All Reviews for For 4 Year Olds

Amazing & would highly recommend this hike! We were originally scheduled to do the Makapuu Lighthouse Trail as well, but unfortunately they closed the trail a few days before we arrived. We were notified by the tour company in plenty of time & just went on the hike to Diamond Head. We were refunded the difference & everything else went off without a hitch. We were a little confused about the pick up location, but the driver took the time to call us & guide us to the right area. Job well done guys! Mahalo!

The sandbar in Hawaii is definitely a place you want to visit at least once. The weather was cloudy, and although it was March, it was a bit chilly. Once you get in the water, you get used to it, but it felt quite cold when you got back on land.

It should take about 1 hour and 30 minutes by bus from Honolulu, but it took over 2 hours due to delays from picking up other tour guests, which was tough.

That said, I was very satisfied with the tour! Especially during the sea turtle watching, we unexpectedly saw a group of manta rays, which was a surprise! The guide mentioned it was quite rare, and the manta rays appeared before the sea turtles, leaving everyone on the tour looking puzzled.

The hamburger for lunch was also very delicious! 😊

ハワイで一度は行ってみたいであろうサンドバー。当日の天気は曇りで、3月でしたが、やや肌寒かったです。いったん水に浸かれば慣れますが、また陸に上がると結構冷えました。
ホノルルからはバスで1時間30分くらいのはずですが、往路で他のツアー客のピックアップに時間がかかって2時間以上かかったのが辛かったです。。
何はともあれ、ツアーの内容は大満足！特にウミガメウォッチの時に偶然マンタの群れを見ることが出来、ビックリしました！ガイドさんもかなり珍しいと言われていたのですが、ウミガメより先にマンタが登場して、ツアー客はみんな？？って顔をしてましたけど笑

昼食のハンバーガーも大変美味しく頂きました(^^)

Someone asked me today what my favorite activity was in Hawaii and I told them hands down the Dolphin and Snorkel Catamaran trip was the best and most memorable. We got to see a large pod of Hawaiian Spinner Dolphins and then snorkeling saw some Sea Turtles and many varieties of tropical fish. The wind picked up enough on our way back that the crew put the beautiful sails up and we sailed back .The food and drink were great and the crew were beyond helpful and so much fun. This is the one activity I would be sure to do again when we come back to Oahu!

The park itself is small and rather tired but still great fun; esp. for younger kids. When we went (September) it runs with a skeleton staff and they (frustratingly) don't run all rides, all of the time but instead swap them around and so most rides are closed for half of the time. This causes unnecessary queues and limits the number of turns you can have quite a lot. The transport to and from was poorly organised. It was late going and late coming back (we were asked to be out of the park 15 minutes before it closed and then waited 30 mins for our bus to arrive!). However it was still a fun day, but just could have been better!

On the morning of the day, unfortunately, it was cloudy. There was a hurricane around Oahu, and it had rained heavily the day before, so I was disappointed. However, when we arrived at the sandbar, I thought, "I'm glad I came!" Although it wasn't clear skies, by midday, the weather turned into a pleasant beach day. As expected of Hawaii. The guide mentioned, "If it hadn't rained the day before, it would have been even more beautiful," but I was more than satisfied with the experience. I want to go again on a sunny day. The crew members were all friendly and made me feel at ease.

当日朝は、あいにくの曇り空。オアフ島周辺にハリケーンがあり、前日も大雨で今回は残念‥と思っていました。
しかし、サンドバーに着いた時には「来て良かった！」と思うことができました。快晴では無かったのですが、昼近くになるとカラッとした海日和となりました。さすがハワイ。
ガイドのお姉さんは「前日の雨がなければ、もっと綺麗だよ。」とおっしゃったのですが、十分満足出来る内容でした。次は快晴の日に行きたいです。
クルーの方は皆さん気さくで安心感がありました。

What a site to see, I loved every bit of this activity.

The sandbar's sea was incredibly beautiful! The water level was up to my chest due to the high tide, which was more than I had imagined, but we had fun playing with a beach ball!
I also got to see cute turtles, and there were so many fish while snorkeling—it was the best! ★
The hamburger we had on the boat was delicious too!＼(^o^)／
The staff were fun and made our time very comfortable! ♪♪

サンドバーの海、すごい綺麗でした！イメージしてたより、満ち潮の影響で胸くらいまで水位があったけど、ビーチボールもできて楽しかったです！
かわいい亀も見れたし、シュノーケルもたっくさんお魚が見れて、最高でした★
船で食べた、ハンバーガーも美味しかったです＼(^o^)／
スタッフさんも楽しい片たちで心地よく過ごせました♪♪

My friends and I had a good time here. Many different thinks to keep us occupied. Love seeing the sea turtles.

Since we took the bus, it was a bit of a long journey, but we were able to spend a very relaxing day. The hula lesson and craft experience were just for us, so it felt almost like a private lesson. The craft experience with the tea leaf lei work was fun, and the hula was taught with great care, which made me happy. The spacious grounds were pleasant, and the planetarium had interesting explanations. The guide in the museum provided thorough explanations as we toured the exhibits, allowing us to learn about Hawaiian culture.

THE BUSで出向いたので少し遠い道のりでしたが、とてもゆったりと一日過ごすことが出来ました。
フラレッスンもクラフト体験も私達だけでしたからほぼプライベートレッスン状態でした。
クラフト体験のティーリーフのレイワークも楽しかったし、フラは丁寧に教えて下さったし、嬉しかったです。
広い敷地内で気持ち良く、プラネタリウムでは興味深い説明で、博物館内も案内の方がしっかり説明して展示物を回ってくださるのでハワイの文化を知ることができました。

Very disappointing. We had to decide as soon as we got off the bus what time we wanted to be picked up - 10 AM or 12 noon. Had we known how long it would take us to actually get into the water, we would have chosen noon! We were picked up at 7 AM, got to the Bay about 7:45, had to stand in line to get tickets, wait our turn to see a required film (very good actually), and then walk about 10 minutes down to the Bay, and then stand in another line to get a locker for our bags. We did not get into the water until almost 8:45, more than an hour after we had been picked up. THEN, we find our that the snorkel/mask ensemble was so inflexible that we could not get it to work properly! The mouthpiece was too rigid, would not form a tight seal and kept pulling to one side, and my husband's snorkel actually kept coming unhooked from the mask! Had we known this, we would have bought our own equipment at the ABC store for $10 and actually been able to snorkel! As it was, we spent until 9:30 trying to get the equipment to fit, and then had to head back to the bus for the 10 AM pick-up. Had the connection between the mouthpiece and the snorkel tube been accordion-like and flexible, it would have been a lot better. If you plan to go on this trip, bring your own equipment and be prepared to not get into the water right away. The Bay is beautiful and the water was wonderful, but our experience with the inflexible pick up time and equipment was not wonderful!

My friends and I had so much fun. The whole cruise was a great experience. The crew was super friendly. Our guide, Ryan, was great. He was very knowledgeable so we actually learned some things which was cool. Would have liked to spend a little more time on the sandbar but overall, would definitely recommend doing this!

The water surface was quite deep due to the time of day, but it was beautiful. The BBQ hamburgers and snorkeling were delicious, and I had a great time!

時間帯の問題でかなり深い水面でしたが、綺麗でした。
BBQのハンバーガーやｼｭﾉｰｹﾘﾝｸﾞも美味しいし、楽しかったです❗

I was really looking forward to the sandbar, but on this day it was high tide. The water was up to my waist, and the weather was cloudy, so it was disappointing. If you plan to participate, I think it's a good idea to check the tide schedule before signing up.

とても楽しみにしていたサンドバーですがこの日は満潮。腰のあたりまで水があり、天気も曇りだったので残念でした。参加される場合は潮の満ち引きも調べてから申し込まれると良いと思います。

Great tour...Pearl Harbor is a must see when visiting Oahu!!

We gathered 10 minutes before the pickup time, and the bus had already arrived, allowing us to board smoothly. I plan to use this service again next year.

ピックアップ時間の１０分前に集合したところ、すでにバスが到着しており
スムーズにバスに乗ることができました。
また、来年も利用しようと思います。

My sister visited me so I had to take her here to show her the sandbar. She had a great experience swimming and snorkeling. Good food is a plus.

We participated as a family. I was really looking forward to it after seeing the photos, but on that day, due to high tide, the water was up to our waists, and my 85-year-old grandmother and 1-year-old child couldn't get off the boat. Even though I had asked questions in advance, it was disappointing, as it is not a cheap tour.

The Japanese female guide was friendly and funny, and it was great to see manta rays and sea turtles.

If you are considering participating, I think it's better to check the tide conditions for that day beforehand.

家族で参加しました。
写真を見て、とても楽しみにしていたのですが、この日は満潮ということで、腰のあたりまで水があり、85歳の祖母と1歳の子供は船から降りることができませんでした。
事前に質問して問い合わせていただけに、いくら自然のこととはいえ残念な気持ちになりました。決して安いツアーではありませんので。。

ガイドの日本人女性は気さくなおもしろい方でしたし、マンタやウミガメを見られたことはよかったのですが。

参加を検討される場合は、その日の潮の状況も確認してからの方が良いと思います。

After the ceremony, we used the restaurant for a family-only meal. The atmosphere is very nice. The food was delicious and reasonably priced. Personally, I would have preferred larger portions. The staff was attentive in explaining the menu, which helped us avoid making expensive additional orders. If you plan to visit, it might be better for a small group, like a date. The location of the restaurant was also good. It's close to the Hawaiian Center, so you can enjoy shopping on your way back.

挙式後、親族のみの食事で利用しました。
雰囲気はとてもいいです。料理も値段相応でおいしくいただきました。
個人的には、もっと量が多いとよかったです。
店員さんはメニューの見方等で気を聞かせてくれたので、高額の追加注文にならずに済みました。利用するのであれば、デートなど少人数がいいかもしれません。
お店の立地もよかったです。ハワイアンセンターに近いので、帰りにショッピングなども楽しめます。

The day of the Heaven's Sea tour unfortunately had cloudy skies and rain, which made it cold. It was disappointing that the water's blue color was dulled due to the clouds. However, I was able to see sea turtles and enjoyed snorkeling in the coral reef, so I guess it was still a good experience overall.

天国の海ツアーの日だけが生憎の曇天～雨模様で
寒かったです。曇りのせいで水の青さがくすんでたのが残念でした。ただ海亀も見れたし珊瑚礁でのシュノーケルも楽しんだのでまぁいいかって感じですね。

I participated in the BBQ lunch (which is a hamburger lunch) ^^ At the sandbar, the water was up to my waist. If you want to experience shallower water, it seems that going early with breakfast included is a good option. That said, it probably depends on the weather and the season... On this day, I wasn't feeling well, so I waited on the boat, but my family seemed to be having a great time ^^ Even though I was waiting on the boat, the scenery was lovely, and the staff were cheerful and friendly. I was able to spend a fun time talking with little kids and people from abroad. The hamburger for lunch was made with meat cooked in a Dutch oven, and it was juicy and delicious ^^ I also got to see a lot of sea turtles, which were adorable. On the way back, you can change clothes on the boat, so I think it would be convenient to have a cape that you can easily put on or take off. You can also change at the restroom after getting off the boat, but since there was a line for women, it might be easier to change early. I plan to participate again next time and try getting down to the sandbar or snorkeling with the sea turtles!

BBQランチ（＝ハンバーガーランチ）付きに参加しました^^ サンドバーでは腰ほどまで水がありました。もっと浅いのを体験したければ朝食付きの早い時間方法が良いみたいですね。といっても、天候や季節によると思いますが。。私はこの日に限って体調が悪かったのでボートで待機していましたが、家族は楽しそうにしていました^^ボートで待機といっても、景色も素敵だし、スタッフさん達も明るく気さくでしたし、ちっちゃいおこちゃまや外国の方と話したり楽しい時間を過ごせました。お昼のハンバーガーもダッチオーブンで焼いてくれたお肉で、ジューシーで美味しかったです^^ウミガメも沢山見れて可愛かったです。帰り、着替えはボートの上で出来るので、すっぽりか被れるケープのようなのがあると便利かと思います。ボート降りてトイレでも着替えられますが、女性は並んでいたので早めに着替えちゃった方が楽かもです。次回も参加して今度はサンドバーに降りたり、シュノーケルでウミガメと泳いだりしようと思います！

The weather was wonderful, and the sandbar was incredibly beautiful. The staff was also very cheerful ( ^ω^ ). I even encountered a sea turtle while snorkeling!

天気にも恵まれサンドバーは最高に綺麗でした。スタッフさんも最高に陽気( ^ω^ )シュノーケリングでウミガメにも出会いました！

Our first family trip to Hawaii. I had always wanted to visit Angel's Beach. I was surprised by the number of Japanese people at the meeting point. It was a good decision to take motion sickness medication before getting on the boat to avoid feeling seasick. When we arrived at Angel's Beach, the water was about knee-deep, but it was crystal clear and very beautiful. The hamburgers afterward were delicious, and my child enjoyed snorkeling for the first time in their life.

初めての家族でのハワイ旅行。天使の海は絶対行きたいと思っていた場所でした。集合場所について日本人の多さにまずびっくり。ボートに乗って揺られる中酔わないように酔い止めを飲んでおいたのは正解でした。天使の海につくと膝の高さくらいの水でしたが、透き通っていてとてもきれいでした。そのあとのハンバーガーもおいしく、子供は人生初のシュノーケリングを楽しんでいました。

The guide picked us up at the hotel and shuttled us to the trailhead. From there its pretty easy hike up to the Manoa Falls.

It wasn't a full moon or new moon, so the water level was higher, but it was still beautiful! It felt like the time was short, but I think I wouldn't have been able to come without the tour, so I'm satisfied.

満月・新月ではなかったので、水位は高めでしたがそれでも綺麗でした！時間が短い気もするけど、ツアーじゃないと来れないと思うので満足です。

It was a very pleasant place. I recommend it.

However, it seems that the sand area only appears during limited times, such as early morning. When I went without knowing this, I thought, "Huh, this looks a bit different from the guidebook and photos...?!"

Also, it seems that the hotel pickup time can be a bit delayed, so you don't need to worry if they don't arrive right away; just be there, and you'll be fine!

The female guide took a lot of wonderful photos, so I recommend handing over your camera for her to take pictures!

Next time, I want to go again during the time when the sand area is available.

とっても心地の良いところでした。
オススメです。

ただ、砂場が現れるのは、
早朝などの限られた時間のようで、
なにも知らずに行った私は、
あれ、ガイドブックと写真が
ちょっと違う、、、！？
となりました！

また、ホテルでのピックアップ時間が
多少遅れることがあるみたいなので、
こないからといって、ソワソワしなくても、
ちゃんとそこにいれば大丈夫です！

ガイドの女性が、ステキな写真を
いっぱい撮ってくださったので、
カメラを渡して撮っていただくことが
オススメです！

今度は、砂場の出てる時間帯に
また行ってみたいです。

About 18 years ago, I did a photoshoot at a sandbar for work. At that time, the sandbar completely emerged as land, and I remember shooting there for about 2 to 3 hours. This time, I applied for my daughter (a high school freshman) to have that wonderful experience as well. However, the sandbar did not emerge above the water. According to the female guide, due to rising sea levels and the tides at that time, it seems that land formation has become rare recently. However, my daughter was satisfied as she discovered a sea turtle and enjoyed her first snorkeling experience. The woman who guided us and instructed us was very pleasant, and all the staff were cheerful people. I wouldn't recommend it for very young children, but I think it would be a good experience for middle school-aged kids.

18年ほど前に仕事でサンドバーで撮影をしました。そのときは、完全に砂浜が陸地になり、2時間～3時間はその陸地で撮影をした記憶があります。今回、娘（高1）にもその素晴らしい体験をさせようと思い申し込みました。しかし、サンドバーが、水上に出てくることはありませんでした。ガイドの女性によると、やはり地球の海面上昇や、そのときの潮の満干でほとんど最近は、陸地ができることはないそうです。しかし娘は、ウミガメを発見したり、初めてのシュノーケリングを楽しんだようで、満足しておりました。旅の案内やインストラクターをしてくれた女性の方は、大変感じがよく、スタッフもみんな愉快な人たちでした。あまり小さな子供たちにはお勧めしませんが、中学ぐらいの子供たちには良い経験になるかと思います。

The sandbar I was most looking forward to in Hawaii! I made a reservation for the day with the shallowest water during my 5-night, 7-day stay, but unfortunately, it rained. A few days ago, an acquaintance went and said it was really beautiful, so I was truly disappointed.

Since it was Saturday, there was a high school boy who spoke Japanese working part-time. The staff were neither particularly good nor bad, but the hot tea and sandwiches we had in the cold were delicious.

今回のハワイで1番楽しみにしてたサンドバー！5泊7日の中で1番水深が浅い日を選んで予約しましたが、残念ながらの雨でした。数日前に知人が行ったのですが、すごいキレイとのことだったので本当に残念。
土曜日だったので、高校生の日本語が話せるバイトの男の子がいました。スタッフは特別いいわけでも悪いわけでもありませんでしたが、寒い中で食べるホットティーとサンドウィッチはおいしかったです。

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。

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。
