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

The best experience and crew

Reviewed by: Silviya

Everything was excellent; so much to do and see for 3hrs. Live music while you paddle boarding was magical. The crew was terrific! They teach you how to snorkel, paddleboard and kayak. Pretty good deal. Highly recommend!!!

North Shore tour with Calvin

Reviewed by: Carol

It’s a great experience visiting the North Shore with Calvin! He’s funny and created a relaxing environment for us!
I would recommend a tour with Uncle Calvin who takes good care of folks in the tour and gave many good advices on where to get good food in town.

So much fun! And the crew was fantastic!!!

Reviewed by: Esther

My friends and I did the Kaneohe bay sandbar in the afternoon since it included a lunch box, and it turned out amazing. We did snorkel, kayaking, paddle boarding. It was such a good time! One of the crew members even helped one of my friends who didn’t knew how to swim. They kept us safe all the time if we were to leave safety area.

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

Fantastic excursion!

Reviewed by: Geoff

The entire experience was fantastic from start to finish! The land crew was so helpful trying to get us all onboard safely and efficiently. Once onboard, the crew and entertainment was beyond anything we could have expected. They were friendly, engaging and so welcome! At one point, they took us out on a boat to a heart-shaped reef so that we could leave flower petals in honor of the loss of our mother. It was just the best time and we highly recommend this booking for anyone wanting to go out to the sand bar to have fun, be very well taken care of and create a day of memories that will last a lifetime.

I'm very satisfied with the many activities available! 沢山のアクテビティができて満足!

Reviewed by: まみむ

On the boat to Sandbar, I was able to enjoy donuts and live music, making the travel time enjoyable! I was satisfied with the many activities I could experience! The staff was very kind and attentive, checking if there was anything I didn't understand in their explanations and occasionally providing explanations in Japanese. However, there were no lockers, so be careful with your valuables. I would be very satisfied if the price were a bit lower!

サンドバーに行く船ではドーナツが食べられたり生演奏が聞けたりと、移動時間も楽しく過ごせました!沢山のアクテビティが体験できて満足です!スタッフの方が、説明で分からなかったことはないかと色々気にしてくれたり所々日本語で説明してくれるなどとっても親切で優しかったです!ロッカーなどは無かったので貴重品の管理には注意です。もう少し金額が安ければ大変満足です!

Kaneohe Bay Kayak & Snorkel Self-Guided Tour [Tour Not Available]

Amazing experience!

Reviewed by: Dara

I absolutely enjoyed the experience. I wasn't able to see too many sea life, however, that didn't take away from the overall fun at all. I personally have a mild fear of the deep ocean, so going too far out into sea in a kayak frightens me. But it would be a miss opportunity for me to not try this at least once while on vacation. My only criticism is that the kayaking zone is a little confusing to figure out, so I felt it was too mixed up with the commercial zone and the military zone. The zone marker was hard to figure out so my group just follow other groups instead.

Reply from activity provider

Aloha Dara! Thank you so much for joining us for a kayak and snorkel adventure! Thank you also for taking the time to leave such an awesome review for us. We really appreciate that. I am very glad to hear it sounds like you had a great time kayaking with us and conquered your fears a little bit! That's great. I know it is a big bay and without a lot of markings or anything, we do our best with the map, but sometimes it is hard to figure out. Thank you so much again, we hope to see you again soon! Mahalo!

It's nice weather, so let's take it easy! いいお天気で、のんびりと!

Reviewed by: ゴルフパパ

I had experience with boat fishing in Japan, so I joined casually. We used a rig with frozen squid as bait. I caught a few flatfish, but the weather was nice, and the view of Waikiki was amazing. The staff cleaned the fish for us, put them on ice, and we could take them home. It was a relaxed and enjoyable experience.

 日本での舟釣り経験はありましたので、気軽に参加しました。
胴付きで、エサは、冷凍イカでした。
釣果は、カワハギ数匹でしたが、天気もよく、ワイキキの眺めは、最高でした。
釣れた魚は、スタッフが、捌いてくれて、氷に入れてくれて、持って帰れます。気楽に楽しめます。

Kaneohe Bay Kayak & Snorkel Self-Guided Tour [Tour Not Available]

Unforgettable experience

Reviewed by: Shiela

I am impressed by how organized the entire check-in process was - after checking in, we were directed to receive instructions from one of the workers before heading down to get our gear and get launched in the water.

The day of our activity was very windy, so the workers made sure we understood all the landmarks, dos, and don'ts. It was my first time kayaking in the middle of the ocean. And even though I was scared, I felt safe knowing everyone was an expert with what they were doing.

We saw a big turtle while paddling back to the shore. What an experience! I definitely recommend to book your activities through Veltra.

We originally booked a self-guided kayaking trip to the sandbar with another company but decided to switch to the cruise last minute. Best decision ever! We had a blast with the activities and the musicians did a fantastic job keeping everyone excited. With a pregnant family member we felt safe snorkeling with a very responsible lifeguard watching us. Every crew member had a cheerful sprit which definitely was contagious. Kudos to the crew and we will be coming back next time we visit Oahu. Mahalo.

our rental day provided anything we could have possibly wanted for our entire beach day. we used the kayaks and a cooler first and had a blast going out to the island. we then borrowed boogie boards and the waves that day were awesome. Definitely look them up. we spent all day there on the beach and didn't have to bring a thing with us. Lunch was even provided, we had the pizza, huge slices and pretty tasty. Easy to check in, they make sure you're safety informed and they have helpers on the beach. 10 out of 10.
