It was really amazing

Reviewed by: Hanna

We had a great time with fantastic performances and snacks even before arriving at the sandbar. Even after the boat stopped, their wonderful performance continued. Thanks to that, returning to the boat after activities wasn't boring. Moreover, kids can see a lot of fish at a shallow depth for snorkeling. I highly recommend this tour! The staff are extremely kind and friendly.

Amazing excursion!

Reviewed by: Danielle

My group consisted of friends/couples and one 8 month old baby. We booked this excursion without any of us having done this before and we all said we’d go back and do it again if we could! First off, the booking information and communication emails and texts were very helpful for day of event reminders. The instructions in the emails and texts were pretty detailed and easy to follow along. Once we arrive at the harbor, check in process and safety guide getting on to the boat was seamless and even allowed our large party that all booked separately to group up and grab a table together. Lunch was promptly served(we took the afternoon tour) and we took off for the sandbar. We booked the all-inclusive activities and I definitely recommend it for those who are more active/thrill seekers! There are safety guidelines that the crew goes over with you in detail to ensure safety for all passengers and I really appreciated that since our group had some hesitant or nervous to do the water activities. While we did have an 8month old infant with us and brought her own life vest, the crew came by to offer all infants and children life vests during their safety checks. We did all the inclusive activities offered and was still able to relax in the sandbar water and climb up to the floating lounge to hang out before we headed back to the harbor. The live music was phenomenal(I’m biased as a hula dancer maybe) and my group and I even got up to perform a hula for the other passengers and crew. The crew was friendly, informative, and playful which are all things that I hope for on fun excursions!

I'm glad I could do a lot of marine activities! マリンアクティビティたくさんできて良かった！

Reviewed by: M.T

We participated as a family of five with children aged 6 and 7!
As we moved by boat, the color of the sea clearly changed, and the emerald green water was so beautiful that it left us in awe.
This time, the water depth was up to the adults' waists, which made it a perfect opportunity for our first challenges with snorkeling, stand-up paddleboarding, and canoeing! The kids were able to touch the bottom, so we could enjoy ourselves safely until the end!
However, it was a bit cold, and my 6-year-old son, who couldn't touch the bottom, got scared and cried, retreating to the boat right away. I was a bit disappointed because I wanted him to play a little longer...
Next time in the summer, I strongly hope to join when we can see the sandbar in its true form!!
This time, the kids wanted to ride the banana boat and the tube, so we all participated, and they all said it was the best!!
Thank you for ensuring a safe environment with proper supervision!
I'm really glad we participated!

6.7.9歳の子連れ家族5人で参加しました！
船で移動すると明らかに海の色が変わり、エメラルドグリーンの海がとてもキレイで感動しました。
今回は大人の腰上辺りまでの水深だったため、シュノーケリング、サップ、カヌーは初めてのチャレンジするのにちょうど良かったです！子どもたちも足がついたので、安心して最後まで楽しむことができました！
ただ少し寒かったので、6歳の息子は脚もつかないため怖かったのか号泣してすぐ船に撤退してしまいました笑 もう少し遊んで欲しかったので残念、、、
次は夏、是非サンドバーの本来の姿か見れるタイミングで参加したいと強く思いました!!
今回は子どもたちがバナナボートとチューブをしたいと言ったので、そちらもみんなで参加して子どもたちは最高だった！！と口を揃えて話しています。
安全に過ごせるよう監視体制もしっかりして下さり、ありがとうございました！
参加して本当に良かったです！

Elementary school students are also very satisfied with snorkeling! 小学生も大満足のシュノーケリング！

Reviewed by: Putty

We went as a family of three (with an 11-year-old child) and had a truly satisfying and precious time!

- Getting to the port by bus
After arriving, I felt a bit anxious about where to go, but it was fine as long as we followed the flow. A Japanese staff member provided explanations. It's a good idea to fill out a waiver beforehand. No need to print it; you can do it on your smartphone.

- On the way
We headed there while listening to Hawaiian live music, which really lifted our spirits. It felt very Hawaiian.

- Kayaking
First, we enjoyed kayaking together as a family of three. The child had a great time too!

- Stand-up paddleboarding
Standing up at first is a bit scary, but it's manageable.

- Snorkeling
I believe we will definitely see fish. We received fish food from the staff. It was the child's first snorkeling experience, and they enjoyed it without any issues!

I recommend bringing a GoPro. You can take pictures safely underwater, and the staff can take family photos for you, creating memories that you wouldn't normally capture!

One thing I regret is not knowing how to give tips. I wanted to give a tip to the staff who helped us during snorkeling, but I didn't see a place for it on the boat. There was a box for tips inside the boat, so I put it there. However, when we got off the boat, the staff were there to see us off. Was it proper etiquette to give tips there? I didn't have any ready in my hand, so I just shook hands and left. I hope I didn't leave a bad impression on the staff who took care of us! It was the best hospitality. If I have the chance, I will go again!

親子3人（子ども11歳）で行きました。大満足な貴重な時間が過ごせました！
・バスで港まで
到着後、どこに行けばよいかちょっと不安になりますが、流れに沿って行けば大丈夫でした。日本人スタッフの方が説明して頂きました。行く前に事前に誓約書みたいのを書いていくと良いです。印刷不要です。スマホで出来ます。
・行くまで
ハワイアンライブミュージックを聞きながら、テンションを上げながら向かいます。ハワイって感じでした。
・カヤック
まずは、カヤックは３人乗りで、親子３人で楽しみました。子供も楽しめます！
・スタンダップパドル
最初立つのは怖いですが、大丈夫です。
・シュノーケリング
魚は、間違いなく見れると思います。スタッフの方に魚のえさをもらえました。子供は初のシュノーケリングでしたが、全く問題なく楽しんでました！

GoProの持参をおすすめします。海の中でも安心して撮れますし、スタッフの方に家族の写真を撮ってもらえたりして、普段撮れない写真が撮れて、良い思い出になっています！

ちょっと悔いが残るのは、チップの渡し方がわかりませんでした。
シュノーケリングの時にお世話になったスタッフに渡したかったのですが、
ボート内に見たらなかったので、ボートの中にチップを入れる箱があった
ので、そこに入れました。でもボートを降りると、スタッフの方が
見送りでいてくれました。そこでチップを渡すのがマナーだったのでしょうか？
手にチップを用意しておらず・・そのまま、握手をして帰ることに・・。
お世話になったスタッフの方に嫌な思いをさせていたらすみません！
最高のおもてなしでした。
機会があれば、また行きます！

It was too cold. 寒すぎました

Reviewed by: やま

I participated in the event in the morning at the end of January. This year's Honolulu felt cold, with many rainy days. After arriving on site, I got into the ocean just after 9 AM, but the seawater was cold, and due to the cloudy sky, I got back on the boat after about 20 minutes. The ocean was beautiful, and there were fish swimming, so I think I would have enjoyed it more if it had been warmer. I believe participating in the afternoon during the winter would have allowed for a warmer experience.

1月末の午前中のに参加しました。今年のホノルルは寒く、雨の日も多い感じでした
現地に着いて、9時過ぎから海に入りましたが、海水も冷たく、曇り空のため、20分位で船に上がってしまいました。
海は綺麗で、魚も泳いでいて、もっと暖かだったら楽しめたと思います
冬の時期は午後からの参加の方が暖かく過ごせたと思います

Participated in the second half of January. 1月後半に参加

Reviewed by: SAEKI

We were able to enjoy snorkeling, kayaking, stand-up paddleboarding, and volleyball for two and a half hours for free. I think it's a great deal since it includes these activities and allows you to experience the precious scenery of the sandbar. I recommend it for groups who love activities or siblings. Even grandparents who didn't go into the water enjoyed the scenery and live music. The water depth is about chest to waist high. They mentioned that it's usually like this. It's a good depth for activities, but if you're expecting a sandy beach at the sandbar, you might want to consider other tours. Also, there are no showers. If that's a concern, it might be good to bring some water to rinse off a bit after changing.

シュノーケリング、カヤック、サップ、バレーボールが2時間半、無料で出来ました。
これらの費用込み、サンドバーという貴重な景色も味わえるので、お得だと思います。
アクテビティ好きのグループや兄弟などにお勧め。
海に入らない、祖父母さんなんかも、景色と生演奏で、楽んでおられました。
水深は胸から腰ぐらいの深さ。だいたいいつもこんな感じだと言っておられました。アクテビティにはちょうど良い深さですが、砂浜のサンドバーを期待するなら、他のツアーなのかなぁと思います。
あと、シャワーはありません。気になる方は、着替え後に、ちょっと洗う、水を持って行くと良いかも。

Great fun, great singing, great crew.

Reviewed by: Trubg

Even though the water was a bit chilly we had a lot of fun. The singing was sensational on the way there. We saw a bunch of big fish after walking a hundred steps, there were a lot more colorful ones near the corals. After snorkeling , we did a bit of kayaking as well, the sun came out and we warmed up. Tip: look up low tide times a few days ahead and book appropriate sessions, we didn’t do that so the sandbar was not visible.

Heaven's Sea 天国の海

Reviewed by: よし

I had to wait in the sea for a long time without anything to do because there weren't enough canoes or SUPs, and it took a while for someone to switch with me. It was cold that day, and I endured while shivering. For some reason, I couldn't go to the area where there were many other boats (it looked like a beautiful white sandy beach, like a heavenly sea). This tour was separated from that.

カヌーやsupが足りなくて海の中で何もすることなくずっと待ってましたが、、なかなか代わってもらえなかった。その日は寒くて震えながら耐えました。なぜかわからないですが、他のたくさんの船がいるところへはいけなく（そちらが白い砂の浜辺のように見えて天国の海という感じです綺麗だった）このツアーだけ離れてました。

I wasn't able to see dolphins, but I did get to see whales and turtles. Since they are wild animals, there's no guarantee you'll see them, so I actually feel grateful for the experience of seeing the less common animals. Oh, but maybe that's because I was able to see dolphins twice in the past, in Hawaii and Guam.

Great staff, but snorkel spot was just ok.

Reviewed by: Josh

Overall, we enjoyed the trip. Staff was great! However, the snorkel spot was crowded with lots of other groups. It felt like you were bumping into people the whole time. We saw some turtles, but there wasn't much else to see. Also, the parking instructions are unclear. All it said was they validate in the garage, so I parked in the obvious giant garage. But they don't validate in that one (the Hale Koa). They only validate in the Hilton Garage which is harder to find. I hope they aren't unclear on purpose...that cost an extra $39!
