The boat ride to the sandbar and walking out on the sandbar was a great experience. Highly recommend it. Unfortunately, the weather could have been a little better as it rained for a bit. The crew were friendly and provided great commentary as to what to see and do as well as safety features. The snorkeling by the reef was another great experience.

I had been to Hawaii many times, so I wish I had participated earlier! I was a bit worried about the sandbar and shooting for the first time, but once I went, I had no worries and just enjoyed it! It was fun, friendly, and smooth. The lunch was delicious, and the staff were cheerful, making for a fulfilling day. I will definitely participate again.
HAWAIIへは何度も行っていたからこそ!もっと早くに参加して居ればよかったと思いまいした。初めてのサンドバーとシューティングで心配もありましたが、行ってみれば何の心配もなくEnjoy!でした。楽しく、親切にスムーズでした。ランチも美味しく、スタッフさん達も明るく充実の一日でした。また、参加させて頂きます。

The weather had been nice, so I was looking forward to it, but the water clarity wasn't very high. Okinawa and Guam are much prettier. I did encounter a sea turtle, but due to the low water clarity, I couldn't see it very clearly. There were some fish, but it didn't feel like there were many.
天気も良い日が続いていたので期待していきましたが、あまり透明度が高くなかったです。沖縄やグアムの方が綺麗。
ウミガメにも出会えましたが、海の透明度が低いので、あまりクリアには見えませんでした。
お魚さんもいるにはいましたが、たくさんいる感じではなかったです。

I had a wonderful half-day at the dreamlike sandbar, even though I was a bit anxious about bringing my baby. Everyone was very friendly, and I truly enjoyed the experience!
I was thrilled to swim with the sea turtles that come to work every day (laughs). They were so friendly, and my child was excited when a turtle came close and touched me!
The snorkeling took us to some really deep spots, but for small children, they provided large boogie boards with windows (for a fee) to take them along. They also made sure that both parents could participate separately, showing great attention to detail so that everyone could enjoy their time.
Even if you're not confident in swimming, there are other activities available (like paddle boarding), and it's a great recommendation for those who want to try a little bit of everything—walking on the sandbar, snorkeling, and swimming with the sea turtles! The lunch was delicious too (^ - ^).
Although the calendar indicated low tide, we couldn't walk on the beach, so I might have misunderstood how to read it, or perhaps it was just a low tide that didn't expose the sand. Also, it was just before the jellyfish warning period, but we did see a few jellyfish. It's nature, so that's a bit tricky.
All in all, it was a fun experience! Thank you!
憧れのサンドバー、赤ちゃん連れの参加で少し不安でしたが、皆さんとてもフレンドリーで楽しい半日を過ごさせていただきました!
毎日出勤してくる(笑)海亀さんと一緒に泳げたのが感動でした。とても人懐こい亀さんで、海亀さんが近寄ってきて僕に触ったよ!!とこどもが興奮していました。
シュノーケリングも、すごく深いところを行くのですが、小さな子供は窓がついた大きなビート板のようなもの(有料)に載せて連れていけたり、両親がそれぞれで参加できるように配慮してくださっていたり、参加した人が皆楽しんで帰れるような細やかな気配りが随所感じられて素晴らしかったです。
泳ぎに自信がなくても他に遊ぶ道具(パドルボート?とか)があったりしますし、サンドバーを歩いてみたい、シュノーケリングもちょっとしたい、他のアクティビティにも興味があるし、海亀さんとも泳ぎたい!!という、あれこれ少しずつ体験したい方にオススメです!お昼ご飯も美味しかったです(^-^)
カレンダーでは引き潮っぽかったのに砂浜は歩けませんでしたので、カレンダーの見方を間違えたのか、引き潮でも砂浜の出ない引き具合だったのか。あと、くらげ注意のギリギリ手前の日程だったのですが、少しくらげがいました。自然のことなので、その辺は難しいですね。
何はともあれ楽しかったです!ありがとうございました!

Overall this was not one of the better snorkel experiences. The boat was too crowded, with 61 snorkelers. The right size for the boat should have been about 40. Especially crowded at the start where people were not allowed on the top deck when leaving port.
The crew try their best to provide a good time. They are energetic and enthusiastic.
Food option was another issue. Basically you get either a cheeseburger or veggie cheeseburger. No other choices. I hate cheese. Since food is pre-made, there is no opportunity for a simple hamburger. Drinks are either water or watered down lemonade, served in tiny cups. Should have had more variety and larger cups. You also can get a bag of chips.
Swimming with the dolphin is basically everyone jump in the water, look down to see a couple dolphins swim by, and then jump right back in the boat.
Snorkeling was not rushed, but the site did not have many fish or varieties of fish.
Water slide was fun. Much more fun than snorkeling.
Aloha
I am sorry that conditions were less than ideal on your tour.
Our boat is actually certified for 97 passengers. We will talk to our staff about openinig up the top deck from the begining. Usually for larger groups we do allow that. There should be room for everyone to move around comfortably from the onset.
We have a no cheese option for both the beef and veggie burger. We are constantly trying to improve our program. We actually just got our Liquor License and have been discussing different beverage options.
The swim with the dolphins and snorkeling vary based on conditions and their behavior. Ideally we like to have longer, closer views of the animals in their natural enviornment. Usually we see turtles and a variety of fish. Occassionally other cool sea life like eels, rays and even monk seals.
We are glad you enjoyed the slide. And hope you can come back with us sometime so we an make the experience and memory better for you.
Kind regards

I had been curious about it for a long time, and this was my first time participating. The sandbar is a wonderful place made up of coral deposits, and standing there gave me a truly strange feeling. We took photos and played beach volleyball with other participants, and before we knew it, it was time for the BBQ hamburger lunch. The hamburgers we made ourselves, topped with pineapple and other ingredients, were exceptional when eaten on the boat.
After that, we went turtle watching from the boat, and then it was time for snorkeling at the snorkeling point. Unfortunately, the visibility wasn't that great, but we encountered turtles underwater, which was incredibly exciting. The Japanese-speaking female guide was friendly, and for some reason, it felt like my family was being slightly marked, but she helped liven up the atmosphere on the boat, and we had a great time.
ずっと気にはなっていたが、今回初めて参加しました。
サンドバーは素敵な場所でサンゴの堆積で出来ている浅瀬という事で、そこに立てば何とも不思議な感覚がありました。写真を撮ったり参加者でビーチバレーをしたりしましたが、あっと言う間にBBQハンバーガーランチとなりました。自分たちでパイナップルなどトッピングして、船の上で食べるハンバーガーは格別なものでした。
その後ウミガメのウォッチングを船上から行い、シュノーケリングポイントでシュノーケリングになりました。
残念ながら視界はそれほど良くありませんでしたが、水中でもウミガメに遭遇し、大興奮でした。
日本語ガイドの女性の方も、気さくな方で、何故か我が家族が少しマークされていた感はありますが、船上も盛り上げていただき、楽しいひと時を過ごせました。

The weather was great, and we were able to see a very beautiful sandbar! The snorkeling spot had strong winds and the water was a bit murky, but we were able to see some fish. The sandbar was deeper than I expected, about knee-deep. I checked a site that predicts the tides to decide when to go, but there were days that seemed deeper, so I think it would be good to confirm and choose a day within the possible range.
天気に恵まれ、とても綺麗なサンドバーが見られました!シュノーケリングのポイントは風が強く少し海は濁りが強かったですが、魚は見ることができました。サンドバーはひざ下くらいの深さで思ったよりも深かったです。潮の満ち引きを予測するサイトを見て決めましたが、もっと深そうな日もあったので、可能な範疇で確認して行く日を決められるといいと思います。

A breathtaking spot often seen in TV shows and guidebooks! I wanted to go to the sandbar, so I signed up.
It was definitely the right choice! I highly recommend it!!
On my boat, Justin kept the energy up and it was a lot of fun. I tend to get seasick, so I took some motion sickness medication before joining. It didn't rock too much, so it wasn't a problem. The lunch on the boat was delicious too!
The sandbar had cloudy skies with occasional sunny breaks, and I took a lot of photos.
It would have been even better if it had been clear!
I had a great time snorkeling and paddleboarding.
I even got to see a sea turtle!!

There was a bit of trouble with the operating company at the meeting point. We arrived at the meeting location more than five minutes before the scheduled time. Then, a flashy bus with the "Dolphin & You" logo passed right in front of us, and thinking we had been left behind, we hurried to chase after it, but it just kept going. Since we had minimal luggage and didn't have our smartphones, we had no choice but to return to the hotel, where we received a call from the operating company... They said they had come to pick us up at the meeting point but since we weren't there, we could no longer participate in the tour.
Actually, the bus we chased after was a different bus picking up Western guests, while Japanese guests were supposed to be picked up by a smaller van (a plain white bus without the operating company's name or logo), which apparently arrived quite late on the day of the tour. Despite this, the operating company said, "Since this is a cancellation on your part, we cannot issue a refund. If you want to participate, please take a taxi to the harbor." I thought it was unreasonable to ask us to take a taxi to a location that takes an hour by car, and when I expressed my frustration asking, "Is this really our responsibility???" they reluctantly agreed to send someone to pick us up.
On the morning of the tour, a confirmation call was made to the hotel, but the staff member was not fluent in Japanese and did not provide detailed information during the prior call. Therefore, I recommend confirming what kind of bus will come to pick you up on the day of the tour.
Once we got on the boat, I thought the staff members were very kind and helpful. There were also staff members who spoke Japanese fluently. They were very high-energy, which might be a bit overwhelming if you’re feeling unwell. In my case, I think the strong winds contributed to my discomfort, and I felt that snorkeling might be tough for small children... My child cried a lot during the first attempt and couldn't handle it. Dolphins can only be seen underwater as dark shadows, so it might be better for children to see them from the boat.
I also brought an underwater camera, but it's quite difficult unless you're a good swimmer. Regarding clothing, I wore a rash guard and tights, and I think that was sufficient without needing to rent a wetsuit (the rental wetsuits are short types). As for belongings, you should definitely borrow a bath towel from the hotel and bring it with you. It can get a bit chilly on the way back, so it's better to take off wet rash guards and dry off with the bath towel before putting on a dry shirt.
As for tipping, which can be confusing for Japanese people, it didn't seem like it was strictly enforced. The Q&A section on the operating company's website also mentions that a small gesture is sufficient. I hope this information is helpful to everyone.
集合時に運営会社と少しとトラブルになりました。
私たちは集合場所に待ち合わせ時間の5分以上前から来ていました。
すると「ドルフィン&ユー」のロゴが描かれた派手めのバスが目の前を通り過ぎてしまったので、置いて行かれたと思い、慌てて追いかけたのですが、そのまま行ってしまいました。
荷物も最小限で、スマホも持っていなかったので、仕方なくホテルに戻ったところ、運営会社から電話が・・・。集合場所にピックアップにきたが、いないのでもうツアーには参加できないとのことでした。
実は我々が追いかけたバスは、欧米人客を拾っていく別便のバスで、日本人客はそれよりは小さいバンのようなバス(運営会社名もロゴもない、真っ白なバスです)が拾っていくことになってたらしいのですが、当日それが待ち合わせ時間よりもかなり遅れてきたのです。
・・・にも関わらず、運営会社がいうには、「そちらの都合のキャンセルなので、返金には応じられない。参加したければ、タクシーでハーバーまで来てください。」とのことでした。
車で1時間もかかるところに、タクシーで来いというのもどうかと思いますし、さすがに「それってこちらの責任なのですか???」と憤ったところ、渋々なんとか迎えにきてくれました。
当日の朝に確認の電話がホテルに掛かってきますが、そのときのスタッフは日本語が堪能ではなく、事前の電話でそこまで詳細な情報までは教えてはくれませんでした。
ですので、当日はどんなバスが迎えにくるのかを必ず確認された方がいいと思います。
船に乗ってからは、スタッフの皆さんとても親切で良かったと思います。
日本語がとても流暢なスタッフもいました。
とてもハイテンションなので、気分が悪くなるとちょっとしんどいかもしれません。
私の場合は、結構風が強かったのも原因かと思いますが、シュノーケリングは小さいお子さんは厳しいかも・・・という印象でした。
うちの子は、1回目で大泣きでダメでした。
イルカは水中で見ても、黒い影のようにしか見えないので、子供は船上で見た方がいいかもしれません。
あと水中カメラを持っていきましたが、泳ぎが得意な方でないとなかなか難しいです。
あと服装ですが、私はラッシュカードとタイツをはいて行きましたが、ウエットスーツ(貸しウエットスーツは短パンタイプです)を借りなくても、これで十分だと思いました。
荷物としては、バスタオルはホテルで借りて必ず持っていくべきでしょう。やはり帰りはちょっと寒いので、ぬれたラッシュガードなどは脱いで、バスタオルで体を拭って、乾いたシャツ等を着る方がいいと思います。
日本人が戸惑うチップですが、そんなにきっちり払っている感じはなかったです。運営会社HPのQ&Aにも書いてありますが、気持ち程度でいいと思います。
皆さんの参考になればと思います。

The weather was wonderful, and the color of the sea was just as I expected! I was worried if my elderly mother would enjoy it, but when we got off the boat and walked in the shallow water, she was satisfied to see sea turtles and fish up close.
I was the only one who went snorkeling, but the sea turtles came so close that I could almost reach out to them! It was a happy moment where we could gaze at each other without touching.
If I have the chance to go to Hawaii again, I would love to participate!

Thank you for joining the morning tour. On that day, the tide was at -0.1ft, exposing the coral reef rocks, so unfortunately, we could only explore the inside. However, swimming in the inner area can be enjoyable as you can see the fish up close. I hope next time we can show you the sea turtles.

Not only did I get to see the long-awaited sea turtles, but they also came up to me. I was told that since they are an endangered species, touching them would result in a fine, but the turtles were so friendly that they came up to me, and I couldn't avoid touching them.
For lunch, we had croissants filled with ham and cheese, macaroni salad, meatballs, and pineapple, which was okay. I was worried about motion sickness, so I paid $20 for a wristband. Its effectiveness was questionable. I would like more detailed information about Kailua Town. The shower was cold.

Seeing the turtles was amazing and the snorkeling was fantastic as well! Plenty of really nice equipment, instruction, safety always a priority with this crew! I would recommend this excursion and experience 100%! Also- a nice tour bus picks you up at your hotel or close to it if you need a ride! Fantastic transportation. Very well run and organized!

Disappointing point
- Since the tour arrives in the afternoon, the sea was high tide and the sandy beach was not visible. It might be better to think that this tour is not one where the sandy beach is exposed.

The tour was conducted with two boats, one of which gathered Japanese participants and provided guidance in Japanese. The guide was a Japanese person who was always smiling and very attentive.
When we arrived at the sandbar, we spotted two sea turtles, and several more came by afterward.
Next, we moved to the snorkeling point, where we were able to see about five sea turtles from the boat.
The snorkeling point didn't have strong waves, so if you can swim reasonably well, I recommend trying it without a life jacket!
The deeper areas had more fish and were beautiful! Additionally, I was able to find a sea turtle resting in the coral, and I managed to take an amazing photo! I had to dive about 4 meters, which was quite challenging, but it became my best memory in Hawaii.
I want to go again!
2隻の船でツアーを行い、1隻に日本人を集めて日本語でガイドを行ってくれました。
ガイドをしてくれたのは日本人の方で終始笑顔で丁寧な対応をしてくれました。
サンドバーに着いた時にもウミガメが目視で2匹確認できて、その後もサンドバーに何匹か来ていました。
その後はシュノーケリングポイントに移動するのですが、船から5匹くらいのウミガメを見つけられました。
シュノーケリングポイントは波もそこまで強くないので、泳ぎがある程度できる人はライフジャケット無しでチャレンジしてみてください!
深いところの方が魚も多くて綺麗でした!
また、サンゴの隙間で休んでいるウミガメを見つけられて最高の一枚を撮ることができました!

We couldn't ask for a better way to spend our last day in Oahu.
This tour was so relaxing and fun. Everyone was so friendly including staff and other participants.
The Sand bar was so exciting, and the turtles were cute. and snorkelling amazing.
Everything is well organised.
One advice to people who go on this tour -
Go to the bathroom before boarding the ship,
since the bathrooms are not that convenient.
but they are there if you need them :-)

The sandbar was disappointing because the water level was high, but snorkeling was great as I got to see sea turtles and schools of fish. Additionally, I had the opportunity to try stand-up paddleboarding and kayaking, which made for a very fulfilling experience. The staff were all kind and entertaining, which was wonderful. Thank you very much.
サンドバーは水位が高くて残念だったけど
シュノーケルは海ガメにあえたり、魚の群れに
出会えたりしてとっても良かったです。

It was a shame that the weather wasn't clear on the day, but I had a wonderful time with a cheerful guide! If I have the chance to go to Hawaii again, I would like to participate when the weather is clear and the tide is low. Thank you!☆
当日は快晴でなかったのが残念でしたが、愉快なガイドさんとともに楽しいひとときを過ごさせてもらいました!
またハワイに行く機会があったときは、快晴&潮が引いてるときを狙って参加したいです。
ありがとうございました☆

It was amazing.
It was my first experience, and I was continuously moved.
The beautiful sea, the cute sea turtles, and the fun staff.
The snorkeling had clear explanations and safety considerations, which made me feel very secure.
I don't get to go to Hawaii often, but this is one activity I want to experience again next time.
Thank you very much.
最高でした。
初めての体験でしたが、感動の連続でした。
綺麗な海、可愛いウミガメ、楽しいスタッフ
シュノーケルも分かりやすい説明と安全面の配慮がとても安心でした。
なかなかハワイ行けないけど、次回も体験したいアクティビティのひとつです。
ありがとうございました。

Despite being warned multiple times, we mistakenly went to the wrong meeting place, but they were very kind to us. (The Hilton Hawaiian Village is really something to watch out for. The Grand Islander and Grand Waikikian can be confusing.)
Our guide, Chieko, was Japanese and very kind and attentive. Unlike a previous snorkeling tour where I had a foreign guide and struggled to communicate, which made me feel scared when I cramped up, we were able to enjoy ourselves as a couple this time.
It's also great that we could take photos with a GoPro and receive them later. I brought an underwater camera, but I was so focused on swimming that I couldn't take good pictures, so this truly became a lifelong memory. Thank you very much.
散々注意されていたにも関わらず集合場所を間違えた私たちに大変親切に対応していただきました。(ヒルトンハワイアンビレッジは本当に要注意。グランドアイランダーとグランドワイキキアンが紛らわしい。)
ガイドのチエコさんは日本人でとても親切丁寧な方で、以前どこかのシュノーケルツアーで外国人ガイドで言葉があまり通じず、足がつったりしても伝えられず怖い思いをしたようなことは全然なく、夫婦で楽しむことができました。
ゴープロで写真を撮ってあとでいただけるのもありがたいですね、水中カメラを持参したのですが、泳ぐのに必死でうまく撮れなかったので、本当に一生の記念、です。ありがとうございました。
Thank you for joining the tour in July. It was a morning tour, but due to a mix-up at the meeting point, we couldn't find you two, and you ended up joining the afternoon tour instead. Just like in the morning, it was great that you were able to see the turtles in the afternoon as well. Both of you did an excellent job. I'm glad you enjoyed the photos too. Please do consider repeating the tour when you come back to Hawaii. You are always welcome.
Thank you very much. Mahalo!!
7月のツアーにお越しいただき、ありがとうございます。この日は午前のツアーだったのですが、集合場所の間違いでお二人を見つけることが出来ず、午後ツアーにお越しいただいた日でしたね。午前同様、午後にも亀さんに会うことができて良かったですね。お二人とも大変お上手に出来ていましたよ。お写真も喜んで頂けてうれしいです。ぜひまたハワイにお越しの時にはツアーにリピートしてくださいね。いつでも大歓迎いたします。
本当にありがとうございました。Mahalo!!

Although the visibility of the sea wasn't great due to the rain the day before, the emerald green and cobalt blue waters sparkling in the sunlight were truly beautiful. We encountered many sea turtles, and my husband even had moments where he swam close enough to them while being careful not to touch! Our guide, Yukiko, was also impressive just to watch, and she is a big reason why I want to join this tour again and meet her!
前日雨だったため海の透明度はいまいちとのことでしたが、きらきら太陽の光が輝くエメラルドグリーン、コバルトブルーの海は本当にきれいでした♡
ウミガメにもたくさん会え、主人はシュノーケリングスポットで触れちゃわないように気をつけるくらい近くで一緒に泳げる瞬間も!
ガイドのユキコさんも見ているだけでかっこ気持ちよく、またこのツアーに参加して会いに行きたい!と思う大きな一因です。

The day of participation was unfortunately marked by cloudy skies and intermittent rain, but when the sun peeked through for a moment, it was absolutely beautiful! We played beach volleyball, and even though we couldn't communicate with people from other countries, it felt like we connected through sports, making it a really enjoyable time! The hamburger we had for lunch was also incredibly delicious! We were able to see a lot of fish while snorkeling! I think it would be stunning on a sunny day, so I would love to participate again!
参加日はあいにくの曇りとパラパラ雨の繰り返しでしたが、一瞬晴れ間がさすと最高にきれいでした!
ビーチバレーをやりましたが他国の方たちと言葉は通じませんが、スポーツで気持ちが繋がった感じがしてとっても楽しい時間でした!
お昼に食べたハンバーガーもすごくおいしかったです!
シュノーケリングもお魚がたくさん見れました!
晴れたら最高にきれいだと思うのでまた参加したいです!

Thank you for participating in the tour. The weather was nice, but it was right at high tide, so there were some waves and the visibility wasn't great that day. However, after practicing at the keyhole, we were able to spot a sea turtle right away because it came in with the waves during high tide. That's one of the good points about high tide.
Next time, if you choose to come during low tide, you should be able to enjoy Hanauma Bay with better visibility and lots of beautiful fish. We look forward to your next visit to Hanauma Bay. Thank you very much. Mahalo!!
この度はツアーにご参加いただき、有難うございます。お天気は良かったのですが丁度満ち潮の時間帯でしたので、波もあり透明度は良くなかった日でしたね。ですが、キーホールで練習後、すぐにウミガメさんを見つけられたのは満ち潮の波に乗ってウミガメさんがインサイドに入ってきてくれたからなんですよ。これが満ち潮の良い点でもあります。
ぜひ次回は引き潮の時を選んでお越しいただければ、透明度が良くて綺麗なお魚さんがいっぱいのハナウマ湾を楽しんでいただけるはずです。
またハナウマ湾にお越しいただけることをお待ちしております。ありがとうございました。Mahalo!!
