Oahu
Looking at past reviews, there weren't many positive comments, but I had heard that due to the effects of global warming and the timing of low tides, the sandy beach might not appear recently, so I wasn't disappointed at all.
More importantly, the sea was incredibly beautiful, and my one-year-old child was thrilled! We even got to see sea turtles while snorkeling, which was so exciting! There were many guides who spoke Japanese, so I felt completely at ease. They were very kind, teaching us various things and supporting my child's beach experience. The photos taken in the midst of the mountains and the sea were absolutely wonderful. I definitely want to go again!
過去のレビューを見ると、あんまり良い事書いてなかったのですが、そもそも最近は温暖化影響や干潮タイミングで砂浜が現れないと聞いてたんで、全然がっかりしませんでした。
それよりもとてもキレイな海で1歳の子供も大喜びでした!またシュノーケリングではウミガメも見れて、大興奮でした!日本語ができるガイドさんがたくさんいるので、不安もなく、むしろいろいろと教えてくださったり、子供の海水浴をサポートしてくれたり、とても優しかったです!山々と海という大自然の中で撮った写真もとってもステキでした。絶対また行きたいです!

We booked this trip as part of the bachelorette party. Had an amazing experience from start to finish. We had a bus pick us up from the hotel we were staying and dropped us off at the location. Once we arrived we got on the boat, staff was extremely friendly and attentive. There was plenty of time in between each excursion to enjoy the water activities. Had burgers, fruits, and chips for lunch. Did a little bit of turtle watching. Finished with a warm beverage of your choice to wrap up the boat ride. Highly recommend!
The crew was very nice. I can't wait to go again.
Thank you so much for joining us and shared your experience with us. We look forward to seeing you again in the near future. Mahalo!
Capt. Ige and crew was great. They treated us very good and showed us a great time. I am definitely going to do it again with other friend that comes up from abroad. Beach volleyball was fun and snorkeling near the reef was a blast as we were close to a sea turtle.
My family really enjoyed the trip/tour. They had a shuttle to pick up us from the hotel in Waikiki. We saw so many fish and sea turtles. Definitely want to do it again!
Aloha and Mahalo! We're very pleased to hear that you had a great time in the sandbar. Thank you so much for your kind words. We look forward to seeing you again in the near future.
We had a fantastic time on this tour. The staff was great and we had a great time. Great!
On behalf of Capt. Bruce, Aloha and Mahalo for your support!
It was fun , would recommend and do again. Everyone was helpful and nice.
Thank you so much for joining us and shared your experience with us. We look forward to seeing you again. Mahalo!
Yuki and the entire team are a fantastic crew. It’s clearly one of the best activities on the island. Highly recommend them! The volleyball on the sandbar, turtle sightings, and snorkeling along with all the food and drinks were very well coordinated.
I’ve been to around 6-7 different snorkel tours and the experience at Bob’s tour is by far the best. The tour is well planned, faculties are pretty new and the crew attend to a lot of details - like you’ll get a shower right after you get out of water which helps a lot if you don’t like the sea smell & want to get warm and dry quickly. The lunch is also really delicious. They even provide hot chocolate after the snorkeling, not to mention the beautiful white sand, dozens of turtles and tremendous view at the snorkeling point. Mahalo for the great experience!
Kaneohe bay is so beautiful. Everyone was very nice. Snorkeling was super fun. Volleyball on the sandbar was also really fun. Seeing the turtles off the sides of the boat was really cool too.
An amazing experience! It’s so well organized and they give you all the information you need to have an amazing time! It’s a wonderful experience and the crew is fantastic! Hanging out at the Sandbar is a unique experience, and as an added bonus, saw lots of turtles and lots of beautiful fish! Absolutely recommend it to anyone thinking about it!
Great staff- super friendly and accommodating. Lunch was good and the few locations we stopped at were so nice! A definite MUST
I would highly recommend this tour of all the snorkeling tours. This is very good for swimmers and non swimmers as the water level is only about 4ft near the sandbar. There is a beautiful coral reef that swimmers can go. The instructors are very helpful for non swimmers as they take them personally to show the turtles.
Aloha and thank you so much for taking the time to write this wonderful review of yours. Your review is greatly appreciated and we hope to see you again. Mahalo!
In December, I signed up with transportation included. I thought the ocean conditions would vary daily due to the tides. It was mentioned that there would be wetsuits on the boat, but there were none available. Inside the boat, there were tea, chips, and apples available for free.
When we arrived at the sandbar, the captain explained in English that we should not go behind the boat. In December, the water was quite cold, so it wasn't comfortable to stay in for long. We were brought back to the boat once for a snorkeling briefing. Personally, I think if they had explained it first, we wouldn't have had to come back up. It was too cold for me to go in a second time.
After the experience, I asked a local, and they said that due to climate change, the sea level has risen, making it rare for sandbars to form in recent years. At 148 cm tall, the water was just deep enough for me to stand. There were life jackets available. I felt that for this price, we could have done diving instead.
12月、送迎付きで申し込みました。海の状況は、満ち引きがあるため、コンディションは、日々違うと思って参加。
船内にウエットスーツがあると書いてありましたが、置いておらず。
船内にはお茶や、チップス、リンゴが置いてあります、自由に頂くことが可能です。
サンドバーに着いたら、船長より英語で船より後ろに行ってはいけないなどの説明があります。12月、水はかなり冷たいのでずーっと入ってられるという感じではありませんでした。途中で一回船に戻されて、シュノーケルの説明があります。個人的に、最初に説明すれば一度上がることなかったのになぁと思います。寒いから2回目入ることができませんでした。
体験後、現地の方に伺いましたが、温暖化の影響で海水量が増え、近年、サンドバーになる事は稀だそうです。身長148センチの私は、足がやっと着くくらいの深さでした。ライフジャケットはあります。この料金なら、ダイビングができたなぁと感じました。

キャプテンブルース天国の海ツアーです。この度は数あるツアーの中から弊社をお選びいただいたにも関わらず、ご期待にお応えできなかったことを心よりお詫び申し上げます。ウェットスーツに関しましてはコロナ禍における衛生面の観点より事前予約性となっておりましたがご案内が行き届いておらずに大変ご迷惑をおかけいたしました。寒さ対策等含め、天候等の条件に関わらずご満足いただくことができるように今後のツアー内容・サービスの向上を目指して参りますので、またの機会にぜひお越しいただけますと幸いです。貴重なご感想をいただきありがとうございました。
The activities were great and the crew was helpful and friendly. It was a great experience! the volleyball game before the snorkeling was fun and helped everyone get to know each other, and the snorkeling was terrific. Highly recommended!
From the moment you step on the pier the staff of Spirit of Aloha was upbeat and fun! We felt welcome and safe but new we were in for a good time. The drinks were simple but tasty and they didn't skimp. The food that was included could have been a little better, simple chicken breast sandwiches on rolls but you're there for a boat ride and booze! Checking in could have also been a little more organized. Overall I definitely recommend this outing on anyone's visit to the island!
A few of the families had a hard time managing their kids so one suggestion I might give to Spirit of Aloha Waikiki Sunset Cruise is hosting at least one adults only, 21+ cruise.
This was my 2nd time on Captain Bobs snorkel and sandbar tour. I will be back to Hawaii in May and will be booking my 3rd trip with this amazing crew`. This trip was a bit cool with rain (December which we kind of expected ) but how can we have beauty without rain?? The lunch is wonderful. You can not find a better crew and trip. Do yourself a favor and book Caption Bob’s sandbar and snorkel tour. You will not be disappointed…unless you are a Karen. Hahah
The two ladies are so nice, professional, helpful and patient. The captain very patiently led my daughter to the reef to see turtles and fishes. After the tour, we found out that our rental car was dead at the harbor. The ladies and two other guys offered help, while we were calling the rental office. They checked and jump started the car. We managed to drive back to the car rental office for replacement. Otherwise, we would wait for toll service for at least 2 hours. We offered additional tips but they refused. Very touched. They are the best!!
Aloha, thank you so much for your kind words. I'm glad you've made it back safely to your hotel. On behalf of Capt. Bruce, we thank you so much for your feedback and support! We look forward to seeing you again in the near future.
The ladies. Captain and the lunch was good. Would recommend the good experience to others. No regrets at all.
Super fun and highly recommended. We enjoyed all the activities while at the sandbar. It was super exciting to swim near sea turtles.
Aloha and Mahalo! Thank you so much for the 5 star review. We look forward to seeing you again.
Highly recommend! Snorkeling, playing volleyball, taking amazing photos with amazing views was priceless! The food was awesome and had plenty for leftovers! We even got a complimentary guitar performance at the end! So much fun, so much knowledge and so much to see and do! Lovedddd this tour!
The timing was bad, the weather wasn't good, and it was very cold. I couldn't see a single fish while snorkeling. The bus guide was speaking in Chinese instead of English, so I couldn't understand. I think it would be a wonderful tour if the timing were better! I would like to try again someday!
タイミングが悪く天気が良くなくてとても寒かったです。
シュノーケリングしても魚1匹もみれませんでした。バスでは英語ではなく、中国語で案内していたので理解ができなかったです。
タイミングが良ければ素晴らしいツアーなんだと思いました!またいつかリベンジしたいです!

The ladies in the boat were great!! Great lunch and snorkeling
Captain Bob’s is awesome and must do. Kids enjoyed snorkeling and Sand bar. The staff was excellent. Surely recommend this tour to all.
The staffs are nice, snorkling is a lot of fun! They offer water, hot chocolate and tea. Also if you want to flush the salt away they provide clean water. The scenary is so nice!
Aloha and Mahalo for joining with the Capt. Bruce tour. A Hui Hou!
Kaneohe Bay is on my favorite side of Oahu. What a view! Plus the opportunity to stand out in the middle of the Bay and look at that view, makes it all the more sweeter. Glad Captain Bob's can get you there, feed you and they allow plenty of swimming/snorkeling time. See ya next year!
It was such an enjoyable sunset cruise. The crew were so great and kind and FUN.
The staff are very friendly and accommodating! We had a very good time! Though the weather was cloudy and almost like raining, the staff made the experience perfect for everyone. The lunch is simple (they served burgers) yet delicious!
Hands down one of the best experiences in Hawaii. v
The entire crew and captain were very professional and extremely knowledgeable. I will definitely be recommending this adventure to all my friends and family!!!
This tour was so much fun! We got to see so many neat fish and turtles, chill on the sandbar, boat activities were fun, yummy lunch, and great hosts. I would love to do this again one day!
