Kaneohe Sandbar Tour with Snorkel, Kayak, SUP & Live Hawaiian Music - Kaneohe Bay Ocean Sports
First Sandbar experience
Activity Date: 2022/02/23 | Posted on: 2022/03/19

The crew was so welcoming and sweet! I’ve been to Hawaii almost 10 times but this was my first time at the Sandbar. It is really nice if you also just want to enjoy the water and beautiful weather. The activities are a bonus. I lost my earring and they literally snorkeled for about 20 min and actually found it. Super cool people :) I will definitely be back, hopefully next time w family and friends.

My husband and I had a great experience on this cruise! The music was awesome and not to mention being able to enjoy water activities for a few hours. Would definitely do this again and we strongly recommend.

Perfect day
Activity Date: 2022/02/26 | Posted on: 2022/03/19

I had such a great time, got some good drinks with us and awesome entertainment with the live music covers. Lovely staff and extremely helpful.
Definitely would recommend to bring extra mixers for whatever liquor you bring in a plastic bottle. They don't allow glass and the only drink options are water and orange tang. Outside of that i had an amazing time and met some pretty nice folks.

Worth every penny!
Activity Date: 2022/03/17 | Posted on: 2022/03/19

Our family of 6 had a blast on this event! We booked the full package with banana boat and bumper tube add-on for our teens and just a standard package for mom and dad + an infant. There was plenty to do for all ages! We laughed and enjoyed watching the kids tackle the watersports. The waters were calm enough for my infant daughter to enjoy a dip. Life jackets are provided in all kinds of comfortable sizes. There was plenty of time to spare! The crew is lovely. Everyone was so kind and welcoming. The live music was very much appreciated and performed by a talented duo.

I highly recommend this event!

It was an amazing experience! The sandbar is such a unique and beautiful location making it very memorable. The staff were very attentive and made it a safe and super fun time. Lots of activities that you can do and there's enough time to do everything. I highly recommend this trip. I went with my significant other and we really enjoyed it, but we also would highly recommend going with a group of friends.

Kaneohe Sandbar Tour with Snorkel, Kayak, SUP & Live Hawaiian Music - Kaneohe Bay Ocean Sports
A perfect morning
Activity Date: 2022/03/15 | Posted on: 2022/03/17

This was exactly what I needed to do for a spring break morning after a stressful half semester. The staff were super friendly. I really appreciate that the SUP boards and kayaks were available for anyone to use at any time, as well as that we were not required to give up our kayak after any given period of time. We ended up spending most of our time floating and paddling. The reef is also great for snorkeling, with some unusual sea cucumber things I hadn't seen elsewhere in Hawaii.

Kaneohe Sandbar Tour with Snorkel, Kayak, SUP & Live Hawaiian Music - Kaneohe Bay Ocean Sports
This is perfect for kids and non-swimmers as it's shallow for miles!
Activity Date: 2022/03/11 | Posted on: 2022/03/16

This was a fun half day trip. Parking is free which is a plus. It's great for big groups, newcomer's to Hawaii and families with kids. The sand bar is shallow, so it's easier on non-swimmers. The equipment was in good condition and clean. The staff was great and very helpful. It's BYOB and food so that's a treat and you're not locked in to some random meal that you don't like. Spend the extra money for the Tube Ride, it's worth it. The entertainment is wonderful and legit! There is so much local talent in Hawaii and it was a pleasure to have see some. We did the morning boat and my teenagers loved it and it was just enough time for them to be able to get back and surf in the afternoon. I highly recommend this excursion and like any industry, tipping is always a great way to show gratitude.

A must for any vacation
Activity Date: 2022/03/12 | Posted on: 2022/03/15

My fiancée and I did the afternoon session and our experience was amazing. Even though the time it takes from the marina to the sandbar isn't too long the singing brahs were amazing. They can really sing and are truly great souls. The staff was extremely friendly and very knowledgable in all the activities that they offer. Im not a small guy and they were able to guide me and get me to be able to paddle board standing up on my first time ever trying the activity. They always made sure everyone was safe while doing all the activities they offer. I would 100% recommend visiting the sandbar during your vacation!

You should definitely book the sandbar excursion. We had a great time paddle boarding and playing volleyball. The best part was the banana boat and snorkeling as we got to see sea turtles. The staff is so nice and helpful and the music was great as well. We will definitely do this again!! Take your drinks and enjoy the best time ever!

THE BEST TIME EVER!
Activity Date: 2022/03/11 | Posted on: 2022/03/13

We were a group of 16 travel nurses. We had a blast! We booked the afternoon tour with banana boat and tube rides. We were provided with lunch upon boarding. We also brought our own coolers and snacks. There was live musicians playing who were AMAZING!!!! The ENTIRE crew was so fun and accommodating. They made sure we were taken care of. They provide you with snorkel gears, stand up paddle, kayaks and there was also a floating lounge area to chill at. We had a blast playing water volleyball too. JUST BOOK IT! You won’t regret it. Also please bring cash to tip the crew and musicians because they truly deserve it. Mahalo for everything!!!! Will come back again!

We enjoyed our morning at the Sandbar! There were 8 of us. We definitely could've stayed out there longer but we loved it! Make sure to bring snacks, dranks, hat& sunscreen! Even loved the live music, wish they played live music on the barge! I think that would be so fun! LOL definitely recommend!

Amazing time for the whole family!!
Activity Date: 2022/02/19 | Posted on: 2022/03/12

As a family of 3 young children (10, 7 and 20 months), we wanted to do at least one excursion on our trip and this was perfect for the 20 month old as she was able to swim in the sandbar! There were no issues taking the 40 minute bus and then the 10 minutes boat ride over to Kaneohe. It was very organized and clean! The staff were very professional and nice and when I emailed the company about bringing my baby’s float, they had no concerns! Kaneohe Sandbar was absolutely breathtaking and so beautiful! We even saw lots of sea turtles! We spent some time in the sandbar to swim and they even set up a volleyball net! They also come around and take pictures for you. While you’re out swimming, the other staff is preparing lunch. The food was pretty good too! Next stop was snorkeling and my husband said it was fun with the kids. They even rinse you off after you’ve finished. Definitely pack extra dry clothes as the bus gets cold - I read a review about that and it came in handy. I am definitely going to recommend this excursion to others.

Kaneohe Sandbar on Feb 11th 2022
Activity Date: 2022/02/11 | Posted on: 2022/03/05

The Crew the experience was awesome - The Aloha Vibes was there. All Crew memebers were top notch in entertainment and very nice and fun. They interacted with all the participants made us feel comfortable and enjoyable.

Activities was kool they had a VolleyBall Court, snorkling gears, kayak, Paddle board and if you wanted to get pulled by a yellow banana floater from a boat. Also, they had a barge you can go chill and sun bath. Had music playing and it was great.

Lunch was okay Ham/Turkey Sandwhich, drink and a bag of chips.
There was no alcohol on board so make sure to bring your own.

Plus that day was so beautiful and very minimal wind - 80 degree....

Overall it was awesome and will do it over and over - Love it !!!!
