野生のイルカウォッチング＆ウミガメシュノーケリングクルーズ　ゆったり遅め出発プランあり＜ランチ＆アルコール3杯付き／ワイキキ送迎or現地集合＞

Refreshing! 気分爽快！

Reviewed by: なおむし

We participated as a family, and we were the only Japanese people there. When I conveyed that I wasn't very good at English in broken phrases, the captain said, "No problem." Anyway, all four crew members worked hard, were attentive to the guests, and were very friendly, which felt great. The sky, which was cloudy in the morning, cleared up, and we were able to see dolphins, sea turtles, and a family of sea lions.

For snorkeling, they provided life jackets, so I felt safe and enjoyed it. However, after swimming, it gets very cold when the sea breeze hits you, so I think it's better to bring a towel (and a jacket) with you.

It became a wonderful memory.

家族で参加しましたが、日本人は私達だけ。あんまり英語が得意じゃないと、カタコトで伝えると、船長さんは、ノープロブレムと言ってくれました。とにかく4人のクルーがみんなよく働くし、お客さんのことも気にかけてくれて愛想がよく、気持ちがよかったです。朝は曇っていた空も晴れてきて、イルカやウミガメ、オットセイの親子も見られました。
シュノーケリングも、ライフジャケットを貸してくれるので安心して楽しめました。ただ泳いだあとは、海風に当たるととても寒いので、しっかりタオルを(上着も)持っていったほうがいいと思います。
いい思い出になりました。

Captain Bruce Kaneohe Sandbar Tour with Snorkel, SUP & Waikiki Transport

One of the best experiences in Hawaii!

Reviewed by: Nina

This is one of the most memorable experiences that we've during our recent trip! The staff as so accommodating from the very beginning of our cruise to the end. We were in such a beautiful location to relax and just have fun and really appreciate Hawaii. There were many snacks, water and other drinks that came with our package. Another great thing is that we could bring our own alcoholic beverages. We saw at least 3 turtles and other beautiful fishes in the ocean. The lift vests were comfortable and we were guided by the staff while swimming out during snorkeling. We would do this again!

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

Best experience ever!!

Reviewed by: azrigsby

This was a wonderful trip. The crew was phenomenal. They were very attentive to the passengers and were extremely knowledgeable about the area and the marine life present. In addition to the turtles promised, we even spotted the first whales of the season (quite early, in fact) and had dolphins come right up to use within the reef, also a rare happening. One of the nicest things about this group is that, even though their vessel can hold up to 80 passengers, they keep the number of people in the group small in order to make it a much more enjoyable and interactive experience. I would highly recommend this group for their professionalism and attention to detail. If I had more time on my trip, I believe I would have taken this trip again or one of their other offerings. It is WELL WORTH the low price, and I would highly recommend this to anyone wanting a truly magical snorkeling adventure.

Absolutely breathtaking. まさに絶景。

Reviewed by: ロコロコ

We participated as a couple. We took a shuttle bus to the port and transferred to a boat to the sandbar. The scenery was truly breathtaking. We were blessed with good weather and enjoyed snorkeling and paddleboarding. During snorkeling, we were able to see fish playing around the corals and even spotted a sea turtle up close, which was moving. On the boat while it was anchored, there were plenty of snacks, apples, and drinks, so we didn't have to worry about getting hungry. The staff were all very friendly, which made the tour even more enjoyable. However, this tour had mostly Japanese participants (there were also people from Taiwan and Korea), but the explanations about how to spend time in the sea and safety instructions were only in English. After the English explanation, they asked those who didn't understand to raise their hands, and a Japanese staff member provided explanations in Japanese as a service. On another optional tour, they always provided explanations in Japanese along with the English ones, so that was a bit disappointing. Overall, it was really fun to experience a different side of Hawaii than Honolulu. I definitely recommend participating when you go to Hawaii.

I used this service for my honeymoon in late September. We quickly arrived at the sandbar by boat from the port. During the boat ride, the staff provided explanations. The main language was English, but they also kindly explained in Japanese, which made me feel very reassured. (There were probably about three Japanese couples participating.)

I checked the tide levels before making the reservation, but fortunately, the sky was clear, and the water depth at the sandbar was just right. First, we put on life jackets and swam in relatively deep, beautiful coral reefs. We were able to see sleeping sea turtles, the staff attracted fish for us, and we even got to touch starfish. My wife, who can't swim, was able to enjoy herself without worry. The sea was, of course, beautiful.

After returning to the shallow area, we were able to take wonderful pictures with stunning views. When we got back to the boat, they had coffee, juice, snacks, and apples prepared, so we could take a break if we got tired. The staff were all smiling and supported us in having a great time. It became a lifelong memory. I definitely want to participate again when I come back to Hawaii!!!

Thank you, everyone! One piece of advice: the round-trip bus has very strong air conditioning, so it might be good to have something to wear over your shoulders!

I joined a sandbar tour because I wanted to see the beautiful ocean. When the English guidance started, I was a bit worried, but they kindly explained everything again in Japanese. Finally, we arrived at the sandbar. It seemed like everyone was good at swimming, as it naturally led to snorkeling, and we all went into the water in our swimsuits. Since neither my husband nor I can swim, we waited in the shallow area of the sandbar, and the instructor brought a float for us to hold onto while pulling us towards the deeper water. Looking into the ocean, we saw so many beautiful fish swimming around, and a large turtle swam right underneath us. It was a truly magical experience. I am grateful to the instructor who gently guided us through the stunning ocean, making it the best memory of our 10-day trip to Hawaii.

I was very satisfied with the abundance of sea turtles. ウミガメがいっぱいで大満足

Reviewed by: Yama

My wife and I participated together. We checked the tide level of the sandbar in advance and chose a day with relatively shallow tides to plan our trip and tour schedule. The tide level when we participated was about 60 cm, allowing us to enjoy the atmosphere of the sandbar. Whether walking or swimming, it takes about 5 minutes to reach the sandbar area. Outside the sandbar area, the water gets deeper, and there are corals, where we went snorkeling. We encountered many beautiful fish and sea turtles. It was very moving to see a large sea turtle sleeping on the seabed and three smaller sea turtles swimming together. We were very satisfied and were able to fully enjoy ourselves for over an hour. The only downside was that the water was a bit murky.

We brought our own snorkels and fins. The tour provided snorkels, but it seemed they did not have fins available, as other participants were not using them. If you want to enjoy snorkeling seriously, I think it's best to check in advance whether they can provide fins.

The staff were all able to speak Japanese, and they were kind, cheerful, and very good.

　妻と2人で参加しました。事前にサンドバーの潮位を確認して、比較的潮位が浅い日を選んで旅行とツアーの日程を決めました。参加したときの潮位は60cmくらいで、サンドバーの雰囲気を味わうことができました。ボートを降りて、歩いての移動でも、泳ぎながらの移動でも、5分くらいでサンドバーのエリアが終わります。サンドバーのエリアの外側は、深くなっていて、珊瑚もあり、この深いエリアでシュノーケリングをします。たくさんの綺麗なサカナやウミガメに会えました。大きなウミガメが水底で眠っているところや、小さめなウミガメが3匹で泳いでいるところなどが見られてとっても感動しました。私たちは大満足で、１時間以上、フルに楽しむことができました。唯一、水が濁っていたのが少し残念でした。
　私たちは自前でシュノーケルとフィンを持って行きました。ツアーでもシュノーケルは貸していましたが、フィンは用意されていないようで、他の参加者はフィンを使っていませんでした。本格的にシュノーケリングを楽しみたい方は、フィンを貸してくれるかどうか、事前に確認した方が良いと思います。
　スタッフの方々は、皆さん、日本語も話せて、親切で明るくて、とても良かったです。

Reviewed by: Annette

Amazing day even with the rain. Definitely coming back when it's sunny and low tide. Captain Robin and his team were super friendly, amazing and patient. Even with the rain there was plenty of fish and turtles to see. I'm not a strong swimmer and I need to touch the bottom (it's weird I know) but Captain Robin was so accomodating, calming, understanding and patient and took me out to the deep reef area on a floater device and I was able to see the fish and turtles. I'm glad he did and I'm glad he didn't push me when I tapped out early. True champion.
The vessel is clean and has plenty of snacks and hot and cold drinks if you don't want to take your own. You can take your own alcohol and they also have plenty of water toys, paddle boards, floatation devices in a seperate raft.
Make sure to bring cash to tip as they are definitely deserving of any gratuity and the experience is amazing as well. One I'll definitely do again when I'm back next time.
Thank you so much was a wonderful day.

Unfortunately, it was cloudy with occasional rain on the day of the tour, but it was still a highly satisfying experience. Even before reaching our destination, we could see sea turtles from the boat, and we enjoyed the cruise with delicious snacks (Mochiko Chicken was the best) in hand. Despite the clouds, the refreshing view of the sea and sky made the activities enjoyable. Since it was early September, the water was a bit cold at first, but it gradually warmed up. The snorkeling was deeper than I expected, but even with the murky water, we could see plenty of sea turtles and tropical fish up close, which was a lot of fun!

We had a one-year-old child with us, and everyone was welcoming and kind. During our free time, we could easily move between the covered area of the boat and the sea without worrying about disturbing others while taking care of baby food and diaper changes. There were also free rentals of floaties and underwater viewing boards, and my son seemed to have a great time.

The explanations were in English, but they also provided additional explanations in Japanese, which was reassuring. Just be cautious about the order of stops for the return bus, as it was different from the outbound trip, so you might miss your stop.

当日は残念ながら曇り時々雨でしたが、それでもかなり満足度は高いツアーでした。目的地到達前からウミガメが船上から見え、付いてきた美味しい軽食(モチコチキン最高)を片手にクルーズを楽しめました。曇っていても見渡す限りの海と空の爽快感でアクティビティも充実。9月早朝だったので最初は水がやや冷ためでしたが徐々に温かく。シュノーケリングは思ったより深いところでしたが水が濁っていてもウミガメも熱帯魚も触れる距離で沢山見えて楽しかった！
一歳の子供がいましたが、皆さん歓迎ムードで可愛がってくださり、自由時間中は屋根付きの船内と海を自由に行き来出来るので周囲に気を使う必要なく離乳食やオムツ替え等できました。浮輪や水中の見える浮板？の無料貸し出しもあり、息子もはしゃいで楽しそうでした。

It had been three years since my last trip to Hawaii. Since I was going, I was really looking forward to the sandbar tour that I booked in advance. During the shuttle bus ride, they introduced us to recommended classic local foods along the way. We transferred to a boat to head to the sandbar. The weather was beautifully sunny, and it felt amazing to snorkel and play with floaties and on the boat. We even got to see sea turtles, and my parents, who were snorkeling for the first time, were well supported even though they couldn't swim. They really enjoyed feeding the fish as well. Although there was no meal provided, there were snacks, apples, and drinks available. The staff explained everything in both English and Japanese, and they were friendly, even taking photos for us. It was a wonderful tour. I brought a bath towel, a change of clothes, a wrap towel, a hoodie, and spam onigiri, so I was comfortable on the return bus without getting cold. They were very kind to stop by Leonard's as well. The sea was like paradise; it was truly a beautiful place.

There were sea turtles! ウミガメ居た！

Reviewed by: Dice

We participated as a couple. Half of the other participants were Japanese, and the rest were from China and South Korea. It was reassuring for my wife that announcements were made in Japanese after English. The tour was managed by the captain, a young man in charge on-site, and three other young staff members. The boat was made up of two vessels in blue and green, and we alternated between snorkeling and free time at the sandbar. The itinerary included pickup in Honolulu, boarding at the Kaneohe harbor, viewing heart-shaped coral, arriving at the sandbar, playing with SAP and floaties, and then moving to deeper waters while snorkeling to look for turtles. At the sandbar during my visit in mid-September, the water was about waist-deep, which was a bit different from what I expected, but we had fun. Even in mid-September, when we got out of the water and the sun went down, the women seemed a bit cold. I felt it would have been nice to have a pile hoodie in addition to a bath towel. No one was wearing wetsuits; we were moving as a group while looking for sea turtles while snorkeling, but on that day, we didn't encounter many turtles. I observed a turtle resting among the corals while swimming, and when I patiently searched alone, I was fortunate to see a turtle swim out from the corals to breathe. Although I was close to the surface, I was satisfied to swim alongside it. It might be better not to move in such a large group. Other than the turtles, we didn't see many brightly colored tropical fish. I wondered if the shuttle bus driver was affiliated with the food truck or perhaps related to the family, as we stopped by a malasada food truck on the way back and everyone bought the recommended malasadas, which were delicious. The shuttle car was cold due to the air conditioning, so it was fine on the way there before entering the water, but it might be good to have a change of dry clothes for the return trip. Alternatively, you could let the driver know you were cold. I took photos and videos with my iPhone in a waterproof case, but the compatibility wasn't great, as the case and strap reflected in the camera lens, and I couldn't use the touch screen underwater, which made handling difficult. I felt a GoPro would be better. It seemed there was no service for taking photos (and selling SD cards), so it would have been better to prepare a way to easily record the experience without compromising it. Overall, I had a great time and was satisfied. The boat ride wasn't too long, and it didn't sway enough to make me feel seasick. We had fun at the sandbar and got to swim with sea turtles, achieving what we wanted to do. It would have been perfect if there had been a jacuzzi on the boat for when it got cold. The level of service was high, and we had a pleasant experience. Thank you for everything!

夫婦2人で参加しました。他の皆さんは日本の方が半数、あとは中国や韓国の方々が参加されてました。英語の後に日本語でもアナウンスしてくれて妻も安心でした。ツアーはキャプテンと、現場を仕切る兄ちゃんと、あと若手の3名で船を仕切ってました。船は青と緑の2台構成で、船ごとに交代でシュノーケリングとサンドバーでの自由時間を過ごします。工程としては、ホノルルでピックアップ→カネオヘの港から乗船→ハートシェイプのサンゴを見て→サンドバー到着→SAPや浮き輪で遊んで→そのまま流れでシュノーケリングしながら深みに移動してカメを探す流れでした。サンドバーは私の参加したタイミングだと腰上くらいの水深で、砂州が島になってたりするのかなと思ってたのとはちょっと違いましたがまぁ楽しく遊べました。参加した9月中旬でも、海から上がって陽がかげると女性陣は少し寒そうでした。バスタオルの他にパイルのパーカーでもあると良かったなと感じました。ウェットスーツは着てる人居ませんでした、シュノーケリングしながら団体さんでウミガメ探しながら移動してましたがこの日はなかなかカメに出会えず、サンゴの間でじっとしてるウミガメを泳ぎながら観察する感じでしたが、一人で辛抱強く探してるとウミガメがサンゴの間から出て泳いで息継ぎに行くところに遭遇出来ました。こっちは水面張りつきではありますが、一緒に泳げたので満足です。あまり大所帯で移動しない方が良いのかな。後は、ウミガメ以外はあまり南国っぽい派手なお魚には出会えませんでした。送迎のバスのおっちゃんが提携してるのか惚れ込んでるのか、はたまた家族だったりするんじゃないかと思ったりもしましたが帰りにマラサダのフードトラックに立ち寄ってみんなでオススメのマラサダを買って、食べながら帰りました。おいしかったですよ。送迎の車はエアコンで寒いので、行きは海に入る前だから良いけど、濡らさない帰りの服の着替えはあった方が良いかも。もしくは運転手のおっちゃんに寒いアピールを。私はiPhoneを防水ケースに入れて写真や動画を撮ってましたが、ケースとの相性がイマイチでカメラレンズにケースやストラップが映り込んだり、水中では静電タッチが使えないとかハンドリングが悪いので、GoProの方がベターだなと感じました。写真撮ってくれる（そしてSDカードを買い取らせる）サービスはやってなかったみたいなので、体験を損なわなずに手軽に記録できる準備はした方が良かったです。総じて楽しく過ごせて満足です。船の移動もそんなに長くなく酔うほど揺れなかったし、サンドバーで楽しく遊べたし、ウミガメとも泳げて、やりたい事は出来ました。後は寒くなった時のために船にジャグジーでも付いてると完璧だったかもですね。サービスのレベルも高く気持ちよく過ごせました。お世話になりました！
