It's a very enjoyable plan if you're with someone. However, I've heard that the sand mountain only appears 2-3 days a year. But the freshly grilled hamburgers were delicious, and it became a great memory.
連れと一緒ならとても楽しいプランです。
ただ、ほんとに砂山が出現は年に2-3日とのこと。

I was able to see dolphins up close. I had my photo taken, but there were people who had many photos for the same price and others who did not, so it would be nice if that could be improved. I thought the staff were cheerful and kind, which made it enjoyable.
イルカを近くで見ることができました。
写真を撮って頂きましたが、同じ金額で沢山写ってる人と、そうでない人といるし、他の人の写真ばかりのUSBを買っても、ちょっと困りますのでその辺は改善していただきたいと思います。

It was a very fulfilling tour that lasted only in the morning. The sandbar was incredibly beautiful and felt like a different world. Since we could return to Waikiki by lunchtime, we were able to make good use of our time. It's okay to get on the bus in wet clothes, but it was still cold. I wish I had changed in the restroom before getting on.
午前中のみで、とても中身の濃いツアーでした。
サンドバーはとてもキレイで別世界。

Kailua Beach and Lanikai Beach are both stunning beaches.
Hotel → Shuttle bus → Shop for beach guidance and snorkeling rental → About a 5-minute walk to the beach.
The staff provides thorough explanations.
Kailua Beach
It's a beach where just lying on the sand feels great.
Coral is only found in some areas.
Since there are waves, boogie boarding is recommended.
I saw some people kite surfing.
Lanikai Beach
It's about a 10-minute walk from Kailua Beach, with a slight uphill.
You access the beach through a residential alley from the road where cars drive.
The two islands are impressive, making it a beach with a fantastic view.
The pizza for lunch is huge.
Fins can be rented for an additional fee.
カイルアビーチとラニカイビーチ、ともに絶景のビーチです。
ホテル→バスで送迎→ショップでビーチの案内・シュノーケルレンタル→ビーチまで5分くらい徒歩

カイルアビーチ
砂浜に寝転がっているだけで気持ちがいいビーチです。
珊瑚があるのは一部の場所のみです。
波があるので、ブギーボードがおすすめです。
カイトサーフィンをしている方がいました。
ラニカイビーチ
カイルアビーチから10分くらいで歩いて行けます。少し坂道あります。
車が走る道路から、住宅の路地を抜けてビーチへ。
2つの島が印象的で、眺めて最高のビーチです。

Great day on the secret beach. Although there are only a few kayaks & SUP's, the 8 of us had plenty of time on them. Beach chairs provided and we took picnic. The area to use equipment is blocked off and is a tad smaller than we would have liked. Also the area is over a reef so if you fall in the water be careful. Enjoy

We participated in this tour because we really wanted to see wild dolphins on our honeymoon.
The meeting time was at 5:55 AM, but around 5:20 AM, a Japanese female staff member called our hotel room for a morning call. During that call, she informed us that we needed to wear swimsuits and that if we wanted to rent a wetsuit, it would cost $5 per person, so we needed to have cash on hand.
The participants on the bus were mostly Japanese, with about 20 people in total. Inside the bus, the Japanese staff explained the precautions and how to use the snorkel, which made us feel at ease. They also recommended that those who are prone to motion sickness take medication on the bus. Motion sickness wristbands were available for sale on the bus for $20, but I didn’t buy one. By the way, I got quite seasick during the parasailing the day before, but I didn’t feel sick at all during this dolphin tour.
Finally, we boarded the boat and cruised to the point where the dolphins were located. There were four staff members on board, and they were all very enthusiastic, chatting with us in English, which created a fun atmosphere throughout. Then we finally spotted the dolphins and dove into the sea with our snorkels! We swam close to the dolphins, and there were so many swimming just below me!! Both my husband and I were thrilled to see them up close. Please make sure to bring an underwater camera. I highly recommend participating in this tour.
ハネムーンで、野生のイルカをどうしても見たくて主人と二人で参加しました。
朝5時55分の集合でしたが、5時20分頃に、ホテルの部屋まで日本人の女性のスタッフの方からモーニングコールがありました。その際に水着着用のことと、水中は寒い為、ウエットスーツをレンタルする場合には、一人$5必要な為、現金が必要な旨連絡がありました。
到着したバスの参加者はほぼ日本人で、20名くらいがいたと思います。
バスの中で、日本人スタッフの方から注意事項やシュノーケルの使い方など説明があり安心できました。また酔いやすい方は、バスの中で薬を飲むことをお勧めします。バスでは酔い止めのリストバンドも売られていましたが、$20のため、私は買いませんでした。ちなみに前日参加したパラセイリングではかなり酔ってしまったのですが、このイルカツアーは全く酔わなかったです。
いよいよ船に乗り、イルカがいるポイントまでクルーズをします。スタッフの方4名いたのですが、皆さんテンションが高く英語で色々と話しかけてくれる為、終始楽しい雰囲気でした。そしていよいよイルカを発見し、シュノーケルをつけて海にダイブします!そしてイルカの近くまでみんなで泳いでいきました。するとそこにはたくさんのイルカたちが私のすぐ下を泳いでいました!!
こんなに間近で見ることができ、主人も私も感激しています。水中カメラは絶対に持参してください。
ぜひ参加をお勧めします。

Although the weather was unfortunately cloudy throughout the day and not sunny, the beauty of the sandbar's sea was highlighted when blue skies and light occasionally peeked through the clouds.
Since it wasn't low tide, the white sandy beach didn't rise above the water's surface, but we still enjoyed the stunning emerald green sea.
While snorkeling, we swam with many fish and encountered four sea turtles. There were even turtles swimming right next to us, which really got us excited when they came close!
The BBQ on the boat featured hamburgers, which were very delicious. The staff prepared them on the spot, adding cheese and other toppings, and they provided the service in a fun and engaging manner, making it enjoyable.
If I had one complaint, it would be that the guide staff during the transfer made some belittling jokes about Japanese people, which was off-putting. However, the other staff members were very friendly and great.
終始曇り空であいにくの天気で晴天というわけではなかったが、時々雲の切れ間からの青空と光が差し込むと、サンドバーの海の綺麗さが引き立って綺麗でした。
干潮ではなかったので、白い砂浜が水面に上がることはなかったが、エメラルドグリーンの海の綺麗さだけでも十分楽しめました。
シュノーケリングでは、たくさんのお魚と一緒に泳げ、ウミガメにも4匹遭遇できました。
人間のすぐ横で泳ぐ亀もいて近くに来た時はテンション上がりまくり!
船上でのBBQはハンバーガー。とっても美味しかったです。
スタッフがその場でチーズ等具材を挟んで提供してくれるのですが、事務的でなく遊びを交えて提供してくれ、楽しませてくれました。
1つ不満をあげるとすると、送迎の際のガイドスタッフが日本人を小馬鹿にしたジョークで蔑んでる感じを受け気を悪くしました。
その方以外のスタッフはとてもフレンドリーで良かったです。

There are various sandbar tours, but it seems this cruiser is the most wonderful one after seeing different boats at the port. It's decided!
Also, the staff were all very fun and lovely. The best.

Let's have a hamburger lunch, not just in the morning! It's delicious.
Even if it's cold, definitely try snorkeling!
I recommend asking the female staff to take photos. They will have you pose in various ways, but they take beautiful pictures! It's a bit embarrassing, though.
Anyway, I highly recommend this tour!

One of the activities I absolutely wanted to experience on my trip to Hawaii was dolphin swimming. Since I chose the early morning plan, the meeting time was before 6 AM! I booked it for the latter part of the trip when the effects of jet lag were less, and going to bed early the night before seemed to pay off, as my husband and I, who are usually not morning people, managed to wake up properly. (Maybe we woke up because we were so excited?)
A large bus came to pick us up, and despite the early hour, the staff greeted us cheerfully. After the English explanation on the bus, they kindly provided a detailed explanation in Japanese, which was reassuring.
There were about 20 people that day, roughly half of the maximum of 40. Upon arriving at the port, we were finally ready to set sail! Unfortunately, it seemed there were no dolphins at the first point we headed to, so we had to move to a different location. As a result, the travel time by boat was longer than usual, which meant our snorkeling time was shorter.
When we arrived at the next point, we finally dove into the sea! After swimming for a while, when we turned to the staff's signal… there were so many dolphins!! We could clearly see them swimming right beneath us. We also saw many dolphins during our second dive.
Although the snorkeling time was indeed a bit shorter, we were able to enjoy seeing fish and sea turtles. The boat ride took longer, but it seemed that no one got seasick, and during the travel time, the staff shared various stories and even performed hula, which kept us entertained throughout the tour.
On the way back, I think all the participants were fast asleep! It was just what we needed to recharge a bit.
ハワイ旅行で絶対に体験したいアクティビティのひとつがドルフィンスイムでした。
朝イチのプランを選択したため、集合時間は6時前!時差ボケの影響が少ない旅の後半の日程に予約して、前日早めに寝たのが功を奏したのか、朝は比較的弱い夫婦ですがきちんと起きることができました。(楽しみだったから否応なしに目が覚めたのかも?)
大きなバスのお迎えが来て、早朝にもかかわらずスタッフの方も明るく出迎えていただきました。バスの中で英語での説明が終わった後日本語でも丁寧に説明してくださり、安心でした。
この日は20人ほどで、MAX40人の約半分。
港に到着し、いよいよ出港!最初に向かったポイントでは残念ながらイルカがいなかったようで、急遽違うポイントへ移動することに。そのため普段よりもボートでの移動時間が長くなり、その分シュノーケルの時間が短くなってしまいますと説明がありました。
次のポイントに到着し、ようやく海へダイブ!しばらく泳いでスタッフの方の合図でそちらのほうを向くと…たくさんのイルカが!!自分たちの下を横切っていくのがばっちり見えました。
2回目のダイブでも、たくさんのイルカが見れました。
その後のシュノーケル時間はやはり少し短かったようですが、魚やウミガメも見れて楽しめました。
ボートでの移動時間は長くなりましたが、船酔いするような人はいなかったようですし、移動の間もいろいろなお話をしてくださったり、フラを披露していただいたりと、ツアー中ずっと飽きずに楽しむことができてよかったです。
帰りのバスはたぶん参加者全員爆睡!ちょうど少し疲れもとることができよかったです。

SANDBAR: The sandbar was a surreal experience. It was beautiful to be finally here, but like the beautiful breasts of Italian marble, there is not much one can do with the simplicity of this place, except enjoy the view.

Fantastic place to swim, snorkel and meet the locals. If you do not have your own snorkel equipment, need a ride to and from this area and a good lunch, then this is a decent deal. However, I had my own equipment and in hindsight I wished I had rented a car (same cost) for travel to Kailua Beach. The beach is free, could have stayed till sunset (instead of 2:30 pm), explore the nightlife, and dined here instead of my expensive tourist trap in Waikiki. Learn from my experience, but come here for a great beach experience.

I understand that the weather can be unpredictable, so I'll write this with that in mind. Please keep that in consideration as you read.
At the sea turtle observation point, we were guided with a typical foreigner’s vibe. You can take it as fun or annoying.
At the sandbar location, we were dropped off in water that reached our waists, and we had to walk through water that came up to our ankles. It was very cold since the sun wasn't out. In the distance, there were other tours, and I could see the sandbar that I really wanted to see. I thought, why not just go there? But I suspect there are territorial boundaries in place. However, for us participants who paid a lot of money and have limited time, that doesn’t matter. If the sandbar was visible, I wish they had mentioned it.
From start to finish, it felt like a tour that was just taking advantage of Japanese people. That said, this might be something that can be said globally...
天候に左右されるのは承知の上で書きます。
読者側もそれを踏まえてお読み下さい。
ウミガメ観測地点では、適当な外人特有のノリで誘導されます。面白いととるか、ウザいととるか。
サンドバー地点では、今回は水面が腰まであるところで降ろされ、水面がくるぶしのところまで歩かされました。
太陽が出てなかったので非常に寒かったです。
遠方には違うツアーなのか、いかにも見たかったサンドバーが散見されました。
それならばそこまで行けば良いのでは?と思うのですが、おそらく縄張りがあるのではと思います。
しかし、高いお金を払って滞在時間が限られている我々参加者にとっては、そんなの知ったことではありません。
サンドバーが見えているのであれば言ってほしかったです。
最初から最後まで、日本人をカモにしているとしか思えないツアーでした。
とは言いつつ、これは世界的に言えることかもしれませんが。。
Thank you very much for participating in our tour. However, we sincerely apologize for not being able to provide a service that meets your expectations.
Hawaii is warm throughout the year, but we understand that on the day of your tour, the sun was not out, which may have made the water feel cold and caused some participants to feel chilly. We hope you understand that we strive to bring the tour as close as possible to the best locations by boat, with the intention of ensuring everyone enjoys the experience.
Regarding the sandbar, please note that the location where boats can dock is determined by the tour company, and the water levels change daily, which can affect visibility. We appreciate your understanding in this matter.

I participated in a plan that included lunch. At the sandbar, the guide started a volleyball game, so I was able to have fun with others. It was cold after getting out of the water from snorkeling, so it was a good decision to bring a change of clothes. Those who got on the bus in their swimsuits looked quite cold. On the boat, they also served warm drinks.

I returned wearing my swimsuit with a towel draped over me, but I got really cold on the bus. There are no lockers or changing rooms, so it's better to bring extra towels. They were disposing of leftover snacks during the light meal. I wish they had waited until the participants got off. The water level was about knee-deep. It seems the sandbar is around October 10, so those who got to experience it are lucky. The staff were great at getting everyone excited, and there were no issues with their service. Swimming in a line while snorkeling with a large group is challenging, but I saw a lot of cute little fish!

The shuttle bus picked us up at our accommodation, Hyatt Regency Waikiki, so the whole family participated. We signed up thinking, "Half a day on a boat sounds nice," but it was amazing!!
After leaving the harbor, we headed to the "sandbar," about 15 minutes offshore, with white sand (from coral) and a water depth of around 20 cm, covering an area of about 200 square meters. Since it's located offshore, it was a wonderful and unique experience to "walk on the sea," and our family was very satisfied!
We relaxed for about an hour before returning to the boat for a hamburger lunch while moving to the snorkeling point. During that time, we spotted a turtle—lucky us! And then, a seal?! It seems it got lost in this coral lagoon (according to YUKIKO, a Japanese staff member who has been there for 8 years, this was her first time seeing one). While snorkeling, we enjoyed the view of the mountains where Jurassic Park was filmed on our left. With life jackets provided, it was easy and comfortable. Unlike the shallow sandbar we visited earlier, the snorkeling point had a coral reef with a depth of about 5 to 10 meters surrounding an area of about 200 meters. Because of that depth, we were lucky to spot another turtle here!
It was a more enjoyable time than we expected. I highly recommend it to everyone!
送迎バスが、宿泊のハイアットリージェンシーワイキキに当たっれいたので、家族で参加。
「半日、船でゆっくりでいいかな」くらいで申し込んだのですが、最高でした!!
港を出て、15分ほど沖の「サンドバー」、水深20cm程の白砂(サンゴから)の200m四方ほど、海岸から沖にあるので、「海の上を歩く」という不思議な素敵な体験、家族して満足!
1時間ほどゆっくりして船にもどり、ハンバーガーの昼食をとりながら、シュノーケリングポイントへ移動。その間に、亀発見、ラッキー!さらにアザラシ?!どうもこのサンゴのラグーンに迷い込んだようです(日本人スタッフのYUKIKOさんの8年いて初めてとのこと)。左手にジュラシックパーク撮影の山を見ながら、シュノーケリング。ライフジャケットがあるので、楽ちん。周囲に浅瀬が取り巻く先ほどの「サンドバー」とへ違い、シュノーケリングポイントの周囲200mほどのサンゴ群の外周は5~10m深さ。その深さゆえ、ラッキーにもここでも「亀」発見!
期待以上に楽しい時間でした。ぜひ皆さん、どうぞ。
