Reviewed by: あっきー

This was my third time at Sandbar, and I was finally able to participate on a day that truly felt like "this is Sandbar!"

As soon as my Hawaii trip dates were set, I checked the tide levels and made a reservation for a day that coincided with the low tide, which only happens a few times a year.

Thank you to the friendly staff. I was able to enjoy skin diving, stand-up paddleboarding, kayaking, and other marine sports in excellent conditions with the blue sea and white sandy shallows.

If you go to Hawaii, you absolutely must experience this amazing adventure!

サンドバー3回目にして、まさしく
これがサンドバー！という日に参加できました

ハワイ旅行の日程が決まった時点で潮位を調べてそれが年に数回という干潮にあたる日に合わせて予約をさせていただきました。

気さくなスタッフの方々ありがとうございました。
青い海、浅瀬の白い砂という好コンディションの中でスキンダイビング、SAP、カヤック…マリンスポーツを堪能できました。

ハワイに行った際は是非是非この感動を体験しない手はありません！

Very enjoyable and unique experience

Reviewed by: Michelle

The sandbar activity was a very enjoyable and unique experience. The boat ride over is short (15 min.) with great music and a decent sandwich lunch. We did the SUP and snorkeled. Lots of fish to see. Plenty of time to do all the activities. The tide was high, about 4 feet but still so much fun. Made it better for snorkeling. Staff was so friendly and helpful.

This experience is definitely worth it. The staff and crew are so lovely, fun, and energetic, they brighten up your day as you head out to the sandbar. Their experience and overall "good vibes" makes the trip so enjoyable as you get to experience an amazing time out in the sandbar with music, activities, food, and community. Do it!

It was beautiful! 綺麗でした！

Reviewed by: ほぬみ

During the shuttle ride, a foreign guest made an effort to have a conversation in both English and Japanese, but the majority of the time was spent speaking in English, which made it a bit awkward. Since I participated with the expectation of Japanese support, I felt that multilingual sharing should be avoided as much as possible. Other than that, I had a great time!

送迎の車の中で外国の方が相乗りした際に英語と日本語両方で一生懸命交互に会話してくれたのですが、やはり英語で話す時間が圧倒的に多く気まずい時間でしたので日本語対応で参加している以上、多国語の相乗りは出来る限り避けて頂きたいと感じました。それ以外は大変楽しめました！

Guide Chieko and Ben provided thorough explanations and took underwater photos for us, so we didn't have to buy a waterproof case to capture beautiful pictures. Although I heard that booking Hanauma Bay can be quite a hassle, this tour allowed us to enjoy it without any of that trouble.

The response from the Japanese guide was poor. 日本人ガイドの対応が悪い

Reviewed by: yopiko

- The guided tour forced us to snorkel, and the details of the guided experience were unclear.
- When I asked to seat my child in the second row of the vehicle due to motion sickness, I was met with a very unpleasant expression and told to put them in the third row instead.
- I was told that they needed to keep up with the adults at the same speed, even though I have small children.
- When I mentioned that my child would be playing in the shallow water, I was told that was not allowed.
- I said that snorkeling was too difficult for my child and that we would stop midway, and I was met with various comments, ultimately being asked in a very intimidating manner, "Do you understand what I'm saying?" It's unimaginable.
- I pointed out that the voucher and the explanation during the outbound trip did not mention that we had to stay with the guide at all times and that if we didn't snorkel, we couldn't play in the shallow water, but their insistence did not change.
- I cannot recommend this at all for small children.

・ガイド付きツアーで強制的にシュノーケルをさせられる。ガイド付きの内容が不明確。
・往路の車で乗り物酔いする子で子供を2列目の席に座らせたいと言うと凄く嫌な顔をされて3列目にしてと言われる
・小さい子供がいるのに深い所まで大人と同じスピードで着いて来てもらわないと困ると言われる
・子供は浅瀬で遊ばせてますと言うとそれは出来ないと言われる
・子供には難しいのでシュノーケルを途中でやめておきますと言うと、色々言われ、最終的には「私の言っている事がわかるか？」と非常に威圧的な言葉を言われた。考えられない。
・バウチャーや往路の車中の説明にはガイドと終始行動し、シュノーケルをしない場合は浅瀬でも遊べないとの記載等が無いことを指摘したが強行性は変わらず
・小さな子向けにはおすすめ全くできません

Recommended for beginners who want to experience snorkeling. シュノーケルを体験したい初心者におすすめ

Reviewed by: アップルパイ

Even with last-minute reservations, you can feel secure as they confirm everything properly via email and phone. I was a bit anxious about the reception location since there was no sign (as mentioned in the reservation confirmation), but following the map sent with the confirmation helped me find it.

It mentioned to arrive 30 minutes early, but I ended up waiting with nothing to do until the start time, so the purpose of the early arrival was unclear.

The snorkeling experience starts with the instructor properly explaining how to handle the equipment, which is reassuring for beginners. I recommend it for those who want to safely try it out nearby. The water wasn't very clear, though.

直前予約でも、メールと電話できちんと確認されるので安心です。
当日の受付場所は、案内版がなくて（ないと予約確認書に書いてあります）不安でしたが、予約確認書に送られてくる地図に従うとたどり着くことができます。
開始30分前に来るようにと書いてあったのですが、何もすることなく開始時間まで待たされて、30分前集合の意図が不明でした。

シュノーケルは、インストラクターがきちんと器具の扱いを含めて説明をしてくれてから始まるので、初心者には安心です。
近場で安全に、とりあえず試してみたいという方にお勧めします。
海は、あまりクリアではありませんでした。

Reviewed by: kikies

This is my fifth visit to Hawaii after four years, but it was my first time at Hanauma Bay. Having experienced snorkeling in Miyako Island and the Great Barrier Reef, I underestimated it. Perhaps due to my age, I struggled with breathing through my mouth and even got seasick, so I was very grateful for the guide's assistance. The guide held my hand the whole time and helped me see a lot of colorful fish. Because Hanauma Bay is protected by nature, you can observe the fish eating the food stuck to the rocks. Even at over 60 years old, I felt safe with the guide's support. However, I recommend taking motion sickness medication for those who are concerned.

ハワイは4年ぶり5回目になりますが、ハナウマ湾は初めて行きました。
宮古島やグレートバリアリーフでシュノーケルを体験していたので甘く考えていたら、歳のせいか口呼吸は上手くいかず、しかも波酔いまでしてしまいガイドさんに大変お世話になりました。
ガイドさんがずっと手を繋いで案内をしてくださり、色とりどりの魚をたくさん見ることができました。ハナウマ湾は自然が守られているため、魚が岩についた餌を食べている様子を見ることができます。
60歳を過ぎていてもガイドさんがサポートしてくださるので安心です。ただし、心配な方は酔い止めを飲んでの参加をおすすめします。

It was good. 良かった

Reviewed by: sss

You will be picked up near the hotel and take a drive of about 30 minutes to the port.

Upon arrival at the port, you will transfer to a large boat that can accommodate around 60 people and head towards the sandbar. On the boat, donuts and drinks will be served, and there will be live Hawaiian music.

Once you arrive at the sandbar, you can do whatever you like, such as stand-up paddleboarding (SUP), kayaking, or snorkeling. Please note that there are limited SUP and kayak options, so you may have to wait your turn.

Afterward, you will return to the port by boat, then take a bus back to the location where you were picked up.

Since the bus seats are fabric, it's a good idea to bring a towel to sit on.

ホテルの近くでピックアップしてもらい、車で３０分程度ぼドライブして港にむかいます。

港に到着したら６０人位が乗り込める大型の船に移動して、船でサンドバーにむかいます。船の上ではドーナツや飲み物が配られ、ハワイアンミュージックの生演奏もあります。

サンドバーに到着したらSUPやカヤック、シュノーケリングなど各自やりたいことをやります。SUPとカヤックは数に限りがあるので、順番待ちになることもあります。

終わったらまた船で港に戻り、バスに乗り込みピックアップされた場所で降ろされます。

バスのシートは布製なので、座るところに敷く用のタオルを持っていくと良いです。

Since we had a large group, mostly consisting of people in their 60s and above, we decided to rent a private boat. It was great to be able to do things at our own pace. The captain was cheerful and charming, which made the experience very enjoyable. Although some members of our group didn't understand any English, it was very helpful that they used simple words. Even though it was a private boat, there were other participants nearby, and having Japanese staff made us feel at ease. The spam onigiri that was provided as a snack was delicious.

大人数で、60代以上が多かったので思い切って貸切ボートにしました。色々とマイペースにできてよかったです。船長さんも明るく可愛いかたでとても楽しめました。英語は少しもわからないメンバーでしたが、簡単な単語を使ってくれてとても助かりました。貸切ボートといっても、アクティビティは他の参加者さんもちかくにいるので、日本人スタッフもいて安心できました。

KBOS was awesome!

Reviewed by: Christine

The crew was wonderful! The musicians were amazing! If you don't have time to try different water activities on your trip, this is a great way to hit a lot of them. We were able to SUP, kayak, swim, lounge, and snorkel (the sandbar reef actually had quite a few different types of fish to see and since it is so shallow, it is a lot easier to snorkel here). They provide life jackets for all the activities and snorkel gear. We also did the banana boat and bumper activities and it was quite the adrenaline rush. For banana boat, they grouped us with two other pairs of people so we filled up the banana boat (holds 6 people), which made it more stable but half of us still fell off. It was very fun and quite an experience. There is definitely enough time to try everything. Their boat is pretty big so very stable and not likely to induce seasickness. They have two women's bathrooms, one men's, and one changing room. They provide donuts and water/juice but you can also bring your own food/drinks. There are plenty of tables and shelf storage underneath so your items aren't on the floor and won't get wet. Overall, a great time!

It was a very nice tour. It takes us out to the Kaneohe sandbar while providing live music entertainment. After arrival, we could choose to do a variety of activities including snorkelling, paddle boarding, kayaking, swimming or just relaxing at a floating lounge. You will be able to see coral reef and fish there. Staff is there to help and supervise. You can leave your belongings at the boat. The good thing about being in the middle of water is that your belongings are safe. I recommend wearing some kind of footwear on the sandbar because the sand there could be a little rough. Overall a very nice way to spend a morning or afternoon. Time flew by fast.
