Seniors, couples, solo travelers, even kids --- would like this tours to experience the sandbar and snorkeling (turtles and school of fish... love it!!!) The company even brought floaties and paddle boards for you to use for free!!! My mom got scared of the snorkeling part so she didn't do it but she still enjoyed the boat ride and the sandbar! It was a nice experience for the rest of my family and I... we saw many tortoises and swam with them. I recommend trying Captain Bruce Tour!

This was an amazing thing to do. Staff was awesome , friendly and very helpful. We had an absolute blast!!!!! Recommend this for sure as a must do. Outside of the scooter we got to swim/snorkel with a sea turtle which was outstanding. Thank you for the adventure.

It was cool experience, nice drinks. There weren't many turtles and the sea was not very clear there so we couldn't see many fishes or nature.

Super fun experience, all three guides were very nice and great hosts. They really kept a look out on all of their guests to ensure their safety. If I ever came back I would definitely do it again.

This experience was amazing and the crew even better. Got to see three sharks, and although my heart was pounding I felt shockingly safe and had a great time. Would definitely do it again and I don’t think I could do/experience it any other way but this way again. Please do check these guys out! 100% recommend!

The Crew of the Honu Lani was great. Jimmy, the Captain gave clear and informative safety briefing and also snorkeling recommendations. He was very professional and his crew was EVERYWHERE! They were at the stern when we got in and out of the water, at the bar serving beverages, putting out lunch, in the water when we were snorkeling. Crew was Andrea, Alek, Marco and another girl interviewing for a deckhand job. They were all great! Andrea was so nice and helped the passengers nonstop the entire cruise. Alek is the man, (I think Bernie Sanders is his Dad). A friend of mine jumped off the side of the boat and her iWatch came off. This Cat (Alek) jumped in like David Hasselhoff and came up with it on the first dive down. I think he was more surprised than we were, it is a big Ocean. Marco was nice also, sorry guy, did not talk to you much.
Overall, great cruise. 95% great because of the crew!

Everyone on the boat had a great vibe that made the trip that much better. There’s nothing like swimming on the open ocean with sharks

Jason and Alan were very friendly and knowledgeable. Jason took me out to snorkel and I saw fish, coral, and turtles. The sandbar was really cool and neat. I recommend Captain Bruce.

Kellie and Shelly were incredible hosts!!! Extremely knowledgeable. We were the only ones they had five manta Reis under our board because of their expertise!! Their fun attitude was contagious!
Mahalo for the 5 star recommendation! We also appreciate your shout out to your captain and crew. We are so happy to hear that you had a fun time out with us! Please come and see us again soon!

I had a BLAST!! Captain Dave and his first mate were the best tour guides and I would recommend this to anyone. I had a hard time with sea sickness, and both Dave and his helper were so attentive and helpful. I truly had an amazing time.

We had a great time. The crew was exceptionally friendly. The boat was clean and they offered drinks and snacks.
I can’t say enough on the crew members they were very accommodating and made our trip extremely fun
The views were incredible. Snorkeling on the barrier reef was a one of a kind experience.
Mahalo Claudia! We're very pleased to hear that you had a great time at sandbar. Thank you so much for joining us and giving us your wonderful review. We hope to see you in the near future!

We had so much fun! I believe we saw 4 or 5 Manta Rays. One kept doing flips and brushing against us. It was a great experience, and the crew was extremely nice and fun.
Aloha Tori,
Thanks for joining us and taking the time to review us. They are truly magical marine species. We are thrilled to hear you had a great experience with us. We hope to see you soon!

This excursion was okay at best. Though we were able to see dolphins, which was lovely, the snorkeling was blah. First the company took us south along the island, versus out into the ocean, and guided us snorkeling right by a power plant on the shoreline. There were some pretty fish, maybe 3-4 different species. The coral was not colorful; they informed us that is typical for Hawaii. Friends we have that live on the islands state there are beautiful coral reefs, you just need to know where to find them. Apparently, this company does not know where to find these reefs. The catamaran ride was just lovely, but that's it. Again, nothing special. The crew were fine when talking to us as a group but not one-on-one. Then they seemed guarded and annoyed. I would not recommend this excursion.

1人で行ったのですが、スタッフが親切で十分楽しめました。ウミガメが(触ってはいけないのですが)3度位近くまで泳いで来て感動しました。
ホノルルからバスで行ったのですが、2時間は余裕を持って出発することをお勧めします。着替えも用意していきましょう。
アロハ!キャプテンブルース天国の海ツアーです。この度はツアーへのご参加、誠にありがとうございました。ウミガメとの出会いやSUP体験など盛りだくさんで楽しんでいただいたようでとても嬉しいです。素敵な写真のシェアをありがとうございます

There was no sailing on this trip.The Manta rays are close to where the boat goes in the water. I thought we would have a nice sail while the sun was setting and then get in the water but that was not the case. This experience was both boring and exciting. You are in the water for 45 minutes lying flat with arms outstretched holding onto the handle on one of several connected "light boards"while you have your snorkeled face in the water, and are balancing a noodle under your ankles. You brush up against the people on either side of you.The motion of the ocean gets to be a bit much for many people. I heard a crew member say to another "at least no one puked this trip". I have never been sea sick but started feeling queasy and did get out with about 10 minutes to go. You can raise your arm and be escorted back to the boat at any time.You are provided with a half wet suit but still you get chilled. If you have any shoulder problems I would think twice about doing this trip. All that being said it was so cool when the Mantas did show up and swim right past you! There weren't many but I got some good video and stills with a camera that I borrowed from a friend. Maybe there is a better time of day or year to see more mantas? If you're positioned on a middle light board you have time to get the camera set because you will hear the people at the ends of the the light boards ooh and aah and cheer! I probably would not do this trip again but notice I didn't say never! The boat was nice , the crew was fine.
Aloha Mae,
We are so sorry to hear you found your experience less than stellar. We appreciate your feedback. We often do try to do some sailing prior to heading to the Manta Ray Village, however factors of getting the best viewing spot for our guests may have disrupted the sailing part as many times through out the year we'll have northern boats come down to view the manta's if they haven't been seeing any at their usual location. Our best recommendation for hanging on to the light rafts would be to not be tense, this can make for an unpleasant experience for anyone, including people with shoulder problems. It's best to relax and go with the flow of the ocean rather than against it. Although we are sad to hear you didn't enjoy your whole time with us, we are happy to hear you enjoyed the stars of the show. They are truly magical. We hope you'll give us another try on a return visit to the islands. Mahalo Nui Loa!
