Most of the customers were Asian. I felt it would have been better to do kayaking and stand-up paddleboarding first since there was a wait. I think they were from China, but it seemed like they didn't have the concept of taking turns.

Snorkeling can be enjoyed in just 15 minutes at the designated spot.

Since it was close to high tide, I couldn't walk, but I felt it would have been better to check the timing before going.

お客さんの大半がアジア人でした。カヤックやスタンドパドルは順番待ちがあるため先に行うとよかったと感じました。中国の方だと思いますが、交代という考えがないように感じました。
シュノーケルは決められた場所で行うため、15分もあれば楽しめます。
満潮に近かったため歩くことはできませんでしたが、時間を調べていくとよかったと感じました。

Reviewed by: じーお

We participated as two adults and one child (10 years old). It was an extremely enjoyable tour with a high level of satisfaction! I felt it was an experience that you can't have at the beach.

As for the transportation to the sandbar, we used the hotel shuttle bus. Since we participated in the morning session, the bus meeting time was early at 7:50 AM. The bus had ample seat width, making it spacious and comfortable.

By the way, the bus information is sent via SMS the day before. The message reminds you of the driver, bus details (color and license plate), time, and meeting place. If there are similar tour buses nearby the hotel, you can easily identify yours by checking the license plate. Just let them know your name when boarding.

After arriving at the site, you check in at the front of the boat, but you need to submit a consent form. If you print and sign it in advance, you can just hand it over on-site. Otherwise, it seems you need to fill it out and submit it there.

Once on the boat, you can enjoy juice and donuts while waiting for everyone to board, along with explanations in Japanese. The explanations are in broken Japanese, but you can understand them well enough, so there's no need to worry. On the way to the sandbar, you can listen to a live performance by musicians, which is very exciting and raises the mood. However, children who can't keep up with the rhythm might be surprised. Our child was like that (laughs).

After arriving at the sandbar, everyone puts on life vests and heads out into the sea. You can choose from snorkeling, stand-up paddleboarding, or kayaking, doing what you want first. There are limited numbers of stand-up paddleboards and kayaks, but if you wait a while, those who get bored will return them to the staff, and they will let you know in Japanese, "You guys are next!" So just talk to the staff and enjoy floating around while you wait. There are also child-sized snorkeling gear available, so it's safe.

Our family doesn't usually swim at all, and before participating, there were concerns from family members about whether the tour would be okay. However, wearing life vests made us feel secure and those worries quickly disappeared. Our child, who can't swim and can't touch the bottom at all, was excited and having fun. At first, adults just need to support them when getting from the boat to the sea, and after that, they should be fine.

The day we participated was cloudy, so it was quite cold at first, and I was worried, "Can we really stay in the sea?" But after a while, it cleared up and got hot. It's best to apply enough sunscreen.

Once it’s sunny, you can play so much that you forget the time! It was the best tour, and I would definitely like to participate again if I have the chance.

大人二人、子供一人(10)で参加しました。
非常～～～～に楽しく、満足度が高いツアーでした！
ビーチでは出来ない体験だと感じました。

サンドバーまでの移動手段ですが、私たちはホテル送迎バスを利用しました。私たちは午前のパートに参加したのでバスの集合時間は7時50分と早め。バスは座席幅に余裕があって、ゆったりとして快適でした。

ちなみに、バスの情報は前日にSMSメッセージが送られてきます。メッセージには、ドライバー、バスの情報（色やナンバープレート）、時間と集合場所がリマインドされます。ホテル近場で似たようなツアーバスが止まっていたら、ナンバープレートを見れば確実に判別できます。名前を伝えて乗り込みましょう。

現地到着後は、船の前で受付をしますが、同意書の提出が必要です。事前に印刷して署名していれば現地で渡すだけです。そうでない場合はその場で書いて提出が必要そうでした。

船内に入った後はジュースやドーナツを頂きながら、日本語での説明などを受けつつ全員の乗船を待ちます。説明は片言の日本語ですが十分意味は理解できますので心配はいりません。サンドバー到着まではミュージシャンのライブを聞けますが、とても迫力があってテンション上がります。もしかすると、ノリについていけない子供はびっくりしてしまうかもしれません。うちの子はそうでした（笑）

サンドバー到着後はライフベストを着用して、皆さんどんどん海に出ていきます。シュノーケルやサップやカヤック、やりたいものからやる感じです。サップやカヤックは数に限りがありますが、しばらく待っていれば飽きた方がスタッフに戻していくので、スタッフに話しかけておけば「あなたたち、次ね！」と日本語で教えてくれます。ぷかぷか浮きながら楽しく待ちましょう。シュノーケルは子供サイズもあるので安心です。

私たちは海水浴すら全くしない一家でして、参加するまでツアー自体について「本当に大丈夫かな？」という家族からの不安の声がでていました。ですが、ライフベストきて安心して浮いていられるのでその懸念はすぐになくなりました。全く足がつかない＆泳げないうちの子も意気揚々とはしゃいでました。最初、船から海に降りる所だけ大人がサポートすれば後は大丈夫でしょう。

私たちの参加した日は曇りだったので最初は結構冷たく、「これ、海につかり続けられるの？」と不安でしたがしばらくするとピカっと晴れて暑くなります。日焼け止めは十分にしておいたほうがいいです。

晴れてしまえば時間を忘れるくらい遊べます！ぜひまた、機会があれば参加したいと思う最高のツアーでした。

Reviewed by: 10th

We experienced the bumper tube since our family loves thrilling attractions. It jumps intensely to the point where you might bite your tongue while talking. It swings side to side, and the three minutes feel quite long due to its intensity. Our family loved it.

After that, we had a fulfilling experience with stand-up paddleboarding, kayaking, volleyball, and snorkeling. I was satisfied to have such experiences at this price.

As for snacks, donuts are distributed at the beginning. If you’re not a fan of donuts, I recommend bringing your own light snacks. Also, if you have kids, they might get hungry after the activities, so bringing some snacks or light meals is advisable. Additionally, it gets chilly on the way back, so please make sure to bring a pool towel and a change of clothes.

At the sandbar, during high tide, the water reached up to the chest of someone who is 161 cm tall, and there was no sandy beach, but we still had fun. I’m concerned about rising water levels due to global warming, and I wondered if it becomes a sandbar during low tide.

バンパーチューブは、激しいアトラクションが好きな家族なので、追加でこちらを体験しました。
喋ると舌を噛みそうになるぐらい。激しくジャンプします。左右にも振られ3分程度が長く感じられるぐらい激しいです。
家族には大好評でした。

その後、サップやカヤック、バレーボール、シュノーケルなどをやり充実した体験ができました。
このお値段で体験出来て満足でした。

軽食ですが、ドーナツがはじめに配られます。
ドーナツが苦手な方は軽食をお持ちになる事をお勧めします。
また、お子さんの場合は体験後にお腹がすくと思いますので、おやつや軽食をお持ちする事をオススメします。
あと、帰りは冷えるので、プールタオルや着替えは必ず持って行ってください。

サンドバーは、満潮？、161cm身長の胸まで海水があり、砂浜はなかったですが、楽しめました。

It was great for families as well. 家族連れにもとっても良かったです。

Reviewed by: いつき

I participated in the banana boat plan at the beginning of August, and it was really great. We gathered at the nearby supermarket, Ross Dress for Less, but the only downside was that we arrived about five minutes late for the bus. However, there were about four or five other Japanese families and couples, so I didn't feel too anxious about it.

We then traveled by bus for about 40-50 minutes. Upon arrival, we checked in and boarded the boat under the guidance of a cheerful staff member who spoke a bit of Japanese. There were about 60-70 people from various countries on the boat, with around 30 from Japan. The announcements on board were a mix of English and Japanese, which made it comfortable for those who didn't understand English.

The location had shallow waters (not completely sandy), with a depth up to my stomach at 170 cm tall. They first guided four families who had signed up for the banana boat. We had four participants, but we boarded with two parents and a total of six people. It was a wonderful experience where we enjoyed about ten minutes of speed and stunning views of Hawaii.

After that, we had free time for snorkeling and canoeing, where they also provided instructions in Japanese. The snorkeling was amazing. There were various tropical fish nearby, and it was very beautiful.

As for the weather, it drizzled a bit while we were on the bus, but it stopped by the time we arrived, and it was almost clear skies.

バナナボート付きプランにして、8月初旬に参加しましたが、とっても良かったです。
ホテル近くのスーパー「ロスドレスフォーレス」に集合でしたが、5分ほど遅れてバスに来たことが唯一のマイナスでしょうか。ただ、他に4/5組の日本人の家族、カップルがいてお互い会話できていたので、そこまで不安はなかったです。
そのままバスで40-50分ほど移動。
現地で受付。陽気な片言の日本側話すスタッフの案内の元、船に乗り込みました。
船の中には他のいろんな国の人が合計60-70人ほどいたでしょうか。日本人グループが30名ほど。館内の挨拶は英語・日本語を混ぜて、英語がわからない人にも安心できる感じでした。
現地は浅瀬（完全に砂場に見えてる訳ではないです）、身長170でお腹くらいの水深。
最初にバナナボートに申し込んだファミリーを4組を案内してくれました（ここもしっかりしてます）。
うちは4人参加でしたが、親子2名と一緒に合計6名で搭乗。合計10分程度スピード感とハワイの絶景が見れる素敵な体験でした。
あとはフリーのシュノーケリングやカヌーを体験。そちらも日本語でつけ方など教えてくれました。
シュノーケリングは最高でした。
産後の近くにいろんな熱帯魚がいて、とっても綺麗でした。
最後に天気ですが、バスで移動中は小雨がぱらついてましたが、現地では雨も止みほぼ快晴になりました。

Thanks to the Japanese guide, I was able to enjoy a safe and fun time. I had the best half day with music in the background. I wished I could stay at the sandbar forever. The foreign guide was also fun and friendly, which was great. It would be nice to have fresh water showers on the boat. The restrooms at the dock were too dirty. There were also no paper towels or trash cans. I think suggesting to use the restroom there while filling out the consent form would help avoid crowding the restroom on the boat.

日本語ガイドさんがいてくださっていたおかげで安全に楽しく過ごせた。音楽をバックに最高の半日を過ごせた。ずっとサンドバーにいたいと思った。外国人のガイドさんも楽しくフレンドリーでよかった。船に真水のシャワーがあればありがたい。船着場のトイレがきたなすぎ。ペイパーもゴミ箱もなかなった。同意書を書いている間にそこのトイレを利用をすすめることで船にのったときのトイレが混まないと思う。

It was cold. 寒かった

Reviewed by: ふぉん

I was relieved to have the reception in Japanese before boarding. Although it was said that English would be used after boarding, there were some people who could speak broken Japanese, so it wasn't a problem at all. The explanations for snorkeling and the staff were very enjoyable, and I had a great time.

However, perhaps due to the wind, I felt very cold after getting out of the water and was shivering. I wished they could at least provide warm drinks for a fee.

I was able to change in the only changing room available, which was a relief, but it seemed like the foreign guests were planning to leave in their swimsuits and looked quite cold.

I expected a wide sandy beach, but when we got off the boat, it was a shallow sea, which was a bit different from what I had imagined. However, I was able to see a lot of fish while snorkeling, and it was fun to ride the boat.

受付、乗船前の日本語でしていただいて安心しました。乗船後は英語と言われていましたが、カタコトの日本語ができる方もいて特に問題ありませんでした。シュノーケルの説明や、カラーの方たちがとても楽しくて、楽しい時間を過ごせました。
ただ、風が吹いていたせいか、海から上がって寒くて寒くて、ガタガタ震えていました。
せめてあったかい飲み物くらい有料で良いから置いて欲しかったです。
早めに上がり、ひとつしかない更衣室に入って着替えできたので、助かりましたが、外国の方は水着で帰るつもりなのか、寒そうにしていらっしゃいました。
砂浜が広がっているかと思いきや、船を降りたら浅瀬の海で、ちょっと想像していたのとは違いましたが、シュノーケルで魚もたくさんみれて、ボートに乗ったら楽しかったです。

The Japanese staff provided assistance from the pre-boarding explanation and even accompanied us on the boat, so I had no issues at all. I signed up for the full set with the banana boat and bumper tube, and everything was well organized. After that, I was able to enjoy enough time for SUP, kayaking, and snorkeling.

Since there was only one changing room after the activities, returning to the boat a little earlier than everyone else allowed for a smooth change. There were many comments about the bus being cold, but the driver frequently checked the temperature inside, so those in swimsuits didn't seem cold at all.

I think I will participate again next time!

乗船前の説明から日本語スタッフが対応してくれるし、船にも同乗してくれるので、何も困ることがありませんでした。
バナナボートandバンパーチューブ付きのフルセットで申し込みましたが、段取りも良く、その後にSUPやカヤック、シュノーケリングまで時間内で十分楽しむことが出来ました。
アクティビティ後は更衣室が1つしか無い為、みんなよりちょっとだけ早めに船に戻ることで、スムーズに着替えることができます。
バスが寒いとのコメントが多いですが、ドライバーさんが何度も車内の温度をヒアリングしてくれるので、水着のままの人も決して寒そうでは無かったです。

It was so much fun! 最高に楽しかった！

Reviewed by: Yuhee

The morning gathering was early, so my 5-year-old child looked sleepy the whole time, but when the dolphins appeared, he was completely absorbed in watching them in the water. I was a bit anxious about managing our valuables, but I was able to take care of them myself at the foot of the boat, so there was really no need to worry. There were times when Japanese speakers were available, so we had no language barriers, and the English staff were friendly, making it a fun experience. I recommend signing up for the photo package (up to 4 people for $79) because you won't need to bring a camera, and they will even take underwater photos for you. It was nice to have a credit card and some cash for tips. It might be a good idea to take motion sickness medication just in case. Our family, both adults and children, were fine, but I saw a few people who were really struggling with seasickness. Overall, it was a great experience that the kids enjoyed very much.

朝集合が早かったので、5歳の子供は終始眠そうでしたが、イルカが見えると夢中で海の中を見ていました。
貴重品の管理が不安でしたが、船の足元に自分で管理で、特に心配する必要もなかったです。
日本語が話せる方がいる時間帯だったので、言葉面でも不自由なく、英語スタッフの方も気さくで楽しく過ごせました。
フォトパッケージ(4人まで79ドル)を申し込めば、カメラを持っていく必要もなく、水中の写真まで撮ってくれるのでおすすめです。
クレカとチップ分の現金があれば良い感じでした。
酔い止めは念のため飲んでおいたほうがいいかと。
我が家は大人も子供も飲んで平気でしたが、数名凄まじい勢いで戻してる方がいて辛そうでした。

It was the best half day. 最高の半日でした。

Reviewed by: masa

Since I was planning to head towards Kailua in the afternoon, I didn't arrange for a shuttle and used the city bus instead. I obtained a prepaid card called Holo Card, which is exclusive to city buses, before heading to the location. (At ABC, only one-day passes are sold, so it's better to purchase a rechargeable card at places like Seven-Eleven.) The city bus is used frequently during the trip, so it's preferable to get it on the first day. The bus arrived almost on time, but the air conditioning was strong, so a light jacket is necessary. The bus fare is quite reasonable at a daily maximum of $7.50 compared to other transportation options, making it recommended for those looking to save money. I feel that a taxi would cost around $50 to $60? In Hawaii, prices fluctuate significantly based on supply and demand. Route searches can be done easily with Google Maps. I also used an app called DaBus2, but it seemed a bit difficult to use.

At the location, a Japanese guide (a local) provided explanations in Japanese, and although it was somewhat broken, it was understandable. There were a few Japanese tourists as well, so I think it's manageable even if you don't understand everything. You need to bring a copy of the consent form in advance, but even if you forget, they have it prepared there, so you can just head to the location without worry.

The sandbar was deep enough that when an adult (170 cm) stood, the water came up to just above their chest. I think it would be fine if the sun is out, but it can be a bit chilly, so having a rash guard would be reassuring.

During the round trip from He'eia Harbor to the sandbar, there were light snacks (donuts) and drinks (water, orange juice), and the performance by the two male musicians was quite good.

I would definitely like to use this plan again when I visit Hawaii.

午後にカイルア方面へ向かう予定だったため送迎はつけず、市バスを利用した。事前に市バス限定のプリペイド式決済カードのHoloカードを入手し、現地へ向かった。(ABCだと1日乗車券のみの販売だけなので、セブンイレブン等でチャージ式のを購入すると良い)。市バスは旅行中に利用する頻度が高いので、初日に入手が好ましい。バスはほぼ時間通りに到着したが、車内は冷房が効いており羽織るものが必要。バスは1日上限7.5＄と他交通機関と比較するとかなり割安なため、節約したい方にはおすすめ。感覚ですがタクシーでも5〜60＄くらい？ハワイは需供で料金の変動が激しい印象。経路検索はGoogleマップだけで問題なし。DaBus2というアプリも併用したが、やや使いづらい印象。

現地では日本語ガイド(現地の方)が日本語にて説明して下さり、カタコトではあったが十分理解可能。日本人観光客も何組かおり、分からなくてもなんとかなると思います。事前に同意書のコピーを持参する必要があるが、忘れても向こうで用意してあるので最悪そのまま現地に向かえば大丈夫です。
サンドバーは大人(170cm)が立つと胸から上が水面から出る程度の深さでした。日差しがあれば大丈夫だと思うが、やや肌寒いので、ラッシュガードがあれば安心。

ヘエイア港からサンドバーまでの往復の間、軽食(ドーナツ)、水分(水、オレンジジュース)があり、男性2人組の演奏がかなり良かったです。

またハワイに訪れる際には利用したいと思えるプランでした。
