Ocean Encounters Manta Ray Snorkel Tour - Sunset & Moonlight Cruise from Kona

Mantas are amazing but not the boat or the crew.

Reviewed by: Mashka

The boat was old and had not enough power. On the way there we were passed by many boats of same size. Then the boat wouldn't start at all and we were towed back to port. 3 passengers were very sea sick.
The crew didn't provide any information about the manta reys while we watched. Other boat crews were very informative.
Would not recommend.

Sandbar Tour サンドバーツアー

Reviewed by: sayu

I participated with my husband on our honeymoon. Although it was mentioned that masks were required, we brought them just in case but did not wear them.

The boat ride was very smooth, and even though I usually get seasick, I felt completely fine and was able to enjoy snacks without feeling nauseous! Even those who typically get seasick might be okay with this experience.

Before boarding, we had to sign something like a contract, but hardly anyone was dressed as stated in the document; most people were in casual clothing with their arms and legs exposed. So, it might not be as strict as the regulations suggest.

On the boat, they played live Hawaiian music, and we spent our time enjoying snacks like donuts and drinks. Once we arrived, we could swim right away, and there were free rentals for snorkeling and kayaking. There were also paid options like banana boats and jet skis available if there were openings on the day.

We had about two hours to enjoy the sea, which felt quite leisurely. On the return boat, they offered warm tea to help warm us up. The explanations were given in English, Japanese, and Korean, and although they were a bit broken, they were understandable.

Overall, the sea was not as impressive as I had imagined, but perhaps it was just the timing? Regardless, I appreciated the chance to relax, enjoyed the snacks as much as I wanted, and my husband seemed satisfied, so I rated it four stars.

One disappointing aspect was that the location is far from Honolulu, so we requested transportation, but both the outbound and return trips were delayed. In the morning, we were about 20 minutes late, but the return bus also took a long time to depart. The driver eventually returned to inform us that one group of passengers was still eating their snacks, and we couldn't leave until they finished. This was understandably frustrating. Other tourists were also getting impatient, and it seemed that someone went to talk to the couple eating to expedite things. We finally departed about 30 minutes later, which was unacceptable.

I would appreciate it if you could mention in the guidelines that eating is not allowed during the trip, or that transportation will not be provided if passengers choose to eat. The couple was apparently unaware that they would be departing soon, but their assumptions inconvenienced others. I also thought it was rude that they sat down without apologizing.

The staff, atmosphere, and service were good, but the transportation issues before and after really detracted from the experience.

ハネムーンで夫と参加しました。マスク着用とありましたが、私達は念のため持っていきましたが着用はしませんでした。
道中の船はとても静かに進み、いつも薬を飲んでいても船酔いする私がまったくせず、軽食を食べても酔いもせず快適でした!普段船酔いする方でもこれなら大丈夫かもしれません。
事前に契約書?みたいなのにサインするのですが、そこに書かれているような服装の人はほぼおらず、普通にみんな足とか腕とか出た服装でした。だからいろいろ規約に書かれているほど厳しくないのかもしれないです。
船ではハワイアンミュージックを生演奏してくれるのでそれを聞いたり、軽食のドーナツや飲み物を飲んで過ごしました。
着いてからはそのまま泳げますし、シュノーケルやカヤックなども無料で貸し出しがあるのですることができます。有料のバナナボートや水上バイク?も当日空きがあればお金を支払って参加できます。
着いてからは丸々2時間ほどあったのでしょうか?かなりゆっくり海に入っていられた印象です。
帰りのボートでは暖かい紅茶もあるので冷えた身体を温められます。
説明は英語、日本語、韓国語などで片言ですが伝わります。
全体的に想像してたより海は普通で感動はしませんでしたがタイミングなのでしょうか?
とりあえずゆっくりできたこと、軽食は好きなだけ食べれたこと、彼が満足そうだったので、星4にしました。
1つ残念なこととしては場所がホノルルから離れているので送迎をお願いしたのですが、行きも帰りも遅かったこと。朝も20分ほど予定から遅れていましたが、まさかの帰りのバスも待っても待っても出発せず、運転手が戻ってきて告げたのは乗客の1組が現地で軽食を食べている。それが終わらないことには出られないとのこと。勿論イライラ。外人の観光客もしびれをきらしそのご飯中の1組のところへ行って話し合って来てくれたようで、なんとか30分後くらいには出発できましたがあり得なかったです。
申し訳ないですが注意事項に現地での途中飲食は出来ませんとか、途中飲食される場合は送迎致しませんとか書いて下さい。食べていたカップルはそんなにすぐ出発すると思わなかったと言っていたと運転手が言っていましたが、勝手な思い込みは他の人が迷惑です。乗車の際も謝りもせず普通に座って何様なのかと思いました。
スタッフ、雰囲気、サービスは良かっただけにその前後の送迎が足を引っ張った感じがします。

It was a view that will stay in my heart for a lifetime! I highly recommend it! 心に一生残る景色でした!強くおすすめします

Reviewed by: とらだい

I used this service for my honeymoon in late September. We quickly arrived at the sandbar by boat from the port. During the boat ride, the staff provided explanations. The main language was English, but they also kindly explained in Japanese, which made me feel very reassured. (There were probably about three Japanese couples participating.)

I checked the tide levels before making the reservation, but fortunately, the sky was clear, and the water depth at the sandbar was just right. First, we put on life jackets and swam in relatively deep, beautiful coral reefs. We were able to see sleeping sea turtles, the staff attracted fish for us, and we even got to touch starfish. My wife, who can't swim, was able to enjoy herself without worry. The sea was, of course, beautiful.

After returning to the shallow area, we were able to take wonderful pictures with stunning views. When we got back to the boat, they had coffee, juice, snacks, and apples prepared, so we could take a break if we got tired. The staff were all smiling and supported us in having a great time. It became a lifelong memory. I definitely want to participate again when I come back to Hawaii!!!

Thank you, everyone! One piece of advice: the round-trip bus has very strong air conditioning, so it might be good to have something to wear over your shoulders!

9月下旬に新婚旅行で利用いたしました。
港からサンドバーへはボートであっという間に着きました。ボートで向かってる間にスタッフさんから説明があります。基本は英語ですが、日本語での説明も丁寧にしてくださいましたので、とても安心できました。(おそらく日本人の方は3組くらい参加していました)
一応潮の満ち引きは予約前に確認はしましたが、幸い空は快晴で、サンドバーの水深もちょうど良かったです。
まず、ライフジャケットを付けて、比較的最新の深いサンゴ礁を泳ぎました。眠っているウミガメを見れたり、スタッフさんが魚を寄せてくれたり、ヒトデを触らせてくれたりもしました。泳げない妻でも安心して楽しめました。海はもちろん綺麗です。
浅瀬に戻ってからは、SAPで素晴らしい景色とたくさん写真を撮ることができました。
ボートに戻るとコーヒーやジュース、スナック菓子、林檎など用意してくれているので、疲れたら休憩することが出来ます。
スタッフさんも皆さんニコニコで、こちらが楽しむことをサポートしてくれます。
一生の思い出になりました。またハワイに来たら是非とも参加したいです!!!
皆さんありがとうございました!!
一つアドバイスですが、往復のバスはエアコンがめちゃめちゃ効いてるので、羽織るものはあった方がいいかも!

You can enjoy it even if you participate alone. 1人参加でも楽しめます

Reviewed by: あいこ

I participated alone, but the staff were friendly and often checked in on me, which I appreciated. The appearance of the sandbar depends on the season and time of day, so on the day I attended, the water level was up to my chest, and I couldn't see the beach. However, I had a great time doing activities like snorkeling, kayaking, and stand-up paddleboarding in the shallow water where I could stand. If you have flexibility in your schedule, it might be a good idea to check the tide levels and visit on a day when the sandbar is visible. The sun is very strong, so a hat is essential during activities. (My crown got quite sunburned, and the shower was painful...)

1人で参加しましたが、スタッフがフレンドリーでよく声をかけてくれ、気遣いを感じました。
サンドバーの出現は時期や時間帯にもよるので、私が参加した日は胸あたりまで水位があり、砂浜は見ることができませんでしたが、足がつく浅めの海でシュノーケルやカヤック、supなどのアクティビティをして楽しかったです。日程に余裕があり調整できる方は潮位などを調べて、サンドバーが見られる日に行くと良いかもしれません。日差しがとても強いのでアクティビティ中も帽子は必須です。(つむじがかなり日焼けしてシャワーが痛かったです…)

Fun but you need lots of upper body strength lol

Reviewed by: Val

I went with my husband for this kayaking adventure. We are both very new to this so it was a bit hard at first. I think the hardest thing was understanding the map. However after a while it was great. The only down side is that is was windy and going back did take it out of us. However we did have so much fun at the sand bar. We weren’t able to go snorkeling because we we’re going to run out of time. So buy the 8 hours. It’s worth it

Aloha Val! Thank you so much for joining us for a kayaking adventure! And thank you for taking the time to leave this awesome review for us. We really appreciate that. Kayaking in the ocean can certainly be a workout because of the wind and current, and the sandbar is the farthest paddle, so it's great that you made it out there and it looks like you had a beautiful day for it. Stoked to hear it was a good kayaking experience and hope to see you again soon! Mahalo!

I booked the morning turtle snorkel tour hoping that time would ensure we saw turtles and we did! There were 5 turtles and occasionally 1 would surface near us and then swim back down. Great experience seeing them up close.
This tour was the best price I found and since it's a short sail, glad I did.

Reviewed by: さんちゃん

I joined a sandbar tour because I wanted to see the beautiful ocean. When the English guidance started, I was a bit worried, but they kindly explained everything again in Japanese. Finally, we arrived at the sandbar. It seemed like everyone was good at swimming, as it naturally led to snorkeling, and we all went into the water in our swimsuits. Since neither my husband nor I can swim, we waited in the shallow area of the sandbar, and the instructor brought a float for us to hold onto while pulling us towards the deeper water. Looking into the ocean, we saw so many beautiful fish swimming around, and a large turtle swam right underneath us. It was a truly magical experience. I am grateful to the instructor who gently guided us through the stunning ocean, making it the best memory of our 10-day trip to Hawaii.

素敵な海を見たくて参加したサンドバーのツアー。英語でのガイダンスが始まった時はどうしようかと思いましたが、ちゃんと日本語でも改めて説明してくれました。そしていよいよサンドバーに到着。皆さん泳ぎは得意なのか、当然のようにシュノーケリングをする流れになり、水着で海の中に。私たち夫婦は2人とも泳げないことから、サンドバーの浅瀬で待っていると、インストラクターの方が浮棒を持ってきて、掴まりながら深い海の方まで引っ張っていただきました。海の中を覗くと、とても綺麗な魚がたくさん泳いでいて、そして、大きな亀が真下を横切る。とても幻想的な時間が流れました。期待以上の美しい海の中を、優しく案内していただいたインストラクターの方に感謝。10日間のハワイ旅行の中で一番の思い出になりました。

Beautiful view with lots to explore

Reviewed by: Theresa

First off, the employees there are very helpful and elaborate when explaining how the tour works. The views all around were absolutely beautiful, one of my favorite experiences during my Hawaii trip. The kayaking was definitely tiring, even though we only went around the closest nearby reefs and it wasn't a windy day. However, it was really cool to be able to anchor the kayak yourself and decide where you want to go. We were able to see lots of coral (even some new, colorful ones!), schools of fish, and 2 sea turtles! Overall, would definitely recommend this tour to others, and would like to come back one day.

Four Winds Deluxe Molokini Snorkel Tour with Breakfast, Taco Bar Lunch & Drinks

Best trip - especially with toddlers

Reviewed by: Krier family

Our family of eight, included two 18 month olds. This trip was so accommodating. The entire crew seemed to love their jobs and were very helpful. The snorkel equipment fit perfect with no fogging up. They even had some little rafts that had a window into the ocean that was perfect for kids, including the toddlers. One of our kiddos was still not comfortable on the raft so he was able to view the fishies from the glass bottom. Breakfast and lunch hit the spot.

The on board photographer did a great job capturing our group even though we seemed to all go in different directions. And the cost of our album was very reasonable. It was nice to just focus on the snorkeling and not worry about the camera.

Although we didn’t need it, the crew also offered a short class on snorkeling for beginners.

It was the best day of our vacation.

I was very satisfied with the abundance of sea turtles. ウミガメがいっぱいで大満足

Reviewed by: Yama

My wife and I participated together. We checked the tide level of the sandbar in advance and chose a day with relatively shallow tides to plan our trip and tour schedule. The tide level when we participated was about 60 cm, allowing us to enjoy the atmosphere of the sandbar. Whether walking or swimming, it takes about 5 minutes to reach the sandbar area. Outside the sandbar area, the water gets deeper, and there are corals, where we went snorkeling. We encountered many beautiful fish and sea turtles. It was very moving to see a large sea turtle sleeping on the seabed and three smaller sea turtles swimming together. We were very satisfied and were able to fully enjoy ourselves for over an hour. The only downside was that the water was a bit murky.

We brought our own snorkels and fins. The tour provided snorkels, but it seemed they did not have fins available, as other participants were not using them. If you want to enjoy snorkeling seriously, I think it's best to check in advance whether they can provide fins.

The staff were all able to speak Japanese, and they were kind, cheerful, and very good.

 妻と2人で参加しました。事前にサンドバーの潮位を確認して、比較的潮位が浅い日を選んで旅行とツアーの日程を決めました。参加したときの潮位は60cmくらいで、サンドバーの雰囲気を味わうことができました。ボートを降りて、歩いての移動でも、泳ぎながらの移動でも、5分くらいでサンドバーのエリアが終わります。サンドバーのエリアの外側は、深くなっていて、珊瑚もあり、この深いエリアでシュノーケリングをします。たくさんの綺麗なサカナやウミガメに会えました。大きなウミガメが水底で眠っているところや、小さめなウミガメが3匹で泳いでいるところなどが見られてとっても感動しました。私たちは大満足で、1時間以上、フルに楽しむことができました。唯一、水が濁っていたのが少し残念でした。
 私たちは自前でシュノーケルとフィンを持って行きました。ツアーでもシュノーケルは貸していましたが、フィンは用意されていないようで、他の参加者はフィンを使っていませんでした。本格的にシュノーケリングを楽しみたい方は、フィンを貸してくれるかどうか、事前に確認した方が良いと思います。
 スタッフの方々は、皆さん、日本語も話せて、親切で明るくて、とても良かったです。

Even with the rain it was still fun

Reviewed by: Annette

Amazing day even with the rain. Definitely coming back when it's sunny and low tide. Captain Robin and his team were super friendly, amazing and patient. Even with the rain there was plenty of fish and turtles to see. I'm not a strong swimmer and I need to touch the bottom (it's weird I know) but Captain Robin was so accomodating, calming, understanding and patient and took me out to the deep reef area on a floater device and I was able to see the fish and turtles. I'm glad he did and I'm glad he didn't push me when I tapped out early. True champion.
The vessel is clean and has plenty of snacks and hot and cold drinks if you don't want to take your own. You can take your own alcohol and they also have plenty of water toys, paddle boards, floatation devices in a seperate raft.
Make sure to bring cash to tip as they are definitely deserving of any gratuity and the experience is amazing as well. One I'll definitely do again when I'm back next time.
Thank you so much was a wonderful day.

Keauhou Bay Manta Ray Night Dive Tour & Snorkel Adventure from Kona - Sea Quest

Night Manta Ray Experience

Reviewed by: Peter Hauanio

We had an amazing experience, the mantas were huge and plentiful. Seeing the amount of plankton, no wonder the mantas stays in that area. The crew was awesome, the hot chocolate was great. Finding Sea quest was easy, and getting out to the swim site was quick. The only downfall was when water would get into the mask, and you go to readjust the mask, because there’s a lot of plankton around, could there be a possibility that you may have swallowed some as well, or may have gone up your nose. My friend had a serious sinus infection the day after our tour. She’s doing ok now. Otherwise, we had a blast and will cherish this moment forever. Thank you for the experience.

4.5-Hour Morning Snorkel Tour with Breakfast, Lunch & Drinks from Kaanapali

Kept getting cancelled

Reviewed by: Rosa

I can’t fault the company too much for this but our outing got cancelled because of high surf so we moved it back and then that outing got cancelled for high surf. It’s a little frustrating because we try to schedule all of our plans for the day in the same area so this really threw off our plans on two separate days. It may have been useful to get a warning on the second rebooking that there was a decent chance that the boat could get cancelled again. I do understand safety is priority and as someone with no boating experience, I really don’t know how far out a high surf can be predicted. But overall, we’re pretty disappointed. I wouldn’t recommend booking boats that leave from Lahaina.

Ocean Encounters Manta Ray Snorkel Tour - Sunset & Moonlight Cruise from Kona

Not great!

Reviewed by: Unknown

It was OK. Nothing was explained well. Water was cold and did not expect to be hanging by the side of board for half hour to watch them coming at you! Very inconvenient, cold and ill-explained activity. Although staff was helpful. Wished they listened to the individual difficulties to understand. Could have enjoyed better with help.

Everyone was kind! 皆さん親切でした!

Reviewed by: HAPPY

I participated in the morning session. The sea was emerald green and very beautiful! I was surprised at how deep and cold it was at first. I tried kayaking and stand-up paddleboarding for the first time, and it was really fun. Although I couldn't see the sandy beach due to timing, I had a great time overall.

午前中の部に参加しました。
海はエメラルドグリーンでとても綺麗でした!思ったよりも深くて冷たくて最初驚きました。カヤックやSUP?を初めてしましたが、とても面白かったです。サンドバーとはいえ、時間的に砂浜の箇所は見れませんでしたが、満喫できました。

Reviewed by: chi

They also provide snorkeling, and they offer free mini floaties suitable for 2-year-old children. There are staff members who understand Japanese, which is reassuring.

The kids were very satisfied! Light snacks are included, and there are restrooms on the boat. The weather and everything else was perfect. I would love to participate again when I come to Hawaii with friends next time!

シュノーケリングも付いてるし、浮き輪も子供2歳の子が乗れるミニ浮き輪も無料で貸してくれるし、日本語分かるスタッフもちゃんと居てくれてるので安心。

子供たちも凄く満足していました❗軽食も☕付いてるし、⛴️にはトイレも付いています、天気も何もかも最高でした。また次回友達とハワイに来たら参加したいです
