I chose the morning plan without checking the tides, so I ended up being submerged in the sea up to my chest and couldn't see the sandbar. If you want to see the sandbar, I think it's better to check the tides beforehand. Once we got to the sandbar, we were able to enjoy activities like snorkeling and stand-up paddleboarding freely, which was fun. The staff members who spoke Japanese shared unique stories with us. You can get donuts on the boat heading to the sandbar, but if you plan to get them later, they might run out, so I recommend getting them at the beginning.
潮汐を調べずに午前プランを選択してしまったので、サンドバーは見られずに胸元くらいまで海に浸かっている状態でした。サンドバーを見たい場合は、事前に潮汐を調べてから行ったほうがいいと思います。サンドバーについてからは、シュノーケルやサップなど自由に過ごすことができ、楽しめました。日本語を話してくださるスタッフの方々がユニークにお話してくださいます。サンドバーに向かう船の中でドーナツがもらえますが、後でもらおうと思っていると無くなりますので、初めにもらうといいと思います。

From start to finish, this was one of the best experiences on the island as far as tours go. We got to the parking lot and we asked some locals where to go, and they directed us to the boat, which was at the very end of the dock. When we got in the folks working on the boat were very professional and welcoming. They have live music playing, and that was excellent as well. There was plenty of seating and they had complementary water, a juice, and donuts. They also had snacks for purchase and beer. There was restrooms on the boat and lifejackets. We were given clear instructions as to what activities we could do and for that price it was great. You could kayak you could do stand-up paddleboard you could snorkel or you could pay extra to do the banana boats or the bumper boats, but I think you had to sign up for those prior to going on the trip out. The whole family had fun and we were all able to try everything with the allotted amount of time that we were out on the water. It was a great experience overall, and we recommend it to all the families that visit Oahu.

I was filled with anxiety on my first overseas trip, but there were people who spoke Japanese, so I had no problems at all.
I had a great time on the banana boat and bumper tube, teetering on the edge of falling off! Both activities required wearing life jackets, which made me feel safe.
During snorkeling, I also wore a life jacket and just swam on the surface, but at the snorkeling spot, I was thrilled to see two sea turtles and lots of small fish welcoming me! While touching the sea turtles is not allowed, you can get close enough to take pictures with your smartphone! Just be cautious of seasickness as the boat sways constantly. Also, it was just us, but after we finished, I was so cold that my body was shaking, so if you're worried, it's best to prepare a jacket or a bath towel to keep warm.
There was about a 30 to 40-minute wait from the pickup to the start, and after finishing the banana boat and bumper tube, there was a little over an hour before snorkeling, so you can grab a meal at nearby restaurants during that time.
For changing clothes, there was something like a changing room for one person, and there were two lockable restrooms where you could change. However, I just dried off with a towel without changing, and no one said anything while providing transportation.
Tips are given to different drivers for each boat, so after finishing the banana boat and bumper tube, you give a tip to that driver, and after snorkeling, you give a tip to the snorkeling guide.

I stayed at a hotel near Kuhio Beach. I changed into my swimsuit at the hotel and took The Bus to get there. There were no particular landmarks at the meeting point, but staff appeared as the time approached. The staff spoke only English. It was a good decision to come in my swimsuit instead of changing there. The meeting point was in front of the restroom, but it was unavailable. There was a restroom on the yacht.
I took motion sickness medication based on other people's reviews, and none of my family of six experienced seasickness. The yacht, with its pink sails against the blue sky, was very beautiful. There were two staff members, who might have been brothers. They were cheerful and very kind. I was a bit anxious about not understanding English, but I felt at ease.
Since I can't swim, I borrowed a life jacket. During snorkeling, we were guided to a spot where we could see sea turtles. There is a rule that you must not approach within one meter, and if you accidentally get too close, you will be stopped. There were many beautiful fish, and I could have watched them forever. After snorkeling, before heading back to the port, we went a little east, allowing us to enjoy the beautiful scenery.

There is no shower, and you will need to air dry. Since you can't get on the bus while wet, I dried off a bit and put on a T-shirt or a resort dress before getting on the bus. It's also better to use

The live music was fun while traveling on the boat to The Sandbar and the donuts were fresh and good. The tubing was an absolute blast! The banana boat was not as fun as the tubing and my wife fell off although we did see sea turtles while on the banana boat. We would definitely do the tubing again. The snorkeling was fun with lots of fish swimming right in front of my face and a coral reef below you while you float on your stomach. The board you can stand on or kneel on and paddle was interesting and challenging. They also had kayaks but everybody wanted to use the boards. Playing volleyball with multiple people out in the water was fun and they also had other toys like footballs and water guns but nobody really used them. Just swimming in the middle of the ocean while standing on the sandbar was a blast. The sandwiches on the way home we're also fresh and good. The only thing that could make this better was if the boat did not have a roof so we can feel the breeze and fresh air while traveling out to The Sandbar. Overall I would definitely recommend this and do it again!

I participated in the second tour. The weather was amazing, the guide was fantastic, and it was a very enjoyable time. After we arrived at the point, we started playing in the water, but during lunch, the tide was high, so even at a shallow point, I, being 153 cm tall, could barely touch the bottom. It's definitely important to check the tides. After playing for a while, we went snorkeling, but about half of the group stayed on the boat.
2便に参加しました。お天気サイコー、ガイドさんもサイコーで、とても楽しいひとときでした。ポイントについた後、水遊び開始ですが、お昼は満潮近く水位が高かったので、浅瀬のポイントでも153cmの私でやっと足がつくかつかないか、でした。やっぱり潮の満ち引きは要チェックです。しばし遊んだ後シュノーケリングでしたが、半分くらいの方は船上に残っていました。
After it's over, there aren't many places to change. Since there are only three public restrooms, after finishing, I have to wrap myself in a towel while still wet and get into the car.
終わった後、着替える場所があまりありません。公衆トイレは3部屋のみのなので終わった後は濡れたままタオルで包んで車に乗り込みます。

We participated as a couple in our 60s. There was no anxiety because the Japanese staff member, Takako, kindly taught us everything. Once on board, we were served juice, bread, and fruit, and then we set off. At Molokini Island, we snorkeled in the beautiful sea, and during the transfer to a spot where we could see turtles, lunch was served. We had the choice of a hamburger or a hot dog. We were able to see turtles as well, and we were very satisfied.

I participated in this tour for the first time in seven years. This time, I snorkeled for the first time, and I was so moved that I regretted not doing it before. I was lucky enough to encounter many fish and even saw sea turtles multiple times, which I thought would be a rare occurrence. After getting out of the water, it gets chilly, so I recommend bringing extra beach towels. There were also warm drinks available, which was very helpful. Above all, I was so happy to see our guide, Jamie, again! I definitely want to participate again when I come to Hawaii.

We utilized the afternoon plan for a family of four, including our elementary school-aged son and daughter. We drove to the meeting point with a rental car, and from there, it took about 20 minutes by boat. On the boat, we enjoyed lunch (croissant sandwiches, etc.) and drinks while taking in the scenery. After finishing our meal, we arrived offshore shortly after.
When I went, the water depth was just enough for an adult like me to stand a little, rather than being at a sandbar.
Once offshore, we enjoyed kayaking and stand-up paddleboarding, which thrilled the kids. During snorkeling, I was able to see many fish even as a beginner when diving in areas with coral. Additionally, there were about 4-5 staff members nearby at all times, so I felt comfortable letting the little ones play.
We also reserved a banana boat as an option, but due to some waves that day, we switched to a banana boat. The kids enjoyed the thrill of being towed at a decent speed, and we were amazed when a large sea turtle came right next to the boat. It was much bigger than the sea turtles we saw in Haleiwa Bay, and when I asked the staff, they mentioned that this area has few predators, allowing them to grow larger.
The tour lasted just under four hours, from around 12 PM to 4 PM, and there were staff members who spoke Japanese, making it a reassuring experience for those who are not confident in English.
I participated in the afternoon session with about 20 people in six groups. I noticed that there were significantly more participants in the morning session, likely more than double. If it’s less crowded, I think you can enjoy the activities for a longer time, so the impression may vary depending on how busy it is.
小学生の息子・娘を含む家族4人で午後プランを利用しました。
集合場所まではレンタカーで行き、そこから船で約20分、船中はランチ(クロワッサンサンド等)や飲み物がついているのでそれを食べながら風景を楽しみ、食べ終わって少しすると沖に到着。
ちなみに私が行った時はサンドバーではなく、大人の自分が水中で少し足がつくかな、くらいの水深でした。
沖ではカヤックやSUPが楽しめ子供たちも大喜び。スノーケリングでは珊瑚がある場所で潜ると素人の私でもたくさんの魚を見ることができました。
またスタッフが4-5名は随時近くに居てくれるので、多少小さな子がいても安心して遊ばせることができると思いました。
また、オプションでバンパーボートを予約したのですが、この日は波が少しあったので当日バナナボートに変更、そこそこのスピードで牽引され子供たちもスリルを楽しんだほか、大きなウミガメがボートのすぐ横まで寄ってきて感動しました。
ハレイワ湾で見たウミガメよりもだいぶ大きく、スタッフに聞いたところこの辺りは外敵が少ないため、大きく成長できるんだとか。
12時過ぎから16時ころまで4時間弱、楽しむことができるツアーで、参加中も日本語が話せるスタッフもいたので、英語が得意でない方にも安心して参加できるツアーだと思います。
私が参加したのは午後で6組で20名ちょっとくらいが参加、当日の午前のツアーで下船された方は非常に多く倍以上は参加者がいたのではと思います。空いているとアクティビティも楽しめる時間が長くなると思うので、混み具合で多少印象は変わるかもしれません。
It might be a good idea to have a long-sleeved layer, as it can get chilly on the round-trip boat ride depending on the day. I think the tour itself can be enjoyed safely, even with elementary school-
往復の船中は日によっては冷える場合があるかもしれないので、長袖の羽織るものが1枚あるとよいかもしれません。
ツアー自体は小学生くらいのお子さんが一緒でも安心して楽しむことができると思います。

It was great that it was sunny this year after two consecutive years of cloudy weather. When it's sunny, the water is beautiful and I could see the turtles well. Unfortunately, the white sandy beach didn't appear, but I was happy to find Jamie, who took care of us last year, on the neighboring boat! This year, I was moved to see a large turtle, about the size of three adults, swimming gracefully up close! Anyway, the crew members teach us various things in Japanese, so there's nothing to worry about. It gets cold after coming out of the sea, so it's a good idea to wrap yourself in a towel you brought from the hotel. Thank you, Izumi!
2年連続曇りだったので、今年は晴れて良かった。やっぱり晴れていると水も綺麗で亀さん達も良く見えた。残念ながら白い砂浜は出現しなかったけど、去年お世話になったジェイミーも隣の船で発見して嬉しかった!今年は大人3人分くらいの大きな亀が優雅に泳いでて間近で見れて感動!とにかくクルーの方が日本語で細かく色々な事を教えてくれるので何も困らない。海から上がったら寒いのでホテルから持参したタオルを巻いて凌ぐといいね。イズミありがとう!
It's a good idea to take 1 to 2 bath towels per person from the hotel. Since it can be cold inside the shuttle bus, it's advisable to use the restroom before boarding and prepare something warm to wea
ホテルから1人1〜2枚のバスタオルを持っていくと良いですね。送迎バスの中は寒いので乗る前にはトイレを済ませて上に羽織れるものを準備すると良いですね。

This is my second time participating, and last time the water was knee-deep, but this time it was up to my neck. There was live music on the boat the whole time, and the atmosphere was very nice. The boat also had a restroom, which was reassuring.
2回目の参加ですが、前回は膝くらいの深さで
今回は首までの深さがありました
船の中はずっと生演奏があり、とても雰囲気が良かったです
船にはトイレもあり、安心です
I think it would be great if I could go when the tide is low and the island appears.
干潮の時間を調べて運良く島になる時に行けたら最高だと思います
Aloha Kokomama,
Thank you for joining us for the second time and for your wonderful review! 🌺 We also appreciate you sharing the lovely photos of your experience.
I'm glad to hear that you enjoyed the live music and atmosphere, even though the water was only up to your neck this time. Thank you for your valuable comments regarding the low tide. The condition of the sandbar changes daily, so we hope you can see it appear like an island on your next visit.
We all look forward to seeing you again!

At the first point, we didn't encounter any manta rays, so we moved to a spot where we could meet them while holding onto the pole. Then, illuminated by the light, a manta ray appeared beautifully as if it was glowing. It was truly breathtaking. After that, it seemed like the manta was greeting us, spinning around and opening its mouth wide to suck in plankton, which excited us every time we saw it. The water temperature was a bit low, and by the time we returned to the boat, we were shivering. However, we received hot chocolate on the boat, which warmed up both our salty mouths and cold bodies a little. Thanks to the Japanese guide's attentiveness, we were able to enjoy the tour without any worries. Thank you very much. I would definitely recommend this experience to anyone visiting the Big Island.
最初のポイントではマンタは現れなかったので、私達はポールにつかまったままマンタに遭遇できるポイントまで移動。すると光に照らされてまるでマンタが光っている様に美しく登場しました。大感激です。その後も挨拶でもしてくれてるかの様にクルクルと回転したり、口を大きく開けてプランクトンを吸い込んでいる様子がみれて、その度に大興奮でした。水温が少し低くて船に戻る頃にはガタガタ震えてしまいましたが、船でホットチョコのドリンクを貰い塩っぱい口の中も寒い体も少し温まりました。日本語ガイドの方が気を配って頂いたので何も不安なくツアーを楽しめました。ありがとうございました。ハワイ島に行く方には、是非参加する様勧めたいと思います。
Since we will be leaving in the evening, we can also enjoy the sunset. It will be cold once we get on the boat, so I definitely think a large towel is necessary.
夕方に出るので夕日も楽しめます。船に上がってからは寒いので大きなタオルは絶対いると思います。

We had an amazing catamaran experience in Waikiki! The service and attention from the crew were excellent, making us feel welcomed and well taken care of throughout the trip. The catamaran was practically brand new and very comfortable.
We went snorkeling at an incredible spot where we saw so many turtles—it was absolutely unforgettable! When we mentioned my wife was from Puerto Rico, they immediately played music from there, which made the experience even more fun and personal. We truly enjoyed every moment and would do it again without a second thought. Highly recommended!

After participating in a dolphin tour on the Big Island, I thought about challenging myself with "Manta" for ten years, and I finally got to join the "Manta University Night Course." Since it was a night course, I had the image of "dark seas being scary," which made it hard for me to take the plunge. However, as I've gotten older, I thought this might be my last chance, so I decided to participate. But there was not even a hint of darkness in the sea; it was amazing to see the mantas "swimming gracefully like they were flying" and I was so moved that I was almost able to touch one.
ハワイ島のイルカツアーに参加して、次は「マイタ」に挑戦と思ってから10年、ようやく
『マンタ大学夜間部』に参加する事ができました。
夜間部という事で、『暗い海は怖い』イメージがあり、なかなか踏み出せませんでしたが、
年齢も重ね、これが最後と考え参加しましたが、暗い海という感じは1ミリもなく、マンタが
海の中を『優雅に飛ぶ様に泳ぎ』、『もう少しでマンタに触れらる』という感動で最高でした。
I am 66 years old, but this is a tour that anyone can join. If you have the opportunity to go to the Big Island, I definitely recommend this tour.
私は66歳ですが、誰でも参加できるツアーです。
ハワイ島に行く機会があれば、是非お勧めのツアーです。

There wasn't a single person who could speak Japanese, and all the participants were from overseas, but everyone was very kind and it was a lot of fun! You can also return to the boat at your own timing!
日本語が話せる人が1人もいなく、参加者も海外の方のみでしたが、とても親切で楽しかったです!
自分のタイミングで船に戻ることも可能です!

Dear Tuna,
Thank you very much for participating in the tour and for sharing your valuable feedback.
The appearance of the sandbar can change significantly depending on the tides. During low tide, the sandy beach becomes visible, while at high tide, it may be submerged. If you want to ensure a good view of the sandbar, we recommend checking the tides in advance.
On the other hand, we are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed snorkeling and stand-up paddleboarding, as well as interacting with our crew in Japanese.
Once again, thank you for your valuable advice and warm review. We hope you will join us again at a different tide level to enjoy the various expressions of the sandbar.
Mahalo,

このたびはツアーにご参加いただき、貴重なご感想をお寄せくださり誠にありがとうございます。
サンドバーの姿はその日の潮汐によって大きく変わり、干潮時には砂浜が現れ、満潮時には海中に隠れてしまうことがございます。サンドバーを確実にご覧になりたい場合は、事前に潮汐をご確認いただくことをおすすめしております。
一方で、シュノーケルやサップを楽しんでいただき、弊社の日本語でのクルーとの交流などをご満喫されたとのお声を伺い、大変嬉しく思っております。
改めまして、貴重なアドバイスと温かいレビューをありがとうございました。ぜひまた別の潮位のタイミングでもご参加いただき、異なるサンドバーの表情をお楽しみいただければ幸いです。
