All Reviews for Kaneohe Sandbar Tours & Cruises

Since it was December, the water was a bit cold when I went in. I saw a sea turtle. For breakfast, I only had a sandwich and taco chips. Considering that, the price was a bit high... Still, I was able to take some beautiful photos with a lovely view, so I’ll give it four stars. Also, I couldn’t see anything while snorkeling. The time was limited as well. I wouldn’t recommend going there for snorkeling purposes.

12月なので、海に入ると若干寒かったです。海がめのみれました。朝食はサンドイッチとタコスチップスのみ。それにしては料金が高めかな…。それでも、素敵な景色と写真が撮れたので、星４つにしておきます。
あと、シュノーケリングは何も見えませんでした。時間もわずか。シュノーケリング目的で行くことはおすすめしません。

I was able to see many sea turtles. However, the weather was unfortunate and it was cold. A hoodie might be essential depending on the situation. It seems that the tide changes depending on the season and time of day. This time, the tide was low up to my knees. The tour guide was lively and pleasant.

神様（ウミガメ）はたくさん見れました。ですが、あいにくの天気で、寒かったです。パーカーは場合によっては必需品でしょう。季節や時間帯によっては潮の引き具合が変わる模様。今回は膝下までの引きでした。ツアコンさんは元気な方で感じ良いです。

It was a beautiful day with great weather and a lovely ocean! There were many high school students, probably on a school trip, having fun playing beach volleyball. We wanted to join in, but... (laughs) However, it was a bit dangerous as we had to dodge the balls around us. My husband actually got hit by one and looked like it hurt^^; But more than that, the ocean was beautiful, we saw turtles while cruising, and snorkeling at the coral reef was wonderful! The BBQ for lunch was also very delicious! It might have been a bit crowded with so many people?? I guess we just happened to be there with the school trip students...

いいお天気で、海も綺麗ですばらしい一日をすごすことが出来ました！！修学旅行中？の高校生もたくさんおり、ビーチバレーをしていて楽しそうでした。私たちも参加したかったですが・・・（笑）でも、ちょっと周囲はボールを避けたりして危なかったですかね？実際主人もボールがあたって痛そうにしてました^^;でも、それ以上に海は綺麗し、クルージング中にカメも見れたし、さんご礁でのシュノケーリングも、ステキでした！お昼のＢＢＱもとっても美味しかったです！！少し人が多いのが大変かな？？たまたま修学旅行生と一緒になったのだろうけど・・

Most of the participants were newlyweds and young people, but we older folks had a great time as well. My wife, who is a big fan of the ocean and swimming, was particularly moved, saying, "I swam with a sea turtle!" We will definitely participate again if we have the chance.

新婚さんや若い方の参加者がほとんどでしたが、私たち熟年も十分楽しめました。
特に妻は、海と水泳大好きおばさんなので「ウミガメと一緒に泳いだよ」と感動してました。
また、機会が有れば参加します。

Walking on the sandbar and capturing sea turtles with an underwater camera... I applied to Captain Bruce with the expectation of experiencing a "heavenly sea" that would be 100% fulfilled. However, on the day of the trip, the wind was strong, the sky was cloudy, and it drizzled, making it very cold! I only caught a glimpse of the turtle's head far away, and the underwater camera I bought for $20... The water level on the sandbar was up to my chest, which was not what I had envisioned. I had planned to try snorkeling, but I was told, "You need to be quite confident in your swimming skills, or you'll get swept away," so I had to give up.

I have no complaints about the staff at all, but I think it would be better for those who are planning to book in the future to receive a bit more explanation, as this day seemed quite unusual!

My daughters went to "Angel's Sea" the next day, but it was the same situation. The weather was good, though.

It might be due to the unusual weather that couldn't be helped.

サンドバーを歩いて、海がめを水中カメラで撮影して…
と１００%叶えられる「天国の海」だと、キャプテンブルースにこだわり申込みましたが、
当日は風が強く、曇り空で雨がぱらつく状況で、寒い、寒い！
ウミガメは遠くに頭が見え隠れしただけで、２０ドルで買った水中カメラは…
サンドバーも水位は胸の下くらいまであり、自分の思い描いていたところではありませんでした。
シュノーケリングにも挑戦するつもりでしたが、「かなり泳ぎに自信のある方でないと流されます」と言われて断念しましたし。

スタッフの方々にも全く不満はありませんが、この日が本当に特異な日であったのか、これから申し込みされる方にはもう少し説明をされた方がいいと思います！

娘たちは翌日「天使の海」に行きましたが、やっぱり同じ様子。お天気はよかったですが。

どうにもできない異常気象のせいかもしれませんが。

The basic offerings include transportation, sandbar walks, snorkeling, light snacks, and drinks, as well as sales of items like motion sickness bands and underwater cameras to address participants' concerns and hopes. The system is very well thought out to ensure that everyone in large group tours can be satisfied. Of course, the sandbar walk was enjoyable, and we were able to see sea turtles and snorkel with peace of mind.

送迎、サンドバーウォーク、シュノーケリング、軽食やドリンクなどの基本内容から、酔い止めバンドや水中カメラ&記念写真などの参加者の不安や希望をフォローする販売まで…。
大人数ツアーでも参加者皆が満足できるようなシステムがとてもよく考えられています。
サンドバーウォークはもちろん、ウミガメも見れ、シュノーケリングも安心して楽しめました。

I participated in a lunch tour. It was a bit cold, but luckily I was able to swim with turtles, which made me very satisfied. The sandbar had water up to my knees, but the clarity wasn't that great. The hamburger for lunch was also delicious.

ランチのツアーに参加しました。少し寒かったですが、運良くカメと泳ぐことができ大満足でした。サンドバーは膝くらいの水量でしたが透明度はそこまでではなかったです。ランチのハンバーガーも美味しかった。

Due to the tides, you can't experience the sandy areas without water as shown in the photos. Snorkeling in a sea with a visibility of 1-2 meters is impossible. Furthermore, being told about the legitimacy of tipping when disembarking makes you feel empty and unwilling to give a tip. I won't say it's a lie, but using images without certainty is no different from fraud. At the very least, they should provide information about the tides.

潮の干満の関係で、写真にある様な水がない砂地を体験出来ない。
透明度が1-2メートルの海でシュノーケリングはありえない。
また、下船時にチップの正当性を述べられても虚しくなってチップを入れる気にもなれない。
嘘とは言いませんが、確実性のない画像使用は詐欺とかわりません。
少なくとも、潮の干満情報くらいは掲載すべきだ。

The water level forecast for the day of participation was 0.86 feet at 10 AM. So, of course, we participated in the morning. On the way to the sandbar, we were able to see honu (sea turtles) from the boat multiple times! At the sandbar, the staff took many photos of us. Snorkeling was fun, and we were able to see fish. The water wasn't very clear, possibly because the participants were swimming close together, but since it was my first time, I enjoyed it enough. It was windy and cloudy, and it was cold, so it would have been nice if the drinks after getting back on the boat were a bit warmer. It seems that if you don't check the water level before going, there are times when it can be too deep to get off the boat. The staff were all cheerful, friendly, and full of energy! They also spoke Japanese, which was reassuring. Next time, I would like to participate when the sandbar is exposed.

参加日の水位予測は、10時　0.86フィートでした。
ということで、参加は勿論午前中。
サンドバーに行くまでに、船からホヌ(ウミガメ)が見れると言うことで、何回も見れました！
サンドバーでは、スタッフさんがシャッター押して下さって、二人の写真が沢
山取れました。
シュノーケリングも楽しく、お魚も見れました。
参加者がかたまって泳ぐからか、水中は綺麗とは行きませんでしたが、初めてだたので充分楽しめました。
風が強く、曇り空で寒かったので、船に上がってからの飲み物が、もうちょっと温かかったら良かったですね。
参加される方は、水位を調べて行かないと、船から降りれないくらい深い時もあるようですよ。
スタッフは、皆さん陽気でフレンドリーで元気いっぱい！　日本語もちゃんと通じるので安心です。
次回は砂浜が出る時に参加してみたいです。

I think it might have been because it was November, but the weather was cloudy and, simply put, very cold. I participated in snorkeling while shivering, but the sea was murky and not beautiful at all. The water level was about waist-high, and there was certainly no sandbar.

Also, we formed a pretty tight group while snorkeling, so it was common to get kicked by others' fins...

I was honestly disappointed because I was expecting the images to reflect a different experience.

I think it's better for those participating to consider the timing of their visit.

１１月ということもあったかとは思いますが、お天気も曇りでとにかく寒かったの一言です。
シュノーケリングも震えながら参加しましたが、海も濁っていてきれいとは言えませんでした。水位は腰上くらいで、サンドバーはもちろんありません。
また、集団でかなり固まった状態で列をなしてシュノーケリングをするので他人のバタ足がぶつかることもしばしば…

画像の感じを期待していたので正直がっかりでした。

参加される方は時期を考えて参加されたほうがよいかと思います。

I joined because I wanted to see a beautiful ocean, and I was truly able to see a wonderful blue sea! I was moved by the ocean that stretched as far as the eye could see! Unfortunately, I didn't get to see the white sandy beach, which was a bit disappointing, but the ocean was still beautiful, and we had an amazing time!

Our tour guide, Yusuke, was very cheerful and funny, making for a fun memory. I honestly wasn't very interested in snorkeling, but after participating, I was amazed that I could see so many corals and fish! I seemed to struggle a bit with snorkeling and almost drowned a few times, but Yusuke provided thorough instructions and kept an eye on me, so I felt safe swimming!

Thanks to the beautiful ocean and the fun tour guides, I was able to create wonderful memories! Thank you so much! I love you, Yusuke!

とにかく綺麗な海がみたいと参加しましたが本当に水色の素敵な海が見られました！見渡す限り広がる海に感動でした！残念ながら白い砂浜を見られなかったのでさみしいですがそれでも十分綺麗な海でめちゃくちゃ騒ぎました！
添乗員のゆーすけさん、とっても明るく面白い方で楽しい思い出になりました。
シュノーケリングは正直あまり興味なかったですが参加してみてまさかあんなにサンゴと魚をたくさんみることができるとは思わなかったので感動でした！ただシュノーケリングは苦手だったみたいで何度かおぼれそうになりましたが…しっかりレクチャーもしてくれて見守っていてくれたので安心して泳げました！

あんなに綺麗な海と楽しい添乗員さんたちのおかげで素敵な思い出がつくれました！
本当にありがとうございました！
ゆーすけさん大好き！

We participated as a couple. The sandbar was about knee-deep, but the ocean was incredibly beautiful, and we had a great time. The staff members were cheerful and fun, making us smile multiple times. The food was delicious, so I would rate it 120 out of 100. I would like to participate again.

夫婦で参加させていただきました。
サンドバーは膝下くらいでしたが、海もすごくきれいですごく楽しめました。
またスタッフの皆さんも明るく楽しく何回も笑顔にさせてくれました。
食事も美味しかったので１２０点の内容でした。
次も参加したいと思います。

I participated in a heavenly sea tour with my colleagues on a company trip. The sea was incredibly beautiful and crystal clear! It was truly a sandbar♪ There were plenty of great shots! While on the boat, we also got to do some turtle watching, and the turtles were swimming around the boat. They were so cute(^-^) During snorkeling, I floated around and enjoyed seeing the turtles and coral, and I had a wonderful time＼(^-^)／

会社の旅行で同僚と天国の海ツアーに参加しました。すごくキレイな海で、透き通ってました！まさにサンドバー♪ベストショットもいっぱい！ボートに乗りながらウミガメウォッチングもできて、ウミガメがボートの周りを行ったり来たり。可愛かったです(^-^)シュノーケリングではプカプカ浮きながら、ウミガメや珊瑚が見れて、たっぷり堪能いたしました＼(^-^)／

I signed up for this for my wife’s parents, who love the ocean. As soon as we returned to the accommodation, they exclaimed, "It was absolutely amazing!!" On that day, they couldn’t see the sandbar and the water level was only up to their knees, but it seems they thoroughly enjoyed snorkeling with colorful fish and sea turtles. I heard that some elderly participants didn’t go into the water but were able to ride on a canoe-like boat to watch the fish and sea turtles. The breakfast also seemed to be delicious.

海の好きな嫁のご両親のために申し込みました。宿に戻ってくるなり「ものすごく良かった！！」と大喜びでした。この日はサンドバーは見られずひざ下位までの水位だったそうですが色とりどりの魚やウミガメとたわむれシュノーケリングを満喫したようです。ご高齢の方も参加されていて海には入らずカヌーのようなボートに乗せてもらって魚やウミガメウォッチングを見ていられたと聞きました。朝食も美味しかったようです。

It was unexpectedly rainy.
I went during the dry season, but I was surprised by the bad weather and the cold.
Especially during snorkeling, there were people shivering from the cold.
If it had been sunny, the scenery would have been beautiful and it would have been amazing.
I would like to try again next time.

まさかの雨でした。
乾季に行ったのですがまさか天気が悪く寒かったです。
特にシュノーケリングは寒くがたがた震えている人もいました。
晴れていればとても景色もよく最高だったでしょう。
次回またチャレンジしたいと思います。

The sandbar was great with the sea turtles, but the weather was cloudy and very cold (>_<)
However, the ocean was really beautiful, which was nice.

サンドバーはウミガメはすごくよかったですが、天気が曇りでとても寒かったです(>_<)
でも海はすごくきれいでよかったです。

The sea was more beautiful than I imagined. I was moved to find such a beautiful place in the middle of the ocean. I also got to see sea turtles for the first time, and it was the best place ever. The hamburgers were delicious, and the staff were really great to us; I had so much fun♡ I would love to participate again if I have the chance.

海は想像以上に綺麗。
海の真ん中にあんなに綺麗な
場所があるなんて感動でした。
海亀も初めてみれて、最高の場所でした。
ハンバーガーも美味しかったし、スタッフさん達にもすごく良くして頂いて、本当楽しかった♡
また機会があれば参加したいです。

I included it in the original tour for the children's honeymoon. Since it departs in the afternoon, you can enjoy a leisurely brunch in the morning. A while ago, Hanauma was popular, but now it's a hot tour! The beautiful sea is breathtaking! It's also a meaningful use of time.

子供の新婚旅行のオリジナルツアーに組み込みました。
午後出発なので朝はゆっくりとブランチができます。
一昔前はハナウマ人気でしたが、今アツイツアーですね＾＾
きれいな海に感動もの！時間的にも有意義です

The sandbar was more beautiful than I imagined! It's a place I want to visit again. The weather wasn't very good, so snorkeling was a bit disappointing, but I got to see sea turtles, and I'm very satisfied!

サンドバーは想像以上にきれいでした！もう一度行きたいと思えるような場所です。
天気があまり良くなかったのでシュノーケリングは少し残念でしたが、ウミガメも見れたし、大満足です！

I participated in somewhat gloomy weather, but luckily I was able to see the sandbar. I also took some really nice photos. I think it would be amazing if the weather were good.

かなりどんよりした天気の中参加しましたが、運よくサンドバーを見ることができました。
とても素敵な写真も撮れました。天気が良ければ最高だと思います。

The sandbar was incredibly beautiful and the best place. I felt like it was a heavenly sea when the tide came in and the beach appeared. I also saw sea turtles and had an amazing experience snorkeling with lots of fish.

サンドバーはとにかくきれいで最高の場所でした。
潮が満ちて砂浜が現れるなんてまさに天国の海だなと感じました。
ウミガメも見れたしシュノーケリングで魚もいっぱい見れたし最高の体験でした。

I checked the dates for when the sandbar would have the lowest water level, but there was still water up to my knees, so I didn't encounter the scenery I often see in pictures. Still, it was really beautiful!

Snorkeling was included in the plan, and since I can't swim, I hadn't prepared for it. However, the staff reassured me that they would support me, and they took me to the snorkeling spot. Thanks to them, I was able to enjoy snorkeling!

サンドバー自体はなるべく水位の低い日にちを調べて行ったのですがやっぱり膝下ぐらいの高さまで潮があって、よく見る画像のような光景には出会えませんでした。それでもすごくきれいでした！
シュノーケリングが予定に組み込まれていて、わたしは泳げないからと準備をしないでいたらスタッフがサポートするから大丈夫だよ、と声をかけてくれて一緒にシュノーケルスポットまで連れて行ってくれました。おかげ様で楽しくシュノーケリングができてよかったです！

I had a great time! It was really enjoyable!! The crew's homey atmosphere was also very nice!! I was satisfied because I could see the sea turtles properly.

However, despite being called the sea of heaven, the water wasn't very clear! Okinawa is definitely much clearer!!

But since it was after the rain! The photos were taken with dynamic range, so maybe this is how it usually looks!?

The snorkeling was really fun too!!

楽しかったです！普通に楽しめます！！
クルーの方達のアットホームな感じも非常に交換です！！
ちゃんとウミガメもみれたので満足しております。

しかし天国の海というわりには、水が綺麗ではなかったです！沖縄のほうが完全に綺麗です！！

でも雨の後だったので！写真はダイナミックレンジで撮影してるんで！本来ならこんな感じなのかな！？

シュノーケルも本当に楽しかったですよ！！

The sea was very beautiful. I was satisfied to see a sea turtle (laughs). Furthermore, I was extremely satisfied to swim with the sea turtle. I highly recommend this tour!

海がとても綺麗でした
ウミガメも見れて満足(笑)
更に、ウミガメと一緒に泳げ大満足
このツアーは、入れる事をおすすめします！

Unfortunately, it was cloudy, but I think the view would be wonderful if it were sunny.

You can definitely see sea turtles (just their heads, though), and the offshore sandy beach is a fantastic spot.

However, if there are many participants in snorkeling, it can get crowded in the water, so be careful of the feet of the person in front of you (laughs).

残念ながら曇ってましたが、晴れてれば景色も素晴らしいと思います。

ウミガメは100％見れます(頭だけですが)、沖合のサンドビーチも素晴らしい場所です。

ただシュノーケリングは参加者が多いと海で渋滞が起きますので前の人の足にご注意を(笑)

It was a very fulfilling day, and I was extremely satisfied. The sandbar was beautiful, and I even got to see a sea turtle. If I go to Hawaii again, I definitely want to participate again. Thank you, Yuki.

かなり充実した１日で大満足でした。サンドバーも綺麗でしたし、ウミガメにも会えました。ハワイへ行ったら、また是非参加したいです。ユキさん、ありがとうごさいました。

This time, we participated as a group of five, including friends and family. Thanks to the attentive care of the staff, they flexibly accommodated each of our wishes, allowing all five of us to enjoy ourselves. We had the best time together with the beautiful sea, sea turtles, and tropical fish, playing games and making wonderful memories.

この度は5人で、友達、親子で参加しました。ｽﾀｯﾌの行き届いた配慮でそれぞれの希望にも柔軟に対応して頂き5人それぞれが楽しむことができました。
キレイな海に海ガメに熱帯魚、みんなでゲームをしたりで、最高の時間を過ごすことができました。

If you walk on the pure white sand in the middle of the ocean, you'll encounter giant sea turtles. If you peek into the water, you can see a mother sea turtle with her baby, along with tropical fish swimming just within reach!

海の真ん中で真っ白な砂の上を徒歩で歩けば､ﾃﾞｯｶｲ海亀に当たる｡
海の中を覗けば､海亀の親子の姿に熱帯の魚達の泳ぐ姿が手の届きそうな所に居る
のが見えるﾖ～!!

I participated with two friends, making a total of three of us. Before we departed, the weather was not very good, and I was quite worried, but we were able to experience a beautiful sandbar as the sun came out. The visibility wasn't great, probably due to the rain, so I give it three stars, but we did see sea turtles, and the crew was cheerful, making it a lot of fun! I think it’s worth going! There was a tour guest who mistakenly thought it was a regular cruise, and they seemed to have some downtime while snorkeling, so I think it's important to be careful when choosing a tour. Thank you for introducing us to this enjoyable tour! I will participate again if I have the chance!

友達と計3名で参加しました。出発前は天候があまり優れずとても心配でしたが、晴れ間も広がり綺麗なサンドバーを体験することが出来ました。雨が降っていたせいもあって、透明度があまり良くなかったので星は3つですが、ウミガメも見れましたし、乗組員さん達も陽気でとても楽しかったです！行って損はないと思います！ツアー客の方の中に普通のクルージングと間違えてしまった方がいらっしゃって、シュノーケリング中など時間を持て余らせていたので、ツアーを選ぶときは注意が必要だと思いました。今回は楽しいツアーをご紹介いただきありがとうございました！また機会があれば参加します！

It was unfortunately a cloudy day, but I had a great time participating. On the day I attended, the water level was about halfway up my shins at the shallowest point. If you want to see the completely exposed sand like in the brochure, it's better to research and decide on your participation date in advance! You can find the low tide times online!
The BBQ lunch was served in a hamburger style. It was delicious! On the way back, there was a hot drink service. It was a bit cold, so it was nice to warm up.

あいにくの曇り空でしたが楽しく参加できました。参加した日は1番浅い所でひざ下半分くらいの水位でした。パンフレットみたいに完全に砂がでた状態が見たいのであれば事前に調べてから参加日を決めた方かいいですね！干潮時間はネットで調べられます！
ランチのBBQはハンバーガースタイル。美味しかったです！帰りにはホットドリンクのサービスがありました。少し寒かったので身体が温まり助かりました。
