There is a problem with the staff's response. スタッフの対応に問題あり

Reviewed by: クムクン

It was a tour in March, but the response from the Japanese staff on board, especially their commanding tone and seemingly angry way of speaking, was not acceptable. While I understand that the weather and sea temperature are beyond control, I regret paying the price for this level of service. I often use overseas tours, but I felt a significant difference in quality this time.

3月のツアーでしたが、船上の日本人スタッフの対応、特に命令調な言い方や怒ったような言い方が納得行くものではなかったです。天気や海水温は仕方ありませんが、この対応はそれなりの料金を払ったことに後悔しています。良く海外ツアーは利用しますが、当たりハズレの差を感じました。

The best experience! 最高の体験！

Reviewed by: みもまる

This time, I participated with my 5-year-old daughter and my parents in their 70s. The weather was a bit cloudy, but when we arrived at the sandbar, it was sunny! We even saw sea turtles! Although we couldn't see the beach, the water was up to the adults' waists, so my daughter could stand and we had a lot of fun snorkeling and kayaking! The lifeguards were very kind (and they spoke Japanese fluently!). My parents, who didn't go into the water, were also taken on a boat ride around the area, and we were delighted by their generous spirit to entertain us. It was the best experience that will remain a lifelong memory!

今回は5歳の娘と70代の両親を含む家族で参加しました。
お天気はちょっと曇りがかってましたが、サンドバーにつくと晴天！ウミガメも見えましたよ～！
砂浜までは見えませんでしたが、海が大人の腰辺りまでになっていて、娘も足がついたのでシュノーケリングやカヌーなど沢山遊べました！ライフセーバーの方たちもすごく優しかったです。（日本語もペラペラ！）海に入らない両親たちもボートに乗せてくれて周辺を一周してくれたり、私達を楽しませようとするサービス精神がたっぷりで嬉しかったです。
一生の思い出に残る最高の体験ができました！

The strongest banana boat. 最強のバナナボート

Reviewed by: もるぺこ

I participated in the afternoon session.
- The live music on the boat was very pleasant, and the atmosphere was great as participants started dancing.
- I added both the banana boat and the bumper tube. The speed was something you can't experience in Japan. It was so much fun that I screamed so much I lost my voice the next day.
- There are various activities like snorkeling and stand-up paddleboarding, so you won't get bored.
- The light snack was a sandwich.
- You could also purchase alcohol separately, which allowed me to enjoy a drink with friends after playing.
- There was a tour guide who spoke Japanese, which was very reassuring. (I'm not sure if they are there every time.)
- The weather wasn't very good, so I wish I could have gone on a sunnier day.
- It seems that the timing for the sandbar varies by season, so if you want to see the sandbar, it's better to check the timing and decide whether to join in the morning or afternoon. We were in the afternoon, so we couldn't see the sandbar.
- There were many families, and I think it's a tour that children can enjoy as well.

午後の部に参加しました。
・船での生演奏はとても心地よく参加者の方が踊り始めたりととても良い雰囲気でした。
・バナナボートとバンパーチューブどちらも追加しました。日本じゃ味わえない速さです。叫びすぎて次の日声が枯れるくらい楽しかったです。
・シュノーケリングやサップ等の様々な遊びができるので飽きることがありません。
・軽食はサンドウィッチでした。
・お酒も別途購入することができて遊んだ後に友達とゆっくりお酒を楽しむこともできました。
・日本語ができる添乗員さんもいたのでとても安心でした。（毎回参加しているのかは分かりません）
・あまり天候が良くなかったのでもっと天気のいい日に行きたかったなと思います。
・サンドバーは時期によって時間帯が違うみたいなのでサンドバーに出会いたい方は時間帯をチェックしてから午前か午後に参加するかを決めたほうがいいです。私達は午後だったのでサンドバーをみることはできませんでした。
・家族連れの方も多く、子供も楽しめるツアーだと思います。

Kaneohe Sandbar Tour with Snorkel, Kayak, SUP & Live Hawaiian Music - Kaneohe Bay Ocean Sports

Calm, cool and amazing

Reviewed by: Isaac

Went with a family of 7. Everything was smooth sailing no pun intended. This trip is a Hawaii must! Very family oriented. They played soft calming music while serving fresh drinks and donuts. Once there you have the option to paddle board, snorkel (you can bring your own or they provide it free of charge) or just swim and lounge on a floating lounge area they have already there for guests. Water was crystal clear and fishes were everywhere near the reef. Water might be a little chilly for little ones just a heads up but all dependent on the weather but definitely doable.

It was a fun time! 楽しい時間でした‼️

Reviewed by: まき1881

This was my first time booking, and I chose the option with transportation. They clearly communicated the pickup location with photos beforehand, and I was concerned about my valuables while having fun, but they managed everything properly, allowing me to enjoy myself without worries. On the way to the sandbar, I was able to listen to some lovely songs. It gets quite cold after coming out of the sea, so a jacket or towel is necessary. The sandbar was not as shallow as I expected on the day, but I was truly impressed by the beauty of the sea. Both snorkeling and the banana boat were a lot of fun, and it's a place that everyone should experience at least once. There were staff members who spoke Japanese very well, making for a truly enjoyable time. I highly recommend this option.

今回、初めて申し込みをし、送迎付きにしましたが、事前にピックアップの場所を写真付きで分かりやすく連絡くださったり、遊んでいる間の貴重品も気になってましたが、きちんと管理してくださり、不安なく過ごせるように配慮して下さって安心して楽しむことができました。サンドバ―に向かってる間は素敵な歌を聴くこともできました。海からあがると、どうしても寒いので、上着やタオルは必要です。サンドバ―は当日は思ってたよりも、浅めではありませんでしたが、とにかく海の綺麗さに感動で、シュノーケルも、バナナボートも、とっても楽しく、一度は必ず体験してもらいたい場所です。日本語がとても上手なスタッフもいて、本当に楽しい時間でした。オススメのオプションです

Reviewed by: yamakawa

The Japanese guide provided commentary about Hawaii during the transfer, making it enjoyable from start to finish without any dull moments!

However, there are no breaks, so it might require some stamina...
(Of course, the guide will suggest going to the beach together if it gets too tough, and you can take a break from there.)

If you're not confident in your English or have concerns, I absolutely recommend this plan!

The crew was fantastic and even off the boat you could still enjoy the live music/tunes. Bring your own snacks so you won’t be hungry or buy from the mini store on the dock. We bought a bunch of breakfast items and they were delicious. I would absolutely book this again on our next visit… MAHALO

Onboard, Hawaiian music played like a live performance, making the journey enjoyable.

Once we arrived, we could freely play in the beautiful sea or take a break on the boat.

You can enjoy stand-up paddleboarding, kayaking, and snorkeling in the sea. There were also balls available for rent.
You can't wear shoes while paddleboarding or kayaking, but it might be good to have water shoes for snorkeling.

We were able to take turns using the paddleboards and kayaks.

Kaneohe Sandbar Tour with Snorkel, Kayak, SUP & Live Hawaiian Music - Kaneohe Bay Ocean Sports

Fantastic service; limited activity area

Reviewed by: Rachel

Every member of the staff was phenomenal. The live music was perfect, and they had a great (DJ style) song list that played while we were out on the water. It was convenient to be able to grab hot food or snacks and beverages at the dock. There was plenty of room on the boat and we didn't feel overcrowded. The one thing I would improve is the size of the activity area. I specifically signed up to kayak, and found that the only option was to just row in a big circle (the area was identified by bouyies). My friend also snorkeled, but there wasn't much to see at that time of day. I think the best part of the trip was when one of the staff members offered to take a few of us out on a small speed boat around the reef. We found that it was affordable and convenient to pay extra for pick-up and drop off.

I had some anxiety on my first trip to Hawaii, but the presence of Japanese staff made me feel at ease. Instead of breakfast, we enjoyed an all-you-can-eat donut feast on the moving boat! The ride was smoother than I expected, and we arrived in no time. The water level was higher than I thought, but the beautiful, clear sea was amazing. We had fun with SUP and snorkeling, and we even got some photos taken along the way. It gets quite cold after coming out of the water, so extra towels and a jacket are essential. Please be careful as the return bus can also be quite chilly.

2.5-Hour Turtle Snorkel Sail Tour from Waikiki Beach - Cold Brew Coffee, Snacks & One Drink Included

The sail was not hoisted once plus disregard for environment

Reviewed by: Lily

I was expecting to be sailing since we were aboard a sailboat. I was very disappointed and expressed my interest to sail with the crew (the wind was awesome) they said we could sail back. I brought this up several times and got other passengers excited about it as well. The crew decided we didn't have enough time even though we waited at the snorkel spot long after everyone had come out of the water. We did not get to sail back. Additionally when we were snorkeling I saw a turtle covered in fishing line all tangled up... I pointed this out to the crew and they said "oh well we cant touch them" with complete apathy.

It was quite depressing and the apathetic unenthusiastic crew just made it worse. Seek another sailboat tour. Maybe they will actually sail.
