5-Hour Liko Kauai Catamaran Tour - Na Pali Coast Sea Caves & Snorkel with Lunch

This review is for the non-swimmers

Reviewed by: Tina

This was an amazing experience in every way!
The boat ride felt like a roller coaster ride, the sightseeing was breathtaking, the crew was so friendly and kept us entertained with all the knowledge and stories about the island and lastly the snorkeling experience was so refreshing!! I am a non swimmer and so a big paranoid in very deep water, even with my floaties!! But leeroy took such good care of me when I was snorkeling, he even took me for a ride in the water with a tube, so that I could see more fishes and get a complete experience, it was amazing!!!

The whole crew is amazing, captain Rob, Kana with the storytelling skills and Ofcourse Leroy, they all make such a a amazing team. Will be back soon!

マンタ大学夜学部 野生のマンタ&ナイトシュノーケリングツアー <送迎可/日本語スタッフ乗船日あり>

I was able to meet a manta ray! マンタに会えました!

Reviewed by: はぐまま

The shuttle driver spoke only English, but he was very kind. When we arrived at the harbor, there was a Japanese staff member (a woman), which made me feel at ease as I prepared. She also accompanied us on the activities, so I was a bit anxious about the night snorkeling, but I enjoyed it.

Most importantly, I was moved to see a manta ray up close, which I hadn't encountered the day before. It seems that this tour is the only one where you can see manta rays during night snorkeling, so I highly recommend it for anyone going to the Big Island. They provide wetsuits, so it's not cold at all.

送迎ドライバーは英語オンリーでしたがとても優しい方でした。
ハーバーに着くと日本人スタッフ(女性)がいて安心して準備ができました。その方がアクティビティーにも同行していたので、ナイトシュノーケリング少し不安でしたが楽しめました。
何より前日は現れなかったマンタに会えて、すごく近くで観られたことが感動でした。
ナイトシュノーケリングでマンタに会えるのはこちらのツアーだけらしいのでハワイ島行かれる方は是非参加することをおすすめします。
ウエットスーツ貸してもらえるのでぜんぜん寒くないです。

Kaneohe Sandbar (Morning Session) カネオヘサンドバー(午前の部)

Reviewed by: hosop

I participated in the morning session of a family trip (with elementary and middle school students). It was almost high tide, but at about 1 meter, it was safe for elementary school students to play.

What stood out the most was the cheerful and fun attitude of both the shuttle driver and the guide on the boat. They were quite fluent in Japanese (or rather, most of them were Japanese), so I highly recommend this tour compared to others.

Here are some points summarized by category for your reference!

【Shuttle】The outbound trip took about 45 minutes, and the return trip took about 60 minutes. We were picked up around 9:00 at the bus stop near Trump, making it easy to participate. The same driver took us both ways, and during the return trip, he engaged us with comments about our experiences. (He also provided cheerful guidance in English and broken Japanese along the way.) There was a service for those who wanted to stop at a famous malasada shop (Leonard's) on the way back.

【Boat Transfer】It takes about 10 minutes to arrive, and the waves are calm, so there’s hardly any worry about seasickness. We spotted several sea turtles on the way out (although we could see them multiple times at the sandbar).

【Snorkeling】Everyone wears life jackets and sanitized snorkels, and there were also zayaks (a type of board with a viewing window?) available for children. For adults who cannot swim, one of the guides provides support nearby. There were many fish, but everyone was particularly excited about the sea turtles.

【Activities】After snorkeling, you can enjoy SUP, zayaks, floaties, and photo opportunities at the sandbar. There was about one SUP per group, so everyone had fun (taking turns as a family).

【On the Boat】The boat has a restroom and is quite clean. The minimal rocking of the boat also left a good impression.

【Food and Drink】There are unlimited servings of spam musubi, apples, snacks, nut bars, and juices (only one spam musubi per person). So, you can go without bringing anything.

【Caution】Jellyfish (Portuguese man o' war) were present, and a few people got stung (though everyone had minor injuries). I think long-sleeved rash guards are essential.

家族旅行(小学生+中学生)で午前の部に参加しました。
ほぼ満潮のタイミングでしたが、1m程度なので小学生でも安全に遊べました。

何より素晴らしいのは送迎の運転手、船上のガイドとも明るく楽しい気持ちになりました。日本語もかなり通じやすい(というかほぼ日本人の方も)ので、他のツアーに比べて非常にオススメできます。

以下に観点別のポイントをまとめたのでご参考までに!

【送迎】往路は45分ほど、帰路は60分ほどでの到着でした。トランプ近くのバス停に9:00頃ピックアップだったので無理なく参加できました。また行と帰りは同じ運転手で帰宅時には感想などの声掛けもしてくれます。(道中、英語と片言の日本語で陽気にガイドもしてくれます)。
希望者はマラサダの有名店(レナーズ)に帰路で下車するサービスもありました。

【船移動】10分程度で着く上に波も穏やかなので船酔いの心配は殆どありません。往路ではウミガメを何匹か見つけました(サンドバーで何度も見れますが)

【シュノーケル】全員がライフジャケット、シュノーケル(消毒済み)着用しますが、小児はzayak(除き窓付のビート版?)の貸し出しもありました。大人で泳げない人はガイドの1名が近くでサポートもしてくれます。魚も多いですがやはりウミガメは皆さんテンションがあがっていました。

【アクティビティ】シュノーケル後はサンドバーでSUPやZAYAK、浮き輪、写真撮影などを楽しめます。SUPも1組1台程度はあるので皆さん楽しめてました(家族で交代しながら)

【船上】トイレ付で船自体も結構キレイです。揺れが少ない点も好印象。

【飲食】スパムにぎり、りんご、スナック菓子、ナッツバー、ジュース類が食べ放題です(スパム握りだけ1人1つ)。よって手ぶらで問題なし。

【注意点】くらげ(カツオノエボシ)が流れてくるので、刺されている人が数人いました。(ただし皆さん軽傷)長袖のラッシュガードなどは必須と思います。

サンドバー天使の海 シュノーケリング&ウミガメウォッチクルーズ 船上のBBQグリルで焼くハンバーガーランチ付き!<午前/日本語クルー>

Beware of jellyfish. クラゲに注意

Reviewed by: モモモ

More than one-third of the participants were stung by jellyfish. It should be possible to take precautions such as wearing rash guards in advance. The sea is beautiful, but there weren't many fish, and it was murky, so we left early. For those who have experienced snorkeling in Okinawa, this may feel lacking.

During peak times, more than 60 people participate, so the boat can get very crowded during meal times and when entering the water.

参加者の3分の1以上がクラゲに刺されました。事前にラッシュガードの着用など徹底できるはずです。海は綺麗ですが、魚はあまりおらず、濁っていたので早々に引き上げました。沖縄方面を経験している方には物足りないシュノーケリングです。

ピーク時だと60人以上が参加するため、食事時や入水時など船上は大混雑です。

Fun, Inviting, and Friendly!

Reviewed by: Mejia Family

When my family and I first got to the dock we were greeted by the friendly boat crew. They were very personable and caring. On the adventure, we made our way to the sandbar and were able to snorkel, paddleboard, canoe, and relax on the water deck. The sandbar was perfect to stand on and was not deep. The reef was beautiful to look at while snorkeling. My family and I paid extra for the intertube and banana boat, this experience was AWESOME!! You were asked what speed you would like the ride. We wore life jackets and we felt very safe even though this was an extreme water activity. The live music was wonderful, while the overall atmosphere was family oriented. This was our favorite excursion!! If you want a day to play in the water and have fun with the family, this is the excursion for you.

ハナウマ湾シュノーケリング ベテラン日本語ガイドがご案内する少人数制ツアー 貸切プランあり<半日/水中写真付き>

It was a beautiful sea! 綺麗な海でした!

Reviewed by: まーちん

It was amazing to swim with so many fish. I rented a wetsuit, which I hadn't planned to do initially, but it turned out to be the right decision because the water temperature was lower than I expected, and it protected me from the coral and underwater rocks. I wasn't confident in my swimming skills, but the suit provided buoyancy, allowing me to snorkel with ease. Guides Dan and Chieko took us to points where we could see a lot of fish. They also took many photos before, during, and after snorkeling, which I really appreciated. They arranged transportation to the hotel and made the reservation for entry to Hanauma Bay, making it easy to participate. Throughout the experience, they were very attentive, allowing me to enjoy the tour comfortably and happily. I would love to join again if I have the opportunity!

たくさんの魚と一緒に泳ぐことができて最高でした。当初借りる予定のなかったウェットスーツをレンタルしましたが、水温が思ったより低かったこととサンゴや水中の岩から身を守れたため、レンタルして正解でした。泳ぎに自信がなかったのですが、スーツ自体に浮力があるので、安心してシュノーケルすることができました。ガイドのダンさんチエコさんが魚のいるポイントまで連れて行ってくれるのでたくさんの魚を見ることができます。シュノーケル前後、シュノーケル中もたくさん写真を撮ってくださり有難かったです。ホテルまでの送迎やハナウマ湾の入場予約もしてくれるので気軽に参加できました。終始、丁寧に対応していただいたので楽しく快適にツアーを楽しむことができました。また機会があれば参加したいです!

ビーチシュノーケリング 波が穏やかな浅瀬のマジックアイランドのラグーンで初心者やお子様でも安心!英語ガイドのサポート付き 写真&動画無料<1時間/アラモアナ>

It's a good practice for a first-time snorkeling experience. シュノーケリング初体験には良い練習です

Reviewed by: poohsaya

I participated in the initial practice for snorkeling because I was anxious about going out to sea the next day. Since it was my first experience with snorkeling, the calm waves made it a great place for beginners. All the instructions were in English. They explained how to put on the gear, how to breathe, and the precautions. After that, we practiced in an area where we couldn't touch the bottom. It was mentioned that there was a locker for valuables, but all participants' belongings were placed in a large box with a lock, which was mostly left open. It's better not to bring valuables.

Since it was the same location as scuba diving, it seemed there were staff members coming and going. There were only park restrooms and an outdoor shower. This time, there were two children and me, along with two Americans in our group. For those who can't swim, the instructor pulls a float, so you can hold on and practice. I highly recommend this for anyone who feels anxious about going straight into the sea.

翌日の海に出てシュノーケリングが不安だったのでの初練習として参加。初体験シュノーケリングなので参加して波が穏やかで、初体験の場所として良かったです。説明は全て英語です。付け方や息の仕方の方法、注意事項を説明その後は足が付かない所でずっと練習、貴重品ロッカーと書いてありましたが、大きな鍵付きの箱の中に参加者全員の荷物を入れる、ほぼ開けっぱなしです。貴重品は持たない方が良いですね。
スキューバダイビングと同じ場所なので入れ違いで誰かスタッフがいるようでした。
公園のトイレと外にシャワーがあるだけです。
今回は子供2人と私、アメリカ人2人のグループでした。泳げない人はインストラクターが浮き具を引いてくれるので捕まって練習してました。
いきなり海に開くのが不安な方にはとてもお勧めです。

サンドバー キャプテンブルース 天国の海®︎シュノーケリングクルーズ SUPや浮き輪などレンタルアイテムも!<午前・午後/日本語クルー>

I had a great time!! とっても楽しかったです!!

Reviewed by: AAA

The bus picked us up right in front of the hotel, which was very helpful. The inside of the bus was cold, just like "theBUS," so I recommend bringing a jacket!

Since it was an early morning plan, I had a light breakfast at the hotel, but on the boat, they provided drinks, spam onigiri, snacks, and fruits. The hot coffee was really delicious! The couple sitting next to us brought sandwiches, and I thought it would have been nice to enjoy that on the boat instead of at the hotel.

The staff who spoke Japanese kindly explained about the life jackets, how to play, and movies filmed in the area.

I checked the tide online and made a reservation, but the tide level during my session was just about waist-high! It was my first time trying SUP, and since the water was only waist-deep, it was easy to retry after falling, and I had a lot of fun.

While I was playing with my smartphone in a waterproof case, a friendly staff member offered to take my picture and captured me standing on the board! (There was even a moment when I lost my balance and fell, which was funny.)

During snorkeling, I had a great encounter with sea turtles and fish.

After getting out of the water, it was cold, and the young man next to me was shivering a lot. I recommend bringing a jacket, not just a T-shirt, like in the bus! Also, some hotels lend out bath towels, so it might be good to ask about that.

After getting off the boat, I was able to change at a nearby restroom. I had a really enjoyable experience and was very satisfied.

ホテルの前までバスで迎えに来ていただいて、助かります。
車内は「theBUS」同様 寒かったので、
羽織りを持っていくことをオススメします!

早朝プランだったので、ホテルで軽く朝食を食べてきていましたが
船では、ドリンク・スパムおにぎり・スナック・フルーツなどを用意してくれていました。
ホットコーヒーがとても美味しかったです!
同乗していたご夫婦は、サンドイッチなども持参されていて、
船上で気持ちがいいし、ホテルで食べずにそれもアリだったな〜!と思いました。

日本語を話せるスタッフさんが、
救命具のこと、遊び方、周辺で撮影された映画のことなど優しく説明してくれました。

一応潮の満ち引きはネットで調べて予約をしましたが、
私が参加した回は潮の高さはちょうど腰ほどでした!
SUPは初挑戦でしたが、落ちても潮が腰の高さなので
リトライしやすく、とても楽しかったです。

防水ケースにスマホを入れて遊んでいたら、
気さくなスタッフの方が「写真撮りますよ」と声をかけてくださって、
ボードの上に立っている姿を撮影してくれました!(バランス崩して落ちる瞬間も笑)

シュノーケリングでは、ウミガメ、魚にバッチリ逢えました。

海から上がったあとは寒くて、隣の青年がめちゃくちゃ震えていました。
Tシャツだけでなく、バス内同様 羽織りの持参がオススメです…!
また、バスタオルを貸し出してくれるホテルもあるので聞いてみると良いかと思います。

船を降りた後、すぐ近くのお手洗いで着替えができました。
とっても楽しい体験ができて満足です。

Aloha! Thank you very much for participating in the Captain Bruce's Paradise of the Seas tour. We also appreciate you sharing your review and photos. As you mentioned, after coming out of the water, your body can be wet, and even in summer, the wind can make you feel cold, so we recommend bringing a larger bath towel or a jacket. We're glad to hear you enjoyed the spam musubi and coffee. We hope you will come back to play in Paradise of the Seas on your next trip to Hawaii. Mahalo!

Waikiki Guided Beach Snorkeling Tour for Beginners with FREE Photos & Videos

Wonderful experience!

Reviewed by: Daniela

It was a wonderful experience for beginners. Our instructor was patient and explained everything thoroughly. I liked that we snorkeled in a cove making the waters calm.

サンドバー キャプテンブルース 天国の海®︎シュノーケリングクルーズ SUPや浮き輪などレンタルアイテムも!<午前・午後/日本語クルー>

It can be summed up in one word: amazing! 最高の一言に尽きます!

Reviewed by: YUSKAE

The highlight of this trip for me was definitely the sandbar. Unfortunately, the weather was rainy, but I was still able to enjoy myself thoroughly.
While snorkeling, you can take underwater photos with your iPhone using a waterproof case. I even managed to capture a photo of a sea turtle.
Depending on the weather, it can get quite cold, so I recommend bringing a bath towel. As for other essentials, just cash for tips, your iPhone, and a waterproof case should be enough. I also brought a change of clothes, but there isn't a designated place to change, so we ended up wrapping ourselves in bath towels on the way back.
They also provide some light snacks, spam musubi, and soft drinks, so I think a light breakfast will suffice.
There was also a Japanese guide who was very kind and helpful.
I definitely think you won't regret participating!!!

今回の旅行で1番楽しみにしていたのが、このサンドバーでした。天気は残念ながら雨でしたが、十分楽しむことができました。
シュノーケリング中、防水ケースを使えば自分のiPhoneで水中の写真も撮れます。ウミガメの写真も撮れました。
天気によってはかなり体が冷えるので、バスタオルを持って行ったほうがいいと思います。他の持ち物はチップ用の現金、iPhone、防水ケースさえあればどうにかなります。着替えも持って行きましたが、着替える場所が用意されているわけではないので私達はバスタオルにくるまったまま帰りました。
ちょっとしたスナック菓子、スパムむすび、ソフトドリンクも準備していただけるので朝ご飯は軽く済ませるくらいで平気だと思います。
日本人のガイドさんもいらっしゃって、とても親切にしていただきました。
絶対に参加して後悔はしないと思います!!!

Aloha! Thank you very much for joining the Captain Bruce's Paradise of the Sea Tour. Although the weather was unfortunate, we are glad to hear that you encountered sea turtles and enjoyed your experience. Additionally, as you mentioned, it is often breezy in Hawaii, so it would be a good idea to bring a larger bath towel, as you may feel a bit chilly after coming out of the water.

Lastly, we are truly touched by your kind words, "I absolutely think you won't regret participating." Our entire staff is thrilled to hear this. We hope you will join us again on the Paradise of the Sea Tour during your next visit to Hawaii. Mahalo!

アロハ!キャプテンブルース天国の海ツアーのご参加頂きまして誠にありがとうございました。
あいにくのお天気でしたが、ウミガメにも遭遇され、楽しんでいただけたようで嬉しく思います。また、どんなにお天気でもハワイは貿易風が吹いていることが多いので海から上がられた後に肌寒さを感じられることが多いため、YUSUKE様がおっしゃったように大きめなバスタオルをご持参いただくとよろしいかと思います。
最後に「絶対に参加して後悔はしないと思います」という大変嬉しいお言葉をいただき、スタッフ一同感激しております。
次回またハワイへお越しの際には天国の海のツアーへご参加いただけましたら幸いです。Mahalo!

It's safe even for beginners. 初心者でも安心です

Reviewed by: ぴーちゃん

My husband and I participated together. I was worried since it was my husband's first time snorkeling, but the captain and the crew helped us by pulling the boat, allowing us to see the fish and corals clearly while swimming.

We also saw turtles. The snacks on the boat were delicious. Everyone spoke Japanese well and provided great support, making it an enjoyable experience. Thank you!

旦那と2人で参加しました。
旦那はシュノーケル初めてだったので心配でしたが、キャプテン達がボートで引っ張ってくださり、泳ぎながら魚やサンゴをしっかり見ることができました。

亀も見えました。船の上の軽食も美味しかったです。
皆さん日本語が上手で、しっかりサポートしてくれるので楽しめました。ありがとうございました!

Aloha! Thank you very much for participating in the Captain Bruce's Paradise of the Sea tour. I'm glad to hear that you enjoyed it with your husband. I'm also happy that you were able to try snorkeling. The underwater world is truly full of wonder and beauty, so I highly recommend it. Please come back to enjoy snorkeling again. We will be waiting for you and the honu (sea turtles) on that day. Mahalo!

P.S. The staff's improvement in Japanese is thanks to all of you. We look forward to your continued support.

ハナウマ湾シュノーケリング ベテラン日本語ガイドがご案内する少人数制ツアー 貸切プランあり<半日/水中写真付き>

I couldn't meet the turtle. 亀にあえませんでした

Reviewed by: 子だぬき

I swam while being careful not to touch the coral and keeping my face in the water, but there were few fish, and I didn't encounter any turtles. The waves were present, and since I couldn't touch the bottom for nearly an hour, I got quite tired.

ひたすら、珊瑚に足をつかないように気を付けて、顔をつけるようにして、泳ぎましたが、魚は少なく、亀にもあえませんでした。
波もあり、1時間近く足がつけないので、かなり疲れました。

The sandbar was great. サンドバーは良かった

Reviewed by: 子だぬき

I went stand-up paddleboarding at the sandbar. It was a lot of fun. After that, I went snorkeling. The last time I participated, we moved a bit further by boat, but this time we walked from the sandbar to a slightly deeper area. Unfortunately, there weren't many fish, which was disappointing. I preferred the previous location.

サンドバーでサップをしました。とても楽しかったです。その後、スノーケリングでした。以前参加したときは、船でもう少し移動したのですが、今回はサンドバーから歩いて少し深いところまで行きました。あまり魚はいなくて残念でした。前の場所の方が良かったなぁ。

Aloha! Thank you for joining the Captain Bruce's Paradise Ocean Tour.
The locations we visit have not changed since our founding, but perhaps they looked different due to the weather.
I'm very sorry that you didn't see many fish while snorkeling, but I'm glad to hear you enjoyed the SUP. Fish and sea turtles live in nature, so the encounter rate can vary from day to day, but we would be delighted if you could join us again for the Paradise Ocean Tour. All of our staff are looking forward to welcoming you. Mahalo!

アロハ! キャプテンブルース天国の海ツアーにご参加頂きましてありがとうございます。
ツアーで行く場所は創業時から変わっていないのですが、お天気などの感じで違って見えたのかもしれないですね。
シュノーケリング中にあまりお魚を見ていただけなくて大変残念ですが、SUPは楽しんでいただけたようで嬉しく思います。お魚もウミガメも自然に生きるものですから日によって遭遇率も異なるのですが、ぜひまた天国の海ツアーにご参加いただけましたら幸いです。スタッフ一同お待ち申し上げています。Mahalo!

2-Hour Turtle Canyon Snorkeling Cruise from Waikiki - Living Ocean Tours

Very professional operation

Reviewed by: Mike

Everything was well organized and staff was professional. The beat part of this trip is that this is one of the first boats out to turtle canyon before the circus arrives. Get in early and get out while there are few people in the water.

Hanauma Bay is the best! ハナウマ湾最高じゃん

Reviewed by: しゅん

It was tough to wake up early, but it was fun. I've been to Hawaii many times, but it was my first time swimming at Hanauma Bay. I was surprised to see so many different types of fish! It was very beautiful. During the one-hour snorkeling, I lost track of time. I wanted to swim more. The guide was also very kind. I would like to participate again.

朝が早く大変でしたが楽しかったです。
何度もHawaiiに来てますが初めてハナウマ湾で泳ぎました。
思ったより沢山の種類のお魚が見れてビックリ!とても奇麗でした。1時間のスノーケリングで時間を忘れてしまうほど。もっと泳いでいたかったです。
ガイドさんも親切でした。
また参加したいです。
