really peacefully just gliding through the waters.
And the bay itself is really pretty. Then the snorkel section of the trip was really fun too. To get in and see fish and wildlife I had never seen before was exciting.
Overall it was a really wonderful time in Hawaii and made a highlight of my vacation. Mahalo.

I participated in the afternoon session.
We boarded a yacht from the harbor and enjoyed a pleasant breeze while taking in the wonderful scenery during a brief cruise.
I spotted two turtles basking in the sun.
On this day, the sandbar didn't emerge from the water, but it was shallow enough to knee height, allowing us to enjoy the mystery of it.
The weather was nice, but there was quite a bit of wind, so the water felt warmer, almost like being in a hot spring.
While snorkeling, a turtle appeared right in front of me and swam towards me as I was getting my camera ready, which was a bit scary, but I was able to play with the turtle after snorkeling.
I had already enjoyed so much up to this point, but the lunch was absolutely delicious.
The staff asked, "Would you like to eat on the yacht's deck?" and my husband and I took over the space for ourselves (laughs).
Shopping usually takes center stage in Hawaii, but participating in this tour created the best memories and made me think that next time, I definitely want to go out to sea on a yacht again!
午後の部に参加してきました。
港からヨットに乗り、気持ちの良い風を浴びながら、素晴らしい景色を眺めながら、しばしのクルージング。
甲羅干しをしているカメを2匹発見しました。
この日のサンドバーは海面から顔を出すことはありませんでしたが、膝ぐらいの浅さだったので十分神秘を味わえました。
天気は良かったですが、風が結構あったので、水の中の方が温かく、温泉に来ているようでした。
シュノーケリングでは目の前にカメが現れ、カメラを構えていた自分の方に向かってきたので怖かったですが、シュノーケリング後もカメと遊ぶことができました。
ここまでも十分楽しみましたが、なんといってもランチが最高においしかったです。
スタッフの方が「ヨットのデッキで食べますか?」と言ってくれ、夫婦2人で占領させていただきました(笑)
いつもハワイはショッピング中心になりますが、このツアーに参加して、次回も必ずヨットで沖に出よう!と思わしてくれる最高の思い出になりました!!!

Snorkeling at Kealakekua Bay had very high visibility and was quite satisfying. In Hawaii, Hanauma Bay on Oahu is famous for snorkeling, and I have experienced it several times, but the visibility at Kealakekua Bay surpassed my experiences at Hanauma.
Ocean rafting is quite bumpy and fast, so it's almost impossible to wear a hat on the boat. Don't forget facial sunscreen. Especially after snorkeling, the sunscreen washes off, which can lead to serious sunburn.
ケアラケクア湾のシュノーケリング。透明度がとても高く満足のいくものでした。ハワイではオアフ島のハナウマ湾がシュノーケリングで有名で、何度か体験していますが、今回のケアラケクア湾の透明度はハナウマでの経験を上回るものでした。

In addition to seeing the moving red lava, they also took us to a canyon that can only be accessed by helicopter, showcasing a world you can't see in everyday life.

トシさんはアロハブリーズという会社もされているそうです。
その時の自然の状態を見られるので、何度経験しても飽きないと思います。
次もぜひ、ヘリに乗ろうと思います!

I was planning to relax at Kailua Beach, but the day I signed up for the tour was Independence Day! The beach was packed with people. Well, I managed to enjoy it to some extent, but if you're aiming for a "relaxing" experience, it seems better to avoid Sundays and holidays.
カイルアのビーチでのんびり。。。を予定していたら、ツアー申し込んだ日は建国記念日!ビーチはLocoでイッパイでした。
まぁ、そこそこには楽しめましたけど。。。
「のんびり」を目指すのであれば、日曜・祝日は避けた方がよさそうです。
