Kaneohe ocean sports at the sandbar was amazing! We started with either glazed or chocolate donuts with lemonade. When we got to the sandbar they had a variety of activities including kayaking, stand up paddle boarding, volleyball and snorkeling. We loved the snorkeling! They took us to an area of the sandbar that was still shallow enough to stand but had plenty of coral to swim around and explore. Staff was friendly and constantly kept watch over the participants, making this a safe and enjoyable environment. Overall would definitely recommend especially for families

Staff were excellent and I would highly recommend that lunch excursion. We upgraded for the banana boat ride for our granddaughters when checking in. We were offered to ride in the boat so that we could get videos of the girls on the ride.
Water was shallow and bit difficult to snorkel.
Parking is at a premium and I had to wait in the lot until someone pulled out.

We were blessed with great weather and had a great time. Our guide, Yuki-san, was happy and energetic, and we really enjoyed the experience at the sandbar. It was the first snorkeling experience for the children, and they seemed nervous, but they were able to try it even in places where they couldn't get their feet on, and they were able to see the fish with their own eyes! The hamburger we ate on board was also exceptional. We had a really valuable experience. thank you very much!

I participated with my spouse and friends. At first, I wondered if there would be anyone who spoke Japanese among the staff, but there was someone who spoke it fluently, which made me feel at ease to join! Since I can't swim in deep water, I thought I would skip the snorkeling, but with a life jacket on and the staff providing constant support, I was able to see sea turtles and fish safely! I was also happy that we had prescription underwater goggles available, so everyone could participate! After snorkeling, we were able to do SUP, and it was truly a satisfying tour! Among all the meals during this trip to Hawaii, the spam musubi we had on the boat was the most delicious! The hot drinks and snacks were refreshing for our tired bodies after being in the sea! Thank you so much to the staff who really encouraged us!☆\(^-^)/
夫婦と仲間で参加させていただきました。
最初スタッフに日本語話せる方が居ないのかなと思っていたら、日本語がペラペラの方がいて安心して参加できました☆
足のつかないところでは泳げないのでシュノーケルの参加は遠慮しようと思っていたら、ライフジャケットをちゃんと付けて、スタッフの方が常にサポートしてくれる形で無事に海ガメとお魚も見れました!

Since the morning tour I wanted was fully booked at the time of reservation, I participated in the afternoon tour. When I entered my accommodation details during the booking, they specified the nearest pickup location.
During the tour, there was a staff member who spoke Japanese to assist us after boarding. While snorkeling, I was able to see a sea turtle up close, creating memories that are hard to experience in daily life. After snorkeling, we enjoyed various activities at our leisure, and the tour concluded.
What I was glad to bring was definitely a waterproof case for my smartphone. I bought it at a 100 yen shop in Japan, and it was fairly usable. It was a bit difficult to operate underwater while snorkeling, so I might have been more satisfied with something of better quality.
Also, a bath towel is important. If you can borrow multiple towels from the hotel, it's better to bring one along. After coming out of the sea, your body gets cold, so having one for drying off and another to wrap around you is great!
予約時は希望の午前中ツアーがいっぱいだったので午後のツアーに参加しました。予約時に宿泊先を入力すると、最寄りのピックアップ場所を指定してもらいました。
ツアーでは乗船後に日本語ができるスタッフさんにもご対応いただきました。シュノーケリングではウミガメを間近で見ることができ、日常ではなかなか体験できない思い出ができました。シュノーケリング後は各々自由なアクティビティを楽しみ、ツアーは終了しました。
持参してよかったのはやはりスマホ防水ケース。日本で100均で買ったものでしたが、まぁまぁの使い勝手でした。シュノーケリング時に水中での操作は難しかったので、もう少し性能がいいものだと満足かも?
あとはバスタオル。ホテルで複数枚借りれれば持って行った方がよいです。海から上がれば体は冷えますし、拭く用と体に羽織る用があればGoodです!

As expected, the sea in January is cold, and although it was sunny, there was hardly any direct sunlight, which made it tough. The children were shivering.
When we arrived at the sandbar, it should have been around low tide to high tide, but the water level had already risen, and it wasn't dry land, which was disappointing.
However, we did get to see sea turtles and manta rays. Also, snorkeling was quite tough, and taking care of the kids while doing it was pretty exhausting.
やはり1月の海は寒く、晴れてはいたが直射日光がほぼなかったのでつらかった。子供はくちびるを震わせたりしていた。
サンドバーも到着時には干潮から満潮の間くらいだったはずだがすでに潮位が上がっており、陸地にはなっておらず残念。
ただウミガメやマンタには会えました。
あとシュノーケリングは結構タフで子供をケアしながらの実施はかなり疲れました。

It was a tour in the morning, but because it had rained the day before and there was a little rain on the day itself, the sea was a bit cold and didn't have the beauty of a heavenly sea. However, as it got closer to noon, it started to clear up, and gradually beautiful scenery began to appear.
Also, I was able to see sea turtles and enjoyed stand-up paddleboarding. The tour crew spoke Japanese and were very friendly and easy to talk to, which made it a lot of fun!
Next time I come, I want to see the best scenery!

I had been to Angel's Sea once before, but this was my first time on a snorkeling tour. I was very satisfied to see sea turtles and manta rays at Angel's Sea! And having a hamburger for lunch while on the water was the best. The guides explained everything in a way that was easy for Japanese people to understand, so I had no worries and enjoyed myself. Since it wasn't just a boat for Japanese people, I was able to interact with people from other countries, which was also fun (we exchanged snacks we brought with us, laughing together).
This was my first time snorkeling, and I was amazed to see the fish up close! Since it was the ocean, I was a bit worried about being swept away by the current, but there were people nearby, so I felt safe and enjoyed it. It was a bit cold on the boat, so I think a larger and thicker bath towel would be better. Also, it's best to leave all jewelry at the hotel. I found that the area between my chin and neck surprisingly got sunburned, so it's better to apply sunscreen thoroughly. I went on the last day of my stay in Hawaii, and I'm really glad I did. I highly recommend this tour!
以前天使の海は一度行ったことがあったのですが、シュノーケル付きのツアーは初めてでした。天使の海では海亀とマンタが見れて大満足!そしてランチのハンバーガーも海の上で食べると最高ですね。日本人向けに説明をして頂けるので何も不安な点も無く楽しめました。日本人のみの船ということでは無いので他の国の方とも交流ができてそれもまた楽しかったです。(お互い持ってきたスナックを交換こしたり笑)
シュノーケルは初挑戦でしたが、魚が近くで見れて感動しました!!海なので多少潮に流されそうになりますが近くに人がいるので安心して楽しめました。船の上は寒かったりもするのでバスタオルは大きめで厚めの方がいいと思います。あとはジュエリーは全てホテルに置いてくべし。日焼け止めはあごと首の間が意外と焼けたので、念入りに塗った方がいいです。ハワイ滞在の最後の日に行きましたが本当に行って良かったです。おすすめのツアーです。

All I can say, this group is awesome. We had the sandbar adventure last January 4, 2023. Despite the weather didn’t cooperate, they still made sure that we have a good time. Supposedly it’s a big group, but because it’s raining that day, some parties cancelled their trip while we just want to get over it and don’t want to be back the next day. It turned out to be an awesome adventure for us. My kids still did their banana boat ride and bumpers as well as paddle boarding and snorkeling. And my daughter even had a chance to have duet with my HERO!!! (It’s a long story).
I’m so thankful with them coz my kids really enjoyed this adventure. We all had a good time.
