今まで、海外でシュノーケリングを楽しみましたが、透明度の高い入江でこれほどまで多くの魚に出会えたことがなく、貴重な体験でした。入場チケットも予約が取れないほど人気な場所ですが、ツアーならではの楽ちんさが魅力的です。

We loved everything about this tour! The boat was comfortable and clean and there was plenty of room for our gear. The food was excellent. My husband and I are omnivores, but we thoroughly enjoyed the vegan lunch and breakfast! The snorkeling was so much fun and we were fortunate enough to have perfect weather. We brought our own snorkel equipment and fins, but the boat was equipped with all of that plus life vests, pool noodles, inner tubes, sun screen and anti fog spray for masks. Last, but most importantly, the crew was amazing. Everyone was so caring and helpful and made sure we felt comfortable and safe in the water and out. We will be sure to book with Fair Wind Cruises again when we travel to the Big Island.

Loved this trip! My group and I had the BEST time. Loved the floating platform for hanging out, having some drinks, dancing (we brought our own waterproof speaker).
Some of our group also liked trying the stand up paddleboarding (though noted the area you're allowed to go in is pretty small) and the snorkling.
Would definitely recommend for a big group, such an easy way to get everyone out to the sandbar and enjoy the stunning turquoise waters. We did it as part of our wedding week with guests.

My husband and I really enjoyed the Sunset Snorkel Cruise! The views were beautiful and the crew were so nice! I was nervous about trying to snorkel but the crew was super helpful and I felt safe (life vest and I was able to use a floatie as well) and we saw lots of colorful fish and sea turtles! The cocktail service was great, tasty and generous. Unfortunately during the return portion of the cruise, I felt a bit seasick (did not really affect my enjoyment of the cruise though) so only ate rice for dinner but my husband enjoyed the food which was plentiful. If you are prone to motion sickness (which I am) that would be my only advice, I forgot my accupressure wristbands which do actually work fairly well. I liked that the group was small and we had the freedom to move around and sit and stand where we wanted and all the guests were pleasant and we felt comfortable socializing and getting to talk to other people. I highly recommend this cruise!

波が高く内海のみでしたが、逆に内海に海亀が入ってきてくれて、とても楽しめました。準備、講習、着替えがあるので泳ぐのは1時間程度ですが、結構ふらつきます。ガイドさんは日本語の話せるDさんと日本人のCさん2名で、とてもフレンドリーに対応してくれます。

The crew was super friendly, accommodating, efficient and fun to be around.
The snorkelling was as expected - lots of people, and commercial but we got to check off swimming with sea turtles off our bucket list on our final day on the island
Gear was clean and in great condition. The boat was immaculate and the drinks were flowing and the adult ones were strong!!

Must see when in Hawaii it’s about a 20 minute boat ride out to the sandbar and there’s few companies have monopoly on it. However, they do make it enjoyable and relaxing. They have stand up paddle boards and kayaks for use but it’s only a small area you can go. This is just for relaxing and viewing Hawaii from a really beautiful location. Snorkeling isn’t the best because you’re only able to see a few fish. So what they could do better… selling or including drinks onboard. You have to bring everything with you although if you pay the fee you receive a bag of chips, a sandwich and juice/water. I didn’t like that we had to wear a life vest to snorkel, but maybe it’s to protect the coral so you don’t stand on it. Other than that the live music was awesome and everyone had fun.
Mahalo for your review and pictures! Sorry for the life jackets, but Coast Guard requires each customer to wear life jackets during activities. - Team KBOS

Went for spring break and had an amazing time. SHOUT OUT TO CALEB NICOLE AND NOAH they were an awesome and attentive crew! Definitely would recommend, we saw at least 2 different turtles and a whole bunch of different schools of fish. The boat was super nice and we got nice pictures. we had perfect snorkeling weather too!

Embarking on the snorkeling and kayaking adventure at Sanbar was an unforgettable experience that truly encapsulated the essence of exploring nature's underwater marvels while enjoying the serene beauty of the open waters. The crystal-clear waters offered an unobstructed view of vibrant marine life and mesmerizing coral formations, making the snorkeling experience nothing short of magical. Each moment spent underwater felt like being in a different world, surrounded by a kaleidoscope of colors and life.
The kayaking segment of our adventure was equally impressive. Paddling through the calm waters with the sun casting a golden hue over the landscape was incredibly peaceful and allowed for a unique perspective of the Sanbar's picturesque coastline. The kayaks were well-maintained and easy to maneuver, making the experience enjoyable for both beginners and experienced kayakers alike.
What truly made the experience stand out was the exceptional guidance and support from the staff. Their expertise and passion for the marine environment were evident, as they pointed out interesting flora and fauna, ensuring we didn't miss any of the hidden gems beneath the waves or along the shore.
Overall, the snorkeling and kayaking experience at Sanbar is a must-do for anyone looking to immerse themselves in the beauty of nature, whether underwater or gliding on the surface. It's an ideal adventure for those seeking tranquility, excitement, and a deeper appreciation for the natural world.
Mahalo for your great review and beautiful picture! -Team KBOS

冬のハワイの海はウエットスーツ必須ですよ、とのことだったのでもう先にツアー料金に組み込んで頂き、追加料金の発生が無いと便利だなと思った。ハワイもシュノーケルも初心者だったため、ウエットスーツは頼まずツアー希望していた。ゆっくりペースでとても深いところまで行ったりしてすごく貴重な体験をした。子供達も印象的だったようで、怖かったけどお魚さん見れた!と興奮していた。

サンドバーとはいうものの、実際に砂浜になるのは年数日だそうです。
1番深い所で1メートルくらいかな?
海の中で、ゆるめのマリンレジャーができるのは良いです。
外国の方はビール等を持ち込んで飲んでいる人もいました(船や浮島で)
マリンスポーツという感じではないので、良い景色を見ながらゆる~く楽しめました。
弊社ツアーは時間セットを設けておりませんのでアクティビティをしたり、のんびり浮島でくつろいだり、ぱぺ様の様に景色を眺めを楽しんでいらっしゃる方もおり、皆様好きなようにサンドバーを楽しんで頂いております。この度はツアーへご参加いただき誠にありがとうございました。 KBOS スタッフ一同

We had an amazing time. It was a really easy process from boarding and check in to the snorkeling to getting back to the dock. We got to see lots of fish and turtles. Anna and Zane were super helpful in making us feel comfortable especially since this was our first time snorkeling, I would recommend this especially if you are a first timer, we had a great time and really enjoyed every second of it
Aloha Sergio,
Im so glad to hear you had a great time out there with us and to hear our crew took great care of your party! look forward to having you guys back out with us soon!

風は冷たかったですが、日差しは暖かく、海水も冷た過ぎず、最後まで海の中で楽しめました。
シュノーケルの所やカヤックの所には、スタッフがサポートしてくれましたので安心して楽しむことがでしました。
船内では、生演奏の中、ドーナツ・飲み物が飲み放題で、船内にいても楽しめました。
この度はツアーへご参加いただき誠にありがとうございました。安心してツアーを楽しんで頂けた様で大変嬉しく思います。 KBOS スタッフ一同

The water was a little cold so we got out of the water sooner than we would have wanted, and so we didn’t see as much as we had hoped to. But we had fun and would do it again. Hopefully next time we will see more.

Everything that we expected was delivered. We had a great time and saw so many whales on the way over to the snorkeling area. We spent just enough time in the water to not get bored or overwhelmed. Would definitely do it again!

朝8時過ぎに近くのホテルでピックアップして貰い、ホノルルから船乗り場まで30分くらいの感じでした。
思っていたより大きなクルーザーでツアーに参加される人が30人くらいと10人くらいスタッフが居ましたが、それでも随分余裕がありました。
初めに日本語が話せるスタッフに色々な説明を受け、クルーザーが動き出し、ウクレレの生演奏や歌を聴いている間にサンドバーに到着しました。
3時間の自由時間があり、ウチはバナナボートやバンパーチューブを申し込んでいたので先にそちらに案内されました。
それが終わるとシュノーケリングをしたのですが、思っていたより深く163cmの私の股上あたりまで水がありました。でも珊瑚周辺は沢山の魚がおり子供が大喜びしていました。あとは水上バレーや浮き輪で浮いてる人、クルーザー中でゆっくり過ごす人様々でした。
その日はたまたまかと思いますが、風が強く気温も上がらずとにかく寒い!バスタオルは持参と書いてあったのですが、さらっと体を拭くだけかと5人で3枚しか持っていかなかったので体を吹いたあとは寒くて子供たちがバスタオルを頭から被っていたので親の私たち寒くて震えていましたが、暖かいハーブティーを用意してくれ何とかしのげました。
なので、参加される方は荷物になりますが、海から出たあと羽織れるものを持参される方がよいかと思います。
スタッフの方は皆フレンドリーで英語の拙い私たちの英語も理解しようとしてくださり感謝でした。
海の中でも行っても良い場所までロープが張られ、あちこちにスタッフの方が立って下さっており目が行き届く所で遊ぶ感じになっていました。
軽食はドーナツ数種類、オレンジジュース、水、ハーブティーでしたが、子供がこのドーナツを気に入り何度もお代わりしていたくらいでした。
あと、トイレも男女別で2つずつ用意されており綺麗でした。
またハワイに行ったらまた参加したいです
この度はツアーにご参加頂き誠にありがとうございました。天気が崩れたり風が吹いていると海から上がられた後に肌寒さを感じられることが多いため、Mikan様がおっしゃったように羽織れるものをご持参頂くとよろしいかと思います。またハワイへお越しの際には是非、ご参加お待ちしております。 KBOS スタッフ一同

他の口コミ通りという感じでした。
ツアーというよりはホテルまでの送迎のみでした。完全英語対応だったので英語ができる方しか楽しめないと思います。
ハナウマ湾入口に着くとガイドは帰ってしまい自分でチケット購入し、自由行動という感じでした。
送迎のみの割には値段が高いと思いました。そこにチップを払うのは少し抵抗がありました。
ハナウマ湾の中にシュノーケルセットをレンタルできる場所もあったので正直自分でレンタカーして行くのが1番かと思いました。
ハナウマ湾自体は最高でまた機会があれば行きたいと思いました!!おすすめです!

ハワイ三度目にして、初めてカイルアビーチに来ました。
ワイキキより人も少なくてとてもロマンティックに過ごせます。新婚旅行?のお二人が多い様に感じられ、見ていて微笑ましかっです。
お店でゴザとビーチチェアを借りられるのでまったりビーチで過ごした後、お店に戻りランチしました。ランチの種類も多くて美味しかったです。
送迎のハーフのお兄さんもお店のお姉さんも優しくてテキパキしており、話しやすくて素敵な方達でした。
ロッカーも着替えルームもトイレも綺麗で使いやすかったです。
今回は、ビーチの後にカイルアタウンに送ってもらい買い物しましたが次回は自転車レンタルしてラニカイビーチにも行きたいと思います。
スタッフの皆様ありがとうございました。
たまママ様
ご来店及びレビューのご記入ありがとうございました。
カイルアビーチは、静かでワイキキビーチなどと違う良さがありますよね。
またハワイにお越しの際は是非ともカイルアに遊びにいらしてください。
スタッフ一同心よりお待ち致しております。
ありがとうございます。

This is our second time with Captain Bob's, and we will definitely return.... We recommend this group because they are very knowledgeable, you get to play on the sandbar, enjoy a great lunch, snorkel around a small reef and they take you to a spot to see many turtles!!!!
Our captains were so helpful with our family members that needed extra help, they were so attentive to their needs and were watching our for them all the time...... They were so friendly and pleasant to be around..... Awesome, fantastic, wonderful, excellent were the words my family of 6 kept saying over and over...... We highly recommend Captain Bob's and will definitely return when we come back to Oahu....
