So much fun! Our family loved this adventure. Then crew was great and we caught at least 6 waves!

Aloha, Diana! Mahalo for your generous 5 star rating! Glad that you have mentioned that you caught 6 waves. It is a benefit of "Canoe Charter" for one-hour instead of signing up for "Canoe Surfing" which guarantees 3 waves and it may take anywhere from 15 minutes to 30 minutes, depending on the condition. We strongly recommend that all guests would sign up for the "Charter" as you did. Thank you again!

We had a wonderful experience! Knowledgeable and friendly staff guided us on how to use the paddle boards and kayaks. Our safety was their foremost concern. Our entire group had so much fun and were able to try all the activities they offered. My family and I highly recommend this amazing experience!

Kaneohe Sandbar Tour with Snorkel, Kayak, SUP & Live Hawaiian Music - Kaneohe Bay Ocean Sports
Best excursion!
Activity Date: 2022/03/05 | Posted on: 2022/04/01

This was the highlight of our family trip. Love how there were so many activities not just for adults but for kids as well. We bought two separate packages for our families, and definitely you should get the all inclusive package it comes with bumper tube and the banana boat and that was so much fun. Half the family that didn’t get the all inclusive missed out on that. Also, they have a changing room so you can changed into your swimwear when you get there as well. You’re allowed to bring your own drinks/ alcohol, food and snacks on the boat. So much activities and there’s a lounge area to hangout as well. We definitely recommend this excursion to everyone. It will not disappoint and also all the staffs are super friendly and welcoming.

Amazing staff, amazing day!
Activity Date: 2022/03/30 | Posted on: 2022/04/01

This was an epic experience from start to finish. These guys work so hard to make sure everyone is having a good time—from the musicians to the guys on the water, it was all so perfectly crafted. The sandbar is safe and warm, the activities are all so fun, the mountains in the distance are the perfect backdrop, and the music is so good. Mahalo for such a memorable experience that our family will treasure forever. (And special thanks to the staff who helped me find my phone in the ocean when it fell out of my pocket on the SUP.) I will recommend this to anyone coming to Oahu.

Great Kayak Excursion!
Activity Date: 2022/03/19 | Posted on: 2022/03/30

My sister and I did this kayak excursion and it was amazing! Staff was nice and very helpful. Views from off the coast were amazing and we were able to choose our route/destinations. We actually chose to skip the main sandbar and headed to smaller, completely empty of other people sandbars that offered great snorkeling views!

Highlight of our family trip
Activity Date: 2022/03/05 | Posted on: 2022/03/28

Best excursion, hands down so much fun. Get the 8 hours and make sure to get the All Inclusive package it’s definitely worth it. We only got 4 hours but the 4 hours went by so quick and we wished we would have gotten 8 hours instead. I love how there were alot of different activities. You can bring your own coolers, drinks and food onto the boat even though they do offer lunch with the package. All the staffs were super nice and friendly really made it worth while. We definitely will be returning in the future with our friends and families.

Great experience with a GREAT crew.
Activity Date: 2022/03/26 | Posted on: 2022/03/28

I didn’t know what to expect, but this tour was extremely worth it. We saw some lively groups of people on the same boat, but once you get to the sandbar, it was an amazing experience. The crew is amazing. Every single person in the crew was friendly, personable, and seem to enjoy their job! 10/10.

Once you get to the sandbar, they have crew members everywhere to make sure you have a great experience doing whatever you want there.

This tour out to the Kaneohe sandbar is great for ANYONE and EVERYONE! Well worth the trip!

The music was just super. The time at the sand bar was full of fun and relaxing. Be sure to bring extra drinks and snacks if you go. Snorkeling was tons of fun. Highly recommend this for people with school-aged children.

It's been three years since my last trip to Hawaii. I chose this opportunity to enjoy Hawaii with my 73-year-old parents! It was easy and accessible! Thanks to the strong winds, I was able to catch some great waves, making it an incredibly fun experience!

It certainly can be difficult paddling in ocean conditions, but definitely worth it for how beautiful it is, and hopefully a fun adventure and a good workout.

Sandbar play
Activity Date: 2022/03/19 | Posted on: 2022/03/23

Nice way to spend a few hours out in the middle of the bay, on a sandbar.
Boat docks right up to the sandbar, and you are out to play in the water.
Snorkeling was ok, but there are cayaks, paddle boards to try, sandbar volleyball, and banana boat rides to enjoy.
Unique experience that offers something for most.
We had a family of 5 and we enjoyed trying new things and just soaking the fun and AMAZING scenery of the windward side of Oahu.
Give it a go.
We wnt on the morning run, leaving most of rhe rest of thedsy to do something else.

It was fun but didn’t see a sandbar
Activity Date: 2022/03/19 | Posted on: 2022/03/21

Didn’t have great weather so we didn’t see the sun nor did the water look that super nice shade of blue. Also didn’t see the sandbar??? They said it was high tide so was kind of just like being on the ocean. They food was a a croissant sandwich that was probably purchased at the grocery store that day and they ran out of salad, I’m glad I brought snacks because I was still pretty hungry after. Band was great but we only hear them on the 15 minute boat ride out and back. Overall fun day though would recommend!

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.

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.

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!

Things to Do in Oahu in 2026 – Tours & Activities | HawaiiActivities.com
Sea kayaking is the best way to visit the small islets located just off the coast of Oahu, such as Chinaman's Hat or the Mokes. These kayaks are wider and more stable than watercraft made for river paddling, making them easier to use for beginners, even in tandem—just push off from the beach, get in, and paddle out to your heart's destination! Looking for something different? Try a glass-bottom kayak to get a good look at the local sea life, or paddle a Hawaiian-style outrigger canoe!
