All Reviews for Kaneohe Sandbar, Oahu

Would recommend to everyone. Crew was very polite and friendly had a blast.

Thank you everyone.

We had such a great time with KBOS. All the crew are amazing, we love the fact that the captains were women. Had live music from extremely talented singers and they were so nice and caring. The lifeguard even saved my friend from getting stung by a Portuguese man of war!
The team deserves to go to Las Vegas for their Christmas party hint hint For the boss LOL.
Mahalo for the best time❤️❤️

It was amazing. As soon as we boarded, we received lunch, and they wrapped it for those who planned to eat later. It was almost my first time snorkeling, but they provided thorough explanations, and when I looked into the sea, there were so many fish, I was very satisfied. It was definitely a good idea to bring marine shoes; they are a must. For other activities, we didn't have to wait in line; we did them as they became available. If you plan to use the snorkeling mask again later, keep it at your seat on the boat. There was one men's restroom and two women's restrooms, which I used several times. It was helpful because I started to feel cold while in the water and needed to go to the restroom. The restrooms were quite clean. After playing for an hour and a half with breaks in between, it was enough, and we went back to the boat to change and enjoy lunch leisurely. I dislike shuttle buses, so I used Uber for both trips. It cost about $50 to $60 one way from Waikiki. The staff spoke a little Japanese, but all the safety instructions were in English, so I thought it would have been better if there was something written in Japanese for Japanese guests. This became the best memory of my trip to Hawaii.

最高でした。乗船してすぐランチを受け取るのですが、後で食べるつもりの人にはラップしてくれます。スノーケリングはほぼ初めてでしたが、説明をしっかりしてくれて、海の中をのぞくともう沢山の魚がいて大満足。マリンシューズは持って行って正解。持参必須です。他のアクティビティも順番を待つという感じではなく、空いているものからやりました。スノーケリングマスクは、後でまた使う場合は船の自分の座席に置いておく。トイレは男用1つ、女性用2つあり、何回か利用。海に入っていると寒くなってトイレに行きたくなるので助かりました。充分キレイなお手洗いでした。途中休憩しながら１時間半も遊んだらもう充分で、船に上がって着替えてゆっくりランチを食べました。送迎車が嫌いなので往復ともUberTAXIを利用。片道ワイキキから50〜60ドル。スタッフは少し日本語もできましたが、注意事項の説明とかは全部英語だったので、日本人向けに日本語で書いたものでもあったらもっと良かったと思いました。今回のハワイ旅行で一番の思い出になりました。

This tour was amazing! My husband and I had such a blast. The whole crew was super friendly and helpful. All the water sports activities that were available was a huge plus. The floating lounge was so cool. The live music was such a vibe, those musicians were top notch. Wouldn’t change a thing. Worth every penny. Mahalo!

The weather was great and I had an amazing time. The friendliness of the crew was very pleasant. I would like to use this service again next time.

お天気も良く最高に楽しかったです。クルーの皆さんのフレンドリーさが心地よい。次回も利用したいと思います。

Such an amazing experience! from beginning to end absolutely loved how the crew was very helpful and giving directions too. Loved how there was so much to do and the sandbar was absolutely beautiful forever will remember this experience with my family, also felt very safe doing the activities outside the boat the crew was always looking out for everyone. I will defiantly book this activity again when I return to Oahu highly recommend if you get the chance to book this activity.

I had made a reservation for another day, but after checking the weather forecast and seeing it was going to rain, I contacted them to switch to a morning tour that was available online, and they responded immediately. The day we went wasn't sunny either, so I think it would be perfect if the weather is nice. However, I was satisfied because I was able to enjoy stand-up paddleboarding and even saw sea turtles while snorkeling.

別日で予約をしていましたが天気予報を確認後、雨だったので急遽その日の午前中のツアーがネット空いていたので連絡したら直ぐに対応して頂きました。
行った日も晴天では無かったのでお天気が良いと最高だと思います。
しかし…supも楽しめてシュノーケリングでウミガメにも会えたので満足出来ました。

We had an amazing time. The crew was awesome, the views were amazing and the food was good too!!!

It was an amazing experience! The clarity of the ocean was wonderful, and the snorkeling was the best. I can't swim, but the captain kindly taught me how to wear a life jacket and put on the mask and snorkel. I held onto the rescue tube, and the captain pulled me along. Plus, while feeding the fish, many of them swam alongside us. I even encountered sea turtles and seals! I felt like Ariel!

You can also rent a SUP. There were floaties available for kids. There was someone on the crew who spoke Japanese, and they provided transportation to and from the hotel, so I had no issues at all. I want to go again!

最高な体験でした！海の透明度も素晴らしく最高なシュノーケリングでした。私は泳げないのですがライフジャケットを着て、マスク・シュノーケルを付けて、、と、キャプテンが丁寧に教えてくれました。レスキューチューブに捕まり、それをキャプテンが引っ張ってくれて、、おまけに餌を撒きながら泳ぐのでたくさんの魚たちが一緒に泳いでくれます。ウミガメにもアザラシにも会いました‼︎アリエルになった気分でした‼︎
SUPも借りれます。子供用に浮き輪もありました。クルーに日本語ができる方がいたり、ホテルまで送迎があったりと困ることがありませんでした。また行きたいです‼︎

The captain kindly spoke slowly, even though the guests did not understand each other's languages. Since it was a private boat, we were able to spend a fulfilling time together, ultimately becoming closer.

キャプテン、ゲストお互いの言語が分からなくても親切にゆっくりとお話ししてくださりました。
プライベートボートということもあり最終的には距離も近くなれたほど充実した時間を過ごせました。

1st the weather cooperated.

2nd the crew was great, super friendly, knowledgeable of history of the area old and current.
Professional attitude and service, felt safe and comfortable the entire trip.

3rd we saw a lot of sea turtles from the boat and saw one underwater next to the coral reef snorkeling.

A lots of fish on the reef. Warm fresh water rinse and warm beverages after 90 minute snorkeling period.

Lastly the boat was Captained very well and the mooring was pretty cool to watch. We highly recommend.

Thank you for a great day.

The ride to the port was on time and smooth
We got funny & enthusiasm tour guides
It started to get so fun as soon as we got on the boat
All the activities were fantastic. We enjoyed every moment on the cruise so time went by very fast.
The staffs made this trip amazing I believed, so thankyou so much for the great day on the bay.

This is one of the most memorable experiences that we've during our recent trip! The staff as so accommodating from the very beginning of our cruise to the end. We were in such a beautiful location to relax and just have fun and really appreciate Hawaii. There were many snacks, water and other drinks that came with our package. Another great thing is that we could bring our own alcoholic beverages. We saw at least 3 turtles and other beautiful fishes in the ocean. The lift vests were comfortable and we were guided by the staff while swimming out during snorkeling. We would do this again!

The crew was great! the music was awesome. The kids loved it and us parents were so happy with how the day went. Thoroughly recommend this trip!

I participated in this activity because I heard you could do activities in Heaven's Sea. There were a lot of participants, so we were a bit delayed in departing. On the boat, there were two singers who kept the atmosphere lively until we reached the sandbar, making it feel like a club.

After about ten minutes, we arrived at Heaven's Sea, and I was impressed by how clear and beautiful the water was. However, the water level was about chest-high, which was disappointing as it was similar to a regular sea. On the plus side, we were able to enjoy activities like stand-up paddleboarding, canoeing, and snorkeling, so we had a lot of fun playing around.

天国の海でアクティビティーもできるということでこちらに参加しました。
参加人数が多くわちゃわちゃして出発が少し遅れていました。船内では2人の歌い手がいてサンドバーに着くまで盛り上げてくれクラブみたいでした。
１０分程で天国の海に着き水は透明で綺麗で感激しました。ただ水位は胸ぐらいまであり、通常の海とかわらずで残念でした。
その分supやカヌーがシュノーケリングなどできたので沢山遊べて楽しかったです。

I highly recommend to book with this company. Everyone, from the Captain, to the crew, to the people who assist in the sign in are amazing. They already provide the equipment for most of the activities and you have the option to have a meal. They also provide water and lemonade drinks. Had a great, amazing time.

We've been to Honolulu a number of times and only found this awesome tour this visit!

Apart from the weather, wow what an amazing trip it was.

The sandbar is obviously tidal which wasn't in our favour but the water was warm and low enough where you could walk along the ocean floor to the floating barge for a sit and relax in the open.

The only thing I could suggest is that they serve drinks as well at an extra cost or even include it in the price.

Would do this tour again in a heart beat...hopefully with lots of sunshine next time

The shuttle driver was very cheerful and kind. This time, we had a private boat with a captain and an assistant who was a Japanese-speaking woman, so I was able to relax and enjoy myself.

送迎のドライバーさんがとても明るく、親切でした。
今回はプライベートボートでキャプテン、アシスタントさんも日本語の話せる女性だったのて安心して楽しく過ごす事が出来ました。

Perfect for non-swimmers. We had so much fun snorkeling and trying the SUP. Thanks Captain Bruce Team!

It was great to be able to do exactly what I wanted to do! The tour guide was cheerful and spoke in Japanese, which made it easy to understand.

自分がやりたいことをやりたいだけやれるのが良かった‼️添乗員も明るくて日本語で話してくれて分かりやすかった。

I used a plan that included transportation from the hotel in Waikiki to the site. The bus driver was kind and introduced us to good shops for souvenirs and delicious local restaurants along the way. The explanations were in English, but he mixed in a little Japanese, so I could somewhat understand the content.

During snorkeling, I was able to see swimming sea turtles multiple times, and they were very cute. I also saw many colorful fish.

I could use the SUP for free, and I was able to stand on the board and paddle. On the boat, soft drinks and snacks are provided for free, so I never had to worry about being thirsty.

ワイキキ内ホテルから現地までの送迎付きプランを利用しました。
バスのドライバーは親切で、道中、土産を購入するのにお得な店や現地の美味しいレストランの紹介をしてくれました。英語での説明ですが、少しだけ日本語を混ぜて説明してくれるので、何となく内容は伝わりました。
シュノーケルでは、泳いでいるウミガメを何度も見ることができ、とてもかわいかった。色鮮やかな魚もたくさん見ることができました。
ＳＵＰを無料で使用することができて、ボードの上に立ってこげるようになりました。
船内では、ソフトドリンクとお菓子が無料で提供されますので、喉が渇いて困るということはありません。

Fabulous scenery, excellent staff. We went Friday morning 10/28. We played with paddleboards, and floating on the sandbar. The crew than walked us out to coral water with Google, and lifevests for safety. We saw many beautiful fish and found about 3-12"turtles mostly resting in the coral reefs. It was excellent time. Highly recommend.

We had a great time with a wonderful crew of ladies! You all run a tight ship. Well organized, fun and relaxing time. Would have been fun to have a “I survived a Portuguese Man of War sting” shirt for the lady that ran into the little guy. Mahalo!

Thanks all your help special the grime and the beige were late and you guys waited

Highly recommend this tour. The crew was awesome! The sandbar was one of the coolest places ever. Beach volleyball was so much fun and the food was great. Snorkeling at the coral reef was good! We saw several turtles during the turtle watch time. The crew was very experienced Totally awesome experience! You won’t want to miss this one!

This was a very enjoyable excursion, the staff were very attentive and wanted everyone to have a great experience.

The Captin Bruce Cruise and swimming experience was amazing. All of the boat crew members had great attitudes and made this a very memorable day. The crew was always right there to help all family's feel very important and helped in make a everlasting memory for all ages.

This was my family's first trip out on the Ocean. The crew helped us find the best places to see all underwater sea life fish and coral. We got to get right up to all the Turtles as they were resting in there natural environment or help us all swimming around to make these memories of a life time. I would love to be able to come back so I can make reservations with this same group.

It was perfect. Such friendly staff. So safe and so much fun. My 1 year old and 4 year old kiddos had such a blast. We have booked through Paradise Bay 2 years because we were staying there, and this time around was so much better. Live band with amazing voices. Just a great experience. Mahalo

Whatever I say will not do the experience any justice. Jesse and Jeremiah with the music and entertainment was sublime Lifeguards were nice and very helpful. activities were beyond my expectation. Clearly well put together

We had a blast! This was the first activity we did during our trip and it did not disappoint! They served donuts, played live music, and had plenty of activities to do. Our favorite experience was the snorkeling! The reefs were so healthy and we saw lots of fish! It's BYOB and there is a store to purchase drinks and snacks before you board. Everyone was super nice and we made friends along the way! Great way to start our trip!
