It seems that the sandy beach only appears during the summer, and without the blue sea and white sandy beach, the activities are the same wherever you go: riding boats, snorkeling, and paddleboarding. Moreover, since there is no beach, activities are conducted by getting on and off the boat.
I participated in late October, which is just before the rainy season, and it often rains in the morning. Since the timing of the tides also varies by season, I think it's best to carefully consider the season and time of day when participating.
写真のように砂浜が現れるのは夏場だけのようで、青い海と白い砂浜がなければ、ボートに乗って、シュノーケリングをして、SUPをして帰ってくる、どこに行っても同じようなアクティビティです。しかもビーチが無いのでボートから乗り降りしてアクティビティを行います。
今回参加したのは10月下旬でしたが、もうすぐ雨期になる時期、午前中は雨が降ることも多いです。まだ潮の満ち引きの時間も季節によって異なるため、参加する季節、時間帯を事前に良く検討しておいた方が良いと思います。
Thank you for participating in Captain Bruce's Paradise of the Sea the other day. I sincerely apologize for not being able to meet your expectations despite your valuable time spent in Hawaii. I am also truly grateful for your valuable feedback. Mahalo nui loa.

My cousin and I had an amazing time. The stuff was awesome; helpful and fun.
This is a very cool location; we went during high tide and have no regrets of selecting that time slot. The weather was warm, the water was calm and clear. We took advantage of all of the activities; we kayaked, paddle boarded and hung out on the floating platform. The live music was the cherry on top. I would definitely recommend booking this specific tour.

Everyone who participated in the tour was Japanese. They provided explanations in Japanese on the boat. Since I made the reservation without considering the tide schedule, when we arrived, the water was about knee-deep, and by the time we returned, it was at waist height. The waves were fairly decent.
I was able to rent a stand-up paddleboard, which was fun, and I also got to see sea turtles.
The snorkeling was quite tough because they didn't provide fins, and the waves were high. The water was murky, so I couldn't see many fish.
The photos I took while paddleboarding turned out really beautiful when I looked back at them later!
On the boat, we could enjoy warm coffee, juice, snacks, and spam rice balls for free. The apples were delicious. Since we couldn't see the sandbar, I think it's better to participate during low tide.
ツアーに参加したのは全員日本人でした。船の上では日本語で説明もしてくれました。潮の満干期を気にせず予約した為、着いた頃は膝上程度、帰りには腰高位になっていました。波もまあまああり。
サップを借りることができたので、遊べて楽しかったのと、海亀も観られました。
シュノーケルは足ヒレを貸してもらえないため、波も高く結構辛かったです。
濁っていたので魚はほとんど見られませんでした。
サップをしながら撮った写真はあとから見返したら凄く綺麗でした!
船のうえで暖かいコーヒーやジュース、スナック、スパムおにぎりが無料で食べれます。りんごも美味しかったです。
サンドバーは見られなかったので、参加する際は干潮時間に合わせたほうが良いかと思います。

The bus transfer from the hotel had some troubles, but the tour was absolutely wonderful. The bus driver spoke mainly English, while there was someone on the tour boat who could speak Japanese. It was my first experience with snorkeling and stand-up paddleboarding, but I felt safe starting snorkeling from a spot where I could stand. They provided a lesson on how to paddleboard, but it was more difficult than I expected. I'm glad I decided to go for it; it turned out to be a great experience.

I thought I would have to join a half-day tour to see sea turtles, but I found a tour in the Waikiki area that only took about 2 to 3 hours, and it was really great.
The instructor continuously pointed out where the sea turtles were while we were snorkeling, so it was easy to follow along and see them! I was very happy to swim with several sea turtles. I plan to request this tour again when I go back to Hawaii.

I have been to Hawaii more than 20 times with my family, but this time I participated in this tour with a friend. When I was booking in Japan, there were many similar sandbar tours, and after some deliberation, I decided on this one because of the "live music." I was truly moved by the wonderful singing and performance, even more than I expected! It was also helpful that there were staff members who spoke Japanese. The activities were a lot of fun, and I got to experience multiple things! Thank you for the big donuts and juice! I want to participate again!!

We used this service for our honeymoon trip. The staff was very friendly and took a lot of photos for us. It was also reassuring that they spoke Japanese, allowing us to enjoy ourselves without worry.
In the first half, we enjoyed activities like stand-up paddleboarding and floating on inflatable rings, and in the second half, we went snorkeling. During snorkeling, there were instructions to avoid touching the coral, but while swimming, my feet accidentally brushed against it, causing some scrapes. If you have marine shoes, it might be a good idea to bring them.
Depending on the season, I think it's a popular tour, so I recommend making a reservation more than a month in advance!

Unfortunately, the tide was high, reaching up to my thighs even in shallow areas. I thought snorkeling was just about seeing fish, but I was able to see many sea turtles up close. I could hear the sea turtles breathing right next to me, so close that I was worried I might touch them. The tour fee is quite high, but I am very satisfied.

I thought I would be able to swim closely with a lot of dolphins, but while I was able to see them, it felt more like just seeing dolphins rather than swimming with them. Since they are wild animals, timing might play a role as well... For those who are prone to motion sickness, I think taking motion sickness medication is a must. Even after taking it, we still felt nauseous.

The sandbar is very nice, we arrived at the tour boat with plenty of time and were able to find parking! which was great, but arrive early to be safe, we received a safety briefing and we were on our way!
The boat ride from the dock to the sandbar is short but with entertainment along the way and snacks.
Once you get there there is a place to snorkel and swim around, and a platform to lounge and baste in the sun.
However the day we went tide was high so the water was up to our chests, however not something the tour can control.
We liked it a lot and would do it again.

I went for the first time this year. When we got on the boat, it was raining, but I was glad that it stopped by the time we arrived at the sandbar. The water was knee-deep in some areas, which made it enjoyable. We could also rent SUPs and had a great time. There was a Japanese-speaking guide who provided support. They took us snorkeling, and we were able to see plenty of turtles. The guide helped us, a couple in our 60s, with snorkeling, and we could just float around. I want to go again next year. I think it would be wonderful if it were sunny. It was already so great even with the rain and clouds, so I'm looking forward to going again next year. There is a website that checks the tide levels at the sandbar, so I recommend looking it up and choosing a day with low tide when making a reservation. It’s a wonderful world where you can experience the ocean in 360 degrees.

I made a reservation for a date without checking the tide levels, but it turned out to be just when the tide was coming in, and the water level at the sandbar was around my waist. Last time it was about ankle-deep, so I felt a bit disappointed and reduced my rating by one star.
You can check the tide levels at <https://www.usharbors.com/harbor/hawaii/mokuoloe-hi/tides/#monthly-tide-chart>. However, compared to the last time when the weather was mixed with rain, this time there were more sunny intervals, so I felt like I got a bit of a revenge on that front.
The tour I participated in last time had a lot of marine activities, but this time I was mainly looking forward to the BBQ hamburgers. The patties grilled on the BBQ set on the boat were delicious. As for activities, I enjoyed beach volleyball and snorkeling. I was able to choose not to wear a life jacket for snorkeling, which allowed me to enjoy skin diving (the last tour required a life jacket). I also encountered a lot of sea turtles.
A local staff member asked if my wife was a local, but at first, I didn’t understand what was being said, which was a bit amusing.
潮位を確認せずに行ける日程で予約しましたが、結果はちょうど潮が満ちてくる時間帯で、サンドバーでの水位は腰のあたりでした。前回は踝くらいだったので、残念な感じで星一つ減。
潮位は、<https://www.usharbors.com/harbor/hawaii/mokuoloe-hi/tides/#monthly-tide-chart> とかで調べられます。
しかし、前回の天気は雨混じりだったのに比べると今回は晴れ間が多かったので、そこはリベンジできたかな。
前回参加したツアーはマリンアクティビティが豊富でしたが、今回のツアーはBBQハンバーガー目当て。船上のBBQセットで焼かれたパテが美味いこと。
アクティビティとしては、ビーチバレーとシュノーケリングを楽しみました。シュノーケリングはライフジャケットを付けないのも選択できたので、私としてはスキンダイビングも出来て楽しめました(前回のツアーはライフジャケット必須だった)。ホヌにも沢山遭遇することが出来ましたし。
ロコのスタッフから、私の妻はロコなのかと訊かれたのですが、最初何を言われているのか解らなかったのは御愛嬌。

I participated with my 8-year-old and 6-year-old children. The guide was Japanese, and the entire trip was conducted in Japanese.
The activities included visiting the sandbar, observing sea turtles, and snorkeling, and we were very satisfied with the lunch, which was a charcoal-grilled hamburger.
By the way, alcohol is available for purchase, but soft drinks are free.
I was worried about whether my kids could snorkel since they are small, but they provided equipment for children, and there were no issues at all. The kids had an absolute blast.
One area for improvement would be to create a changing room. I wondered about the lack of a place to change on the way back. A few poorly mannered Japanese individuals were changing in the long line for the restroom stalls.
We had to ride the bus in wet swimsuits, and the air conditioning was too strong, making it cold. Since there’s no place to change, I think it’s a good idea to bring extra bath towels to cover up on the way back.
Other than that, it was fantastic.
8歳と6歳の子供と一緒に参加しました。
ガイドさんは日本人で、道中はオール日本語です。
サンドバー、ホヌ見学、シュノーケリングに加え、お昼ご飯は炭焼きハンバーグのバーガーで大満足のアクティビティでした。
ちなみにアルコールは有料ですが、ソフトドリンクは無料で頂けます。
子供達が小さいのでシュノーケリングが出来るか心配でしたが、子供用の装備も用意されており、全く問題ありませんでした。
子供達はめちゃくちゃ楽しんでいました。
一点改善して欲しいところは、更衣室を作って欲しいです。
帰りに着替えれないところはどうなのと思いました。
マナーの悪い日本人が数名、長蛇列のトイレ個室で着替えてました。
濡れた水着でバスに乗るのですが、エアコンが効き過ぎてて寒くなりました。
着替えれないので、帰りに体を覆えるようにバスタオルは多めに持参が良いと思います。
それ以外は最高でした。

The meeting place was within a hotel in Waikiki, which was very accessible. I joined thinking it would be nice to meet them, but I was incredibly moved to see multiple honu (sea turtles) right in front of me! After snorkeling, during the cruising, I was a bit worried because my family got seasick, but it felt really nice to sail while enjoying the view of the hotels in Waikiki and Diamond Head with the wind in our faces. Also, the captain, crew, and instructor were really cool.
集合場所がワイキキのホテルの中でアクセスがよかったです。
本当に会えたらいいなーぐらいに思って参加したのですが、何匹も、しかも目の前でホヌさん(ウミガメ)に会えて、大感動でした!
シュノーケリング後のクルージングでは、ちょっと家族が船酔いしちゃって心配でしたが、ワイキキのホテル群やダイヤモンドヘッドを見ながら、風を切って航行するのは本当に気持ちよかったです。
あと、キャプテンとクルー、インストラクターがめっちゃかっこよかったです。
