Kaneohe Sandbar Tour with Snorkel, Kayak, SUP & Live Hawaiian Music - Kaneohe Bay Ocean Sports

Wonderful Snorkeling and kayaking experience

Reviewed by: Junsheng

Embarking on the snorkeling and kayaking adventure at Sanbar was an unforgettable experience that truly encapsulated the essence of exploring nature's underwater marvels while enjoying the serene beauty of the open waters. The crystal-clear waters offered an unobstructed view of vibrant marine life and mesmerizing coral formations, making the snorkeling experience nothing short of magical. Each moment spent underwater felt like being in a different world, surrounded by a kaleidoscope of colors and life.

The kayaking segment of our adventure was equally impressive. Paddling through the calm waters with the sun casting a golden hue over the landscape was incredibly peaceful and allowed for a unique perspective of the Sanbar's picturesque coastline. The kayaks were well-maintained and easy to maneuver, making the experience enjoyable for both beginners and experienced kayakers alike.

What truly made the experience stand out was the exceptional guidance and support from the staff. Their expertise and passion for the marine environment were evident, as they pointed out interesting flora and fauna, ensuring we didn't miss any of the hidden gems beneath the waves or along the shore.

Overall, the snorkeling and kayaking experience at Sanbar is a must-do for anyone looking to immerse themselves in the beauty of nature, whether underwater or gliding on the surface. It's an ideal adventure for those seeking tranquility, excitement, and a deeper appreciation for the natural world.

サンドバー　キャプテンブルース　天国の海®︎シュノーケリングクルーズ　SUPや浮き輪などレンタルアイテムも！＜午前・午後／日本語クルー＞

All the staff are full of hospitality spirit. スタッフ全員ホスピタリティー精神に溢れています

Reviewed by: えんどー

I was inspired to participate after seeing a former professional baseball player use this service on a TV program during his trip to Hawaii.

I was picked up at the hotel and arrived at the port while enjoying the view of the steep cliffs on the way to Kaneohe Bay. After using the restroom next to the parking lot, I took off my shoes and boarded barefoot.

We moved while observing heart-shaped coral reefs and honu, anchoring near the activity boat displaying the international A flag. Due to the spring tide, the morning tour had lower tides, but it was fully booked. The water depth was about 90 cm. Although the sun was out, the waves and current from the offshore wind felt strong.

I snorkeled with my wife and was able to see the coral, honu, and fish beautifully. Stand-up paddling (SUP) was more challenging than I expected.

On the boat, I enjoyed coffee, apples, and spam while chatting with a female staff member about her trip to Japan, and before I knew it, it was time to return to the port. She pointed out my eye color and told me I have hazel eyes, which led to an interesting discussion about mixed genetics. (We also laughed about what the lesson from Urashima Taro might be.)

After boarding the bus, I realized I couldn't find the belt where I had put my cash. I searched with a staff member who also had hazel eyes named Franky. I was about to give up when I saw Franky desperately searching even in the restroom trash can, and then I noticed something at my neck... Sorry, it was there all along.

We arrived safely at the hotel. Thank you so much!!!

I wanted to try the malasadas from Leonard's Bakery, which the shuttle driver highly recommended, but there wasn't enough time to stop.

I recommend everyone bring marine shoes, a waterproof case for your smartphone, and a hoodie.

Thank you so much to all the staff. See ya!

TV番組で元プロ野球選手が、ハワイに行った際に利用したのを観たのが参加するきっかけとなりました。
ホテルでピックアップされ、カネオヘ湾に向かう途中の急峻な崖を観ながら港に到着。駐車場脇のレストルームで用を足し、シューズを脱いで裸足で乗船。
ハートマークの珊瑚礁、ホヌを観ながら移動、国際A旗が掲げられているアクティビティー船近くに錨泊。
　大潮で条件としては朝のツアーの方が、潮が引いていたのですが、予約が埋まっていました。水深90CMくらいかな。日光は出ていましたが、沖からの風で波、潮の流れがきつい様に感じました。

　バスに乗車後キャッシュを入れたベルトが見当たらない事に気づき、その女性スタッフと同じヘーゼルの瞳を持つ　FRANKYと一緒に探してもらいました。見つからないので、諦め掛けていましたがFRANKYがトイレのゴミ箱まで開け必死に探している姿をみたとき、何気に自分の首元に視線が、、、、、ごめんなさい。有りました。

Raptor tour was awesome! Drive yourself and save a headache.

Reviewed by: Darkman28

The raptor tour at the ranch and the guides where so much fun and would love to do it again.

The transportation is a while nother issue. We needed to be to the bus pick up by 815 to check in for our 830 departure. Was told at pick up no food or drinks on the bus so we thought we could eat when we got there.

Bus left at 830 and arrived at 920 where we where kept in the bus for another 10 plus min for no reason given to us. A bus that had no working bathroom. When released we where told we had to gather for a briefing and couldn't use the restroom or we'd miss it itinerary.

Spent another 10 min for everyone on the bus to get a paper with their activities printed on it. Then we where lead into the ranch and briefed on every actively before being turned loose with just enough time to go-to the bathroom and report for our your at 1015.

After the two hour tour (great time) we had barley enough time to wash and get back on the bus. We where hungry and wanted to eat and shop for souvenirs but instead had to wait till we got back to our hotel at 2pm

No eating 8am to 2pm
Would have spent at least another $100 on food and gifts if given the time. Would never take their transportation again. Find your own way!

ハナウマ湾シュノーケリング　ベテラン日本語ガイドがご案内する少人数制ツアー　貸切プランあり＜半日＞

The sea was very beautiful. 海がとても綺麗だった

Reviewed by: ニッシン

I heard that a wetsuit is essential for the ocean in Hawaii during winter, so I thought it would be convenient to have it included in the tour price without any additional fees. Since I was a beginner in both Hawaii and snorkeling, I hoped for a tour without needing to rent a wetsuit. We went at a leisurely pace and had an incredibly valuable experience, going to very deep spots. The kids seemed to be impressed as well, saying they were scared but excited to see the fish!

冬のハワイの海はウエットスーツ必須ですよ、とのことだったのでもう先にツアー料金に組み込んで頂き、追加料金の発生が無いと便利だなと思った。ハワイもシュノーケルも初心者だったため、ウエットスーツは頼まずツアー希望していた。ゆっくりペースでとても深いところまで行ったりしてすごく貴重な体験をした。子供達も印象的だったようで、怖かったけどお魚さん見れた！と興奮していた。

Although it's called a sandbar, it seems that it only becomes a sandy beach for a few days a year.

In the deepest part, it's about 1 meter deep, I think.

It's nice to be able to enjoy relaxed marine leisure activities in the sea.

There were also some foreigners who brought beer and other drinks (on boats and floating islands).

It doesn't feel like marine sports, so I was able to enjoy it leisurely while taking in the beautiful scenery.

サンドバーとはいうものの、実際に砂浜になるのは年数日だそうです。

１番深い所で1メートルくらいかな？

クアロア・ランチ　乗馬体験(2時間)　映画ロケ地にもなった雄大な大自然を馬に乗って満喫！＜送迎付きプランあり＞

I had a very good experience. 非常に良い体験ができました。

Reviewed by: ama

I will provide information rather than impressions.

When boarding the bus, show your voucher (a display on your smartphone is acceptable). You won't be able to get off for over an hour until you arrive at the destination, so it's best to take care of any restroom needs beforehand. After arriving, you will wait at the top of the stairs right near the bus drop-off point (referred to as Building A from here on). You will also wait here for the return bus after the activity. If you have time before your return, you can purchase souvenirs and meals inside Building A to pass the time. You can also explore the surroundings until it's time to leave.

When it's time to go back, a staff member will come to check participants. You can show the paper mentioned below. A voucher might also be acceptable.

While waiting, your name will be called, and you will receive a paper with the schedule and other details. After that, everyone will move to the adjacent building (referred to as Building B from here on).

The guide will speak rapidly in English (for those who are not proficient in English, it may be too fast to understand; they are likely explaining the different destinations based on the plans).

In this plan, you will move to the building that is labeled for horseback riding (referred to as Building C from here on). It's just a 5-10 second walk right in front of you. Arriving about 10 minutes before the start time is fine. The start time will also be written on the paper you receive. You should be able to find Building C easily. If you are unsure of the location, you can catch the guide after they finish speaking and ask for directions. They will help you if you show your ticket and ask where to go.

The horseback riding experience lasts for two hours, and you will be riding continuously for that time. You won't be able to get off. If you have average physical fitness, it should be no problem, but it might be tough for elderly participants.

When it's time, you will move to Building C for check-in. Here, you will watch a training video, which is entirely in Japanese. The training video is quite short, just a few minutes long, and you might wonder if it's enough, but surprisingly, everyone managed just fine.

You will be provided with a free bag that can hold two sets of items approximately 25*20*5 cm, which can be attached to the horse. You will also borrow a helmet for free. Additionally, if you have a waist pouch, you can wear that. However, all shoulder bags are not allowed, and you will need to either put them in the provided bag or store them in a locker. I didn't use the locker, so I'm not entirely sure, but I believe there was one in Building B (located in the area opposite Building C). Shoulder straps attached to smartphones are also not allowed. If you want to take photos, you will need to take your phone out of the bag. This could lead to the risk of dropping it while taking pictures.

If you drop something, you might be able to ask the guide (who mainly speaks English) for help, but since you'll be riding, you won't be able to use a translation app. If you don't speak English, it may be difficult. Additionally, depending on the environment and situation, it might be quite challenging to search for lost items, so it's advisable to be careful while taking photos.

If the sun is strong, wearing short sleeves is recommended. It's fine if you don't, but bringing water is also a good idea. You can manage to drink while riding if you try.

After horseback riding, participants will not move freely but will line up and move together. The guide will also ride along and move with the group (going back and forth along the line). The horses generally remember the path and will follow the route automatically. However, they may go too fast, too slow, get close to bumping into each other, or stray slightly from the path, so some handling will be necessary.

感想ではなく情報を記載します。

行きのバス乗車時にVoucher（スマホからの表示でOK）を見せます。
現地到着まで１時間以上降りられないのでトイレなどは済ませていたほうが良いです。
現地到着後、バス降り場からすぐの階段を登った場所で一旦待ちます。（以降建物Aと記載）
尚、アクティビティ終了後の帰りのバスもここで待ちます。帰るまでに時間がある場合、建物Aの中でお土産と食事を購入できるので、それで時間を潰すことになります。帰りの時間まで周りの散策などもできます。
帰りは時間になると係の人が来て参加者の確認を行います。下記記載の紙を見せればOKです。Voucherでもいいかも？

待っていると、名前が呼ばれ予定等が記載された紙を貰えます。
その後、隣の建物（以降建物Bと記載）にみんなで移動します。

案内の人が英語でガーッと何か喋ります。（英語が苦手な人は速すぎてまったく聞き取れません、多分プランごとに行き場が分かれるのでその説明をしているのかと）

このプランではhorseback（だったはず）と書いてある建物（以降建物Cと記載）に移動することになります。徒歩５～１０秒位の眼の前の建物です。
プランの開始時間の１０分位前に行けばOKです。開始時間は上記で貰える紙にも書いてあります。建物Cは見回せば見つかると思います。
場所がわからない場合は案内の人が喋り終わったあとに捕まえて確認してください。チケット見せてどこ行けばいいか聞けば教えてくれます。

乗馬体験２時間とありますが。本当にぶっ続けで２時間のります。降りれません。一般的な体力があれば全く問題はありませんがお年寄りだとつらいかも。

時間になったら建物Cに移動し受付を行います。
ここで教習のビデオを見ます。全て日本語です。
教習は数分程度のビデオになります。本当にこれだけでいいのか？と思うほど短いですが意外とみんななんとかなっていました。

乗馬中に持っていける荷物（片手で難しいが乗馬中に取り出すことも可能）は、だいたい25*20*5が２つ、１セットになった馬にセットできるバックを無料で貸してくれます。（ヘルメットも借ります、無料です）
それとは別にウェストポーチであれば別途装備していけます。肩がけタイプは全てNGで上記の貸出バックの中に入れるか、ロッカーにしまっていくことになります。ロッカーは使用しなかったので正確ではないですが、たしか建物Bにあったはずです。（建物Bから見て、建物Cの逆側のエリアにあったはず）
スマホなどの紐付き肩がけもNGです。撮影する場合はバックから取り出して行います。その為、撮影時落とす可能性があり怖いです。
落とした場合は一緒に馬で移動してくれるガイドさん（ほぼ英語のみ）にお願いすれば可能かもしれませんが、乗馬しながらになるので翻訳アプリ等は使えないです。英語ができない場合は多分無理です。
また、環境、状況的に探すのがかなり困難な場合があります、会話ができてもダメな可能性があります。撮影時は気をつけたほうがよいです。

日差しが強い場合は半袖がよいです。無くても大丈夫ですが水を持っていくのもよいです。頑張れば乗馬しながら飲めます。

乗馬後はフリーに移動するのではなく参加者全員で１列になって移動します。ガイドの人も馬にのって一緒に移動（列全体を行ったり来たり）します。馬自体がほぼ道を覚えていて、自動的にルートを移動してくれる感じです。先頭以外の馬も基本的には前の馬を追尾します。といっても早く行き過ぎる、もしくは遅い、前にぶつかりそうになる、少し道をそれるなど完璧ではないので、ある程度の操作が必要となります。

Dining outdoors had its challenges due to the season and weather, and it was a bit cold. We got VIP seats for the show, but I think you can enjoy it from the regular seats as well. The impersonations of Elvis and Michael Jackson seemed to be of high quality.

Reviewed by: めんこい

A disclaimer agreement is sent via email in English beforehand, so all participants need to check it and return it. I used Google Lens to roughly translate it, checked it, and replied, but since it was a boat activity, it was a long document.

Although it was more expensive than other tours, it was nice that we could embark without moving. However, the reception location was hard to find, and the meeting place was also unclear. Although it was supposed to start at 1 PM, we were told it would be from 1 to 8 PM on the day, which made it feel like we were starting off late. (The port call was around 3:30 PM.)

Unfortunately, on the day I participated, we didn’t see any whales or dolphins, just a turtle floating by, and it turned out to be more of a cruise around Diamond and other scenic spots. It seemed like they really tried hard to find something since they are in the business. In such cases, you will receive a reboarding ticket when you disembark. If you wish, you can also make a reservation for the next day on your way back.

I couldn’t ask in detail since I’m not fluent in English, but I was told that the ticket can be used the following year or anytime after. Just let them know over the phone that you have the reboarding ticket to make a reservation. (I believe they also mentioned that you could transfer to other sunset cruises. It seems that if it’s a more expensive tour, there might be a difference in cost.)

The reboarding ticket has the number of participants written on it, and I was told that it cannot be split into individual tickets for two people to use separately. So, it might be better not to set the reboarding for the last day of your trip!

The explanation on the boat right after boarding was, of course, in native-speed English, and the safety instructions were quite long. Since I’m not fluent in English, I didn’t understand it well, which made me a bit cautious about safety.

As for moving around the boat, there are open spaces at the front and back without a roof, seating inside, and some tables. There is a restroom in the starboard lower deck. There’s also a bar counter inside the boat. Free chips and snacks are available on the tables inside. If you sit outside, the staff will come to take your drink orders. Free soft drinks include pineapple, guava, Sprite, Coca-Cola, and water. You can have as many as you want for free, but tips are appreciated.

In the end, we didn’t see any whales, but since you can board again if you don’t see any, it might be nice for those with time to enjoy multiple cruises. By the way, when I asked if there were whales yesterday, they said there were. Personally, I think the afternoon departure, unlike other tours, might increase the chances of seeing them.

The boat rocked quite a bit. It’s dangerous to move around while it’s moving, so it’s best to hold onto the handrails and go slowly. Those who are sensitive might get seasick. The sun was shining brightly, so be careful of sunburn. Since it rocked a lot and I didn’t move around, I couldn’t take many pictures of the boat.

I hope this information is helpful.

（事前に免責事項の同意書が英語のメールで送られてくるので、参加人全員がチェックを入れて戻す必要がありました。グーグルレンズ利用でざっと訳してチェックを入れて返信しましたが、船のアクティビティなので、長い文章でした）
他のツアーより割高だが、移動せずに出航できてよかった。ただし、受付の場所がわかりにくく、集合場所もよくわからず、13時からであるが当日で13－20と言われ、はいはい遅れるのね・・・というスタートでした。（寄港は15：30くらい）

また、仕方ないですが、参加した日は鯨はみられませんでして、イルカもみられず、ちらっと亀が浮いているだけで、ダイヤモンドやその他景色をクルージングしたような形になりました。向こうも商売なので、かなり粘って探してくれたように感じました。
そういう場合は、降りる際に、再乗船できるチケットをいただけます。希望すれば帰りにそのまま翌日の予約もできます。

英語が堪能でないので詳しくは聞けませんでしたが、翌年でもそのあとでも、ずっと使えるよ。電話でその再乗船券を持っていることを伝えて予約してね。とのことでした。（他のサンセットクルーズなどにも振り替えができると説明していたと思われます。より高いツアーであれば差額が必要っぽい）
再乗船のための券が、人数がかかれているものであり、二人別々に使うように一名ずつのチケットに分割することはできないと言われましたので、再利用はその旅行内にできるように、最終日に設定しない方がいいのかもしれません！

乗船した後すぐの船の上での説明は、当然ネイティブスピードの英語での注意事項説明などが、結構長くありまして、英語が堪能でないのでよくわかっておりませんでしたので、安全上ちょっと怪しげだったので気をつけました。

船上の動き方としては、屋根がない前と後ろのスペースと、船内に座れるところ、一部テーブルがあり、船内右舷地下にトイレがあります。船内にバーカウンターもあります。船内のテーブルには無料のチップスなどが置いてあります。外に座っていると、係の方がドリンクのオーダーを取りに来てくれます。無料のソフトドリンクは、パイナップル、グアバ、スプライト、コカコーラ、水などがあります。何杯でも無料ですがチップをちょうだいね。のシステムのようでした。

結果、鯨はみられませんでしたが、みられないとまた船に乗れるので、時間がある方にとっては、何度もクルージングできていいかもしれません。ちなみに昨日は鯨はいたか？と聞いてみたら、いたよー。ということでした。個人的には他のツアーと違っての午後出発なので、時間帯的にみられる可能性が高い低いあるかもなと思ったりしています。

船、結構揺れました。動いている途中の移動は危険なので手すり捕まってゆっくりがよさそうです。弱い人は酔うかもです。日光さんさんとしていて、日焼け危険です。揺れが大きくて移動しなかったので、船の写真はあまりとれませんでした。

以上、参考になれば。

Waikiki Luau with All-You-Can-Eat Buffet Dinner, Fire Dance & Rock-A-Hula Show

Amazing performance with stunning dinner

Reviewed by: Gordon

This combo offers an immersive and entertaining experience that captures the spirit of Hawaiian culture. The evening begins with a warm welcome and traditional lei greeting, setting the tone for an authentic Hawaiian experience.

The dinner itself features a delicious buffet spread showcasing a variety of local dishes, including traditional Hawaiian favorites such as kalua pig, lomi lomi salmon, and poi. The food is fresh, flavorful, and provides a wonderful introduction to Hawaiian cuisine.

The performance showcases the rich cultural heritage of Hawaii and other Pacific Islands, with vibrant costumes, energetic dances, and soulful music that transport audiences to another time and place. One of the highlights of the evening is the fire knife dance, a mesmerizing display of skill and daring that never fails to impress. Watching the performers twirl, spin, and juggle flaming knives against the backdrop of the night sky is truly awe-inspiring and adds an exhilarating finale to the show.

Fun Fireworks!

Reviewed by: Sam T

We have been to Hawaii several times and this was the first time we took the fireworks catamaran sail and it did not disappoint. The crew was FANTASTIC, drinks were great, music was fantastic, and seeing the fireworks and the Waikiki shoreline at night is beautiful. We had so much fun and would do it again!

サンドバー　キャプテンブルース　天国の海®︎シュノーケリングクルーズ　SUPや浮き輪などレンタルアイテムも！＜午前・午後／日本語クルー＞

You can participate with children without any worries! 子連れでも安心して参加できます！

Reviewed by: ナッツ

**Positive Points**
• There are staff members who speak Japanese.
• The staff are kind and provide attentive service.
→ They frequently checked if we were warm enough and were gentle with the children.
• There is a good selection of drinks and snacks.
→ There are warm beverages like tea and cocoa, as well as juice and water.
Spam rice balls are limited to one per person, but you can eat as many snacks as you like.
• The transfer to the sandbar is done by a small boat with a limited number of people.
→ It depends on the number of participants, but this time everyone was Japanese.
• There are plenty of items like floaties available.
→ There were large floaties and floatie boats that children could enjoy.
There was also a boat with a clear bottom to see underwater, so even small children could enjoy snorkeling.
They also lend wet suits when it's cold.
• The bus driver for the transfers was kind.
→ Although he couldn't speak Japanese, he made an effort to communicate.

**Negative Points**
• The restroom is small and not suitable for changing.
→ There is a restroom at the port, but there is a long line, so those with transfers are likely to be late and return wet.

The day we participated, it was quite cold with light rain and a north wind, but we were still able to enjoy ourselves.
In a previous tour, we departed on a large boat with many people from various countries, and after the explanation, it felt like we were free to do as we pleased! However, this time, since it was a smaller group, it was great that we could quickly confirm anything we didn't understand.
Even in bad weather, the staff made various suggestions to ensure our family could enjoy the experience, which greatly increased our satisfaction.

For those participating in a sandbar tour for the first time, I think it would be reassuring to have Japanese-speaking staff and a small group.

Although the price is higher compared to other tours, it was a tour that made me want to participate again.

大勢で出発するため、説明を聞いたら後はご自由に！
という感じだったが、今回は少人数だったため
分からないことがあればすぐに確認できるのが良かった。
悪天候の中でも私達家族全員が楽しめるように
色々提案してくれたりして満足度は高かった。


初めてサンドバーに参加される方は
日本語スタッフが居て少人数なので
安心して参加できるのでは無いかと思う。

他のツアーに比べて金額は高いけれど
また参加したいと思えるツアーだった。

サンドバー シュノーケリングクルーズ　バナナボートなど選べるプラン　海に浮かぶラウンジ&船上ライブミュージック　アルコール購入可 ＜午前・午後／日本語クルー＞

There were Japanese people on site, and the person who explained things was able to converse in Japanese, which made me feel at ease and enjoy the experience. 現地には日本人の方がいて、説明された方も日本語で会話ができる方で安心して楽しめました。

Reviewed by: クマ

The wind was cold, but the sunshine was warm, and the seawater wasn't too cold, so I was able to enjoy the ocean until the end. At the snorkeling and kayaking spots, the staff provided support, so I could enjoy myself with peace of mind. Onboard, there was live music, and we had unlimited donuts and drinks, making it enjoyable even while on the boat.

風は冷たかったですが、日差しは暖かく、海水も冷た過ぎず、最後まで海の中で楽しめました。
シュノーケルの所やカヤックの所には、スタッフがサポートしてくれましたので安心して楽しむことがでしました。
船内では、生演奏の中、ドーナツ・飲み物が飲み放題で、船内にいても楽しめました。

2-Hour Jurassic Valley Kualoa Ranch ATV Raptor Adventure Tour - Most Popular!

Fun, informative & gorgeous!

Reviewed by: Sue K

My husband is 65 and I’m almost 60…never even driven an ATV before, and this was SO much fun! I would do it again!! Our guides were great. The UTVs rode crazy well over the rough terrain. It was dusty and dry the day we went-wear the face covering they provide and goggles. The vehicles are easy to drive and the path you follow behind the guide are bumpy and fun. The only thing I was bummed about is that we didn’t get to stop at the yard of bones for a picture. I think we ran a little behind. We needed about 10-15 more mins in our tour. All in all it was great fun, and we’d do it again if we come back to Oahu!
