I checked the tide times, but the best times were late at night or early in the morning, which didn't match the tour schedule, so I was worried about how much I would enjoy it. However, I was able to see sea turtles and many fish, which made me very satisfied. The spam sushi we had on the boat was surprisingly delicious. The sea was beautiful, and I'm really glad I participated.
満ち引きの時間帯を見たけど、ベストな時間帯が夜中や朝方でツアーの時間帯に合わず、参加してどれくらい楽しめるか心配でしたが、海亀は見れたくさんの魚も見れて満足です。船で食べたスパム握りがことの他美味しかったです。海が綺麗で、ほんとに参加して良かったです。

I used this during my honeymoon. Some of the staff communicated with me in Japanese and provided explanations in Japanese, which was very kind of them. The continuous music created a wonderful atmosphere as well.
Regarding what to bring... For the bus transfer, it was fine to go in my swimsuit, but it's better to have something to change into for the return trip. A towel would also be great. If you're wet, the bus seats will get wet, and more importantly, the air conditioning is quite strong, so it can get really cold.
ハネムーン中に利用しました。
何人かのスタッフの方が日本語でコミュニケーションをとってくれたり、英語の説明を日本語でしてくださったりして、凄く親切でした。
またずっと音楽を奏でてくれるので素敵な時間も過ごせました。
持ち物に関してですが…
バス送迎は行きは水着でいけましたが、帰りは何か着替えるものを持っていった方がいいです。タオルもあれば◎
濡れたままだとバスの椅子が濡れてしまいますし、何より冷房ガンガンなので凍えます。

I have participated in sandbar tours several times before, but this tour was the most enjoyable so far because, in addition to snorkeling, there were various activities available such as stand-up paddleboarding, balls, and large floaties, which kept things fun and engaging. The staff were also bright and accommodating, making an effort to entertain us. However, one point to note is that all the explanations were in English only, so if the key points could have been communicated in Japanese as well, it would have made those who are not proficient in English feel more at ease.
今までサンドバーツアーには何回か参加したことがありますが、今回のツアーはシュノーケリング以外にも、サップボードやボール、大きな浮き輪等色々な遊び遠具が用意されていて、飽きずに楽しめ、今までで一番楽しかったです。
スタッフの方々も楽しませてくれようと明るく対応してくれました。
ただ一点、説明が全て英語のみでしたので、ポイントだけでも日本語で伝えていただけたら、英語が得意でない人も、より安心できたと思いました。
Aloha! Thank you very much for participating in the Captain Bruce's Paradise Ocean Tour.

The cruise ship was large, with many tables arranged inside and a small stage as well. We were guided to our seats by the staff. While we were on our way to the sandbar, we enjoyed lovely music played with a ukulele, guitar, and singing.
The water level at the sandbar changes with the tides, so if you have the time, it might be a good idea to check the tide conditions in advance. We signed up at the last minute, so we didn’t check beforehand, but on the morning of our visit, the water level was about waist-deep. In some areas, it was deep enough to reach shoulder height, but even so, the clear water was beautifully colored and truly stunning.
You can freely enjoy SUP, kayaking, and snorkeling. However, there are a limited number of SUPs and kayaks, so if others are using them and they are not available, you may have to wait. We tried SUP for the first time, and it was a bit difficult to balance, and with the ocean current, it was quite challenging to go in the direction we intended. But it was a lot of fun.
One thing to be careful about is the red buoys, which indicate where you should not go beyond. If you get too close, we were told to sit down and paddle back on the SUP or to get out and walk back if you were in a kayak.
For snorkeling, we swam in an area with coral reefs, and since the water was shallow, we were able to see the fish up close. They were so beautiful that we could have watched them for a long time.
The lounge floating on the sea was also a photogenic spot. At the sandbar, you can spend your time freely until it's time to go, so when we got cold, we returned to the ship to wrap ourselves in towels and enjoyed some orange juice and donuts.
There was one men's restroom and two women's restrooms on board, which was convenient. All the staff members were bright, cheerful, and wonderful people. There was also one Japanese staff member, so I think you don’t have to worry if you're anxious about your English.
On the way back, we left the sandbar while listening to music and returned to the port. It became a very lovely memory. We had so much fun. Thank you, everyone!
クルーズ船は大きくて、中はたくさんテーブルが並んでいて、小さなステージもありました。場所はスタッフの方に案内されて座りました。サンドバーに着くまでの間、ウクレレとギターと歌で素敵な音楽を聞くことができました。
サンドバーは潮の満ち引きによって水位が変わるので、余裕があれば、あらかじめ潮の状態を調べておくといいかもしれません。私たちは直前に申し込んだので調べていきませんでしたが、私たちが行った日の午前中は水位が腰くらいまでありました。場所によっては肩くらいまで深さがありましたが、それでも、透き通った水でとてもきれいな色をしていて、本当に美しかったです。
SUPやカヤック、シュノーケリングは自由にすることができます。SUPとカヤックに関しては個数が限られているので、他の方が使っていてその場にない場合は待たないといけないと思います。私たちは初めてSUPに挑戦しましたが、バランスを取るのが少し難しく、海水の流れもあるので思った方向に進むのがなかなか難しかったです。でもとても楽しかったです。
注意しなければならないのは、赤いブイがあるので、その先には行かないということです。そこの近くまで行ってしまったら、SUPでは座って戻ったり、カヤックの場合は降りて歩いて戻ったりするように言われました。
シュノーケリングでは、珊瑚礁がある場所で泳ぎましたが、こちらも水深が浅いので、近くで魚たちを見ることができました。とてもきれいで、ずっと見ていられるくらいでした。
海に浮かぶラウンジもフォトジェニックな場所でした。
サンドバーでは時間まで自由に過ごすことができるので、体が冷えたら船内に戻ってタオルにくるまったり、オレンジジュースやドーナツをいただいたりしました。
船内に男子トイレは1つ、女子トイレは2つあったので、トイレに行けるのもよかったです。
スタッフのみなさんが明るく陽気で素敵な方ばかりでした。また、日本人のスタッフさんも1人いらっしゃったので、英語に不安があっても心配いらないと思います。
帰りも音楽を聞きながらサンドバーをあとにし、港へ戻りました。
とても素敵な思い出になりました。すごく楽しかったです。みなさん、ありがとうございました。

The entire experience was wonderful, especially the captain and crew. The food and drinks were great as well. My only complaint is that I wish our time at the sandbar was longer! We spent a good while at the snorkeling reef, but I wish our time at the sandbar was equal in length. 10/10 recommend!!

We had such a unique experience going to the SandBar. It was like having our own little beach area. They provided lunch in our package. Live music was played during our boat ride there and back. They provided kayaks, paddle boards, life vests and snorkel gear. They were a fun crew and i can tell they enjoy working together. They were eager to help teach about Hawaiian culture and boat safety. It was one of the trip highlights and i would highly recommend to anyone to do it. Just be mindful of the tide as certain times the tide can be very high to your chest or low to your knees.

The weather was mostly cloudy, but it hardly rained. The contrast between the white sandbar and the surrounding sea was beautiful. At the turtle point, I encountered many sea turtles, and they were adorable. A little further away, there were a few manta rays, and everyone was excited to see manta rays during the day, which is quite rare! Of course, I was too! This was my second time at the sandbar, and although I haven't experienced perfectly clear weather yet, just being able to see the beautiful contrast of the sea is soothing for the soul!

日本の大手ツアー会社と提携している同様のツアーが満員で予約できなかったためこちらで予約しました。
結果的に大満足でした!船は大きくてトイレや更衣室もあり、ドーナツや飲み物のサービスも嬉しかった。天気があまり良くなく、水位も高かったのですが、十分に楽しめました。海に浮かぶラウンジも思ったよりのんびり出来て良かった。バナナボートは想像以上のスピードで何度か落ちそうになりながらも後ろの知らない人が支えてくれたりしてアットホームな雰囲気でした。行き帰りのハワイアンミュージックの生演奏がとにかくいいです。上手だし、ノリノリの外国の方がいてさらに盛り上がりました。こっそり置いてあるあったかい紅茶のサービスも冷えた体には助かりました。

Beautiful scenery, super kind staff, wonderful music. Tried kayak, snorkel and it was so fun. Water was so clear, I could see fish so close it was beautiful. Only thing is the time could be longer. We got to the sandbar about 9:30 and left around 12pm. I wish I could have more time so I could try other activities like volleyball and paddle board. The boat was full with over 100 people but didn’t feel like it was packed. Especially when we got to the sandbar, people were more spread out. Overall, the tour was way better than expected and definitely want to do it again!! Thank you!
