Oahu
This time, I checked the tide schedule in advance and made a reservation.
On the day of the trip, unfortunately, the weather was terrible with heavy rain... We boarded the boat and first went to see the sea turtles. The sandbar we saw on the way to see the sea turtles was very beautiful. We were able to see several sea turtles, which was great.
After that, we headed to the sandbar... Huh?? The part of the sandbar that was above the water was much narrower than what we saw on the way to see the turtles??? While we were looking at the sea turtles, the tide came in over time, and we couldn't see the sandbar as much as we had hoped. On top of that, the weather was unfortunate...
I checked the tide schedule and chose a day with a big tide, but I learned that the timing of low tide is also very important. I hope there will be a day when I can try again.
今回、予め潮順をみて申込みました。
当日は、あいにくのお天気でどしゃぶり・・・
船に乗り、最初にウミガメを見に行きました。
ウミガメを見に行く際に見えたサンドバーは、とても綺麗に見えました。
ウミガメは、何匹も見えてとても良かったです。
その後、サンドバーへ。。。
あれれ？？カメを見に行く途中に見えたサンドバーよりもかなり海面に出ている部分が狭くなっている？？？
ウミガメを先に見に行っている間に、時間の経過とともに潮が満ちてきて思っていたほどのサンドバーを見ることができませんでした。
そのうえあいにくのお天気・・・
潮順を見て、大潮の日を選んで申し込みましたが、やはり干潮の時間もとても大事なことを知りました。
いつかまたリベンジできる日があるといいです。

Sea turtle watching, going down to the sea for photo time, returning to the boat once to put on snorkeling gear, and heading back to the sea again. We had plenty of time and really enjoyed it. I had checked the low tide times on the website, so everything was perfect. When we were leaving, the afternoon tour group was arriving, but the sandy beach had already sunk, so I think it's essential to check the tide schedule before booking! We saw a lot of fish, and my husband was very satisfied. I only used a digital camera on the boat and took photos with my iPhone covered. Many people were without cameras on the water, but the scenery is so beautiful that I think it's worth bringing one. You can't press the shutter underwater, but I was able to capture a lot of fish on video. Tips are not forcibly requested; I think a small amount is fine. We were able to return to the hotel by 11:30, so we made good use of our time. I definitely want to recommend this to my friends!
海亀ウォッチング、海へ降りて写真タイム、1度船へ戻りシュノーケリング装着してもう1度海へ。
時間も十分とっていただいており、満喫できました。
サイトで干潮時間も調べていたのでバッチリでした。
帰る時、午後のツアーの方が来られていましたが、もう砂浜は沈んでしまっていたので、申込前に必ず満ち引きを調べた方がいいと思います！
魚もたくさん見れて、旦那も大満足でした。
デジカメは船上だけにして、iPhoneカバーつけて写真撮影しました。
水上ではカメラ無しの方も多かったですが、本当に景色が綺麗なのでぜひ用意した方がいいと思います。
水中はシャッターが押せませんが、ムービーでたくさん魚を撮影できました☆
チップは無理に要求もされません。気持ち程度で大丈夫だと思います。
しっかり11:30にホテルに戻れたので時間も有効活用できました。
ぜひ友人にもおすすめしたいと思います♪

The wonderful views from the sandbar and the sea turtle watch were amazing. The BBQ lunch was a hamburger, but it was a very delicious burger. Above all, encountering sea turtles while snorkeling was the highlight. Swimming with the sea turtles I had longed for was absolutely fantastic. I highly recommend it. The guides were also friendly and likable. Thank you very much.
サンドバーの素晴らしい景色とウミガメウォッチ。BBQランチはハンバーガーでしたがとても美味しいバーガーでした。なにより本格的シュノーケルでウミガメに遭遇。念願のウミガメと泳げたことが最高によかったです。絶対お勧めです。
ガイドの皆さんもフレンドリーで好感がもてます。ありがとうございました。

When we arrived at the port, it was slightly rainy and chilly, and I was a bit worried, but after a few minutes on the boat, the blue sky appeared! We were able to see manta rays, which we usually don't get to see, and I thoroughly enjoyed snorkeling until the very end. I was very satisfied!
港に到着した時は若干小雨で肌寒く、大丈夫かなぁと心配したのですが、いざ船に乗って何分かすると青空に！普段は見られないマンタも見ることができ、シュノーケリングは最後まで楽しみ大満足でした！

The sandbar had great weather and was fantastic.
The tide was about 10 centimeters below my knees, so the beach didn't appear, but I was able to practice snorkeling, which was good.
The hamburger for lunch was incredibly delicious!!
They grilled the patty (probably from Costco) on the boat, and it was juicy and tasty.
I saw a decent amount of fish while snorkeling, and they were keeping a proper watch, so I had no concerns about safety.
サンドバーは天気も良く、最高でした。
潮位はちょうどひざ下10センチくらいだったので砂浜が現れることはなかったのですが、シュノーケリングの練習ができたので良かったです。
お昼のハンバーガーが激うま！！
パティ（多分コストコの）を船上で焼いてくれたのですが、ジューシーで美味しかったです。
シュノーケリングではまあまあお魚も見れたし、きちんと監視してくれてるので安全面にも不安はありませんでした。

Our guide, Clifton, was great. He was knowledgable and very friendly. He was quick with a joke or light comment to keep the hot, sunny day light and fun.
The cultural center was well kept and full of beautiful and informative displays.
We enjoyed the entertainment and the food at the luau and "Ha" was beautiful. The dancing was amazing.
We had dinner as a couple on July 6th. From the appetizers to the soup, main course, and dessert, we thoroughly enjoyed the beautifully crafted dishes and were very satisfied. The menu composition and portion sizes were just right, allowing us to savor each course without feeling overly full, which can often be the case with dinners abroad. The delicate flavors of the appetizers and soup were particularly noteworthy. We definitely want to visit again.
7月6日ディナーを夫婦で利用しました。
前菜からスープ、メインそしてドルチェに至るまで非常に趣向を凝らした料理を満喫でき、
大変満足しました。メニュー構成、分量も丁度よく、ともすれば満腹感だけが印象に残りがちな海外でのディナーですが、最後までゆっくりと味わうことができました。
特に前菜とスープの繊細な味わいは特筆もの。
また是非利用したいと思います。

Best snorkeling and snuba ever!!! Been in this boat three times. Crew is wonderful and so is the lunch!!! Highly recommend.
Great tour guide, food was good (Poke) and something we had never tried before. Wish their was more variety. A visit to the Aloha food truck would have been a bonus. The Hawaiian Plantation Village was a good experience learning about Hawaiian cultural history and the history of how different foods made it to the islands.
The beautiful sea stretched endlessly, and it was so healing ❤️ I was able to see not only sea turtles but also manta rays. Snorkeling with the southern fish was the best! With the crew's accurate advice, I had a wonderful time.
綺麗な海がどこまでも続いていて癒されました❤️
ウミガメはもちろん、マンタにも会えたし
南の魚とのシュノーケリングはサイコーです！
クルーの方の的確なアドバイスのもと、
楽しい時間を過ごせました

This tour has so many highlights. I was impressed when we landed on the sandbar (it was really beautiful!), and I was thrilled to spot a sea turtle popping its head up in a spot filled with them. Snorkeling at the coral reef was also amazing, and above all, the burgers grilled on the boat were the best!
見どころがいっぱいのツアーです。サンドバー（本当にきれい！）に上陸した時も感動したし、ウミガメのたくさんいるスポットで、顔を出したウミガメを発見できて感動。サンゴ礁でのシュノーケリングも最高だったし、何より船の上で焼いてくれるハンバーガーが最高でした。

I chose the shorter option since I was with my 70-year-old mother, but we had a great time! We saw plenty of sea turtles, and the sandbar was truly beautiful!!! I highly recommend this tour.
70歳の母と一緒だったので短い時間のほうにしましたが、十分に楽しめました！
海亀も沢山見れてサンドバーは本当に綺麗！！！
オススメのツアーです。

It was worth checking the low tide times and making a reservation; it was very beautiful. There was a problem at the meeting place, so my rating is average, but other than that, I was very satisfied.
引き潮時間を確認して予約したかいがあり、とても綺麗でした。集合場所でトラブルがあり評価は普通ですが、それ以外は大満足です。

it was my first time went on the dinner cruise since I live in Hawaii for 20 years, I really enjoy the steak and loster dinner, the workers were very friendly and helpful, that made me feel like I was having a family dinner with my family. The manager name Joey especially came serveral times to visit us and made sure everything was okay, we have a great time in Star of Honolulu Sunset Dinner cruise!!!
the sandbar was beautiful as well as the views of the mountains from the water. Our boys loved snorkeling and seeing the sea turtles.
This was my second trip to Hawaii. I wanted to visit the sandbar that I couldn't go to last time, so I made a reservation. The sandbar appeared when the tide went out, and I was able to lie down and relax for a while. Since it was the day before Independence Day, we couldn't drink beer on the beach, but it felt great to enjoy a beer from the back of the boat. We also had a full hour of snorkeling, and it was a great experience to encounter a turtle. Although there was some fatigue from the travel and a bit of waiting time, I think it's an activity I would recommend.
ハワイには二度目の旅行。前回立ち寄れなかったサンドバーに行ってみたいと思い、申し込み。サンドバーは波の引いた時に砂地が顔を出す感じでしたが、寝そべったり、のんびりと時間を過ごせました。独立記念日の前日で祝日対応となり、海でビールを飲めませんでしたが、船尾の突きだしたところからビールが飲めて、それは気持ち良かったです。シュノーケリングも1時間たっぷりあり、カメにも出会えて良い体験になりました。移動や若干の待ち時間などで疲れは出ますが、オススメのアクティビティだと思います。

Departure from the back of the Hyatt Regency. I was first surprised by the large number of people, as the bus was almost full.
Before boarding, there was a restroom break, and we were instructed that we could use either the onboard or the outside facilities. However, it's wise to board early to secure a seat, and there are several opportunities to gather at the front, so sitting towards the front is best.
The sea turtle watching was from the boat, and personally, I got bored quickly, but there were quite a few sea turtles.
The sandbar, depending on the time of year, didn't have sand exposed above the water's surface, but it was a fascinating space. It was difficult to take good photos.
After enjoying the sandbar, we went snorkeling near the nearby reef. With a large group and no fins, it was hard to move around, and since the time was short, I thought it might be nice to skip snorkeling and relax on the sandbar instead (families with children seemed to do that).
Also, from the boat, we could see filming locations like Jurassic Park, which felt like a little bonus.
ハイアットリージェンリーの裏からの出発。大型バスがほぼ満員という人の多さにまずは驚きました。
乗船前にトイレ休憩があり、船内・船外のどちらでも使って良いと指示されますが、早めに乗船して座席を確保するのが吉で、かつ何度か前方に集合する機会があるので、前方がベストです。
ウミガメウォッチングは船上からで個人的にはすぐに飽きてしまいましたが、結構な数のウミガメがいました。
サンドバーは時間帯的に（時季的に？）砂が水面上に出てはいなかったですが、不思議な空間でした。写真を上手く撮るのが難しかったですね。。
シュノーケリングはサンドバーを楽しんだ後に、近くのリーフ横を回ります。大人数ですし、フィンもなかったので動きづらく、さらに時間も短いので、シュノーケリングはパスしてサンドバーの上でゆっくり過ごすのもアリかなと思いました（子供連れの方はそうされていました）。
また、船上から、ジュラシックパーク等の撮影場所もみることができ、少し得した気分です。

I participated in 2009 and found it very interesting, so this time I joined with my mother. Our guide, Ken, was very kind, taking photos for us along the way and providing various explanations, which made it a lot of fun.
Since there were only a few people, we were able to swim and take our time taking photos at Flat Island, which was the best.
On the way back, instead of taking the shuttle bus, we rented bicycles and went snorkeling at Kailua Beach. The ocean was so beautiful, it felt like being in paradise.
The staff were truly kind and attentive. I will participate again.
2009年に参加してとても面白かったので、今度は母と参加しました。
ガイドの健さんがとても親切で、途中で写真を撮ってくれたり、色々説明してくれたり、とても楽しめました。
人数も少なかったので、フラットアイランドで泳いだりゆっくり写真を撮ったりできて最高でした。
帰りは送迎のバスに乗らずに自転車を借りてカイルアビーチでシュノーケリング。
海がとてもキレイで天国にいるみたいでした。
スタッフの方達が本当に親切で至れり尽せりでした。
また参加します。

It was a good decision to check the tide levels and make a reservation before departure. I thought there would be more sand, but I was able to enjoy it up to my ankles. However, since it's a sandbar program, it would have been nice if they could have swapped it out for turtle watching.
出発前に潮位を確認して予約したので正解でした
もっと砂が出ているかとも思ったけど踝ぐらいでたのしめました
てもサンドバーのプログラムなんだからタートルウォッチと入れ換えてもらってもよかったなー

This was my sixth trip to Hawaii. This time, I visited for my niece's wedding, and a friend recommended that I definitely check it out! Elvis, Gaga, Michael Jackson... it was so much fun! The dinner, which even included lobster, was satisfying for the price! I also enjoyed a leisurely stroll through the night streets! I highly recommend it for those who want to relax on Oahu!
６度目のハワイ。今回は姪の結婚式での訪問だったので、友人に「絶対いいよ！」と薦められて観させていただきました。エルビス、ガガ、マイケルジャクソン。。。おもしろかった！楽しかった！ロブスターまであったディナーもあのお値段にしては満足です(^^♪
のんびり散歩しながら夜の街も満喫できました！
オワフ島でのんびりしたい方にはおすすめです！

Positives first...the Show is Amazing! I personally enjoy the show more than any Luau I have attended on Oahu. As a former resident and frequent visitor to HI....this has always been one of my favorite activities to visit and bring friends and family......sorry to say that the late entry does not allow you to do anything but attend the Luau and Show...there is NO time to do or visit the other activites....very disappointing.....not sure the Late Entry should be an option at all...unless....you just want to got to the Luau and Show, and it should be advertised that way.
Great fun. Boat was great. Staff was great. The excursions were superb. So much fun. Will do it again definitely.
We participated as a couple. The staff were very kind, and although I'm not very good at English, I didn't have any trouble. The food and the onboard shows were also very satisfying. However, the vow renewal was a bit underwhelming. During the meal, we were called to the edge of the deck with something like "Come here for a moment," where the captain performed the ceremony, but it didn't have the excitement of a wedding. Well, that might be expected. Still, making our vows with Diamond Head in the background was a wonderful memory. We were told to dress formally, so we both wore aloha shirts, but it seemed like we were in the minority and stood out a bit. The people around us didn't seem to be dressed so formally.
夫婦で参加させて頂きました。
スタッフの方もとても親切で、あまり英語が得意ではありませんが苦労することはなかったです。
お料理や船内のショーなどもとても満足いくものでした。
ただ、バウリニューアルはちょっと微妙でしたかねw
食事中に「ちょっときてー」みたいな感じで外のデッキの端に呼ばれ、船長がセレモニーを行ってくれるのですが、結婚式ほどの高揚感はないですね。まぁ当たり前かもしれませんが。
それでも船の上から見るダイアモンドヘッドをバックに愛を誓えてのはとてもいい思い出となりました。
当日は正装でとのことなので夫婦そろってアロハシャツを決め込んでいきましたが、そんな人は少数派？で若干浮いていました。周りの人はそんなにきっちりしている感じもなかったです。
Thank you very much for boarding the Star of Honolulu.
In Hawaii, the Aloha shirt is considered formal attire, and many people wear it. It's similar to the feeling of wearing traditional clothing in Japan.
We are delighted to hear that you enjoyed the shows and meals.
All of our staff are looking forward to your next visit.

The sandbar is quite far out, yet the water is shallow, creating a mysterious space. The hamburger was delicious. Unfortunately, the snorkeling was disappointing because the water was murky and visibility was not great.
サンドバーはだいぶ沖なのに水深が浅くなっており、不思議な空間でした。ハンバーガーは美味しかったです。シュノーケリングは、水が濁っていてあまり良く見えなかったのが残念でした。

THIS WAS A 3 HR BEACH ADVENTURE WE WENT ON THE GLASS BOTTOM BOAT RIDE AND SAW THE LARGE TURTLE THE GRANDCHILDREN LOVED THE OTHER ACTIVIES ON THE BEACH
We participated as a family with our 0-year-old and 2-year-old children. After departing, we first went turtle watching before heading to the sandbar. The sandbar was perfect, and we were really excited! The water was shallow with almost no waves, so the kids were able to enjoy themselves safely. Unfortunately, the weather was cloudy, which was a bit disappointing.
We were able to fully enjoy the turtles and the sandbar in a short time and returned to the hotel before noon, making it a satisfying tour. The weather is a matter of luck, but I think it would be truly beautiful if it were sunny.
If we can come back to Hawaii, I would like to try again.
For those planning to participate, a waterproof camera is a must. A selfie stick also seemed convenient. Additionally, while you won't need to spend money, tips are separate, so please don't forget to bring some.
0歳、2歳の子供と家族で参加しました。
出港してからまずウミガメウォッチングをしてからサンドバーへ向かいました。
サンドバーもバッチリ出ていて、テンション上がりました！波がほとんどなく浅いので、子供も安心して楽しんでいました。ただ、天気があいにくの曇り空で残念でした。。
短時間でウミガメとサンドバーを満喫して昼前にはホテルに戻れるので、時間も有効に使えて満足のツアーでした。天気は運ですが、晴れてたら本当に綺麗なんだろうなーと思います。
またハワイに来れたらリベンジしたいです。
参加予定の方は防水カメラは必須です。自撮り棒も便利そうでした。あと、お金を使うことはないけど、チップは別なので、持って行くのを忘れないようにしてください。

The singer came up to the audience, and there was a lot of excitement with handshakes and more. I participated in the cocktail show, which included one drink, and I was able to order various cocktails. The venue was easy to see from my seat, which was in a great location, and I had a wonderful time. The photo opportunity after the show was also nice.
シンガーが客席に上がって、握手など大変盛り上がりました。カクテルショーに参加でしたが、ドリンク１パイ付でしたが、いろいろなカクテルを頼めて、ショー会場も見やすく、席もいいところで、大変楽しかったです。ショー後の、記念写真タイムも良かったです。
Thank you very much for visiting us this time. We, the staff, sincerely look forward to your visit again when you come to Hawaii.

The weather was unfortunately rainy and then cloudy, but I’m really glad I participated in this tour! Playing beach volleyball at the sandbar was surprising because the volleyball was really hard (laughs), but it was so much fun with the crew and all the participants! We had the afternoon plan, and while moving to the snorkeling spot, we were all excited to spot a sea turtle from the boat! During snorkeling, we were lucky enough to see sea turtles twice, which was incredibly moving! After lunch, we had about an hour to snorkel freely around the coral reef, where everyone could swim around the vast coral formations or take a break on the boat. Some participants didn’t get to see a sea turtle, so I think it’s all about luck! This was a tour I would definitely recommend to others, and I was very satisfied!
I highly recommend applying sunscreen, as the difference between the areas where I applied it and where I didn’t is too extreme!
お天気は生憎の雨のち曇り的な感じでしたが、それでも参加してほんと良かったなぁ〜（≧∇≦）と思えるツアーでした！サンドバーでのビーチバレーはバレーボールがとっても固くてびっくりしましたが（笑）、クルーのお兄さんたちや参加者みんなでワイワイとってもとっても楽しかったです♪私たちは午後プランだったのですが、シュノーケリングの場所へ移動中船上から海ガメをみんなでキャーキャーいいながら発見できて感激☆シュノーケリング中もなんと2回も海ガメを見ることができて超感動でした♡ランチ後、サンゴ礁の周りを１時間ほど自由にシュノーケリングできるのですが、広範囲のサンゴ礁の群れの周りをみんな自由に泳いだり船上で休憩したりできる感じで、海ガメを見れかったという参加者の方もおられたのでこれはもう運だと思います！ぜひ人にも進めたい大満足のツアーでした(*^^*)
日焼け止め塗った場所と塗らなかった場所の差が激しすぎて、日焼け止めを塗ることをお勧めします！
