We participated as a family, and we were the only Japanese people there. When I conveyed that I wasn't very good at English in broken phrases, the captain said, "No problem." Anyway, all four crew members worked hard, were attentive to the guests, and were very friendly, which felt great. The sky, which was cloudy in the morning, cleared up, and we were able to see dolphins, sea turtles, and a family of sea lions.
For snorkeling, they provided life jackets, so I felt safe and enjoyed it. However, after swimming, it gets very cold when the sea breeze hits you, so I think it's better to bring a towel (and a jacket) with you.
It became a wonderful memory.
家族で参加しましたが、日本人は私達だけ。あんまり英語が得意じゃないと、カタコトで伝えると、船長さんは、ノープロブレムと言ってくれました。とにかく4人のクルーがみんなよく働くし、お客さんのことも気にかけてくれて愛想がよく、気持ちがよかったです。朝は曇っていた空も晴れてきて、イルカやウミガメ、オットセイの親子も見られました。
シュノーケリングも、ライフジャケットを貸してくれるので安心して楽しめました。ただ泳いだあとは、海風に当たるととても寒いので、しっかりタオルを(上着も)持っていったほうがいいと思います。
いい思い出になりました。

This is one of the most memorable experiences that we've during our recent trip! The staff as so accommodating from the very beginning of our cruise to the end. We were in such a beautiful location to relax and just have fun and really appreciate Hawaii. There were many snacks, water and other drinks that came with our package. Another great thing is that we could bring our own alcoholic beverages. We saw at least 3 turtles and other beautiful fishes in the ocean. The lift vests were comfortable and we were guided by the staff while swimming out during snorkeling. We would do this again!

I used a plan that included transportation from the hotel in Waikiki to the site. The bus driver was kind and introduced us to good shops for souvenirs and delicious local restaurants along the way. The explanations were in English, but he mixed in a little Japanese, so I could somewhat understand the content.
During snorkeling, I was able to see swimming sea turtles multiple times, and they were very cute. I also saw many colorful fish.
I could use the SUP for free, and I was able to stand on the board and paddle. On the boat, soft drinks and snacks are provided for free, so I never had to worry about being thirsty.

バスのドライバーは親切で、道中、土産を購入するのにお得な店や現地の美味しいレストランの紹介をしてくれました。英語での説明ですが、少しだけ日本語を混ぜて説明してくれるので、何となく内容は伝わりました。
シュノーケルでは、泳いでいるウミガメを何度も見ることができ、とてもかわいかった。色鮮やかな魚もたくさん見ることができました。

First of all the bus that picked us up was old and need some works done. A 45 minute drive turned into a 11/2 hour drive. We picked the sand bar as my husband and I both can’t swim. I was pleased that we got to do some snorkeling together. We did see some turtles as well.
Then it was the deeper sea snorkeling. I was so afraid of the deep sea. So we ended up waiting in the boat for over an hour.
There are actually a few coaches on the boat. If they would Guide us through that would be a lot easier.
We just felt left out from the whole group.

We participated as a couple. We took a shuttle bus to the port and transferred to a boat to the sandbar. The scenery was truly breathtaking. We were blessed with good weather and enjoyed snorkeling and paddleboarding. During snorkeling, we were able to see fish playing around the corals and even spotted a sea turtle up close, which was moving. On the boat while it was anchored, there were plenty of snacks, apples, and drinks, so we didn't have to worry about getting hungry. The staff were all very friendly, which made the tour even more enjoyable. However, this tour had mostly Japanese participants (there were also people from Taiwan and Korea), but the explanations about how to spend time in the sea and safety instructions were only in English. After the English explanation, they asked those who didn't understand to raise their hands, and a Japanese staff member provided explanations in Japanese as a service. On another optional tour, they always provided explanations in Japanese along with the English ones, so that was a bit disappointing. Overall, it was really fun to experience a different side of Hawaii than Honolulu. I definitely recommend participating when you go to Hawaii.

I used this service for my honeymoon in late September. We quickly arrived at the sandbar by boat from the port. During the boat ride, the staff provided explanations. The main language was English, but they also kindly explained in Japanese, which made me feel very reassured. (There were probably about three Japanese couples participating.)
I checked the tide levels before making the reservation, but fortunately, the sky was clear, and the water depth at the sandbar was just right. First, we put on life jackets and swam in relatively deep, beautiful coral reefs. We were able to see sleeping sea turtles, the staff attracted fish for us, and we even got to touch starfish. My wife, who can't swim, was able to enjoy herself without worry. The sea was, of course, beautiful.
After returning to the shallow area, we were able to take wonderful pictures with stunning views. When we got back to the boat, they had coffee, juice, snacks, and apples prepared, so we could take a break if we got tired. The staff were all smiling and supported us in having a great time. It became a lifelong memory. I definitely want to participate again when I come back to Hawaii!!!
Thank you, everyone! One piece of advice: the round-trip bus has very strong air conditioning, so it might be good to have something to wear over your shoulders!

I joined a sandbar tour because I wanted to see the beautiful ocean. When the English guidance started, I was a bit worried, but they kindly explained everything again in Japanese. Finally, we arrived at the sandbar. It seemed like everyone was good at swimming, as it naturally led to snorkeling, and we all went into the water in our swimsuits. Since neither my husband nor I can swim, we waited in the shallow area of the sandbar, and the instructor brought a float for us to hold onto while pulling us towards the deeper water. Looking into the ocean, we saw so many beautiful fish swimming around, and a large turtle swam right underneath us. It was a truly magical experience. I am grateful to the instructor who gently guided us through the stunning ocean, making it the best memory of our 10-day trip to Hawaii.
素敵な海を見たくて参加したサンドバーのツアー。英語でのガイダンスが始まった時はどうしようかと思いましたが、ちゃんと日本語でも改めて説明してくれました。そしていよいよサンドバーに到着。皆さん泳ぎは得意なのか、当然のようにシュノーケリングをする流れになり、水着で海の中に。私たち夫婦は2人とも泳げないことから、サンドバーの浅瀬で待っていると、インストラクターの方が浮棒を持ってきて、掴まりながら深い海の方まで引っ張っていただきました。海の中を覗くと、とても綺麗な魚がたくさん泳いでいて、そして、大きな亀が真下を横切る。とても幻想的な時間が流れました。期待以上の美しい海の中を、優しく案内していただいたインストラクターの方に感謝。10日間のハワイ旅行の中で一番の思い出になりました。

My wife and I participated together. We checked the tide level of the sandbar in advance and chose a day with relatively shallow tides to plan our trip and tour schedule. The tide level when we participated was about 60 cm, allowing us to enjoy the atmosphere of the sandbar. Whether walking or swimming, it takes about 5 minutes to reach the sandbar area. Outside the sandbar area, the water gets deeper, and there are corals, where we went snorkeling. We encountered many beautiful fish and sea turtles. It was very moving to see a large sea turtle sleeping on the seabed and three smaller sea turtles swimming together. We were very satisfied and were able to fully enjoy ourselves for over an hour. The only downside was that the water was a bit murky.
We brought our own snorkels and fins. The tour provided snorkels, but it seemed they did not have fins available, as other participants were not using them. If you want to enjoy snorkeling seriously, I think it's best to check in advance whether they can provide fins.
The staff were all able to speak Japanese, and they were kind, cheerful, and very good.
妻と2人で参加しました。事前にサンドバーの潮位を確認して、比較的潮位が浅い日を選んで旅行とツアーの日程を決めました。参加したときの潮位は60cmくらいで、サンドバーの雰囲気を味わうことができました。ボートを降りて、歩いての移動でも、泳ぎながらの移動でも、5分くらいでサンドバーのエリアが終わります。サンドバーのエリアの外側は、深くなっていて、珊瑚もあり、この深いエリアでシュノーケリングをします。たくさんの綺麗なサカナやウミガメに会えました。大きなウミガメが水底で眠っているところや、小さめなウミガメが3匹で泳いでいるところなどが見られてとっても感動しました。私たちは大満足で、1時間以上、フルに楽しむことができました。唯一、水が濁っていたのが少し残念でした。
私たちは自前でシュノーケルとフィンを持って行きました。ツアーでもシュノーケルは貸していましたが、フィンは用意されていないようで、他の参加者はフィンを使っていませんでした。本格的にシュノーケリングを楽しみたい方は、フィンを貸してくれるかどうか、事前に確認した方が良いと思います。
スタッフの方々は、皆さん、日本語も話せて、親切で明るくて、とても良かったです。

Amazing day even with the rain. Definitely coming back when it's sunny and low tide. Captain Robin and his team were super friendly, amazing and patient. Even with the rain there was plenty of fish and turtles to see. I'm not a strong swimmer and I need to touch the bottom (it's weird I know) but Captain Robin was so accomodating, calming, understanding and patient and took me out to the deep reef area on a floater device and I was able to see the fish and turtles. I'm glad he did and I'm glad he didn't push me when I tapped out early. True champion.
The vessel is clean and has plenty of snacks and hot and cold drinks if you don't want to take your own. You can take your own alcohol and they also have plenty of water toys, paddle boards, floatation devices in a seperate raft.
Make sure to bring cash to tip as they are definitely deserving of any gratuity and the experience is amazing as well. One I'll definitely do again when I'm back next time.
Thank you so much was a wonderful day.

The kids were very satisfied! Light snacks are included, and there are restrooms on the boat. The weather and everything else was perfect. I would love to participate again when I come to Hawaii with friends next time!
シュノーケリングも付いてるし、浮き輪も子供2歳の子が乗れるミニ浮き輪も無料で貸してくれるし、日本語分かるスタッフもちゃんと居てくれてるので安心。
子供たちも凄く満足していました❗軽食も☕付いてるし、⛴️にはトイレも付いています、天気も何もかも最高でした。また次回友達とハワイに来たら参加したいです
Thank you very much for choosing the Captain Bruce's Paradise Sea Tour from among the many optional tours available. We are very pleased to hear that the children were satisfied as well. We all look forward to the day we can meet again.

Captain and her team was awesome! Loved the experience, it’s mainly luck if you wanna see a lot of marine life but the experience itself was so cool! We went with a total of 14 people in my group
