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>

It's the best! 最高です!

Reviewed by: フラトモ

Before going to Hawaii, I was concerned about the weather, but it didn't rain and was cloudy instead. It was low tide, and the sandbar appeared beautifully, which was breathtaking. My friend, who was excited to see the honu (sea turtles), was thrilled to spot them popping their heads out of the water and surfacing for air while snorkeling among the corals. It was really great to see that. The crew on the boat was very friendly and provided explanations in Japanese, making me want to go again.

The food was delicious. We walked through the water to reach the sandbar, but the sandbar itself has corals, so it can be painful to walk on it barefoot. I recommend bringing marine shoes if you have them. You can buy them locally, but we went barefoot. The staff were also walking around barefoot. While the tide was coming in, the boat rocked a bit, so if you're prone to motion sickness, I think taking motion sickness medication would be wise. I usually don't get seasick, and I felt I didn't need any medication. I highly recommend the sandbar.

ハワイ行く前に予約して天候が気になりましたが、雨は降らず曇りでした。
ちょうど引き潮の時でサンドバーが綺麗に出現していて感動でした。一緒に行った友達もホヌを見るのが楽しみで、サンドバーに向かっている途中でも海面から頭を出すところやシュノーケリングでサンゴに隠れている所とか呼吸のため海面に上っていく姿見れてすごく良かったです。船の乗組員も日本語で説明してくれたり超フレンドリーな方ばかりでまた行きたいと思うほどです。
食事も美味しかったです。サンドバーまでは海の中を歩いて行きましたが、サンドバー自体がサンゴのため海面から出ると裸足だと痛いです、マリンシューズ持ってる方は持って行った方がいいかと思います。持っていなくても現地で買えますが私たちは裸足で行きました。スタッフさんも裸足でスタスタ歩いていました。海が満ちてきている途中は船が揺れて、車酔いされる方は酔い止めは必要かと思います。私は普段酔わないですが酔い止めはいらなかった感じでした。サンドバーお薦めです。

First sandbar experience. 初めてのサンドバー

Reviewed by: NAMI

I think it's a tour that is influenced by the tides. It was my first time participating, but I was able to land on the sandbar successfully. Maybe it's because I've been behaving well lately—haha! I was also able to see the honu (sea turtle) properly. When it was time to return to the port, the guide waved goodbye and came to greet us!

We practiced snorkeling in the shallow waters, and the guide stayed with us, constantly checking in to see if we were okay, which was reassuring. The meal we had on the boat was super delicious. I especially loved the chili beans. I definitely want to participate again!

潮の満ち引きで左右されるツアーだと思います。初めての参加でしたが、しっかりサンドバーに上陸出来ました。日頃の行いが良いからかなぁー笑
ホヌちゃんにもしっかり会う事ができました。また、港に蛙時間になったら、武具さんがバイバーイって、ご挨拶に来てくれました!!
浅瀬で、シュノーケリングの練習もするし、一緒に着いてきてくれて、また大丈夫?って、常に声をかけてくれるので安心でした。
船で頂いた食事も、超~美味しかったです。
特にチリビーンズがお気に入りです。
是非、また参加したいでーす。

We participated as a couple.
The weather on the day was cloudy with occasional rain, which made the scenery disappointing.
The snorkeling visibility was not great due to the lack of sunlight. It was cold for late April with this weather.

The lunch was delicious, and the staff's service was very good.
A sea turtle came right up close, and we were able to observe it closely.

I do not recommend the rainy season. I think it's better to choose a different time to participate. 雨期はおススメしません。時期を選んで参加した方がいいと思います。

Reviewed by: ハワイラブ

The rain has stopped, but the wind was strong due to the clouds, and it was cold enough to make me feel like I was freezing. Some participants were wearing down jackets because of the cold. The waves were high from the wind, and the sea water was murky with low visibility. Also, tips are not included in the tour fee, so I intended to give a tip, but the pressure for tips was overwhelming and took away from the experience.

雨は止みましたが、雲で風が強く、寒くて凍えそうでした。
寒くて一部参加者はダウンジャケットを着ていました。
風で波が高く、海の水は濁り、透明度はあまりありませんでした。

AWESOME TIME, AWESOME CREW

Incredible, awesome, different and the crew are OUTSTANDING!
My 2nd time, and I brought along 23 people with me and again it was GREAT. All our first timers LOVED it. It was rough seas from a severe storm the two previous days, which affected seeing the crater on the sea floor, but lots of fish were out to play. Saw quite a few turtles too.
All my guests said it was TERRIFIC and they had a ball!!
The crew are always smiling, helpful and FUN!!!

It was disappointing that the water was cold, but I was glad to see the turtles. 水が冷たくて残念でしたが、かめを見ることができてよかった。

Reviewed by: ちょろぺい

I participated in the tour on the morning of April 12. The tide was high, and the minimum line was at waist level, so we couldn't see the sandbar. Moreover, the weather was bad and the water temperature was low, causing those who participated in snorkeling to shiver so much that they could hardly eat. It was disappointing that we couldn't fully enjoy the sea, but it was nice that a turtle came close to the boat. The staff also entertained us, and the food was delicious.

4月12日朝のツアーに参加しました。
潮位が高く、最低ラインは腰の位置で、サンドバーは見れませんでした。
しかも、天候が悪くて水温が低く、シュノーケリングに参加した人たちは、寒さで食事を取る手もガタガタ震えていたほどです。
十分に海を楽しむことができなくて残念でしたが、亀が船の近くまでよってきてくれたので、よかった。
スタッフも楽しませてくれたし、食事も美味しかった。

The weather was not great and it was cold. 天気がいまいちで寒かったです。

Reviewed by: TOMO

On the day of the event, it was cloudy with a north wind blowing, so I rented a free wetsuit. Since it was high tide, the water level in the sandbar area was up to my stomach, which was different from what I had seen in the guidebook, so I was a bit disappointed. Just as we were leaving, the weather finally improved, and at the very end, I was able to see the beautiful emerald green sea and encounter a sea turtle, so I rated it three stars.

参加当日は曇りで北風が吹いており寒かったため、無料のウェットスーツをレンタルしました。ちょうど満潮だったため、サンドバーのエリアも潮位はお腹の辺りまであり、ガイドブックで見たサンドバーとは異なっていたため、少しガッカリしました。帰り際にようやく天気が回復してきて、最後の最後でエメラルドグリーンに輝く綺麗な海が見られたのと、ウミガメに出会えたため、評価は星3つとしました。

Because it was a filming location for a movie. 映画の撮影地だったので。

Reviewed by: まっきー

I participated because it was a filming location for the movie Pirates of the Caribbean. It took about 15 minutes from the port to the mooring point. During the ride, I enjoyed some drinks and brownies. When getting off the boat, I waded in the water to walk to the point. The shallowest water level at the point was about ankle-deep. The weather wasn't perfectly clear, but it was pleasantly sunny, and I had a great time.

After that, it was snack time. It was a buffet-style meal where you could eat as much as you liked. The food was good, especially the sausages, which were delicious. After finishing the meal, it was time for snorkeling. Unfortunately, it started to rain, so I couldn't see the beautiful underwater scenery with sunlight, but I did see a sea turtle.

When we returned, we had some free time to play with standing paddles and balls. My family cut their feet on the sandbar, but they received treatment from the first aid kit. The staff were very kind, and I had a fulfilling time. I would love to participate again!

If you're looking forward to enjoying the sandbar, I think it would be better to check the tide levels in Kaneohe in advance to have a more enjoyable experience.

映画パイレーツオブカリビアンのロケ地だった事もあり参加しました。
港から15分程で係留ポイントへ。
着くまでの間に飲み物とブラウニーをいただきました。
船から降りる時は腰浸かり、歩いてポイントへ。
ポイントの1番浅い水位は足首くらい。
天候は快晴…とはいかなかったものの、程よく晴れて楽しめました。
その後は軽食タイム。
バイキング形式で好きなものを好きなだけ食べられました。
味もGOOD。特にソーセージが美味しかったです。
食事を終えるとシュノーケリングタイム。
ここで雨が降ってきてしまい、太陽が差し込む綺麗な海中は見られなかったですが、ウミガメも見られました。
戻ってきてから時間があったので、スタンディングパドルやボールで遊ぶ時間がありました。
サンドバーで家族が足を切ってしまいましたが、ファーストエイドキットで処置してもらいました。
その他にもスタッフの方に親切にしていただき、充実した時間を過ごせました。
また参加したい!

サンドバーを楽しみに行かれるなら、事前にカネオヘの潮位を調べて参加された方が楽しめるのではないかと思います。

The sandbar's low tide timing was perfect... but the weather was overcast.
I had a 20-minute snorkeling session and got to see a lot of turtles.
Above, there was a large school of saury, and below, I spotted an eel!
It was a good decision to bring marine boots instead of going barefoot on the sandbar.
If I had enough space in my bag, I might have brought short fins for snorkeling.
I hope the weather is fantastic next time!

It was a very nice time away from everyday life. ❤ 日常から離れたとてもいい時間でした❤

Reviewed by: ハッビーライフ

I was picked up at the hotel, and although it started raining on the way, it stopped when we arrived. Then it rained again when we got on the boat, but it stopped once more. I was most concerned about the water level, but it was low, and we actually had a sandy beach! ❤
The staff were kind and friendly, taking photos with us and even acting as photographers, so we got a lot of great pictures. ✌
Right after that, we went snorkeling, and the staff provided very thorough instructions on putting on life jackets and masks, checking everything, and practicing to ensure that even first-timers could do it safely.
During snorkeling, the staff were always with us, making sure we didn't bump into the coral and showing us where the turtles were, so we could enjoy watching beautiful fish and turtles while feeling safe.
The BBQ on the boat was also very delicious, and we really had a great time and made wonderful memories.
Thank you so much to all the friendly staff. I definitely want to use this tour again when I visit Hawaii next time.

ホテルでピックアップしてもらい、行く途中に雨が降ってきたのに着いたらやみ、船に乗ったらまた雨が降ってきてまたやみ、という繰り返しでしたが、一番気にしていた水位も低くなんと砂浜でした❤
スタッフの人も優しく親切で一緒に写真を撮ったり、カメラマンになってくれたりでいい写真が沢山撮れました✌
その後すぐにシュノーケリングでしたが、ライフジャケットの装着からマスクの装着の説明、点検、練習と、初めての方でも事故の無いようにととても丁寧な対応でした。
シュノーケリングではスタッフの人が常に一緒で珊瑚に当たらないよう見ていてくれたり、カメの居場所を教えてくれたりと安心して綺麗な魚やカメを見ながらシュノーケリングできました。
また船上のBBQもとても美味しくてほんとにいい時間、いい思い出ができました。

The weather was nice, and the whole family had a great time! 天気もよくて家族みんなで楽しめました!

Reviewed by: みーちゃん

The day after the wedding, eight family members from both sides (ages 21 to 65) participated. The weather was nice, and we enjoyed walking slowly along the sandbar together. We took a lot of photos, and the staff were kind and helpful, which we appreciated.

For snorkeling, we were told we would swim in a spot where our feet wouldn't touch the bottom for 20 minutes. Since both mothers from each family were not confident, I decided to stay back as well. However, we were able to rent a boat and snorkel in shallower areas, which was a lot of fun. We even got to swim with sea turtles in the shallow water! By the way, my 65-year-old father really enjoyed snorkeling too (laughs).

The BBQ lunch was buffet-style, and the meat was tastier than I expected! There were also desserts. The staff were attentive and asked if we wanted more juice, which made us very satisfied!

結婚式翌日、両家の家族8人(21~65歳)で参加しました。
天気もよく、サンドバーをゆっくりみんなで歩いて楽しかったです。写真もたくさん撮っていただいて、スタッフのみなさんも優しくてありがたかったです。
シュノーケリングは20分間足がつかない場所で泳ぐとのことで、両家の母親が自信がないと残ったので私も残ったのですが、ボートの貸し出しや浅い場所でのシュノーケリングをさせていただき、とても楽しかったです。浅いところでもしっかりウミガメと泳げました!ちなみに65歳の父はしっかりシュノーケリング楽しめたそうです₍笑₎
BBQランチはビュッフェスタイルですが、お肉が思ったよりおいしかったです!デザートもありました。ジュースのおかわりもスタッフの方が気を遣って聞いてくれたりして大満足でした!

It's cold on rainy days. 雨の日は寒い

Reviewed by: Chiyoko

I traveled to Hawaii without deciding what to do and made reservations on-site. I booked the Segway and Kualoa Ranch by phone, but it was inconvenient without a local number. However, with Veltra, everything was done via email and in Japanese, which was super convenient...!!!

On Saturday morning, I wanted to go to the farmers' market featured in the manga "Chatterbox After Breakfast," so I reserved the afternoon barbecue lunch option.

Basically, wearing a swimsuit is fine. I wore a bikini-style swimsuit that looked almost like clothes, along with a cover-up and a T-shirt, and most people around me were dressed similarly.

Depending on the weather, the day I went was not great, and it was really cold. I passed by the morning group at the dock, and everyone looked cold, but aside from that, it was really good.

- The barbecue lunch was a buffet style on the boat, and surprisingly delicious.
- I encountered a sea turtle. It came close to the boat as if the captain was keeping it. It swam right next to us.
- The snorkeling was fun with high visibility.
- For those who want to try stand-up paddleboarding, it's available! I didn't do it, but I regretted not trying.
- Hot coffee and tea were also available.
- Photos can be downloaded from the web later.

They also lend wetsuits for free to those who want them. Onboard, they sell waterproof disposable cameras, beach shoes, rash guards, T-shirts, and anti-nausea bands. The prices aren't excessively high compared to the market, so it might be worth buying. They also offer rentals for waterproof digital cameras.

What I was glad I brought was a waterproof case for my phone. Depending on the time and season, the day I went had quite a bit of water, and there weren't any beautiful dry sandy beaches like in the guidebooks. The water level was consistently around chest to shoulder height. A regular phone would definitely get submerged.

I brought a regular-sized towel, but a slightly larger one or even a bath towel would have been better since it was cold.

I want to try again on a nice day!

ハワイで、なにをするかも決めずにバタバタと渡航して、現地から予約。セグウェイとかクアロアランチは電話予約したのですが、現地の番号がないと不便でしたが、ベルトラからだとオールEメール、オール日本語でめっちゃ便利....!!!

土曜、午前中は、漫画「おしゃべりは朝ごはんのあとで」のハワイ編でも紹介されていたファーマーズマーケットへ行きたかったので、午後のバーベキューランチ付きの方を予約。

基本的に水着を着てけばオーケー。わたしはビキニタイプのほぼ洋服みたいな水着に、はおりもの+Tシャツでいきましたが、周りもほとんど同じような感じです。

天候によりますが、わたしが行った日は天候に恵まれず、すごく寒かったです。。
船着場で午前便の人たちとすれ違ったのですが、皆さん寒そうでファンになりましたが、寒い、という以外はすごくよかったです。

-バーベキューランチは船上でビュッフェすたいるなんだけど、以外と美味しい。
-ウミガメ遭遇しました。キャプテンが飼ってるんじゃないかというくらい船に寄ってくる。リアルに横を泳ぐ。
-シュノーケルも透明度高くて楽しかった
-Supやりたい人は体験可能!これやらなかったんだけど、やればよかったと後悔。
-飲み物はホットのコーヒーとお茶もある
-写真は後日一枚、ウェブからダウンロード可能

ウェットスーツも希望者に無料で貸し出してくれます。
船上での販売物として、写ルンです(防水)、ビーチシューズ、ラッシュガード、Tシャツ、酔い止め防止バンドなどあります。相場より並外れて高いというほどではないので、購入してもいいかも。防水デジカメの貸し出しもあるそうです。

持って行ってよかったのは携帯の防水ケース。時間と時期によるのか、わたしが行った日はだいぶ水があって、ガイドブックに載ってるような干上がった美しい砂浜はなかったです。常に胸下から肩くらいまでの水位。普通の携帯なら確実に水没します。

タオルは普通サイズのタオルでいったんだけど、少し大きめか、いっそバスタオルがよかったかも。寒かったから。

天気いい時にリベンジしたい!

ハワイ水中スクーター 泳げなくてもOK!シーボブで海底散歩&シュノーケリングクルーズ

The fish is cute. 魚かわいい

Reviewed by: あさひ

Before entering the water, we gathered as a group of Japanese people to watch a video. Since it was just watching, I wondered if I could really do it, which made me quite anxious. I thought a Japanese guide would be on our boat, but instead, we were on a different boat with only local people, and since we couldn't communicate, it added to my unease.

I had assumed my face wouldn't get wet, so I wore makeup, but I ended up getting soaked while entering and exiting the water. We were divided into groups and it felt like a conveyor belt as we kept going into the sea. For those who are scared, being pushed underwater without any mental preparation can be frightening.

It was unfortunate that the weather was bad and cold. While other groups were doing their activities, we were told we could snorkel freely, but there was no one to follow us (there might have been someone, but we couldn't communicate!). There was one person snorkeling alone, but there were no staff watching over us. Given the high cost, it was disappointing to think that the snorkeling fee was included for just a 10-minute Sea Bob experience with no one to supervise.

However, the underwater scenery was beautiful!

入水前に日本人だけで集められビデオを観ます。観るだけなので、本当に出来るかな??と、なかなか不安を煽られます。
日本人ガイドさんも船に乗ってくれると思っていましたが、違う船に乗られ、現地の方だけしかおらず言葉も通じないので不安でした。
顔は濡れないと思っていたので化粧をしていったのですが出入りでがっつり濡れます。
グループ分けをされ流れ作業のように、どんどん海に入っていく形でした。心の準備をする前に海にもぐらされるので怖い人は怖いと思います。
あいにくの天気で寒かったのが残念です。
また他のグループが行なっている間、シュノーケルは自由にしていいとのことでしたが、誰もがフォローしてくれる人がおらず(いたのかもしれないけど言葉が通じない!)出来ませんでした。
1人シュノーケルをしてる人はいましたが、誰もスタッフで見ている人はいませんでした。
高い金額なだけに、10分のシーボブ体験のみに、誰もみてくれないシュノーケル代も込みかぁ…と残念です。
海の中は綺麗でした!

As expected. 想定通りの結果

Reviewed by: あばれるちゃん

There are other tours to the heavenly sea, but Captain Bruce's tour was great. We were able to encounter relatively shallow areas. It was difficult to find pictures that looked too stylish, but there was about knee-deep shallow water.

天国の海ツアーは他にもあるが、キャプテンブルースのツアーは良かった。比較的浅瀬のところに出くわすことができた。写真のようなオシャレすぎる絵は難しく膝上ぐらいの浅さはあった。

It depends on luck. 運次第

Reviewed by: FUJICO

I chose this tour because Captain Bruce's tour can take you to the shallowest spots, and although it was a bit pricey, I wanted to ensure a good experience. I checked the low tide times and made a reservation, but the water was up to my knees. I was disappointed. To reach the shallowest area, you have to wade through water up to your waist, so be prepared to get wet. It was unfortunate that the weather was bad and I couldn't see the views I was hoping for. That's just luck. I didn't want to get my face wet, so I skipped snorkeling, but I enjoyed stand-up paddleboarding. I felt that 30,000 yen, including tips, was expensive.

キャプテンブルースさんのツアーが一番浅い場所まで行けるとのことなので、少し値は張りますが確実を狙いたくてこちらのツアーにしました。干潮の時間を調べて予約しましたが、膝下まで水がありました。がっかり。一番浅い所に行くまでに腰まで水に浸かりながら行くので、濡れる覚悟は必要ですね。天気が悪く思っていた景色が見れず残念でした。こればっかりは運ですね。顔を濡らしたくなかったのでシュノーケリングはパスしましたが、サップをさせて頂け楽しかったです。チップ込みで30000円は高く感じました。

Thank you very much for participating in the Captain Bruce's Paradise of the Sea Tour the other day. The sandbar is a mysterious space created by various natural conditions. Since it is an outdoor tour, it can be affected by the weather, but during such times, our staff is even more eager to ensure that you have a fun time. By the way, tips are appreciated only if you are satisfied with the service. We hope you will come back to visit the sandbar again to experience its different facets.

先日はキャプテンブルース天国の海ツアーにご参加頂きまして本当にありがとうございました。
サンドバーは様々な自然条件が織りなす不思議な空間です。また屋外でのツアーのため天候によっても左右されますが、そんな時こそ出来るだけ楽しいお時間を楽しんで頂けるようスタッフがより張り切ってお客様をお迎えしております。ちなみにチップはあくまでもお客様がサービスにご満足頂いた時のみご検討頂ければ嬉しいです。ぜひまた機会があれば違った表情のサンドバーに会いにお越し頂ければと思います。

BOB's Hawaii Underwater Scooter Adventure & Turtle Watching Tour

A fantastic experience ... but

Reviewed by: MerlinsEgo

First, allow me to emphasize just how professional and engaged the divers, driver and the captain was on this experience. Seriously these guys were fantastic .. they were always attentive, showed understanding and you felt in very capable hands the whole time. This aspect was important to my wife as she had some very serious apprehensions about doing this ..but being a dutiful husband I badgered her until she agreed :-) .. took a few weeks.

The pre-trip meeting answered any questions we had and explained the workings of the submersible in terms of engaging the motor .. but nothing in regards to steering the vessel which i thought interesting.

We had a big group of approx 20 people so we just all fitted on the small boat. The seas were a little rough so a few people got a little woozy but nothing too bad.

My wife and I were one of the first to try out the scooters and the process to get in them was simple and effective .. no diving underwater to get in them .. this was a relief to my wife. We were in the water almost immediately and already could see fish in the distance. So we were very excited !

Here is where i was a little disappointed .. we had been trained to use foot pedals to engage the motor for the propellor but mine seemed to be a much older model and had the button on the steering column. No big deal i guess except i had an underwater camera with me and hence could not use it while the motor was engaged, which is approx 80% of the time. Consequently i was unable to take many photos .. disappointed.
I now understood why we were not taught the steering of the submersible ..you don't steer it ..there is a diver that holds onto 2 of the vessels the whole time and steers it. This was disappointing as i had no control on where to go.

In summary this was a FANTASTIC experience and again i want to emphasize how good the divers and crew were .. BUT it felt more like an amusement park ride than what the marketing suggests.

Thanks guys

ハワイ水中スクーター 泳げなくてもOK!シーボブで海底散歩&シュノーケリングクルーズ

It's easy!! 簡単にできる!!

Reviewed by: さんた

I believe the place where I watched the Japanese video before getting on the boat was near Kakaako.

The reason I didn't give it 5 stars is that while they take photos for you, I thought it was a bit expensive, so I gave it 4 stars (I don't remember the price ^^;).

Since there is food for the fish on the scooter, they came swimming around a lot, which was really fun!! You can also eat plenty of snacks!

Unlike diving, even those who can't swim can easily participate. However, this means there are fewer activity elements. When I went diving at another place, they provided thorough instructions on equalizing, but here the video only said, "If your ears hurt, please equalize," so I felt that some people might struggle with that.

恐らく、ボートや乗る前の日本語ビデオを見た場所はカカアコ付近だったと思います。

最初に星5ではない理由ですが、写真を撮ってくれるのですが、高いなぁと思ったので星4つにしました(値段は覚えてないです^^;)。

スクーターにエサが付いているので、魚が凄い寄ってきて楽しかったです!!スナックもいっぱい食べれます!

ダイビングと違い、泳げない人でも簡単に乗ることが出来ます。その分、アクティビティ要素は少ないです。
ですが、他の場所でダイビングをした時は、耳抜きの説明を入念にされたましたが、こちらはビデオで「耳が痛ければ耳抜きをして下さい」程度の説明だけなので、出来ない人もいるんじゃないかな?と感じました。

It wasn't what I expected, and I was a bit disappointed. I felt that it wasn't worth the participation fee. The weather was bad, and it was too cold to even get into the water without shivering, so there was no way I could go snorkeling. I also couldn't see the scenery that looks so beautiful in photos.

思っていた感じではなく
少しがっかりでした。
この参加費を払って行くほどの価値はないけなと感じました。
天気が悪かったのもありますが寒すぎて海に入るのも震えながらで、とてもじゃないけどシュノーケリングできる状態ではありませんでした。写真で見るような景色もみれませんでした。

A Professional diver was assigned to each individual which was reassuring. A sea turtle was by us practically the whole time. Our diver caught an small octopus a let us touch it. The photos and video also was worth buying as many friends at work have enjoyed watching it and would like to try this someday!
