family day out

Reviewed by: Tracey, 2022/12/04

We where a party of 8 adults. It was such a beautiful day from the time we got on the boat the staff where very welcoming and gave us a a run done of the do's and dont's. On the way out to the sandbar we where entertained by two very talented singers. We had donuts ,water and soft drink for morning tea. only took about 15 min to arrive at the sandbar.It was such a lovely morning you could do some canoeing, paddle boarding, Volley ball, snorkeling,or just chilling on the barge.
All up we had an awesome day and would highly recommend doing it.
we would all do it again the next time we are in Hawaii.Do yourself a favour and book it next time you go to Hawaii.

My partner & I went on my birthday and it will always be a day to remember. The crew and staff were brilliant. The music was beautiful and the views just take your breath away. I highly recommend the banana boat and biscuit water rides.

Sand Bar

Reviewed by: Estela Garcia, 2022/11/19

This activity was so much fun and absolutely worth it. Purchasing was easy, directions and parking was super easy. We drove our own car from air b&b in Waikiki. Little store in parking area for last minute drink/snack purchases. We brought our own floaters. The ride to sand bar on boat was nice and smooth with live music! The time on sandbar was amazing. The views all around were so so pretty! The kayak/paddle boarding was so much fun! Def bring your own drinks and snacks. Would definitely repeat!

Amazing time with phenomenal people

Reviewed by: Candice Garcia , 2022/11/18

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❤️❤️

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!

Kaneohe bay sandbar ocean sports adventure

Reviewed by: Rupert, 2022/11/06

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.

Wet but fabulous

Reviewed by: Kerri, 2022/11/06

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

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

Reviewed by: Shelby, 2022/10/26

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!

Sandbar tour with banana boat and bumper ride

Reviewed by: Garrick, 2022/10/25

Totally awesome experience and had a ton of fun on the water. Went for the banana boat and bumper ride upgrade. Great and friendly crew! Definitely good to be aware of the tide tho. Unfortunately none of the sandbar was above the water while we were there due to high tide. Was a great experience nonetheless!

Unforgettable experience!

Reviewed by: Nat Umana, 2022/10/24

We had the most amazing experience! The crew was wonderful. Made us feel like Ohana. Kept us safe and let us do our thang. We rode the banana boat and asked the captain to flip us! So much fun. We rode the bumper tube as well, SCARY at first but so much fun. Snorkeled with my 10yr and non swimming boyfriend lol We did great! The lunch sandwich they provided was much needed! We will come back to sandbar EVERY time we visit Oahu. Mahalo!

A Must Do Excursion

Reviewed by: Jen, 2022/10/24

The sandbar snorkel cruise was a last minute decision and we're so glad we did it! We had a small group so we were able to snorkel out and see some turtles and coral reef! Such an amazing sight! The crew and musicians were very friendly and this added to the overall experience. Highly recommended!!

Really enjoy it

Reviewed by: Julice, 2022/10/23

The ride to Sandbar is very smooth, no waves, no worries on emotion sickness. My 6yr old especially enjoyed the Banana Boat and Bumper Tube rides. Highly recommend. The staff was very nice. They even helped us babysit our 2yr old while the rest of family were on the boat and tube rides. :D

The Snorkel was OK. Not many fishes though. If you are planning your trip primarily for the snorkel, it is likely better to find a snorkel specific place.

The perfect outing

Reviewed by: Tiffany, 2022/10/20

This was one of the most popular outings suggested when we researched our trip to Oahu. The online description was completely accurate and the booking was easy. The company communicated very clearly via email and text with great instructions to prepare us for a fun day. Once on the boat we were able to completely relax and enjoy ourselves! The live music was amazing, the crew was friendly and fun, and the whole experience was coordinated and organized very well! There was plenty of time on the sand bar and plenty of equipment for our family of 6 to do everything we wanted to do. I would completely recommend this outing and I would do it again!

Super fun activities - love it!

Reviewed by: Claudia , 2022/10/08

Vibe was great, music was awesome. They had live music on our trip to the location and played music while we played in the water. It was the best activity we booked on our trip. We enjoyed paddle boarding the best. But just hanging out in the middle of the ocean was so much fun. Would definitely recommend. I didn't book the extra activities and still had a great time. Don't forget to bring your reef safe sunscreen. The crew was great and very helpful.

My family enjoyed this tour. All staff are very nice and helpful. Elvin helped my 8-year old son in kayaking. The gentleman at snorkeling helped me when I couldn’t swim back to the boat.

Definitely the best bang for your buck.

Reviewed by: Christina H, 2022/10/04

Parking was easy if you got there early enough. The lunch was offered as we got on the boat, so if you miss breakfast you won't have to wait long to eat. We got to try the paddle board and chill in the middle lounge area. The tide was pretty high and the current was pushing, but we still had a great time.
