It rises up to 150 meters, and there is a sense of tension until that moment, but the fear lasts only for an instant. The view from up high is amazing. My husband, who has a fear of heights, also enjoyed it. There was stability without any significant swaying in the air. You are instructed to put away your phone, but if you're confident you won't drop it, you could probably take it up with you. (I didn't do that, though.) The moving boat does sway, so motion sickness medication is a must!

150mまで上昇、その瞬間まで緊張感はありますが、怖いと思うのは一瞬だけ。高いところからの景色が最高です。
高所恐怖症の夫も楽しめていました。
空中で大きく揺れることもなく安定感がありました。
ケータイを仕舞うように指示されますが、落とさない自信があるなら空まで持って行けそうです。
（私はしませんでしたが）
移動の船は揺れるので、酔い止め必須です！

This was my first time participating. I was worried about the check-in since I can't speak English, but the staff member helped me, and I was able to check in without any issues. There are also Japanese guidelines available.

Everyone goes barefoot on the boat, so wearing beach sandals or sneakers is fine. We brought a waterproof phone case to keep our money and card keys, but there was space under the benches on the boat for luggage, so some people participated with bags or backpacks (though they might get wet).

The boat moves at quite a speed, so depending on the wave height, it can jump and there can be quite a jolt. If you are prone to seasickness, I think it's safer to take motion sickness medication.

The start is on the boat, but since you will be landing in the water, I think it's better to have a towel if you're concerned. We dried off quite a bit on the way back to the boarding area.

The photo data was provided on an SD card and iPhone for about $40 for around 100 pictures, and after disembarking, we were able to view the photos and decide whether to purchase them.

The activity itself was an extraordinary experience and very enjoyable! The color of the ocean and the view of Honolulu were beautiful. I highly recommend it to anyone interested.

初めて参加しました。
英語が話せないのでチェックインから心配していましたが、店員のお姉さんに声をかけていただき無事にできました。日本語の規約もあります。
船上で全員裸足になるのでビーチサンダルでもスニーカーでも問題ありません。
私たちは防水の携帯ケースにお金やカードキーを入れて持っていきましたが、船のベンチの下に荷物を入れるスペースがあったので、鞄やリュックで参加されている方もいました。(濡れる可能性はあります。
船はかなりのスピードで進むので、波の高さによっては船がジャンプしたり結構衝撃がありました。船酔いしやすい方は酔い止めを飲んだ方が安心だと思います。
スタートは船上ですが、着水するので気になる方はタオルがあった方が良いと思います。乗船場に帰る間に結構乾きました。
写真のデータはSDカードとiPhoneに入れてもらって40$100枚くらいで、下船後に写真を見せてもらって購入するか決められました。
アクティビティ自体は非日常体験でとても楽しかったです！海の色とホノルルの景色がとても綺麗でした。興味ある方にはぜひお勧めしたいです。

My family and I loved the Kaneohe Bay Sandbar Ocean Sports Adventure. There was something for everyone to do. We also just enjoyed sitting on the water couch watching everyone else enjoy themselves. The staff was super friendly and helpful!

Our tour group was awesome!! So friendly and a fun experience. I appreciated the fact they had clean restrooms on the boat. They took their time to make sure we were all well taken care of with food, beverages and most importantly safety. Food was delicious well made burgers. We were able to get seconds once everyone was fed and there were leftovers which was really nice of them to offer for those of us who are good eaters ;) I absolutely love the Hawaiian culture and friendliness. Definitely can feel the ohana love for everyone.

I will definitely be coming back during my next vacation.

This trip was so much fun! All of the staff was so friendly and helpful! You really felt like royalty enjoying the island. The music on the way out to the sand bar had the whole boat singing and dancing. The SUP's and floating lounge were an awesome, not extra cost addition to the adventure. Looking forward to our next journey with this awesome crew!

Since I was alone, I opted for the premium experience to fully enjoy it, and I'm glad I chose the front stage! The fire dance was also impressive.

1人だったのでしっかり楽しむためにプレミアムにしましたが、目の前のステージにしてよかったです！
ファイヤーダンスも迫力ありました

It wasn't as scary as I thought, and the scenery was amazing. There was someone in the same group who got sick. The boat sways quite a bit, so it's better to take motion sickness medication. Although I didn't get sick, there were others who looked unwell. It seems customary to give a tip when getting off the boat. I was disappointed when I was told that they couldn't take my photo because the camera battery died.

思ったよりも怖くなく景色が最高でした。
同じグループで吐いてしまった人がいました。
船がかなり揺れるので、酔い止めは飲んだ方がいいです。吐いてはいないけれど他にも気分が悪そうな人がいました。
船を降りる時にチップを渡すのが普通みたいです。
写真を頼んでいたのに、カメラのバッテリー切れで撮れなかったと言われた時は残念でした。

We participated as a group of three.
First, the boat ride to the point had high waves, which added to the thrill of the attraction.
I didn't expect all three of us to ride together, so I was a bit flustered. It was nice to know that we could hold our smartphones while jumping, and the footage we captured became a great memory.
Since it was a windy day, two out of the three of us got seasick. Please be careful about the position of the belt, as it can get uncomfortable.
It was a fun experience that you don't get to have often.

３人で参加しました。
まずポイントに行くまでのボートも波が高くてアトラクション感がありました。
３人で同時に乗れるとは思ってなかったので少し慌てました。スマホを持って飛んでもいいとの事で飛び上がって撮った映像が良い記念になりました。
この日は風が強かったため３人中２人が船酔いしました。苦しくなるのでベルトの位置に注意して下さい。
なかなか出来ない経験なので楽しかったです。

Our first times...suprisingly not what we expected, it was MORE than! Had so much fun and maybe we'll take another cruise soon.

We had a great time on this excursion. It was one of the best that we've done in Oahu. The highlights of the trip were spotting many turtles (at least a dozen), playing volleyball on the sandbar, and snorkeling at the reef. On top of that, the staff was very friendly and helpful.

I will be recommending this to anyone I meet who is going to visit Oahu.

One of the best experiences I have ever had. We have snorkeled and saw so many fishes. Like the crystal clean water and kayaking ., what else ., a complete package with live music and drink.

Driving the buggy myself was fun. We stopped several times to take photos at movie locations, and they took some great pictures. The distance between vehicles is quite strict.

バギーを自分で運転して楽しかった。何度か止まって映画のロケーションで撮影をしてくれるのですが、いい感じの写真を撮ってくれます。
車間距離に結構シビアです。

We Had a fabulous evening, great shows and food was fantastic

We had a great time watching the sunset sipping our drinks and talking to tourists about this amazing place. Everything went very smoothly on the boat, we were given great pointers about the boat and where to sit. Will do this again with my family. Thank you for a wonderful time!!

It was a condensed plan! The Kaneohe Bay cruise included a shuttle bus to the boat, which was an activity in itself, and it felt refreshing with the windows wide open. We rode on two types of boats, walked on the island, and the sea was beautiful. We were able to see coral reefs and honu in the shallow waters, and everywhere we looked was a photo opportunity; it was all so beautiful and thoroughly enjoyable.

The movie location bus tour had us boarding at the end, so our family of four ended up sitting separately... But in a way, it allowed us to interact with tourists from overseas. There was only one other Japanese group besides us.

The bus driver and guide performed a hula dance at the end, and it was incredibly moving! Even without a costume, there was an instant beautiful aura. I felt that this dance was a prayer.

My teenage son said he wants to experience something more active next time, like horseback riding or buggies, but my grandmother in her 70s was very happy with everything. We also bought the photos taken before the tour as a keepsake on our way back. I highly recommend it.

凝縮されたプランでした!
カネオヘ湾クルーズは、船までの送迎バスもアクテビティのひとつ、窓全開で爽快でした。船も2種類に乗り、島を歩くし、海も綺麗、浅瀬ではサンゴ礁やホヌも見ることができて、道中、どこをとっても、全ての景色がフォトチャンス、綺麗で、大満喫でした。
映画ロケ地バスツアーは、最後に並んで乗り込んでしまったので、家族4人がばらばらの相席に‥。それもそれで、海外からの観光客と、交流できたように思います。日本人は、私たちの他に1組だけいらっしゃいました。
バスのドライバー兼ガイドさんが、最後に、フラを踊ってくれたのですが、その踊りが、大変感動的でした！衣装をきてなくても、一瞬で美しいオーラに。この踊りは祈りなんだなと、感じました。
10代の息子は次は、馬とかバギーとかアクティブなものを体験したいと言ってましたが、70代の祖母は、どれも大変喜んでました。ツアー前に撮ってもらった写真も、帰りに記念に買ってきました。お勧めです。

It was a lot of fun to return to my childhood and try various things after a long time. The shops outside had many different items compared to Waikiki, and shopping was enjoyable as well. I want to go again!

久々に童心に返りいろんな事に挑戦したりととても楽しかったです。
外のショップもワイキキとは違う物が沢山売っていて買い物も楽しかったです。
また、行きたいです！

It's an early morning tour, so snorkeling starts at 9 AM. Even in Hawaii, it's cold. It was that cold in June, so winter will be even colder. If possible, a thin wetsuit is recommended; if not, a long-sleeve rash guard is essential. Also, please make sure to wear marine shoes in areas with lots of fish. Additionally, no Japanese is spoken at all, and all pickup locations and times are in English, so those who can't speak English might want to reconsider.

朝が早いツアーなので
９時からシュノーケリングになり
ハワイといえども寒いです
６月であれだけ寒かったので
冬はもっと寒いでしょう
できれば薄手のウェットスーツ
なければ長袖ラッシュは必須
あと、魚がたくさんいる場所は
マリンシューズも絶対履いてください。
あと日本語は一切通じないし
ピックアップ場所や時間も全て英語なので
英語できない人はやめた方がいいかも

I checked the tide chart and made a reservation to go, but the water level was about knee-high, so I went snorkeling. It was a bit murky, but I was able to see tropical fish swimming. The weather was a little bad, so it was a bit cold. The staff were friendly.

潮見表で確認して予約して行きましたが、ひざ上ぐらいの水位があったのでシュノーケリングをしました。少し濁り気味でしたが熱帯魚が泳いでいるようすは見れました。ちょっと天候が悪かったので少し寒かったです。スタッフさんは親切でした。

Wow! What an awesome afternoon spent on the sandbar! The staff are wonderful, the location is breathtaking, the activities endless!! Just book it! You won’t regret it. Memories that I will treasure forever!

The whole experience was top quality.
The staff, the safety and the activity.
We had a blast.

Beautiful property.
Our only struggle was the waiting time for the shuttle.

I went with my daughter and it was a beautiful experience. The hike was definitely a calorie burner foe me. My daughter barely broke a sweat! The tour guide was fantastic, along with our transportation driver. I loved the scenery, The information. Very great experience!

I was really looking forward to coming to Kualoa Ranch since I've watched the Jurassic Park series countless times with my son. After arriving in Hawaii, I finally made it to this dream destination. The moment I saw the movie scenery in person, I was so moved that I got goosebumps! Not only from the Jurassic series, but also from movies like "50 First Dates," which I had watched without knowing it was filmed here, and "Kong," which I saw on the ANA flight. I was constantly surprised to find that many movies I had seen were filmed at Kualoa Ranch. As a movie lover, it was truly a blissful time.

The lunch buffet included in the tour was hearty and quite delicious. The spare ribs, in particular, were very satisfying. Considering that one meal is included, the tour price felt like a great deal. Dining while overlooking Hawaii's great nature was wonderful.

In the afternoon, you can enjoy two types of cruises: one on the lake (or pond?) and one at sea. The weather turned a bit bad during the sea cruise, but seeing Kualoa Ranch from the ocean was impressive and reminiscent of the opening scene from the first Jurassic Park. Although the cruise wasn't very long, it was enough to fully enjoy Hawaii's natural beauty.

Kualoa Ranch offers various plans, but I highly recommend this one!

ジュラシックパークのシリーズを何度となく息子と見てきたので、クアロアランチに来るのを本当に楽しみにしていました。ハワイに到着し、いよいよ憧れの地へ。映画の風景を目の当たりにした瞬間は鳥肌が立つくらい感動しました！ジュラシックシリーズだけでなく、ここがロケ地だと知らずに見ていた映画「50回目のファーストキス」、行きのANAの飛行機の中で見た映画「コング」など、見たことがあるたくさんの映画のロケがクアロアランチで行われていて、「おー！」と驚いてばかり。映画好きとしては、本当に至福の時間でした。

ツアーに含まれているランチビュッフェはボリューム満点で、味もなかなか美味しかったです。特にスペアリブが食べ応えがあります。1回の食事が含まれていると思うと、ツアー代金がお得に感じます。ハワイの大自然を眺めながらの食事は素敵でした。

午後のクルーズは湖（池？）と海の2種類のクルーズが楽しめます。海のクルーズの途中で少し天気が悪くなってきたのですが、海から見るクアロアランチは迫力があり、最初のジュラシックパークの冒頭シーンを彷彿させます。時間としてはそれほど長くありませんが、ハワイの自然を満喫するのには十分でした。

クアロアランチには色々なプランがありますが、このプランはお勧めです！

Amazing sandbar experience! We did this before but this time, we had the best sandbar tour, service and music…. Very relaxing and roomy boat.. so glad they had a changing room and separate bathrooms. Best part was the Hawaiian LIVE music, and kayaking, paddle boarding and snorkeling.

The guide was very unfriendly, and there was almost no explanation or conversation. However, horseback riding in nature felt great! If only the guide had been better, it would have been perfect.

ガイドさんがめっちゃ無愛想で、全く説明とか会話がほぼなかった。ただ大自然の中での乗馬は気持ちが良かった！
ガイドさんさえよければ満点です。

kids and adults loved the fun day we had would recommend it to all ages...

The buggy has a left-hand drive, but it's not a problem at all. It's easy to operate and a lot of fun! The scenery is good. However, there's a lot of dust... goggles are a must!

バギーは左ハンドルですが、全く問題ありません。操作も簡単！楽しいです。景色もGood
しかし、砂埃が…ゴーグルは着用必須ですね！

I made a reservation for the morning of the last day. Since it was a trip with my son, I wanted to find something memorable, so I looked for an optional tour that fit well with our schedule. At first, I was worried about how high we would go. It seemed high, but perhaps because the view was so nice, the feeling of pleasure outweighed the fear. I recommend trying it at least once. The staff were also kind and helpful. Thank you!

最終日の午前中の時間を利用して前日に予約を入れました。
息子との2人旅行でしたので何か思い出に残りそうなものをと思ってオプショナルツアーを探しましたところ時間的にもちょうど良いツアーでした。
最初はどれくらいの高さまでいくのだろうと心配しておりました。高いと思いましたが景色が良いせいか、怖さより気持ち良さの方が勝りました。
一度やってみるのもおすすめです。
スタッフの方も親切で助かりました。
ありがとうございました！

I was worried about participating since it was a local gathering and English-only. When I arrived at the meeting place, I wasn't sure where to go at first, so I asked someone at the back facility and found the boat labeled "MOANA." I joined with three others, and we each entered the consent form using our mobile phones by scanning the QR code.

Once on the boat, we found the seats comfortable and relaxing. The explanations were in English, so I used a translation app and understood most of it. The life jackets were not vests but waist wraps, so if you're feeling uneasy, it's a good idea to bring a vest or use two waist wraps for peace of mind when entering the water. Once in the water, we were instructed not to stray from the staff. We got to see sea turtles! It was amazing to see a mother and baby turtle come right up in front of us. There were also many fish swimming around.

On the way back, we enjoyed drinks, and everyone was able to relax on the boat, which was a pleasant time. There were several staff members who were very kind and helpful throughout the experience.

現地集合、英語オンリーとのことだったので心配しながらの参加。集合場所に行きましたが最初はどこかわからず奥の施設の方に聞いて108の船のところ、船にはMOANA号と書かれていて一安心。4人で参加しましてが携帯でそれぞれQRコードから入り承諾書など入力。
いざ船は横になったりイスも座り心地良く快適でした。説明は英語でなので翻訳アプリを使用しておおむねわかりました。救命胴衣はベストではなく腰巻きなので不安な時はベストを持参されるか腰巻きを2個使うと安心して海に入れました。海に入ったらスタッフの方から離れないようにします。ウミガメに会えました！海そこに親子や大きなウミガメが途中目の前に顔を出してくれて感動でした。魚もたくさん泳いでいました。帰りの船ではドリンクも頂きみなさん疲れて船に横になったり気持ちの良い時間でした。スタッフの方も数人いらしてみなさんとても親切に対応してくれています。

It was a tour in March, but the response from the Japanese staff on board, especially their commanding tone and seemingly angry way of speaking, was not acceptable. While I understand that the weather and sea temperature are beyond control, I regret paying the price for this level of service. I often use overseas tours, but I felt a significant difference in quality this time.

3月のツアーでしたが、船上の日本人スタッフの対応、特に命令調な言い方や怒ったような言い方が納得行くものではなかったです。天気や海水温は仕方ありませんが、この対応はそれなりの料金を払ったことに後悔しています。良く海外ツアーは利用しますが、当たりハズレの差を感じました。
