All Reviews for Watersports & Ocean Adventures

We enjoyed the activity. We went to the sandbar during high tide, so the water was up to our knees, just slightly under our hips. The difficulty is easy, especially when it's self-guided. The corals are beautiful when snorkeling! The waterproof maps helps a lot, and obtaining the rentals were a breeze. They provided snorkels, dry bags, maps, flippers, life jackets, and the kayaks. Overall, I would recommend! Bring some snacks, because the four hour rental was exhausting. Just be sure to clean up after yourselves and do not litter!

It’s cool and all, just not much to do out there. Basically paying to swim 10 minutes off the beach. Not worth the money.

What a very pleasant activity. My husband who does not go into the water loved it and wants to do it again. Great crew. We had a great time

Guides were patient and informative. Saw some cool fish! Would definitely recommend

We really enjoyed the trip. All staffs are super friendly and helpful. Everything we needed were prepared and provided. I wish I had chosen a less windy day, but regardless, we all had a great time, whether in water or on the boat.

Our time at sand bar was amazing, it started with the crew and the musicians.
they made us comfortable and answered all our questions.

We had booked the banana boat and bumper package and it was exhilarating.

Looking forward to our next trip so we can book another tour.

The crew and experienced was amazing. We would go back for sure

I have been visiting Hawaii for over twenty years, and I thought I should participate in a sandbar experience at least once. In November, the sandbar is not visible at all (to be precise, you can only see a slight difference in color indicating shallow or deep water from the boat). The water level reaches up to my neck at 162 cm tall. The shallow period, where the water is only ankle-deep, is said to be in the summer.

Additionally, due to somewhat cloudy weather and strong winds, it was quite cold, and it didn't feel enjoyable. *The shuttle vehicle is refrigerator-level cold, so a jacket is essential.* The snorkeling was quite ordinary... there was no mention of sea turtles. I highly recommend snorkeling at Hanauma Bay instead.

The areas for activities like snorkeling, SUP, and kayaking are limited (not very wide), so you end up turning back shortly after you start paddling. The trip from the port is quick, with Hawaiian music playing for 2-3 songs on the way there, and on the return trip, it turned into a lively dance party for foreigners.

In terms of facilities and services, there are two women's restrooms and one men's restroom on board. There are unlimited donuts (two types), water, lemonade, tea bags, and hot water available. The donuts are delicious. There were two kind staff members who spoke a little Japanese (Kansai dialect). This staff member goes around the tables explaining things for Japanese participants.

I recommend participating during the summer season, but overall, considering the price, it felt like a 360-degree beach experience.

ハワイに通い続けて二十数年、一度くらいサンドバーに行っておこうと思い参加しました。
11月のこの時季、砂州は全く見えません。（正しくは、船から見て浅いか深いかの色の違い程度）
水位は私の身長162cmだと首くらいまであります。
足首程度の浅い時期は夏だそうです。
また、多少天気（雲多め）のせいもありましたが、風も強くてとにかく寒く楽しむって感じではありませんでした。
※送迎の車内は冷蔵庫レベルなので、上着が必須です。
シュノーケリングもごく普通...ウミガメなんて話にも出てきません。
ハナウマ湾でシュノーケリングする方が、圧倒的におすすめです。
シュノーケリング含めSUPやカヤックも遊べる範囲が限られている（それほど広くない）ので、漕いだらすぐに折り返すって感じです。
港からはあっという間なので、往路はハワイアンミュージック２～３曲で到着、復路はノリのいい外国人向けのダンスパーティー場と化しました。
設備やサービスとして、船内にはトイレは女性用×２、男性用×１あります。
ドーナツ（２種類）と水、レモネード、ティーバッグ＋お湯が食べ放題、飲み放題です。
ドーナツは美味しいです。
少しですが日本語（関西弁）を話す親切なスタッフが２人居ました。
説明などは、このスタッフが日本人向けにテーブルを回り説明してくれます。
参加するならサマーシーズンおすすめしますが、全体的にはお値段を考えると360度のビーチってレベルでした。

We headed to the hotel in Waikiki by taxi and arrived in about 30 minutes! This time, we booked three activities, but parasailing was canceled due to strong winds. It was disappointing, but I think it was good that they considered safety and offered a refund! On the way back, the staff called a taxi for us, and they were very kind!

ワイキキにホテルがあるため、タクシーで向かいました！30分くらいでつきました！今回3つのアクティビティを予約しましたが、強風のためパラセーリングは中止となりました。残念ではありましたが、返金もあり安全を考慮してもらえたのでよかったと思います！帰りもタクシーを呼んでくださって、店員さんが親切でした！

My family absolutely loved this! It was our favorite activity of our entire vacation! The crew was very helpful and gracious.

About three years ago, I had planned to go parasailing here, but unfortunately, it was canceled due to strong winds on the day of the activity. The next day, I had to return home and didn't have enough time, so I had to sadly give up. To make up for the humiliation from three years ago, I booked parasailing here again this time. It was truly so much fun from start to finish!!! If I get the chance to go to Hawaii again, I will definitely use your services again. It became the best memory! Thank you!

約3年前にこちらでパラセイリングをやる予定を入れていたのですが運悪く当日、風が強く中止に。翌日、帰国しなきゃいけず時間に余裕がなくその時は泣く泣く断念しました。3年前の屈辱を晴しに今回もこちらでパラセイリングを予約させていただきました。最初から最後まで本当に楽しすぎました！！！次もまたハワイに行く機会ができたら絶対にまた利用させて頂きます。最高の思い出になりました！ありがとうございます！

My husband and I took the North Shore Tour hoping to get a bit of everything - activities, beach, relaxation and fun. We got what we wanted and more. We had Cousin G who made everyone feel comfortable and entertained, and made the tour engaging and funny.
The tour had a good balance of free/activity time and many choices to choose from. We did the waterfall and kayaking option and was one of the highlights of our trip to Hawaii.
We also got the chance to sight see the east and north side of Oahu and had many stops for photos and breaks.
We felt like we got our moneys worth from this trip and got to see and do a lot on the island in just a 8am - 5pm timeframe.

The activity was fun! Service was great! The views were outstanding! The only reason I didn’t rate this a 5 star is because I thought the experience was going to be longer. I either misread the information online for the itinerary wasn’t clear. But either way I would definitely do it again!

I was very impressed with the Kaneohe Bay Sandbar. It was our first time out there and it surpassed our expectations. The food was not the greatest but we went for the experience and not the food. The live musicians were awesome and got the crowd pumped and excited. The lifeguards were also great in explaning how to do things such as kayak, snokleing, as well as the banana boat and bumper float. The views while in the water, amazing. So BEAUTIFUL! Definetly must go to Kaneohe Sandbar.

I've been to Hawaii many times, but this was my first try at this activity. I have a fear of heights, so I thought I would never do it. However, at the strong request of a friend who was visiting Hawaii for the first time, I decided to join in.

Seeing Waikiki Beach and Diamond Head from a different angle was an incredible deal! Since it was all ocean below, I didn't feel high at all. The takeoff, landing in the water, and landing on the boat were all very gentle, so I wasn't scared at all! It was just so much fun! It became a wonderful memory. Next time, I think I'll take my husband along.

何度もハワイに来てて、初めてのトライ。
高所恐怖症なので、絶対することはない、
と思っていたのですが、今回初めてのハワイ旅行の友人のたっての希望で、一緒に参加しました。
ワイキキビーチやダイヤモンドヘッドが別角度から見えて、無茶お得‼︎
一面、海なわけで、逆に高所感が全くなく、
飛んで行く時も、着水やボートへの着地も
凄く丁寧だったので、何も怖くなかったです‼︎
ひたすら楽しかった‼︎ いい思い出になりました。
今度は主人に付き合ってあげようと思います。

This is a cruising experience around Waikiki from the beach in front of Sheraton Waikiki. The interaction between the captain and another crew member creates an extraordinary cruising experience.

シェラトンワイキキ前の ビーチから ワイキキを 一周するクルージングです。キャプテンともう一人の クルーの掛け合いと 異次元に感じる
クルージング感激です。

We where a party of 8 adults. It was such a beautiful day from the time we got on the boat the staff where very welcoming and gave us a a run done of the do's and dont's. On the way out to the sandbar we where entertained by two very talented singers. We had donuts ,water and soft drink for morning tea. only took about 15 min to arrive at the sandbar.It was such a lovely morning you could do some canoeing, paddle boarding, Volley ball, snorkeling,or just chilling on the barge.
All up we had an awesome day and would highly recommend doing it.
we would all do it again the next time we are in Hawaii.Do yourself a favour and book it next time you go to Hawaii.

Super fun! A friend booked it for us and we had a blast! Staff were friendly and super helpful and telling us where to go and what to expect!

The sandbar is so much fun! We got to go with 2 other couple friends and we had a blast. The weather was perfect and the staff were super helpful in letting us know where to kayak to and the time expectations to get to each location point

Super fun! They tell you where to go to get the clearest water and snorkel depending on the weather and climate of that day too! So much fun!

We travelled to the Oahu to enjoy our vacation and thought about to explore the Kaneohe Bay. And then we found out the Kayak Kaneohe activity online and we booked it! The trip is way beyond our expectation. Before the activity date, the trip organizer will send us all the detailed information about the activity date, etc where to meet, the kayak route. On the activity date, although we were about 15 minutes late, the trip organizer still waited us there and didn't complain anything. When we arrived, he helped us to equip the Kayak to our car and taught us how to wear the safe jacket and pull the Kayak into the water. He is super nice and knowledgeable.

It took us around 1 hour to Kayak to the sandbar. The view was very nice during the Kayak experience. When we arrived the sandbar, although the weather was not very nice but the water was still super clean. We have snorkeled in the Sandbar about half an hour and then we kayaked back to the harbor point. The whole trip took us about 4 hours. Although the Kayak was a little bit challenging, we still highly recommend to book this trip! It was very fun to explore the Kaneohe Bay Sandbar!

My partner & I went on my birthday and it will always be a day to remember. The crew and staff were brilliant. The music was beautiful and the views just take your breath away. I highly recommend the banana boat and biscuit water rides.

I felt a bit seasick on the boat, but it was a fun time. I got to know a Korean couple and we took pictures together. Thank you for the enjoyable time. "Thank you!"

船に若干酔いましたが楽しい時間でした。
韓国人のカップルとも仲良くなり写真の取り合いをしました。
楽しい時間をありがとうございます。
「感謝！」

Even a 5-year-old could fly! At first, he was scared, but the scenery was so beautiful that he said he had fun after flying.
However, I recommend taking motion sickness medication because the boat sways quite a bit and the waiting time is long.

The guide was very friendly and spoke to my son several times, who was feeling nervous. Since the landing is quite intense, if your child isn't okay with getting water on their face, it might be traumatic.

We were supposed to gather at 2:00 PM, but we ended up meeting at 2:30 PM, and we returned around 4:30 PM. Even if you gather early, I think it's fine to be cutting it close since there was quite a bit of waiting time.

5歳の子どもでも飛べました！最初は怖がっていましたが、景色がとてもきれいで、飛んだ後は楽しかったといっていました。
でも、船はかなり揺れるプラス待ち時間が長いために酔い止めを飲んでいくことをお勧めします。

ガイドさんもとてもフレンドリーで、緊張している息子に何度も話しかけてくれました。
思いっきり着水するので、水が顔に濡れても平気な子でないとトラウマになるかもしれません。

時間は予定時刻よりかなり遅れて2時半集合でしたが、帰ってきたのは4時半ごろでした。はやく集合しても、待ち時間がかなりあったのでギリギリでも大丈夫だと思います。

It was a particularly windy day, and perhaps because it was somewhat cloudy, the water was cold, and everyone was getting in with blue lips. The water was about adult chest height, making it quite difficult for a 5-year-old to move around without assistance. It may not have been suitable for small children. There were other kids present, but they all seemed to be in a bad mood after getting in the water. The babies were crying loudly. Since it was quite cold after entering the water, I recommend bringing a long-sleeved change of clothes.

However, the guides were all friendly and kindly explained things in broken Japanese. I think it would have been enjoyable if the weather had been nice and there hadn't been any wind.

ちょうど風が強い日で、曇り気味だったせいか、水が冷たくてみなさん唇真っ青になりながら水に入っていました。大人の胸くらいまで水深で、5歳児にとっては補助なしでは水の中を移動するのもやっとでした。小さい子ども向けのアクティビティではなかったかもしれません。他にもお子さんがいらっしゃいましたが、どの子も入水後は機嫌が悪そうでした。ましてや赤ちゃんなんてギャン泣きしてました。入水後かなり寒かったので長袖の着替えを持っていくことをお勧めします。
でも、ガイドさんたちはみんなフレンドリーで日本語もカタコトながら親切に説明してくれました。天気が良くて、風さえなければ楽しかったと思います。

There’s no point in going out to sea just to see nothing but water.

The text should clearly state that the beach is not visible during the travel time. If I had known that, I wouldn’t have made the reservation.

ただ船で行く海の中www
砂浜も見えないただの海で行く意味なし。

もっとわかりやすく本文に、行く時間に砂浜が見えないことを記載するべき。それがわかっていたら予約してない。

Starting from Waikiki Beach, you can have the best experience with the wind at your back. The waves are calm, and the breeze is pleasant—definitely recommended!

ワイキキビーチから出発して、風をうけて最高の体験ができる。波も穏やかで風が心地よく絶対おススメします。

Awesome day on the Sandbar!!! They literally provide you with TONS to do. Better than guided tours!

I think this tour is quite a bargain. After all, it includes hotel pick-up, lunch, rental bicycles, lockers, and free snorkeling and board rentals! Is there such a great tour available?

You can also shop in Kailua, swim in the beautiful sea, and we even got to see a honu (sea turtle)! Many of the staff spoke Japanese and were very helpful in answering any questions we had! Natsue, Emi, and Tomo were all friendly and pleasant!

I highly recommend this tour! ♪

このツアーはかなりお得だと思います。
何しろホテルまで送迎付き、ランチ付き、レンタル自転車付き、ロッカー有り、シュノーケリングやボードも無料で貸してくれる！
こんなお得なツアーあるでしょうか？

カイルアで買い物も出来るし、綺麗な海でも泳げるし、何とホヌにも会えました！
スタッフも日本語分かる方が多く、分からない事は丁寧に教えてくれました！
なつえさん、えみさん、ともくん、みんな気さくで感じ良かったです！
お世話になりました！

とてもおすすめのツアーです♪

Honestly the best idea we had on this hawaii trip! Probably the best part was going all the way out to the sand bar and snorkeling until 4. I totally recommend doing this again.
