All Reviews for Kaneohe Sandbar, Oahu

The tour guides were very kind, and their explanations in Japanese were very polite and interesting, making it a lot of fun! I definitely want to participate again! Thank you! ⭐︎

ツアーガイドの方たちもとても親切で、日本語での案内も大変ご丁寧でおもしろくて、すごく楽しめました！
また絶対参加させて頂きたいです！
ありがとうございました⭐︎

This time, we traveled as a family of five. To be honest, it was quite expensive when converted to Japanese yen, so I hesitated, but I had been interested in it for a while, so I decided to go for it.

When we actually went, the weather was nice, the sea was more beautiful than I expected, and the kids had a blast playing beach volleyball, diving, and snorkeling. The hamburgers we had for lunch were exceptionally delicious. We were able to enjoy a different kind of experience from the beach.

I'm glad we went.

今回5人家族での旅行。正直日本円に換算するとかなり高額になるので迷いましたが以前から気になっていたので思い切って申し込みました。
実際行ってみたら天気もよく、海が思った綺麗でビーチバレーや飛び込み、シュノーケルできて子供達も思い切り楽しめて、ランチのハンバーガーがとびきり美味しかったです。ビーチとは違った楽しみ方ができました。
行って良かったです。

The wind is strong seasonally, and it feels so cold that you shiver when coming out of the sea. The staff is very kind, and there are plenty of play equipment and swimming goods, which made me satisfied. For snorkeling, the staff takes care of you kindly, so even if you're a "non-swimmer," you can participate without any problems.

季節的に風が強く、海から上がるとぶるぶる震えるほど寒く感じる。
スタッフが大変親切、遊具や遊泳グッズも充実しており満足しました。
シュノーケリングはスタッフが優しくケアーしてくれるので”かなづち”でも問題なく参加できます。

If you're looking for entertainment, a variety of activities (snorkeling, volleyball, SUP, and kayaking), this is the way to go! It's perfect for families. We have gone both in the morning and afternoon due to the morning being booked. If possible, I recommend going in the morning due to the lower tide.

However, the staff were all extremely professional, safe, and fun. The live music was awesome and our two young daughters (3&6) have enjoyed their time they've gone out there.

Book!

The tide was high, so it was hard to fully enjoy the sandbar, but I had a great time playing with activities and meeting sea turtles. There were floaties prepared for small children who can't snorkel, as well as for adults, so even those who aren't good swimmers will be fine.

潮位が高く、サンドバーは堪能できたとはいいがたいですが、アクティビティで遊んだりウミガメに会えたり、とても楽しかったです。
シュノーケルができない、小さな子供用の浮き輪や大人用にも浮具が準備されていたので、泳ぎが苦手でも大丈夫です。

The sea was calm, and I didn't experience any seasickness at all. Snorkeling in the beautiful water felt great, but it was a bit cold for the season. The snorkeling area is somewhat limited, so if you're looking to swim more vigorously or dive deeper, you might want to consider other locations. On the other hand, it's a safe spot where even children and beginners can enjoy snorkeling without the risk of drowning, so I think you can relax and have fun. In the second half, you can freely use canoes and stand-up paddleboards. There’s no formal instruction, but it's something anyone can easily do, so overall, it feels very accessible for participation.

海は穏やかで船酔いも全く無かったです。
シュノーケルもキレイな海でいい気持でしたが、時期的に少し寒かったです。
シュノーケルはある程度決められた範囲内なので、もっとガッツリ泳ぎたかったり、潜りたい人は他の場所の方がいいかもしれません。
逆に子供でも初心者でもシュノーケルで溺れる様な場所ではないので、安心して楽しめる都思います。
後半はカヌーやサップを自由に使えて、指導とかはないですが、これも誰でも簡単に出来るので、全体を通して気軽に参加出来るイメージです。

I previously participated in a similar tour in the Maldives, and while it might have been the timing, I had a hard time seeing sea turtles. However, on this tour in late March, I was able to see over 10 sea turtles. In fact, I found two before boarding the boat at the port.

The crew was also former residents of Japan and spoke fluent Japanese, which surprised me with how fluent they were. They were all very nice, and even my shy daughter seemed to open up to them.

Thank you for providing an experience that allowed my children to snorkel with sea turtles and tropical fish, and play at the sandbar—an experience we couldn't have in Japan.

以前モルジブで同じようなツアーに参加しましたが、時期もあるかもしれませんが、ウミガメになかなか会えず大変でしたが、このツアーは三月下旬での参加でしたが、10匹以上のウミガメさんに会えました。なんなら、船に乗る前に港ですで2匹見つけました。
クルーも元日本在住で、日本語ペラペラで、流暢すぎてビックリしました。
いい人ばかりで、人見知りの娘も、心を打ち解けているようでした。
参加して、子供達にウミガメや熱帯魚とのシュノーケリング、サンドバーで遊んだりした日本では味わえない経験をさせていただき、ありがとうございました。

I've been to Hawaii several times, but this was my first time here. The weather was clear, and the ocean was beautiful, so I really enjoyed snorkeling. On the boat, there was also lovely live music, and I was able to spend a very relaxing time. The only downside was that the behavior of the local Japanese staff was harsh, which spoiled my trip. If I go again, I would like to try a different tour.

ハワイは何度か行っていますが，ここには初めて行ってみました。
晴れていたこともあり，とても海が綺麗で，シュノーケリングは堪能しました。
船上では，素敵な生演奏もあり，とてもゆったりした時間を過ごすことが出来ました。
一つだけ残念なのは，現地の日本人スタッフの言動がきつく，せっかくの旅行が台無しでした。
今度行くとしても別のツアーにしてみたいと思います。

We love this tour so much. This was our favorite day on Oahu. I loved the clear water and all the different things to do for the day!

I visited Sandbar for the first time. All the staff were very friendly and it was a lot of fun!! I tried SUP for the first time, and thanks to Sasaki-san from Saipan, who had a great sense of humor and spoke in a Kansai dialect, it was enjoyable the whole time. It became a wonderful memory! If I have the chance again, I would love to participate!

初めてサンドバーに行きました。
どのスタッフさんもとても親切で楽しかったです！！
SUPに初めてチャレンジしましたが、スタッフでサイパン出身の佐々木さん（本当？）のノリがよい関西弁のおかげで、終始とても楽しかったです。
いい思い出になりました！また機会があれば、参加したいです！

The hotel provided a shuttle service, making transportation easy, and the crew on the boat was great at engaging with us, which made it a lot of fun. At the sandbar, we were able to take beautiful photos, and while snorkeling, we saw a sleeping turtle and many colorful fish. The large coral was truly impressive. The kids also had a great time and were very happy, creating wonderful memories. The hamburgers on the boat were also very delicious.

ホテルまで送迎してくれるので移動も楽だし、船のお姉さんも話が上手くて最高に楽しかったです。
サンドバーでは綺麗な写真も撮れたし、シュノーケルでは寝ているカメを見れたり、色とりどりの魚もたくさん見れました。とっても大きい珊瑚に感動でした。
子供達も良かった！と喜んでいてとてもいい思い出になりました。船上でのハンバーガーもとても美味しかったです。

The music was fun and a nice chill day on the sand bar!!

The schedule was changed due to boat maintenance, but I'm glad I participated! The staff spoke Japanese, so I felt at ease! It was my first time doing SUP and I was reassured because they taught me how to do it.

船のメンテナンスのため、日程変更になりましたが、参加してよかったです！スタッフの人日本語できるので安心でした！sup等初めてでしたが、やり方を教えてもらえるので安心でした

All the staff members were bright and friendly, and my children were thrilled! Thank you for your care!

スタッフの方皆様､明るく親切な方ばかりで、子供も最高だったと喜んでました！
お世話になり､ありがとうございました♪

The weather was great, and the scenery was amazing. The staff was cheerful and very nice. It was good to have many activities to choose from.

It was a bit cold, so snorkeling required some preparation, but I was satisfied to see the beautiful seabed.

Thank you for your hospitality.

天気に恵まれ、風景が最高でした。
スタッフは陽気でとても素敵。
アクティビティもいくつも出来て良かった。

少し寒いのでシュノーケリングは
ちょっと覚悟が必要でしたが綺麗な海底を
みれて、満足しています。

お世話になりました。

It was a bit cold since it was the end of March. When the sun shone through the clear skies, I was amazed by the beautiful sea. It was great to take photos at the Floating Island Lounge!

3月末だったので少し寒かったです。晴れ間に太陽が差しむと、とても綺麗な海で驚きました。浮島ラウンジで写真を撮るととても良かったです!

The tour was explained thoroughly in Japanese, and I had a great time.

After the tour experience, a young child was fussy on the bus, which was quite challenging. Then... I realized my wife's smartphone was missing.

I immediately contacted the tour company, and they responded kindly via email and phone. By the next morning, it was back in our hands.

I am filled with gratitude that the precious photos from the tour were returned to us. Thank you to all the staff who worked hard to help us.

ツアーは説明も日本語でしっかり説明してくださり、とても楽しかったです。

ツアー体験後、バスの中で幼少の子供がぐずり大変でした。
そして…慌てて対応してくれた、妻のスマホがないことがわかりました。

すぐにツアー会社さんに連絡をとりメール、電話連絡で丁寧に対応して頂き、翌日の午前中には手元に帰ってきました。

ツアー中の貴重な写真が戻ってきてくれたことに感謝の気持ちでいっぱいです。
ご尽力してくださった職員の皆様、ありがとうございました。

Snorkeling was fun. The boat is nice, large, and stable. The two singers are good.
And the sneaky little creep sitting next to us at the next table reached right into my beach bag and stole my Yeti Coffee Cup and lid. We did not want to make a big scene. He was really fast and he and his "girl" were the only two people within 15 feet of us as Patsy and I had the front starboard corner of the boat. Keep an eye on your possessions. The staff on the boat are very conscientious and polite.

Warm welcoming and very friendly crews.
The water was quite cold and some breeze so I didn’t into the water but really enjoyed the views and colour of water

It was my first time snorkeling, and I'm really glad I experienced it! The ocean was beautiful, and I even encountered a sea turtle!

初めてのシュノーケリングでしたが、本当に体験してよかったです！
海は綺麗で、ウミガメにも出会えました！

I was a bit worried because it rained the day before, but on the day itself, it was sunny and I was able to enjoy the beautiful sea. Thank you very much.

前日が雨だったので少し心配してましたが、当日は晴れていてとってもきれいな海を楽しむことができました。
ありがとうございました。

It was a bit cold due to the strong winds, but I was able to encounter sea turtles. The cute Japanese staff member explained everything in Japanese, which made me feel at ease and allowed me to enjoy the experience. Thank you very much! ^_^

強風で少し寒かったですが、しっかりウミガメにも遭遇できました。日本人スタッフのかわいいお姉さんがしっかり日本語で説明してくれるので、安心しながら楽しむことができました。ありがとうございました^_^

I participated in a meeting that started in the afternoon around December 20th. There were two groups of Japanese people, including us, and the rest were other Asian individuals. The person who spoke Japanese was wonderful, so it wasn't a problem that we couldn't speak English. The weather was perfect for December, with no wind, and we could see the clear sea! After playing with the SUP and ball for about an hour, we all went snorkeling together. We saw about five sea turtles, and it was difficult not to get too close because we saw so many! The guides were fantastic!

12月20日ごろの午後スタートの会に参加しました。
日本人は私たち含め、2組であとは他のアジア系の方でした。
日本語が話せる方が素敵な方なので、英語が喋れなくても問題ないです。
天候は12月では最高のタイミングで、風もなく、透明に海が見えました！
1時間くらいはSUPやボールで遊んだらしたりしたあと、みんなでシュノーケルをしました。
ウミガメも5匹くらい見て、接近しないようにするのが難しかったくらい、たくさん見れました！
ガイドさんたちが素敵です！

We booked the Captain Bobs experience and it was 10/10. We played volleyball, went snorkeling and had a BBQ lunch. The crew was super sweet and professional!!!

I previously used another tour, but this one was definitely better! Kayaking, stand-up paddleboarding, snorkeling, and above all, it felt like we were playing with turtles on the banana boat!

以前他のツアーを利用しましたが、断然今回が良かった！　カヤック　サップ　シュノーケリング　何よりバナナボートで亀のと一緒に遊んだ感じでした！

It was soo fun the crew members where so nice and kind to everyone and at the end they told us where some things were made in the island that was cool.

The staff were very friendly and easy to talk to, and I had a great time! During the banana boat ride, I was able to encounter a group of sea turtles, making it a very satisfying tour!

スタッフの皆さんとても気さくで話しやすく、楽しい時間が過ごせました！
バナナボート中、海亀の群れと遭遇することができ大満足のツアーとなりました！

Even though it rained & the sun barely came out. We still had a great time. I especially had a great time being in the water with all the activities were provided. Shout out to the team. They were amazing and fun group to be with. Highly recommended but def much better if it was warmer.

The Angel Sea was very beautiful. Thanks to the thorough explanation and practice time for snorkeling, I was able to swim to my heart's content during the actual event. Fortunately, a sea turtle that had been resting in a coral cave came out, and I was able to swim with it.

天使の海とても綺麗でした
シュノーケルの丁寧な説明や練習時間のおかげで本番思う存分泳げました
ラッキーなことに珊瑚の洞穴で寝ていた海亀が出てきてくれて一緒に泳ぐこともできました

This tour came highly recommended by a friend, and I can see why! Was our favourite part of our trip to Hawaii, and we hope to visit again soon.
