朝イチだったこともあり、晴れていて海の中もきれいで色んな種類の魚に会えました。4年前には同じ場所でウミガメやアザラシにも会えたのですが、今回は会えずでしたが・・。
でも、ご夫婦でガイドをされていて、旦那さんも日本語が上手で、面白い魚がいると「●●がいるよー」と声をかけてくれてとっても楽しめました。途中で疲れた方は奥様と一緒に先に岸に戻って・・といったことや、撮影に夢中になってみんなに置いてかれている私を見つけて引っ張って行ってくれたりと、参加者みんなが楽しめるような気遣いもとっても感じました。
行き帰りの車の中でもいろんな情報を教えてくれて、とっても楽しかったです。
Google Pixel 7Proを防水スマホケースに入れて撮影を試みましたが、8割がたピンボケしていたのでやっぱりGoPro持っていけばよかったと思いました。ただ、ガイドさんが撮影した写真をいくつかFacebookに上げてくれているので、それをDLさせていただきました(無料です)!自分がみた光景をきれいな写真に残せている気分でありがたかったです。

今回小学3.5年と一緒でしたが、足ビレがあるおかげでスイスイ泳げていました!子供達は今回の旅で一番楽しかったと言っていて、船からの飛び込みも楽しかったようです。ハンバーガーはミート感がしっかりあって、大きく食べ応えがあり美味しくて大満足です!!ドリンクも飲み放題で、子供たちは海から上がった後のあったかいココアがお気に入りでした。スタッフさん達も皆さん素敵な方ばかりでビーチバレーにトークもサイコーでした。本当にありがとうございました!!!!

Really well organised activity with Kaimana Tours. Our driver Koa was excellent, providing lots of insights to the surroundings during our drive there. Pickup was on time, in a comfortable spacious van. We arrived and were first in line to get tickets which was simple and organised. The snorkeling gear was great, both sizing and quality for what we needed. I’d recommend going on the 6am pickup, as by the time we left at 11, it was getting really busy and there were not many places with shade. Kaimana offer umbrellas & chairs for hire too.

We arrived at the requested 8:45 am check in, but at 9:30 the shuttle showed up with the remaining tour guests? Then we had to move to accommodate a larger party. The musical entertainment and staff were marvelous and of course feeding the fish was awesome overall pretty cool, next time we'll kayak un ourselves

My family and I had a great time out at the Sandbar. We have never snorkeled or been on a paddle boat. The crew was super helpful and made us feel very comfortable that at the end of the day we were all pretty good on SUP boards. The live music was awesome. Would definitely recommended to family and friends.

Group of 6 with young kids and my parents in their 70s. We arrived at 845 for a 9am departure. Signed waivers and bought stuff at the harbor- really nice store with snacks, beer, sodas. Didn’t depart till 915 so I felt a little robbed for our time at the sand bar. Which is my only complaint because we wanted to soak up every minute. All the activities advertised were there. Live band was fun. Morning Donuts were huge. Water and juice was nice. The drive there and back was smooth. Staff was very nice. My 3 year old wanted to “help” during clean up but was more in the way and the staff was very chill. They offered snacks when they saw he was sad to be leaving. We will definitely consider coming back for the longer and catered afternoon tour. Thanks.

We were pleasantly surprised to find this last minute on our trip! We drove from Waikiki, definitely need to arrive early for parking! It was easy to find. Staff was very fun and knowledgeable, live music was great, even the lunch was simple but fresh and delicious! You can bring whatever you need on the boat and have access to it at all times. Location is beautiful. We unfortunately had a very windy day which made water choppy and chilly for me but still a very great experience! Many beautiful fish and my boyfriend was lucky enough to get close to a sea turtle! Highly recommend booking this activity! They even have a lifeguard in the water, good for all ages!
We appreciated your time for this review, kind words for our crew, and so happy to know that you enjoyed the Sandbar. Mahalo! - Team KBOS

This was one of the best experiences I had while vacationing on Oahu. The bay is absolutely beautiful and it was so much fun to explore. However, The band and the crew are really what made the experience. The band was excellent, and the crew members were all so kind and helpful. It seemed like everyone working on the boat was genuinely happy to be there. Being in their presence helped me understand the “aloha spirit” a little bit more. Thank you so much for a beautiful day!

I was very excited for this event and it actually far exceeded my expectations. The ride to the sand bar was pretty quick however I wish it was longer because they had an amaaaazing live band. Kaawa Entertainment. I could listen to them forever. Unfortunately, we reached our destination, and I could no longer listen to them. However, playing in the sandbar was soooo much fun. I thoroughly enjoyed the kayaking and paddle boarding. They also had snorkeling which I didn't enjoy as much. But my wife really loved the snorkeling. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful. My wife and I both had trouble steering the paddle board initially and we were out of bounds. But the staff was very nice about it and helped us back in bounds. The sandbar is so amazing where you're in the middle of the ocean yet you are walking on sand. There were no waves so it was pretty easy to maneuver around. I could've stayed there for hours longer but the event was over. 10 stars out of 5. If you go please tip the staff and entertainment a looot. They really made the experience sooo much more fun. Highlight of our 8 day trip to Hawaii.

いつか行ってみたいなと思っていたサンドバーでシュノーケリングとSUPをしてきました!
まず、別料金ですが近くのホテルまでバンで迎えに来てもらい港まで30分ぐらいで着きました!
(15人ぐらい乗っていたかな?1番最後に乗ったのでそれぐらいの時間でした)
港に着くと、トイレがあるので済ませておき、書類にサインなどして説明を受けました。
トイレは船の中にもあり、女性用2つ男性用1つありました。
日本人の女性が1人と日本語を喋れる男性(関西弁笑)が1人いました。
船に乗ると、男性2人がギターとウクレレで演奏して盛り上げてました!
(休憩で船に戻った時に、スピーカーで音楽をかけられていたので曲をリクエストしたらかけてくれました)
初めてSUPに挑戦しましたが、風が吹いていた為漕ぐよりも流されるに近いかんじでした笑
ただ、風が止むとしっかり進むので楽しかったです!
赤い浮きより先に行ってはいけなかったので、頑張って漕いでましたがなかなか進まず、それを見かねた日本語を喋れる男性(関西弁)が引っ張って助けてくれました笑
シュノーケリングは珊瑚礁の近くに行くと、スタッフの方がフランスパン?を渡してくれて、それを海の中でちぎると魚達が出てきてたくさん見る事が出来ました!
あと珊瑚礁の方には小さいキレイな魚がいましたが、船の近くの方の腰より高いぐらいの所に行き餌をやっていると1m弱ぐらいのとても大きい魚もたくさん見る事が出来ました!
スタッフの方に聞くと、白身の魚で食べたら美味しいそうです笑
残念ながらウミガメは見ることが出来なかったですが、また次回の楽しみにしておきます
5月上旬に参加しましたが、海からあがると肌寒く、着替えは持って来ずにバスタオルのみだったのでワンピースなど簡単に着れる着替えがあったらよかったと後悔しました。
天気も良くて全体的に良いツアーでした!
この度はツアーへのご参加、体験をシェアして頂きありがとうございました。楽しんで頂けた様ですね、大変嬉しく思っております。またのご参加是非お待ちしております。 KBOS スタッフ一同

My boyfriend and I are locals and haven’t been to the sandbar in years. This tour was everything we were hoping for and more! The staff was super friendly, engaging, and really went out of their way to ensure everyone had a good time. The boat is pretty spacious so there’s plenty of shade when you need a break from the sun. Plus you can’t go wrong with live music! Not sure if any other tours offer that! We will definitely be booking again :).

From the moment we boarded the boat, we were provided a delicious lunch and greeted with the friendly staff and hilarious emcee.
The live Hawaiian music created an ambience of enchantment. The live performances were sensational, perfectly capturing the spirit of the islands.
The variety of water activities was truly impressive. Snorkeling provided us a stunning glimpse into the vibrant marine life, while the sandbar volleyball turned out to be an unexpected delight. I was personally taken with standup paddle boarding (SUP) and kayaking - both were exhilarating experiences that offered different perspectives of the water.
Not to forget the floating lounge platform! It was the perfect place to unwind, enjoy our drinks and snacks, and simply soak in the beauty of the surroundings. Everything was wonderfully organized and the boat was equipped with all the necessary amenities.
In short, this activity was more than just a day out on the water; it was a vibrant blend of culture, excitement, and relaxation. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for an unforgettable Hawaiian adventure. Five stars are simply not enough!
Mahalo for your great review!
