BOB's Hawaii Underwater Scooter Adventure & Turtle Watching Tour

Adventure of a Lifetime

Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous

I attended with my two neices, who are very afraid of water. The BOB offered them the opportunity to experience the ocean and its inhabitants without knowing how to swim. They were truly overjoyed with their experience under water. We were all a bit concerned, at first, with the staff who didn't interact well with customers but once everyone experienced the BOB they began to interact more with customers.

Where is the sandbar? サンドバーはどこ?

Reviewed by: KEN

I participated in the afternoon tour. The tide was high, and it was quite a challenge to walk on the sandbar. The barbecue lunch was delicious. They provided us with wetsuits, so I wasn't cold, but those who weren't wearing them looked chilly.

午後のツアーに参加しました。潮が満ちて、サンドバーを歩くのもアップアップでした。バーベキュウランチは、美味しかったです。ウエットスーツを貸していただいたので寒くありませんでしたが、着ていない人は寒そうでした。

Unbelievable アンビリーバボー

Reviewed by: momo

I participated on the morning of July 14th. A stunning sandbar appeared in the midst of a deep blue sky, pure white clouds, and the ever-changing blue ocean! It was a beautiful scene unlike anything I had ever seen before, making me question whether it was a dream or reality. It was a miraculous landscape created over many years. I was thrilled to see the honu (sea turtles) up close and had an amazing time. The malasadas were also very delicious.

7/14午前に参加しました。真っ青な空、真っ白な雲と変化するたくさんの青の海の中にサンドバーが見事に出現!!今まで自分が見たことのない、夢なのか現実なのかわからないような美しい景色が広がりました。長い年月の中から生み出された奇跡の風景です。ホヌもまじかに見ることができて大感激の時間を過ごしました。マラサダもとてもおいしかったです。

BOB's Hawaii Underwater Scooter Adventure & Turtle Watching Tour

Unique Experience

Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous

This was a unique experience and is a great way to get underwater if you are afraid to scuba dive or want to try something other than skorkel.

The only downside was the service was a bit below par compared with some of the other services we were getting. They were not rude, but definitely not that friendly. They acted like they didn't want to be there and seemed to rush everything. The exception is the young man, who appears to be Hawaiian. He took interest and appeared to enjoy his job.

An island close to heaven. 天国に近い島

Reviewed by: かめぴー

We participated as a family of four. Since it was the morning session, as soon as we set sail, we were served malasadas. We checked the tide schedule in advance, so we were able to land perfectly on the sandbar. The sandbar has no shade, so be sure not to forget sunscreen. After that, we enjoyed snorkeling. We were told there were sea turtles, but since they weren't near me, I couldn't encounter them. However, I was able to see them while on the boat. The staff were also fun and friendly, which was great.

家族4人で参加しました。午前の部なので、出航するとすぐにマラサダがでました。サンドバーは、事前に潮の満ち引きも調べて参加したので、ばっちりサンドバーに上陸することができました。サンドバーは、日陰がないので、必ず日焼け止めを忘れないように。それから、シュノーケーリングを楽しみました。ウミカメがいるよといわれましたが、自分の近くでなかったため、遭遇することができませんでした。
しかし、船に乗っているときに見ることができました。
スタッフも楽しい方たちで良かったです。

BOB's Hawaii Underwater Scooter Adventure & Turtle Watching Tour

Awesome

Reviewed by: Snickerpoodle

You don't even get your hair wet, and fish swim right up to you and pick at the bread in your hand. You breathe normally. You can see them perfectly clearly and they come to you. This was really fun. Then you can snorkel around the boat while the other people take their turns, in couples, riding the little underwater scooters. Don't do this if you're prone to seasickness. But if you don't want the hassle of SCUBA, this is the best way to be underwater with the bright little fish.

I returned for a repeat visit. リピしました

Reviewed by: みかん

I previously participated in this tour and had a great time, so I joined again this time. During the afternoon BBQ lunch tour, I was able to see many sea turtles. Unfortunately, the sandbar had a high water level this time, so it wasn't visible, but the scenery was beautiful and amazing. The snorkeling seemed to have fewer fish... The BBQ on the boat was also fantastic! The meat was really delicious. There were nearly 50 participants this time, and the boat was quite crowded, plus while snorkeling, I often bumped into others, which made it a bit uncomfortable. I hope they consider limiting the number of participants per session a bit more.

以前このツアーに参加してとてもよかったので、今回また参加しました。
午後のBBQランチ付きの回でたくさんのウミガメを見ることができました。
残念ながら今回はサンドバーはかなり水位が高くて海面が出てなかったですが景色はキレイで最高でした。
シュノーケリングは魚がちょっと少なかったような・・・。
船の上で食べるBBQも最高!お肉かなりおいしいです。
今回参加者が50人近くいて、ボートがぎゅうぎゅうだったのとシュノーケリングも泳いでて人とぶつかることが多く気を使いながらという感じだったので1回の参加人数に制限をかけるなどもう少し考えてほしいと思います。

I participated in the morning tour. I was amazed by the solitary, pure white sandbar in the middle of the beautiful sea. It was surprisingly easy to see the sandbar so clearly. However, walking on it was a bit painful... But the stunning scenery was mesmerizing.

I also got to see sea turtles, which was a fantastic experience.

The staff were really great, and I had a lot of fun.

I highly recommend it!!

きれいな海の真ん中にポツンと真っ白なサンドバーに感動。

It's great!

Reviewed by: Margaret N.

The entire experience was very nice. It's great! A good trip for anyone. We could have just stayed put and enjoyed the ride, but I did get in the water. They helped me relax and enjoy it. The crew was very helpful. We only had 8 people making it more personal. I have no idea how many they usually have. There is plenty of room to walk around and do your own thing.

The crew was wonderful, very accommodating and knowledgeable. It was my most favorite thing about our entire Oahu trip! We loved being able to see the spinner dolphins jump. There were so many fish! My husband loved helping to put up the 450 pound sail. Not a day we will soon forget! We didn't want to get off the boat at the end of our time... we'll definitely be back.

Reviewed by: Sunny

For those who don't know scuba diving but yet wish to experience the life under the sea, need to do this. Very nice experience and enjoyed it. Try feeding the fish and you are surrounded by them ... various colors of fishes ... would recommend to those who wish to go underwater and don't know swimming like me. A bit discomfort to the ears at the beginning but gets fine soon. Good Instructors and the divers shall be with you throughout your stay in the water. Go for it!!

Let's go to the sea of heaven! 天国の海へ行こう!

Reviewed by: Swimmer

The weather was great, the beautiful sea was visible, and I was able to swim, so it was GOOD. The staff also helped create a fun atmosphere. The BBQ was delicious.

However, if I participate next time, I would like to request the following improvements.

For the program that involves walking down to the beach, please provide marine shoes. A friend cut their foot. (After that, we couldn't enjoy free sightseeing or sports.) I believe entering the sea barefoot is unsafe. I participated with marine shoes (I was the only one).

During snorkeling, there were no fins available for rent. Without fins, it's difficult to move as desired, so it wasn't enjoyable. Also, since everyone was wearing life jackets, we couldn't dive and were just floating.

If these two points could be improved, I would like to participate again next time. Unfortunately, I didn't see any sea turtles.

P.S. Everyone participating was very nice. Thank you. Thank you to the staff.

天気に恵まれ、美しい海が見れ、泳げましたので、GOODでした。スタッフさんも、雰囲気を盛り上げてくれて楽しめました。BBQもおいしかったです。
但し 次回参加するとしたら、次の改善をお願いします。
歩いて、ビーチに下りるプログラムでは、マリンシューズの用意をお願いします。友人が足を切りました。(以降自由な観光、スポーツが出来ませんでした)基本的に素足で海に入ることは、安全上NGと考えています。自分はマリンシューズを持って参加しました。(唯一私のみ)
スノーケリングの時、足ひれの貸し出しがありませんでした。足ひれがないと、思うように進みませんので楽しめません。且全員ライフジャケット着用なので、もぐりが出来なく、ただ浮かんでいる状態です。
2点改善していただければ、次回も参加したいと思います。
海がめは、残念ながら見れませんでした。
追伸 参加されている方は、皆さんとても良い感じの方でした。ありがとうございました。
スタッフさんありがとうございました。

It was beautiful! きれいでした!

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

The weather was nice, and the heavenly sea was very beautiful. The staff was also very fun and attentive. The sandbar had water up to about my knees, but it was really beautiful, and the good weather was a plus. I saw about four turtles. During snorkeling, the first time there were too many people, so I couldn't see well, but those who wanted to could go a second time, and since there were few participants, I was able to enjoy it quite freely. There were fewer fish, but it was enjoyable. The BBQ was just delicious.

天気も良く、天国の海はとってもきれいでした。
スタッフもとても楽しく、すごく気遣ってくれる方たちでした。
サンドバーは膝下くらいまで水がある程度でしたが、本当にきれいでしたし、天気も良くて良かったです。亀も4頭くらい見れました。
シュノーケリングでは1回目は人が多くてあまりよく見れませんでしたが、希望者は2回目に行けて、希望者が少なかったので、割と自由に楽しめました。魚は少なめですが、楽しめます。
BBQは普通においしかったです。

I participated with my 4-year-old and 1-year-old! We got to see sea turtles, and although the water was a bit deep, we were able to go in and even made a DVD (^-^). This became the most fun memory of our trip to Hawaii!

Even though my kids couldn't go snorkeling, they were satisfied watching the pufferfish and stingrays that gathered around the boat! The BBQ was delicious, and my daughter, who usually dislikes meat, was devouring it!

My shy and timid daughter seems to have the best memories from this experience (^^). Joe?! He was really funny and high-energy♪ I saw him later in Waikiki and tried to call out to him, but he didn't notice me... (T▽T). He was running towards someone else (laughs). I absolutely want to participate again!

4歳1歳の子供と一緒に参加させてもらいました!
海がめも見れたし少し深かったですが海にも入れDVDを作ってもらいました(^-^)
今回のハワイで1番楽しい思い出になりました!

子供はシュノーケリングはできないものの船に集まってきたフグとエイを見れ満足してました!BBQもおいしくって肉キライの娘がお肉をバクバク食べてました!

It was a very fulfilling experience! The staff were incredibly kind, cheerful, and attentive. The BBQ was delicious, and seeing the sea turtles made it the best day ever! I was also glad to finally try Leonard's malasadas. My husband, who joined me, had a great time and is already excited to participate in this tour again when we go to Hawaii next time! The only downside was that we didn't see many fish while snorkeling, but they taught us how to snorkel carefully, so I felt safe diving in! Thank you for everything!

とっても充実した内容でした♪
スタッフの皆さんはとても親切&愉快&気配りの行き届いた方々で、BBQも美味しく、海亀も見れて最高の一日になりました☆食べたかったレナーズのマサラダも食べれて良かった☆
一緒に参加した主人は、とにかく楽しかった様子で、次回ハワイに行ったときも絶対にこのツアーに参加する!と意気込んでいました☆
唯一、シュノーケリングはあまりお魚が見れませんでしたが、シュノーケルの仕方も丁寧に教えていただき、安心して潜ることができました!

I had a valuable experience. 貴重な経験をできました

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

I was half excited and half anxious about whether I could really go snorkeling, but the staff were so nice that I felt at ease. Moreover, they were very kind to the children, and it seems they had a great time. It was a valuable experience.

As for the barbecue, my expectations were a bit too high, so it was somewhat disappointing, but I was glad to have something warm to eat. However, it was cramped, making it difficult to go for seconds or leave. It can't be helped...

Thank you very much.

My child sends their regards to Norio.

楽しみ半分、私にも本当にシュノーケリングできるのか不安半分でしたが、なんといってもスタッフがいい人で安心してできました。しかも、子供に対しても非常にやさしくて大変楽しめたようです。貴重な経験でした。

バーベキューは、あまりに期待が大きすぎていまいちでしたが、暖かいものが食べれてよかったです。ただ、狭くておかわりにいったり、帰ったりが大変でした。仕方ありませんが・・・

ありがとうございました。

子供が、のりお君によろしくとのことでした。

It was a beautiful place with a unique location. ロケーションが珍しい、きれいな所でした

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

I've been to Hawaii many times, but this was my first visit to this particular place. As I had heard, it was truly wonderful.

(Good points)
1. The unique location is truly remarkable. Surrounded by beautiful seas and the mountains of Hawaii, with white sand, it was really a mysterious and lovely place.

2. I appreciated how the female staff genuinely cared about making everyone enjoy their time. After all, it's the experiences we create that become memories, so in that sense, it was very good.

3. The lunch in the afternoon was not just a typical tour add-on; it was well-prepared and delicious.

4. Three rays approached the boat asking for food. It was my first time seeing rays up close, and I was thrilled.

(Not-so-good points)
1. The public restroom at the port was a bit... even men would want to hold it in. Since there are no other options, the likelihood of needing to use it is high, so I wonder if something can be done about that.

2. The weather on the day I visited wasn't great, and the sky was quite cloudy. As a result, the sea was also cloudy (reflecting the sky), which diminished the excitement. During snorkeling, it was disappointing that visibility wasn't very good.

3. Similarly, since the weather was not ideal, the women were particularly shivering when they got out of the water. It would be best to prepare bath towels or windbreakers as much as possible.

4. I don't think anyone would compare it to Australia's Great Barrier Reef, but compared to that, there weren't as many fish (during my visit). So, for those who know about it, don't have such expectations...

5. Even though it's called white sand, there are slightly pebbly areas, so it's not completely sandy.

Those who only skim through the not-so-good points might lose their motivation to go, but these are just minor issues. I think it was worth going. Just to be clear.

ハワイは何度も来ていますが今回初めて行きました。聞いていたとおりとても素晴らしいところでした。

(良かったところ)
1.何といっても珍しいそのロケーション。綺麗な海、ハワイの山々に囲まれ、白い砂、本当に不思議な、素敵な所でした。

2.スタッフの女性が本当にみんなを楽しませようと気遣いがうれしかったし、良かったです。所詮人間って場所は当然として、その時の体験で想い出を作っていくと思うのでそういう意味でもとても良かったです。

3.午後のランチは、良くありがちなツァーのおまけレベルではなくきちんとしていて美味しかったですよ。

4.エイがボートに近寄ってエサをねだっていました(3匹)。エイを近くで見たのは初めてだったので感激しました。

(良くなかったところ)
1.港の公衆トイレがちょっと・・・で、男でさえ我慢したくなる程でした。他にないため利用する機会確率が高いのでこれはどうにかならないものかと。

2.行った日の天気があまり良くなくて空は曇りがちでした。そのため海も(空を映すので)曇っていて、感激が半減という感じでした。スノーケリングの時もあまり深いところまで見えにくく残念でした。天候はどうにもならないですが、晴れた時との違いがとても大きいと感じました。

3.同じく、天気がいまいちだったので水から上がった時、特に女性陣が震えていました。できるだけバスタオルか風よけ上着等を準備しておいた方が良いです。

4.オーストラリアのグレートバリアリーフと比べる方はいないかと思いますが、それと比べたら魚はそんなに多くいませんでした(私の時)。なので、それを知っている人はそんな期待はしないように・・・。

5.白い砂といっても微妙に小石はあるので完全な砂ではないですよ~。

良くなかったところだけつまみ読みした方は行く気を失せてしまうかもしれませんが、これは”あえて言うなら・・・”というレベルです。私は行って良かったと思っています。念のため。

You absolutely should go. 絶対行ったほうがいいです。

Reviewed by: kazu

The sandbar and the ocean were truly beautiful. I was moved to see the colors of the ocean change for the first time. I also got to see many honu (turtles), and they were adorable. The water level at the sandbar was up to my waist (and the water temperature was cold), so walking was a bit challenging, but it's not every day you get to walk in such a beautiful ocean, so I enjoyed it. The snorkeling was great too; I saw a lot of fish. The BBQ lunch had plenty of delicious meat cooked right on the spot. It was just as good as Yummy Korean BBQ. The staff were all wonderful people. I will definitely participate again next time!

サンドバー・海、本当にキレイだった。海の色が変わるところを始めてみたので感動しました。ホヌさん(カメ)もたくさん見れて可愛かった。サンドバーは、腰くらいまで潮位があったので(水温も冷たくて)歩くのが大変でしたが、あんなにキレイな海を歩くことはそんなに出来ることじゃないので、楽しめました。シュノーケリングも魚をたくさん見られて良かったです。ランチのBBQは、その場で焼いてくれたお肉がたくさんあって美味しかった。ヤミーコリアンBBQに負けないくらいです。スタッフの方もみんな良い人ばかりです。次回も必ず参加します!

Jin is wonderful!!! ジン君素敵!!!

Reviewed by: mariannnu

I made a reservation on-site and participated with a friend.

At first, I thought it would only be Japanese people, but there were also various people from Europe and America, which made me really excited. The inside of the boat was clean, and the restroom was nice too.

As we set off, the captain immediately started explaining in English, and I thought, "I don't understand this at all (#^.^#)," but then, to my surprise, Jin-kun appeared, speaking Japanese fluently (and he was handsome too)! He asked, "Are there any Japanese people here?" It was so cute and hilarious!!

Thanks to that, I was sure I could enjoy myself without worry!

The sea was incredibly beautiful, with different shades of blue depending on the location, and the breeze felt nice. I didn't want to go back, even though we had just started.

Before long, we spotted dolphins, and they kept coming one after another!!! In the end, there was a huge group of over 20 dolphins swimming right next to the boat, and they were so cute, I was extremely satisfied☆

After that, during snorkeling, I swam with sea turtles and fish, feeling like I had become a fish myself. It was quite cold after snorkeling, but there were four showers with warm water, so I was able to warm up.

And finally, it was time for lunch☆ While preparing lunch, Jin-kun jokingly asked about the chicken, "Is this your first time eating dolphin?" which surprised me and made me laugh a lot☆

The lunch was delicious, and I ended up eating a lot (*^_^*).

When my friend felt a bit seasick, Jin-kun noticed and asked, "Are you okay?" He was very considerate and gave various advice, which was really helpful. He's a thoughtful guy.

In the end, I took a photo with Jin-kun and reluctantly headed back (__).

As you can see, I really became quite fond of Jin-kun on this tour!!!!!!!

It was an absolutely wonderful tour that I definitely want to go on again☆☆☆

現地で予約して友達と2人で参加しました。

初めは日本人だけかと思いきや、欧米の方達も色々いて、
すごくワクワクしました。
船の中は清潔でトイレもきれいでした。

出発すると、すぐにキャプテンが英語で説明してくれて、わかんないやこりゃ(#^.^#)と思っていたら、なんと!!!
日本人より流暢と言っていいほどの日本語を話す(しかもイケメン)ジン君が登場!!
「え~、日本人の方いますか~?」
って、キュン殺&超うけました!!

そのおかげで、安心して楽しめると確信!!

沖のほうは海がすっごく綺麗で、青色が場所によって違って、風も気持ち良いし、帰りたくない!!と出発したばかりなのに、思ってしまうほど。


そうこうしてるうちに、イルカが見えてきて、しかも次々に!!!
しまいには、20匹以上かと言うくらいの大群が船のすぐ傍をずっと泳いでいて、かなり可愛くて、大満足☆


その後、シュノーケリングでは海がめや魚達と一緒に泳いで、自分も魚になったような気分でいました。
シュノーケリングの後はかなり寒かったのですが、ちゃんと温かいお湯の出るシャワーが4つもあり、温まる事ができました。


そして、いよいよlunch☆
lunchの準備中、またまたジン君がチキンの事を
「イルカ食べるの初めてです?」
とかいう、冗談言うもんだから、
めちゃびっくりして、大笑いしました☆

lunchがまたおいしくて、いっぱい食べちゃいました(*^_^*)

友達が少し船酔いしていると、ジン君が気づいて、
「大丈夫ですか?」
と、気遣ってくれて、色々アドバイスくれたので、助かりました。気が利く子です。


最後にジン君と写真撮影して、泣く泣く帰りました(__)



と、お分かりの通りこのツアー、私はかなりジン君がおきにいりになりました!!!!!

I'm deeply moved. 感激です

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

The weather was somewhat okay with strong winds, cold temperatures, and a mix of sunshine and clouds, but since I checked the low tide times and participated, a wide sandy beach appeared on the sandbar, and it was incredibly beautiful.

A beach emerged in the middle of the sea, surrounded by very clear water, and I was moved by the scenery I had never seen before.

The snorkeling was cold, but I was able to borrow a wetsuit, so I could swim without feeling too cold. I was excited to see many larger fish than I expected.

They provide life jackets, so even if you can't swim, you can still snorkel. My 8-year-old and 5-year-old children participated as well, but when it came to snorkeling, they started to get scared of swimming in water where they couldn't touch the bottom, and I thought they would have to give up. However, the staff kindly prepared a small inflatable boat, allowing the children to clearly see the fish in the water from the boat.

I am very grateful for their kindness. We were able to see about 15 sea turtles, right in front of us. Those who entered the water early were able to swim together with them.

It might be a bit cold at this time of year, but I was able to see the best scenery that you can't see in Japan and had a wonderful time swimming with the fish.

風が強くて寒くて晴れたり曇ったりで、天候はまぁまぁでしたが干潮の時間を調べて参加したためサンドバーの砂浜が広範囲に現れ、最高にきれいでした。
海の真ん中に砂浜が現れ、まわりはとてもきれいな海で見たことのない景色に感動しました
シュノーケルは、寒かったのですがウエットスーツを貸してもらえたので泳ぐときは寒い思いをせずやることができました。
思っていたより大きな魚が沢山見れ興奮しました。
ライフジャケットを貸していただけるので、泳げなくてシュノーケルできます。
8歳と5歳の子供も参加しましたが、シュノーケルになると足の届かない海で泳ぐことを怖がり始め、断念せざるおえないと思っていましたが、スタッフの方が小さいビニールボートを用意してくださって、子供もボートの上から海の中の魚をはっきり見ることができました。
とても親切にしてくださり感謝しています。
海亀も15匹くらい見ることができました。
それも目の前で。
早く海に入った人は、一緒に泳ぐこともできました
今の時期、少し寒いかもしれませんが、日本では見れない最高の景色を見れ、魚と泳ぐことができ楽しい思いをすることができました。

The dolphin tour had several options, and I was unsure which to choose, but I picked this one and it was the best decision. The boat was a large catamaran, spacious, clean, fast, and felt safe. We first went to the dolphin point and after seeing the dolphins, we headed to see whales. We spotted a spout in the distance and approached it quickly because the boat was fast, allowing us to get close in no time. After chasing and watching the whales for a while, we returned to the dolphin point for snorkeling. The equipment was clean, and the staff took great care of my 4-year-old grandson. There was a staff member named Tamiko who spoke Japanese, which was reassuring. She taught the Japanese guests with great care. At the snorkeling point, by chance, while my grandson and I were playing near the boat, a large sea turtle surfaced right beneath us, coming up very close. I was so surprised that I took off my snorkel and shouted, "It's a turtle!" This stroke of luck was shared by the two of us and two foreign guests nearby. The others were away from the boat and missed this fortunate encounter. After that, we had lunch, which was luxurious and surprisingly impressive for a meal on a boat. The drinks included unlimited beer and Hawaiian cocktails, and we could eat wherever we liked on the boat. During that time, the boat cruised even further than the whale sighting point, making for a very satisfying watching cruise. My wife was also very satisfied, and I think we will definitely become repeat customers. I highly recommend it. There are other tours nearby, but they can't compare in terms of luxury.

イルカツアーはアランさんのなかでもいくつかあり、迷いましたが、このツアーにして最高でした。船も大きな双胴船で、広くてきれいで速くて安心でした。最初にイルカポイントへ行きイルカを見た後今度はクジラをミニみにいきました。遠くに潮を吹いているのを見つけて近づくのですが船が速いのですぐに近くまで行けました。そこでしばらくクジラを追いかけてウォッチングをした後またイルカポイントへ戻りそこでシュノーケリングです。道具もきれいで4歳の孫にはスタッフの方がいろいろと世話をしてくださいました。日本語の出来るタミ子さんという方がおられたので安心でした。日本人には彼女が丁寧に教えてくれました。シュノーケルポイントではたまたまですが私と4歳の孫が船の近くで遊んでいたら真下から大きなウミガメが浮上したきて、すぐそばに浮き上がり、あまりの驚きにシュノーケルを外して『カメだー』と叫んでしまいました。この幸運は私たち二人と近くにいた外人さん二人の4にんでした。たの人たちは船から離れていてこの幸運に遭遇できませんでした。その後はランチでしたがこれが豪華で船の上の食事とはおもえないくらいの感動ランチでした。飲み物もビールはもちろん、ハワイアンカクテルも飲み放題で船の上で好き勝手な場所で食事でした。その間また船はクジラを見たポイントよりもまだ先までクルーズしてくれて大満足のウォッチングクルーズでした。
家内も大満足で多分リピーターになると思います。
絶対オススメ。近くに他のツアーも来ていますが豪華さでは比較になりませんよ。

It was wonderful! 素晴らしかったです!

I was able to go just when the sandbar was out, and I saw a very beautiful sea (^−^). Also, I was really happy to see many sea turtles. ☆ The staff were very kind and taught us well, and I definitely want to participate again! The time spent on the boat wasn't too long, so even for someone like me who gets seasick, I had a great time!!!

ちょうどサンドバーが出ている時間にいけて、とても綺麗な海が見れました(^−^)
また、ウミガメも沢山見れて本当によかったです。☆
スタッフさんも丁寧に教えてくれて、是非また参加したいと思っています! 
船に乗っている時間もそんなに長くないので、船酔いの私にも十分楽しめました!!!

A surprising tsunami warning... まさかの津波警報…

Reviewed by: おりふぁら

I was originally scheduled to participate on February 27, but due to a tsunami warning from the earthquake in Chile, I had to cancel... I ended up being stuck in the hotel during such nice weather, but when I called Alan and the tour company, they were very accommodating and I was able to reschedule for March 1. Thank you very much!

The sea in heaven is truly blue! Emerald! It was so beautiful! However, the wind was really strong, and the captain seemed to be in a good mood, saying, "The wind is strong!" (laughs). Even though I was shivering, I enjoyed the heavenly sea in the area where the tide had receded. The white sand was probably affected by the wind, as there wasn't much, but I will never forget the excitement of standing in the blue sea.

For snorkeling, since the wind was strong and the current was fast, I couldn't swim, so I just watched from the boat, but that alone was satisfying. Next time, I will practice swimming! I was able to see turtles about ten times from the boat. The food was delicious, and the crew was entertaining, so I was very satisfied!

I hope to go again on a really sunny day! Thank you!

本当は2月27日に参加予定だったのですが、チリの大地震による津波警報が出てキャンセルに…
すごくいい天気の中ホテルに監禁状態になってしまい、Alan1さんや、催行会社に電話をしたら、とても良い対応をしてくれて、3月1日に日を変えて参加することが出来ました^^ありがとうございました!
天国の海は本当に青!エメラルド!すごくキレイでした!
ただ風がすごく強くてキャプテンも「カゼツヨイネー!」とご機嫌?でした笑。震えながらも潮が引いた場所で天国の海を満喫しました^^白い砂は、風の影響かな?あんまりなかったですが、青い海の中に立てた瞬間の感動は忘れられません。

シュノーケリングは風も強く潮の流れが早いということで、泳げない私は船から見ていましたが、それだけでも満足できました^^次は泳ぎの練習をしていくぞ!!船の上からも亀さんを10回ぐらい見ることができました^^ご飯もおいしかったし、クルーの皆さんもおもしろかったし、満足です!

次はすっごく晴れた時に行けたらいいなと思います!
ありがとうございました!

Jump at the sandbar! サンドバーでジャンプ!

Reviewed by: るんるん

We went as a family of eight. It was really cold on the day of our visit, and most people rented wetsuits. I was looking forward to snorkeling, but unfortunately, the weather made the waves too strong, which was difficult for beginners, so I couldn't do it. Later, when I asked another tour guide, they told me that the sandbar isn't a place for snorkeling. When I did it in Guam before, there were no waves and no coral, so I could just float around, but it seemed like you had to swim here, which was disappointing.

However, my 81-year-old grandmother had never been in the ocean until this year, and she enjoyed her first experience while wearing a wetsuit. The sandbar had quite a low tide, so all eight of us held hands and jumped together, making it a really fun family trip.

家族8人で行きました。
当日はとっても寒くて、ほとんどの人がウエットスーツを借りてました。私はシュノーケリングを楽しみにしてたのですが、あいにくの天候で波の流れが早く初心者には難しくて出来ませんでした。あとでほかのツアーのガイドさんに聞いたら、サンドバーではシュノーケリングやるところじゃないよ~って言われました。前にグアムでやったときは全然波のないサンゴなどもないところで囲いをつけてやったので、ぷかぷか浮いてるだけだったので私でも出来ましたが、ここでは泳げないとダメみたいで残念でした。
でも、81歳のおばあちゃんはこの年まで海に入ったことがなかったそうで、ウエットスーツ着ながら初体験を楽しんでいました。
サンドバーは潮がけっこう引いてたので、8人全員で手をつないでジャンプしてとっても楽しい家族旅行になりました。

It's truly a heavenly sea! まさに天国の海!

Reviewed by: BSB広

I've never seen such a beautiful sea... I was moved.
It's not like the shallow waters in Japan; in the morning, due to the tides, the sand doesn't show, so you definitely have to walk in the areas where the tide has gone out.
I also enjoyed snorkeling, and the BBQ was delicious—I'll definitely go again!

今まで見たこともない美しい海・・・感動しました。
日本の海にある浅瀬ではないんですね、午前中は潮の満ち引きの関係で砂が顔を出さないとか、絶対潮が引いたとこを歩かなきゃ駄目ですよね。
シュノーケリングも楽しめましたしBBQも美味しかったー、絶対もう一度行く!

Sandwalk!!! サンドウオーク!!!

Reviewed by: ヨッコ

I researched the data and it was perfectly low tide, so I participated in the afternoon BBQ tour. The staff created a fun atmosphere, and I ended up having a great time. The BBQ lunch was unexpectedly delicious, and I even encountered sea turtles while snorkeling.

At Sandwalk, we had plenty of time, and the staff took photos of all the participants and uploaded them to the website, so I was able to see them right after returning home, which helped me recall the enjoyable time we had. It not only reminded me of our experience but also of the other participants, making it even more memorable.

If I could wish for something, I would like the snorkeling time to be longer. While I understand the importance of the explanations, I felt they were a bit lengthy. They are necessary for beginners, but not for those who are more experienced. Perhaps grouping participants according to their skill levels would be a good idea.

Also, one of the photos taken is sold, but I was disappointed because I thought it would be a larger size, not the standard size. Honestly, $10 is quite expensive for that, especially since the backing is very plain.

Overall, I really enjoyed the content and felt it was worth participating in.

データを調べてバッチリ干潮時だったので、午後のBBQツアーに参加しました。スタッフの方の楽しい雰囲気作りにいつの間にか乗せられてとても楽しむことができました。予想以上に美味しかったBBQランチ、シュノーケルでは海亀とも出会えました。
サンドウオークではたっぷりと時間があり、参加者全員の写真を撮りHPにアップしてくれたので、帰国後は直ぐに見ることができて楽しかった時間を思い出せました。自分達だけでなく、参加者の方々を思い出せるのでより思い出深くなると思います。
欲を言えば、シュノーケルの時間をもっと長く取れると良いなと思います。大切だとは思いますが、説明時間が長いと思いました。初心者には必要ですが、慣れている方には不要ですから。
力量に合わせてグループ分けしてはどうでしょうか。
また、撮ってくれた写真1枚は販売されますが、普通サイズではなく一回り大きなサイズだと思っていたのでがっかりしました。
あれで$10は正直高いです。台紙も全く色気なしですから。
内容的にはとっても楽しめて参加して良かったと思いました。

The sea in heaven is the best! 天国の海、サイコーです!

Reviewed by: an

I participated with my mother on our first overseas trip together. Since my mother is over 60, I was a bit worried about whether she would enjoy it among the younger participants, but thanks to the fun guidance from the staff and the stunning beauty of the ocean, those worries disappeared. We had a great time. My mother, who can't swim, stayed on the boat during the snorkeling time, but she was able to enjoy the beautiful sea without getting seasick. I was truly glad that we didn't switch to a cheaper company after hearing that Captain Bruce's boat is the only one that can land on the sandbar. Thank you very much!

初海外の母と二人で親子参加しました。
還暦を過ぎた母ですし、若い人たちの参加の中で楽しめなかったらどうしよう~~と、少し不安でしたが、スタッフの方の楽しい案内や、あまりの海の綺麗さにそんな不安はどこへやら・・・。
とっても楽しかったです。
泳げない母は、シュノーケルの時間はずっと船の上でしたが、それでも船酔いすることなく、綺麗な海を堪能できたようでした。
キャプテンブルースの船が、唯一サンドバーに上陸できると聞いて、破格の値段の会社に乗り換えずによかった~~と心から思いました。
本当にありがとうございました!
