Challenge yourself with SUP! SUPに挑戦！

Reviewed by: レオピョン

This was our first time participating as a couple over sixty. On the boat, we enjoyed Hawaiian songs, and the staff were very kind, communicating with us in simple Japanese since we couldn't speak English. (It's okay if you can't speak English.) There were drinks and donuts that were soft and delicious. Our main goal was to try SUP! With the staff's explanations while we were in the water, we started SUP. At first, we were nervous, but we soon got used to it and were able to ride comfortably. We had a great time kayaking and snorkeling as well.

When it was time to return, everyone was excited and singing along on the boat, which was a lot of fun! Next time, I want to bring my grandchildren along.

Thank you for your hospitality!

還暦を過ぎた夫婦で初めての参加になります。船の中ではハワイアンソングを聴きながら和気あいあいでスタッフの方も英語が話せない私達に片言の日本語でとても親切に接してくれました。（英語ダメでもOK）飲み物やドーナツが有り柔らかくて美味しかったです。お目当てはSUPです！海の中に居るスタッフさんの説明でSUP開始です。恐々乗ってると時期に慣れて気持ち良く乗る事が出来ました。カヤックをやったりシュノーケリングをやったりと充実した時期を楽しく過ごせました。
時間になり帰りの船の中でも弾き語りで皆さん大盛り上がりでとても楽しかったです！
次回はお孫ちゃん達を連れて来たいと思います。

We had plenty of time to enjoy taking lots of photos both at the sandbar and while snorkeling, and we also saw many sea turtles from the boat! I highly recommend this tour!

First of all the bus that picked us up was old and need some works done. A 45 minute drive turned into a 11/2 hour drive. We picked the sand bar as my husband and I both can’t swim. I was pleased that we got to do some snorkeling together. We did see some turtles as well.
Then it was the deeper sea snorkeling. I was so afraid of the deep sea. So we ended up waiting in the boat for over an hour.
There are actually a few coaches on the boat. If they would Guide us through that would be a lot easier.

This was one of the most popular outings suggested when we researched our trip to Oahu. The online description was completely accurate and the booking was easy. The company communicated very clearly via email and text with great instructions to prepare us for a fun day. Once on the boat we were able to completely relax and enjoy ourselves! The live music was amazing, the crew was friendly and fun, and the whole experience was coordinated and organized very well! There was plenty of time on the sand bar and plenty of equipment for our family of 6 to do everything we wanted to do. I would completely recommend this outing and I would do it again!

No sandbar visible at all

Reviewed by: Nancy O

We recognize that no one can control the weather, the tides, or the water depth on any given day but the company could note on their website that the water level has been so high lately that it's rare that the sandbar is visible. Having pictures on the website that show the sandbar above water is very misleading without any asterisks as to weather conditions, water depths, or tides.

The afternoon we went in mid October 2022, the water over the sandbar was about 4-5' deep. It wasn't until we talked with one of the crew who said the sandbar has only been visible about two days this whole summer. Had we known that, we wouldn't have booked but of course, that's exactly why they don't post anything about the rising ocean on the website because they'd lose money. So instead, they let people think they'll get the experience like the photos show which is pretty misleading and close to false advertising.

Unfortunately, we also got a cloudy afternoon with intermittent rain and pretty choppy water so weren't able to try the standup paddle boards or kayaks.

The two-guy band on the boat was good. They played 3 songs on the short boat ride out to the sandbar and then a couple on the way back. They didn't play during the time at the sandbar.

The turkey croissant lunch was good.

The floating suntanning platform near the sandbar was unusable. It had built-in chairs but if you wanted your towel, you had to hold it above your head to keep it dry and swim, tread, or walk in 4' water from the boat to the platform. It would have been helpful if a crew member took towels, etc. over to the platform on a paddle board or something so they'd be dry.

If you have kids or you're a short adult who doesn't want to have to tread water or wear a life vest for the 3+ hours in the water over the sandbar, this isn't the excursion for you. We had a better sandbar off the beach at the Outrigger hotel in Waikiki. Also, the water on Oahu's north shore isn't as clear as in Waikiki.

Absolutely breathtaking. まさに絶景。

Reviewed by: ロコロコ

We participated as a couple. We took a shuttle bus to the port and transferred to a boat to the sandbar. The scenery was truly breathtaking. We were blessed with good weather and enjoyed snorkeling and paddleboarding. During snorkeling, we were able to see fish playing around the corals and even spotted a sea turtle up close, which was moving. On the boat while it was anchored, there were plenty of snacks, apples, and drinks, so we didn't have to worry about getting hungry. The staff were all very friendly, which made the tour even more enjoyable. However, this tour had mostly Japanese participants (there were also people from Taiwan and Korea), but the explanations about how to spend time in the sea and safety instructions were only in English. After the English explanation, they asked those who didn't understand to raise their hands, and a Japanese staff member provided explanations in Japanese as a service. On another optional tour, they always provided explanations in Japanese along with the English ones, so that was a bit disappointing. Overall, it was really fun to experience a different side of Hawaii than Honolulu. I definitely recommend participating when you go to Hawaii.

Sandbar Tour サンドバーツアー

Reviewed by: sayu

I participated with my husband on our honeymoon. Although it was mentioned that masks were required, we brought them just in case but did not wear them.

The boat ride was very smooth, and even though I usually get seasick, I felt completely fine and was able to enjoy snacks without feeling nauseous! Even those who typically get seasick might be okay with this experience.

Before boarding, we had to sign something like a contract, but hardly anyone was dressed as stated in the document; most people were in casual clothing with their arms and legs exposed. So, it might not be as strict as the regulations suggest.

On the boat, they played live Hawaiian music, and we spent our time enjoying snacks like donuts and drinks. Once we arrived, we could swim right away, and there were free rentals for snorkeling and kayaking. There were also paid options like banana boats and jet skis available if there were openings on the day.

We had about two hours to enjoy the sea, which felt quite leisurely. On the return boat, they offered warm tea to help warm us up. The explanations were given in English, Japanese, and Korean, and although they were a bit broken, they were understandable.

Overall, the sea was not as impressive as I had imagined, but perhaps it was just the timing? Regardless, I appreciated the chance to relax, enjoyed the snacks as much as I wanted, and my husband seemed satisfied, so I rated it four stars.

One disappointing aspect was that the location is far from Honolulu, so we requested transportation, but both the outbound and return trips were delayed. In the morning, we were about 20 minutes late, but the return bus also took a long time to depart. The driver eventually returned to inform us that one group of passengers was still eating their snacks, and we couldn't leave until they finished. This was understandably frustrating. Other tourists were also getting impatient, and it seemed that someone went to talk to the couple eating to expedite things. We finally departed about 30 minutes later, which was unacceptable.

I would appreciate it if you could mention in the guidelines that eating is not allowed during the trip, or that transportation will not be provided if passengers choose to eat. The couple was apparently unaware that they would be departing soon, but their assumptions inconvenienced others. I also thought it was rude that they sat down without apologizing.

The staff, atmosphere, and service were good, but the transportation issues before and after really detracted from the experience.

ハネムーンで夫と参加しました。マスク着用とありましたが、私達は念のため持っていきましたが着用はしませんでした。
道中の船はとても静かに進み、いつも薬を飲んでいても船酔いする私がまったくせず、軽食を食べても酔いもせず快適でした！普段船酔いする方でもこれなら大丈夫かもしれません。
事前に契約書？みたいなのにサインするのですが、そこに書かれているような服装の人はほぼおらず、普通にみんな足とか腕とか出た服装でした。だからいろいろ規約に書かれているほど厳しくないのかもしれないです。
船ではハワイアンミュージックを生演奏してくれるのでそれを聞いたり、軽食のドーナツや飲み物を飲んで過ごしました。
着いてからはそのまま泳げますし、シュノーケルやカヤックなども無料で貸し出しがあるのですることができます。有料のバナナボートや水上バイク？も当日空きがあればお金を支払って参加できます。
着いてからは丸々2時間ほどあったのでしょうか？かなりゆっくり海に入っていられた印象です。
帰りのボートでは暖かい紅茶もあるので冷えた身体を温められます。
説明は英語、日本語、韓国語などで片言ですが伝わります。
全体的に想像してたより海は普通で感動はしませんでしたがタイミングなのでしょうか？
とりあえずゆっくりできたこと、軽食は好きなだけ食べれたこと、彼が満足そうだったので、星4にしました。
１つ残念なこととしては場所がホノルルから離れているので送迎をお願いしたのですが、行きも帰りも遅かったこと。朝も20分ほど予定から遅れていましたが、まさかの帰りのバスも待っても待っても出発せず、運転手が戻ってきて告げたのは乗客の1組が現地で軽食を食べている。それが終わらないことには出られないとのこと。勿論イライラ。外人の観光客もしびれをきらしそのご飯中の１組のところへ行って話し合って来てくれたようで、なんとか30分後くらいには出発できましたがあり得なかったです。
申し訳ないですが注意事項に現地での途中飲食は出来ませんとか、途中飲食される場合は送迎致しませんとか書いて下さい。食べていたカップルはそんなにすぐ出発すると思わなかったと言っていたと運転手が言っていましたが、勝手な思い込みは他の人が迷惑です。乗車の際も謝りもせず普通に座って何様なのかと思いました。
スタッフ、雰囲気、サービスは良かっただけにその前後の送迎が足を引っ張った感じがします。

I used this service for my honeymoon in late September. We quickly arrived at the sandbar by boat from the port. During the boat ride, the staff provided explanations. The main language was English, but they also kindly explained in Japanese, which made me feel very reassured. (There were probably about three Japanese couples participating.)

I checked the tide levels before making the reservation, but fortunately, the sky was clear, and the water depth at the sandbar was just right. First, we put on life jackets and swam in relatively deep, beautiful coral reefs. We were able to see sleeping sea turtles, the staff attracted fish for us, and we even got to touch starfish. My wife, who can't swim, was able to enjoy herself without worry. The sea was, of course, beautiful.

After returning to the shallow area, we were able to take wonderful pictures with stunning views. When we got back to the boat, they had coffee, juice, snacks, and apples prepared, so we could take a break if we got tired. The staff were all smiling and supported us in having a great time. It became a lifelong memory. I definitely want to participate again when I come back to Hawaii!!!

Thank you, everyone! One piece of advice: the round-trip bus has very strong air conditioning, so it might be good to have something to wear over your shoulders!

9月下旬に新婚旅行で利用いたしました。
港からサンドバーへはボートであっという間に着きました。ボートで向かってる間にスタッフさんから説明があります。基本は英語ですが、日本語での説明も丁寧にしてくださいましたので、とても安心できました。(おそらく日本人の方は3組くらい参加していました)
一応潮の満ち引きは予約前に確認はしましたが、幸い空は快晴で、サンドバーの水深もちょうど良かったです。
まず、ライフジャケットを付けて、比較的最新の深いサンゴ礁を泳ぎました。眠っているウミガメを見れたり、スタッフさんが魚を寄せてくれたり、ヒトデを触らせてくれたりもしました。泳げない妻でも安心して楽しめました。海はもちろん綺麗です。
浅瀬に戻ってからは、SAPで素晴らしい景色とたくさん写真を撮ることができました。
ボートに戻るとコーヒーやジュース、スナック菓子、林檎など用意してくれているので、疲れたら休憩することが出来ます。
スタッフさんも皆さんニコニコで、こちらが楽しむことをサポートしてくれます。
一生の思い出になりました。またハワイに来たら是非とも参加したいです！！！
皆さんありがとうございました！！
一つアドバイスですが、往復のバスはエアコンがめちゃめちゃ効いてるので、羽織るものはあった方がいいかも！

I participated alone, but the staff were friendly and often checked in on me, which I appreciated. The appearance of the sandbar depends on the season and time of day, so on the day I attended, the water level was up to my chest, and I couldn't see the beach. However, I had a great time doing activities like snorkeling, kayaking, and stand-up paddleboarding in the shallow water where I could stand. If you have flexibility in your schedule, it might be a good idea to check the tide levels and visit on a day when the sandbar is visible. The sun is very strong, so a hat is essential during activities. (My crown got quite sunburned, and the shower was painful...)

1人で参加しましたが、スタッフがフレンドリーでよく声をかけてくれ、気遣いを感じました。
サンドバーの出現は時期や時間帯にもよるので、私が参加した日は胸あたりまで水位があり、砂浜は見ることができませんでしたが、足がつく浅めの海でシュノーケルやカヤック、supなどのアクティビティをして楽しかったです。日程に余裕があり調整できる方は潮位などを調べて、サンドバーが見られる日に行くと良いかもしれません。日差しがとても強いのでアクティビティ中も帽子は必須です。（つむじがかなり日焼けしてシャワーが痛かったです…）

I joined a sandbar tour because I wanted to see the beautiful ocean. When the English guidance started, I was a bit worried, but they kindly explained everything again in Japanese. Finally, we arrived at the sandbar. It seemed like everyone was good at swimming, as it naturally led to snorkeling, and we all went into the water in our swimsuits. Since neither my husband nor I can swim, we waited in the shallow area of the sandbar, and the instructor brought a float for us to hold onto while pulling us towards the deeper water. Looking into the ocean, we saw so many beautiful fish swimming around, and a large turtle swam right underneath us. It was a truly magical experience. I am grateful to the instructor who gently guided us through the stunning ocean, making it the best memory of our 10-day trip to Hawaii.

I was very satisfied with the abundance of sea turtles. ウミガメがいっぱいで大満足

Reviewed by: Yama

My wife and I participated together. We checked the tide level of the sandbar in advance and chose a day with relatively shallow tides to plan our trip and tour schedule. The tide level when we participated was about 60 cm, allowing us to enjoy the atmosphere of the sandbar. Whether walking or swimming, it takes about 5 minutes to reach the sandbar area. Outside the sandbar area, the water gets deeper, and there are corals, where we went snorkeling. We encountered many beautiful fish and sea turtles. It was very moving to see a large sea turtle sleeping on the seabed and three smaller sea turtles swimming together. We were very satisfied and were able to fully enjoy ourselves for over an hour. The only downside was that the water was a bit murky.

We brought our own snorkels and fins. The tour provided snorkels, but it seemed they did not have fins available, as other participants were not using them. If you want to enjoy snorkeling seriously, I think it's best to check in advance whether they can provide fins.

The staff were all able to speak Japanese, and they were kind, cheerful, and very good.

　妻と2人で参加しました。事前にサンドバーの潮位を確認して、比較的潮位が浅い日を選んで旅行とツアーの日程を決めました。参加したときの潮位は60cmくらいで、サンドバーの雰囲気を味わうことができました。ボートを降りて、歩いての移動でも、泳ぎながらの移動でも、5分くらいでサンドバーのエリアが終わります。サンドバーのエリアの外側は、深くなっていて、珊瑚もあり、この深いエリアでシュノーケリングをします。たくさんの綺麗なサカナやウミガメに会えました。大きなウミガメが水底で眠っているところや、小さめなウミガメが3匹で泳いでいるところなどが見られてとっても感動しました。私たちは大満足で、１時間以上、フルに楽しむことができました。唯一、水が濁っていたのが少し残念でした。
　私たちは自前でシュノーケルとフィンを持って行きました。ツアーでもシュノーケルは貸していましたが、フィンは用意されていないようで、他の参加者はフィンを使っていませんでした。本格的にシュノーケリングを楽しみたい方は、フィンを貸してくれるかどうか、事前に確認した方が良いと思います。

Amazing day even with the rain. Definitely coming back when it's sunny and low tide. Captain Robin and his team were super friendly, amazing and patient. Even with the rain there was plenty of fish and turtles to see. I'm not a strong swimmer and I need to touch the bottom (it's weird I know) but Captain Robin was so accomodating, calming, understanding and patient and took me out to the deep reef area on a floater device and I was able to see the fish and turtles. I'm glad he did and I'm glad he didn't push me when I tapped out early. True champion.
The vessel is clean and has plenty of snacks and hot and cold drinks if you don't want to take your own. You can take your own alcohol and they also have plenty of water toys, paddle boards, floatation devices in a seperate raft.
Make sure to bring cash to tip as they are definitely deserving of any gratuity and the experience is amazing as well. One I'll definitely do again when I'm back next time.
Thank you so much was a wonderful day.

Great host that truly made the experience better.
Bumper tubes was fun, our driver definitely gave us a run for our money !

Turtle spotted. カメ発見

Reviewed by: ヤス・リ

I had a great time paddleboarding at the sandbar, and I was able to see a large turtle while snorkeling. The visibility was a bit poor, though.

サンドバーではサップしたりして楽しかった、シュノーケリングでは大きなカメを見ることができた。少し透明度が悪かった。
