All Reviews for Stand Up Paddle Rental & Lessons

The crew was awesome, music awesome, had so much fun with my family tubing and playing volleyball. Highly recommend

The crew & live music and especially our little speed boat driver were all authentically kind and made our experience the best they possibly could.

It was my first time on a bumper tube. It was more thrilling and exciting than any roller coaster. I also really enjoyed chatting with the Japanese female staff member.

人生初のバンパーチューブでした。どんなジェットコースターよりもスリリングでエキサイティングでした。日本人女性のスタッフの方との談話もとても楽しかったです。

We had such a great day on the sandbar, with the easy swimming and clear water alongside fun extras the boat provides!

Someone arrived late, and I had to wait for nearly 30 minutes. The sunlight was too strong during that time, making it hard to concentrate. I wish it had started at 8 o'clock.

遅刻してきた人がいて30分近く待たされた。
時間帯的に日差しがあまりにも強く、集中できない。8時開催にしてほしい

The staff members are very cheerful, and you can tell they are trying to entertain us. They understand Japanese to some extent, so I don't think there will be any issues. It can be a bit chilly during the rainy season, so a jacket is essential.

スタッフの方達がとても陽気で、こちらを楽しませようとしてくれてるのが伝わる。
日本語もある程度伝わるので、困る事もないと思います。
雨季だと少し寒いので、上着は必須です。

Absolutely wonderful experience. Must try the banana boat ride for an opportunity to see giant sea turtles. We saw like 20. So beautiful. The music was fantastic. Thank you all so much 🌺❤️🌈

My family loved this tour. The activities we fun and well managed. Kevin was a great tour guide.

We went to Hawaii and we loved it there. Now sandbar Hawaii at another level. Everything is including paddle boards, snorkeling, canoeing and you get live music and food. This was the cherry on top of our trip don’t plan on going without making this trip.

I loved this snorkeling adventure! The live music was really entertaining, and the lunch was yummy. I really liked that the staff who did the outfitting for your snorkel gear was attentive and caring and wanted to make sure you had a good experience! I liked that there was a small tow rope strung between the main vessel and the floating "lounge" area to help guide you through the water. The variety of activities was good too, with the banana rafts and the stand-up paddleboards. There was an activity here for every level of adventurer. I kind of wished the boat was a bit smaller and more intimate but I got used to the size quickly and really ended up enjoying the experience!

We booked the Kaneohe sandbar standard package as we had our 2 year old kid travelling with us. We got to do a bit of everything swim, snorkel, kayak and paddleboard. My son enjoyed his first kayak ride. There is a good deck once u reach the sandbar where we can relax in between activities. The crew were friendly and hospitalable. We enjoyed the music onboard. I would definitely recommend the Kaneohe sandbar experience to anyone visiting Oahu !!!!

The tour was very good.

It was disappointing that the pickup time was delayed. If there is going to be a delay, I would like to be informed by email. The phone line was not reachable. I hope this can be improved.

We did this just 8 months ago and we brought the rest of the family with us this time. There was 8 of us and everyone participated in all of the activities and it didn't matter that the weather wasn't perfect, the aloha shared by this team is what made this experience wonderful. Thank you for making our Obana's day!

We had an excellent adventure on our morning trip. The crew was great and took care of every possible detail to ensure all the guests had a good experience.
The live music was an added bonus that we truly enjoyed! Highly recommend this as a great way to spend a few hours on the water.

I was worried about the weather since I participated in January during the rainy season, but it was great weather! The waves were small, and it was perfect for stand-up paddleboarding! I enjoyed Kailua Beach and Lanikai Beach so much that I felt like I didn't have enough time. The instructors and the staff were friendly and very easy to talk to. Thank you, Tomo, for teaching me so patiently!

私が参加したのは1月の雨季ということで、天気はメッチャ心配していましたが、いいお天気！波も少なくsup日和とも仰っていました！時間が足りないくらい、カイルアビーチ、ラニカイビーチ楽しませていただきました。インストラクターの方も、お店の方も気さくで、とても接しやすかったです。tomoさん、丁寧に教えてくださり、ありがとうございました！

Kaneohe Bay was an unforgettable day on the water! The crew was welcoming and friendly, the music set the perfect vibe, and there were plenty of fun water activities to enjoy. The spacious deck provided a comfortable spot to relax right at the Sandbar, and the snorkeling experience was incredible, with some of the best fish to see up close. Highly recommend!

Amazing place and nice people will definetly go back again

We had a blast at the sandbar! The boat ride there was fantastic with great music and a fun crew. Once there we got to hop on the Banana Boat w/ Captain Calvin and he really made sure we were comfortable with the speed (thumbs up for faster, shaka for same speed, and thumbs down to slow it up). In addition to that helped setup a ride back to the shuttle spot since my aunt had trouble walking that far. The staff there are the best!

We got lucky and went by some sea turtles while out there on the banana boat. They swam right beneath us!

There was also live music on the boat and it was sooo good. Great songs, great musicians and singers. Wow!

We also got to kayak around and tried the stand-up paddle board for the first time. It was amazing to be out in the ocean surrounded by the beauty of the water and green mountains. It's truly magical, and I hope it stays that way forever. We should all respect it and guard it.

This should be a "must do" when traveling to Oahu!

The water was crystal clear and riding the stand-up pedal board was such a great experience. Every staff was very kind and welcoming. Also, kudos to the two musicians on the boat. The songs they played made the experience more enjoyable.

Staff is amazing and so kind! The sandbar is so clear and beautiful, we even saw a sea turtle paddle boarding around!

Smooth boat ride to the sandbar. Lunch was enjoyable. Music was wonderful. Staff was friendly and attentive. Other than the weather which is uncontrollable, we had a wonderful time.

At the beginning of January, there are no sandbars due to the rainy season, and the water is about waist-deep. However, you can enjoy plenty of kayaking, stand-up paddleboarding, and snorkeling. We also tried the banana boat, which was quite intense. The live music on the boat was excellent, and all the staff spoke a bit of Japanese and engaged with us a lot, which made it very enjoyable.

1月初めは雨季のためサンドバーはなく、腰くらいまで水に浸かります。ですがカヤック、SUP、シュノーケリングをたっぷり楽しめます。バナナボートもやりましたが、結構激しめでした。ボートでは生演奏がとても良かったのとスタッフ全員片言の日本語でたくさん話しかけてくれ、とても楽しかったです。

The staff was super kind, activities where safe and long enough for you to enjoy your time at the destination + it’s guaranteed that you’ll see fish if you snorkel :)

We took our teenage daughters on this tour. Staff were friendly and the day went smoothly overall. I was very disappointed to see that the staff chum the waters (feed the fish) in order to make this a better snorkel experience for guests. Feeding the fish makes them more aggressive, leads to overpopulation and affect their health.
While we appreciated the live music on board and music played over speakers when in the water, the loud cheesy music on the way home was just too much (Baby Shark, Gangnum Style etc. ) This may appeal to some tourists but just created a very loud experience and took away from our enjoying the natural beauty around us.

As a non-swimmer, I enjoyed the trip as much as my family. Every crew member is wonderful, fun, and put safety as priority. Highly recommended!

The captain and crew were so great. We had such a great time. Highly recommend going on this tour!

The live music on boat was incredible! The sandbar had awesome colors. Very much recommended!

The weather was perfect, and it was the best experience! Choosing the banana boat and tubing course was the right decision. During the banana boat ride, the boat staff took us to a sea turtle spot, so they stopped the boat for us to watch the sea turtles, and the kids were thrilled.

天気にも恵まれ最高でした♪バナナボートとチューブラインのコースで正解でした。バナナボートでは途中ボートの方が海亀のポイントに連れてってくれたので、ボートを止めて海亀ウォッチをしてくれ、子供も感激してました。

The staff were bright and funny, and they were the best. The donuts we got on the boat were delicious, but the juice was just okay. The place to disembark from the boat is in 1.5m of water. It's a tour mainly focused on attractions. Swimwear is a must. The attractions were enjoyable and felt safe with the staff's supervision.

スタッフは明るく面白い人たちでサイコーでした。
船でもらったドーナツは美味しかったけど、ジュースはイマイチかも。
船から降りる場所は、1.5mの海におります。アトラクションメインのツアーです。水着は必須。アトラクションはスタッフの見守りもあって安心で楽しめました。

I attended with high expectations, but contrary to my hopes, I wasn't that impressed. There are many more beautiful beaches on the East Coast, so I think it's better to look for those. The live music on the ship was very good.

期待して参加しましたが、期待に反しそれほど感動できませんでした。東海岸にはもっときれいなビーチがたくさんありますので、それを探していった方がいいと思います。船内の音楽演奏は、とても良かったです。
