I would like to thank our hawaii activities director ... We thought we had made reservations for Tuesday, June 8, but it turned out that I had made the reservation for Monday, June 7. They came to pick us up at our hotel on Monday, and we weren't ready. I couldn't believe that I had made such a mistake ... I thought I had been really careful to make sure that something like that hadn't happened ... but, I DID make the mistake. The Oahu Cruise people were very understanding, and told me that they would just pick us up on Tuesday. I then called our hawaii activities director and told her about the mistake I had made. She said that there was not a problem, no extra fee, and that she would reschedule me for Tuesday, and fax me a new voucher to our hotel. Talk about service! She was GREAT! The voucher was at our hotel in minutes!

Also, I need to say that this cruise is EXCELLENT! The food was EXCELLENT, and the entertainment was WONDERFUL!

Thanks for everything! We had a GREAT

The staff is friendly, and I was impressed by the beauty of the sandbar! I was lucky to see manta rays and sea turtles as well. I want to participate again!

スタッフがフレンドリーだし
サンドバーの美しさに感動!
運良くマンタ、海ガメも見れてラッキー☆
また参加したい程です。

The food and entertainment was great.

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!!

午前のツアーに参加しました。
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。
出ていないのが不思議なくらいきれいにサンドバーを見ることが出来ました。
ただ、歩くとちょっと痛い…。
でも、きれいな景色にうっとりです。

ウミガメも見ることが出来て大満喫でした。

スタッフもとてもイイの方たちで、とても楽しかったです。

おすすめです！！

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。

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ｸﾞ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ﾊﾞｸﾊﾞｸ食べてました！

人見知りでﾋﾞﾋﾞﾘの娘も１番思い出に残ってるようです（＾＾）
ｼﾞｮｰさん？！
ﾊｲﾃﾝｼｮﾝで本当のおもしろかったです♪
あのあとﾜｲｷｷで見かけたので呼んだのですが気づかれず・・・（Ｔ▽Ｔ）
誰かに向かい走ってました(笑）
絶対に絶対にまた参加したいです！

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！
お世話になりました★

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。

This was a very enjoyable cruise of Oahu's sunset. We enjoyed the food and entertainment. My husband and I saw flying fish which to us was icing on the cake. The sunset was amazing to watch and the staff was extremely nice and helpful. The waiter showed us tricks on disassembling our lobster, which was nice, I didn't want to make a mess. I think the Navatek is the best because of the smoothness and to be able to go into open waters and still remain smooth. This is a wonderful cruise and a great way to end an evening.

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。

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！

I was so happy to encounter so many sea turtles that I was told, "You're lucky!" The meals on the boat were also very delicious, and the staff were all very entertaining and fun!

ラッキーですね！って言われるくらい海亀にたくさん出会えて嬉しかったです。
船での食事もとっても美味しかったし、スタッフの皆さんもとっても面白くて楽しかったです！

I definitely think you should go. It was very beautiful. The barbecue was also very delicious, and I tried Hawaiian donuts for the first time, which were really tasty.

絶対に行ったほうがいいと思います。
とても綺麗でした。
バーベキューもとても美味しく、またハワイのドーナツも初めて食べましたが、とても美味しかったです。

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。

This is the second time we took Capt Bob's cruise, and it was as much fun as the first. The staff is always lots of fun and playful and really care about the customers. They always make sure you have a good time and there is lots to see and do. If you don't want to snorkel, you are welcome to sun bathe on the catamaran, no one forces you to do anything.
The staff answers all questions and it's a very fun afternoon adventure.

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！！！　

Um... yeah. this was an AMAZING way to start our Oahu vacation. We went as a couple doing the regular package. The food was good- no real complaints there. and you get one drink (that was pretty weak). and there is entertainment. all as one would expect...

but the best part of it was the SUNSET!! Even though it was a little chilly, it was incredibly romantic and we got some nice photos

And we SAW HUMPBACK WHALES!!! about 12-15 of them to be exact. Lots of tail flukes and 4 spy-hopping. We were probably the only couple that saw that many because we ate dinner and then decided to for-go the cheesy entertainment with all the ...tourists, and go up on the deck to make sure we didn't miss the sunset. When we went back in, we were surprised how many people didn't go on the deck, and didn't see ANY whales!!

TIPS: Arrive early to get a dinner table by the window. Don't waste your time with the cheesy entertainment, the sunset is what makes this trip worth it (and whales!!). Also, get

We took myself and three visitors from Japan. Yesterday PM trip. The ride on the catamaran was so smooth both coming and going. The capt did a great job! and the two mancrew.
He had so much patients steering the cat looking for whales. I tho't we would be disappointed, but he did not disappoint us. He finnaly found a mother and her pup. This was about an hour and half into our trip.
My cousin who asked for the trip was very happy. I don't know what she expected to see, but the whale did come up. she was satisfied. She may come back again next year. I know the whales don't leave until April. How will it be about this time next year? Would it have been if the trip were a little later?
By the way I have friends coming next week from Japan. How are the prospects. I can suggest your whale charter.
the capt. brought us back to Kewalo right on schedule.

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！

I went with three other girl friends on this breakfast cruise. The crew was friendly and fun. They made you feel welcomed instantly and made you feel cared for.
The cruise was smooth we were able to see whales and the Captain went out of our regular route to see more of the whales. It was a fun, relaxing, cruise - I would highly recommend it to anyone who has never been or who just wants to go out again!

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。

My family and i had an amazing time on this trip. The crew is amazing and very welcoming and easy to get along with. Playing water volleyball was interesting but very very fun! I would recomend this tour to anybody who wants to have fun and who wants to see some cool fish.

We went on the Dinner Cruise for our anniversary and it was so enjoyable. They had some great entertainment (singer and dancers). The food was wonderful as well. But to top of our evening we were able to spot some dolphins swimming and jumping along side the boat. Could not have had a better experience and would definitely do this again.

On our first trip to Hawaii, we found a plan that allowed us to enjoy the beautiful ocean, snorkeling, and sea turtles. On the day we participated, there was a Japanese guide who was very friendly. The crew was also cheerful, making for an exciting sailing experience.

The sandbar was incredibly beautiful, even more so than in photos, and playing volleyball there was the best. Although we didn't speak any English, it was true that "expressions speak louder than words."

There seem to be mixed opinions about the lunch, but the freshly grilled patties in burgers on the boat were fantastic for us. Unfortunately, we didn't encounter any sea turtles while snorkeling, but it was still very appealing, even though it was a bit cold.

Overall, we were extremely satisfied with this activity in terms of price, staff, and content. We were even generous with the tips (laughs). Thank you very much!

初ハワイで、綺麗な海、シュノーケリング、海ガメのを堪能できるプランは・・・と探して決定しました。私たちが参加した日は日本人ガイドさんもいらっしゃって非常に親しみやすかったです。クルーも陽気なメンバーでわくわくするセーリングです。
サンドバーは写真では伝え切れないくらい綺麗ですし、そんなサンドバーにネットを立てて行うバレーボールも最高でした。英語全くな私たちでしたが『表情は言葉以上にものを語る』ですね。
お昼については賛否両論があるようですが、船の上で焼きたてのパテをパンに挟んだハンバーガーは私たちにとってはサイコーでした。
残念ながらシュノーケリングでは海がめには遭遇できませんでしたが、それでも十分に魅力的でした。少し寒かったですが。
トータルで見てこちらのアクティビティは価格面、スタッフ、内容すべてにおいて大満足でした。チップ奮発してまうほどです（笑）
ありがとうございました。

I have been to Hawaii many times, but this was my first experience at a sandbar. Even though it's offshore, the sand made from crushed coral allows you to stand. It's surprising that not only can you stand, but it feels like just the tips of your feet are in the water. Standing in the middle of the ocean is astonishing. I think you may have seen it in TV commercials. Experiencing it in person was incredibly moving. I had fun playing beach volleyball with foreign staff and guests near the sandbar. Since I was the only Japanese participant, I hope more shy Japanese people will join in. We spent 45 minutes on the sandbar. While moving by boat to the snorkeling spot, I saw many green sea turtles coming up to the surface to breathe. It's reassuring that the staff swims with you during snorkeling. A lot of fish came to the bait, making for a fun time. It seems that even first-time snorkelers can enjoy it.

ハワイは何十回も行っていますが、サンドバーへ行ったのは初めての体験でした。サンゴが波で砕けてできた砂が積って居るのは沖合なのに足が立ちます。足が立つどころか足の先だけが海中にある感じで驚きます。海のど真ん中に立っているのは驚きです。テレビのＣＭとかで見たことあると思います。実際に体験するとそれはスゴイ感動モノでした。サンドバーのそばで外国人スタッフの人と海外からのお客さんと一緒にビーチバレーをして楽しみました。日本人はわたし一人だけの参加だったので、引っ込み思案な日本の人たちも参加してほしいなあと思いました。サンドバーでは４５分間上陸していました。シュノーケルする場所へ船で移動してるときは、ミドリウミガメが水面にいっぱい顔を出して息継ぎしている姿がドンドン見れました。シュノーケルの時にはスタッフも一緒に泳いでいるので安心です。餌に魚がイッパイ寄ってきて楽しい時間でした。シュノーケル初体験者も楽しめるようですよ。

I participated in the sandbar for the first time. It takes about 30 minutes by bus from the Waikiki hotel to the Kaneohe pier. After getting off the bus, I transferred to a boat to go. The foreign male staff on the bus shared interesting stories, so I wasn't bored. While on the boat to the sandbar, the staff sang songs for us. There were many foreign participants, but there were also Japanese female staff who provided explanations in Japanese, which was reassuring. When we boarded the boat and saw Chinaman's Hat, we arrived at the sandbar. This time, the water depth was about 20 centimeters. It was fun to play volleyball in the middle of the ocean. For those who were snorkeling for the first time, they allowed practice there. After that, we returned to the boat for lunch. The hamburger for lunch was very delicious. Drinks were also free and unlimited. After that, we moved by boat to another snorkeling spot. During the transfer, we were able to see many turtles, which was enjoyable. When snorkeling, feeding the fish attracted a lot of them, and I was able to swim happily over the coral.

サンドバーに初めて参加しました。
ワイキキホテルからバスでカネオヘの桟橋まで30分ぐらいで到着します。バスを降りて桟橋から船に乗り換えて行きました。バスの中でも外国人男性のスタッフが面白い話をしてくれて退屈しません。船でサンドバーに行く間もスタッフが歌を歌ってくれます。外国人の参加が多いですが日本人女性のスタッフもいますから日本語説明してくれますので安心です。船に乗ってチャイナマンズハットが見えてくるとサンドバーに到着しました。今回は20センチくらいの水深でした。
海の真ん中でバレーボールをしたりと手も楽しいです。
シュノーケルが初めての人はそこで練習もさせてくれます。
その後船に戻ってランチが始まります。
ランチのハンバーガーはとても美味しかったです。
ドリンクも無料で飲み放題でした。
その後またシュノーケルをする場所まで船で移動しました。
移動のときも亀をたくさん見ることができて楽しかったです。シュノーケルは、餌をやるといっぱい魚が寄ってきてサンゴの上を楽しく泳ぐことができました。

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！

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。

I circled around Oahu, and the sandbar was the most beautiful and left the biggest impression on me. There were about 20 participants, and among them, there were 7 Japanese, including us, and there was also a Japanese staff member, which made me feel very secure.

Standing in the shallow waters in the middle of the ocean was a surreal sight, and enjoying beer and BBQ while looking at the scenery of the sea transitioning from transparent to a light turquoise blue was pure happiness. We also played beach volleyball with a net set up, and I was able to have fun interacting with foreign participants despite the language barrier.

Photos taken from any angle and of any person turned out beautifully. Moreover, it wasn't just that; we also had opportunities for sea turtle watching and snorkeling, making it an absolutely perfect tour. I highly recommend it!

オアフ島を１周したのですが、サンドバーはその中でも１番きれいで１番印象に残りました。参加者は２０名程でそのうち日本人は私たちを含めて７名、日本人のスタッフもいてとても安心しました。
海の真ん中に浅瀬が浮かびそこに自分が立っている不思議な光景と、海は透明から淡いターコイズブルーへと広がるその景色を見ながらのビールとバーべＱは幸せすぎました。またネットが張られビーチバレーをしました。言葉が通じない外国の方とも楽しく交流もできました。写真はどの角度からでも、どんな人でも絵になります。また、それだけではなく海がめ観察やシュノーケリングなど、まさに至れり尽くせりの最高のツアーでした。絶対お勧めです。
