Visit the Manoa Chocolate Factory on Oahu - America’s Largest Tree to Bar Chocolate Tour
Chocolate Factory
Activity Date: 2026/02/27 | Posted on: 2026/03/22

We had such a fun visit to the Manoa Chocolate Factory on Oahu with my toddler daughter. She loved it, and so did I.

The tour starts with a really interesting intro about how they source cacao locally, which gives the chocolates unique flavors from different islands. The chocolate fountain tasting was definitely a highlight for us. Everything was so rich and delicious.

We ended up picking up a few chocolates to take home. Highly recommend stopping by and supporting a local business like this.

Kaneohe Sandbar Tour with Snorkel, Kayak, SUP & Live Hawaiian Music - Kaneohe Bay Ocean Sports
Nothing but the best.
Activity Date: 2026/02/27 | Posted on: 2026/03/21

I had to share the experience to my sister and her family that my kids and I had the first time we went here back in June 2025. For my nephew's bday March of 2026, I suggested to go to the Kaneohe sand bar again. The consistency of their best service is just really incredible. From the warm welcome of the staff, the island vibe voices of the singers, the lifeguards who constantly keeping an eye to the kids, the captain who made the banana boat super exciting and safe. The place, the view and the people gave us all an unforgettable experience. Looking forward for the next visit, hopefully with the rest of our extended family. Mahalo/ Salamat!

Ko Olina Sunset Sail & Kaula Luau Experience on Oahu with Catamaran Cruise & Polynesian Dinner Show
An unforgettable evening of ocean adventure, great food, and lively entertainment
Posted on: 2026/03/19

[Reviewed by HawaiiActivities.com Staff]

​The evening began with a warm welcome as guests boarded the catamaran around 5:00–5:15pm, accompanied by live music at the dock. Light snacks were available and an open bar offered a variety of tropical cocktails and local beers, creating a fun, relaxed atmosphere. The boat was quite full, which led to long lines at the bar and limited snacks at times. The sail departed around 5:30pm and lasted about an hour. Ocean conditions were still a bit rough following recent storms, but we were still able to spot a few whales, which added a special touch to the experience.

​After returning to shore, we headed straight to the luau and arrived while dinner and entertainment were already in progress, so we likely missed some of the pre-show activities such as hula lessons and cultural demonstrations. Dinner was described as a buffet, but it was actually set up more like a series of food trucks, kiosks, or booths, where guests visited different stations to receive plated items. While this setup provides a wide variety of options, it can also lead to using multiple plates per person.

​The food​ was catered by Moani Island Bistro, which was flavorful and well-prepared. Seating was first-come, first-served for this event, ​but even though​ we were seated in the back, we still had a good view of the stage. The show itself featured engaging storytelling, Polynesian dances, and impressive production elements like lighting and visuals, giving it a polished, theatrical feel.​

Overall, the combo offers a unique way to experience both a sunset sail and luau in one evening. However, timing overlaps may cause guests to miss some activities, and those sensitive to motion may find the boat portion challenging.

Tips and suggestions

Take motion sickness pill before the cruise, and arrive early to secure a good spot on the catamaran

10/10 for this tour!
Activity Date: 2026/02/13 | Posted on: 2026/02/15

We had such an amazing experience on our Kaneohe Sandbar tour. The crew from start to finish was friendly and comforting. They made us feel right at home. Loved being able to purchase snacks and drinks on board. The snorkel experience was so intimate and way different than any other that I’ve done in Hawaii. We got one on one tips and knowledge on the sea life we were witnessing. The sandwich was delicious. I brought my two year old on this tour and she loved it and was able to experience a lot for her age group. 10/10!!!!!

Just an overall fun experience. From learning about the different cultures to the games and activities to the amazing food! Everything was planned and every worker was helpful and polite. I highly recommend doing the full day event and using it as one of your full vacation days. It was a very long day, but it was well worth it and the food buffet was like nothing I had ever seen before. The best part was the luau completely captivating and well done.

Waikiki Snorkel with Turtles Cruise with Beers & Cocktails - Ke Kai Catamaran
Very Caring Crew
Activity Date: 2025/12/29 | Posted on: 2025/12/31

Wonderful experience swimming with the turtles. But I was struggling with light headedness and nausea. The lifeguard and crew were so caring and sensitive. They encouraged me to stay out in the water as long as I felt confident but then took me back to the boat via the surf board when it was too much. I was given a ginger ale to sip on and the team frequently checked on me. Always encouraging and supportive. I never felt shamed or ridiculed. Thank you
