Oahu
This was a very fun excursion. The staff was so fun and accommodating. There ware lots of activities to choose from to do. We had a great time!
I loved this experience. We got there early to find parking and decided to eat breakfast. My spouse took in the scenery, everything was so peaceful. The boat ride was about 7 minutes and the area was beautiful. We got to do most of the activities, ate donuts and drank juice. Would love to return and do it again.
We really enjoyed this cruise! The lunch, live music, helpful crew, and activities were all on point. Easily the best thing I’ve done on island! It was the perfect way to spend the afternoon! I wish it was longer because it was that much fun!
The trainer for paddle boarding is great! We don’t know his name. He is a very skinny guy, tan, looks like a local or asian like. He is very helpful!
This was the best excursion for my family. My kids got to snorkel, kayak, and play vball. Everyone had soooo much fun! The staff is amazing and the musician played the best oldies. I knew almost all the songs!!! It ended up being karaoke night.
Let's start with the good. Crew was fabulous. Boat was great. Live music was excellent. Variety of activities was excellent--especially the banana boat and disc events--which I highly recommend you add to your experience. Paddle boarding and kayaks were also a nice option for the family. Food/drinks was good too.
The not so good--the snorkeling was just average because we were not allowed to have much freedom to explore. They should allow a time allotment for the extra perks so more can enjoy the extra activities. The main negative was the music they played traveling back to shore--although fun for young adults and old--not too great for my 7 y/o as there was not the consideration of having music with bad language being played for her to hear and ask questions.
Still a good experience overall and would do again IF the music was at least filtered a bit.
Everything was awesome !!! The staff, the activities , the environment , live music. No complaints at all.
Loved it. Thank you !!!!
The staff were so friendly and helpful! The band is also very talented and made our time during the boat ride even more enjoyable! We added the banana boat and bumper tube and it was well worth it! Snorkeling was our favorite and we would definitely go again. The sandbar was so beautiful and so enjoyable! 10/10 recommend!!
Very friendly crew and overall a good experience. Just a bit too crowded in the boat especially while we are still in a pandemic.
The boat was clean overall and great music played on our way there and way back. Lunch was fresh and nice. Overall a good experience with the ability to choose what you wanna do. Kayaking was fun and other options to paddle board or snorkel. No sea life since the coral reefs are dead unfortunately.
Absolutely breathtaking beautiful clear water. The live band and crew were amazing. The tide was very low so we were not able to do much snorkeling here, although we did see a few different varieties of fish. This was mostly a place to enjoy the water, views, and have some beverages in the sun. A must see when visiting Oahu.
So much value. We all enjoyed this experience so much. For one price, you get to do so many activities that warrant the same price on their own. The crew and entertainment were excellent. My kids asked to come back before they even got off the boat. Mahalo!
Husband my 3 year old and i had a great time best experience ever 100% recommended
We love and really enjoyed the snorkeling. The tour guide was so nice and fun . We saw a lot of different colors of the fishes. It was so clear and shallow. A lot of activities that we could play in the beach. They gave us a lot of time to play in the beach. Worth the $ . We will come back
This was one of our most fun activities in Oahu!!! Very relaxing, amazing live music, super friendly staff and the water sports were a highlight!!! We will be back again. Ny husband lost his wallet in the ocean and one of the Captains was honest and returned it. This was such a blessing because our trip could have been ruined with no way to return home. But thanks to the crew on the boat , it stayed just as awesome as this fun day at the sandbar cruise!!!!
Was so amazing I will be bringing my whole family to this
First, the prior guidance about the location of the check-in counter was poor. I entered the address into Google, but there was no counter there. I asked a nearby fisherman, who told me it was not there but over there. However, I had a hard time finding the counter with the name of the activity organizer. Just when I was about to ask where the organizer's location was, the lady at the counter called my name, and I finally arrived.
As for the activity itself, it was different from what I expected. The snorkeling in the rough waves had very little to see underwater; aside from a sea turtle, there were only two types of fish that appeared alternately, so there were hardly any fish at all. The water was murky, and I couldn't see even a meter ahead. The water slide was only worth doing once. On the water trampoline, I couldn't really bounce; I just lay there sunbathing. It felt nice, and I ended up falling asleep, which was the most luxurious part of the experience. While I think it was good to have had a unique experience, I wouldn't recommend it.
まずチェックインカウンターの場所の事前案内が雑。住所をGoogleに入れて行ったが、そこにはカウンターは無い。近くの漁業関係者に聞いてここではなく、向こうだと言われ行くも、アクティビティ主催者の名前のあるカウンターがなかなか見つからない。たまたまここの主催者の場所はどこか聞こうとしたところ、カウンターのお姉さんが自分の名前を呼んでくれたので、ようやく辿り着きました。アクティビティ自体は期待してたのとは違い、荒波の中のシュノーケリングで、水中を除いてもウミガメはもちろん、魚も2種の魚がかわりばんこに出てくるぐらいで、ほとんどいません。水中も濁っていて、1m先も見えない状況でした。ウォーター滑り台も一回やれば十分。水上トランポリンではトランポリンできるはずもなく、ただ寝そべって日焼けごっこ。気持ちよくて寝てしまったがそれが1番贅沢でした。貴重な経験ができたのでよかったとは思いますが、おすすめはしません。
We were the biggest group that day! 23 people! We all had a great time. Thank you!!!
We really enjoyed it! All of us from our family had fun! Friendly staff to good singer on board. Will highly recommend others to avail of this activity!
Family had a blast at Sandbar. Crew was wonderful! They were very friendly and helpful. Musicians were fantastic!! Made for a wonderful experience for the whole family! I highly recommend them for your Sandbar experience!! Gotta try out the banana boat and tubing! Overall a very memorable experience!
Overall, just a really fun experience. Ridge was awesome, kind, and very encouraging. Great conversation and it was a beautiful day out to paddle board.
Loved the entertainment on the boat, lunch was amazing and the snorkeling was great
Our family enjoyed the sandbar. We went in the morning and the water on the sandbar is about 2 feet high, perfect for my 8 yr. old. We did snorkeling, paddle boat, and kayaking. There are buoys that set the limits of the sandbar so you don't go to the deep parts. The guides are everywhere and very helpful if you happen to be drifting outside of the sandbar. This is more kid-friendly than the Ko Olina snorkeling where the water is about 30 feet deep. The guides and crews on both activities are super friendly and helpful.
I had a very nice time. The music on the boat was the best part. You can bring snacks and alcohol so don't forget to bring a cooler of goodies. The snorkeling was fun but kinda boring to just paddle around in circles on a kayak. Overall, it was a very fun day in the sun.
So fun! The price is well worth all the memories! All staff were wonderful. Donuts were a huge plus. So glad we booked with them and would definitely pick this activity again on our next visit.
We went on the afternoon tour. Weather was perfect. It was cool to go to the sandbar. They feed you lunch right as you board, it was fresh and good. Pineapple was great. Music was nice and whole crew were caring and friendly. They let you bring your own masks but do not allow full face masks. I was not 100% comfortable putting my mouth on something so many others used although they do bleach them. I hate drinking salt water using that type of snorkel gear. Even though it’s not regulated by the company it was still disappointing. Also the water was 4-5 feet deep. They also insisted on babes in arms wear a life jacket and our little grandson wouldn’t tolerate the jacket although he loves water. So I would say this is not a very good choice for very little children. My daughter hardly got a chance to do anything or enjoy much of the afternoon. At least the boat was a nice refuge. Feel like I paid a lot for a sandwhich, boat ride, and dip in the ocean. I could’ve snorkeled on the beach using my own gear (which I have ) for less. The floating raft with couches was nice and I saw a few fish snorkeling after I caved and used their gear. I feel like this is kind of a tourist trap for the money. I’m spite of all that we had a fun afternoon.
It’s so beautiful and remember to do the banana boat or bumper tubes. An unforgettable experience with great live music. The water feels amazing I recommend snorkeling.
This was our first time for this excursion and our family loved it. Especially riding the banana boat. This was one of our highlights here in Hawaii. The staff were very helpful in everything.
This experience was a perfect way to end our vacation. It went above my expectations. Everything from lunch, the music, the atmosphere, & the beautiful waters of Hawai’i. Providing us with different activities was perfect and when we just wanted to relax it was nice knowing that we could relax comfortably on a lounge area or just in the clear blue waters. The amount time that was provided was a perfect amount of time . I highly recommend this company to everyone❤️ I will definitely be back for this experience again.
I was referred by a friend that went couple years back, so we decided to go since it was our first time going to Hawaii. It was so much fun and all the staff was so friendly!!
Literally the coolest thing we have ever done! We went as a big family of 16 with kids and we all enjoyed it and got out in the water.
