All Reviews for Toddler Friendly (Ages 2-4)

I used this for my honeymoon. I was moved to be able to interact with dolphins, which I had always dreamed of! I felt really glad to have participated in this precious experience that can only be done here.

新婚旅行での利用でしいた。
念願のイルカと触れ合えて感動！
ここでしか出来ない貴重な体験が出来て、参加して本当によかったと思えました。

The staff were all very cheerful, and I had a great time on the boat!

I saw a lot of dolphins, and there was even a sea turtle right next to me (laughs). The taro burger after swimming was also really delicious!!

I'm very satisfied!

とにかくスタッフの方がみんなノリが良くて、船の上がすごく楽しかったです♪

イルカもたくさん見れて、ウミガメなんてすぐ隣にいました（笑）泳ぎ終わった後の、タロイモバーガーもすごく美味しかったです!!


満足です(^O^)

This is my third time in Hawaii, but it was my first time riding a submarine.

First, we took a boat for about 5 to 10 minutes to reach the submarine, but even for someone like me who gets seasick easily, it was fine. There was so much to see that I didn't have time to feel sick! The beach viewed from the sea was very beautiful, and Diamond Head was truly impressive. Plus, we even saw a pod of dolphins!!! I boarded the submarine in a state of great excitement.

The guide was American, but he explained everything in very beautiful Japanese, so the audio guide was unnecessary. (He also made a lot of jokes, which were entertaining.) Of course, I was excited to see the fish and sea turtles, but I was particularly thrilled by the shipwrecks and airplanes.

I'm not sure if I will repeat this experience the next time I go to Hawaii, but I definitely recommend it to those who haven't tried it yet.

ハワイは３回目ですが、潜水艦に乗るのは今回が初めてでした。

まずは船で潜水艦まで５分～１０分ぐらい？かけて行きますが、船酔いしやすい私でも大丈夫でした。
というのも、見るものが多すぎて酔っている場合じゃない！のです。
海側から見るビーチはとても美しく、ダイアモンドヘッドも大迫力でした。
しかも、イルカの群れまで！！！
大興奮のまま潜水艦に乗り込みました。

ガイドさんはアメリカの方でしたがとても綺麗な日本語で説明してくれたので、オーディオガイドは不要でした。
（ジョークも多く、面白かったです。）
魚やウミガメはもちろんですが、私は沈没船や飛行機にわくわくしました。

次にハワイに行った時、リピートするかはわかりませんが、未体験の方には是非おすすめです。

I participated because I wanted to see the sandbar with my own eyes. What I had imagined was being able to walk on the sandbar. However, there was water up to my knees, which was a bit disappointing. (The sandbars you often see are really only visible on limited days, right...?) However, the staff were very enjoyable, and the content was fulfilling, so I was very satisfied.

サンドバーをこの目で見たくて、参加しました。
私が想像してたのは、サンドバーの上を歩けることでした。
でも、ひざ下ぐらいまでの水がありちょっと残念でした。（よく見るサンドバーは、本当に見れる日が限られてるから感・・・？）
しかし、スタッフの方もとても楽しい方々で、内容も充実していてとても満足です。

After seeing the dolphins, while moving to a point where we could see sea turtles, we were stopped in the water due to engine trouble. We returned to port safely on the one boat that was functioning. The hula dance lesson, the staff's planned dance on the boat, and the BBQ lunch (which had been cooked on the boat but was cold) were held at a park instead.

It seemed to be an unexpected trouble, but the staff were smiling, kind, and fun, which made me forget that we hardly got to do any snorkeling or experiences like kayak surfing or paddle surfing.

However, what was disappointing was the company's response. Despite the schedule changes due to the boat trouble, the apology was simply a discount on the DVD (which could be purchased by those who wanted it) from 8,000 yen to 3,000 yen. At that moment, everyone was tired from seasickness and agreed to it, but considering that some might not want to purchase it, I found it strange.

It was truly disappointing, especially since all the staff were great. Among the group, I was the only one participating for the second time, and knowing how much fun I had the first time made me feel sorry for my friends who joined me this time. Even though it was an unexpected trouble, I believe such situations could happen again in the future, and I hope they will consider a proper response.

I appreciate the participants and the staff for their efforts. Thank you very much.

イルカを見たあとに、ウミガメのみれるポイントに移動中、
エンジンのトラブルで、海の上で足止め、
二つのうち一つ無事なほうで、帰港しました。
フラダンスレッスン、船上で予定していたスタッフのダンス、BBQランチ（船で焼かれたものを持ってきてあり、冷えてました）は公園で行われました。
予想外のトラブルだったようですが、スタッフの方たちは、笑顔で優しく楽しく、結局シュノーケリングがほとんどできなかったこと、カヤックサーフィンやパドルサーフィンなどの体験もできなかったことを忘れさせてくれる気がしました。

ただ、残念なのが、会社の対応です。船のトラブルで、スケジュールに変更があったにもかかわらず、お詫びが『（希望者のみ購入する）DVD8000円を3000円に割引します』といったものでした。その場では、皆船酔いなどの疲れもあり、了承しましたが、購入しない場合もあることを考えるとおかしいと思います。

スタッフの方たちが、全員よい方だっただけに本当に残念です。グループで参加の中、私だけ二回目参加で、一回目とても楽しかったことを知っていただけに一緒に参加した友人にも申し訳ない気持ちになりました。
予想外のトラブルとはいっても、今後もあり得ることだと思いますし、キチンとした対応を考えていただきたいと思います。

参加者のかたたち、スタッフのみなさんの対応には感謝いたします。ありがとうございました。

This is my second time at Sandbar, and I felt comfortable participating thanks to the fun staff.

My child was 2 years old last time and is now 5, but even at 2, they were able to enjoy swimming in the shallow water.

The staff were also kind to the children, and it seemed like they were having a great time.

I hope to join with my friends' family next time!

Thank you very much!!

サンドバーは2回目ですが、楽しいスタッフさんで安心して参加でしました。

子供が前回は2歳で今回は5歳ですが、2歳のときから遠浅で楽しく泳ぐことができました。

スタッフさんも、子供に優しくしていただいて、楽しそうでした。

次回はお友達ファミリーと一緒に参加できたらいいなぁとおもいます♪

ありがとうございました！！

It was cold, perhaps because of the season in November or the cloudy weather. I didn't expect it since we were walking on sand, but there were broken corals scattered around, which hurt my feet. I think it would be better to have water sandals. The sea had poor visibility, and there were no fish, which was disappointing! However, it was nice that the honu came close to us. I was surprised by how luxurious the light meal was, despite it being labeled as a snack.

11月という季節のせいか、曇りのせいかとにかく寒かったです。
砂の上を歩くというので、考えていませんでしたが、
割れたサンゴがゴロゴロしてて、足が痛く水中用のサンダルがあったほうが良いと思います。
海は透明度が悪く、魚もいなくてガッカリ！
ただ、ホヌが近くまで来てくれてよかったです。
軽食付きとありましたが、とても豪華でびっくりしました。

This was my third time, but it was completely different from before and had turned into just a sightseeing experience. Ten years ago, it was truly educational, and even five years ago, although the time was shorter, it still felt educational. Each person received a certificate, and the children were very happy. With so many participants being managed in such a short time in a show space like now, the appeal is almost nonexistent. Japanese aquariums are much better.

今回で3回目でしたが、以前とは全く違って単なる観光になっていました。
10年前は本当に教育、5年前も少し時間が短くなりましたが、教育という感じで、一人一人に修了証書ももらって、子供たちも大喜びでした。
今のように、こんなに大量の参加者にさばいて、短い時間でショースペースで行うようでは、魅力はほとんどなくないです。
日本の水族館の方がよほどいいです。

I was nervous at first because it was a rubber boat but it was a wonderful experience and if you go purchase the CD that is taken with your group.. It came this week. Wonderful.

This was a great surprise for my family. After a 11 hour flight, they were excited by the surprise at the gate. Your employees were also very helpful with details of the airport and transportation questions and recommendations.

I participated in the Heaven's Sea tour! I actually wanted to join in the morning, but the afternoon tour was perfectly fine, and I thoroughly enjoyed Heaven's Sea! A sea turtle came really close to me, and it was my first time experiencing something like that; it was so much fun! The afternoon tour included lunch, and the lunch menu was incredibly delicious. I was worried about getting seasick, but I didn't feel it at all and had a great time! I would love to join this tour again if I have the chance!

天国の海ツアー参加してきました！
本当は朝から参加にしたかったんですが、昼からツアーでもまったく問題なく天国の海を満喫できました！
ウミガメが本当に近くによってきてくれて、あんな体験初めてで本当にたのしかったです！昼ツアーはランチつきだったんですが、ランチメニューもものすごくおいしかったです。船酔いも心配してましたが、全然なく思いっきり楽しめました！
機会があればまた参加したいツアーです！

had a great time on the cruise. food was great. the view was awsome. the staff was great. loved the entertainment. you are treated very well.

This is my fourth time in Hawaii. Each time, I sign up for a sunset cruise, and this May I experienced a 5-star cruise, so I wanted to experience the daytime ocean as well and signed up this time. The daytime ocean was even better than I imagined, and I thoroughly enjoyed the wonderful sea. If I had to be picky, it would have been nice to have a bit more time sailing through the wind during the same time frame. Therefore, I give it 4 stars... I recommend it for both beginners and repeat visitors to Hawaii.

ハワイは４度目
行くたびにサンセットクルーズに申し込みして今年の５月には★５スターも体験したので昼間の海も体験したいと思い今回申し込みました。
想像以上に昼間の海は気持ちが良く素晴らしい海を満喫しました。
欲を言えば同じ時間内で風を切って走る時間がもう少し長いと良かったです。
なので☆４個・・・・ハワイ初心者からリピーターにもお薦めですね。

I thought there would be more attractions and that it would be larger, but surprisingly, I managed to cover most of it quickly. The water is really cold.

けど、もっと広くてたくさんアトラクションあるかと思ったら
以外とすぐだいたい制覇してしまった。
水がすげー冷たいです。

We had booked Atlantis submarine adventure with Hawaii activities for the thanksgiving weekend and we were not disappointed. Right from the ease of booking to getting us to the event on time everything was as smooth as it could get. I had booked several other events through Hawaii activities including parasailing, Magic of Polynisia show and Polynesian cultural center luau and everyone of them was memorable. Had a chance to deal with one of the most professional and Courteous staff from Hawaii activities who made sure that this was our best vacation.

I think both children and adults can enjoy getting up close to and touching the dolphins. The space is just right, and you can watch the show at a leisurely pace without feeling rushed. There’s also a small playland near the center, so kids who get bored can play on the slide and other activities. It was a very satisfying tour.

間近でイルカを見れて触れるので子供から大人まで楽しめると思います。
広さもほどよく、ショーもゆっくり見れるのでバタバタすることはありませんでした。
真ん中付近に小っちゃいプレイランドもあり、飽きた子供も滑り台などで遊べるようになっています。
かなり満足の行くツアーでした。

I was disappointed with the tour. I expected to see a lot of marine life. This was not worth the price that was charged. Pictures were also very expensive. No one purchased the pictures during my tour. You may want to reconsider the pricing.

You can experience the strange situation of walking in the sea surrounded by water. The sea, reflecting the sunlight, looked even more beautiful. You can also meet sea turtles!!

まわりが海のなかを歩くという不思議な状況が体験できます。海が太陽の光を受けてきれいな海がさらにきれいに見えました。ウミガメにも会えます！！

It was great to see the sea turtles up close.

ウミガメがとても近くで見れてとてもよかったです。

The weather was clear, and I could see well into the ocean; it looked very beautiful.

天気も晴れていて海の中がよく見えて、とてもきれいに見えました。

It was our family's first trip to Hawaii with five people. We had a very good experience, but I thought it was a bit expensive.

初めての家族5人のハワイ旅行でした。
とても良い経験が出来ました、でもちょっと値段が高い用に思います。

The timing is very important as it greatly relates to the tides. I wanted to walk on a sandbar like in the photo, but when I went, the shallowest part was only about ankle-deep.

When I went snorkeling, a turtle suddenly appeared right at our feet, and my excitement shot up!

After snorkeling, the boat took us around to where the turtles were. I was really happy when I saw multiple turtle heads popping up from the waves. While we were doing that, the sun came out, and we enjoyed a very pleasant cruise.

I would like to participate again at the right time.

潮の満ち引きが大いに関係するので、タイミングがとっても重要です。写真のようなサンドバーを歩いてみたかったけど、私がいったときは一番浅いところでくるぶしくらいの深さでした。

シュノ-ケリングをしたとき、いつの間にかカメが私たちの足元にいるという感じで出現。テンションが一気に上がりました！

シュノ-ケリングのあと船でカメがいるところを回ってくれました。カメの頭が波間から複数みえたときはとてもうれしかったです。そうこうしているうちに、晴れ間がでてきてとても気持ちの良いクルーズを楽しめました。　

また時期を見計らって参加したいです。

It is often featured in guidebooks, and I had always wanted to visit it when I went to Hawaii. There were some waves, but I was able to see the clear ocean. There were also several sea turtles popping their heads out of the water, which was adorable. Walking in the ocean felt really nice. There was nothing but the sea around, and the scenery was wonderful. The food was delicious, and I felt safe snorkeling for the first time with the guides watching over us. I'm really glad I participated. It was so much fun!

ガイドブックによく掲載されていて、ハワイに行ったら絶対行きたいと思っていました。
少し波がありましたが、透き通った海を見ることができました。ウミガメも何匹も海から顔を出していたのでかわいかったです。
海の中を歩く感じですごく気持ちよかったです。周りには海しかなく、景色もすばらしかったです☆
料理もおいしかったし、初めてのシュノーケリングはガイドさんたちにしっかり見守られながらだったので安心してできました。
参加して本当によかったです。すごく楽しかったです♪

Initially, I was scheduled to board on the second day of my stay, but unfortunately, the second and third days were booked for a private group, so I boarded two days before my return. I had checked the weather forecast for the latter half of my stay and found that the weather was not looking good, so it wasn't a cloudless sunset as predicted, but with some clouds, I was able to enjoy the changing colors of the clouds.

Most of the passengers were foreigners (I was also a foreigner in Hawaii!), primarily Americans, with only one other Japanese couple on board. Although Japanese was not spoken, I didn't feel inconvenienced during the approximately one-and-a-half-hour cruise while listening to Hawaiian music.

Since it was a catamaran, I expected less rocking, but unfortunately, the wind was strong and the waves were high, so it rocked quite a bit. My wife is not fond of boats, but she took motion sickness medication, so she was fine. The kids were thrilled.

I have also been on the Hilton's submarine, so there wasn't anything new for me to see from the boat looking at Waikiki, but those who are boarding for the first time will likely enjoy it.

Two drink tickets were distributed for alcohol, allowing for beer or champagne. Junk food and teriyaki chicken were served, but since this is a cocktail cruise, don't expect much in terms of food. If you get a good sunset, it will be fantastic!

当初は、滞在2日目に乗船予定でしたが、あいにく団体貸切に2日目、3日目がとられてしまい帰国2日前に乗船しました。天気予報で滞在後半、天気が芳しくないことを調べていたので、予報通り雲の無いサンセットではありませんでしたが、そこそこ雲があると雲の色の変化も楽しめます。
ほとんどが外人（私もHAWAIIでは外人！！）アメリカ人で日本人はもう1カップルのみでした。
日本語は通じませんが、Hawaiiannを聞きながら約1時間半のクルーズには不便を感じませんでした。
双胴船なので揺れが少ないはずでしたが、あいにく風が強く波も高かったので、結構揺れました。妻は船が苦手でしたが酔い止めb薬を飲んでいたので大丈夫でした。
子供は大喜びでした。
小生は、ヒルトンのサブマリンも乗船しているので、船から見るWAIKIKIに目新しさはありませんでしたが、初めて乗られる方はには喜ばれるでしょう。
アルコールは２杯までただのチケットが配られ、ビールやシャンパンが飲めます。ジャンクフードとチキンの照り焼き風が出ましたが、カクテルクルーズなので料理は期待しないでください。
良いサンセットにあたるとサイコーでしょう！！

The level was lower than I had imagined. You might see whales, but it's better to think of it as a lucky chance if you do. Simply going out to the open sea and feeling the pleasant breeze makes it worth the price. It's also suitable for busy people since there's no need to go to the port for a pickup.

想定していたイメージよりレベルが下でした。
クジラは見えるかもしれませんが見えたらラッキーと思っていた方がいいです。
単純に外洋に出て心地よい風に当たると思えば値段的にもお得と思います。
わざわざ送迎にて港へ行く必要がないため忙しい方に向いていますね。

I thought I had signed up for a tour to swim with dolphins, but it turned out to be just a tour where you touch and kiss them. It was my mistake for not checking properly, but I was really disappointed since I just wanted to swim with them.

イルカと泳ぐツアーに申し込んだつもりだったのですが、間違えて触れたりキスするだけのツアーでした。きちんと確認しなかった私のミスですが、一緒に泳ぎたかっただけにとても残念でした。

This was my eighth trip to Hawaii, but it was my first experience at the sandbar. The knee-deep water in the middle of the ocean was very mysterious, and the contrast between the sand and the sea was beautiful. When we went, it was not the season for the sand to be exposed, but I would like to visit again during low tide. I thought the staff was friendly and their service was good, but I wish they would refrain from smoking at the sandbar. Even though there are no legal restrictions, I wonder why anyone would smoke in such a beautiful natural place. There were even comments encouraging smoking among participants, and I saw people walking around the sandbar with cigarettes in their mouths. It was uncomfortable on the water.

ハワイは８回目でしたがサンドバーは初体験でした。
海の真ん中で膝下の水位はとても不思議で砂と海のコントラストがとてもきれいでした。
私たちが行ったときは砂浜は出ない時期でしたが今度は干潮の時に行ってみたいです。
スタッフの方はフレンドリーで対応等は良かったと思いますが
サンドバーでわざわざタバコを吸うのはやめてほしいです。
法律での規制がないとはいえ、なぜあのような自然の綺麗な場所で喫煙するのか？です・・・参加者にも喫煙をあおる発言をしていて実際咥え煙草でサンドバーを歩いてる人もいました。
海の上で不快でした。

I've been on a few excursions. . .all have been fun, but this was my favorite. I highly recommend it! The staff was great fun and very knowledgeable. We saw so many dolphins, a sea turtle, and a sting ray. We were able to snorkel along side and enjoy! It was a bonus they had a photographer on board that took underwater pictures so we have our memories in pictures of all we enjoyed that day. You won't be disappointed!!

My husband, 7 month old son, and I had a great experience with this activity during snorkeling and snuba. We got lucky, and one of the guest/crew members watched our son (who mostly slept) so we had the opportunity to both go together for the snorkeling and snuba. The catamaran we took was a great ship. The crew was very accommodating, nice, funny, and took care of everyone, including a woman who lost her camera in the water, and when my hubby got a little overwhelmed in the beginning during snuba. The food was okay, but definitely helped after a good amount of time time in the water. I would defintely do it again. The great crew actually made a huge difference too!

Due to my schedule, I couldn't participate for long and joined the morning session. I only caught a glimpse of the sea turtles from the boat, but I was impressed by the beauty of the sandbar! When getting off the boat, the water was up to my stomach, and in the shallow areas, it was up to my knees. I'm so glad I bought a waterproof camera!

The weather was a bit gloomy during the cruise, with some light rain, but we were able to see a rainbow, and by the time we arrived, it was sunny! It must be even more sparkling and beautiful on a clear day.

Since I was at the back during snorkeling, the visibility was poor, but I really wanted to go to the sandbar, so I was happy about that. The early finish allowed me to spend the afternoon meaningfully. The warm tea and sandwiches served on the way back were delicious!

I hope I can take my time a bit more next time.

スケジュールの関係であまりゆっくりのには参加できず、午前の部に参加しました。
海亀は船上からちらっと見る程度でしたがサンドバーの綺麗さに感動☆ボートから下りるときはおなかくらい、浅いところでもひざ上まで浸かりました。張り切って防水のカメラを買ってよかった～♪
天気も、クルーズ中はどんよりとしてパラパラ振ったりしましたが虹も見れたし到着するころには晴れたし☆快晴だともっときらきらして綺麗なんでしょうね。
シュノーケルは後ろの方だったので濁ってあまり見れませんでしたが、サンドバーは絶対行きたいとこだったのでよかったです。早めに終わるので午後からも有意義に過ごせました。
帰りに出された温かいお茶とサンドイッチもおいしかったです☆
次はもう少しゆっくりできるといいなぁ。
