他の方も書かれていましたが気候に恵まれたら色々体験出来るお得なツアーだなぁと、一か八かで申し込みました。が海水温が低く、風が強くて高額だったのにバツゲームみたいでしたガッカリ。砂洲はありませんでした

日本語を流暢に話す女性のスタッフがいました。乗船前の説明は完璧でしたが、乗船後は話しかけにくい雰囲気を出していて質問があっても聞けませんでした。他の国の参加者には笑顔で自ら話しかけていましたが、私達には笑顔さえ向けてくれませんでした。私は日本人にはおすすめしません。他のスタッフの皆さんはとても親切でした。

桟橋から大型ボートで生演奏を聴きながら20分ほど移動。すでにこの段階で強風にさらされ萎えました(笑)バナナボート&チューブを利用しましたが、波がそこそこあったこともありエキサイティングでしたし、2人のりカヌーに乗っていた時は大きなウミガメに遭遇し大変貴重な経験をさせてもらいました。
とにかく風が強く寒いので注意してください

初めてサンドバーに行きました。あいにく潮の干満加減でサンドバーは出ていませんでしたが、案内のガイドさんが上手に盛り上げてくれたので楽しい時間を過ごせました。また行きたいか?と聞かれると即答はできませんが(笑)旅の思い出としては一度はいいのではないかと思います(^^)

This was a great experience for those who aren’t very active. The staff and crew were super friendly and the live music was awesome and they were super engaging.
However, if you’re looking for more of an adventure this is not the trip for you. Mind you, this is not a criticism at all. At the sand bar, the water is knee high, and they make you wear a life jacket for snorkeling in water where you can literally touch the ground. All other activities also require life jackets in knee deep water.
We personally would not do this trip again, but we would definitely recommend it for those who want to be in the water but don’t want to take any risks.

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.

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

Great experience from pick up to a relaxing day at the beach enjoying Hawaii’s beautiful landscapes!!
Capt Bob and his crew were excellent.

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.

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

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

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

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....

We were so excited to go swim at the sandbar and are so glad we decided to take a boat. Excursion includes a ride to the sandbar with refreshments, crew-led snorkeling, and free time. Was nervous that I wasn't able to swim too well for the snorkeling portion but Jayson was awesome and floated me & three other people through the deep water. Great experience for folks of all ages and backgrounds!
Mahalo for choosing Captain Bruce and sharing this fantastic review! We're thrilled to hear you had an amazing experience at the sandbar with our captain Jayson and crew, and also you felt comfortable during our tour. We would love to welcome you back on board and have a great time again soon! A hui hou :)

We love the setting of the boat lounge. All the staffs are very friendly and helpful. We love the donuts and drinks! The singers while sailing are also good. We also love how they guide us on how to do the snorkeling and how they are protecting us while doing our sandbar activities. Special thanks to Toby for checking on us while doing the paddle board. We will definitely go back with them on our next Oahu trip! Highly recommended! Don't go somewhere else if you want the best Sandbar experience!!!
We really appreciate the recommendation and hope to see you again soon! Mahalo! - Team KBOS

We had a great time with fantastic performances and snacks even before arriving at the sandbar. Even after the boat stopped, their wonderful performance continued. Thanks to that, returning to the boat after activities wasn't boring. Moreover, kids can see a lot of fish at a shallow depth for snorkeling. I highly recommend this tour! The staff are extremely kind and friendly.
