The sandbar changes completely depending on the tides, and I think its uniqueness deserves a perfect score of 100. However, it's important to note that it doesn't always form a beach in the middle of the sea as shown in the pictures. Those who are lucky might find a beach, while others can enjoy the sea turtles.
サンドバーはそのときの潮の満ち引きによって全然景色が変わるし、珍しさは100点だと思います。
ただ、写真のように海の真ん中に浜になっているとは限らないので要注意。運がいい人は浜に当たるかもね。浜に出会えない方は海ガメで楽しめるかも。

I had to go to the sandbar on my first trip to Hawaii! Although I was alone, the staff were young and friendly, and the ocean was incredibly beautiful. Of course, I also got to see sea turtles. It seemed difficult to take pictures, though. I’m good at snorkeling, so I easily cleared it and swam at the front of the tour, enjoying the fish in the clear waters.
初めてのハワイでサンドバー行くっきゃない!だけどぉ、独りは一人だったけどぉ。スタッフは若くて気さくな感じだし、海はとってもきれいなのだぁ。もちろんウミガメも見れたよぉ。写真に撮るのは難しそうだったけれどぉ。初種のーケリングも潜るの得意だから難なくクリアーでツアーの先頭を泳げば澄み切った海で魚たちを楽しめます。

I participated in the most popular tour, the afternoon BBQ lunch tour, which is known for its delicious food. The weather was great, and the sea was beautiful! I realized I had forgotten my video camera on the shuttle bus. What a shock! I had bought a compact video camera to capture this sea... In the early morning, I joined the Diamond Head sunrise tour. I guess I was a bit relaxed, and while searching for a shop near the boat departure point, I found none.
When I asked the staff, they mentioned that waterproof cameras called "Utsurun desu" are sold on the boat... When I tried to buy one, I learned about a service that turns photos taken at the sand bar into a DVD. The sand bar is a famous spot for commercial filming. Hmm. The "Utsurun desu" camera costs $20, while the DVD shooting is $45... I thought about having a photo DVD made of me, my son, and my mother.
However, we had to pose properly... arms wide open, all three of us overlapping, and so on. Plus, I was bare-faced with messy hair... I thought the woman in a bikini taking our photos looked much more suited to the beautiful sea... but we went ahead with it. My son had a stiff expression the whole time. My mother looked great in the photos, and the photo spots were indeed well-chosen.
The finished photos turned out beautifully. However, having to pick them up at the office near DFS after 7 PM that day was a bit inconvenient. I wished there was a delivery service to the hotel.
After that, we went snorkeling. My son, who had been taking swimming lessons, of course participated. I also joined since I had gotten somewhat used to it at Hanauma Bay on the first day. However, the water was 20 meters deep. The distance was about 100 meters round trip, I think. It suddenly got deep from knee-deep water. Some women decided not to participate, fearing they might panic at that depth, but I can only swim about 25 meters. There were small children participating with their fathers, so it was okay. However, the visibility wasn't that great, and I could only see a few fish far below.
We saw several sea turtles from the boat on the way to the sand bar.
The BBQ lunch after snorkeling was delicious, just as I had expected. The kalbi meat was easy to eat, and we all commented on how tasty the salad was.
ツアーで一番人気の、このツアーBBQランチが美味しいという評判の午後ツアーに参加してきました。
天気も良く、海も綺麗!送迎のバスの中でビデオカメラを忘れてきたことに気がつきました。ショック。この海を撮りたくて小型ビデオカメラを購入したのに・・・早朝、ダイアモンドヘッド日の出ツアーに参加。きっと、気が緩んでいたんでしょうねと思いつつ、ボートの発着所付近にショップはないか、捜しましたがありません。
スタッフの方に聞くと、「写るんです」の防水カメラはボート内で販売しているとか・・・購入しようとすると、このサンド・バーで写真をDVDにしてくれるというサービスがあることを知りました。サンド・バーはCM撮影で有名なスポット。う~ん。「写るんです」は20ドル。DVD撮影は45ドル・・・いっそ、私と息子、母の3人を撮ってもらおうかと写真DVDをお願いしました。
しかし、ポーズをしっかりつけること・・・両手を広げて、三人重なって・・などなど。しかも、私はノーメイクで、髪はボサボサ・・・写真を撮ってくださるビキニの女性の方がよほど、この海の景色に似合いそうだ・・・などと思いつつ撮ってもらいました。息子は終始、かたい表情。母は、良い表情に撮れていましたし、写真を撮るスポットはさすがに、慣れているだけあって良かったです。
出来上がったものは、綺麗に撮れていました。
その日の19時以降にDFSの近くの事務所まで受け取りに行くのが、ちょっと。ホテルまで届けてくれるサービスなどあればと思いました。
その後はシュノーケリング。息子はスイミングを習っていたので、もちろん参加。私も初日のハナウマ湾で、やや慣れたので参加。けれど、水深20メートル。距離は往復で100メートル~だと思います。膝ほどの水深からいきなり、深くなります。
水深が20メートルだと、途中でパニックになるかもしれないなどど参加をやめた女性もいましたが、私も25メートルほどしか泳げません。小さな子供もお父さんと参加していたので、大丈夫です。ただし、透明度はそれほどではなく、魚もずっと下の方に少し見えるくらいでした。
海ガメは、サンド・バーに行く途上で何匹も船上から見えました。
シュノーケリングの後のBBQランチは期待通り、美味しかったです。カルビ肉は食べやすく、サラダも味付けが美味しいねと皆で話していま

On March 21, 2011, I participated in this tour with my parents and my son (8 years old). It was cloudy in Waikiki, and there was a bit of rain on the mountain roads, so I was worried about the weather. However, when we arrived at the location, it wasn't perfectly sunny, but the weather was decent with some sunshine. Even in late March, the water temperature was still low. During this tour, we snorkeled twice at different points, but during the first snorkeling session, my son and the other children turned blue in the lips and were shivering. The adults, including myself, didn't feel as cold, but if children are going snorkeling at this time of year, a rash guard might not be warm enough. The snorkeling left a stronger impression than walking on the sandbar. Most of the staff were Japanese, so they kindly explained how to wear and use the snorkeling gear in Japanese, which made me feel at ease. During the first snorkeling session, we encountered a sea turtle. The colorful tropical fish and the sea turtle were truly moving. We boarded the cruiser, which took us to the snorkeling points, and even though the meals on board were light snacks, they were quite delicious. For the second snorkeling session, I was told that the current was a bit stronger than at the first point, but even as a beginner, I was able to snorkel without being swept away. This point had clearer water and a more beautiful sea. We didn't see any sea turtles here, but afterward, we returned to the boat for turtle watching. We discovered many sea turtles, and my parents, who didn't snorkel, also enjoyed it. All the staff were kind, and I would definitely recommend this tour.
2011年3月21日にこのツアーに私の両親と私と息子(8歳)で参加しました。ワイキキでは曇りで途中山道でも雨がちらつき、天候が心配でしたが、現地に到着するとピーカンではありませんでしたが、日差しもぼちぼちの天候となりました。3月下旬でもやはり水温は低く、このツアーではポイントを変えて2回シュノーケルしたのですが、1度目のシュノーケルで、息子も含め他の子供達も唇が真っ青でぶるぶる震えるような感じになりました。私や他の大人の方々は、それほど寒さを感じませんでしたが、この時期のシュノーケルは、お子さんが行かれるのであれば、ラッシュガードでは寒いかもしれません。サンドバーのウォーキングよりは、シュノーケルが印象に残りました。スタッフは日本の方がほとんどでしたので、日本語で丁寧にシュノーケルの装着や使い方について説明してくださり、安心してシュノーケルができました。1度目のシュノーケル時にウミガメに遭遇しました。色とりどりの熱帯魚とウミガメ、それはもう感動的でした。クルーザーに乗り込み、ポイントまで連れていっていただいたのですが、船内での食事も軽食とはいえ、なかなかおいしかったです。2度目のシュノーケルは、最初のポイントよりやや潮の流れがあるとのことでしたが、初心者の私でも流されることなく安心してシュノーケルできました。こちらのポイントの方が透明度が高く美しい海でした。ここではウミガメには会えませんでしたが、その後船に戻りウミガメウォッチングをしました。
たくさんのウミガメを発見して、こちらはシュノーケルはしなかった私の両親も楽しんでいました。
スタッフのみなさんもどなたも親切ですし、是非お勧めしたいツアーです。

After taking the bus to switch to the boat, we headed to the point where we could see sea turtles. After seeing the sea turtles, we were on the boat for about another 5 minutes to the sandbar. Unfortunately, due to the tide, we ended up walking in knee-deep water. It was said that if the tide was just right, we could walk on the sandbank. Well, I didn't mind being in knee-deep water, but many people were disappointed.
After that, we changed locations for snorkeling. This was amazing! You can encounter all sorts of fish! Since the snorkeling was in a coral reef at a depth where you can't touch the bottom, it might be a bit challenging for beginners...
After that, we had a hearty lunch. This was also excellent.
Overall, it was a packed tour.
Don't forget to bring tissue paper to the restroom at the dock where the boat returns.
迎えのバスから船に乗り換えてウミガメの見えるポイントへ
ウミガメを見たらまた5分ぐらい船に揺られてサンドバーへ。
あいにく潮の加減でひざまで水につかってのウオーキングでした。
潮の具合でうまくいけば砂洲を歩けるとのこと。
まあ、ひざまで水につかってても私は気にならなかったけど、残念に思っていた人たちは多かった。
その後、また少し場所を替えてシュノーケリング。
これがすばらしい!
とにかくいろんな魚に逢える!
足のつかない深さのさんご礁のシュノーケリングなので、シュノーケリング初心者はちょっとハードかも・・・
それが終わるとボリュームたっぷりのランチ。
これも申し分なかったです。
とにかく盛りだくさんのツアーでした。

My wife and I went on this snorkeling cruise in late February, and it was the funnest part of our vacation on Oahu. Allthough there are many choices for snorkeling you could take while in Hawaii, and on Oahu, I really think this was good for the price. The crew, the lunch, and especially the place where we snorkled - Kaneohe Bay. Fantastic! The sandbar was fun, I think they should spend more time there, or incorporate another tour that would be just for those wanting to lounge around on the sandbar and have some drinks and food. We are glad that we went on this activity, and would do it again!

We had a great time on this cruise/snorkel activity. The staff on the boat were friendly and knowledgeable. The snorkeling on the reef was awesome with lots of colorful corals and many different fish. We saw a turtle in the water while we were snorkeling and followed it for awhile. We played water volleyball on the sandbar and it was lots of fun. The boat stopped at a spot where there are green turtles and we saw lots of them. The guitar serenade during lunch was a nice touch.

This was my second time participating. Last year, I joined with three friends and was so impressed by the beauty of the ocean that I wanted my boyfriend, who was visiting Hawaii for the first time, to see it too, so I participated with him this time.
Since it was February, which is winter, I felt that the ocean wasn't as beautiful as it was during the summer when I participated last time. I thought the season might not be the best for me, but my boyfriend, who was participating for the first time, was amazed by the beautiful sea.
Especially since I'm not very good at swimming, I was moved by the snorkeling experience where, even if you can't swim well, you can still see the beautiful corals and the colorful fish swimming around.
The staff on this tour had such high energy and kept us entertained throughout. So, if you're looking to have a fun time with a group or just want to enjoy some lively company, this is definitely the right choice. Even if you go alone, I think you'll have a great time!
2度目の参加です。
去年、友人3人と参加し、海の綺麗さに感動したので、初めてのハワイの彼にも是非、その美しさを見てほしかったので彼と一緒に参加しました。
今回は2月という冬場だったので、前回夏場に参加したときより海の綺麗さがなく、私にとってはちょっぴりイマイチ季節が悪かったかなって思っていましたが、初参加の彼は美しい海に感動していました。
特に、あまり泳ぎは得意なほうではないのですが、シュノーケリングで泳げなくても美しい珊瑚と群がる綺麗なお魚が見れるので感動です。
こちらのツアーは、スタッフの方々のテンションがとても高く、始終楽しませてくれます。なので、わいわいしたい人やグループでの参加なら盛り上がることは間違いないでしょうし、一人での参加でも楽しめそうです。

I participated in the afternoon session on January 15 (Saturday). The weather was not just sunny, but perfectly clear. The sunlight was so strong that it was quite hot, so even when I got into the water, it wasn't too cold. There were many participants, over 40? It was fully booked. We saw a lot of green sea turtles, and the sandbar was just exposed due to the low tide. The tour staff mentioned it was the first time they had seen such a low tide. The staff's service was good, and I was particularly impressed by a lively woman in her thirties. She had a nice figure and even wore a belly button ring. Although she was married... They also took commemorative photos for us, and the snorkeling allowed us to see plenty of fish. The BBQ lunch afterward was very delicious, especially the chicken. My wife was also very pleased. The commemorative photos were $10, but I don't think that's expensive. Some participants even had video recordings. Even in January, if the weather is good, it’s not cold. I would like to participate again. Newlyweds, mature couples, families, and groups can all enjoy this experience. I think there are many repeat visitors as well.
1月15日(土)PMの部に参加させてもらいました。
天気は晴れじゃなく快晴。とても日差しが強く暑いぐらいでしたので、水の中に入ってもそう寒くはなかったです。
参加者は多く、40人以上?満席状態でした。
アオウミガメもたくさん見れましたし、サンドバーは、丁度引き潮の時間帯だったので砂が海面から出てきたところでした。ツアースタッフ5名もこんなに引いたのは初めて見たと言ってました。スタッフの対応も良く、三十路のお姉さん?がとても元気だったのが印象に残りました。へそピーなんか付けちゃって、なかなかスタイルも良かったです。既婚ですが・・。記念撮影もしてくれましたし、シュノーケリングも魚が良く見れたし、その後のBBQランチもとても美味しかったです。チキンが良かった。うちのかみさんも大変喜んでくれました。記念写真は$10ですが高いとは思いません。中には、ビデオ撮影の方もいらっしゃいました。
1月でも天候に恵まれれば寒くないです。

I participated with my mother, and this was my graduation trip to Hawaii. Among all the activities, this snorkeling tour was my main goal. I had read experiences from those who participated before, so I joined with high expectations, and it did not disappoint—every moment turned out to be the best day ever!
The sandbar was incredibly beautiful, and while snorkeling, I swam among small fish that were deeper than my feet could reach. This feeling is something you can only truly understand by experiencing it with your own body and eyes.
I'm not a strong swimmer, so I was a bit scared about snorkeling in deep water, but wearing a life jacket ensured I wouldn't sink, and everyone was close by, which made me feel safe. There were also a few people who just walked on the sandbar and observed the snorkeling from the boat.
I joined in the afternoon, and I was worried about getting hungry since lunch was after the sandbar and snorkeling. However, before we departed from the harbor, we were able to enjoy Leonard's malasadas and drinks, which was great.
The crew members were all wonderful people, and they made the experience enjoyable. The buffet-style lunch was also incredibly delicious! If I ever come back to Hawaii, I would definitely want to join this tour again!☆
母と娘の親子で参加しました。
私の大学卒業旅行で来たハワイ、中でもこのシュノーケリングツアーは一番の目的でもありました。事前に参加された方々の体験談も読んでいたので、相当な期待感を持っての参加でしたが、その期待を裏切ることなくどこをとっても最高の一日となりました!
美しすぎるサンドバーに、シュノーケリングでは自分の足のさらに奥深くを泳ぐ小魚。この感動はやはり自分の体と目で感じないとわからないと思います。
泳ぎが得意でない私は、足のつかないところでのシュノーケリングということで少し怖かったのですが、ライフジャケットを着るので絶対沈みませんし、みんな近くにいるので安心です。サンドバーだけ歩いて、シュノーケリングは船の上で見学されている方も何人かいらっしゃいました。
お昼からの参加でしたが、昼食はサンドバーとシュノーケリングが終わってからということで、お腹がすくかな?と心配だったのですが、港を出発する前にレナーズのマラサダと飲み物をいただけたのでよかったです。
クルーの皆さんもみんな良い人達で、楽しませていただきましたし、バイキング形式のランチもすごくおいしかったです!またハワイに来ることがあれば、是非参加したいツアーです☆

I participated on August 25.
Overall, it was just okay.
I think the tour is affected by the weather! In my case, it was as follows:
- The weather was bad and cold, and the wind was strong.
- As a result, the water clarity was not great (when the sunlight came through, it was very beautiful).
- The sandbar was not formed (maybe because of the weather?).
→ There was a shallow area in the middle of the sea, but there were no parts shallow enough to see the ground.
After that, I went snorkeling in the deep sea outside the original sandbar area. There were many black fish, and due to the strong wind, the waves were high, so it wasn't that great. It might be tough for those who are not good at swimming!
The return boat was also cold. It's better to bring a towel. There was warm coffee and tea, which was helpful.
It could be a good tour on a nice day!
8月25日に参加。
総じて、まあまあだった。
天候に左右されるツアーだと思う!
私の場合は以下のとおりだったので。
?天気が悪く寒かった、風も強かった
?そのため海の透明度もいまいち(太陽の光が差し込んだ時は非常にキレイ)
?サンドバーもできていなかった(天候のせい?)
→海のど真ん中に浅瀬はあったが、地面が見える程浅い部分は無し。
その後、本来のサンドバー部分の外の深い海でシュノーケリングをした。
黒い魚が多く、風が強いため、波が高く、それほどでもなかった。泳ぎが苦手な人はきついかもしれない!
帰りのボートも寒かった。タオルをちゃんと持って行った方がよい。
あったかいコーヒー、紅茶はあり、それは助かった。
天気の良い日だと良いツアーかもしれない!

I was worried about the temperature and water temperature since I had a 7-year-old child with me, but both were warmer than I expected, and I didn't feel particularly cold. For those who are concerned, I think a surf top would be sufficient.
The sandbar was a truly beautiful place. I felt that seeing it in person was worth more than hearing about it a hundred times. Additionally, snorkeling near the coral after visiting the sandbar was also a delightful experience.
I appreciated the captain's playful service as well.

Last year, the tour was in the morning, and this time it was in the afternoon. Although it was a different company's tour, there wasn't much difference in content. Perhaps because it was the same season, even though they advertised that the boat would dock in the most favorable position, I felt that the distance from the boat to the sandbar was quite far, and the water level was higher than last year. The lunch was quite good, and the malasadas were delicious. The staff worked hard to keep everyone excited and raised their energy levels, but personally, I would have preferred a quieter, more relaxed experience. The photos taken at the sandbar that were uploaded to the website were a bit embarrassing, but I was still happy about it.
昨年は午前中、今回は午後のツアー。前回とは違う会社のツアーで、殆ど内容の違いはなかったのですが、時期が同じというのもあるのでしょうが、一番優遇されている位置にボートが停泊するとうたっていた割には、ボートからサンドバーまでの距離が遠かったように思いましたし、昨年よりも水位が高かったです。ランチの内容はかなりGOODです。マラサダも美味しかったです。スタッフのみなさんは、みんなを盛り上げようと、かなりテンション上げて頑張っていましたが、私的には、もう少し静かに、ゆったりと過ごしたかったな--。サンドバーで順番に撮っていただいた写真がHPにアップされていたのは、少々恥ずかしいけど、やっぱり嬉しいです。

The sandbar was really beautiful!! I definitely think you should go! I was able to see sea turtles up close, which was amazing. I thought there would only be English-speaking staff, but there was a staff member who spoke Japanese, so I felt reassured.
It was my first time snorkeling, and I was moved by how many beautiful fish I saw. Also, it was great that we had time to practice in a shallow area where we could stand before going into the deeper water. After getting out of the sea, it was quite cold, so I think it's a good idea to bring a larger bath towel or something to cover your body.

I participated for the first time when I went to Hawaii during Golden Week.
The weather was a bit cloudy.
However, I had checked the low tide times perfectly.
Surprisingly, the sandbar was much more exposed than the images suggested.
It was somewhat disappointing...
It was unexpected.
I thought it was nice to have space for two chairs.
Basically, this activity can be tough if the weather isn't good.
When the surrounding sea is cloudy, it looks dark, and it's hard to encounter sea turtles.
But I thought the food on the boat was delicious.
Also, I was happy to receive Leonard's malasadas, which I hadn't planned to eat.
Next time, I want to avoid going during the rainy season or after low tide.
GWにハワイへ行った際、初参加しました。
天気はちょっと曇り気味。
でも干潮の時間も調べてばっちりだったんです。
なんと、サンドバーは写真のイメージと違って、思いっきり出てたんです。
なんともありがたみの少ないことで・・・
想定外でした。
チェアーが二つ乗るくらいってのがいいもんだなと思いました。
基本的には天気が良くないとしんどいアクティビティーですね。
周りの海も曇りだとなんだか黒っぽいし、ウミガメも遭遇しづらいし。
でも船の上のご飯は美味しかったと思います。
あとは、レナーズのマラサダを配ってもらえたので食べる予定のなかった私には嬉しかったです。
次はまた、雨季や干潮過ぎる日にちは外して行きたいと思います。

It was my first time participating in Heaven's Sea!!
Unfortunately, the weather was quite cold that day, but the staff were very kind, and I had a great time!
I did get stung by a jellyfish right at the end, but thanks to them applying medicine right away, there were no lasting effects♪
Next time I participate, I want to go when it's warm... haha.
天国の海初参加でした!!
この日はあいにくの天気でとても寒かったですが
スタッフの方がとても親切で楽しめました!
また最後の最後にくらげにかまれてしまいましたが
すぐに薬を塗ってくれたおかげで
後も残りませんでした♪
次回参加する際には、あったかーいときに行きたいです・・・笑

The location is fantastic (you can see Kualoa Ranch, famous for movie shoots, in the background of the sandy beach!), and the friendliness of the staff was outstanding. I definitely recommend using a waterproof camera to take plenty of memorable photos. One thing to note is that you will get sunburned, so please apply sunscreen generously in advance.
ロケーションは最高(砂浜のバックには、映画撮影でも有名なクアロア牧場が見えます!)、また、スタッフの皆さんのフレンドリーさも抜群でした。ぜひ、防水カメラを使って、思い出の写真をいっぱいとることをお勧めします。一点、注意点は、やはり日焼けしますので、日焼け止めはこれでもかという具合に事前に塗っておいてください。

I wasn't sure what Sandbar would be like, but it was simply beautiful.
The early morning plan had fewer participants, so it became a recommendation, but it turned out well. The reason is that you need to be prepared for the cold in the morning.
According to the locals, it gets cold after October, so it's not highly recommended.
We were fortunate with the weather, but recently in Hawaii, there has been a lot of rain, so be prepared for disappointing weather...
The clear sea under the blue sky is the best!
サンドバーがどんなものかわからずの参加でしたが、
ただただキレイの一言でした。
早朝プランが人数足らず、おすすめになってしまったのですが良かったです。
理由は朝は寒さの覚悟が必要だから。
現地の人曰く、10月過ぎは寒くなりあまりお勧めでないとのこと。
天気に恵まれたので幸いですが、
最近のハワイは雨続きなので、残念な天気の場合は覚悟が・・
青い空の下の澄んだ海は最高ですよ。

I participated in the afternoon tour.
I joined with high expectations after reading everyone's experiences, and it did not disappoint! The staff were all kind, and their stories were interesting, making for a fun time.
It was a bit disappointing that the sea turtle "Noboru" (laughs) didn't show up much. Also, while snorkeling was enjoyable, the water temperature was too cold...
I was able to relax while enjoying delicious BBQ with a beautiful view of the ocean! Thank you very much. I will definitely join again when I come back to Hawaii!
午後のツアーに参加しました。
みなさんの体験談を読んで期待をして参加したのですが、期待通り!スタッフの方もみなさん親切で話も面白く、楽しい時間を過ごすことができました。
ウミガメの『のぼる(笑)』はあまり姿を見せなかったので、残念です。
あとシュノーケルは楽しかったけれども、水温が冷た過ぎました・・・。
キレイな海を見ながらおいしいBBQ、リラックスできました!
ありがとうございました。
またハワイに来た時は参加させてもらいます♪

I was moved by the color of the ocean! Also, I was a bit anxious about snorkeling for the first time, but since they lend you a life jacket, I felt safe and enjoyed it. I was able to spot a sea turtle from the boat, so it feels like something good is going to happen. This time, my husband and I participated, but I think it's a tour that everyone can enjoy, whether it's with family or friends.
海の色に感動でした!また、初めてのシュノ-ケリングも不安でしたが、ライフジャケットを貸してもらえるので安心して楽しめます。ウミガメも船からだけど見つけることができたので、なんだかいいことがありそうです。今回は夫婦2人での参加でしたが、家族でも友達同士でも、みんなが楽しめるツアーだと思います。
