Jason and Alan were very friendly and knowledgeable. Jason took me out to snorkel and I saw fish, coral, and turtles. The sandbar was really cool and neat. I recommend Captain Bruce.

We had a great time. The crew was exceptionally friendly. The boat was clean and they offered drinks and snacks.
I can’t say enough on the crew members they were very accommodating and made our trip extremely fun
The views were incredible. Snorkeling on the barrier reef was a one of a kind experience.
Mahalo Claudia! We're very pleased to hear that you had a great time at sandbar. Thank you so much for joining us and giving us your wonderful review. We hope to see you in the near future!

This excursion was okay at best. Though we were able to see dolphins, which was lovely, the snorkeling was blah. First the company took us south along the island, versus out into the ocean, and guided us snorkeling right by a power plant on the shoreline. There were some pretty fish, maybe 3-4 different species. The coral was not colorful; they informed us that is typical for Hawaii. Friends we have that live on the islands state there are beautiful coral reefs, you just need to know where to find them. Apparently, this company does not know where to find these reefs. The catamaran ride was just lovely, but that's it. Again, nothing special. The crew were fine when talking to us as a group but not one-on-one. Then they seemed guarded and annoyed. I would not recommend this excursion.

I went alone, but the staff was friendly and I had a great time. I was moved when a sea turtle swam close to me about three times (even though we’re not supposed to touch them). I took the bus from Honolulu, and I recommend leaving with at least a two-hour buffer. Be sure to bring a change of clothes as well.
1人で行ったのですが、スタッフが親切で十分楽しめました。ウミガメが(触ってはいけないのですが)3度位近くまで泳いで来て感動しました。

There are two types of courses: an early morning departure and a midday departure. With the early morning departure, the water level is about knee-deep, while with the midday departure, it rises to just above the knees. They have plenty of inflatable toys and equipment available, so you can enjoy yourself without any worries. The staff follows very strict safety standards, so I think you can feel safe bringing children along to play.
早朝の出発か、昼発の2タイプコースがありました。
早朝出発だと、水位がひざ下まで、昼発だと水位がひざうえぐらいまであがるようです。
浮き輪などの遊具もたくさん用意してくれているので、気軽に楽しめます。
すんごい安全基準の厳しいスタッフさんなので、こども連れでも安心して遊べるとおもいますよ。

The crew was fun and easy going. One of the crew men urged us to do the snorkeling and it was one of the best decisions we made. While on the sand bar 3' of water) we saw a small fish that hung around our family the entire time. It was the coolest thing to experience. Then my 7 year old and I went to the reef to snorkel and saw several large sea turtle just a few feet away. It was awesome.

We couldn’t” be happier with the whole adventure. Relaxing, exciting, entertaining, and educational all in one trip. We were fortunate to have everything we expected. We learned to snorkel. We saw many beautiful fish while in the water, attracting many by using the fish food we bought and scattering it around. While on board we learned a bit about the Catamaran we were on and how it was sailed. The sights were identified and all our questions were answered by the knowledgeable seaman. They offered many fun facts as well along the way. They were alway alert to our needs, assuring that we had fun and stayed safe. When the dolphins appeared, the nature and habits of the creatures were discussed, The differences between the type of dolphin following the boat and other dolphins was made. We were fortunate enough to have a sea turtle come and check us out as well. The people we had on board with us were friendly and polite and enjoyed the trip as well. I heard no complaints from anyone. I would recommend this company for this adventure to anyone who wants to have a fun snorkeling trip with a great crew, and an adventure that is safe and informative.

Ricki was very patient and helpful in making our (my wife & my) first time snorkeling experience so good. My wife didn't know swimming but Ricki's tips helped put her at ease and she enjoyed it as well. Due to the small group nature of the tour, fortunately there was only 2 of us and we had lots of fun. Saw lots of fishes and reef. Would definitely recommend this to anyone looking for beginner lessons.

It was an incredible downpour. Before going, I looked at many pictures of Heaven's Beach and thought that since the water was about knee-high, I could enjoy it even though I'm not a good swimmer, so I made a reservation. However, due to the heavy rain, the water level was high, and at 155 cm, I was barely able to stand on my tiptoes.
The waves were rough and murky, which was scary, so only my husband went snorkeling while I waited. I was able to enjoy paddleboarding with others who were waiting, but I had imagined a calm, clear sea with turtles swimming nearby, so I was quite disappointed.
The lunch was delicious, and the crew on the boat were nice people, but the sea in February was freezing cold, and everyone else seemed eager to go back. It was at a level that could be laughed about, so I hope to have a revenge trip someday.
ものすごい大雨でした。行く前に天国の海の写真をたくさん見て、高さも膝上ぐらいで泳ぎが苦手でも楽しめそうだと思って予約しました。大雨のせいで水位が高く、私は155㎝ですが爪先立ちしてあごギリギリでした。
波も荒く濁っていて怖かったので、主人だけシュノーケリングに行き私は待っていました。
待っている人でサップ等をして楽しめましたが、膝丈の穏やかな透き通った海で亀が近くに泳いでいるのをイメージしていたので、かなり残念でした。
ランチは美味しくて船の方々もいい人でしたが、2月の海の雨は震えるほど寒く、他の方もみんな早く帰りたそうでした。笑い話になるぐらいのレベルだったので、またいつかリベンジしたいと思います。
