We arrived at the requested 8:45 am check in, but at 9:30 the shuttle showed up with the remaining tour guests? Then we had to move to accommodate a larger party. The musical entertainment and staff were marvelous and of course feeding the fish was awesome overall pretty cool, next time we'll kayak un ourselves

Awesome Day!

Reviewed by: Marta

My family and I had a great time out at the Sandbar. We have never snorkeled or been on a paddle boat. The crew was super helpful and made us feel very comfortable that at the end of the day we were all pretty good on SUP boards. The live music was awesome. Would definitely recommended to family and friends.

The sandbar was cloudy with occasional showers, making it not very beautiful, and it was cold with rainy weather. The snorkeling was a bit murky, and I didn't see many fish. The sixth day had bad weather, which was a bit disappointing, but the crew did their best to keep us entertained.

It depends on the weather... お天気次第…

Reviewed by: とまと

You can only go to the sandbar if you join the tour, and there are no tours on Sundays, so my husband, who works on weekdays, couldn't join and I went alone. (By the way, most of the others were couples, so it felt a bit lonely!)

However, on the day of the tour, it was drizzling and overcast from the morning. The scenery was far from what you see in the photos; everything was gray. There's nothing you can do about the weather, so I suppose we can only hope for good weather.

Even though I participated alone, I was able to get explanations and practice for snorkeling at the sandbar. They provided explanations in both English and Japanese, so even if your English isn't great, you can feel at ease.

The hamburger for lunch was very delicious on the boat. The snorkeling in the second half wasn't very clear due to the bad weather, but I did see some fish.

However, it was really cold after getting out, and I was shivering. I had hot cocoa on the boat, but it didn't warm me up much. On the bus ride back, I was still in my wet swimsuit with just a cover-up, and the bus air conditioning was quite strong, making me shiver even more...

I recommend that participants try to take off as much wet clothing as possible and wear more layers for the return trip!

ツアーに参加しないとサンドバーまで行けないということと日曜日はツアーはないということで、平日は仕事だった主人は参加できず1人で参加しました。(ちなみに他のみなさんはカップルが多くてちょっと寂しい〜！)
しかし当日は朝からずっと霧雨の曇天。
写真のような景色とは程遠く、全部グレーでした。天候に左右されるのは致し方ないですから、こればかりは良い天気を祈るしかないかと思います。
1人参加でしたがサンドバーの時にシュノーケリングの説明と練習をさせてもらえます。英語での説明と日本語での説明をして下さるので英語がイマイチでも安心です。
ランチのハンバーガーは船上でとても美味しくいただきました。
後半のシュノーケリングも天候が悪かったので視界はあまり良くありませんでしたがお魚見えました。

ただ、とにかく上がった後寒くて寒くてガタガタ震えてしまいました。船上で熱いココアをいただきましたがなかなか温まらず。帰りのバスも濡れた水着を着たまま上に羽織って帰るのですが、これまたバスのエアコンがよくきいていてブルブル…。
参加される方は濡れたものは出来るだけ脱いで、行きよりたくさん着て帰れるようにすることをオススメします！

Unfortunately, the weather was not great on the day of my visit. I had imagined the perfect location under a blue sky with clear waters, but it was completely cloudy. I heard the sea was murky, but during snorkeling, I was able to see sea turtles and various colorful fish, which was truly moving.

Even in the rain, it was enjoyable, and I highly recommend it.

The sandbar island adventure!

Reviewed by: 329islandtours

This sandbar tour was the best choice! It was so fun! They had all the gear and all we had to do was bring ourselves! They supplied the tastiest BBQ burgers with vegan options as well! Our captain was so professional, yet funny, and extremely helpful taking pictures for us, and giving us the best sandbar adventure ever! We played volleyball, snorkeled, and enjoyed cruising around the sandbar. I can't wait to go again!

Thank you to the wonderful staff. 素晴らしいスタッフの皆さんありがとうございました

Reviewed by: Rie

I was expecting a blue sky and blue sea like in the images, but unfortunately, it rained, which was a bit disappointing. However, thanks to the staff who lifted the atmosphere, I decided to make the most of it and enjoy despite the rain.

For snorkeling, we went to a very deep part of the sea, but since I can't swim, I was scared and gave up, staying in the shallow area. Many staff members kindly encouraged me, so I decided to take the plunge and let them take me to the deep sea. Holding onto the float that the staff pulled, I felt safe enough to put my face in the water, and it was incredibly fun. I was able to see many different kinds of fish, including a large pufferfish and even four sea turtles. If I get the chance to come to Hawaii again, I would definitely like to participate again. Thank you very much, Jamie and all the other staff members. I'm glad I didn't give up at that time. Thank you!

イメージのような青い空　青い海を期待していたのですが生憎の雨で少しガッカリしていたんですが、スタッフの皆さんが雰囲気を盛り上げてくださったお陰で雨でも精一杯楽しもうと思いました。　シュノーケルは凄く深い海に行くのですが泳げない私は怖くて諦めて浅瀬にいたところ何人ものスタッフの皆さんが優しく声を掛けてくださったので、思い切って深い海に連れて行ってもらいました。スタッフさんが引っ張ってくれる浮き輪に掴まらせて貰って顔を海につけても安心感があり凄く楽しかったです。たくさんの大小様々な種類の魚、大きなフグや海亀は4匹も見ることが出来ました。次回ハワイに来ることが出来たら是非また参加したいです。ジェイミーさん　その他のスタッフの方々大変お世話になりました。あの時諦めないで良かった　ありがとうございました

I came to Hawaii for my honeymoon. When you think of Hawaii, you naturally want to visit the beautiful ocean, so I was looking forward to the sandbar, and the water there was even more beautiful than I imagined! The photos taken at the sandbar with the mountains in the background turn out to be stunning.

There was a Japanese staff member on the boat who was able to answer any questions I had, which made me feel very comfortable participating in the tour!

Encounter with a sea turtle ウミガメとの出会い

Reviewed by: KKKM

We headed to a sandbar located about a 10-minute boat ride from He'eia Kea Boat Harbor, which is about a 40-minute bus ride from the Waikiki Beach area.

Due to the tides, the sandbar was not fully exposed during my visit, but we were able to experience shallow waters up to our knees.

On the way from the boat harbor to the sandbar, we were able to see sea turtles, and during snorkeling, we got to see them up close.

There were various activities available, such as snorkeling, stand-up paddleboarding, and floating rings, so there was never a dull moment.

Additionally, each person was provided with a rice ball, snacks, and warm drinks on the boat, which was helpful when we got cold.

The staff's English was very easy to understand, so anyone with a little English knowledge could grasp almost everything. They also provided explanations in Japanese after the English ones, so even those who don't speak English at all can participate with confidence.

The bus ride to and from the location can be quite cold due to the air conditioning, so having a light jacket would be convenient.

I had a great time.

ワイキキビーチ地区からバスで40分ほど移動したHe'eia Kea Boat Harborからボートでさらに10分ほどのところにあるサンドバーに向かいます。

潮の満ち引きの関係で私の体験した時はサンドバーが露出するほど潮は引きませんでしたが、膝下ほどの浅瀬を体験出来ます。

ボートハーバーから、サンドバーまで移動する途中にウミガメを見ることができ、その後のシュノーケリングでも手が届くくらい近くでウミガメを見ることが出来ました。

シュノーケリング、サップ、浮き輪など色々遊ぶ物もあったので飽きることはないです。

また、船上で1人1つおにぎりと、スナックや温かい飲み物が提供されるので体が冷えた時は助かりました。

スタッフの方の英語もすごく聞き取りやすいので、少し英語ができる人ならほぼ全て理解出来ますが、英語の説明の後に日本語の説明もして頂けたので全く英語が出来ないひとでも安心して参加出来るかと思います。

行き帰りのバスはクーラーが寒いので、羽織ものはあると便利だと思います。

楽しかったです。

We had a big group of us go on this tour. It was seamless from the start. Check in was super easy, the boat ride was quick and so much fun!! The band was incredible!! And the donuts were yummy. When we got to the sandbar instructions were given and we got to go explore and have fun! My daughter actually got stung by a jellyfish while snorkelling and it could have ruined our excursion but the staff were excellent. Got her help immediately and were super attentive and caring to make sure she was doing ok. They even shared their own experiences with jellyfish. She got out in the water and had more fun before we had to head back to shore. Thank you for everything!! If we come back to Oahu we would definitely do another tour!!

It seems that sandbars appear depending on the season or time of day. When we went in late March during the day, it was just a regular shallow sea. There was live music on the cruise, which made us feel like we were in America! The activities were also fun. It seems essential to bring a jacket or a change of clothes, as it was quite cold.

The Best Tour in Oahu- a must do!

Reviewed by: Alaskawayne

Wow! To start. They picked us up at our hotel to start. Then drive us to Kaneohe sandbar. Next a beautiful short boat ride to two barges loaded with sea toys. Beautiful shallow sandy beaches that are user friendly for small children to seniors. The reef snorkeling is easy, very well guided and watched in smaller groups. We swam with turtles. Captain Danny went out of his way to share local marine knowledge and make sure all got to see turtles. This was our second time- we also sent our daughter and grandchild. They immediately fell in love with the tour and friendly crew. They are like family to us now. We will always come and swim with the turtles only with Captain Bruce's Team.
We have tried others and this family prefers and highly recommends Captain Bruce's based on experience. I am a former diver for the Seattle Aquarium, researcher for Washington State Department of Fisheries, Rescue Diver, Assistant Dive Instructor Advanced Open Water and lastly Alaska Department of Fish and Game. Simply said "Captain Bruce's does it right". I send my grandkids there Thank you Captain Bruce's! We love you!!! My only request is that you start another tour a bit more advanced for experienced snorkelers.
Then sign up this family

Great views and lots to do.

Reviewed by: Jillian Godwin

I’m so glad we booked this excursion during our 2 day whirlwind tour of Oahu. We have a friend that’s on the island so we came over from vacationing on Maui to visit. Check in was super easy. The boat was clean and well kept and the crew was amazing. Loved the live music on the journey to and from the sandbar. Once we arrived, there was a little something for everyone. Paddleboarding, kayaking, hanging out on a floating platform or snorkeling! They even had inner-tubing and banana boat rides for an extra fee. The views of the island were stunning. Trip lasted roughly 3 hours so plenty of time to still explore the island after. Shout out to Preston and Jesse for all the aloha and good vibes. It was a super fun trip and we highly recommend to anyone visiting Oahu. It’s a really great excursion.

The music Jessie and crew played on board, and DJ-ed during activities was awesome--so much fun dancing with the fish! We only wish could have had more than one go of the banana boat and bumper tube.
