Hanauma Bay Snorkel Tour with Expert Guide & Waikiki Transportation

Great Time!

Reviewed by: Ralph

Dan was the best. We had first class service the whole trip. Dan went out of his way to make sure the kids, as well as the adults, were comfortable in the water and we all had a great time because of the small group size. It was almost as if we had a personalized one on one tour. Snorkeling was great the day we went, we saw tons of fish! Everything from a parrot fish to schools of colorful little fish... and how could I possibly forget my daughters favorite, this little silver looking stick fish! Awesome experience with awesome people! A must-do while in Hawaii!! This is not something that you want to miss!

Hanauma Bay Snorkel Tour with Expert Guide & Waikiki Transportation

Awesome

Reviewed by: Karly

We had so much fun! The kids could not have had a better time. We were picked up promptly at our hotel in a clean and accommodating vehicle. We were given information about people, places, and things that we were passing on our way to the Bay to snorkel. Upon arriving at the Bay we were escorted in, past all lines, to watch a short information movie, and then taken down to the Bay via tram, as not to have to walk. Upon arrival to the actual Bay we were given instructions on how to wear, and use all the provided safety equipment. Upon making sure that we were completely comfortable, the the fun of snorkeling ensued... We had a great time.

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＞

Still wonderful on the second visit. 2回目でも素敵

Reviewed by: YUI

This was my second time participating, and it was fun! The staff's response was excellent! I could feel that they were trying to make us enjoy ourselves. I went in May, and the sandbar was deep from my knees to my thighs. But it wasn't cold, and the weather was really nice, so I was very satisfied. After that, I took a break from snorkeling and played with a float near the boat. Snorkeling is not forced, so those who are scared can enjoy other marine sports. There were also people canoeing and paddle surfing. I was able to see sea turtles up close, and I experienced the essence of Hawaii all at once. I want to participate again.

2回目の参加でしたが、楽しかったです！
スタッフの方の対応も◎！私たちを楽しませようとしてくれているのを感じました。
私が行ったのは5月でしたが、サンドバーはひざから太ももまでの深さでした。
でも寒くもなく、天気もすごく良かったので大満足です。
そのあとのシュノーケルはお休みして、船の近くで浮き輪でずっと遊んでいました。
シュノーケルも強要されないので、怖い方は違うマリンスポーツを楽しめます。
カヌーやパドルサーフィンをやっている方もいました。
ウミガメも近くで見れて、ハワイの醍醐味をいっぺんに味わうことができました。
また参加したいです。

I also got to see a sea turtle! It was so cute! ウミガメにも会えました！可愛かった！

Reviewed by: YUKA

The day we participated was cloudy, so I was worried, but as we went further out, we started to see clear skies.

It's really strange to have a sandy beach even though we're offshore. The corals were large, and we saw a lot of fish. We even got to see a sea turtle, which was very satisfying!

It was beautiful enough, but I think it would have been even more stunning on a clear day. I want to try again when I go to Hawaii!

The guide's explanations were easy to understand and very kind! The sandwich we had on the way back was also delicious.

私たちが参加した日は曇っていたので心配でしたが
沖に進むにつれて晴れ間が見えるようになりました。

沖なのに砂浜が広がっているって本当に不思議な感じです。
サンゴも大きくて魚たちがたくさん見えました＾＾
ウミガメも見ることが出来て大満足！

十分きれいでしたが、快晴だったらもっと綺麗だっただろうなと。
またハワイにいった際にはリベンジしたいです！

ガイドの方の説明も分かりやすく、親切でした！
帰りに食べたサンドイッチも美味しかったです。

First experience! 初体験！

Reviewed by: chie

The weather was a bit off, but I was still able to see sea turtles and go down to the beautiful ocean. On the contrary, because it rained, I was able to see a lovely rainbow.

My first snorkeling experience was possible even though I can't swim! I could see the fish and coral swimming in the clear ocean.

Breakfast was a very simple sandwich and snacks, but maybe because we were on the boat, it tasted delicious.

It was quite cold riding the bus back to Waikiki for an hour while still wet. It would be better to have a few towels to lay on the seat and cover yourself with. I warmed up with a shower as soon as I got to the hotel.

However, since we returned around noon, we had plenty of time to play in the afternoon.

Overall, I was satisfied.

ちょっとお天気がイマイチでしたが、それでもウミガメにも会え、キレイな海に下りることもできました。逆に雨が降ったせいで綺麗な虹を見ることもできました。
人生初のシュノーケル体験は、泳げなくてもできました！透き通った海の中に泳ぐ魚たちと珊瑚を見ることができます。
朝食はすごく簡易的なサンドイッチとスナックですが、船の上だからか美味しく感じました。
濡れたままバスに乗り1時間かけてワイキキへ戻るので、かなり寒かったです。タオルは座席に敷くものとかけるものでいくつかあった方がいいです。ホテルに着いてすぐシャワーで温まりました。
でも、お昼頃には戻るので午後もたっぷり遊べます。
トータル的には満足でした。

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＞

Incredible! Hanauma Bay 感動！ハナウマ湾

Reviewed by: misaki

I went to Hawaii for my first overseas trip. I was torn between Guam and Hawaii, but I decided to go to Hawaii since I was looking forward to enjoying my summer vacation. The day before, I did a little snorkeling at Heaven's Beach, but snorkeling at Hanauma Bay was a completely different kind of fun. Seeing the round, intricate shape of Hanauma Bay, I was moved by the clarity of the water and the beauty of the coral before even getting in. Watching the story of Hanauma Bay's creation and the ecosystem video made me realize that it is a place that is carefully protected.

Up close, the water was truly transparent, and it was an emerald green sea that I had never seen in Japan. As soon as I got in, there were lots of corals and many fish. Thanks to the veteran guide, I felt a sense of security and was able to see a sea turtle, which is not something you can easily encounter. Because of the guide, we were able to visit snorkeling spots that were just on the edge, as well as areas with incredible transparency that are far from the beach and hard to reach. I was really satisfied. Snorkeling at Hanauma Bay was an experience I will never forget because of the clarity and beauty of the sea. I had such a great experience that if anyone around me is going to Hawaii, I would definitely recommend snorkeling at Hanauma Bay. Thank you very much.

初めての海外旅行でハワイに行きました。グアムかハワイか迷いましたが、どうせいくなら、ハワイに行こうと決め、夏休みを楽しみにしていました。前日に、天国の海で少しシュノーケルをしましたが、ハナウマ湾でのシュノーケルは全く違う楽しさがありました。丸く入り組んだハナウマ湾を見て 、海の透明感やサンゴの綺麗さに海に入るまえに感動しました。ハナウマ湾誕生の話や生態系のビデオを見て、大切に護られている場所なんだと実感しました。
近くで見ると、ほんとに海が透き通っていて、日本では見ることのできないエメラルドグリーンの海でした。入ってすぐに珊瑚がたくさんあり、お魚も、たくさんいました。ベテランガイドさんならではの、綺麗なスポットや、安心感もあり、なかなか見ることの出来ないウミガメも二回みることができました。ガイドさんがいたからこそ、ギリギリのシュノーケルスポットや、珊瑚のギリギリのところ、浜辺から遠くてなかなか行くことが出来ない、透明感が抜群のところにも行き、ほんとに満足しました。ハナウマ湾でシュノーケルができて、一生あの海の透明感と綺麗さは忘れることはないと思いました。本当にいい経験が出来たので、周りにハワイに行く人がいたら、ハナウマ湾でのシュノーケルを是非勧めたいと思います。ありがとうございました。

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＞

A valuable experience! 貴重な体験！

Reviewed by: ちはまろ

This was my first trip to Hawaii, and I chose this tour because it was the most popular!

First, I got on the shuttle bus. The instructions said, "Look for staff in blue T-shirts," but in reality, I was called by someone in a different outfit. During the ride, there was a continuous English guide until we reached the port, and I couldn't understand anything... I wished there had been a Japanese option.

Once we arrived at the port, I was relieved to find staff who spoke Japanese. We first headed to the sandbar, where we snorkeled and played volleyball. It was very beautiful, but I felt the water was murkier than I expected. I didn't see any marine life.

After gathering together, it was time for lunch! We were given buns with cheese and a hamburger patty, and we could add our favorite toppings. As someone who is picky, I really appreciated this. There were also pineapples and nachos. It was very delicious.

After that, we headed to a spot where we could see sea turtles. I was able to spot a few turtles popping their heads up. I heard there were manta rays, but they seemed to be on the opposite side, so I was disappointed that I couldn't see them.

Next, we snorkeled near a large coral reef! There were many fish here. However, the water was murkier than I expected, and it might have been clearer in Okinawa... which was a bit disappointing. The guide explained that the first 15 people who entered had a higher chance of swimming with sea turtles. I had given up hope since I entered later, but then I saw a sea turtle!! I was able to swim with it, and it was an emotional experience! It became a precious memory!

As others have mentioned, it was very cold on the bus and when we got out of the water, so a jacket is necessary! Also, sunscreen is a must!

初ハワイにつき、一番人気との事で選びました！！

まずは迎えのバスに乗ってりました。
説明書きには『青いTシャツのスタッフが目印』と書いてありましたが、実際には違う服装の方から名前を呼ばれました。
車内では港に着くまで英語でガイドがひたすらあり、全くわからず…日本語でもあれば良かったと思いました。

港に着いてからは日本語対応のスタッフさんがいたので安心しました。
まずはサンドバーに向かい、シュノーケルをしたり、バレーボールをしたり。
とてもキレイでしたが、思っていたより水が濁っていた印象。生物はなにも見れませんでした。

集合がかかったので向かうと、ランチ！
バンズにチーズとハンバーグが乗った状態で配られ、自分で好きな具を挟んで食べるスタイル。好き嫌いの多い私にとってはとてもありがたかったです。その他にパイナップルとナチョスがありました。
とても美味しかったです。

その後、ウミガメがいるスポットに向かいました。ピョコっと顔を出すウミガメが度々発見出来ました。マンタがいたと声は聞こえましたが、自分とは反対側だった様で見る事が出来ず残念でした。

次は大きな珊瑚礁の付近でシュノーケル！
ここには魚も沢山いました。ただ、ここでも海は思っていたより濁っていて、沖縄の方がキレイだったかも…少し残念でした。
先に入った15人ぐらいはウミガメと泳げる可能性が高いと説明があり。
最後の方に入った為諦めていましたが、ウミガメが！！一緒に泳ぐ事ができ、感動！
貴重な体験となりました！！

他の方も書いている様に、バスの中と、海から上がった時はとても寒かったので上着は必要です！！また日焼け止めも必須です！

They were incredibly kind, and it was great. 凄い親切で良かったです。

Reviewed by: noriko

This time, I participated in this tour because the sea in Heaven was not at low tide. I joined with a light heart, and I'm really glad I did. First of all, the instructors, a couple, were very kind and attentive. Although I had some snorkeling experience, it had been a while, so having the explanation in Japanese was a great help. If you're not confident in English, I highly recommend this! They stay with you throughout the snorkeling, so I think even children can enjoy it. The tour is only available on Mondays, Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays, but if you have the chance, you should definitely participate. They provide everything except for swimwear, and there's also a pick-up service to the hotel. It's okay even if you're not confident in snorkeling or can't swim! It was a pity that I didn't encounter any sea turtles (I snorkeled in the afternoon, but I heard there were turtles in the morning), but that's just luck... Instead, there were plenty of fish, and I swam for nearly an hour without getting bored. You might get tired occasionally, but if you do, you can return to the beach early and take a nap while resting. After snorkeling, we relaxed a bit while eating snacks, which was also very nice! Please give it a try!! I also want to challenge myself again to see a sea turtle when I come back to Hawaii. I'm truly grateful to the instructors.

今回、天国の海が干潮ではないためこちらのツアーに参加しました。軽い気持ちで参加したのですが、参加して本当良かったです。まずインストラクターの御夫婦が本当優しく丁寧でシュノーケリングの経験はあったものの久しぶりだったので説明が日本語だったのが助かりました。英語に自信がない方は是非！！またシュノーケリングの間も常に一緒にいて導いてくれるのでお子様でも楽しめると思います。ツアーは月水木金しか参加が出来ませんが機会があれば是非参加して欲しいツアーです。ツアーは水着着用以外、すべて準備してくれます、またホテルまで送迎がついています。シュノーケリングに自信がない方、泳げない方でも大丈夫です！！ウミガメに遭遇出来なかったのが残念でしたが（私は午後にシュノーケリングしたのですが、午前はウミガメはいたとのこと）これは運なので・・・そのかわり、魚が一杯いて一時間近く泳いだのですが飽きなかったです。たまに疲れますが、疲れた方は先に浜辺に帰って休みながら昼寝も出来ます。シュノーケリングの後はお菓子を食べながら、少しゆっくりします。それもとても良かったです！是非参加してみてください！！私もまたハワイに来たらウミガメに会える様、再チャレンジしたいと思います。インストラクターの御夫婦には本当感謝しております。

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＞

The ocean and the scenery were amazing. 海も景色もサイコーでした

Reviewed by: ととちゃん

On my first trip to Hawaii, I decided to join a tour because it was difficult to travel far on my own. Even though the hotel I stayed at was quite local, they came to pick me up at the front desk. Both Chieko, who came to pick me up, and Dan, the guide, were very kind. Dan speaks fluent Japanese, so I think even those who don't understand English can participate with peace of mind. During the round trip, they shared various recommendations for delicious restaurants and information about the towns we passed through. They also provided information about the places we planned to visit the next day, which was very helpful.

After arriving at Hanauma Bay, we matched our fins and masks. They had a lot of sizes available, so I could use one that fit me well. They also took care of our valuables, and each person was lent a mat. The scenery at Hanauma Bay was stunning, and I was already moved before even entering the water. The underwater view was also very beautiful. A friend who joined me was snorkeling for the first time, but the guide was always there to support us, so we were able to enjoy it. We swam quite a bit while searching for sea turtles, and my friend was a bit tired, but was very impressed when they finally saw a sea turtle. After coming out of the water, there was even a service with snacks and water. It was truly fun. We were picked up at noon and could return by evening, so there was time for dinner and shopping afterward, making it a great option for those with a short stay.

There are many pigeons on the sandy beach of Hanauma Bay, but be careful! If you feed even one snack, they will gather around and perch on your arms, leaving you scratched up!

初めてのハワイ旅行で、個人で遠くまでの移動が大変だったので参加して見ました。泊まっていたホテルが、かなりローカルホテルだったのにホテルのフロントまで迎えにきてもらえました。迎えに来てくれたちえこさんも、ガイドのダンさんもとても親切でした。ダンさんは、日本語ペラペラなので、英語が解らない人でも安心して参加できると思います。送迎の往復では、美味しいオススメのお店や通る町などについて色々教えて頂けました。翌日に訪れる予定の場所の情報なども教えて頂けました。とても役にたちました。ハナウマ湾に到着後にフィンやマスクを合わせます。サイズも沢山持ってきてくれているので自分にあったものを使えました。貴重品なども預かって貰えるし、一人に一つゴザを貸して貰えます。ハナウマ湾は、とにかく景色が綺麗で海に入る前から感動しっぱなしでした。海の中もとても綺麗でした。一緒に参加した友人が、シュノーケル初めてでしたが、ずっとガイドさんがフォローしてくれていたので、楽しめることが出来ました。ウミガメを探すのに結構泳ぎ、友人は少し疲れてましたが、初めて見たウミガメにとても感動していました。海からあがるとお菓子とお水のサービスまでありました。本当に楽しかったです。お昼にピックアップで夕方には帰って来れるので、帰ってからディナーや買い物に行く時間もあるので、短い滞在のかたにもオススメです。
ハナウマ湾の砂浜には沢山鳩がいますが、お菓子を一つでもあげてしまうと沢山集まってきて腕などにとまり傷だらけになるのでご注意！

カイルアビーチ送迎シャトルサービス　嬉しい5時間滞在！ビーチグッズなど各種レンタル付き＜日本語スタッフ／ランチ付＞

I recommend it for those who want to enjoy a bit of local sightseeing! ちょっとローカルな観光を楽しみたい方にもお勧め！

Reviewed by: 銀ちゃん

There were quite a few participants, so since the car was a bit cramped, they kindly suggested, "How about the front seat?" and I was able to sit in the front without hesitation. The organizer and driver had worked in Japan, so they guided us to the location in simple English and Japanese. The staff also responded in easy-to-understand English, and everyone was very kind, so I think even those who can't speak any English can participate with peace of mind.

The beach had a powdery sand feel, which was very pleasant, and it really made me feel like I was in Hawaii. However, as a snorkeling spot, it might be a bit lacking. In the afternoon, I rented a bicycle and explored Kailua Town. I went into supermarkets and used bookstores, allowing me to experience Hawaiian culture in ways not found in guidebooks. On the way back, they also stopped at a scenic spot for us to take photos.

While there wasn't anything particularly thrilling, it was a plan that allowed for a leisurely swim at the beach, strolling around town, and enjoying a relaxed drive along the way. I think adding such a plan in between more exciting tours can provide a nice balance.

結構な参加者さんがいたので、車が少し狭かった為、「助手席にどう？」と声をかけてくれたので、遠慮なく助手席に乗せてもらいました。主催者兼運転手さんは日本で仕事をしていたこともあり、簡単な英語と日本語でガイドをしながら現地まで連れていってくれました。スタッフの方も解りやすい英語で答えてくれたり、とても親切な方ばかりですので、全く英語が話せないという方も安心して参加できると思います。ビーチの方は、パウダーサンドみたいな感じでとても気持ちよく、ハワイに来たなーという気分を十分に味わえますが、シュノーケリングスポットとしては、ちょっと物足りないかなと。午後は自転車をレンタルしてカイルアタウンを散策しました。スーパーとか古本屋さんにも入って、ハワイの生活文化に触れられたりと、ガイドブックにはない楽しみ方も出来ます。また、帰りの道中にも絶景スポットで車を停めてくれて、写真を撮ったりしました。特に「これ、スゲーー！」ということはなく、あくまでのんびりビーチで泳いだり、プラプラ街を散策したり、道中のんびりドライブを楽しむことが出来るプランですが、刺激的なツアーの合間にこういうプランを入れると、良いエッセンスになると思います。

After lunch, there was free time, and during that time, sea turtles came really close to us!

I guess they are used to the staff, as they swam around the boat in circles, allowing us to take great photos!

It was a tour I would love to join again next time!

Revenge from a year and a half ago!? 一年半前のリベンジ！？

Reviewed by: junko

A year and a half ago, I intended to sign up for Sandbar but mistakenly went on a tour to Heaven's Sea Kailua. I confused angels with heaven, didn't read carefully, and jumped at the chance because the price was cheap (of course). I didn't realize my mistake until the day of the tour, when I overheard a conversation between other guests and the guide in the car: "Wait!!! You're not taking us to Sandbar???" I couldn't say anything at that point... So, finally being able to come to Sandbar was quite emotional for me. It lived up to my expectations, and I truly enjoyed it. Both Angel's Sea (Sandbar) and Heaven's Sea (Kailua) have become wonderful memories.

一年半前、サンドバーに申込むつもりが間違えて天国の海カイルア観光に行ってしまいました。天使と天国を見間違え、よく読まずしかも料金がやすかった（当たり前）で飛びついたのです。そのまま間違いに気づかず、当日お迎えの車の中で他のお客さんとガイドさんとの会話で「え！！！サンドバーへ連れて行ってもらえるんじゃないの？？？」と・・今更口には出せず・・・。と、言うこともあり、サンドバーにやっと来れた。と感慨もひとしおでした。期待通りで本当に満喫できました。天使の海（サンドバー）も天国の海（カイルア）も良い思い出となってます。

This was my second trip to Hawaii with my friend. We were looking for activities to enjoy nature, and we came across this tour. Since it included hotel pickup, the meeting went smoothly. I thought it was considerate that they left a message on the hotel voicemail regarding time changes (although we didn't know how to check the voicemail and ended up waiting, haha).

Also, since the activity started in the afternoon, we were able to enjoy a leisurely breakfast before participating. It was my first time at Hanauma Bay, and I was amazed at how well the natural environment is preserved, and the sea was truly beautiful! We were fortunate with the weather, and the scenery was fantastic.

Our guides, Dan and Chieko, were very kind and provided excellent instruction, following us closely even in the water. At the beach in Hanauma Bay, we encountered mongooses and crabs! Underwater, there were schools of fish, as well as colorful fish, and the most impressive sight was the sea turtles. We were able to get very close to a sea turtle swimming gracefully. (Note: Touching sea turtles is prohibited in Hawaii.)

They provided snorkeling sets and mats for our belongings, and after the activity, there were drinks and snacks available. You can also leave a few valuables with them. They upload the photos taken underwater to Facebook, so you can download them.

It was so much fun that I will definitely participate again! Next time, I would love to try diving as well!

ハナウマ湾のビーチではマングースやカニに出会えます‼︎海の中では魚の群れはもちろん、色とりどりの魚たち、そして一番感動したのはウミガメ。優雅に泳ぐウミガメのすぐそばまで近づくことが出来ました。(注:ハワイではウミガメに触れることは禁止されています)
シュノーケルセット、荷物置き用のゴザを貸してもらえますし、終了後には飲み物とお菓子のサービスもありました。貴重品も少しなら預けることができます。
海の中で撮った写真をFacebookにアップしてくれるので、ダウンロードできます。
とっても楽しかったのでまた絶対参加しまーす！
今度は是非ダイビングもしてみたいです☆

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 was fun! 楽しかったです！

Reviewed by: ひちゃむ

It was my first experience at the sandbar. The staff on the boat were all very cheerful and kind, and I was able to have a great time. Unfortunately, I couldn't see the sandy beach, but I was very satisfied to see the clear, beautiful sea, sea turtles, and manta rays. The hamburgers grilled by the captain were also delicious. Since the sun is quite strong, those who don't want to get sunburned should make sure to apply sunscreen properly!

初めてのサンドバー体験でした。
船のスタッフさんがとても明るく親切な方たちばかりで、楽しい時間を過ごせることができました。
残念ながら砂浜を見ることは出来ませんでしたが、透き通ったきれいな海とウミガメ、マンタを見ることができて大満足です。
キャプテンが焼いてくれたハンバーガーもおいしかったです。
かなり日差しが強いので、日に焼けたくない方は日焼け止めをしっかりしたほうがいいです！

It was different from what I expected. 思ってたのと違う～

Reviewed by: coco

I wanted to visit Sandbar after seeing it introduced by Higashi MAX on the TV program "Another Sky." What I saw on TV was truly a place surrounded by the ocean, but on this tour, we were brought to a spot close to the land. Huh? It was just a shallow area. I’m not sure if it was just beautifully portrayed on TV or if this tour was a letdown...

Since I participated in the afternoon, the water came up to about my chest. It didn't feel like a sandbar at all. The itinerary included a sea turtle spot, but there was no guidance about it, and when the boat got a bit noisy, it was just because a sea turtle was there. Plus, I could only see it for a brief moment...

We also went snorkeling, but honestly, the sea and the fish were not beautiful at all!!! It was no different from Waikiki Beach.

I participated in the recommended plan with a barbecue lunch, but I would recommend the early morning plan with a snack breakfast instead. The snorkeling felt like it was just added on to raise the price, and I felt like I lost out.

Since the sunburn was intense, I highly recommend taking thorough precautions against it.

ＴＶ番組アナザースカイで東ＭＡＸがサンドバーを紹介していてどうしてきたかったサンドバー。
ＴＶで見たのは本当に全面海、という場所でしたが
このツアーで連れてこられるのはふつうに陸地も近くです。あれれ？ただの浅瀬じゃん。
ＴＶが綺麗に映していただけなのか、このツアーがはずれだったのか・・・わかりませんが。

お昼に参加なので胸くらいまで水がきてました。サンドって感じはしなかったなぁ。
日程にウミガメスポットが含まれていますが、そのような案内はなく、船の中がざわついたなと思ったらウミガメがいたという感じです。
しかもほんの一瞬しかみれませんでした。。

シュノーケリングにも行きましたが、正直ぜんぜん海も魚も綺麗じゃないです！！！
ワイキキビーチと変わらないですよ～。

おすすめプラン・バーベキューランチ付きに参加しましたが、早朝プラン・スナック朝食付きをおすすめします。
シュノーケリングは本当に無理やり付けて値上げした感があって損したきぶんです。

日焼けがはんぱないので念入りに対策をおすすめします。

I was picked up around 8:30 AM. Unfortunately, we couldn't land at the sandbar because it was close to high tide, but we walked about 100 meters, and the staff took many commemorative photos for us. Since most of the participants were Japanese, I felt quite at ease. The coral was very beautiful, and snorkeling, where we also got to see sea turtles, was a lot of fun! (*^^*)

朝8：30ごろピックアップしていただきました。サンドバーは満潮に近い時間だったため、残念ながら上陸はできませんでしたが100メートルほど歩いて行き、スタッフの方が記念写真を沢山撮って下さいました。殆どの参加者が日本人だったため、安心感がかなりありました。また珊瑚がとても美しく、ウミガメにも会えたシュノーケルはとっても楽しかったです(*^^*)

The shuttle service was very loose with timing. The content was wonderful, and the instructors, staff, and food were all very good. It's a shame that they didn't say anything about the delays in the shuttle service.

Hawaii Nautical 2-Hour Waikiki Turtle Snorkel Sail - Morning & Afternoon Tours [Apr-Nov]

Amazing Adventure!!

Reviewed by: Kellie

Jake, Josh, and Barry took us on a fabulous voyage! They explained what the activity would entail and gave some safety rules.

They they took us put to turtle Bay and as we were making our way to where we were going to anchor the boat, we saw our first Turtle.

We got all geared up and went into the water. Someone on the trip wasn't a sting swimmer and jake provided adsistance so he wouldn't miss out on anything.

We saw several turtles and lots of beautiful fish!

We had a great lunch and a few great cocktails.

It was one of my best experiences while in Hawaii!

Hawaii Nautical 2-Hour Waikiki Turtle Snorkel Sail - Morning & Afternoon Tours [Apr-Nov]

Unforgettable Experience Not to be Missed!

Reviewed by: E & J from San Diego

After visiting Honolulu many times before, my husband and I wanted to do something fun and unique to celebrate the beauty of Honolulu...beyond the glitzy stores and swanky restaurants. Well, we couldn't be happier with our choice to book a sun-filled excursion on the Honi Olani. The catamaran sail turned out to be fantastic, thanks to the experienced, well-trained Captain and crew. From the confirmation email, hotel pickup and transport to the marina, all of the details worked out as promised. As promised, we swam right next to sea turtles and other fish and truly enjoyed the personal attention and guidance while snorkeling in the water. We swam for over an hour, then sailed along the gorgeous shores of the island. The lunch provided was tasty, as were the cocktails and drinks included in the tour. The friendly crew made the entire tour seem effortless, although we know they were all hard at work serving us every step of the way. Honestly, we felt pampered. This trip definitely is recommended for everyone, including those families with young children who are confident with swimming in the ocean. Flotation vests, high-quality fins and snorkels are provided, and the kids who were on our tour were watched over very carefully and taught the basics of snorkeling. There is something so peaceful about the turtles who live so close to the hustle and bustle of downtown Honolulu. Thank you for a wonderful experience.

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＞

First snorkeling experience. はじめてのシュノーケリング

Reviewed by: ゆうゆ

We participated as a family of three, including my spouse and one elementary school child. It was everyone's first experience with snorkeling, and we struggled a bit with water getting into our noses and having trouble with our breathing techniques. However, thanks to the guide's kind explanations, we were able to enjoy the experience. Personally, I was hoping to see a sea turtle, but unfortunately, that didn't happen. Still, we were able to encounter a large school of fish, which was great. Thank you very much.

　夫婦と小学生１名の３人で参加しました。家族みなシュノーケルは初体験で、鼻に水が入ってしまったり、呼吸の仕方がうまくできなかったりしたため、少々手間取ってしまった感じでした。
　しかし、ガイドさんの親切な説明のおかげで、楽しく参加することができました。
　個人的には、ウミガメに会えるのを期待しておりましたが、見ることはかなわず残念でした。
　でも、魚の大群に会うことができたので、よかったです。
　ありがとうございました。

You can enjoy the sea in Hawaii with peace of mind. ハワイの海を安心して遊べる

Reviewed by: マナハハ

I joined the snorkeling tour because I wanted to have some fun. It had been about 10 years since I last went, so I had forgotten some of the techniques, but they kindly taught me. They helped me find fish spots and sea turtles, which I think would be quite difficult without guidance.

I only had experience snorkeling in the waters of Okinawa, which are quite shallow, allowing for a relaxed snorkeling experience. However, the waters in Hawaii are relatively deep, so I believe it's more reassuring for beginners to have a guide with them.

If I could suggest something, it would be nice to have breaks instead of swimming continuously, as that would allow for a bit more relaxation. Also, I was paired up with a buddy (holding hands) and we swam together the whole time, which can be quite tiring. I hope they can improve on that.

I also think it's great that the guide uploads photos taken during the tour to Facebook.

　シュノーケリングで楽しみたいなと思って参加しました。10年ぶりぐらいだったので、要領を忘れてましたが、親切に教えていただけました。魚スポットやウミガメを見つけてくれたりと、誘導がないとなかなか難しいと思います。
　自分は沖縄の海でのシュノーケリングしか体験が無かったのですが、沖縄はかなり遠浅なので、のんびりとシュノーケリングができますが、ハワイの海はそこそこ深いので、初心者の方は、ガイドさんがついていてくれた方が安心して楽しめると思います。
　欲を言えば、ずっと泳ぎっぱなしではなくて、途中で休憩を入れてくれると、もう少しリラックスして楽しめたかなあ～？それから、バディを組んで（手をつないで）2人組でずっと泳いでいたのですが、これも、結構、疲れます。そこは、改善して欲しいかな。
ガイドさんがフェイスブックに撮った写真をアップしてくれるサービスも◎と思います。
