サンドバー キャプテンブルース 天国の海®︎シュノーケリングクルーズ SUPや浮き輪などレンタルアイテムも!<午前・午後/日本語クルー>

My first time in Hawaii. 初めてのハワイ

Reviewed by: レイチェル

I traveled to Hawaii with my family for my wedding. The sandbar was different from what I expected due to high tide, but I was very satisfied with snorkeling and swimming with sea turtles. We had plenty of time to enjoy our stay. I would definitely like to use this opportunity again if I get the chance!\(^^)/

自身の結婚式の為、家族とハワイ旅行です。
サンドバーは満潮で思っていた様子と違いましたが、シュノーケリングをやったり海亀と泳いだり大満足です。滞在時間もしっかりありました。
また機会があれば是非利用したいです\(^^)/

サンドバー天使の海 シュノーケリング&ウミガメウォッチクルーズ 船上のBBQグリルで焼くハンバーガーランチ付き!<午前/日本語クルー>

It feels like an island close to heaven. 天国にし近い島の雰囲気かな

Reviewed by: KAM

On the day, it wasn't the time when the sandy beach was elevated, but we were able to enjoy ourselves thoroughly. The photos taken from above the water looked very atmospheric. The way the island was reflected was also very nice. I wish it had been a bit sunnier, but it wasn't too hot, and I was very satisfied.

当日は砂浜が浮き上がっている時間帯ではありませんでいたが、十分に楽しむことができました。海の水の上から、自分たちを移した写真が大変雰囲気良く映ってくれました。島を爆気にした映り方も大変雰囲気が良かったものでした。できればもう少し晴れていてほしかったですが、暑くも無く、大変満足です。

ハナウマ湾シュノーケリング ベテラン日本語ガイドがご案内する少人数制ツアー 貸切プランあり<半日>

More than I expected... 思っていたより…

Reviewed by: ayuzuto

I was looking forward to it, so I was a bit disappointed. Hanauma Bay was murky, probably due to the high tide, and it wasn't worth the money to pay for it. Compared to Guam and Saipan... it was disappointing. The female instructor... she might need to be that assertive to live in Hawaii, but her condescending tone from start to finish was very unpleasant. I thought it was pointless to get angry halfway through, so I gave up and got used to it. Mr. Dan was surprisingly nice, and I felt he had a good balance. They provided transportation, the equipment was very good, they explained how to use it properly, there was no wasted time, and they took good care of the family who was snorkeling for the first time. We even got to see sea turtles, and they took photos for us. There were more good things than bad, but... I'm done with it.

楽しみにしていたので少しがっかりでした。
ハナウマ湾は大潮だったせいか、濁っていてわざわざお金を払って払う程の海ではありませんでした。グアム、サイパンに比べたら……残念でした。女性インストラクターさんは…ハワイで暮らすにはあれぐらい気が強くないとやっていけないのかもしれませんが、最初から最後まで上目線の話し方でとても不愉快でした。途中から腹を立てても仕方がないと考え、諦めたら慣れました。ダン先生は驚くほど良い人で、バランスがとれてるのだと感じました。送迎あり、機材はとても良く、きちんと使い方を説明してくれ、時間に無駄がなく、初めてのシュノーケリングする家族の面倒も良く見て頂けて、ウミガメにも会えて、写真も撮ってくれて、良いことの方が多いのですが……私はもういいです。

Thank you for visiting with your family of seven, including your eight-year-old child. On that afternoon, we experienced the highest tide of the day, which was over 80 cm higher than the low tide in the morning. This may have made things quite challenging for your family. However, I believe everyone did an amazing job and persevered until the end without any retirements.

Our tours are conducted in the natural environment of the ocean, so just like the weather, there are good days and some that are a bit disappointing. Regardless of the conditions, we prioritize your safety and guide you along the best route possible. Hanauma Bay is truly a beautiful place, and I sincerely hope you will have the opportunity to visit again.

Lastly, I deeply apologize for any discomfort caused by my lack of consideration in addressing your needs. I will strive to be more attentive in the future, ensuring that everyone has a satisfying and enjoyable experience. I am truly sorry for any inconvenience caused. I look forward to the day we can meet again, and I appreciate your continued support. Thank you very much.

この度は8歳のお子様より3世代ファミリー7名様でお越しいただきましてありがとうございます。この日の午後は大潮の一番満ち潮時に重なり、午前の引き潮時と比べれば80cm以上の差があったために、ご家族様には通常より大変だったかもしれません。ですが、一人のリタイアも無く、皆様はとても上手に最後まで頑張ってくださり素晴らしかったと思います。私達のツアーは海という自然が相手のツアーですから、お天気と同じで良い日もあればちょっと残念な状態の日もございます。どんな時でもお客様の安全を第一に、そのコンディションの中でも最適なルートをご案内させていただいております。ハナウマ湾は本当に綺麗な所ですので、機会がありましたら是非また来ていただきたいと切に願っております。
最後になりますが、私の配慮に欠けたお客様への対応により、大変ご不快な思いをさせてしまったこと、大変申し訳なく思っております。今後はもっと気配りのある態度で皆様に接し、皆様に満足し楽しんでいただけるよう更に努力致します。本当に大変申し訳ございませんでした。またいつかお会いできますことをお待ちしておりますので、今後ともどうぞ宜しくお願い致します。ありがとうございました。

イルカ中学 野生のイルカ&ウミガメシュノーケリングクルーズ 高速ボートでイルカ遭遇率アップ!<少人数制/ワイキキ&コオリナ送迎可/日本語/ランチ付き>

I recommend it! おすすめです!

Reviewed by: 三世代ママ

We participated in the Dolphin Academy with Grandpa, Dad, and our son! (This is a post from Mom, who only signed up.) It seemed tough to gather at 5:30 in the morning, but we could sleep on the bus, and since we returned in the early afternoon, we could go shopping afterward, which seemed just right time-wise!

On the day we participated, we were lucky enough to see dolphins, turtles, and seals, and Grandpa was super excited. He said it was the most fun he had on this trip to Hawaii! He mentioned that next time, he wants to go to Dolphin University. They also take photos and provide the data, so I highly recommend it!

じぃじとパパと息子の3人でイルカ中学に参加しました!(申し込みだけしたママの投稿です)朝早く5時半に集合は辛そうだったけど、バスの中で寝れるし、帰りはお昼過ぎなのでその後も買い物に行けるし、時間的にちょうど良さそうでした!

参加した日は運良く、イルカ、カメ、アザラシを見ることをが出来、じぃじが大興奮したとのこと。今回のハワイ旅行で一番楽しかったと言ってました!次回はイルカ大学に行くとも言ってます。写真も撮ってくれるし、データもくれるし、とってもおすすめです!

I wanted to do something special in Hawaii, so I signed up for this wild dolphin tour. As a result, I had a truly valuable experience! Our guide, Juri, and all the crew members were very kind, and I appreciate how they paid attention to my son, who was the youngest participant. My son was thrilled to see dolphins doing twist jumps from the boat. My husband and I were moved to see dolphins swimming underwater. When our child grows up and is able to snorkel, we definitely want to participate again! Thank you for the wonderful experience.

As soon as I dove in, I encountered a pod of dolphins. 潜ったらすぐイルカの群れ

Reviewed by: パンケーキ太郎

The difference from university is that there are no activities like SUP, and the food (at university, it's a bento? Here, it was potato chips and spam musubi. It was really delicious). Since you can do SUP anywhere, I participated in the middle school program purely to enjoy dolphin swimming.

We were picked up in Waikiki, and during the ride to Waianae, the guide provided explanations. The guide was a bright, athletic woman, and she was really entertaining, making it so that I didn't feel sleepy at all despite the early start. In the middle school program, the dolphins were the teachers, the turtles were the professors, and the guide was like the class representative, with both the guide and us seeking knowledge from the teachers.

With high expectations, we headed out. Waiting for us at the beach harbor was a magnificent catamaran that could hold over 20 people. It was a huge step up from a diving boat that looked like a fishing boat, and it didn't sway at all, so I think even those who are not good on boats would be fine.

When we reached the dive point and jumped in, there were more than ten dolphins just below the surface! It was breathtaking. You have to swim quite a bit to chase the dolphins, so it can be a bit tiring, but with fins, even those who aren't strong swimmers or lack stamina need not worry.

We were in the water for about 30 minutes, and I got to see the adorable sight of dolphins playing with each other, which was both mystical and very healing. While holding my snorkel, I quietly tried to greet them with a high voice saying, "Aloha... Aloha..." (laughs).

After that, we had some free time for snorkeling at another spot, and I was able to see sea turtles up close. Before returning to the harbor, we were also taught hula dancing. All the staff were fun and nice, making it a great experience! Just watching from above the sea would be a waste! I highly recommend this experience if you go to Hawaii!

大学との違いはSUPなどのアクティビティがないことと、ご飯の中身(大学はお弁当?こちらはポテトチップとスパムむすび。すごく美味しかった)。
SUPとかはどこでもできるので、純粋にドルフィンスイムを楽しみたくて中学に参加しました。
ワイキキでピックアップされ、ワイアナエまで向かう間はガイドさんの説明。体育会系な明るい女性の方だったのですが、これがすっごく面白くて、早朝出発でも全く眠くならず。中学はイルカ先生、カメが大教授、ガイドさんは学級委員で、ガイドさんも我々も、先生たちに教えを乞うというスタンスです。
期待を胸に向かいます。
ビーチハーバーで迎えてくれたのは20人以上乗れるであろう立派なカタマラン。漁船に毛が生えたようなダイビング船とは段違い、全然揺れないので船が苦手な方でも大丈夫だと思います。
いざポイントについて潜ると、その瞬間水面のすぐ下に10頭以上の群れ!感動です。
イルカを追って結構泳がないといけないので、ちょっと疲れますが…フィンがあるので泳げない方や体力に自信のない方も心配いりません。
海の中にいたのは30分くらいかな?イルカ同士でじゃれあっている可愛らしい姿も見られたし、なんだか神秘的でもあり、とても癒されました。
シュノーケルくわえながら、そっと高い声で「アロハ…アロハ…」と語りかけてみてました笑
そのあと別のポイントで自由にシュノーケリング。海ガメもすぐそばで見られました。港につく前にフラダンスも教えてもらいました。スタッフみなさん面白くていい人で楽しかった!
海の上から見るだけじゃもったいない!ハワイに行ったらぜひ体験してほしいです!

Great way to experience the west coast

We had Bob take us out to the west coast for the day, he was super knowledgeable about the history of Hawaii and provided a great cultural insight Into the lifestyle of the people.

We visited a magnificent cave, and several picturesque locations, followed up with a snorkel that was really appropriate to our skill level (intermediate).

He took plenty of pictures for us, and it was good to know that the tour went ahead regardless of numbers.

Fantastic day, best one of the holiday yet!

ハナウマ湾シュノーケリング ベテラン日本語ガイドがご案内する少人数制ツアー 貸切プランあり<半日>

I was able to see turtles. 亀も見れました

Reviewed by: カンタベリーで感動した人

On the day of the tour, we had a plan for the afternoon, and it was just my husband and me participating. Our guide was Chieko, a very friendly Japanese woman. She was quite experienced, and she seemed to know everyone at Hanauma Bay. It had been quite a challenge for us since we participated in a snorkeling tour in Saipan 30 years ago, but Chieko efficiently taught us the snorkeling techniques, so we felt comfortable joining in. She also took underwater photos and shared them with us. She guided us expertly to points where many fish were swimming. To our surprise, we even saw a turtle. It was an unforgettable and wonderful memory. I’m really glad we participated. Hanauma Bay is thoroughly protected, so the water is very clear and beautiful, and the fish are impressively large. They grow big because they are protected. We saw mongooses playing on the beach. With the life jackets, we floated safely, and by moving our fins, we could swim forward. All we had to do was breathe through our mouths instead of our noses. My husband and I confidently recommend this tour to everyone.

当日は午後からのプランで、参加者は私達夫婦だけでした。担当はchiekoさん。とっても気さくな、日本の方でした。相当なベテランの方で、ハナウマ湾の係りの方は皆、知り合いでした。私達はなにしろ、サイパンで30年前にシュノーケルツアーに参加して以来のチャレンジですが、chiekoさんが手際よくシュノーケルの要領を教えてくれたので安心して参加出来ました。水中写真も撮っていただいてアップして下さいました。魚が沢山泳いでいるポイントを要領よく案内していただきました。なんと、亀も見れました。一生忘れられない素晴らしい思い出です。本当に参加して良かったです。ハナウマ湾は自然保護が徹底しているので、水はとっても透き通ってきれいですし、お魚さんのなんと大きいこと。迫力満点です。保護されているので、大きく育つそうです。海岸ではマングースが遊んでいました。ライフジャケットで体は浮いているので、安心ですし、足ヒレを動かせば前に進みます。後は鼻で息をしないで、口で呼吸すればいいだけです。私達夫婦はこのツアーを自信を持って皆さんに推薦します。

Thank you for participating in the tour. Since it had been a while since you last went snorkeling, we took our time practicing in the shallow waters before guiding you. It was truly wonderful to be surrounded by a school of convict tangs, swim with a large parrotfish, and finally meet a turtle! Thank you for swimming all the way from the right end to the left end of Hanauma Bay. We look forward to having you both join us for another tour when you come back to Hawaii. Thank you very much.

It was an early morning tour, but our guide was very energetic. Their desire to entertain us was very evident, and the time flew by until we arrived. Fortunately, we were able to encounter dolphins right away. I was surprised at how close they were to the shore. It was challenging to anticipate their movements since they swim quickly, but I was glad to see wild dolphins. After that, we headed to the turtle spot, but they didn't appear for a while. Suddenly, one showed up nearby, and we were able to take great photos. All the staff were wonderful, and it was a fantastic tour.

朝早いツアーでしたが、テンションがとても高いガイドさんでした。でも楽しませようという気持ちがとても伝わり、到着まであっという間でした。私たちは運よくすぐにイルカさんと遭遇することができました。思ってた以上に岸に近くてびっくりしました。イルカさんは早いので先回りしなければならないのが大変でしたが、野生のイルカさんを見ることができてよかったです。その後カメのスポットに向かいましたが、なかなか現れませんでしがが、急に近くに現れいい写真が撮れました。スタッフみなさんはいい人ばかりで、とてもいいツアーでした。

I was healed by the dolphins~ イルカに癒された~

Reviewed by: Yママ

We participated with our 3-year-old child. Meeting at the hotel at 5:30 AM was quite tough for both the child and the parents. I thought we could sleep on the bus, but it was hard to get any rest, and my husband was a bit worn out by the time we arrived.

I was worried that the boat would be like a rubber dinghy based on past photos, but I was relieved to find out it had been upgraded to a large boat (with a restroom)! Once we boarded, we encountered a pod of dolphins within about 10 minutes. My husband and I took turns snorkeling while our child enjoyed watching the dolphins jump and sea turtles from the boat.

When we reached the snorkeling point, my daughter (3 years old) expressed a desire to dive into the sea, so I told her we could go in together. I was very grateful that a guide stayed right by our side the entire time we were in the water.

The guides and photographers were all very energetic, and at first, I was worried about keeping up with their enthusiasm. However, they paid close attention to the participants and provided excellent care, which made me feel reassured.

On our way back to the harbor, we were delighted to see flying fish in front of the boat and spotted sea turtles multiple times, which made us very happy. More than anything, I never knew swimming with dolphins could be so healing!

Since my daughter is still only 3 years old and couldn't snorkel, we couldn't dive together, but I definitely want to participate again when she is old enough to snorkel.

3歳の子連れで参加しました。 朝5時30分ホテル集合が子供も親もかなりきつかった。。。バスの中でも寝れるかと思いきや、なかなか寝かせてもらえず主人は到着までにちょっとばててました。 
船は過去の写真からゴムボートのような船かと思い心配していましたが、大きな船にグレードアップしたとの事で、実際大きな船で安心(トイレ付)!
船に乗ると10分ほどでイルカの群れにすぐに出会え、夫婦で交代でシュノーケルに参加し子供は船の上からイルカのジャンプやウミガメなどを見て楽しんでいました。
その後シュノーケルポイントに行った時、娘(3歳)も海に潜りたいというので一緒に海に入ることを伝えると、入っている間ガイドの方が一人ずっとそばについていてくれとてもありがたかったです。
ガイドさん、カメラマンさん皆様かなり元気で、最初はそのテンションについていけるか心配だったのですが参加者の方々をよく見ていて、ケアもしっかりしていて安心できました。
帰港する際にもトビウオが船の前を飛んでいたりホヌも何度も見れ幸せな気持ちになりましたが、なによりもイルカと泳ぐのがこんなに癒されるとは知りませんでした! 
娘はまだ3歳なのでシュノーケルができず一緒に潜れなかったのですが、シュノーケルができる年齢になったらぜひまた参加したいと思っています。

ハナウマ湾シュノーケリング 日本語ガイドが海の世界へご案内<シュノーケルセット/終日>

Hanauma Bay, the No. 1 beach in the United States for 2016. ハナウマベイ 2016年度全米No.1ビーチ

Reviewed by: Jun

Thank you, Dan and your wife. This was my fourth time on Oahu, but it was my first time snorkeling at Hanauma Bay. It was a very beautiful location, and both my husband and I were very satisfied. Although it was disappointing not to encounter any sea turtles, we were happy to see many beautiful fish.

ガイドのダンご夫妻、ありがとうございました
オアフ島は今回で4回目でしたが、ハナウマベイでシュノーケリングしたのは、はじめてでした。
とても美しいロケーションで、夫婦共に大満足でした☺️海ガメに出会えなかったのは残念でしたが、色々なキレイな魚に出会えましたので良かったです。

イルカ中学 野生のイルカ&ウミガメシュノーケリングクルーズ 高速ボートでイルカ遭遇率アップ!<少人数制/ワイキキ&コオリナ送迎可/日本語/ランチ付き>

Dr. Dolphin イルカ先生

Reviewed by: ハル☆

I had always dreamed of swimming with dolphins, so I was really looking forward to this tour! The morning was very early, so I was a bit sleepy (laughs), but our guide, Julie, was full of energy and really entertaining.

We spotted the dolphins about five minutes after getting on the boat! I heard that sometimes it can take hours to find them, so we were lucky. I was very satisfied to see so many dolphins!

I was also happy to see a turtle during the snorkeling afterward!

I would love to join again when I come back to Oahu!

Just one thing... if I could share my opinion, the photo prices are a bit high, so I think it would be easier to buy them if they were a bit more affordable!

イルカと一緒に泳ぐのが夢だったのでとても楽しみにして、こちらのツアーに参加しました☆朝がとっても早かったので…眠かったですけど(笑)案内してくれたジュリーさんがとっても元気でテンション高くて面白かったです。

船に乗って五分ぐらいでイルカ先生を発見!!見つからない時は何時間も探すみたいなので、運が良かったみたい。
沢山のイルカちゃんが見れて大満足☆

その後のシュノーケルでカメちゃんも見れて幸せ☆

またオアフ島に来たら参加したいです☆

一つだけ…意見を言わせて貰うと、写真販売があるんだけど、値段がもうちょい手頃だと買いやすいかと思います!

西オアフで体験するパワースポット&シュノーケリングツアー<日本語ガイド兼インストラクター/送迎付き>

If you're looking for a tour in West Oahu, this is the place! 西オアフのツアーなら、ここです!

Reviewed by: ツノダシ

I had been wanting to visit West Oahu, but I hesitated because the guidebook mentioned a lot of car break-ins and that the area wasn't very safe. Then I found out about this tour.

In the end, it was a great decision to participate in this tour. I highly recommend it. The group was small, with just two couples including my spouse and me, which was perfect for those who want to enjoy the tour at their own pace.

With Akima as our Japanese guide, we learned about the history of West Oahu, the traces of Tahitians who are said to have landed there, and the sacred cave of KANEANA, which sparked our imagination about Hawaii's history.

For lunch, we enjoyed a relaxed atmosphere at a park by the beach where locals were having barbecues, and we had our lunch in the shade of trees. It felt like we were locals for a moment.

The beach was not crowded, and we could enjoy snorkeling at our leisure while locals jumped into the sea and did stand-up paddleboarding. The water was clear, and while there weren't an overwhelming number of fish, we did see a few, including a honu napping on the seabed.

The couple we toured with mentioned they had participated in various tours, but they were excited and said, "This is the kind of tour we like."

Next time, I would like Akima to guide us around the entire island of Oahu.

西オアフに行ってみたいと思っていましたがガイドブックでは車上荒らしが多く治安がよくないと書かれており躊躇していたところ、このツアーがあることを見つけました。
結果、参加して大変よかったツアーです。おすすめのツアーです。
参加は少人数で、当日は私たち夫婦含めて2組、穏やかに自分のペースでツアーに参加したいという方には丁度よい人数です。
アキマさんの日本語ガイドで、西オアフの歴史やタヒチアンが上陸されたとされる痕跡やKANEANAの神聖な洞窟の案内は、ハワイの歴史の想像をかきたてるものでした。
ランチは、ローカルの人がバーベキューを楽しんだりゆったりした雰囲気のビーチ前の公園で、木陰でランチタイム。ローカルの人になった気分を味わえました。
ローカルの人が海に飛び込んだり、スタンドアップパドルをしたり思い思いに楽しんでいるビーチは混雑もなく、シュノーケリングをゆったり楽しめました。海は透明度が高く、魚はあふれるほどいる、というほどではありませんが、フヌフヌプクプクアプアアや海底で昼寝をしているホヌもみれました。
ツアーにご一緒したご夫婦もいろんなツアーに参加されていらっしゃるとのことでしたが、「こういうツアーがいい」と興奮しておられました。
今度は、アキマさんにオアフ島一周を案内してもらいたいと思っています。

Hanauma Bay Snorkel Tour with Expert Guide & Waikiki Transportation

So Many Fish!!!

Reviewed by: Brian

I want to start this review by saying that Kieko (our guide) picked us up at our hotel and I was not in the right pick up area. She was actually walking around calling out my name and found me. I cannot thank her enough!!!

The tour was about a half day long - we went in the morning, which I would recommend because it can get crowded at Hanauma as the day goes on.

We were able to lock up our valuables while we were in the water. The tram ride down and back up to the parking lot was awesome

As for the snorkelling - it was AMAZING. I cannot believe how many different species of marine life we saw. So much fun. I did not want to get out of the water!

Awesome trip!

Reviewed by: M&m's Mom

My 18 and 21 year old "kids" and I had an amazing afternoon aboard the Spirit of Aloha. The captain and crew were friendly and very knowledgeable about the catamaran and about the area's flora and fauna. The gear supplied was well maintained and they had the correct optical masks for both of us that were glasses. We swam with several Honu as well as dozens of tropical fish. All in all it was a fantastic day and we are so happy that we made the trip.

  • from my head to my toes it was an amazing trip

The benefits of having a guided tour are significant! ガイド付きにするメリット大きい!

Reviewed by: カハラ

In recent years, entry to Hanauma Bay has become more regulated, requiring various procedures to gain access. The tour guide prepared tickets in advance and provided priority entry to the parking lot. This made for a stress-free experience for snorkeling at Hanauma Bay.

近年のハナウマ湾は規制が厳しく入場するのもいろいろな手順を踏んでいかないといけません。
このツアーのガイドさんは事前にチケット準備したり、駐車場にも優先?入場可能で。ストレスフリーでハナウマ湾のシュノーケリングに臨めました。

サンドバー キャプテンブルース 天国の海®︎シュノーケリングクルーズ SUPや浮き輪などレンタルアイテムも!<午前・午後/日本語クルー>

It was fun. 楽しかったです

Reviewed by: むさごん

It wasn't a sunny day, so the water was quite cold when we got in, but we were able to enjoy a different kind of sea than Waikiki and even encountered sea turtles. The lunch on the boat was also quite delicious. After that, my father and high school students seemed to have a great time snorkeling, taking pictures of corals and sea turtles with their cameras. My mother and elementary school students enjoyed themselves with the rental floaties and paddle boats during that time. The boat didn't feel too rocky, but there were about 5 or 6 people who got seasick, so motion sickness medication might be necessary. The staff were all cheerful and fun, and they took great pictures with our cameras.

However... about two months ago, I made a reservation for the best day after checking the tides, but suddenly, less than a month before, I was told it was canceled due to a movie shoot. When I tried to book on another low tide day, I was told it was already full. I thought about canceling, but since it was the event I was looking forward to the most, I participated with faint hopes, even though it was on a king tide day. But as expected... the tide level was 160 cm, which meant the water was up to about half my face. Those who weren't good swimmers seemed to struggle. I knew we wouldn't be able to see the beautiful sandbar, but the result was too disappointing. Even though it cost over 50,000 yen, it was canceled so easily that I couldn't accept it, and now I feel like I want to try again next time, but also not...

晴天ではなかったので、海に入るとかなり冷たかったですが、ワイキキとは違う海を楽しむことができ、海亀とも出会えました。船上のランチも、なかなか美味しかったです。その後、父と高校生はシュノーケリングで、サンゴや海亀を持参したカメラで撮ったりと満喫したようです。母と小学生はその間貸し出しの浮き輪、パドルボートで楽しめました。船はそんなに揺れる感じではなかったですが、酔ってダウンしている方が5〜6人はいらっしゃったので、酔い止めは必要かも…。スタッフの方はみなさん明るく楽しく、という感じで、持参のカメラでもしっかり撮って頂きました。

ただ…二ヶ月ほど前に、潮を調べて一番良い日を予約したにもかかわらず、一ヶ月をきってから突然、映画撮影のためと言われキャンセルになり、他の潮の低い日に申し込んでも、もういっぱいですと言われ…。キャンセルしようかとも思ったのですが、一番楽しみにしていたイベントだったため、キングタイドの日でしたが、淡い期待を持って参加しました。しかしやはり…案の定…潮位は160cmの私で顔半分くらいまで…。泳ぎが得意でない人は、みなさん困っていらっしゃいました。サンドバーのあの綺麗な砂が見られないことは分かってはいたけれど、残念すぎる結果でした。5万を超える出費なのに、簡単にキャンセルされて納得いかず、次回リベンジしたいような、したくないような…
