Captain Bob's Kaneohe Sandbar Snorkel & BBQ Lunch with Free Transportation

Such an Amazing Time!

Reviewed by: ChristinaSteach, 2024/01/18

I was set on a tour that stopped at just the Sandbar, my mom insisted we do a tour that went to 2 locations... She was right! The sandbar is awesome and I encourage people to get out and walk around while you're there, play volleyball (if you want) or just enjoy being on land while under about 2 feet of water! Its wild! A Puffer Fish greeted us! She was much bigger than what I thought puffer fish were. We had burgers and drinks and were off to our second location ... the reef!! On our way we saw a bunch of sea turtles! They were HUGE! Some swam right up close to the boat! It was incredible. It was after a mild storm so the water wasn't 100% clear but still fairly clear. There were tons of colorful fish swimming all around us. I took a few mins to swim around the whole reef! Which every time I popped my head up and saw I was further away from the boat was a little scary and exciting! It was such a fantastic adventure day! My mom loved it, my kids were a little afraid at first at the reef but came to love it too! The crew... let me not forget about the crew! They are absolutely amazing! Knowledgeable, friendly,... when my daughter started to cry (9 years old) they knew her name and kept encouraging her! It was the sweetest! My son thought the main guide/lifeguard was the coolest and just wanted to swim where ever he swam (7 years old). The captain on our boat that day was a lady and also super friendly! Highly recommend to all ages and all skill levels! (I had my cell phone with a water protected case - i highly recommend. I purchased mine before the trip from REI, they sold similar ones in the ABC stores in Hawaii.)

ホエールウォッチングクルーズ ワイキキ指定ホテル送迎付きプランあり<午前・午後/ドリンク(飲み放題)付き/ケワロ湾発>

遠目に見えました。

Reviewed by: しろたん, 2024/01/16

ホエールウォッチングに参加しました。遠目にですが、クジラの姿も確認できました。もう少し近くで見たかったですが、風も気持ちよくてクルーズとして楽しめました。寒いくらいなので、長袖の上着は必須です。お迎えつきは現地集合よりも高くて迷いましたが、現地集合では、船が沢山あって、どこに行ったらいいか分からなかったと思います。安心して参加できたので、お迎えつきで良かったです。

ホエールウォッチングクルーズ ワイキキ指定ホテル送迎付きプランあり<午前・午後/ドリンク(飲み放題)付き/ケワロ湾発>

クジラを何回も観れました!

Reviewed by: POM, 2024/01/14

1月頭に午後帯で参加しました。
他のツアーもあり、迷いましたが、小さめでクジラにちょっとでも近づけるかも?と思ってこちらを申し込み。
天気は晴れでしたが、口コミで観れなかったという声もあったので、あまり期待しすぎずに。
小型のクルーズ船で15分ほど沖に出て、あとはその周辺でクジラが見えるのを待ちます。島の街並みが見えるほど島からもあまり離れていない場所だったので、どうかなと思いましたが、ものの10分ほどで、歓声が上がり、少し遠くにクジラの頭がちょこっと見れました!
それからも1時間ちょっとで6-7回はクジラの頭と尾ひれが見れ、すぐ目の前に現れたときも!参加人数もそこまで多くないので、人だかりで見えないということもなく、しっかり楽しめました。
スタッフの方も優しく、みんなでクジラを探すのも楽しかったです!

小型船ですので、酔い止めは予防も兼ねて飲んでから参加された方がいいと思います。1時間以上海を漂うので、一度酔ってしまうとクジラを見るどころではなくなってしまいます。

また、座る位置にもよりますが、水しぶきで服が濡れる可能性があるので、濡れても良い服装で参加されることをおすすめします。

サンドバー 天使の海 シュノーケリング&ウミガメウォッチクルーズ 船上のBBQグリルで焼くハンバーガーランチ付き<午前/日本語クルー>

冬のハワイの海を満喫

Reviewed by: りょう, 2024/01/13

悪天候でしたがスタッフの方々が気さくに話しかけていただき、非常に楽しく過ごさせて頂きました。
また、野生のウミガメもこんなに近くで見ることはというような距離でした。
冬のハワイは、結構寒く防寒着は持って行った方が良いと思います。サンドバーには降り立ちましたが、シュノーケルは寒くて船内待機していました。参加された方の数名は、ウミガメと並んでシュノーケルを楽しめたようで、次は夏のハワイで再挑戦したいと思いました。

My whole family enjoyed this experience! There were plenty of whales breaching and splashing all around us, they gave us a great show. The entire crew was friendly and knowledgeable about the whales and the catamaran too. I would recommend this trip to anyone during the whale season! We will do it again on our next trip.

ピックアップ時間に5分過ぎても来なかったので緊急連絡先に連絡したところ、数分前から止まっていた、違うツアー予定だったバスを回してくれました。
クルーズには十分間に合ったので問題無いのですが、連絡していなかったらどうなったのか、と思います。
クルーズ自体は楽しかったのですが、残念ながらホエールは見えませんでした。。

サンドバーは写真のような砂浜をイメージしていましたが、単なる浅瀬で、がっかりしました。またハンバーガーランチは小さく味もイマイチでした。
今まで参加したハワイのツアーはとても満足のいくものばかりでしたが、今回初めてがっかりしました。

Captain Bruce Kaneohe Sandbar Cruise with SUP, Guided Snorkel & Transportation

Great experience

Reviewed by: Lara, 2024/01/06

I wasn't sure what to expect but it was such a great time. Captain Z is awesome, Casey was knowledgeable and Jaime was a lot of fun to talk to. We were able to see turtles when snorkelling thanks to them telling us where to look. The water activities were fun and I got to Stand Up Paddleboard for a decent amount of time. We were supplied with plenty of snacks and drinks (hot and cold). Overall it was amazing and I would highly recommend.

Comments from activity operators

Aloha, thank you very much for joining our tour and letting us know that you had a great experience with us. Marine life including turtles in Kaneohe Bay are very special for us. We are delighted that you spotted some of them while snorkeling! Thank you so much for giving us a five-stars, we hope to welcome you back aboard soon. A hui hou

Waikiki Turtle Snorkeling Tour on a Private Catamaran - Hawaii Ocean Charters

Amazing experience!

Reviewed by: Radhika, 2024/01/03

Our family of 6 was excited about snorkeling and seeing turtles. My children and husband had never been before, so this was a perfect day with a Nick taking the kids through the water. It was a personal tour of the beautiful reef. My elderly parents preferred staying on the boat, but that was excellent too as Sam filled us in on all the history about the island. I would highly recommend taking the two-hour private charter as the attention to detail and attention to guests is unmatched. They had drinks and water for us.
What are you waiting for? Book your private charter today and experience your ocean snorkel on a level above the rest.

12月は運が良ければクジラが見られるとのことだったので、イルカやクジラが見られればいいなという程度でしたが、無事イルカが見られてとても満足です。
また、船は結構イケイケな音楽がかかって、お酒が何杯か飲めるので、非日常感が味わえました。

天候が悪く残念だったけれど…!

Reviewed by: いのまさ, 2023/12/30

生憎の雨模様でかなり寒く、ほとんどの人がサンドバーでは少し海に入って遊ぶだけでした。

ただ、自然のことですし、ハワイは12月が雨季ということで仕方がないですね。

海亀ウォッチングでは、多くの海亀を船上から見つけることができました。

その後、シュノーケリング。珊瑚礁の周りを魚が多く泳いでおり、いい経験になりました。願わくば次は夏のより暖かい季節に訪れたいと思います。

Budget-Friendly Waikiki Sunset Sail & BYOB Cruise - Mana Kai Catamaran

A splashing good time!

Reviewed by: Rachel, 2023/12/22

The team at Waikiki Sailing were a well-oiled sailing machine! The directions provided in the confirmation email were clear and easy to follow. Check in was smooth and the beach boarding only splashed us up to our shins. We decided to sit on the catamaran netting on a particularly windy day and were warned about getting splashed multiple times. We endured the soaking and had an amazing time, plus the crew helped grab our empties and snacks so we could continue to enjoy. I recommend Waikiki Sailing 10,000 times over!

Captain Bob's Kaneohe Sandbar Snorkel & BBQ Lunch with Free Transportation

Great fun! Well Worth the money!

Reviewed by: Jamie, 2023/12/19

So much fun. the bbq burgers were good. The 1st stop is not worth it to snorkel, not much to see, just enjoy the sandbar and the volleyball. the 2nd spot was good snorkeling b/c it was at a reef. Don't swim over top of it though. just around it. you can make it all the way around it with plenty of time to spare. It was very fun. The water was a little cold, but not too bad but thats probably because I went the week of Thanksgiving. They give you the gear you need, my suggestion is to fit the mask before you get down to the water. they give you full foot fins to use. The crew was super helpful and really nice. I definitely recommend!!

Waikiki Fireworks & Honolulu City Lights Evening Private Boat Charter

Must Do - Only way to see the fireworks

Reviewed by: Michael R, 2023/12/13

We had a party of 6 so did private charter. Only way to do the fireworks.

Boat was perfect and the crew was fantastic. Very timely and thoughtful. Right before dusk, captain saw a whale surface and we got to see it and the flute. Appreciated him catching it.

We got lucky and they texted day of to see if we wanted to go out early for the sunset. Got message late and they still made it work. Only a minimal extra charge.

Whale, sunset and fireworks. Doesn’t get any better. Highly recommend this tour.

サンドバー 天使の海 シュノーケリング&ウミガメウォッチクルーズ 船上のBBQグリルで焼くハンバーガーランチ付き<午前/日本語クルー>

キレイな海

Reviewed by: まき, 2023/12/11

ハネムーンで利用しました。
船で海に出て最初はサンドバーへ行き、ビーチバレーや、シュノーケリングの練習、写真撮影等楽しみました。そのあと船の上でハンバーガーを食べ、シュノーケリングスポットに移動しました。
荷物は船の座席の下に収納できるようになっていました。
海から上がってきて濡れた状態でタオルをとったり荷物を出し入れするので濡れてもいいカバンを持って行くのがいいと思います。
着替えは下に水着を着て行くので船の上で着ていた服を脱いで席の下に収納します。濡れないように服も入れられる大きさのカバンがいいと思います。
サンドバーは水面が腰あたりでしたがとても楽しめました。水の色がサンドバーのところと深いところとはっきりわかれているので安心して楽しめました。
ビーチバレーはクルーの方がとても盛り上げてくれ楽しかったです。
ハンバーガーはBBQスタイルで美味しかったです。
ソフトドリンクはツアーの料金内で飲み放題、アルコールは1杯8ドルで飲んだ方はツアーの最後にまとめてお会計されていました。
移動中にウミガメやマンタをたくさん見ることができました。
マンタは時期によっては見れないこともあるそうで2回も見れてラッキーとのことでした。
シュノーケリングはサンゴの近くに行って行いました。
キレイな色のお魚がたくさん見れました。
私は見れませんでしたがカメが見れた人もいました。
クルーの方のシュノーケリングの説明はとてもわかりやすかったので初めてでも大丈夫です。
船から出てからは自分たちで船に戻らないといけないので体力に自信がある方以外はライフジャケットを着た方が安心して楽しめると思います。
シュノーケリングから戻ったらクルーの方が温かいお湯を上からかけてくれます。
終了後更衣室やシャワー室はないので寒くなる前にトイレ等でささっと着替えるか上から厚めのバスタオルを羽織るといいと思います。
