I participated at the end of November.
I had been looking at the photos on this site, so it was very different from what I imagined.
First of all, each tour company has its own designated area, and the area for this tour company was just a shallow beach that looked nothing like the photos.
Perhaps due to the rain, the sea was murky, and the water depth was about 1 meter.
The water depth reached up to my stomach, as I am 168 centimeters tall.
It was cold due to the bad weather, and I was enduring while getting into the sea.
I would have appreciated a comment stating that in bad weather, the scenery would be different from the sandbar shown in the photos.
11月末に参加しました。
こちらのサイトの写真を見てたので、想像と違い過ぎました。
まず、ツアー会社ごとに仕切っているエリアがあり、こちらのツアー会社で仕切っているエリアは全く写真とは違うただの浅めのビーチでした。
雨のせいか海は濁っていて、水深も深く1メートルほどありました。
水深は、身長168センチのわたしの胃のあたりまであります。
悪天候で寒くて、我慢しながら海に入ってました。
悪天候の場合、こちらのツアーでは写真のサンドバーへとは異なる風景になりますと、一言コメント欲しかったです。

My wife, daughter, granddaughter, and I participated together. My granddaughter was thrilled by the special experience of touching, kissing, and swimming with the dolphins. I wished we could have swum with the dolphins a little longer, but it was a valuable experience.
私達夫婦と娘、孫女子と4人で参加しました。孫はイルカに触ったり、キスしたり、一緒に泳いだりした事が、特別な体験で感激していました。私はイルカと泳ぐのがもうちょっと長ければと思いましたが、貴重な体験でした。

About two weeks before departing for Hawaii, I wanted to participate in a sandbar tour, but everywhere I searched was fully booked. I finally found this tour, which had a reasonable price and availability, so I didn't have high expectations. However, once I participated, the boat was impressive, and the staff's service was very satisfying. We got to see many sea turtles and had the long-awaited sandbar experience, leaving my whole family very happy.
ハワイ出発がの2週間ほど前から、サンドバーツアーに参加したいと思いつつ予約を取ろうとしたところ検索ですぐに出てくるところはどこも予約がいっぱいでした。
やっと見つけたこちらのツアーは価格も安めだし空きがあるしで、実はあまり期待はしていませんでした。
実際参加してみると船は立派だし、スタッフの対応も大変満足できるものでした。内容的にもたくさんのウミガメに会え待望のサンドバー体験のでき家族全員大満足でした。

It was a cloudy and windy day from the morning, and it was cold. Everyone was shivering on the boat (laughs). Still, thanks to the very fun guide and crew, everyone seemed to be smiling and having a great time! We could see some sea turtles here and there. The coldness remained at the sandbar as well... Everyone cautiously changed into their swimsuits and entered the water, but it was still cold (laughs). Just as a light rain started to fall, the chill increased, but since we came all this way, we decided to challenge ourselves with snorkeling! The water was a bit murky, but we were still able to see coral and various beautiful fish, which made us satisfied! We were really hungry, so the sandwiches and snacks that tasted like Doritos after returning to the boat were very delicious. I definitely wanted to participate on a nice weather day, but this became a good memory in its own way. I was worried that the morning-only tour might feel insufficient, but I was completely satisfied even with the short time! After that, we returned to Waikiki and were able to do some shopping, so I felt like we used our time effectively. As mentioned in everyone's reviews, the return bus can be chilly since you are wet, so a jacket is essential, and a bath towel is a must! Since there were just two of us, we brought two towels, but we each used one and got wet, so I thought it would have been nice to have one more for covering up on the return bus.
朝から曇っていて風も強く、寒い1日でした。みんな船内でブルブル震えていました(笑)
それでもとっても楽しいガイドさんやクルーの皆さんのおかげで皆笑顔で楽しそうでした!
ウミガメもチラホラ見えました。サンドバーについても寒いのは変わらず・・・。
みんな恐る恐る水着になり、海へ入っていきましたがやっぱり寒い(笑)
ちょうど小雨も降ってきたので寒さ倍増でしたが、せっかく来たのでシュノーケルに挑戦!
海の中はにごった感じでしたが、それでも珊瑚やいろんな綺麗なお魚を見る事ができ満足でした!
お腹ぺこぺこだったので船に戻ったあとのサンドイッチとドリトスみたいなお菓子がとっても美味しく感じました。
天気の良いときにもちろん参加したかったのですが、これはこれで良い思い出になりました。
午前のみのツアーで、物足りないのかなー?と心配でしたが、全然短い時間でも満足でした!
そのあとまたワイキキに戻り、お買い物できたので時間が有効に使えるなーと思いました。
皆さんのレビューにもあるように、帰りのバスは自分が濡れていることもあり冷えますので
上着はもちろん、バスタオルは必須です!私達は2人でしたので2枚持って行きましたが、
それぞれ1枚ずつ使って濡れてしまったので、帰りのバスでのひざかけ用にもう1枚あれば良かったなーと思いました。

ウミガメがあまり見れなかった事は少し残念でしたが、シュノーケルの説明も分かりやすくて良かったです。何と言っても船上でお肉を焼いてくれて食べたハンバーガーが美味しかったです。

The submarine ride was my first experience ever... The deep sea off the coast of Hawaii was truly mysterious. There were moments where the scenery was quite repetitive, so children might get a bit bored. We spotted a few sea turtles near a sunken ship. Personally, I wanted to experience some thrill, so I was hoping to see sharks, but they didn't appear... That was the only disappointment.
生まれて初めて乗った潜水艦・・・
ハワイ沖の深海はとっても神秘的でした。
けっこう同じ景色が続く場面もありましたのでお子様は少し飽きてしまうかも。沈没船?の付近でウミガメを数匹発見。個人的にはスリルを味わいたかったのでサメも見たかったのですが現れず・・それだけが残念でした。

On March 29, I participated in a cruise with snacks included. It was my return day, but since I could get back to Waikiki in the morning, it was great to make effective use of my time instead of wandering around aimlessly. I was able to see many turtles, and the sandbar was beautiful because the weather was nice. My nearly 80-year-old mother joined me, and the ship's guide was kind and considerate. However, at the point of disembarking from the ship, the water came up to around her waist, so she decided not to get off. (It’s only knee-deep a little further in, but even without snorkeling, a swimsuit is necessary.)
3月29日、軽食付きのクルーズに参加しました。帰国日でしたが、午前中にワイキキに戻れるので、下手にウロウロするより時間を有効に使えてよかったです。カメさんもたくさん見ることができたし、天気がよかったのでサンドバーも美しかったです。
80歳近い母も一緒でしたが船のガイドさんは親切で、気をつかってくれました。ただ、船から下りるところだけ、腰の辺りまで水につかってしまうので、母は下りるのを断念しました。(少し歩けばひざ下の深さですが、シュノーケリングをしなくても下は水着が必要です)

It seems that there have been more TV program shoots recently, and it's a place that often gets featured. Since it's a bit away from the beach, you can take interesting photos. The tour bus can be cold inside, so you'll need something to wear over your clothes. For those renting a car, it's recommended to stop by Kailua or Hawaii Kai on the way back.
最近TV番組のロケが増えたようで、よく取り上げられる場所。
浜から少し離れた場所なので、写真を撮っても面白く撮れます。
ツアーバスは車内が寒いので、羽織るものが必要です。
レンタカーの方は帰りにカイルアやハワイカイなどに寄れるので、こちらの方がオススメかな。

The whale watching cruise was great. I was worried about seasickness, but the Navatek was a large ship, and it didn't sway at all, so I was fine. The breakfast served was also delicious. From the ship, the view of Waikiki Beach, the hotels, and Diamond Head, which I climbed yesterday, was stunning against the blue sky. That scenery can only be seen from the ship. As for the whales, they were there. They jumped out of the water twice. Unfortunately, I couldn't take any photos. I also saw a lot of bubbles during their breathing. The captain pointed out the bubbles while chasing them, and I was able to see the tail fin. To be honest, I didn't think I would see them, but I saw them perfectly. It was amazing.
ホエールウォッチングクルーズ,船酔いが心配でしたが、ナバテック号は大きな船で、全然揺れず、大丈夫でした。付いた朝食もおいしく頂きました。船からは、ワイキキビーチ、ホテル群、昨日登ったダイヤモンドヘッドが青空に映え、素晴らしい景色でした。あの風景は、船からしか見られませんね。鯨ですが、いました。2度も海面上に飛び上がってくれました。残念ながら写真は撮れませんでした。後は、呼吸時の泡が沢山見えました。船長さんが、泡を指差しながら、追いかけてくれ、尾びれを見る事が出来ました。正直言って見れるとわ思いませんでしたが、バッチリ見ました。最高でした。

I was able to enjoy various water slides. The crowd was mostly families, and it started to get quite crowded around noon. At first, I could slide down the water slides right away, but as it got busier, I ended up waiting almost an hour, and time flew by quickly.
I wished I had a bit more time to stay, and I was a bit disappointed that the air conditioning on the shuttle bus was too strong, making it quite cold.
色々なウォータースライダーを楽しめました。客層は家族連れが多く、昼頃になるとかなり混み始めました。初めのうちはすぐウォータースライダーを滑ることができたのですが、混み始めると1時間近く待つほどになってしまい、時間が過ぎるのがあっという間でした。
もう少し滞在時間が欲しいなと思ったのと、送迎のバスの冷房が効きすぎてかなり寒かったのでそこだけ残念でした。

This trip to Hawaii was a three-generation adventure. The kids (ages 6 and 7) and my parents (both over 60) experienced snorkeling for the first time. Initially, I planned to go out to the reef alone, but after hearing Chieko's encouragement, we all decided to give it a try! In the end, only my sister, my nephew, and I made it out to the reef, but Chieko's heartfelt desire to show us something special really came through (tears). The group that went out to the reef was with Dan. Dan was incredibly kind and held my nephew's hand the whole way. Fortunately, we were able to see two large turtles. The only disappointing part was that my GoPro froze halfway through, so I couldn't capture the moments (tears). I really wanted to film us swimming together!!! I'll save that for next time. Thank you, Chieko and Dan, for all your help this time. I definitely want to ask for your assistance again. Thank you very much.
今回のハワイ旅行は三世代。子供(6歳と7歳)と両親(二人とも60過ぎ)はシュノーケルが初体験。はじめは私だけが沖までいく予定でしたがチエコさんのお話を聞いて全員でトライすることに!結果、沖までいけたのは私と姉と甥っ子のみでしたが、チエコさんの「どうにか見せてあげたい!」というお気持ちがかなり伝わりました(泣)沖へ行く組はダンさんと一緒に。ダンさんもものすごく優しくて甥っ子の手をずっと引いて行ってくれました。ラッキーなことに大きな亀さんが二匹も見ることが出来ました。私のGOPROが途中でフリーズしてしまい撮影出来なかったことだけが残念です(泣)一緒に泳いだところを撮りたかった!!!それはまた次回のお楽しみにとっておきます。チエコさん、ダンさん今回はお世話になりました。また絶対にお願いしたいと思います。ありがとうございました。
The snorkeling tour with the three-generation family was so much fun! I was really happy to see everyone trying their best. Even the grandparents, who initially planned not to swim, did very well and were able to reach the white buoy in the backyard, where we saw a large school of ladyfish. Please come again when you visit Hawaii. Next time, let's all swim out together to see the cute turtles in Hanauma! I look forward to seeing you all again. Thank you! Mahalo!!
三世代ファミリーでのシュノーケリングツアー、楽しかったですね!!皆さんが頑張ってトライしてくれて、私もうれしかったです。最初は泳がないつもりだったお祖父様、お祖母様もとてもお上手で、バックヤードの白ブイまで行くことが出来て大きなレディフィッシュの群れも見れましたね。是非またハワイにお越しの際には皆さんで来てください。次回は皆さんでアウトサイドまで泳いでまたハナウマのかわいい亀さんを見に行きましょうね!!またお会いできるのを楽しみに待っています。ありがとうございました。Mahalo!!

I think our guides name was AC... he was amazing, had so much interesting information, made the drive to the north shore very entertaining.
First stop was Haleiwa Town on the north shore where we could have a look around and even got to try the famous shave ice. Next a drive along the shore to see all the amazing beaches and even some celebrity houses, then had a stop at the pipeline for some photos, and then he took us to see all the activities so we knew what they all were.
My friend and I chose the waterfall hike/swim, then AC took us the Waimea Bay for a swim, then the kayaking in the afternoon, and a great burger from Haleiwa Town. On the way back to Waikiki we stopped at a beach famous for turtles and we saw one on the beach. AC then dropped us off at the dole plantation - a complete surprise - so we could have a look around and try the dole whip. On the drive back AC played some stand up comedy on the tv so we could all relax and have a laugh.
Overall an incredible day!

It was 110 meters high, but I thought it could have been even higher.
Also, we were lucky enough to see whales, which was moving!
While waiting for the other participants, the boat was rocking quite a bit, so I think it would be better for those who get seasick to take motion sickness medication before joining!

Since this was my first time in Hawaii and I was staying at Aulani, I signed up for this tour because it was affordable and included transportation. We participated as a group of four adults and three children (ages 7, 3, and 1). It seemed that we were the only Japanese family among about ten other guests.
Our guide was a second-generation Japanese American, and after explaining in English, he also provided explanations in Japanese, which was very helpful. Shortly after we set sail, we were lucky enough to spot two turtles on the surface of the water! The guide mentioned they might be dead, but they were alive, and both the kids and adults got really excited. A little later, the guide shouted, and when we went out to the deck, we saw a whale spouting water and lifting its tail. We even got to witness a spectacular jump from one of the whales!! We also saw whales seemingly communicating with each other by blowing saltwater. I had heard that there are days when you might not see any whales, so I went with half-hearted expectations and half hope, but I never imagined we would see a jump, so it was truly amazing. If I have the chance to go to Hawaii again, I would love to participate again.
初めてのハワイでアウラニに宿泊するので、送迎付きで安かったのでこのツアーを申し込みました。大人4人、子供3人(7歳、3歳、1歳)で参加しました。ガイドが英語となっているだけあってか、日本人はうちのファミリーのみでほか10名ほどほかのお客さんと一緒でした。
ガイドさんが、日系2世の方で、英語での説明の後に日本語でも説明してくれてとても助かりました。出航後すぐ、偶然にもカメ2匹が海面に!死んでいるかもしれないとのガイドさんの言葉でしたが、生きていて子供たちも大人もテンションが上がりました。少しするとガイドさんが叫び、デッキへ出てみるとクジラが潮を吹いたり、尾ひれをあげたりとしていました。1頭の、豪快なジャンプも見ることができました!!その後も塩を吹いてクジラ同士が会話をしているような姿も見ることができました。クジラを見れない日もあるとのことで、半分あきらめと半分期待で行きましたが、まさかジャンプまで見れるとは思ってもいなかったのでとってもよかったです。またハワイに行くことがあったらまた参加したいです。

Do not be afraid of this activity. First, the tour directors could not have been more friendly and helpful. Second, they could not have made it any easier. They picked us up at the lobby of the hotel, drove us to the bay, got us through the required orientation film and down to the water so efficiently. They have been doing this so long that they anticipated all of our needs (even before we realized that we had the need). Then, guided us into the water and instructed everyone on how to use the shorkle and made us all feel very comfortable. Even the 8 year old twins who are normally a handful. We were slowly guided around the bay and shown fish, eels and turtles. We stopped for pictures occasionally. And, told that we could download them from Facebook later that night.
When we were done, they gave us much needed water and snacks. Much needed because this was a good work out ( for a fat old guy). We got back to the van and were taken right back to our hotel and were the. Already trying to figure out when we could do the excursion again.
So, you don't have to worry about whether or not this is worth doing. And, it couldn't be easier or more enjoyable..

I participated in early January. It was a cold time with rough waves, so I was worried about seasickness and the cold, but I’m really glad I referred to the reviews. I wore a long-sleeve hoodie and took motion sickness medication the day before.
Most of the women who participated looked very uncomfortable due to seasickness. It seems essential to take motion sickness medication. I was able to see dolphins and sea turtles! I was also lucky enough to witness a whale jump, which is unique to this season, and the cruise in nature was very healing. The hamburger was delicious too! There was also a hula show by the crew, making it a very satisfying activity!
1月上旬に参加しました。寒く波も荒い時期でしたので、船酔いと寒さが心配でしたが、口コミを参考にして本当によかったです。長袖パーカーと酔い止めを前日から服用して参加しました。
参加した女性のほとんどが、船酔いでとても辛そうでした。酔い止めは必ず服用した方が良さそうです。イルカ、海亀をみることが出来ました!この時期ならではクジラのジャンプも運よく見れて、大自然の中のクルーズ癒されました。ハンバーガーも美味しかったです!クルーの方のフラショーもあり、大満足なアクティビティーでした!
