We had the best time during our time at the Kaneohe Bay Sandbar Ocean Sports Adventure. The live music (an experience in itself) really sets the tone for the day. The staff were friendly and helpful. One of the crew members told me to step on him to get into the kayak. Because he was shorter, he was underwater, while I used him as stairs. And we actually had to do this twice, because I flipped out on the first try. We purchased the package that included the bumper tube ride, and I must admit I misjudged our driver, who I think was the boat captain. For some reason, I was under the impression that she was going to take us us a mild tour around the bay. This was a prime example of don’t judge a book by its cover. Let me say this clearly: la capitana was all throttle. Honestly, the tubing was the best part of my day. I would recommend this to all. Great time.

First of all, TOMO, who came to pick us up in the morning, was very cheerful, friendly, kind, and funny, making the travel time from the hotel to the shop incredibly enjoyable. We were blessed with great weather, and the staff told us it was the best day for SUP this year! When we set out on the SUP, we could feel the beauty of the ocean, the blueness of the sky, and the gentle breeze up close, making it a wonderful SUP experience. During the SUP, we were very lucky to encounter a honu, which became the best memory. In the afternoon, we rented bicycles and cycled around Lanikai Beach and the town of Kailua. All the staff were very kind to us, and we had the best day. If I visit Hawaii again, I definitely want to try kayaking at this shop next time. Thank you very much!
まずは朝のピックアップに来ていただいたTOMOさんがとっても明るくて、親しみやすくて、親切で、面白くて、ホテルからショップまでの移動時間も最高に楽しかったです。
お天気にも恵まれスタッフさんからは今年1番のSUP日和よ!と教えてもらい、いざSUPで海にくり出すと、海の美しさと空の青さと微風を間近で感じることが出来、素晴らしいSUP体験でした。
SUPの途中ではとてもラッキーなことにホヌにも出会え最高の思い出になりました。
午後からは自転車を借りてラニカイビーチやカイルアの街中をサイクリングしました。
スタッフさんみなさんに親切にしていただいて、最高の1日を過ごすことができました。

The pickup car arrived about 15 minutes after the meeting time. (I was a bit worried, but) I think it's best to relax and wait, thinking it's HAWAII TIME. Despite the early morning, the driver was in high spirits, which lifted my mood!
If you're worried about seasickness, it's better to take some medication beforehand. Our family all took it, so we didn't experience any seasickness at all, but about 4 to 5 people were unable to move due to it.
When we spotted dolphins, we jumped in one by one. Those who jumped in earlier had a higher chance of seeing them, but those who didn't see them were prioritized to jump in next, so everyone was able to see the dolphins.
We were very satisfied to see both dolphins and sea turtles!
All the staff were very kind, and I definitely want to participate again when I go to Hawaii.
It gets cold when you come back onto the boat from the sea, so a jacket and a bath towel are essential.
Thank you to all the staff.

Those who wanted could enter the sea offshore, and wearing life jackets was optional, allowing everyone to enjoy as they pleased. I highly recommend the sunset cruise.

During snorkeling, we were able to see many turtles up close. The staff kindly taught my wife, who is not a strong swimmer, and they also kept a watchful eye on her, which made us feel safe. Above all, both the captain and the staff spoke Japanese well, and there were also Japanese staff members, which added to our sense of security. This is a recommended activity if you visit Hawaii. However, due to the tides, it's not guaranteed that sandbars will appear as shown in the promotional photos, so you might need to be a little cautious about that.
シュノーケリングでは、沢山の亀が近くで見られました。泳ぎの苦手な妻にも親切に教えてくれて、また、安全を見守ってくれているので安心です。何より、キャプテンもスタッフも日本語が上手な上に日本人スタッフもいて、安心度合いが違います。ハワイに行ったらオススメのアクティビティです。ただし、潮の満ち引きの関係もあるのでイメージ写真の様なサンドバーが現れるとは限りませんのでその辺は少し注意が必要かもしれません。

I participated in this tour during my honeymoon in Hawaii for the first time. I compared many sandbar tours, but I decided on this one because it offered both sandbar and snorkeling with plenty of time to enjoy both in the best conditions! In the end, it was a great choice!!!
There were two boats, one with Japanese support and one with English support, and the explanations in Japanese made it even more enjoyable!
The sandbar was just at high tide, so the water was about waist-deep, but it was very beautiful, and the staff took lots of photos for us! The time spent there was more than enough, and we even had time to practice snorkeling!
After that, we were taken to a spot where we could see sea turtles, and even though it was from the boat, we could see them perfectly!
Finally, we had the snorkeling experience. We were able to see many fish while circling around a large coral reef. They provided fins and life jackets, making it very enjoyable even for beginners, so I highly recommend it. There was plenty of time for this as well, and it was fantastic.
The hamburger for lunch was, of course, excellent. By the way, I wore marine shoes, but I ended up taking them off to enjoy the experience, so they weren't necessary!
Lastly, the staff member Yukiko was very kind! It was the best! Thank you so much♪
ハネムーンで初めてのハワイで参加しました。
サンドバーツアーは他にもあり、めちゃくちゃ比較検討しましたが、サンドバー、シュノーケリングで場所を変えるし、時間もたっぷりとってあったので、どちらもベストな状態で楽しめるのではないかと思ったのが決め手でした!結果、大正解!!!
日本語対応のボートと英語対応のボートと2台あり、いろんな説明を日本語でしてくださったのもより楽しめてとても良かったです!!!
サンドバーはちょうど満潮のタイミングだったので、腰くらいまでありましたが、とても綺麗で、スタッフの方がたくさん写真を撮ってくれます!滞在時間も十分すぎるくらいで、シュノーケリングの練習する時間もありました!
そのあとウミガメが見れるスポットに連れてっていただき、船の上からですが、バッチリ見れました!
最後はシュノーケリング体験です。大きな珊瑚礁の周りをまわりながら、たくさんのお魚を見ることができました。フィンとライフジャケットを貸していただき、初心者でもとっても楽しめるのでオススメです。こちらもたっぷり時間があり、最高でした。
ランチのハンバーグももちろん最高です。
ちなみにマリンシューズを履いて行きましたが、脱いで楽しんだので、不要でした!
最後に、スタッフのyukikoさんはとっても親切でした!最高!ありがとうございました♪

There was no guide who could speak Japanese, and basic English communication skills were necessary, but even though I couldn't speak any English at all, they kindly explained things while using a language translation app on their phone and actively engaged in communication, which made it really enjoyable for me. That said, it's definitely true that being able to speak English would enhance the experience even more.
I recommend participating in clothes that you wouldn't mind throwing away. The red dirt stains won't come out even after washing. I participated in a white shirt that I planned to discard, and after the event, it turned into a reddish-brown shirt. (It also got soaked in the rain...)
The tour runs on really bumpy roads from a certain point, so it's better for people with neck or back issues to skip it. (I think there was something in the consent form before participation that mentioned self-responsibility.)
I'm not sure if it was because the weather was rainy when we participated, but the goggles provided had gaps where water could get in, and they became hard to see through due to dirt, while we were going at quite a speed (about 20 km/h), making it difficult to keep up. Especially for those with contact lenses, it's hard to keep your eyes open. (I was one of them.)
There are no shower rooms, just a place to wash your face and hands, and if you want to take a shower, you'll need to go to a nearby beach.
日本語を話せるガイドがおらず、基本的な英語でのコミュニケーション能力が必要とありましたが、全く英語が出来ない自分にも嫌な顔せず、携帯で言語変換しながら優しく説明してくれたり、コミュニケーションも積極的にとってくれて盛り上げてもらい、すごく楽しめました。
とはいえ、やはり英語はできるほうが更に楽しめることは間違いないです。
服装は本当に捨ててもいい服で参加する事をお勧めします。赤土での汚れは洗濯しても取れません。
自分は捨てる予定の白シャツで参加し、参加後には赤茶色のシャツになってました。(雨が降って染み込んだのもありますが…)
ツアーは途中から本当に凸凹の道を走るので、首や腰の悪い人はやめた方がいいです。(参加前の承諾書にも自己責任でみたいなのが書いてあったと思います。)
自分達が参加した時の天気が雨だったからなのかわかりませんが、貸してもらえるゴーグルだと隙間から入ってきたり、ゴーグルが汚れで見え辛くなっているのに、結構なスピード(約20Km/h)で走るのでついて行くのが大変でした。
特にコンタクトの方は目が開けてられないです。(自分がそうでした)
シャワールームはなく、顔や手を洗うぐらいの場所があるだけで、シャワーを浴びたければ近くのビーチまで行く必要があります。

This is an activity that I definitely recommend everyone to experience when visiting Hawaii. It was an amazing experience to see the Hawaiian scenery from above the ocean!
There was no pressure to tip, as it was more of a suggestion at the time of disembarkation, but since it was such a wonderful experience, I decided to give a tip!
Thanks to the advice from everyone, I took motion sickness medication and didn't feel nauseous at all! I put my tip, credit card, and smartphone in a waterproof phone case and hung it around my neck while holding my GoPro in my hand as I jumped! I only brought a beach towel for other items. The luggage goes in the boat's storage, and since there are staff members around, I felt that my belongings wouldn't be stolen while we were flying.
ハワイに来たらぜひみなさんに体験いただきたいアクティビティです。ハワイの景色を海の上から見れて、とっても最高な体験になりました!
チップは下車時によかったらチップお願いします的な感じで強制感はありませんでしたが、とても素敵な体験ができたので、お渡ししました!
みなさんのアドバイスを見て酔い止めを飲んだおかげか、特に酔いませんでした!
防水スマホケースにチップとクレカとスマホ入れて首から下げて、ゴープロを手に持って飛びました〜!そのほか持ちのものは、バスタオルくらいにしました。荷物はボートの荷物入れ?に入れますし、スタッフの方もいるので、飛んでる間に荷物が盗まれる事はないかなと思いました。

I was amazed by the beautiful fish that were very close by.

Yukiko, who guided us in Japanese, was very interesting, and the captain and all the staff were kind. The hamburger lunch was also very delicious. It was the end of September, but it was quite cold, so it's a good idea to bring a warm jacket for comfort.

On our honeymoon, we wanted to experience the essence of Hawaii on our first day, so we participated in this show!
First, we were excited to receive leis around our necks! When we sat at our table, there were two other Japanese couples already there.
As soon as we sat down, a woman with a ukulele appeared, inserting a $10 bill into her instrument. After playing a couple of songs, she immediately asked, "Do you know tip?" which, while feeling somewhat American, was a bit of a letdown. I wondered how much tip we would be expected to pay before even eating (laughs). The other Japanese couples at the same table seemed a bit taken aback.
After that, we enjoyed our meal while watching hula dancing. The food and the dance were not bad, but I felt that we shouldn't expect the same level of hospitality as in Japan.
The following show was of very high quality and quite lively. The dancers all looked like they were having fun, and it was really enjoyable to watch.
At the end, I got a photo and autograph from Michael. This was a nice keepsake!
I think once is enough for this experience, but since the location is good, participating in the show just to feel the Hawaiian vibe might be worth it!
ハネムーン、着いた初日にハワイらしさを味わいたく、このショーに参加しました!
まずはレイを首にかけて貰ってテンションアップ!テーブルに着席すると同じく日本人カップルがもう2組いました。
着席するやいなや、ウクレレを持ったおばさんがウクレレに10ドル紙幣を挟み登場。2曲ほど弾いたあとに、Do you know tip〜? とすかさず聞いてきて、ある意味アメリカらしさを感じつつも興醒めしました。ご飯を食べる前からこれか、一体いくらチップを払わされるんだろう…と(笑) 同テーブルの日本人カップルは若干みんな引き気味でした。
その後はフラダンスを観ながらご飯を食べました。ダンスもご飯も悪くはありませんが、日本ほどのホスピタリティを求めて行ってはいけないかなと感じました。
その後のショーはとてもクオリティも高く、盛り上がりました。ダンサーさん達もみんな楽しそうに踊っていて、観ていてとても楽しかったです。
最後にマイケルに写真とサインをしてもらいました。これは良い記念になりました!
1度行けばもういいかなと思いますが、まぁ立地も良いですしハワイらしさを感じるにはとりあえずショーだけ参加するのはありかもね!と思います。

We went out to sea by boat and experienced parasailing. The boat we joined had 10 people, all Japanese couples. The captain and two crew members were very lively and kept the energy high.
The round trip to the offshore location was quite bumpy, so if you're prone to seasickness, please take medication beforehand.
Basically, the communication is in English, but they guide you step by step, so it's not difficult. The time spent in the air is about 5 minutes, but it was surprisingly high and felt great.
They will ask if you want to take photos on the boat, but you can confirm the photos after disembarking before payment. If you have an iPhone, you can transfer the data on the spot and receive an SD card.
Due to the weak yen and high prices, Hawaii has become quite an expensive place, but considering the cost-effectiveness, it's a satisfying activity.
船で沖合に行き、パラセーリングを体験します。我々が参加する船は、5組10人、すべて日本人のカップルでした。ノリがいい船長と船員の2名がテンション高めに盛り上げてくれます。
沖合までの往復はかなり揺られので船酔いしやすい方は事前にお薬を飲んでください。
基本的には英語でのやり取りとなりますが、手取り足取り教えてくれるので難しいことはありません。空中にいる時間は5分程度ですが、想像以上に高く、気持ちが良かったです。
船の上で写真撮影の有無を聞かれるのですが、会計は下船後に写真を確認してからで大丈夫です。iPhoneであれば、その場でデータを転送のうえ、SDカードがもらえます。
円安と物価高で非常にハワイはお金がかかる場所になってしまいましたが、費用対効果を考えても満足できるアクティビティです。

I used the hotel shuttle to Honolulu Airport. The driver was unfriendly and, unusually for Hawaii, did not greet us. The handling of the suitcases was rough, and they were crammed into a space that was already too small. The bus was completely full and overcrowded, and we were delayed significantly due to passengers who did not stick to the schedule during pickups, which was quite frustrating. Unfortunately, the last day of my Hawaii trip turned into a very unpleasant memory, which is really disappointing.

The high-speed boat heading out to sea was truly refreshing! From a higher vantage point than I imagined, I could see the beautiful ocean and the city of Waikiki all the way to Diamond Head, and the view was absolutely stunning. The staff were also fun and friendly, speaking a bit of broken Japanese like "Bocchan, daijoubu?" I was completely dropped into the sea, but it was not scary at all and was actually a lot of fun. It was my first time parasailing, and I made the most wonderful memories! Thank you very much.

想像より高い位置から美しい海とワイキキの街からダイヤモンドヘッドまでが一望出来、その眺めはまさに絶景でした。
スタッフの方々も楽しく親切で「ボチャン、大丈夫?」などと片言楽の日本語も。
ボチャン〜と思いっきり海に落とされましたが、それも怖いことはな全く楽しかったです。初パラセーリングでしたが最高に素敵な思い出が出来ました!
ありがとうございました。

I went at the timing of the lowest tide during my stay, and it was about waist-deep. The staff mentioned it was shallow, so it might not be possible to see the sandy beach. However, even from a distance, the color of the sea here is completely different, which makes the journey exciting. I was wondering where we would do stand-up paddleboarding, so it was quite understandable.
The edge of this reef is a coral reef (with steep cliffs), and there are many sea turtles there. Everyone swims along with the staff, so it's safe to observe (though it gets a bit congested... (laughs)). Sometimes they come close to the surface for air! (The staff said I was lucky.) Of course, we shouldn't touch them.
Unfortunately, my camera malfunctioned halfway through, and I couldn't take any pictures of the sea turtles, which was disappointing, but I was able to remember it well, so that was enough for me.
The cheerful and energetic staff, delicious spam onigiri, and fun activities... I had a wonderful experience.
滞在中最も干潮になるタイミングで行きましたが、それで腰ぐらいの深さでした。スタッフさんは浅いよ〜っておっしゃっていたので砂浜が見えることは無いのかもしれません。ただ遠くから見てもここだけ全く海の色が違うので向かう途中からワクワクします。そもそもサップをどこでやるんだろう?と思っていたので、まあ納得でした。
この岩礁の縁は珊瑚礁になっていて(切立った崖)そこにウミガメが沢山います。スタッフさんについて皆並んで泳ぎますので危なげ無く見学できます(ちょっと渋滞しますが…(笑))たまに呼吸で浮かんで近くに来ることも!(ラッキーだよとスタッフさんに言われました)もちろん触っちゃいけません。
今回途中でカメラの調子がおかしくなってウミガメを全く撮る事ができず残念でしたが、記憶にはしっかり残せたので十分です。
明るくて元気なスタッフさん達、美味しいスパムおにぎり、楽しいアクティビティ…素晴らしい経験をさせてもらえました。
Aloha! This is Captain Bruce's Paradise of the Sea Tour. Thank you very much for participating in the tour the other day.
I sincerely apologize for not being able to encounter the sandbar with the beautiful beach that you were looking forward to. I'm also very sorry to hear that your camera was acting up.
Still, I am very pleased to hear that you had a wonderful experience. I believe the sea turtle that came close to you brought some lovely luck.
Thank you very much for the beautiful photos and your review.

楽しみにされてました砂浜の見えるサンドバーに遭遇頂けず本当に申し訳ございませんでした。またカメラの調子がおかしくなったとのことで本当に残念でしたね。
それでも素晴らしい経験とおっしゃっていただき大変嬉しく思います。近くによって来たウミガメがきっと素敵な幸運を運んでくれたかと思います。
綺麗なお写真とレビュー本当にありがとうございました。

If you arrive from Japan, you should have no problem getting to Honolulu by mid-morning or at least before evening. However, I booked my flight from Alaska, which is scheduled to arrive at 10:30 PM. As expected, there are limited pickup locations, and I was instructed to move there and call to inform them of my arrival in English to request a vehicle. I was told that there would be no staff at the arrival desk by that time.
The flight from Alaska arrived about 30 minutes early, but after picking up my luggage and exiting the arrival area, I followed the signs for Roberts' yellow sign to the pickup location, but there were no people or cars there. I thought I would have to call for a car, but I hardly speak any English and have never made a call overseas.
After a while, a local staff member with a pass around their neck passed by. They were from another company (unknown industry), but when I showed them the Roberts voucher and pointed to the phone number, they called Roberts for me. After that, the shuttle arrived in less than five minutes.
Once I got on, the driver smoothly took me to the hotel entrance without any late-night traffic. This shuttle service has some hassle with reservations, but I think it's a good service that is safe and costs about half of what a taxi would.
日本からの便なら午前中か遅くても夕方前にはホノルルに到着するので問題無いと思うが、私はアラスカから午後10時半到着予定で予約した。
案の定何ヶ所かあるピックアップ場所が限定され、そこに移動して電話で到着したむねを英語で伝えて車両を呼べと案内をもらった。もうその時間到着口の受付には係員がいないそうだ。
アラスカから搭乗した飛行機は30分ほど早く到着したが、荷物を引き取り到着口を出てロバーツの黄色い看板の案内に従ってピックアップ場所まで行ったが人も車もいない。
これはやはり電話で車を呼ばなければならないと思ったが私はほとんど英語を話せないし、海外で電話したこともない。
しばらくすると首からパスを下げた現地係員らしき人が通りかかる。他社(業種不明)の人だったがロバーツのバウチャーを見せて電話番号のところを指差したらロバーツに電話してくれ、その後は5分もしないうちに送迎車が来てくれた。
乗車してしまえば深夜の渋滞も無い道路を順調にホテル玄関前まで送ってくれた。
このシャトルサービス、予約したりちょっとめんどくさいところはあるが、タクシーに比べたら半額くらいだろうし安全で良いサービスだと思う。

I chose the day with the lowest tide during my trip to Hawaii and made a reservation, but at the lowest point, the water was up to my knees.
Since it was an early morning course, it was cold! The water felt quite cold until I got used to it.
We headed to the sandbar on two boats, and our boat spent about an hour taking photos and enjoying stand-up paddleboarding freely. The last hour was for snorkeling. We were able to see several sea turtles! They swam very close to us! It was a bit disappointing that the water where we were snorkeling was a little murky, but I was very satisfied because I got to see so many sea turtles. For those who can't swim, the guide provides solid support, so there are no issues.
On the boat, there were self-service rice balls, snacks, and drinks. I was very grateful for the hot drinks.
Most of the participants were Japanese. It became a wonderful memory!
ハワイ旅行の日程の中で1番潮の引いている日にちを選んで予約しましたが
1番浅い時で膝ぐらいまでありました。
早朝のコースだったので寒かったです!
水も慣れるまでは冷たく感じました。
2つのボートでサンドバーへ向かい、私達のボートは
最初に約1時間弱、サンドバーで写真を撮ったりSUPに乗ったりと各々自由に過ごしました。
後半の1時間弱がシュノーケリングでした。
海亀を何匹も見ることができました!すぐ近くで泳いでくれます!
シュノーケリングしていたところの海水は少し濁っていたのが残念でしたが
たくさん海亀を見ることができたので大満足です。
泳げない人はガイドさんがしっかりサポートしてくれるので問題ありません。
ボートにはセルフサービスでおにぎりとスナック、ドリンクがありました。
ホットドリンクがあったのがとてもありがたかったです。
参加者はほとんど日本人でした。
とっても良い思い出になりました!
Thank you for participating in the Captain Bruce's Paradise of the Sea tour. We sincerely apologize for not meeting your expectations regarding the sandbar and sea conditions. We truly appreciate your kind words that it still became a good memory despite those conditions. We hope that many happy moments come your way, especially for you, who encountered many sea turtles. Mahalo!!

It was slightly later than the food stall's schedule, but that's common when traveling abroad, so feel free to wait!
It's convenient because you don't have to think about tips.

The tour was mostly made up of Japanese people. There were a few crew members who could speak Japanese, and after the English explanation, there was also a Japanese explanation, so even someone like me, who is not good at English, was able to enjoy it with peace of mind. Even though I can't float with a life jacket, I was able to participate in snorkeling thanks to the life jackets provided! There was also practice time for those who are not good at swimming, so everyone, including those who said they were not good at swimming, participated. There were many fish, and I was able to swim with the honu, making it an amazing experience.
ツアーは日本人が大半でした。
クルーの人は日本語が話せる方が数名いて、英語の説明のあと、日本語の説明もあったので、英語が苦手なわたしでも安心して楽しむことが出来ました。
カナヅチで浮くことも出来ないわたしでも、ライフジャケットがあったのでシュノーケリングにも参加できました!泳ぎが苦手な人の為に練習時間もあったので、同じく泳ぎが苦手と言っていた方も含めて全員が参加していました。
魚もたくさんいて、ホヌと一緒に泳ぐことができて、最高な体験が出来ました。
Aloha! This is Captain Bruce's Paradise of the Sea Tour. Thank you very much for participating in the tour the other day.
For those who are trying snorkeling for the first time, we provide practice time to learn how to wear the mask and other essentials. Of course, since this is a water sport, it's important not to push yourself too hard, but our staff is always nearby, so please feel free to try it out like you did, Nori. I'm really happy to hear that you were able to swim with the honu.
Please come back to visit the honu again. We are looking forward to that day with all our hearts.

No matter how high the waves were, we set sail without any issues, and just being on the boat was a lot of fun. I wasn't sure how high 150 meters would be, but it was much higher than I imagined, and I could see all of Waikiki. The staff spoke English, but I could understand them through gestures, and the participants were from various countries. I'm glad I decided to join. I think there's a special meaning in doing this in Hawaii.
多少波が高くても問題なく出航し、ボートに乗っているだけでも、とても楽しかったです。
150mがどれくらいか見当がつかず参加したのですが、想像以上に高く、ワイキキが一望出来ました。
スタッフさんは英語ですが、ジェスチャーでなんとなく分かりますし、参加した方も色々な国の方ばかりでした。
思い切って参加して良かったです。
ハワイでやる事に意味があると思います。

The view of Waikiki's ocean and Diamond Head was absolutely stunning! There were some incidents, like a strong wind causing a brief interruption and me getting seasick, but the captains were experts, so I felt at ease. Thanks to the cheerful captains, it was enjoyable until the very end. The photo session I requested for $40 resulted in over 100 pictures, which I had a great time looking back on. Thank you so much!!
ワイキキの海とダイヤモンドヘッドを一望できて最高の景色でした!
風が強くなった時に一度中断したり、自分が船酔いしてしまったりとアクシデントもありましたが、キャプテン達がエキスパートなので、安心して過ごすことができました。また、陽気なキャプテン達のおかげで最後まで楽しかったです。
40ドルでお願いした写真撮影も、100枚以上撮ってくださってて、楽しく見返しました。
本当にありがとうございました!!
