All Reviews for Snorkeling Cruises & Tours

The sea was beautiful, and I saw a lot of fish. It was shallow, so the distance to the coral was close. There are various activities included, so you can really enjoy yourself.

海も綺麗でお魚が沢山みれました。
浅いので珊瑚との距離が近かったです。
アクティビティが色々ついているのでしっかり楽しめます

The sea was crystal clear and there were lots of fish!
I had a great time with SUP and canoeing.
It was nice to have snacks and Hawaiian music as well.
The bumper tube ride was intense and really fun.

軽食やハワイアンミュージックもあってよかった

The staff was absolutely fantastic. It was the first tour of the new year, and the weather was perfect! The hamburgers were delicious, and it was a unique experience that you can't find elsewhere. I highly recommend it for those who are inexperienced.

スタッフが最高に楽しかったです。新年1回目のツアーだったらしく、天候も最高！ハンバーガーも美味しくて他では味わえない楽しみでした。
未経験の方は絶対オススメです。

We went snorkeling around the sandbar and enjoyed various marine activities in the shallow waters. It was safe and fun! We also got to see three sea turtles swimming, which made us truly feel the essence of Hawaii.

The staff were very kind, and there was even a Japanese staff member who was attentive throughout our visit.

Thank you to all the staff! I especially recommend this for families with children.

サンドバー周辺をシュノーケリングし、浅瀬では様々なマリンアクティビティ。安全で楽しく遊ぶことができました。また、ウミガメの泳ぐ姿(3頭)も見ることができ、ハワイを実感しました。
スタッフの方がとても親切。日本人スタッフの方もいて、終始、気を使っていただきました。
スタッフの皆さん、ありがとうございました！
子連れの方には特におすすめです。

Me and my partner had a great time. Staff was great and informative. My partner must learn to kayak bad work with me. A great team building excercise. I of course made no errors and had to correct the many errors of my partner . Thank you for a fun time.

LOVED kayaking in the ocean instead of chartering a boat/catamaran out to the sandbar. Spent most of our time on the largest, and should of rowed over to where a guide had nicely dropped a pin for us, but due to time stopped at a closer one, and still got to see A LOT of different fish, SO COOL! and sea life while snorkeling, but no turtles. Great snorkel gear, no fins, but didn't need them. A waterproof cell case is advisable, a hardcase one altho more expensive would of been better, as the water's current pushed against the soft plastic and turned off the video while shooting. Another tip, I'm glad I got water sandals that strapped on, to walk on the sandbar. The water was warm and so clear, and the view of the Koolau Mountains are majestic.

If you have any questions, give em' a call, Andy was so helpful and gracious.

Kamaaina Kayak and Snorkel Eco-Venture IS THE ONE TO BOOK not only is He'eia State Park right at the bay's edge, where the crew helps you launch right into the water. Renting is a bargain and not-for-profit, proceeds help to fund the park, which is managed by Kama'aina Kids, a local childcare org that serves as stewards to the park.

That’s probably one of my favorite things we have done in Oahu. Crew was awesome. Even if you don’t know how to snorkel they will make sure you are safe & get to enjoy snorkeling. We loved hanging out at the sandbar paddle boarding and playing ball. Saw plenty of fish and got to swim next to multiple turtles. Great experience!

Great trip and highly recommended. The crew and live music were great and the activities included (paddle board, kayak, snorkel, volleyball) kept me and my wife busy during our time at the sandbar. We also saw live coral and a ton of fish as well as an octopus hiding near the anchor. Definitely a tour anyone should consider if they haven't visited the sandbar before. Having the boat also allowed us to avoid the sun and stay hydrated after the activities, sometime we wouldn't have been able to do if we had kayaked over from the harbor on our own.

Would recommend this to anyone the crew is outstanding the water was amazing. Beer was ice cold!!

We participated as a couple in our 30s.
We were fortunate with the weather and were able to go to the sandbar under clear skies.

The sea was more beautiful than we imagined, and we were thrilled to encounter many sea turtles while snorkeling.

On our trip, there was a staff member who spoke Japanese, so it might be a good idea to inquire ahead of time since it may not be the case every time. However, I think those who are concerned about the language will feel reassured.

They properly checked the number of participants before setting out the boat, and there were plenty of snacks and drinks prepared. There were also various options for play equipment, making it a fulfilling and reassuring tour.

30代夫婦2人で参加しました。
天候にも恵まれて、晴天のなかサンドバーに行くことができました。

想像以上に美しい海でしたし、シュノーケリングではウミガメに沢山出会うことができて感動しました。

私たちの回はスタッフに日本語を喋れる方も同乗されていたので、毎回ではないかもしれないので問い合わせした方が良いかもしれませんが言語に不安がある方も安心ではないかと思います。

ちゃんと人数確認してから船をだしたり、お菓子や飲み物も沢山用意されていたり、遊ぶ道具も色々選択肢があり充実し、また安心できるツアーでした。

The tour was absolutely amazing, the experience was so fun. I suggested my family and friends to visit hawaii and book the Kaneohe sand bar!y boyfriend and I had so much fun and the staffs were so friendly and helpful and so patient with everyone! The bay was so beautiful and calm, the water so clear and clean, we felt super safe while being there. We definitely enjoyed the water activities that was included in the package, I will definitely return and re book with you guys. We had a blast!

The scenery was absolutely stunning. I never expected to find such a shallow and beautiful spot in the middle of the ocean. During snorkeling, I got to see turtles and fish. I participated in December, and although it was somewhat cold, it was an amazing experience.

とにかく景色が最高だった。海の真ん中にこんなに浅くて綺麗な場所があるなんて思ってもいませんでした。シュノーケリングは、亀にも魚にも会えました。12月の参加でしたが、そこそこ寒いものの、感動ものでした。

This is my second visit. A few years ago during my first visit, the weather wasn't great, but this time it was a beautifully sunny day! Several crew members spoke Japanese and were very considerate. Snorkeling in the beautiful sea and activities like stand-up paddleboarding became unforgettable memories. Snacks, drinks, and spam musubi were also provided, making it perfect to enjoy while satisfying our little hunger!

2度目の訪問です。
数年前の1度目は天気に恵まれなかったのですが、
今回は晴れたとても美しい日でした！
クルーの皆さんも日本語が話せる方が数人いて、何かと気を遣ってくださいました。
綺麗な海の真ん中でのシュノーケルや、SUPなどは一生の思い出になりました。
スナックや飲み物、スパムむすびなども準備されていて、小腹を満たしながら遊べて最高です！

Beautiful ocean and amazing environment. The performers were great in the tunes and songs they played as well as their positive atmosphere!! the activities available are plenty and so much fun!

Had a blast. The folks on board treated us so well and really gave everyone a good time.

I suck at swimming but our instructor Kyle made us feel safe and had me in good hands

The staff (captain and 2 mates and life guard) were exceptionally helpful. They explained everything, we’re very prompt and watchful. We saw the turtles at Turtle Canyon…AMAZING! I’m so sorry I don’t remember the crew’s names, but suffice it to say, they were excellent. Reviewed safety cautions and had refreshing beverages for the trip home.

We booked the all inclusive package and our salon team loved every min! The crew was fantastic and it was an unforgettable experience! Totally worth every penny!

Kaneohe ocean sports at the sandbar was amazing! We started with either glazed or chocolate donuts with lemonade. When we got to the sandbar they had a variety of activities including kayaking, stand up paddle boarding, volleyball and snorkeling. We loved the snorkeling! They took us to an area of the sandbar that was still shallow enough to stand but had plenty of coral to swim around and explore. Staff was friendly and constantly kept watch over the participants, making this a safe and enjoyable environment. Overall would definitely recommend especially for families

We loved our turtle snorkelling experience and the staff were very helpful and friendly! We only wish we had a bit more time in the water but overall a great trip!

It was so much fun for everyone and there was so many things to do! We had a blast and will definitely be back to do it again! The crew, captains and musicians were all awesome and made the excursion awesome! Thank you!!!

Staff were excellent and I would highly recommend that lunch excursion. We upgraded for the banana boat ride for our granddaughters when checking in. We were offered to ride in the boat so that we could get videos of the girls on the ride.
Water was shallow and bit difficult to snorkel.
Parking is at a premium and I had to wait in the lot until someone pulled out.

It was an early departure, but the weather was nice, and it was a fun experience unique to Hawaii. However, it might have been challenging for those who are not good at swimming. I also requested photos as an option, but it seems I wasn't captured well in them. It might have been better if there was a system to purchase after viewing. The tour itself was enjoyable. I used a lot of energy, so on the way back, I was completely exhausted and fell asleep on the bus.

朝早い出発でしたが天気も良く、ハワイならではの体験で楽しかったです。ただ、泳ぎが苦手な人には大変だったかもしれません。オプションで写真もお願いしましたが、あまり映ってなかったようです。見てから購入できるシステムだとよかったかもしれません。ツアー自体は楽しかったです。体力使ったので、帰りのバスの中では、まさにぐったり眠ってしまったようです。

I highly recommend visiting this place, incredibly beautiful views with emerald blue water. The service is perfect! Will definitely come back again.

We were blessed with great weather and had a great time. Our guide, Yuki-san, was happy and energetic, and we really enjoyed the experience at the sandbar. It was the first snorkeling experience for the children, and they seemed nervous, but they were able to try it even in places where they couldn't get their feet on, and they were able to see the fish with their own eyes! The hamburger we ate on board was also exceptional. We had a really valuable experience. thank you very much!

I participated with my spouse and friends. At first, I wondered if there would be anyone who spoke Japanese among the staff, but there was someone who spoke it fluently, which made me feel at ease to join! Since I can't swim in deep water, I thought I would skip the snorkeling, but with a life jacket on and the staff providing constant support, I was able to see sea turtles and fish safely! I was also happy that we had prescription underwater goggles available, so everyone could participate! After snorkeling, we were able to do SUP, and it was truly a satisfying tour! Among all the meals during this trip to Hawaii, the spam musubi we had on the boat was the most delicious! The hot drinks and snacks were refreshing for our tired bodies after being in the sea! Thank you so much to the staff who really encouraged us!☆\(^-^)/

夫婦と仲間で参加させていただきました。
最初スタッフに日本語話せる方が居ないのかなと思っていたら、日本語がペラペラの方がいて安心して参加できました☆
足のつかないところでは泳げないのでシュノーケルの参加は遠慮しようと思っていたら、ライフジャケットをちゃんと付けて、スタッフの方が常にサポートしてくれる形で無事に海ガメとお魚も見れました！
度付きの水中ゴーグルもありみんなで参加出来たので嬉しかったです！
シュノーケルの後にSUPも出来て本当に大満足なツアーでした☆
今回のハワイ旅行の中で船で食べた軽食のスパムにぎりが1番美味しく感じました♪
ホットドリンクもスナックも海で疲れた体に沁みました〜！
本当に背中を押してくれたスタッフの方、ありがとうございました☆\(^-^)/

Love:
- beverage and donuts onboard
- live music —> huge plus
- lots of equipment and activities
- staff are amazing! Very friendly and helpful
- love how you are almost guaranteed to see the corals and fish — great exp

What can be improved:
- the area is very limiting, so you can’t go too far with the kayak or SUP

The crew was great! The entertainers were very good. Our family had a very nice time but were disappointed with the snorkeling. Very limited area with not many fish to see. It was a nice afternoon overall.

Since the morning tour I wanted was fully booked at the time of reservation, I participated in the afternoon tour. When I entered my accommodation details during the booking, they specified the nearest pickup location.

During the tour, there was a staff member who spoke Japanese to assist us after boarding. While snorkeling, I was able to see a sea turtle up close, creating memories that are hard to experience in daily life. After snorkeling, we enjoyed various activities at our leisure, and the tour concluded.

What I was glad to bring was definitely a waterproof case for my smartphone. I bought it at a 100 yen shop in Japan, and it was fairly usable. It was a bit difficult to operate underwater while snorkeling, so I might have been more satisfied with something of better quality.

Also, a bath towel is important. If you can borrow multiple towels from the hotel, it's better to bring one along. After coming out of the sea, your body gets cold, so having one for drying off and another to wrap around you is great!

予約時は希望の午前中ツアーがいっぱいだったので午後のツアーに参加しました。予約時に宿泊先を入力すると、最寄りのピックアップ場所を指定してもらいました。

ツアーでは乗船後に日本語ができるスタッフさんにもご対応いただきました。シュノーケリングではウミガメを間近で見ることができ、日常ではなかなか体験できない思い出ができました。シュノーケリング後は各々自由なアクティビティを楽しみ、ツアーは終了しました。

持参してよかったのはやはりスマホ防水ケース。日本で100均で買ったものでしたが、まぁまぁの使い勝手でした。シュノーケリング時に水中での操作は難しかったので、もう少し性能がいいものだと満足かも？

あとはバスタオル。ホテルで複数枚借りれれば持って行った方がよいです。海から上がれば体は冷えますし、拭く用と体に羽織る用があればGoodです！

Very well organized
Good directions
Great music
Had a great time
Will recommend to friends
