The water level was higher than I expected, and I couldn't find any sandy beaches, but I was able to enjoy snorkeling as a result.
Also, the rental stand-up paddleboards (SUP) were very popular, so if you don't go early, you'll have to wait a long time.
思ってたより水位が高く、砂浜には出会えませんでしたがその分シュノーケリングが堪能できました。
また、レンタルできるSUPはとても人気だったため、早く行かないと長い時間待つことになります。

It started with a live performance on the boat, followed by bumper tubes and banana boat rides, and then snorkeling, which was full of fun! We even encountered a sea turtle (^^) And finally, we indulged in the live performance once again... I sincerely pray for the reconstruction of Maui.
船上ライブに始まり、バンパーチューブ&バナナボートその後シュノーケリングと楽しさ満載でした!
ウミガメにも遭遇して(^^)
そして最後に再びライブに酔いしれ…

This was my third time kayaking, so I didn't take a guide. Before departure, I checked a 10-minute explanation on a tablet. We transported the kayak on a cart for about five minutes to the nearby riverbank, then lifted it off the cart and into the water. This was my first experience in this area, so I was a bit nervous but felt happy when I succeeded. When we reached the beach, a young man asked in English, "It's from a nearby shop, do you need support?" I thought I would be asked for a tip, so I declined with a "No thank you" (he might have been genuinely kind; another young man helped pull the kayak up to the sandy beach when we were leaving).
The uninhabited island seemed to be about 300 meters away, but it was difficult to get on the kayak at the water's edge. We laughed while getting on, even as we tipped over. After that, we paddled right and left, struggling to balance our power, and with the waves, I felt a bit anxious about whether we would be okay. After about ten minutes, we got into a rhythm and arrived at the uninhabited island in about twenty minutes.
After that, we paddled steadily towards the coral reef at Lanikai Beach. We borrowed snorkeling gear, left the kayak on the beach, and went snorkeling. I had put my sunglasses, shoes, and boots in a mesh bag for snorkeling, but since I didn't secure it properly, some of the items floated away. I found a few later, but remember to close the bag tightly. This took about three hours.
After eating, we rented bicycles and went cycling. I had planned to try bodyboarding, but the waves weren't that strong. I paddled quite hard, so I didn't have the energy to think about anything else, which gave me a good sense of fatigue, satisfaction, and accomplishment. The sea and the scenery were very beautiful, and I saw sea turtles swimming.
カヤックは3回目くらいですので、ガイドはつけませんでした。
出発前にタブレットで10分程度の説明を確認してから出発です。
台車に載せてあるカヤックを、5分くらい近くの川べりまで運んでから、台車からおろして、よいしょと川へ。この辺も初体験なのでちょっとドキドキしながら、できた!とうれしい。浜辺に着くと、お兄さんが「近くのショップのものだが、サポートが必要か?」と英語で聞いてくるので、きっとチップを取られると思い、No thank youとお断り(本当は親切かもしれません。帰るとき別のお兄さんがカヤックを砂浜まで引き上げて助けてくれました。)。
無人島は300mくらい先のようですが、まず波打ち際でカヤックに乗るのが難しい。沈しながら、笑いながら乗船。その後は、右に行ったり、左に行ったり、二人のパワーバランスが揃わず、波もあり、大丈夫なのか?とちょっと不安になりました。10分くらいすると調子も出てきて、20分くらいで無人島に到着。
その後は、ラニカイビーチのサンゴ礁を目指してひたすら漕ぐ。シュノーケリングのセットを借りたので、浜辺にカヤックを置いて、シュノーケリング。シュノーケリングを入れる網袋にサングラス、靴、ブーツなどをいれていましたが、口をしっかり留めなかったので、中に入れていたものが流れてしまいました。いくつかはその後見つかりましたが。口をしっかり締めることをお忘れなく。これで3時間くらい。
食後、自転車を借りてサイクリング。ボディーボードをやろうと思っていましたが、それほどの波はありませんでした。
結構必死に漕いだので、他のことを考える余裕もなく、良い疲労感と満足感、そして達成感が得られました。海も景色もとても綺麗でした。ウミガメが泳いでいました。

There was absolutely no white sandy beach due to high tide. As for snorkeling, the water wasn't particularly clear, and while the staff fed the fish to attract them, there were only a few dark-colored ones; it wasn't an experience that would leave you in awe with beautiful fish.
There are many jagged corals, so going barefoot is dangerous. It really hurts if you bump into them, so I recommend wearing marine shoes.
It was my first time on a banana tube, and it was a lot of fun. I almost fell off several times but managed to hold on tightly and stay safe. I didn't try the banana boat, but I think the bumper tube is more thrilling and allows you to scream your heart out.
Lastly, even though it was midsummer, it was incredibly cold. They only have cold drinks available. Make sure to bring a jacket and a beach towel. Even wearing a hoodie, it was cold. By the way, they sell long-sleeved hoodies at ABC as well. In Hawaii, it’s freezing inside buildings, on buses, and on boats.
満潮なのか白い砂浜全くありませんでした。それよりも、シュノーケルですが海は特に透明でもなく、魚もスタッフがエサをあげて寄ってこさせてはいますが、黒っぽいのが少しいるだけで、きれいな魚がたくさんいて感動するようなことはありませんでした。
ゴツゴツのサンゴがたくさんあるので素足は危ないです。当たると本当に痛いですのでマリンシューズを履くことをおすすめします。
バンパーチューブは初めてだったのでとても楽しかった。何度も落ちそうになったけど必死にしがみついてなんとか無事でした。バナナボートはやりませんでしたが、バンパーチューブのほうが思いっきり叫べるしスリリングで楽しいと思います。
最後に、真夏でしたがまじで死ぬほど寒いです。飲み物は冷たいものしかありません。必ず上着、ビーチタオルを持っていってください。パーカー着ても寒い。ちなみにABCでも長袖のパーカーなど売っています。ハワイは建物内もバスも船の上も死ぬほど寒いです。
Thank you for participating in the KBOS Sandbar Tour.
Although the weather wasn't very good that day, resulting in low water clarity and cold temperatures, I'm glad to hear that you enjoyed activities like the bumper tube.
Thank you also for your valuable suggestions.
We hope you'll come back next time to experience a sunny sandbar.
The entire crew is looking forward to welcoming you.

We took a boat from the port, which we reached by bus in about an hour from Ala Moana. The live music was lovely, and the lunch was quite tasty.
On that day, the wind was strong and the water was cold, so I returned to the boat after wading in up to my waist. Since my condition and the water temperature didn't match well, I gave it four stars.
My two college-aged daughters enjoyed kayaking, stand-up paddleboarding, and swimming for a full two and a half hours. Most of the other guests were having fun in the sea.
アラモアナからバスで1時間くらいで到着した港で船に乗りました。生演奏もステキで、ランチも割とおいしかったです。
この日は風邪が強く、水が冷たかったので、私は腰まで入水したところで船に戻りました涙
私の体調と水温が相性が合わなかったので星4つにさせてもらいました。
大学生の娘ふたりは、2時間半たっぷりとカヤック、サップ、泳ぎと楽しんでいました。ほとんどの他の方々は海で楽しんでおられました。

We participated as a family of four (two boys in 6th and 4th grade). The pickup was smooth, and the shuttle bus was new and comfortable. There was one Japanese female staff member on site, which made the children feel at ease. We checked the low tide times in advance and made a reservation, so we were able to play in water that was about thigh-deep at the sandbar. By the time we returned to the boat, the water level had risen significantly, which surprised the kids (it was a great experience). The wind was strong, and the SUP and canoe were quickly swept away, but we had plenty of fun. The SUP had a loose screw and was exposed, which could have caused injuries. The snorkeling was just for fun, so if you're looking for a more serious snorkeling experience, I recommend a different tour. There were jellyfish along the way, but the staff informed us, so we avoided getting stung. I'm glad I brought aqua shoes, as there were a lot of corals, and going barefoot could lead to injuries. We didn't see any sea turtles on this tour, but it seems like they were spotted on another tour, so I plan to try again someday. I recommend arriving a bit earlier than the meeting time to change clothes, as there are only 1-2 changing rooms for passengers. The beautiful sandbar, delicious donuts, and the music along the way created a wonderful atmosphere and made for a fun memory!☆
家族4人(小6小4男児)で参加しました。ピックアップもスムーズで送迎バスも新しく快適でした。現地には日本人女性スタッフが1人がいたので子供たちも安心でした。肝心のサンドバーは事前に干潮時間を調べて予約したので太もも位の高さで遊べました。船に戻る頃には大分水位が上がっていたので子供たちもびっくりしていました(いい体験です)。風が強くSUPやカヌーはすぐ流されてしまいましたが十分楽しめました。SUPからねじが外れていてむき出しでケガしそうでした。シュノーケリングは遊び程度なので本格的なシュノーケリングがしたい方は別のツアーをおすすめします。途中毒クラゲもいましたがスタッフが教えてくれたので刺されずに済みました。持って行ってよかったのがアクアシューズです。サンゴがいっぱいあるので素足だとケガすると思います。このツアーではウミガメは見れず、別のツアーでは見れたようなのでいつかリベンジします。集合時間よりも早めに上がって着替えを済ませることをおススメします。(乗客対して更衣室が1~2か所しかありません)美しいサンドバーはもちろん、美味しいドーナツも道中の演奏も雰囲気がよく楽しい思い出になりました☆

I was first grateful that there were Japanese staff members since I am not fluent in English. The explanations were very clear. All the staff were cheerful and very kind, often engaging in conversation. The donuts were delicious, and there was plenty of water available.
We were able to enjoy both the banana boat and the bumper tube, and there were many types of activities to choose from. The wonderful live music was soothing, and we had a really fun time!
The weather wasn't great, so the water wasn't clear, and it was cold when the wind blew. It seems that it rains every day due to the geography, so there's not much to be done about that. I recommend wearing a rash guard.
英語が堪能でないので、日本人スタッフがいてくれたことにまず感謝でした。説明がよくわかりました。スタッフの方は皆さん明るくて、話しかけてくれたりしてとても優しかったです。ドーナツも美味しかったし、水分もたくさん用意されてました。
バナナボート、バンパーチューブ両方できて、遊べる種類もたくさんあるし、素晴らしい生演奏に癒されて、とても楽しい時間でした!

The meeting place was easy to find, and traveling by car was comfortable. (Since it was quite a long ride and there were some rough roads, those who are prone to motion sickness might want to have some medication on hand.)
There were about 50 to 60 people on the boat, which was more than I expected. The MC created a lively atmosphere, making it a fun experience. The meal consisted of water, juice, and donuts, which were quite simple, and it was a self-service style. Some participants from other countries brought alcohol and snacks, and there didn't seem to be any restrictions on that, so if you want to enjoy your meal, it might be better to prepare something in advance.
As for the sandbar, it was initially cold due to the weather, and it didn't look very beautiful at first, but I thought it would be a shame not to try canoeing or stand-up paddleboarding, which turned out to be enjoyable. It seems that we were able to observe large fish while snorkeling!
At the end, the sun came out, and I was able to see the scenery I had imagined, which was great. It might just have been the day I experienced, but I thought that perhaps the temperature rises more in the afternoon than in the early morning.
Overall, the staff were friendly and fun, and I had a wonderful experience.
集合場所は分かりやすく車での移動も快適でした。
(かなり長い間乗るのと、険しい道もあったので車酔いをいやすい方は酔い止めがあったほうがいいかもしれません)
船には50人〜60人くらいはいたでしょうか、想像よりも多くの人が乗っていてMCの方の盛り上げもありわいわいとした雰囲気で楽しかったです。
食事は水、ジュース、ドーナツという割と簡素なもので自分で取りに行くスタイルでした。他の国の参加者の方でお酒や軽食を持参している方がおり、特に禁止されている様子もなかったので、食事を楽しみたい方は自分で事前に用意したほうがいいかもしれません。
肝心のサンドバーははじめは天気の関係で寒くそこまで綺麗に見えなかったのですが、
せっかくだと思いカヌーやSUPに乗ってみることができて楽しかったです。シュノーケリングでは大きい魚を観察できたようです!
終わりぎわのタイミングで日がでてきて想像していた景色を見ることができたのでよかったです。体験した日だけなのかもしれませんがもしかしたら朝イチよりお昼からの方が気温も上がっていいのかも?と思いました。
総じてスタッフの方も親切で楽しく、とてもいい経験ができました。

Let me start by saying this is a must do when visiting o’ahu. The views from the sandbar are incredible. I’m 4’10” and I think the water at the sandbar come up to my waistline. It took us about 40 minutes to paddle out to it because I’m not the most athletic. Lol
The kayak tour did include a life jacket. We rented a dry bag and an anchor for $5. And anchor is a must if you want to hang out at the sandbar or snorkel at one of the reefs.
Speaking of reefs, what an experience! I saw plenty of beautiful fish and turtles. “Park” your kayak on the sandy area and do not step on the coral. They are very sensitive. If you park up by the corals, you’ll see plenty of fish and turtles popping in and out.
The staff was friendly and informative. They gave us the best route to be able to go to the sandbar and the reefs. We followed instructions and did exactly as we were told as everyone should.
You’ll have a great time if you follow the rules and respect the ocean and its animals!
Aloha! Thank you so much for joining us for a kayak and snorkel adventure! And thank you for taking the time to leave this awesome review and feedback! We really appreciate that. First of all I am so happy to hear that our staff treated you well and gave you good info that hopefully contributed to your having a great time.

Sorry in advance. Not much of a writer here but we really wanted to share our experience.
Pros:
- The whole team were amazing! They screamed aloha spirit. My personal favorite was the blonde gentleman who spoke Japanese and Korean.
- live band was a hit! Both singers were amazing!
- food was basic but good. It was nicely plated as well which I was NOT expecting. Center piece was a nice touch.
- Really good bang for your buck with all the activities.
Con:
Not really reflective of the crew but the sandbar was not as shallow as I expected. Obviously it depends on the ocean and tides etc.

When my family and I first got to the dock we were greeted by the friendly boat crew. They were very personable and caring. On the adventure, we made our way to the sandbar and were able to snorkel, paddleboard, canoe, and relax on the water deck. The sandbar was perfect to stand on and was not deep. The reef was beautiful to look at while snorkeling. My family and I paid extra for the intertube and banana boat, this experience was AWESOME!! You were asked what speed you would like the ride. We wore life jackets and we felt very safe even though this was an extreme water activity. The live music was wonderful, while the overall atmosphere was family oriented. This was our favorite excursion!! If you want a day to play in the water and have fun with the family, this is the excursion for you.
Mahalo for your review! We're so glad you and your family enjoyed our tour. -Team KBOS

Staff were friendly and the musicians were great! Had the best time. Considering you get a boat ride to the sandbar and all of the activities when you get there, this has to be the best bang for your buck anywhere.

There was a live performance on the boat, which was enjoyable. During snorkeling, I was able to see many fish even in shallow areas, which was delightful. Since I had been in the water for a long time, it was cold on the way back on the boat, so I think it would be good to spend some free time in the sun.
船の中でもLive演奏があり楽しめました。シュノーケリングは足がつくところでもたくさんの魚を見られて満喫です。ずっと海に入っていたので帰りの船の中が寒かったので日に当たりながら自由時間を過ごされるとよいと思います。

Unfortunately, the sandbar didn't appear.
But the sea was very beautiful, and the activities were fun. The live band on the way there and back was really great.
I want to challenge myself to see the sandbar again someday.
サンドバーは残念ながら現れませんでした。
でもとても海がキレイでアクティビティも楽しかったです。行き帰りの生バンドもめちゃくちゃよかった。
またいつかサンドバーを見にチャレンジしたいです。
It seems that the water level was high. The ocean conditions vary daily and cannot be controlled, but I am very happy to hear that you enjoyed the beautiful waters of Hawaii. Thank you for participating in the tour. From all of us at KBOS.
水位が高かったようですね、海の状況は日々異なりコントロール出来ませんが、ハワイのきれいな海を楽しんで頂けた様で大変嬉しく思っています。この度はツアーへのご参加ありがとうございました。 KBOS スタッフ一同
