All Reviews for Oahu Snorkeling Tours

It was disappointing that the weather was cloudy, but there were Japanese staff members, and I was able to have fun. I want to try again and see a sunny sandbar!

お天気が曇りだったのが残念でしたが、日本人のスタッフの方もいて、楽しく遊ぶことができました。たまリベンジして、晴れたサンドバーを見たいです！

If you sit in the front, there are snorkeling sets and life jackets available, so many people come back to return wet items after use, and even if you put your belongings in the chair, seawater will splash and get them wet. Be sure to check the tide levels. When I was there, the shallow areas were about ankle-deep, and the sandy beach was not visible above ground. When we returned to the port, the afternoon group had arrived, but I think it had become normally deep by the time we left.

前方に座る場合は、シュノーケルセットやライフジャケットがあるので、使用後濡れたものを返却しにくる人多数で、椅子の中に荷物を入れていても、海水が飛んでくるので濡れます。潮の引き具合は必ず調査して下さい。私の時は浅い所がくるぶしくらい、砂浜は地上には現れていませんでした。港へ帰ると午後便の方々が来ていまさしたが、行く頃には普通に深くなっていたと思います。

I visited for a wedding and honeymoon trip.
**Exploring the Sandbar**
I checked the tide levels in Kaneohe Bay in advance and booked the "morning plan" for the second day of our itinerary. Since we participated at low tide, I was able to fully enjoy the strange sensation of standing in the middle of the ocean! It seems that only Captain Bruce can dock at the shallowest point. Just standing there and taking in the beautiful scenery around me was refreshing and enjoyable.
**Snorkeling Point**
It felt like everyone who wanted to snorkel lined up and swam together. We wanted to relax freely, so we borrowed a float and played instead of participating. It was quite cold after getting out of the water, so the warm soup was very appreciated.
**Light Snacks**
As soon as we got on the boat, we were served bread and drinks, and after arriving at the snorkeling point, light snacks were provided buffet-style. It was more substantial than I had imagined, so I wished I had gone easy on breakfast.

結婚式＆ハネムーン旅行で訪れました。
【サンドバー散策】
事前にカネオヘ湾の潮位を調べてから、旅程２日目に『午前プラン』を予約しました。干潮時に参加できたので、海の真ん中に立っている不思議な感覚を存分に味わえました！キャプテン・ブルースさんしか停泊できない一番浅いポイントらしいです。その場に立って、周りの美しい景色を眺めているだけで清々しく、楽しかったです。
【シュノーケルポイント】
希望者全員で並んで泳いで行くかんじでした。私たちは自由にのんびりしたかったので、参加せず浮き輪を借りて遊んでいました。海から上がった後は結構寒かったので、温かいスープはとてもありがたかったです。
【軽食】
船に乗ってすぐパンと飲み物が、シュノーケルポイントに着いてからバイキング形式で軽食が出ました。想像以上に充実していたので、朝食を控えめにしておけばよかったなと思いました。

I always go snorkeling, but I booked this tour because I wanted to swim with dolphins. It takes a little time to get to the location, but the sea is clear. When we spotted the dolphins, we all jumped into the water. The dolphins swam gracefully in the deep water.

It might be a bit different from what you imagine when you see it on TV, but wild dolphins are amazing. We also got to go canoeing, which was fantastic. The hamburger we had at the end was the best for the kids.

シュノーケリングは、いつもしているがイルカと泳ぎたいというリクエストに、このツアーに予約をしました。場所までは、少し時間がかかりますが、海は澄んでいます。イルカ発見いっせいに海へ。イルカは深いところを優雅に泳いでいます。
　テレビで見ているような一緒に泳ぐを想像するとちょっと違うかも。しかし野生のイルカ最高です。そのほかに、カヌーなどもさせていただいて。最高。最後に食べたハンバーガーが子供たち最高でしたということです。

It was cloudy, so the sea was a bit murky, but I really enjoyed the sandbar! It was totally fine even for snorkeling beginners! I want to participate again, and I hope it will be sunny next time! If the tide isn't too high, I would like to walk on the island. However, seeing the sea turtles and manta rays was a great memory.

曇ってたから海も少し濁ってましたが、サンドバー満喫！シュノーケリング初心者でも全然おっけー！！でした。次も参加したいなと思うので、次こそ晴れてるといいな！潮も満ちすぎてなかったら、島を歩きたいです。でもウミガメとマンタがみれたのは、いい思い出です。

This was my second time at the sandbar, and it felt like a heavenly beach with a white sandy path in the middle of the blue sea, with water depth up to my shins. I encountered sea turtles at the snorkeling spot, and above all, the hamburgers eaten on the boat after the activities in the sea were incredibly delicious! They are more memorable than any gourmet burger listed in guidebooks. I recommend checking the tide schedule before making a reservation.

2度目のサンドバーでしたが、青い海の真ん中に白い砂の道、水深はスネぐらいでまずまずの天国の海感でした。
シュノーケリングスポットでは海亀にも遭遇したし、なにより海でのアクティビティ後に船の上で食べるハンバーガーはなんて美味しいのでしょう！ ガイドブックに載っているどのグルメバーガーより想い出に残ります。
潮の満ち引きを調べての申し込みをお勧めします。

Cracias por sus atenciones y amabilidad y de igual forma gracias por hacer de nuestra luna de miel algo inolvidable

Saw many turtles of all sizes. There were 101 people registered for this trip when I went and 2 boats. Even though there were 101 people, the view + experience overlapped everything.
Negative part: Bathroom was very unclean so I did not use the restroom at all during the trip.
Tip: Bring hand sanitizer since it is 50 people to a boat with 1 bathroom that is questionable..
Overall: A must see.

The water level was high, but the weather was nice, the sea was beautiful, and I really enjoyed my first snorkeling experience. After coming out of the sea, they had prepared warm drinks, which was a nice touch for my chilled body. Also, the hamburgers eaten on the water were exceptional, and I definitely want to join again when I go to Hawaii. I hope to see even more beautiful scenery next time! ^^

水面は高かったけど、天気もよく、海もきれいで、初シュノーケリングもとても楽しめました。
海からあがったら温かい飲み物を準備してくれていて、冷えた体にはうれしかったです。
また、海の上で食べるハンバーガーは格別でハワイに行く際にはぜひまた参加したいです。
そのときはもっときれいな景色が見れるといいな＾＾

If you're going to Hawaii, you definitely want to see the emerald-colored sea! I joined four friends to experience this. As expected in Hawaii, not only did we see the emerald color, but we also enjoyed various shades of blue in the ocean, which was very satisfying. Although I couldn't swim with the sea turtles as I had hoped, I did get to meet some gracefully swimming sea turtles. We had time to snorkel and had fun swimming with various fish besides the sea turtles. The meal was delicious, especially the hamburgers that we made ourselves with our favorite ingredients, and there were also fruits available. If I have the chance to go to Hawaii again, I would love to spend some relaxing time at the sandbar.

ハワイに行くなら、エメラルド色の海が見たい！そこで遊びたい！と4人の友だちと参加しました。さすがにハワイです。エメラルド色だけでなく、いろいろと違った色の”青い海”を見ることができ、大満足です。期待していた、ウミガメと一緒に泳ぐことはできませんでしたが、悠々と泳いできいるウミガメに会うことはできました。シュノーケルをして遊ぶ時間があり、ウミガメ以外の魚たちとは一緒に泳ぐことができ、楽しかったです。食事は、自分で好きな食材をはさんで作るハンバーガーは美味しかったし、フルーツもありました。また、ハワイに行く機会があれば、是非、サンドバーでゆっくり過ごしたいです。

I saw it in a guidebook and thought, "What is this? It's beautiful! Is there really a place like this?" I was so excited to join the tour! The guide was fluent in Japanese, funny, and I was completely satisfied!

Finally, we arrived at the sandbar! It was just too beautiful! I couldn't help but shout, "It's so pretty!"

If I go to Hawaii again, I will definitely visit again!

ガイドブックでみて、なにこれー、綺麗、ほんとにこんなとこがあるのー？見てみたい！！と思い、わくわくどきどきでツアーに参加♩
ガイドさんは日本語ペラペラだし面白いし大満足！
いざ、サンドバー！ほんと綺麗すぎる！絶対さけんでしまう、きれーって笑
ハワイ行ったら絶対また行く！

Fabulous trip. Professional staff. Great snorkels and goggles. Safe. Loads of turtles to see. Really special way to see Waikiki and turtle canyon

I was able to swim with sea turtles by chance and see coral fish. The sea was also clear and very beautiful! The barbecue hamburgers were also very delicious! Thank you very much! (^ ^)

ウミガメと偶然にも泳げたり、珊瑚の魚をみたり
海も透明でとっても綺麗でした！バーベキューのハンバーガーもとても美味しいかったです！
ありがとうございました(^ ^)

I was really looking forward to my first trip to Hawaii. Even for those who can't swim, it was enjoyable and incredibly beautiful. I believe this is a tour that everyone should participate in at least once. The staff were very accommodating, and it truly became a wonderful memory.

初めてのハワイで、1番楽しみにしておりました。
泳げない人でも楽しめ、とにかく綺麗でした。絶対に1度は参加するべきツアーだと思います。
スタッフの方の対応もよく、本当によい思い出になりました。

Highly recommend doing this!! A very very amazing and memorable experience

we spend really good time and experienced very lucky things. Thank you for your hospitality and great time!!!

The sandbar had water up to my waist due to the rising tide, but it felt great to float around with a borrowed life jacket. When I asked for photos, they took a variety of shots, and I was very satisfied. During snorkeling, I encountered many fish and even a sea turtle. The hamburger was delicious, and the guide was kind, so I’m glad I participated.

サンドバーは潮が上がっていて腰位まで水がありましたが、ライフジャケットを借りてプカプカ浮いているととても気持ちが良かったです。
写真をお願いすると色々な構図で撮ってもらえて大満足。
シュノーケリングでは沢山の魚とウミガメにも会えました。
ハンバーガーも美味しかったしガイドの方も親切だったので参加して良かったです。

Such a fun experience!!! Jenner was our guide when we got picked up by the bus and he was a great guide all throughout. Antonio our captain was also friendly and just the whole experience was amazing all very friendly and try their best to welcome and guide you.

I visited Sandbar for the first time this time, and it was beautiful. I've been to quite a few beautiful beaches in the Philippines, but Sandbar was fresh and beautiful in a different way. I would love to go again when I visit Hawaii. The staff were friendly and nice as well. During the final sea turtle watch snorkeling, a sea turtle was swimming right below us. I got so caught up in it with my child. It was truly moving.

今回初めてサンドバーに行きましたがきれいでした。きれいな海はフィリピンでかなり行ってましたが、サンドバーは別な意味で新鮮できれいなところでした。またハワイに行ったら行きたいですね。スタッフも気さくでよかったです。最後のウミガメウオッチのシュノーケリングではウミガメが真下を泳いでいました。子供と一緒に夢中になっておっかけてしまいました。本当に感動しました。

So much fun! Something my husband and I could do every day for the rest of our lives!!! Thanks for the great memories, we will cherish them always!

I participated in the dolphin swimming tour for the fourth time this time. So far, I've enjoyed a 100% encounter rate. The Hawaiian crew on the boat is lively and makes it easy to connect with them. Next time, I think I will join the manta tour on the Big Island. Mahalo.

今回で４回目の天然イルカて泳ぐツアーに参加しました。現在の処100%の遭遇率で楽しませてもらっています。船のハワイアンのクルー達もノリノリで自然と打ち解けさせてくれます。次回はハワイ島のマンタツアーにも参加してみょうと思っています。mahalo

We were able to land on the sandbar and see turtles. Although we were the only family with children, we felt a bit anxious, but they made arrangements for us to sit on the boat and took care of our kids for a short time during snorkeling, allowing us to enjoy snorkeling as a couple. I'm glad we participated.

サンドバーにも上陸できたし、亀も見れました。
子供連れが私達家族だけで少し不安でしたが、船上でも座れるように配慮してくださったり、シュノーケルの間、わずかな時間ですが子供をあやして見守っていてくださり、夫婦でシュノーケルを楽しむことができました。
参加して良かったです。

The instructor was very energetic and made it a lot of fun! It was unfortunate that the temperature was low and it rained the whole time, but I was super excited to see a sea turtle up close while snorkeling! I was also able to watch it swim, and the barbecue for lunch was delicious♡ I want to try again on a nice day!!

インストラクターの方がテンション高くて、たくさん楽しませてくれました！
気温が低くて、ずっと雨が降っていたのが残念だったけど、シュノーケルのときに海ガメを生で見る事が出来て大興奮！泳いでる様子もウォッチングできて、おひるのバーベキューも美味しかったです♡
天気の良い日にリベンジしたい！！

I've been to Oahu many times. This trip is a must. Snorkeling with the green sea turtles is amazing! They pop up right under you and you have to back up a bit. There is nothing quite like being one with nature.

I would recommend this to any age group.

This is a tour where you can experience the much-talked-about sandbar. The itinerary includes hotel → port → turtle watching → sandbar → snorkeling → lunch.

Even though I can't swim at all, I was able to fully enjoy the benefits of the life jacket on this tour. After swimming for a while, we had a simple meal on the boat, and the sandwiches were surprisingly delicious.

While snorkeling with tropical fish, kicking your legs is strictly prohibited. Not only does it stir up sand and make visibility poor, but it also cruelly kicks up the people behind you. If you don't move using just your hands, you might end up like me, with bruises on your face and injuries from your nails. For those participating, please make sure not to kick your legs!

各所で噂のサンドバー体験ができるツアーです。
ホテル→港→ウミガメウォッチ→サンドバー→シュノーケル→ランチといった流れのツアーになります。
まったく泳げない私ではありましたが、ライフジャケットの恩恵を存分に味わえるツアーでした。
ひとしきり泳いだ後の、船上での簡単な食事、サンドウィッチが食べれますが、非常に美味しく感じられました。

熱帯魚と泳ぐシュノーケルですが、バタ足は厳禁です。
砂塵が舞い見えなくなるどころか、後ろの人を無情にも蹴り上げまくります。
手だけで進まないと、私のように顔に青タンや爪による負傷者が続出します。
参加される方は、是非ともバタ足だけはしないようにしましょう。

I decided to try this popular optional tour. A sea turtle was right in front of me, and I was able to swim with it, which was a very memorable experience. The hamburger for lunch was also juicy and delicious.

人気のオプションツアーだったので頼んでみました。ウミガメがすぐ目の前にいて一緒に泳ぐことができとても思い出に残りました。ランチのハンバーガーも肉がジューシィーで美味しかったです。

This was an excellent day out for the two of us. Unfortunately I had difficulty snorkelling but was not pressured by the staff to keep trying. My boyfriend saw some amazing sights while snorkelling and snuba-ing, including a turtle (see photo). We received complimentary drinks (including alcohol) and lunch was either a chicken or pulled pork sandwich which was lovely. Cameron the snuba instructor was very nice and informative and tried his best to give us an enjoyable trip.

This was a great beach day at Kailua Beach! We were picked up by mini van right at our hotel and taken to a small plaza containing the water sports store sponsoring the activity. The people in the store were pleasant and showed us the lockers and gave us our vouchers for the included lunch. Also included was the use of boogie boards and beach chairs. The beach is a short walk from the plaza so keep in mind that you will need to carry things with you. Towels not included so be sure to bring your own! The beach itself is gorgeous and clean with that beautiful blue iridescent water! We set up shop under a tree and were happy there all day. There are facilities at the beach. While the food places were open at 10:00 AM, we chose to wait until 12:30 to eat. We opted for the pizza and drink. The pizza was the closest to true NY style we had in Hawaii...we were very impressed! It says one slice however the slice is actually a quarter of a very large pie and they cut it in two for you so it is two good sized slices! At the end of the day we headed back to the store and turned in our beach things we had borrowed and browsed the gift shop. A great day!

The weather was unfortunate, but the crew really lifted our spirits, and we had a great time despite the bad weather! I would love to participate again.

あいにくの天気でしたが、クルーのみなさんが盛り上げてくださり、天気が悪くてもかなり楽しめました！また参加したいです。

It was a unique experience to be standing in the sea with almost all sand visible. Snorkeling was also amazing; it felt great to be swimming alongside the fish.

ほぼ砂が見えている状態だったので、海の中で立っているという非日常的体験が良かった。
シュノーケルも、魚と一緒に泳いでいる気分が最高だった。
