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>

A reliable older sister in Japanese. 日本語で頼れるお姉さん

Reviewed by: りんうる

There were three staff members who were fluent in Japanese, so I had no trouble at all, and they were even able to engage in playful banter! I was very satisfied to see sea turtles while snorkeling both last year and this year from the boat! It's better to take two pool towels from the hotel so you won't be cold on the bus ride back. When planning in Japan, it's best to prioritize booking for low tide at the sandbar. I will keep going until I can experience low tide someday!! Book at the heavenly sea! Be careful, as you can't get too close if the names are similar.

日本語の上手なスタッフが3名もいたので何も困らない上に、ノリツッコミまでできる強者スタッフ!
去年も今年も船の中からもシュノーケルしてても海亀が見れて大満足!ホテルのプールタオルは2枚持って行った方が帰りのバスで寒くなくて良い。日本で予定を立てる時にサンドバーの干潮を優先して予約した方が良い。いつか干潮に出会えるまで行き続ける!!天国の海で予約!似てる名前だと近くまで行けないから注意してね。

ウミガメシュノーケリング モアナ号 広々快適な大型カタマラン船でリラックス!アルコール含むドリンク購入可 貸切プランあり<3時間/英語/ケワロ湾発>

Encounter with a sea turtle ウミガメとの遭遇

Reviewed by: ゆのき

【Overview】
Since it was an English tour, I was the only Japanese participant, but there were no difficult explanations, and I could understand to some extent through gestures. They brought water without me having to ask, and they were considerate since I was alone. There were many families from various countries, so I think families can participate without feeling too pressured.

【Sea Turtles】
There were many tour boats around, so it was necessary to keep an eye on my tour instructor. It was possible to get out early if I got tired. It felt like a lot of people crowded around the spots where the sea turtles were, but it was easy to confirm where the turtles were since you could see where the people were.

The sea turtles floated and sank freely, and I could watch them. However, touching them is prohibited, and the instructor repeatedly reminded us of this, so as long as we followed that rule, it was a comfortable tour.

【概要】
英語ツアーなので日本人は自分1人でしたが、難しい解説はなく、身振り手振りである程度理解できます。お水も言わずとも持ってきてくれたり、1人なので気を遣ってくださいました。いろんな国からの家族連れが多かったので、家族で参加するならあまり気負わずに参加出来ると思います。

【ウミガメ】
周りにもたくさんのツアーの船が多く、自分のツアーのインストラクターさんを見失わないようにする必要はあります。疲れて途中で上がるのは可能でした。
ウミガメがいるスポットに大勢押しかけて見る感じでしたが、人がいる所がウミガメのいる所と分かるので、確認はしやすいです。

ウミガメは自由に浮いたり沈んだりして、それを眺めたりできました。ただし、触るのは禁止なのでインストラクターさんが繰り返し伝えてくれるので、それさえ守れば快適なツアーです。

Disappointed .

Reviewed by: Margarita R.

Disappointed that we were Not at the real sand bar. We were to far away from it and the water level were too high to call it a sandbar. We were expecting to be able to stand at the sand bar.
The lunch provided was a disappointment.
What I really like was the staff, especially the guys helping with the kayaks and boat.

ハナウマ湾シャトルサービス シュノーケリングセットレンタル付き<英語ドライバー>

I'm glad I went to Hanauma Bay! ハナウマ湾行ってよかったです!

Reviewed by: 虎の虎

Hanauma Bay can be accessed by rental car or trolley, but there is a limit on the number of people allowed in the bay (reservations are required), so for those who prefer convenience, booking through Veltra is a good option. While there were fewer corals compared to the islands of Okinawa, since I went in the morning, I was pleasantly surprised by the variety of fish and the number of larger fish. Although it was an early morning tour, there were initially few people (the seawater was a bit cold at first), and the morning-only tour was more than enough to enjoy.

I stayed at the Hilton Hawaiian Village, and the meeting point was at the valet area (hotel entrance) of the neighboring Ilikai Hotel, which was accommodating in English, and there were no issues at all (there was hardly any conversation). By the way, the people I went with were from Germany, Brazil, and Asia. An English speaker among us handled the communication. Inside Hanauma Bay, we had free time. There were lockers available for valuables, but we didn't use them (we took turns going into the water as a family). You might want to bring drinks (and maybe some light snacks). Be aware that there are restrictions on the types of sunscreen you can use. They provided snorkeling gear, including fins, but given the current situation, we only brought our own snorkels. We thoroughly enjoyed our time until the return meeting time, and they drove us back to the morning meeting point. After a short break in the afternoon, we went shopping. I'm glad I visited Hanauma Bay for the first time!

ハナウマ湾はレンタカーやトローリーでも行けますが、湾に入るには人数制限(予約)があるので、色々と面倒な人はベルトラ予約が気楽です。沖縄の島々よりはサンゴは少なかったですが、AMにいったこともあり色々な魚の群衆や大きい魚が思ったより沢山いました。朝早いツアーでしたが、逆に人も最初は少なく(少々海水が最初冷たかった)、AMのみのツアーで十分楽しめました。
ヒルトンビーチリゾートに宿泊していましたが、集合場所はとなりのホテルのイリカイホテルのバレットエリア(ホテルの入口)で、英語対応でしたが全く問題ありませんでした(ほぼ会話する事がない)。因みに一緒に行った人たちはドイツ、ブラジル、アジアの人。逆に英語のわかる人が代表で対応してくれました。ハナウマ湾の中は自由行動。貴重品用のロッカーありとのことでしたが使用しませんでした(家族の順番で海に入って対応)。飲み物は必要かも(軽食程度も)。日焼け止めは種類に規制があるのでご注意を。シュノーケルは足ひれ含めて貸してくれましたが、このご時世我々はシュノーケルのみ持参しました。帰りの集合時間まで十分に堪能して、朝の集合場所まで車で送ってくれました。午後は少し休憩後にショッピングなどに。初めてだったのでハナウマ湾行ってよかったです!

Hanauma Bay Snorkel Tour with Expert Guide & Waikiki Transportation

Easily the best snorkeling tour in Oahu

Reviewed by: Cory W

This is our 2nd time to vacation in Oahu and visited Hanauma both times. Our 2nd trip we decided to book an organized tour because our first experience wasn't too great. This tour was absolutely incredible! Can't say enough positive things about it but here we go:

1) The guide showed up to our hotel early which is so refreshing
2) He was super knowledgeable, kind and enjoyable to be around
3) Before the snorkeling tour, he was amazing with sharing information about how to do it and what to expect
4) They had the nicest and softest mask and fins equipment I've ever received on a snorkeling tour
5) The hour long tour was amazing and we saw tons of fish and even a turtle
6) He provided snacks and water afterwards
7) He patiently got us back to our hotel and just truly blew us away.

Very highly recommended!

The snorkeling in the early morning had high water clarity and was very good. A seal also appeared and was very cute. By the time we were leaving, the sand was stirred up and it was a bit murky, so it was great to go in the morning.

Snorkeling equipment was included in the rental, but there was a mishap where the driver forgot to hand it to us. The entrance fee is paid collectively by the representative, so only cash is accepted. Please be aware of this.

朝一番でのシュノーケルで水の透明度が高くとても良かったです。アザラシも現れてとても可愛いかったです。

Reviewed by: ノンノン

Last year, I participated in a snorkeling tour at Hanauma Bay. It was my first time wearing a wetsuit, which was quite challenging, and the waves were high that day, so it wasn't the underwater experience I had hoped for. This time, I was able to snorkel while wearing a life jacket, and the staff's attentiveness was excellent, allowing me to enjoy myself to the fullest. I was also able to encounter sea turtles, which made me very satisfied. I definitely want to participate again next year. Thank you very much.

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>

Amazing! I saw a lot of fish and turtles! 最高!たくさんの魚と亀が観られました!

Reviewed by: あんこまま

I participated with my 9-year-old child. Surprisingly, the water in the morning was quite cold, and it was advised to wear a wetsuit, which we rented, and that was accurate! We also rented prescription masks, and both my child, who has poor eyesight, and I were able to enjoy watching cute fish (we even saw schools of fish!) and turtles without feeling cold.

I suddenly became scared of the ocean after not snorkeling for a while and couldn't swim at first, but the instructor, Chieko, kindly held my hand and helped me swim. Another instructor, Dan, also gave gentle advice! As a professional, he took us around to spots where we could see fish. Dan also provided various guidance in Japanese during the car transfer.

In the end, it cost quite a bit, but it was definitely worth the money! We made wonderful memories of Hawaii! Thank you very much!

9歳の子供と2人で参加しました。
意外と朝の海の水は冷たく、ウェットスーツを着たほうが良いとのアドバイスで借りましたが、これが正確でした!
度付きマスクも借りて、目の悪い子供共々、寒さを感じることなく、かわいい魚(魚の群れも観られました!)と亀を観ることができました。
私は久しぶりのシュノーケリングに、急に海が怖くなり最初は泳げなかったのですが、インストラクターのチエコさんが優しく手を引いてくれ、泳ぐことができました。
同じくインストラクターのダンも優しくアドバイス!プロならでは!で、魚が観られるスポットを廻ってくれました。
ダンはクルマの送迎でも日本語で色々と案内してくれました。

Kaneohe Sandbar Tour with Snorkel, Kayak, SUP & Live Hawaiian Music - Kaneohe Bay Ocean Sports

Great crew for exploring this natural, beautiful sandbar!

Reviewed by: Alex

The sandbar itself is an awesome natural phenomenon, and having a top-notch crew that supports you during your visit is a great benefit! Their boat cruise out to the sandbar provides you with water and a snack, as well as offers a place out of the sun to change or use the restrooms which would otherwise be completely unavailable without them. PLUS, they provide so much equipment to snorkel, kayak, play volleyball, and swim with lifejackets that is all included in the initial price. Definitely recommend the banana boat or tube ride though, as the thrill of being pulled behind a speed boat across this paradise is beautiful and quite fun! Overall, excellent experience that allows you to enjoy a natural phenomenon I've never experienced before.

I enjoyed Hawaii. ハワイを楽しみました。

Reviewed by: ジジババ

Since I came to Hawaii, I wanted to fully enjoy the beautiful ocean, and I had a great time. We boarded a medium-sized boat that could hold about 50 people and set off for the sandbar, which took about 30 minutes. Along the way, we were able to see sea turtles and rays, but not as many as I had hoped. I wonder if it was due to the season?

Once we arrived at the sandbar, we were quickly provided with snorkeling gear and enjoyed swimming while looking into the water from the boat, where there was a lookout. Below us were mostly coral reefs, and we could see various colorful fish swimming among them. We spent over an hour in the water, and when we returned to the boat, we were able to eat a hamburger made with grilled meat from a barbecue. I was so hungry that I wanted to eat another one. Drinks were unlimited.

We rented a car to visit Hanauma as a family instead of going on a tour, but since the sandbar was part of a tour, we had pick-up and drop-off from the hotel, and lunch was included. The guide kindly explained everything, so we were able to enjoy it quite a bit.

Since it was a family trip with six people, my grandchildren, who are in middle and high school, were much happier than us older folks. Thank you very much!

This day will definitely remain in the memory of my children and me for the rest of my life. The trip was wonderful thanks to the activities that were prepared by the ship's crew and of course the unusually beautiful nature around. Huge praise also goes to the crew, who were willing to answer all our questions and very helpful with the activities. Personally, I would like to thank Tyson, who was extremely helpful.

I participated with my 7-year-old child. I was worried about seasickness, but the boat didn't sway much, and since it was only about a 15-minute ride, there was no problem at all.

The sandbar had knee-deep seawater, which was disappointing, but the snorkeling was the best! We enjoyed it even more than Hanauma. It was great to see many sea turtles, from large ones to small baby turtles. We all talked about how we wish we had more time for snorkeling...

7歳の子供を連れて参加しました。船酔いを心配しましたが、船が大きく揺れる事もなく、また片道15分ほどであったので全く問題ありませんでした。

It's better not to expect shallow waters.

There were plenty of activities, so it was fun. The staff provided explanations in Japanese, live performances, and meals, which made the experience very fulfilling.

The seating is assigned, and you leave your belongings in that space when going to the sea. In case of theft, there are surveillance cameras. If you're concerned, it's better to secure your belongings with a lock.

One slight disappointment was that I rode the banana boat with my spouse, and since we were together, we couldn't take a photo. When I asked if we could at least get a photo at the moment we boarded, they declined. I thought it would have been better not to do it if we couldn't capture the memory.

I forgot my sunglasses on the return bus, and when I contacted the support center, they delivered them to my hotel. They also provided assistance in Japanese.

浅瀬になることを期待しないほうがいいです。

アクティブティが沢山あったので楽しかったです。
スタッフの方も日本語の説明や、生の演奏、食事もあったのでとても充実はしました。

席は決まっていて、荷物はそのスペースに置いて海に行きます。
万が一、盗まれた場合は監視カメラがあるそうです。不安な方は荷物に鍵を付けた方がいいです。

少し残念なのが、バナナボートに乗ったんですが。夫婦で乗ってしまったら撮れないので、乗る瞬間だけでも、写真頼めないですかと言ったら、断られました。写真に残らないなら、やらなければ良かったと思いました。

帰りのバスにサングラスを忘れて、サポートセンターに問い合わせたら、ホテルまで届けにきてくれました。こちらも日本語対応ありました。

Thank you very much for participating in the tour. We sincerely apologize for not meeting your expectations with the banana boat photos. The tide levels change daily, and there is a link on our site where you can check the tide information, so please aim to join us on a day with shallow waters next time. We look forward to seeing you! From all the KBOS staff.

この度はツアーへご参加いただき誠にありがとうございました。バナナボートのお写真はご期待にお応えできなく大変申し訳ありませんでした。潮位につきましては日々変わり、サイトに潮の満ち引き情報が確認できるリンクがありますので次回は是非浅瀬の日を狙って参加してみてください。お待ちしております! KBOS スタッフ一同

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>

It was comfortable without any crowds! 混雑もなく、快適でした!

Reviewed by: 銀猫

I participated in a snorkeling tour. It started with being picked up at the hotel, and everything went smoothly, allowing me to enjoy snorkeling at Hanauma Bay comfortably.

There were about 10 participants, and having two guides who spoke Japanese made me feel at ease.

The view at Hanauma Bay was amazing. Compared to the coral reefs in Japan (like Okinawa), the fish swimming there were larger and more dynamic.

シュノーケリングのツアーに参加しました。
ホテルへお迎えに来ていただいたところから始まって、
すべて順調で、快適にハナウマ湾のシュノーケリングを楽しむことができました。

参加者は10人ぐらいで、日本語のできるガイドさんが2名ついてくださったので安心でした。

ハナウマ湾は眺めが最高でした。
日本の珊瑚礁(沖縄とか)と比べて泳いでる魚が大きくてダイナミックでした。

  • 海の青が本当にきれいでした!

Kaneohe Sandbar Tour with Snorkel, Kayak, SUP & Live Hawaiian Music - Kaneohe Bay Ocean Sports

Disappointed!

Reviewed by: Daniela

very disappointed! $140 is way too much. We also paid extra $20 for lunch - and only got a sandwich with 2 pieces of pineapple - I mean this is a SNACK not a Lunch actually..

We were also only allowed to kayak in a certain tiny room. So we basically drove in circles and could not explor the beautiful sandbar - wow. So It would be cheaper if we had rent the kayak by our own!!

Too expensive - would rather pay the half of the price or less, but definitely not more!

サンドバー シュノーケリングクルーズ バナナボートなど選べるプラン 海に浮かぶラウンジ&船上ライブミュージック アルコール購入可 <午前・午後/日本語クルー>

The banana boat was fun. バナナボードは楽しかった

Reviewed by: りんご

It was really cold. I couldn't stay in the sea for even five minutes. The wind was strong, and the weather wasn't good.
I heard from relatives in Kaneohe that summer weather has a cycle, and during our time, there were just a few days with a lot of wind, clouds, and showers.
It seems that the sandbar is not often visible; we couldn't see it at all this time. The water was up to my chest, and the waves were strong. When I got on the free kayak, I was swept away immediately, and it was scary.
If possible, I would like to make a reservation while checking the weather on-site.
The crew members were very kind and warm. My mother had a hard time with seasickness, but we are grateful for their heartfelt support.

とにかく寒かった。寒くて5分も海にいられない。風も強い。天候よくなかった。
カネオヘ在の親戚に、夏の天気はサイクルがあって私達の時はちょうど風があり曇とシャワーが多い数日間だったようです。。。
サンドバー、なかなかみられないようです、
この時は全く見られなかった。海水が胸まであり波も強く、無料のカヤックに乗ったら、すぐに流され、怖かったです。
できるなら、現地で天気見ながら申し込みしたい。
船の方々はとても親切で暖かいです。母が酔い大変でしたが、心温まる対応していただき感謝しております。

Thank you very much for participating in the tour. The weather in Hawaii can be unpredictable; there are warm days, but unfortunately, when the weather turns, it can get quite cold. On the day of your tour, it seems the water level was high and the winds were strong, making for unfortunate weather, and we are very sorry about that. We hope that next time you can enjoy a different beautiful sandbar on a sunny day. Thank you for sharing your experience with us.

Best regards,
The KBOS Staff

この度はツアーにご参加頂き誠にありがとうございました。ハワイの天気は変わりやすく暖かい日もあれば、残念ながら天気が崩れると寒いこともあります。ツアーご参加当日は水位も高く風も強くあいにくお天気だった様で大変残念に思っております。次回は是非晴れた日のまた違った美しいサンドバーを楽しんで頂けるといいなと思っております。この度はご自身の体験をシェアして頂きありがとうございました。 KBOS スタッフ一同

Kaneohe Sandbar Tour with Snorkel, Kayak, SUP & Live Hawaiian Music - Kaneohe Bay Ocean Sports

Kayak and paddle boarding without the crowds!

Reviewed by: Honolulu Fan

Get on a large boat with about 30 to 40 people to enjoy 20 minutes of live music as it takes us to our destination near the sandbar, then get off the boat and swim over to 4 possible activities:
(1) snorkeling
(2) kayaking
(3) paddle boarding
(4) sunbathing on a floating platform

Lunch is a turkey/cheese croissant sandwich with chips and a drink. I had great fun doing both kayaking and paddle boarding but I didn't do snorkeling. Word of advice - swim fast to either paddle board or kayak otherwise you'll have to wait about an hour for one to be available (first come first serve). Ultimately, everyone had a chance to do all activities but whichever one you are most looking forward to doing - hit it first! NOTE: water is deep in most places so even though you are wearing a lifevest, your feet will not touch the ground - it's not dangerous as there's no heavy surf but I don't want non swimmers to be surprised or panic.
