All Reviews for Private Boat Charters

The sea was beautiful, and I saw a lot of fish. It was shallow, so the distance to the coral was close. There are various activities included, so you can really enjoy yourself.

浅いので珊瑚との距離が近かったです。
アクティビティが色々ついているのでしっかり楽しめます

The sea was crystal clear and there were lots of fish!
I had a great time with SUP and canoeing.
It was nice to have snacks and Hawaiian music as well.
The bumper tube ride was intense and really fun.

バンパーチューブが激しくてとても楽しかったです。

Great trip and highly recommended. The crew and live music were great and the activities included (paddle board, kayak, snorkel, volleyball) kept me and my wife busy during our time at the sandbar. We also saw live coral and a ton of fish as well as an octopus hiding near the anchor. Definitely a tour anyone should consider if they haven't visited the sandbar before. Having the boat also allowed us to avoid the sun and stay hydrated after the activities, sometime we wouldn't have been able to do if we had kayaked over from the harbor on our own.

The tour was absolutely amazing, the experience was so fun. I suggested my family and friends to visit hawaii and book the Kaneohe sand bar!y boyfriend and I had so much fun and the staffs were so friendly and helpful and so patient with everyone! The bay was so beautiful and calm, the water so clear and clean, we felt super safe while being there. We definitely enjoyed the water activities that was included in the package, I will definitely return and re book with you guys. We had a blast!

Beautiful ocean and amazing environment. The performers were great in the tunes and songs they played as well as their positive atmosphere!! the activities available are plenty and so much fun!

We booked the all inclusive package and our salon team loved every min! The crew was fantastic and it was an unforgettable experience! Totally worth every penny!

Kaneohe ocean sports at the sandbar was amazing! We started with either glazed or chocolate donuts with lemonade. When we got to the sandbar they had a variety of activities including kayaking, stand up paddle boarding, volleyball and snorkeling. We loved the snorkeling! They took us to an area of the sandbar that was still shallow enough to stand but had plenty of coral to swim around and explore. Staff was friendly and constantly kept watch over the participants, making this a safe and enjoyable environment. Overall would definitely recommend especially for families

We had a great afternoon on the boat. Took a seven and two year old out with us to see the whales and the captain was very accommodating to both of them. Once we got the area where the whales were we saw a couple different pairs breach multiple times and certainly didn't need binoculars to see them. On our way back to the harbor a few bottle nosed dolphins decided to swim out front of the boat and in the wake for about 10 minutes which was every bit as cool as seeing the whales.

I'd highly recommend Aloha Kona Tours.

It was so much fun for everyone and there was so many things to do! We had a blast and will definitely be back to do it again! The crew, captains and musicians were all awesome and made the excursion awesome! Thank you!!!

Staff were excellent and I would highly recommend that lunch excursion. We upgraded for the banana boat ride for our granddaughters when checking in. We were offered to ride in the boat so that we could get videos of the girls on the ride.
Water was shallow and bit difficult to snorkel.
Parking is at a premium and I had to wait in the lot until someone pulled out.

I highly recommend visiting this place, incredibly beautiful views with emerald blue water. The service is perfect! Will definitely come back again.

Love:
- beverage and donuts onboard
- live music —> huge plus
- lots of equipment and activities
- staff are amazing! Very friendly and helpful
- love how you are almost guaranteed to see the corals and fish — great exp

What can be improved:
- the area is very limiting, so you can’t go too far with the kayak or SUP

The crew was great! The entertainers were very good. Our family had a very nice time but were disappointed with the snorkeling. Very limited area with not many fish to see. It was a nice afternoon overall.

Very well organized
Good directions
Great music
Had a great time
Will recommend to friends

The captain and crew are so nice
The boat is very clean and comfy!

the experience was really good.
We got to see bunch of dolphins and whales breaching really close to.

Thank you so much!

Had a great time onboard this ship as we went over to the sandbar. Super family friendly, music was great, and the staff on board the ship were incredibly helpful. Would recommend for anyone wanting to headout out to the sandbar for a variety of ocean activities!

This tour exceeded all expectations! The crew was outstanding along with the transport accommodations from hotel to the boat. The musicians aboard were nothing short of amazing. You will leave this tour with seeing some of the most beautiful landscape ever. The equipment was top notch along with a great beach experience with snorkeling, kayaks and volleyball. I have been to Hawaii numerous times before and this excursion tops the rest! Mahalo!

All I can say, this group is awesome. We had the sandbar adventure last January 4, 2023. Despite the weather didn’t cooperate, they still made sure that we have a good time. Supposedly it’s a big group, but because it’s raining that day, some parties cancelled their trip while we just want to get over it and don’t want to be back the next day. It turned out to be an awesome adventure for us. My kids still did their banana boat ride and bumpers as well as paddle boarding and snorkeling. And my daughter even had a chance to have duet with my HERO!!! (It’s a long story).
I’m so thankful with them coz my kids really enjoyed this adventure. We all had a good time.

Great experience! Ship staff were so patient. Would highly recommend!

The crew is so friendly and willing to work with everyone on the boat. Go out of their way to make you feel comfortable on the water and experience all of the activities they have to offer.

Beautiful scenery all around you and being on the sandbar was so cool. The tube and banana boat rides were a blast and the jet boat operator is a stand up dude

It was stress free and full of fun. Everything was prepared including snorkeling gears, paddles, kayaks, etc. There was even a floating lounge. We saw a lot of tropical fish and coral. Crew members were very nice and enjoyed what they do. Will recommend 100%!

Everything was very organized and the crew is very friendly! We had lots of fun snorkeling and swimming. The sand bar is incredibly beautiful! It’s one of the most beautiful places I’ve ever seen! I definitely want to do it again! The only thing I recommend is when you buy the tour don’t forget to add transportation because it is not easy to get a taxi or Uber there.

Absolutely a “must do”. The staff was amazing and friendly and we loved the music on the boat along with the activities provided (snorkeling, paddle boarding, kayaks). It was so amazing to be on a shallow beach in the middle of the ocean!

We had an excellent time.. We were looking for a casual fun experience for Christmas evening and this trip delivered. This is my 6th time in Maui and have participated on many excursions and this is on the top of my list. Crew was fabulous and attentive. Captain was experienced and knowledgeable. Felt safe the entire time. The cost was appropriate for what we received...and as a reminder, always tip the crew

As everyone else, we wanted to snorkel at Hanauma Bay during our trip to Hawaii. However, the tickets sell within 1 minute and by the time you go to pay, there are no tickets left!!!
So I started looking for other snorkeling locations and discovered this package at Kaneohe sand bar. It had great reviews and they were all true.
The boat was absolutely clean, then crew was amicable and extremely courteous, and the musicians were phenomenal. Really. It was sawesome. Once you hit the sand bar, we went snorkeling, then kayaking and paddle boarding.
The most significant moment was when we were talking to Kai-ia, a very friendly employee that told us the secrets of the locals, and made our experience even richer.
We will definitely book this again in our next trip to Hawaii.
And you should do it too!!!

It's December, so it can't be helped. There are no Japanese staff, but it’s not a problem. It's a permanent two-tap setup, and it's an activity that beer lovers will be satisfied with.

12月ですし、仕方ありません。
日本語スタッフは居ませんが、困ることはなし。
2タップ常設の、ビール好きにも、満足のいく
アクティビティです。

Our family of 4 thoroughly enjoyed our time. We snorkeled and paddle boarded and just relaxed on the floating lounge. The live music was fantastic. The entire staff was super friendly and helpful. The lunch was delicious and fresh and the constant flow of water and lemonade nice addition. I would definitely do it again.

Thanksgiving in November was windy and the waves were strong, making it very cold!
However, the boat didn't sway, and the staff's service was excellent.
I had a great time!

11月サンクスギビングは風と波があって、とても寒かった！
でも船は揺れないし、スタッフのサービスも満点。
とても楽しませて頂きました！

It’s cool and all, just not much to do out there. Basically paying to swim 10 minutes off the beach. Not worth the money.

I couldn't see it, but I felt the beautiful sea and the pleasant sea breeze, so I guess it was good!

見ることはできなかったけど、綺麗な海と潮風を気持ち良く感じることはできたので良かったかなと言う感じ！
