The crew was helpful and energetic.I felt so comfortable during this entire excursion! To top it all off, the live performers were OUTSTANDING.

Kaneohe Sandbar Tour with Snorkel, Kayak, SUP & Live Hawaiian Music - Kaneohe Bay Ocean Sports

Excellent experience

Reviewed by: Angela B

I enjoyed every aspect of this excursion, from the moment i was picked up from the pick up spot in Waikiki, to the excursion itself, and to the return back to Waikiki. The banana tubing and regular tubing was a lot of fun, i do find myself as a snorkeling junkie, so I mostly snorkeled the entire time. I saw some amazing fish in the reef. I felt very safe all day. My friend did the kayaking and SUPing and enjoyed their time. The musicians were amazing. I would like to thank everyone for such a great experience.

Must do activity in Oahu

Reviewed by: STB

Participated with 2 adults and 2 teens. We chose all included package with banana boat and bumper boat for the teens. They enjoyed the rides very much! Snorkeling was amazing, the area was shallow with reef areas. The water was so clear, we could see many fish easily. Tried kayak and SUP and both were so fun even for us as beginners. Music was amazing, staff was super kind and welcoming. If we had more days, we wanted to do it again!

Kaneohe Sandbar Tour with Snorkel, Kayak, SUP & Live Hawaiian Music - Kaneohe Bay Ocean Sports

Best tour in Oahu

Reviewed by: STB

There are similar tours available but this is the best tour by far! We chose the morning tour. Donuts (2-3 different types), orange juice and water were provided in a boat while going to Sandbar. Probably it took about 10-15 minutes to get there. 2 staff played live music and sang variety of songs. It was beautiful and they are great singers! In the boat, there are a few bathrooms for women and I believe one bathroom for men. Life vest is available for everyone. You can bring your own beverage including alcohol. You can do some water activities or relax in the boat. Snorkeling gear is available for free, kayak and SUP are also available though you may need to wait for your turn if they are occupied. Just being in the water (we went there at high tide and the water was close to my neck and I’m 5’4”) was relaxing since the water was so warm and clear. If you have small children, you may want to choose low tide timing unless your kids are comfortable with deeper water. There was no wave (very gentle water movement). I strongly recommend this tour to everyone. This tour provides something for everyone to have fun!

Repeaters 2 summers in a row

Reviewed by: STB

This was our 2nd time. We did this tour last summer and it was so good that we came back again this summer! We’re 2 adults and 2 teens. Just like last year, this tour was the best highlight of our Hawaii trip. Tour staff are super friendly and funny and play/sing beautiful live music. We did kayak, teens did banana boat and bumpy boat. Snorkeling was awesome. The water is so clear that we could see sea creatures so close and clearly. Snorkeling gear was provided. It was so much fun and relaxing seeing the amazing ocean views. I wish the tour was longer! Felt like it ended too soon, I know that’s because we had a wonderful time. We will definitely do this tour again when we go back to Hawaii. Thank you for offering this amazing tour at reasonable price. We could make unforgettable family memories. Mahalo!!

Kaneohe Sandbar Tour with Snorkel, Kayak, SUP & Live Hawaiian Music - Kaneohe Bay Ocean Sports

Want to try it again

Reviewed by: Lena

The crew and experience was great. The organization of the trip was well done. My child often gets motion sickness and the ship was so smooth they didn't even feel a thing. The activities were fun, first time paddleboarding and we had a blast.

The musicians were wonderful and entertaining. Loved the hawaiian music along with contemporary songs.

The only thing that made it less of a 5 star, was something the crew could not control. We should have checked the timing of the tides. We were expecting to be walking on sand in the middle of the ocean, but I suspect we picked a day where it was hightide, so we never "walked" on the sand, we were swimming the entire time.

サンドバー天使の海 シュノーケリング&ウミガメウォッチクルーズ 船上のBBQグリルで焼くハンバーガーランチ付き!<午前/日本語クルー>

This is my second time participating, but... 2回目の参加ですが

Reviewed by: kaaan

Eight years ago when I participated, the weather was good, and the sandbar was at knee height, which made it very enjoyable.

The snorkeling felt like swimming in a line, and the staff was right there with us in the water, which was reassuring.

Now that my child has grown a bit, we participated again, but this time the water was at adult chest height, and my child couldn't enjoy it. The snorkeling spot was murky, and we couldn't see many fish.

Previously, the staff entered the water with us and kept an eye on us, but this time they just watched from the boat.

It was quite scary when we drifted off course due to the waves.

I participated this time because I felt safe before, but while it seems like anyone, even beginners or those who aren't good swimmers, can join, it's challenging when dealing with nature.

Personally, I think I would have skipped snorkeling today because it was quite frightening. It would have been better to have some information about the sea conditions today, like if there were more waves than usual.

There wasn't much confirmation of the number of people before and after entering the water, so I was left wondering about the safety measures in place.

I wouldn't really recommend this for people who don't have much experience in the sea.

以前(8年前に)参加した時は天候も良く、サンドバーも膝ぐらいの高さでとても楽しめました。

シュノーケルも列になって泳ぐという感じで

以前が安心して参加出来たので
今回参加したのですが

初心者だったり、泳ぎが得意じゃなくても
参加できます!という雰囲気ですが

自然相手なので難しいとは思いますが

個人的には今日はシュノーケルはやらずにいたと思います。結構怖かったので。
いつもより波があるよ今日の海の情報とかがあると
もう少し説明があると良かったと思います。

海に入る前後の
人数確認とかも特にされてなかったので
安全対策とかどうしているのかは謎ででした。


海の経験がそんなにない人にはあまりおすすめできません。。

Reviewed by: coffeelover

I planned my day starting in the morning. We gathered at Ross Dress for Less at 8 AM. There were other buses for different tours, so I got a bit confused, but I was able to board without any issues. After passing a few more stops, we rode the bus for about 30 minutes to the sandbar's boat dock.

When we arrived, we had to fill out a consent form, but there were Japanese staff there, so it was fine to do it in Japanese. The explanations were also in Japanese, allowing us to smoothly board the boat.

Inside the boat, we had assigned seats, which was reassuring.

On the boat, we could help ourselves to donuts and drinks.

At the sandbar, in addition to snorkeling, we could also enjoy boating and stand-up paddleboarding. Since it was shallow, we could relax and have fun without worry.

We had about two hours to play, so we had plenty of time to enjoy ourselves.

I recommend this experience because you can enjoy various activities for this price.

By the way, we returned to Waikiki around 12:30 PM.

朝からのプランにしました。
8時にROSS FOR LESSに集合でした。このツアー以外のバスも止まってたので、少し迷いましたが、無事乗ることができました。他にもいくつか停留場所を通り、30分くらいバスに揺られ、サンドバーの船乗り場へ。

着いたら、承諾書を書かないといけないのですが、ここでは日本の方がいたので日本語で大丈夫でした。説明も日本語で、スムーズに船に乗ることができました。

船の中では、席が決まっているので、安心でした。

船の中では、ドーナツとドリンクをセルフサービスでもらうことができました。

サンドバーでは、シュノーケリング以外に、ボートやサップもできました。足がつくところなので、安心して楽しむことができました。


遊ぶ時間も2時間はあったのでたっぷり遊べました。

この値段で、色んなことが楽しめるのでおすすめです。

ちなみにワイキキに帰ってきたら12時半ごろでした。

I made a reservation about three days before the experience. On the day of the event, I wondered why there were so few people, and it turned out that there was no beach visible at all. The water was cold, and after snorkeling, I quickly returned to the boat. The high encounter rate with sea turtles was fantastic.

Swimming with the honu was amazing! ホヌと泳げて最高でした

Reviewed by: ホヌ大好き

As we sailed, we suddenly came across a sandy shallow area offshore. SUP was fun there, but moving to a slightly deeper spot for snorkeling was the best! I was moved to see tropical fish and sea turtles swimming right next to me.

Actually, I had a bit of a trauma from almost drowning while snorkeling in the past, but the captain practiced with me by holding my hand beforehand, and the staff members watched over me closely, which made me feel safe while swimming.

They also provided warm drinks on the boat, which was very nice for my slightly chilled body.

船を走らせて行くと、沖の方に突如現れた砂浜の浅瀬。そこでのSUPも楽しかったですが、その後少し深いところに移動してのシュノーケリングが最高!自分のすぐ近くを熱帯魚やホヌが泳いでいく姿を見ることができて感動しました。
実は昔シュノーケリングで溺れかけたことがありちょっとトラウマがあったのですが、事前にキャプテンが手を持って練習してくれたこと、スタッフの方々がすぐそばで複数で見守ってくださったことで安心して泳げました。
船上の飲み物も温かいものを用意してくださり、少し冷えた身体にはとても嬉しかったです。

It was fun. 楽しかったです

Reviewed by: かたな

We arrived around 8:20 since we rented a car. We checked in right away at the spot with the red umbrella. It went smoothly without any issues.

I understand some English, but I felt reassured as a Japanese female guide explained everything carefully before we boarded the boat.

All the staff were very kind, and we had a great time. We played with the SUP and the boat the whole time. The person in charge of SUP was local but could speak quite a bit of Japanese, which was very helpful. (It was amusing Japanese.)

On the boat, there was water and orange juice available. While the website and reviews mentioned snacks like chips, we only had donuts during our visit. Unfortunately, they ran out by the time we returned, which was disappointing. I hope they consider having more variety and quantity of snacks. It seems inconsistent from day to day.

It's advisable to bring marine shoes, towels, hats, and rash guards since there's no shade in the water. There was only one changing area, so there was quite a line. If you dislike waiting, it's better to come back a bit earlier.

On the way back, coincidentally, a couple of musicians participating in the tour sang for us. The local staff seemed excited, so they must be famous musicians. I wonder who they are? Their child also sang along, and it was incredibly cute. The atmosphere on the boat became very warm and pleasant.

Most of the participants were Japanese, but I didn't confirm this properly, and it seemed like they didn't tip much, which made me feel a bit sorry for the staff.

Overall, I was very satisfied. The children were happy too. Thank you very much.

レンタカーでしたので、8:20頃到着。
着いてすぐに赤いパラソルのとこでチェックイン。問題なくスムーズにできました。
英語はある程度わかりますが、船に乗る前に女性の日本人ガイドが丁寧に説明してくれましたので安心しました。

スタッフはみんな優しい方ばかりで楽しかったです。
我々はずっとSUPとボートで遊んでました。
SUP担当の方は、現地の方ですが日本語をかなり話すことができサポートもあり大変良かったです。(おもしろ日本語です)

船内は水、オレンジジュースがありました。軽食はホームページや口コミではチップス等あるようでしたが、我々のときはドーナツのみ。数に限りがあったので帰りには無くなっていたのが残念です。軽食の数や種類をもう少し考えてほしいかな。日によって違うのはどうかと。。

持って行った方が良いのは、マリンシューズ、タオル、帽子とラッシュガード。海の中なので日よけがないので。
着替えるところが1か所のみなので、だいぶ並んでました。待つのが嫌な人は、少し早めにあがることですね。

帰りに、たまたま?ツアーに参加していたミュージシャン夫婦が歌ってくれました。現地スタッフは興奮していたので有名なミュージシャンのようです。誰なんでしょう?夫婦の子供も一緒に歌っていて、すごく可愛かったです。船内がとても和みました。

参加者の多くが日本人でしたが、ちゃんとは確認してませんが、あまりチップを払ってなかったようだったので、スタッフさんに少し申し訳ない気持ちになりました。

全体的にはすごく満足。子供たちも喜んでました。ありがとうございました。

It was my first time out at the Kaneohe Sandbar on my fourth trip to Oahu.
I've heard about it before, never had a chance. It was everything I expected and beyond. The crew was very friendly. It has to be the best activity I've ever done in Oahu!!

Heavenly Sea 天国の海

Reviewed by: sup

The water level was higher than I expected, and I couldn't find any sandy beaches, but I was able to enjoy snorkeling as a result.

Also, the rental stand-up paddleboards (SUP) were very popular, so if you don't go early, you'll have to wait a long time.

思ってたより水位が高く、砂浜には出会えませんでしたがその分シュノーケリングが堪能できました。

また、レンタルできるSUPはとても人気だったため、早く行かないと長い時間待つことになります。

It started with a live performance on the boat, followed by bumper tubes and banana boat rides, and then snorkeling, which was full of fun! We even encountered a sea turtle (^^) And finally, we indulged in the live performance once again... I sincerely pray for the reconstruction of Maui.

船上ライブに始まり、バンパーチューブ&バナナボートその後シュノーケリングと楽しさ満載でした!
ウミガメにも遭遇して(^^)
そして最後に再びライブに酔いしれ…
マウイ島の再建を心よりお祈りいたします。

Reviewed by: Marfy

The lunch was delicious, and the staff was friendly. However, whether the sandbar appears depends on the tide, so it's best to check the tide schedule in advance. Since this can be somewhat predicted, I feel that the tour company should provide some guidance on this. If they don't, it's reasonable to think that the chances of the sandbar appearing are low.

ランチは美味しく、スタッフもフレンドリーです。ただ、サンドバーが現れるかどうかは潮位次第なので、あらかじめ満ち引きを確認された方が良いです。ある程度は予想できる事なのでツアー会社が目安を伝えるべきな気もしますが、それをしないと言うことは、サンドバーが現れるかタイミングは少ないと考えた方が良いでしょう。

I had 2 teenage granddaughters with me. They tried paddle boarding, snorkeling, and other. I just walked around the sand bar and sat in the floating barge and talked to many others. For me it was very relaxing. And the girls loved it. They met many new friends.

The sandbar was in the ocean, but the weather was great, the scenery was beautiful, and I had a lot of fun! The guide was wonderful, and the hamburger was delicious. As mentioned in everyone's reviews, it's recommended to bring extra towels and a jacket since it can get cold!

サンドバーは海の中だったけど、それでもとても天気も良く景色も良く楽しかったです!ガイドさんも素敵でハンバーガーも美味しかったです。
みなさんの口コミ同様、寒くなるのでタオルや上着は多めに用意するのがおすすめです!

Thank you for allowing me to experience snorkeling despite my lack of confidence in swimming. I was moved by the sea turtles and various fish that I could see up close. Above all, I felt reassured to have staff who spoke Japanese. It's just a shame that the weather wasn't good.

泳ぎに自信がない私をシュノーケル体験させていただきありがとうございました。すぐそばで見れた海亀やさまざまな魚にも感動。何より日本語が話せるスタッフがおられ安心しました
