Kaneohe Sandbar Tour with Snorkel, Kayak, SUP & Live Hawaiian Music - Kaneohe Bay Ocean Sports

Fun day at the sandbar

Reviewed by: Leilani

The whole staff was so friendly and was so helpful for first timers. It was high tide and we did snorkeling first, the kids loved it learning for the first time. I tried paddle boarding and it was hard for me but still fun. The kids did the banana boat and it was fast and my three year old granddaughter had to ride on the boat instead, but she still had a blast. The band played Island music and it was perfect. We were there at the sandbar for three hours and it was exhausting but still fun. We would love to come here again next year.

We had a blast. We signed up for the banana boat add on…it was so much fun. The water was clear and waist deep. We saw turtles and lots of fish. Live music is interactive and the boat provides plenty of shade for when you need a break out of the sun.

Water balloon popping 水丸かぶり

Reviewed by: ゴジラーん

The pre-lecture was quite simplified with gestures and such. However, the captain and everyone else on board were all nice guys and very reliable. We went out to sea about three times to catch some waves, and on the second time, we managed to ride a pretty big wave, which was really exciting. It lasted about 25 minutes, but based on the waves we caught, it felt like it could have gone on a bit longer.

事前のレクチャーは、ジェスチャーなどで、かなり簡略化しています。
ただ船長はじめ、一緒に乗ってくれる方々は、みなナイスガイでとても頼もしいです。
波をつかまえに、３回ほど、沖の方へいき、２回目にかなり大きな波に乗れ、かなーり盛り上がりました。
だいたい２５分くらいで、終了でしたが、乗れた波の感じで、時間はもう少し長くなるのかな？って感じです。

Be Aware If You Are On The Shorter Side

Reviewed by: Teri

This was our second time doing this sandbar tour with this company. The staff is always very nice and there are beautiful views. The first trip went really well however, this second trip was not so great.
I am aware of high and low tide times which both times were high tide, but this time the water was over my head and windy with a pretty strong current. I am 5’ 1” and it made it near impossible to do anything at all. I know the staff cannot control ocean levels but just something to keep in mind for shorter people or people with kids. I would have been better off just saving the money and walking out into the regular ocean as far as I could before it got too deep.

It's really cold, so bring a dry towel or something to wear over. とにかく冷えるので乾いたタオルか羽織るものを

Reviewed by: ひーちゃん

The banana boat can accommodate six people in two rows for two families. It was so much fun! You won't get thrown off. Due to the tides, we couldn't reach the sandy beach, but that's understandable. You don't need water shoes at all. Both stand-up paddleboarding and kayaking were enjoyable, and even though we didn't see any turtles, we were happy to see lots of fish. Staying in the water for too long can get chilly, and if you get out while still wet, it gets even colder, so having a dry towel or a dry jacket is necessary. There are cold juices or water on the boat, but you can pay for hot coffee. My daughter and I kept drinking hot water to warm ourselves up. Also, my husband almost caused a commotion when he dropped his phone, which was in a waterproof bag, but the staff found it, and we were really grateful for that. Thank you so much for your help at that time. Next time, I’d like to go when the sandy beach is visible!

バナナボートは2家族の横2列の6人乗り。めっちゃ楽しかったです。振り落とされる事はありません。潮の満ち引きなので仕方ないですが砂浜には出会えませんでした。ウォーターシューズはなくても全然大丈夫。サップもカヤックも楽しかったし、カメには出会えなかったけどたくさんの魚を見られて良かったです。海の中にずっといると冷えるし、上がっても濡れたままだと更に冷えるので、乾いたタオルか乾いた上着が必要です。船上には冷たいジュースか水ですが、お金を払えば暖かいコーヒーがあります。私と娘はお湯をひたすら飲んで身体を温めました。あと、旦那が防水袋に入れたスマホを落としてしまい、大騒ぎになりかけましたが、スタッフが見つけてくれて本当に助かりました。あの時はありがとうございました。次は砂浜が出てる時に行ってみたいですね〜

it was okay

Reviewed by: Trina

Beautiful spot, tide wasn't super low (which you can't really control) but the snorkeling was just mediocre, per my friends that did it. We were on the boat most of the time eating cup of noodles, the live music was awesome and one of the guys that took people out for the banana ride was super nice and fun to chat with. The guy handing out goggles was a bit all over the place, I stood in line twice to get my goggles and he kept giving everyone theirs as I just stood there waiting and I almost thought he was doing that on purpose as it happened 2x so I just gave up and said well I guess I'm not snorkeling today. That was a bit disappointing. I think for the price, it wasn't really worth it. There are better tours here on the island.

Reviewed by: skn.t

The staff were all smiling, kind, and spoke Japanese very well, creating a bright and reassuring atmosphere where I could enjoy myself! The light snacks, including sandwiches and chips, were delicious, and I bought some souvenirs at ABCstore. I didn't get seasick, and there was wonderful music on board, creating a happy space where all participants were smiling. The water activities were enjoyable enough even with just the free options! I also tried the bumper tube as an option, which was more intense and active than I imagined, but I managed to endure it (laughs). I almost felt like I was going to heaven, but since it was something I had longed to do, I was glad I chose the option! I was also surprised by the cleanliness of the ship! It was so much fun that the three hours flew by! If I have the chance to come to Hawaii again, I would definitely like to participate!

Our honeymoon trip to Hawaii was amazing! There were Japanese staff members who explained everything to us, and other staff spoke Japanese in a friendly manner, making our time enjoyable! We tried stand-up paddleboarding, snorkeling, and kayaking. Although there were limited numbers for stand-up paddleboarding and kayaking, people gradually got bored, so it naturally came around to our turn, which was funny. There was also a space for volleyball! The light snack donuts were tastier than I expected! I wish I had brought marine shoes for snorkeling. The shuttle bus was cold.

新婚旅行で初ハワイ！
日本人のスタッフさんもいて説明してくださり、その他のスタッフさんもカタコトで日本語を話してフレンドリーに話してくださり、楽しい時間を過ごせました！
supやシュノーケル、カヤックをしました。
supやカヤックは数に限りがあるものの、次第にみなさん飽きるので、おのずと順番が回ってきます笑
バレーボール🏐もできるスペースもありました！
軽食のドーナツも思ったより美味しかったです！シュノーケルのときは、マリンシューズとかも持って行ってたらよかったなーと。

It felt great! 気持ち良かった〜

Reviewed by: フラばあば

I watched a TV program and thought, "I want to try that!" so I gave it a go. We were a group of older members: my husband, 66 years old, myself at 61, and my cousin, 63. It wasn't difficult at all, and we had a great time. We paddled out a bit with the oars to turn around, and when a good wave came, we paddled really fast in sync with the calls. Once we caught the wave, we stopped paddling and glided on the wave at quite a speed. The sun was strong out on the ocean, but once we were riding the wave, the wind hitting our faces felt really nice and refreshing. We got to do it three times, which was amazing! If I come to Hawaii again, I will definitely do it again.

テレビ番組を観てやってみたい!と思って挑戦しました。夫66歳私61歳いとこ63歳の高齢メンバーでしたが、難しい事は無く十分楽しめました。掛け声に合わせてオールで少し沖まで漕いで方向転換し、良い波が来たら掛け声に合わせてめっちゃ早く漕いで波に乗ったら漕ぐのをやめて波の上を結構なスピードで滑ります。海の上は日差しがきついですが波に乗ってしまうと顔に当たる風がとても気持ち良く爽快でした。3回やってもらえて最高でした!ハワイに来たらまたやります。

At first, I thought canoeing was completely impossible, but by the end, it felt like the last remaining canoe was inviting us to give it a try.

Thank you for the first experience of canoeing.

It was very beautiful. とっても綺麗でした

Reviewed by: ちみたん

We participated as a couple with our child who is in the third grade. We chose a morning course in mid-June. The shallow area was indeed shallow, but for elementary school students, it was about 140 centimeters deep, so they couldn't touch the bottom at all. The shallowest part was just about reachable. The weather was cloudy with occasional sunshine, but it was very beautiful, and our child loved it. We rode together on a kayak as a group of four, sat on a paddleboard with just our child, and even let our child paddle alone while we held the rope.

The welcome food, donuts, seemed to be very delicious.

We participated in a set plan with a banana boat and an octopus boat, but the octopus boat was thrilling enough to be scary even for adults. (Next time, we probably won't participate.)

小学3.1年生の子供と夫婦とで参加。6月中旬午前中のコースを選びました。浅瀬は浅瀬でしたが、小学生は全く脚つかず深さ大体140センチ位。一番浅いところはどうにか着くかなぁといった深さ。天気は曇り時々晴れといった具合でしたが、とっても綺麗で子供も大絶賛。カヤックに4人で乗ったり、サップに子供と2人で座って乗ったり、はたまた子供のみ乗せて大人がヒモを持って子供1人でパドリングを楽しんだり。

ウェルカムフードとしてドーナッツもとてもおいしかった様子。

バナナボートとタコのボートのセットプランに参加したのですが、タコのボートは大人でも怖いくらいにスリル満点でした。(次はきっと参加しない)

We went banana boating with elementary school children, middle school students, and adults. I hesitated to add the banana boat because it increased the price, but it was the right decision. We saw a lot of sea turtles. Just when I thought I could see their heads, there were many around the boat, which was moving. It might have become my best memory in Hawaii.

We could also do various other activities, and I was able to see many fish while keeping my feet in the water during snorkeling, which was great. Since it was a morning plan, the water was very shallow, and the children could touch the bottom, which was reassuring. I was torn between this and other options, but choosing this one was the right choice.

I thought I might get seasick on the boat, but I didn't. The wind was very strong, so it might be cold afterward. The staff members were very entertaining and fun. The only downside was that the Japanese guide was a bit strict.
