This time, we all went to Hawaii for my wedding, with friends and family joining us.
However, the sandbar did not appear...
We miscalculated the timing.
We went from morning until noon.
With this timing, we had to leave before the tide went out.
Since we had a little one with us, we planned to leave early, but it's better to stay until the afternoon!
When we stayed until the afternoon, we were able to see it!!
It's really beautiful when you can see it☆
今回は私の結婚式でみんなでハワイに行き、友達も私の家族もいてみんなで行きました。
しかし、サンドバーは現れず…
時間帯に失敗しました。
私たちが行ったのは朝からお昼まで。
この時間帯だと水が引ける前に帰ることになります。
チビがいたから早めに帰るプランにしましたが、昼過ぎまでいたほうがいいです!
昼過ぎまでいた時は見れました!!
見れるととても綺麗ですよ☆

I was able to see a sea turtle while snorkeling. It is said that for every sea turtle you see, something happy happens. During the snorkeling, I was able to take photos with a waterproof camera, and there was a cheerful atmosphere throughout as participants and staff took pictures for each other.
シュノーケル中にウミガメが泳いでいるのを見ることができました。ウミガメが1匹見るごとに1つ幸せなことが起きるといわれているそうです。シュノーケル中に防水カメラで写真が撮ることができ、参加者同士やスタッフの方に写真を撮ってもらうなど、終始にこやかな雰囲気でした。

The weather was absolutely perfect. I got to see sea turtles, and snorkeling was amazing. The hamburger was delicious too. They lend you snorkeling gear, but I should have brought my own! There were a lot of fish, but the water was a bit murky, so Okinawa might be clearer. However, the guide was really nice!
天気が最高によかった。ウミガメも見れたし、シュノーケルが最高。ご飯もハンバーガー美味しかった。シュノーケルは貸してもらえるけど自分の持っていけばよかった!魚もたくさんいたけど、海は少し濁ってたから、沖縄の方が綺麗かも。。だけど、ガイドさんも素敵なかんじだった!!

It was a very nice day, so it felt really good to go. The water was about knee-deep to waist-deep. I didn't expect much from the barbecue lunch, but it was surprisingly delicious, and I went back for seconds.
とても天気がいい日にいけたのでようでとても気持ちよかったです。
膝下の深さから、腰ぐらいの深さでした。

I participated in Heaven's Sea with high expectations, and I was completely satisfied! I had researched the tide in advance, so I knew it would be high tide, and after landing on the sandbar, I didn't have to worry about the rising water level. More than that, we were blessed with great weather, and I could feel the blue of the sky and the blue of the sea all around me. The tour ended in the blink of an eye. Fun times always seem to fly by, right? (laughs) During the tour, I was also able to see a honu! I definitely want to go back to Heaven's Sea.
かなり期待をして参加した天国の海、もう大満足でした!潮位も予め調べて参加したので、満ち潮であることも調査済みでしたので、サンドバーに上陸後、水位が上がってきても気にすることはありませんでした。それよりも、天気に恵まれ、空の青、海の青を全身で感じることが出来、ツアーはあっという間に終わりました。楽しい時間はすぐに終わってしまいますね笑
ツアー中はホヌにも会うことが出来ました!天国の海、是非また行きたいです。

On the bus heading to the sandbar, a cheerful older man was talking non-stop in English, so it might be tough for those who are not good at English. Since the air conditioning was very strong, I think it's a good idea to bring something to wear over your clothes.
As for the sandbar... I had imagined it based on the photos on the website, but in reality, the water came up to about my waist. I guess it's my fault for not knowing that was a possibility.
The BBQ lunch was just a regular hamburger. It was quite ordinary.
I think I saw about two sea turtles?
For snorkeling, they took us to a place with coral and said, "Please feel free to swim." The weather was bad and it was very cold.
I was disappointed because I had high expectations. I felt it was a waste to spend a whole day like this. If the weather had been good, it might have been different.
サンドバーへ向かうバスの中は、陽気なおじさんがひたすら英語でしゃべっていたので、英語が苦手な方はつらいかも?クーラーガンガンなので、羽織るものを持っていくとよいと思います。
サンドバーは。。。HPに掲載されている写真をイメージしていましたが、実際は腰の辺りまで海面がきていました。その可能性があること知らなかった自分が悪いですね。
BBQランチはただのハンバーガーです。至って普通です。
ウミガメは2頭ぐらい見えたかな?って感じです。
シュノーケリングも、サンゴのある所に連れて行ってくれて、「どうぞ自由に泳いでください」みたいな感じです。天気も悪く、とても寒かったです。
期待しすぎた分、がっかりしました。私は、これで一日がつぶれるのはもったいないと感じました。天気が良ければ違ったかもしれませんね。

I participated with my 80-year-old mother. The guides were really kind and carried my mother to the sandbar. Thank you very much. Since the weather can change quickly, it's good to have something to cover up with, as well as an umbrella or raincoat. Bring a swimsuit, shorts, beach sandals, and a hotel towel. You can get on the bus just as you are on the way back. The snorkeling time is quite short, so it's best to think of it as just a little experience. You can see sea turtles and take photos at the sandbar, making for a really enjoyable half-day.
80才の母と参加しました。ガイドさんたちが本当に親切で、母を抱えてサンドバーまで連れてきてくれました。ありがとうございました。天候が変わりやすいので何かはおるものと傘か合羽があると良いです。水着に短パン、ビーチサンダル、ホテルのタオル。帰りはそのままバスに乗り込めます。シュノーケルの時間はほんの少しなので、体験程度と思った方が良いです。ウミガメを見たりサンドバーで写真を撮ったり、なかなか楽しい半日が過ごせますよ。

The day we arrived at the sandbar was just at low tide, so we were able to stay for about two hours. We snorkeled and took photos. We were also able to see honu (sea turtles) nearby. I had seen it in commercials and had always wanted to visit, and it was indeed a beautiful place, just as I expected. I think it's a good idea to check the tide schedule before booking a tour.
サンドバーにあがったその日はちょうど干潮でしたので2時間くらい滞在することができました。シュノーケルしたり写真を撮ったり。近くではホヌ(海がめ)を見ることもできました。CMでも見たことがあって、一度は行ってみたいと思っていましたが、予想通りほんとに綺麗な場所でした。ツアーに参加予約される前に潮の干満を調べておいた方が良いと思います。

Last year, I couldn't participate due to being fully booked because I applied at the last minute, but this year I made a reservation about two months in advance and was looking forward to it. The weather on the day was decent. I arrived with high hopes of what the heavenly sea would be like. The sandbar had water up to my knees. However, this was unavoidable due to the tide... I was expecting to see something during the next snorkeling session, but I found myself wondering what they wanted to show us at a point where we just lined up with masks and no fins, going back and forth a bit before it ended. I was left thinking that Hawaii is really not a place to play in the sea.
去年は間際の申し込みで満員のため果たせず、今年は約2ヶ月前に予約し楽しみにして参加しました。当日の天気はまずまず。さあ天国の海はどんな風かと期待に胸を膨らませ 到着。サンドバーは膝ぐらいまでの水の下。しかしこれも潮位のことでやむを得ない...。次のシュノーケリングで何かを...と期待していたけれどここで何を見せたいの?と思うポイントをマスクのみフィンなしで行列して少し往復しておしまい。???と思わせる海中の景色にハワイはやっぱり海で遊ぶところではないと深ーく思った次第です。
Thank you for joining the tour the other day. The ocean view shows various expressions depending on the day. Please come back to experience the beautiful Hawaiian sea again! Mahalo!

I was worried because it was early in the morning, but surprisingly, it was fine. I took a bus for about 45 minutes to the port, and after a 10-minute boat ride, we arrived at the sandbar. The short boat ride meant I didn't get seasick and was able to enjoy it fully. I had planned to go snorkeling, but unfortunately, it was canceled that day due to faster waves than usual. I hope to participate again next time and enjoy snorkeling. The excitement of standing on the sandbar is something you have to experience to understand. I'm glad I participated.
早朝なので心配していたのですが、意外に大丈夫でした。港まで45分位バスに乗り、10分位の乗船でサンドバーに着きました。短い乗船なので船酔いする事もなく十分楽しめました。シュノーケリングをする予定だったのですが、その日はいつもより波が速いとの事で中止になり残念でした。次回はまたぜひ参加してシュノーケリングを楽しめればと思います。サンドバーに立った時の感激は経験してみないとわかりません。参加して良かったと思っています。

This was my second time in Hawaii, and I experienced snorkeling for the first time on this tour.
I must say, the quality at this price is exceptional—wonderful sea, food, and time management. There are Japanese staff members present, and there are restrooms on the boat. Drinks are free, and alcohol, including beer and wine, is all $5, payable on the spot.
When sea turtles appear, the staff shouts, "Look at 9 o'clock! 3 o'clock! 1 o'clock!" as they briefly come up for air. I saw many of them too!
Moreover, this is the sea of Sandbar, where my favorite movie Top Gun, starring Tom Cruise, was filmed, as well as scenes from Pirates of the Caribbean. It was truly moving. I highly recommend it.
As the season changes, it can get a bit chilly. A jacket or something similar is essential, and there are warm drinks available. You can return to the hotel in your swimsuit!
This is a half-day optional tour, and it starts early but is very satisfying overall. Thank you very much!

I visited with my 2 and 5-year-old children. The weather was nice, but the water depth at the sandbar was up to my chest, so it was disappointing that we couldn't see the sandy beach sandbar. There was also an incident where the boat's engine broke down, but the staff made a great effort to keep the atmosphere lively, which I appreciated.
Since the water was deep, I had to carry the kids the whole time. The enjoyment really changes with the water depth, so I think it's important to check the low tide online and consider going when there's a higher chance of the sandbar being exposed. Also, it gets cold on the bus and after coming out of the sea, so a jacket and towel are essential!

天気は良かったのですが、サンドバーでは水深ご胸まであったので砂浜のサンドバーが見れず残念。船のエンジンが故障するアクシデントもありましたが、スタッフの皆さんが一生懸命盛り上げようとしてくれて好感が持てました。
水深が深かったので、子供はずっと抱っこでした。水深によって楽しさが変わるので、ネットで干潮を調べてサンドバーが出る可能性が高い時の参加を検討すべきだと思います。またバスの中と海から出た後は寒いので、上着とタオルは必需品です!

After about 40 minutes of being jostled on the bus early in the morning, we boarded a boat from a port-like area and enjoyed sea turtle watching while basking in the morning sun! The guide's explanations were not only easy to understand but also entertaining! Whenever a sea turtle surfaced, the guide would let us know, allowing us to see many turtles. However, since the turtles only appear on the surface for a few seconds, it can be a bit challenging to take photos from the boat.
After watching the sea turtles, we arrived at a sandbar. The scenery was indescribably mysterious! It was hard to tell whether it was the sea or land, shallow or deep... It felt as if we had wandered into an uninhabited island, surrounded by endless sea and mountains. We had about 40 minutes of free time here, so we swam a little, went snorkeling, and enjoyed the view from the boat before breakfast.
To be honest, I didn't have high expectations for breakfast, but the sandwiches we ate in nature tasted exceptional. It was like having homemade rice balls in the mountains during a hike in Japan. I completely forgot about everything else and felt so liberated. This was the first time I experienced such a wonderful morning.
It seems that the water level varies depending on the day, so I definitely want to participate in this tour again. It's worth it even if you have to wake up early!
朝早くからバスで揺られること40分前後・・・
港のような所から船に乗り、朝の陽射しを浴びながら、ウミガメウォッチング!!
ガイドさんの説明もわかりやすいうえに面白い!!
ウミガメが水面に這い上がってくると、ガイドさんが逐一教えてくださるので、沢山のウミガメを見ることができました。
しかし、ウミガメが水面に姿を現すのは数秒のことなので、船からだと撮影するのは少し難しいです。
ウミガメを見てサンドバーに到着。
何とも言えぬ不思議な景色!!
海なのか陸なのか、浅瀬なのか沖なのか・・・
無人島に迷い込んでしまったかのような錯覚に陥りそうなほどの、果てしない海。そして山。
ここでは40分程の自由行動があったので、軽く泳いだりシュノーケリングをしたり、船からの景色を楽しみ、いざ朝食。
朝食は正直言って期待していませんでしたが、自然のなかで食べるサンドイッチは絶品に思えました。
日本で言うとハイキングの途中で、山の中で食べる手作りのおにぎりといったところでしょうか。
日頃のことはすべて忘れて、開放的になりましたね。
こんなに素敵な朝を迎えたのは初めてです。
日によって水位が違うみたいなので、是非また参加したいと思えるツアーでした。
朝が早くても行く価値ありです!!

The pickup was at 9:25 in front of the hotel, but it was 20 minutes late. I was a bit anxious waiting for the first optional tour, thinking that maybe it wouldn't come since there were so many people around.
I chose the day when the water would be shallowest during my stay, but the water level was just below my knees. I was disappointed that I couldn't see the sandbar! However, the weather was nice, and after practicing snorkeling, we had lunch. We enjoyed delicious hamburgers before heading to the coral area. There were lots of fish, and I was lucky enough to see a sea turtle up close. We had an hour of snorkeling time, and my wife also enjoyed snorkeling without getting back on the boat. Time flew by, and we had a really fun time.

There was a little time for snorkeling, but the visibility wasn't great. Since I was with my 8-year-old daughter, the nearly 30 minutes of snorkeling time was just right.

I had participated in a morning tour twice before, but I was drawn to this tour because of the BBQ lunch and snorkeling at the coral reef. We spent about an hour at the sandbar, including lunchtime, and then moved to the snorkeling spot for about another hour, enjoying the incredibly beautiful sea. The day I participated was sunny, and with the high temperatures of midsummer, the water was warm, so I didn't feel cold even after being in the sea for a long time. However, during cooler seasons, it might be tough on the body. I believe there was also a wetsuit rental service available.
The BBQ burgers grilled on the boat were very delicious. You can choose from about three types of juice, including cola and lemonade. On the way back, when I started to feel cold, I enjoyed some hot cocoa. My mother, who just turned sixty, was also very satisfied with the tour. I highly recommend giving it a try!
午前のみのツアーに2回参加したことがありましたが、BBQランチとサンゴ礁でのシュノーケリングに惹かれ、こちらのツアーを申し込みました。ランチタイムを含めサンドバーで約一時間、それからシュノーケリングのスポットへ移動して約一時間、十分過ぎるほど美しい海を堪能しました。参加した日は晴れ、また真夏の高い気温で水温は温かく、長時間海にいても寒くなることはなかったのですが、気温が下がる時期は体に堪えるかもしれません。たしかウェットスーツの貸出サービスもあったと思います。
船の上で焼いてくれるBBQバーガーもとても美味しかったです。ジュースはコーラ・レモネードなど三種類くらいから選べます。帰り道、体が冷えてくる頃にはホットココアを頂きました。還暦を迎えた母も大満足のツアーでした。是非お試しあれ!

It was an amazing experience and a wonderful memory! From the morning pickup, the Japanese guide was waiting for us, which made us feel at ease. There is a port about a 50-minute drive from Waikiki, and we departed from there by boat! We arrived at the sandbar while seeing many sea turtles. We enjoyed taking photos and snorkeling. Since it is also a bay famous for being a movie filming location, the guide provided various explanations, which made it enjoyable. The sandwich we had on the way back on the boat was delicious too.

I checked the tide levels and times in advance to participate in the sandbar, and the water was about knee-deep in shallow areas. The water is clear. The wind was so strong that we couldn't set up the beach ball net on the sandbar. There are several staff members, so it's easy to get someone to take photos for you. On the day I participated, the wind was really strong, making snorkeling difficult, and there weren't many types of fish. Although we had an hour of free time, we couldn't stay in the water for that long. It was September 29, and the water temperature was quite low, so it might be better to wear a wetsuit in the future. The bus ride to and from the location was quite chilly. After snorkeling, there was a boat ride back to shore that took just under 30 minutes, and it was really cold. The men were shivering. Our boat had a cabin in the back, so we went inside to escape the wind, but most people were sitting where they first boarded and were exposed to the wind, so I recommend moving seats on the way back. The staff were cheerful and casually asked if we were okay.
サンドバーは、あらかじめ干潮時の水位と時間を調べて参加したのですが、浅いところで膝下くらいでした。水はキレイです。風が強くてサンドバーではビーチボールのネットがはれない位です。スタッフさんは数名居るので写真撮ってもらうのには困りません。参加日はとにかく風が強くてシュノーケルもやりにくいし、魚はそんなたくさん種類居ません。1時間自由時間ですが、そんな長時間ははいってられませんでした。9/29でしたが水温も結構低いので、この先はウエットスーツを着た方がいいかも。行き帰りのバスは相当冷えます。シュノーケルが終わってから岸まで船移動も30分弱有りますがすごく寒いです。男性もガタガタ震えていました。私たちの船は後方が部屋になっているので、中に入って風をしのぎましたが、大半の方は最初に乗り込んだ所の位置で、風を浴びていましたので、帰りは席移動をお勧めします。スタッフさんは明るくて困ってないか色々気さくに聞いてくれました。

The weather was cloudy and the water level was up to my waist, which was a bit different from the sandbar I saw in the pictures, but the staff were fun and kind, making it an enjoyable experience.
I was moved to see sea turtles and beautiful fish up close while snorkeling.
Next time, I want to participate again on a sunny day.
天気は曇っていて水位も腰まであり写真で見ていたサンドバーとは少し違いましたが、スタッフの皆さんが面白く親切で楽しかったです。
シュノーケリングで泳いだ海はウミガメやキレイなお魚をすぐそばで見れて感動しました。
今度はお天気のいい日にまた参加したいです。
Aloha! Thank you for the beautiful photos of the ocean in Hawaii. Please come back to join us on another tour. Mahalo!
アロハ!ハワイの美しい海の中の写真ありがとうございます。
またツアーに遊びに来て下さいね。Mahalo!

I participated because I wondered if I could make it in time for low tide according to the schedule. The reviews were very positive, so my expectations might have been too high. The bus left 45 minutes after the meeting time, which made me feel distrustful of the tour due to the "island time" vibe...
The staff were friendly, and the hamburger was tastier than I expected. However, I didn't see the sandy beach as mentioned in the guidebook. The water level was at its lowest, only up to my knees.
Would I recommend it to my friends? Unfortunately, I cannot recommend it.
タイムスケジュールから、干潮の時間に間に合うかな?と思い参加しました。口コミもとても評判が良かったので期待が大きすぎたのかもしれません。バスが集合時間の45分後に出発するなど南国時間過ぎてツアーへの不信感が.....
スタッフの方はフレンドリーでしたし、ハンバーガーも想像より美味しかったです。ただし、ガイドブックにあるような砂浜は見られません。一番水位低くて膝下です。
お友達に薦めるか?と言うと残念ながらオススメはできません。
Thank you very much for participating in the tour. However, I sincerely apologize for not being able to provide you with satisfactory service.
Upon confirming with the operating company regarding this matter, I learned that the shuttle vehicle broke down on the day of the tour, which caused a delay in arranging a replacement vehicle. As a result, you had to wait for 45 minutes without any explanation about the situation, and I am truly sorry for causing you any anxiety.
Regarding the water level at the sandbar, as you had previously researched, there may be times when the beach is not visible due to the tides. I hope you can understand this.
Based on your valuable feedback, we will strive to provide even more satisfactory service in the future, so we appreciate your continued support. Thank you very much for taking the time to share your experience with us.

We left early in the morning and were able to return to the hotel by mid-morning, which allowed us to go sightseeing afterward.
From the boat, we were able to see not only sea turtles but also manta rays.
My 77-year-old mother and I didn't go snorkeling, but just enjoying the view from the boat was very pleasant.
My husband and the children, who went snorkeling, were satisfied with seeing beautiful fish.
The shuttle bus was very cold, as mentioned in the reviews, but when we asked them to turn off the air conditioning, they did.
The return bus was comfortable.
早朝出発で午前中にホテルに帰ることができたので、その後も観光に出かけることができました。
ボートからウミガメだけでなくマンタも見ることができました。
私と77歳の母はシュノーケリングをしませんでしたが、ボートの上で景色を眺めているだけでも気持ちが良かったです。
シュノーケリングをした夫と子どもたちはキレイな魚を見ることができて満足していました。
迎えのバスは、口コミであったように大変寒かったですが、途中でエアコンを止めて欲しいと頼むと止めてくれました。
帰りのバスは快適でした。

The sandbar in Hawaii is definitely a place you want to visit at least once. The weather was cloudy, and although it was March, it was a bit chilly. Once you get in the water, you get used to it, but it felt quite cold when you got back on land.
It should take about 1 hour and 30 minutes by bus from Honolulu, but it took over 2 hours due to delays from picking up other tour guests, which was tough.
That said, I was very satisfied with the tour! Especially during the sea turtle watching, we unexpectedly saw a group of manta rays, which was a surprise! The guide mentioned it was quite rare, and the manta rays appeared before the sea turtles, leaving everyone on the tour looking puzzled.
The hamburger for lunch was also very delicious! 😊
ハワイで一度は行ってみたいであろうサンドバー。当日の天気は曇りで、3月でしたが、やや肌寒かったです。いったん水に浸かれば慣れますが、また陸に上がると結構冷えました。
ホノルルからはバスで1時間30分くらいのはずですが、往路で他のツアー客のピックアップに時間がかかって2時間以上かかったのが辛かったです。。
何はともあれ、ツアーの内容は大満足!特にウミガメウォッチの時に偶然マンタの群れを見ることが出来、ビックリしました!ガイドさんもかなり珍しいと言われていたのですが、ウミガメより先にマンタが登場して、ツアー客はみんな??って顔をしてましたけど笑
昼食のハンバーガーも大変美味しく頂きました(^^)

On the morning of the day, unfortunately, it was cloudy. There was a hurricane around Oahu, and it had rained heavily the day before, so I was disappointed. However, when we arrived at the sandbar, I thought, "I'm glad I came!" Although it wasn't clear skies, by midday, the weather turned into a pleasant beach day. As expected of Hawaii. The guide mentioned, "If it hadn't rained the day before, it would have been even more beautiful," but I was more than satisfied with the experience. I want to go again on a sunny day. The crew members were all friendly and made me feel at ease.
当日朝は、あいにくの曇り空。オアフ島周辺にハリケーンがあり、前日も大雨で今回は残念‥と思っていました。
しかし、サンドバーに着いた時には「来て良かった!」と思うことができました。快晴では無かったのですが、昼近くになるとカラッとした海日和となりました。さすがハワイ。
ガイドのお姉さんは「前日の雨がなければ、もっと綺麗だよ。」とおっしゃったのですが、十分満足出来る内容でした。次は快晴の日に行きたいです。
クルーの方は皆さん気さくで安心感がありました。
