We loved the experience. Such soulful music on the boat followed by snorkeling, SUP, and kayaking. And then chilling on the floating couch. Loved it all.

Kaneohe Bay Sandbar Ocean Sports Adventure with Snorkel, Kayak, SUP & Live Music

Fun, Inviting, and Friendly!

Reviewed by: Mejia Family, 2023/07/27

When my family and I first got to the dock we were greeted by the friendly boat crew. They were very personable and caring. On the adventure, we made our way to the sandbar and were able to snorkel, paddleboard, canoe, and relax on the water deck. The sandbar was perfect to stand on and was not deep. The reef was beautiful to look at while snorkeling. My family and I paid extra for the intertube and banana boat, this experience was AWESOME!! You were asked what speed you would like the ride. We wore life jackets and we felt very safe even though this was an extreme water activity. The live music was wonderful, while the overall atmosphere was family oriented. This was our favorite excursion!! If you want a day to play in the water and have fun with the family, this is the excursion for you.

Awesome adventure

Reviewed by: David Hohrine, 2023/07/16

There was something for everyone in our group of 11 people (ranging in ages from 3 to 68). Lunch was tasty, the crew was great, and everyone found things to enjoy. Booking was easy and the area is beautiful. We even saw a sea turtle swimming with us!! We definitely recommend this for other families.

A great place for small kids and adults due to shallow water. Good side excursions included with the price such as canoeing, paddle boarding, and snorkeling, but there's some waiting time for canoeing and paddle boarding due to limited availability.

Kaneohe Bay Sandbar Ocean Sports Adventure with Snorkel, Kayak, SUP & Live Music

One of my bucket lists to do in Oahu.

Reviewed by: P. Rith, 2023/07/15

Due to the price, I was debating whether to purchase this excursion for a family of four. I bit the bullet and purchased it; let me tell you, my experiences from the beginning to the end of the trip, it was magical. Just the drive to the location was a joy in itself, engulfed with the "aw" moment, witnessing the green mountains to the curvy roads. As we arrived at the boating dock, the instruction instructed us to check in near the deli Shop under the red umbrella. We were greeted by smiles and they quickly got us onto the boat after signing the waivers. The boat ride to Kaneohe Bay was worth it-the purchase included a simple breakfast (donuts, orange Juice, and water), live music (please tip the band), and the scenery was heavenly. The best part of this excursion was seeing my family enjoying every moment in the clear water, snorkeling, kayaking, and paddle boarding. The staffs were friendly educating us about the sea animals when we were snorkeling.

Overall, one of the best experiences ever. I would definitely do this again if I were to be in Oahu.

AMAZING EXPERIENCE

Reviewed by: Teri , 2023/07/13

This was my first time to Hawaii and I took my son and out of all of our excursions this was by far the best one hands-down! Each and everyone of the crew members were so friendly and helpful and made you feel as if you were at home on their tour boat and the music was a great touch. We have never snorkeled or used a paddle board before and this adventure allowed the most beautiful perfect safe spot for our first time. I have never been in water that beautiful and if you were nervous at all some of the crew even stays in the water with you in all the areas at all times. Just book this tour you will not regret it! Thank you for providing my son and I priceless memories that we will cherish forever.

Kaneohe Bay Sandbar Ocean Sports Adventure with Snorkel, Kayak, SUP & Live Music

An Island of Fun

Reviewed by: Jane B, 2023/07/13

The afternoon on the Kaneohe Sandbar was amazing!! There were so many choices of things to do : kayaking, paddle boarding, snorkeling, sunning on the floating deck, or playing volleyball. The reef was filled with beautiful fish and the sand underfoot was smooth and soft. The crew was organized and efficient with each member per for their job effectively. But the icing on the cake was the live entertainment from two very talented musicians who played and sang as we rode out and back to the sandbar. It’s an adventure that I will book again when I return to the island!

We did the clear bottom kayak and snorkeling.
The weather on the north shore can be a little unpredictable, so keep that in mind. Steve gave us a quick lesson and we were on our way.

精神的に疲れきった朝でした

Reviewed by: ゆうなり, 2023/07/08

本当は今頃サンドバーでシュノーケリングをしてたはずなのに、指定場所にピックアップに来てもらえず、ツアー会社に連絡したその後の対応の悪さに苦労した挙句時間を費やし、すでに現地にいる他のツアー参加者に迷惑をかけたくなかったので、仕方なく参加を断念しました。
今までネット環境さえあればスマホの電話機能なんて必要ないと思っていましたが、公衆電話もなく集合場所のホテルの宿泊者でもない私にとっては、必須の機能でした。
ツアー会社の言う集合場所から離れずに電話することがまず難関で、30分待って仕方なくホテルのレセプションで公衆電話があるかどうかを尋ね、親切なレセプショニストのおかげでホテルの電話で連絡させてもらえました。
その時にアプリかなんかでタクシーを呼んで現地まで行ってと言われて、アプリをダウンロードして配車を試みるも、ネット状況が悪くて何度もエラーに。そのうち現地集合時間が迫り、泣く泣く断念することに。
断念するとの電話連絡もひと苦労し、結果JALパックのレセプションに泣きつき、電話をしてもらってキャンセル連絡完了。
電話を使えず、英語も拙い私にとっては、クタクタに疲れた2時間でした。
ツアー会社に連絡した時にタクシーの手配をしてくれれば参加できたかも、LINEで連絡できたらもっと早く気づいてもらえてピックアップに来てもらえたかも。今はいろいろ要望もありますが、私も手痛い勉強になりました。
滞在期間中、唯一サンドバーにお目にかかれる潮位だった今日、他の日にリスケが出来ず残念です。
緊急時の対処がきちんとできるかどうか、ツアー会社も参加者も考えなくてはいけませんね。

全額ご返金をさせていただきました。

Loved this Adventure. Large spacious catamaran. Love the live music. Greeted with smiles, donuts, and tang. Can’t swim? Never snorkeled? This is the place to experience these activities. Water level at the sandbar was knee high. Lots of fish to see hiding in the coral. Don’t know what you’re looking at? Ask the knowledgeable crew. Need a bit of excitement - ride the banana boat - that will wake you up! Highly recommend this adventure.

Great experience with kiddies

Reviewed by: Mari, 2023/07/04

We took our 2.5 year old toddler on this tour and it was a wonderful experience. What’s great about this tour is that once you’re out at the sandbar you can paddle board, kayak, snorkel, and/or swim, hangout at the floating deck, etc. I’m glad we had these activities because there’s not that much to do at the sandbar otherwise! I had fun paddle boarding and kayaking with my toddler (wearing a life jacket, which they provide). We were done with the activities after a while and my toddler wanted to be back on the “big boat,” which was also fine because the boat is comfortable, provides shade, and has bathrooms and changing rooms. Just remember to bring some drinks and snacks to enjoy after all the exercise!

マタニティ旅行

Reviewed by: スヌーピーLOVE, 2023/07/02

一番シンプルなプラン(オプションアクティビティなし、送迎なし)で参加しました。

当日はアラモアナショッピングセンターを7時過ぎに出発するthebusで向かい、バスの遅れもそこまでなく、8:10ごろには到着しました。
ハーバーは地元の釣り人などがメインで利用されているようです。アルコール、ソフドリ、軽食、釣具などを販売している小さな売店もありました。
船上に着替える部屋がありますが、1名ずつしか利用できないので、水着を下に着てくるのがベターだと思います。

私たちのツアーでは運良く日本人スタッフがおりました!また、外国人スタッフの中に日本語が達者な方もいました。日本語で書かれた注意文も用意されており、英語に不安がある方も安心です^ ^

妊娠29週で参加したため、旦那とシュノーケリングを少し楽しみ、あとは船上でゆっくりするだけにしましたが、他の方々はSUPやビーチバレーなど、すごくエンジョイしていました^ ^

参加の際は是非干潮・満潮時刻と睨めっこしてツアー時間帯を選ぶと良いと思います!
とても楽しかったです!

  • 船から降りてサンドバー(浅い場所)まで少し泳ぎ(歩き)ます。

  • 船上ライブ。(曲リクエストもできました)

  • ハーバーの入り口
