Reviewed by: Wyatt M, 2015/06/01

This was AWESOME! Great day on the bay with a really fun crew. Volleyball on the sandbar, BBQ, music and then snorkeking on the reef - AFTER turtle watching! Cant say enough good things. Our second cruise with Captain Bobs - would definitely do it again.

Our entire family loved this day cruise. The crew on the boat were all very knowledgeable and the sandbar, turtle bay and reef were all some of the coolest sights we saw on Oahu. Hope you get Jenner on your boat, he's the best! He went out snorkeling on the reef with my husband and showed him all kinds of cool stuff!

best tour in Hawaii

Reviewed by: agnes , 2015/05/03

This tour was fantastic. Our tour guide Jenner was an on board comedian who entertained us throughout the trip. The beach volleyball, practice snorkling, bbq lunch, beer, hot chocolate, wonderful staff and turtle watching was all incredible. We also got taken to a beautiful reef full of coral and coloured fish. Highly reccommended to anyone from non swimmers to couples to families with young children. Will definitely come here again.

lots of fun!

Reviewed by: Mike, 2015/04/12

Did together with my son and had a blast. Make sure you are one of the first into the ocean when you start the snorkeling since the sea turtles will be scared away once the crowd hits. Managed to be third in and took 4K video of a huge turtle on the GoPro.

Thank you very much for posting these photos and the link to the video! It is great that you were able to see a Hawaiian Honu (Green Sea Turtle) and the video is fantastic.

Reviewed by: CarolS, 2015/04/08

We had a fabulous time! The setting is largely responsible for this, but the people made it extra special. I liked that they had a separate English speaking catamaran. The staff on board were super friendly and very informative. Hamburgers were excellent. Ukelele entertainment was so nice and really added to the atmosphere. Thanks, Jenner! Sandbar was picturesque with the water oh, so warm! We saw LOTS of sea turtles. Snorkeling was great too. View of the coastline was amazing! Caution to the elderly: there is no air conditioning and bathrooms are difficult to access.

乗るなら英語船に

Reviewed by: ネコママ, 2015/03/26

日本語ガイドがいる日本船と 英語のみの英語船とがありました。
私たち家族は英語船へ、母と友人は日本語船へ乗船。
日本人に人気のサンドバーだけあって 日本船は満員でした。
それに比べて英語船は (同じ大きさですが)ゆったりのんびり。
この差が大きく出たのは ランチ時です。
ずーっと並んでいる日本人を横目に ランチのお代わりをする英語船。
亀何匹見れた?って友人に聞いたら 3匹も見れたよ~ と返事。
そっちは何匹?と聞かれ 30匹以上見れた と返事するのが申し訳ない位。
日本人ガイドさんとは サンドバーに上陸したときに会えるので、
特に英語で困らなければ 英語船への乗船をお勧めします。
元々乗組員は全員英語 ジョークも英語ですので、わからない方にはわかりません。
シュノーケリングを楽しんで 亀を見るだけなら
英語がわからなくても大丈夫です。
ただ海の透明度は メキシコのカンクンなどに比べるとはるかに落ちますが、
こんなに一杯魚いるんだ~ と感激しました。
初シュノーケリングではまりました。 
(翌年はメキシコでシュノーケリングするくらいはまりました)

  • ランチはアメリカンなハンバーガー

  • 魚 さかな サカナ 魚え~

  • さんご礁とのコラボ

  • 亀さん2匹 見えますか?

This tour was just unbelievable! We had so much fun playing beach volleyball on the sandbar, watching turtles, and best of all the snorkeling. Great snorkeling spot to see lots of fishes and beautiful corals. My niece got to see three turtles up close! The crews were really fun to hang out with.

Awesome tour

Reviewed by: HHyver, 2014/11/01

i went on the tour with my 2 and 4 year old kids and my mother, my sister, and aunt. I was little worried because our group age was ranging from 2-65 year old. But we all had a wonderful time and this became one of the best memories we have.
The tour was well organized and the boat is new and clean and lunch was pretty good. It could be little cold depending on the weather, but overall it was a great tour! I will definitely recommend it to my friends!

SO MUCH FUN

Reviewed by: Angie, 2014/08/04

What can I say except perfect-starting from the bus picking us up-Jenner was funny and made it like a tour of that part of the Island. The boat crew were all great-quick to help you, offer you stuff, teach you about the boat, the island and the tour. Lunch was great-sandbar was so cool-saw a couple jellies-did not play volleyball but loved watching it. Then we saw at least 10 sea turtles-and a manta-all to end up at the reef-saw a couple sea turtles while in the water and so many fish-it was amazing. I WILL do this again if we return to Oahu.

Trip was great

Reviewed by: Spudley, 2014/06/22

We really enjoyed visiting the sandbar and the coral reef--the coral was amazing and there were many tropical fish around, as well as several green turtles for those who got off the boat before everyone else. Turtle sightings around the area where they were supposed to be were somewhat disappointing. We were pleasantly surprised by the grilled cheeseburgers for lunch and unpleasantly surprised by having to pay for beers--for what we paid for the trip, a beer or two for free should have been provided

So Awesome!

Reviewed by: Cat, 2014/04/20

This cruise exceeded our expectations. We thought we were hanging on the sandbar for a few hours having lunch and playing volleyball, but that was only the first part! We got to see sea turtles AND snorkel in the ocean by a reef. It was such an awesome deal for the price. I would highly recommend it; not to mention the crew was super friendly/helpful/accomodating.

Reviewed by: Jackie, 2014/04/01

Despite the cloudy and Rainy conditions the staff made it an excellent and enjoyable experience! The sandbar volleyball was fun! The only critique I would have is to clean the bathrooms more regularly as they were backed up and it made the whole inside cabin smell.
