We departed from West Oahu, but unfortunately, we didn't see a single whale that day. We also experienced a cruise departing from Waikiki as a backup service from the same company, but we still didn't encounter any whales! However, if you don't see any whales, you receive a free boarding ticket for the next time, so if you have flexibility in your schedule, you can reschedule for another day. If you're visiting for about five days, you might not have time to switch to another day, so it's a bit of a gamble... There were no Japanese crew members, so everything was in English. Our family was the only Japanese guests. But as long as you can find the departure location, you should be fine even if you don't understand English.
西オアフから出発ですが、その日は残念ながら1頭も会えず。
リベンジでワイキキからも出発するクルーズ(同じ会社の振り替えサービス)も体験しましたが、くじらに会えず!
ただ、見れなかった場合は次回無料乗船券がもらえるので、日程的に余裕がある人は違う日に振り替えられます。5日くらいの観光できているとほかの日に振り替える時間がないと思うので、一か八かですね・・・。
日本人のクルーはいませんので、すべて英語です。
日本人客は私たち家族だけでした。でも出発場所にさえちゃんとたどり着ければ英語がわからなくても大丈夫です。

The experience was great! The food was good and the service great. We did the 3-star dinner and it was so much fun. We did the private table upgrade, which is worth the extra cost. Also, pay a little extra to have them pick you up with their shuttle service. Overall, we highly recommend this experience!!!

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!

I was unsure whether to add the all-you-can-drink soft drinks, but I'm glad I did. Since it's hot, I could drink as much as I wanted without having to go back to the locker each time to throw away my cups. I also opted for the shuttle service. The slides had almost no wait, and even when I did wait, it was less than 5 minutes! With 5 hours, you can go around all the slides twice. I got really sunburned, so I recommend applying sunscreen frequently. The locker was available for the whole day, and I rented a small one for $15.
ソフトドリンク飲み放題つけるか迷いましたがつけてよかったです。暑いので何回でも飲めるのとすぐ捨てられるからいちいちロッカーに行かなくてすみます。送迎もつけました。スライダーはほぼ並ばずで待っても5分未満でした!5時間あれば全スライダー2周はできます。日焼けすごくしたのでこまめに日焼け止め塗るのがおすすめです。
ロッカーは1日開け放題で小さいロッカーを借りて15ドルでした。

We visited Hawaii for our honeymoon. I wanted to see dolphins in the dream destination of Hawaii, so I joined this tour. Although it was an early start, we were lucky enough to encounter not only dolphins but also whales on this tour. I was also thrilled to see sea turtles. The staff were very kind, and there were Japanese-speaking staff members, which made me feel at ease. During snorkeling, I was able to relax and see colorful fish in the beautiful sea. The slide from the boat was also fun. On the way back, we got to see a hula dance, which became a wonderful memory. For those worried about seasickness, I recommend taking motion sickness medication in advance. If you forget, you can also purchase a motion sickness band that is said to be effective on the bus ride there.

There were various slider-type attractions, and we had a great time. Before we knew it, it was already time to leave at 3 PM. Next time, I want to stay until the end with a rental car.
It was disappointing that my younger child, who is exactly 120 cm tall, couldn't participate in some activities. It's understandable since it's according to the rules, but it's better not to go if you're right on the edge of the height requirement.
Also, I wasn't happy with the waiting time in the lunch purchase line. Only one representative from the family waited for over 30 minutes. Since outside food is not allowed, I wish they could manage the lines more efficiently. Therefore, I give it 4 stars.
スライダー系の遊具が色々あって、楽しめました。あっという間に帰りの出発時間15時でした。
次はレンタカーで、終了までフルに居たいところです。
身長120cmジャストの下の子が、幾つかのアクティビティを通して貰えず残念でした。ルール通りなので致し方無いのですが、ギリギリアウトの身長で行かない方が良いですね。
あと、ランチ購入列の待ち時間だけは、いただけなかったです。家族の代表一人だけですけど30分以上並びました。持ち込み禁止ですし、だったらもっと効率良く回して欲しいです。

I also enjoyed the USS Missouri - tour guides were very knowledgeable and made the signing for the end of the war with Japan come to life. My husband is former Navy and it made the tour even more enjoyable. Loved the Bowfin Submarine and Aviation Museum also.

The weather was cloudy and not great, but even so, the middle and high school students seemed to be having fun playing various games. Since it was a weekday, there were fewer people, which meant no waiting in line, but in exchange, some attractions had time restrictions, making it difficult to use them. The attraction called "Tornado" seemed to be the most interesting, but it was a bit disappointing that it was open for such a short time.
天気が曇りでイマイチでしたが、それでも中高生は楽しそうにいろいろ遊んでいました。平日なので人が少なく並ばずに済むというメリットと引き換えに、アトラクションが時間帯で制限されておりタイミングが合わず利用できないことも。「トルネード」というアトラクションが一番面白かったようですが、開けている時間が短かったのが少し残念でした。

Really enjoyed our Morning out. The crew and Captain made the trip so much better. Honestly, their energy was off the charts, the music was good, enjoyable for all ages (we went as a couple in our mid 20’s and loved it, there were children loving it and parents older than us that were having a blast!)
I’d recommend the photo package, we didn’t get it but looking back and seeing how many pictures Tom took is outstanding. It’s the only photo package I’ve seen so far that guarantees 300 real photos of you minimum.
We’ve done a lot of trips on this holiday and this was probably the best crew I’ve seen. Can’t rate them high enough. Wish I could remember all their names but I can’t. Either way, amazing team to have.

The checkin process was easy and parking was smooth. The venue is smaller than them other Lua we’ve been, but we like the intimacy in a smaller show.

Good price, good location, fun crew.
Need to provide something more than meet-at-the-bathrooms-of-a-marina for mustering instructions. There were no crew/personnel at said marina bathroom well past the appointed time. The check-in process was haphazard at best, and did not instill a lot of confidence in the crew's ability/professionalism. The shuttle brining additional guests from Honolulu/Waikiki was very late and delayed our departure by more than 30 minutes (of a three hour cruise). This is obviously not the crew's fault and there is nothing they could have done about the traffic; however, the lack of communication to the guests who were there waiting could have (and should have) been much much better.
Once on the boat, the crew proved knowledgable and kind. A fun cruise that is perfectly suited for visitors staying on the west end of the island. There are similarly priced options closer to Honolulu and Waikiki without the hour-plus drive through really bad traffic.

Upon going to the sandbar for the first time, I decided to give Captain Bob's Kaneohe Bay a try. So glad I did because I had an amazing time on this cruise. All of the employees were super nice and made sure everyone felt safe & comfortable on the cruise. The sandbar was absolutely stunning! The crew set up a volleyball net which allowed for all of us to have a fun match of beach volleyball at the sandbar. Those that didn't want to participate were able to walk around the sandbar at their leisure. I enjoyed that this cruise was away from all of the other cruises and boats in the area. It was like we had our own secluded little area. The food was delicious and afterwards we cruised over to a reef area to snorkel. Along the way, the captain went slow to make sure we got a chance to see all of the sea turtles floating on the surface of the ocean. We saw so many of them! The area we snorkeled in was amazing. I saw so many different kinds of fish and several sea turtles that literally swim right next to us. I had an amazing time and photos to last a lifetime. If you are thinking about doing a cruise to the sandbar, look no further. Would absolutely go again!

I was able to see a lot of whales!
I participated around the second week of March.
I was really moved to see the spouts and tails multiple times.
On the way back, I encountered a pod of dolphins and was able to see them up close.
I didn't understand any English, but I was able to manage by mimicking others:
- Put shoes in a box before boarding
- Get drinks on the boat
(Since everyone was putting tips in the box, I did too)
- Put tips in the box when getting off
I was quite anxious because I didn't know what time or where the pickup would be, and the people I was with on the way there somehow took an Uber back.
After waiting for about 15 to 20 minutes, the pickup arrived, and I was able to return safely, but I should have confirmed it on the bus going there.
クジラたくさん観れました!
3月の2週目くらいに参加しました。
潮吹きや尾びれが何度もみれて、すごく感動しました。
帰りにはイルカの群れに遭遇して、
近くでみることができました。
英語は全く分かりませんでしたが、
・靴を箱にいれて乗船する
・ドリンクは船の中でもらえる
(みんなは箱にチップいれてたのでいれた)
・降りるとき箱にチップいれる
はみんなの真似してできたので困りませんでした。
帰りのお迎えが何時にどこへ来るか分からず、
行きで一緒だった人たちも何故かウーバーで帰って行ったのでかなり不安になりました。
15~20分くらい待っていたら、迎えが来てくれて無事帰れましたが、行きのバスで確認しておくべきでしたね。
