Oahu
Reservations were fully booked for two days in advance, so same-day applications were not possible. I recommend making an early reservation. Before boarding, they asked if I had a fever and provided a paper to write down contact information in case of an accident.
When boarding, you need to take off your sandals. You will get wet up to your knees, so please wear something that can get wet. It's barefoot inside the boat. Many people wore swimsuits because of the splashes along the way. I brought a towel to dry my feet. There was a place to store luggage inside the boat. You can buy Mai Tais and juice on board, and there were restrooms available. I brought my own drinks, though. The staff took photos and were very friendly, making it a lot of fun!
予約が2日分先まで埋まっていて、当日の申し込みはできない状態でした。早めの予約をお勧めします。乗る前には熱がないかを聞かれたり、事故にあった場合の連絡先など書く紙がありました。
いざ乗るときにはサンダルを脱いで乗ります。膝くらいまでは濡れますので、濡れても良い格好で参加してください。船内は裸足です。途中しぶきで濡れるので、水着の方が多かったです。足を拭くタオルを私は持っていきました。船内に荷物を入れる場所はありました。船内では、マイタイやジュースを買うことができますし、トイレがありました。私は飲み物は持参しましたが、、。スタッフさんが写真を撮ってくれたり、気さくでとても楽しかったです!
I think this may be one of the best experiences I’ve had in my life- if you like to kayak and like to swim this is for you! Soo soo amazing!
If going alone make sure you bring waterproof case for your phone soo you can keep it with you in case of any trouble- you have full reception while in the water!
Great staff, beautiful scenery, and amazing experience!
Aloha Lesley! Wow, what amazing feedback! Thank you so much for joining us for a kayak and snorkel adventure, and thank you for taking the time to leave this awesome review for us! We really appreciate it. It is so beautiful out there (awesome photo from the sandbar) and when we hear one of the best experiences of your life, that is just so gratifying and that really means a lot to us. Hope to see you again soon! Mahalo nui!
To begin the pickup by the driver was great. The staff was so friendly it was contagious. The musicians were great. The vibe was amazing. We had a great time and would do recommend them to anyone.
Amazing time, once in a lifetime, would do it again, great crew, very safe but fun, crazy great views, great service and pictures, )lllllllllllllllllllll
This was one of the most amazing days of our trip to Hawaii the sandbar was so beautiful the clear water was amazing!! The snorkeling was so fun! The boat ride was so much fun and the crew was awesome we actually wish the boat ride was longer, we didn’t want it to end!!! I definitely recommend this tour!!
The lunch is good too
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。
I had a blaste and my husband jet skiing and paragliding experience was awesome when had the best host with a very pleasant attitude I will surely come back ony next hawaii vacation
The staff and entertainers the best!! So helpful and acvoto everyone
I am so happy I went with this company for my “All inclusive Kaneohe Sandbar Snorkel Cruise, Ocean Sports Adventure & Live Music“ package! My girl friend and I had a blast! Check out my page for photos and videos of my fun experience: IG: Jen4fit
The best excursion to do in Hawaii! If we go back, we’d do it again! Staff is nice, never felt fear on the boat at all!
The boat crew was amazing! They were all friendly and overall made the trip enjoyable! The musicians were very good! I’ll definitely come back and when I do, I’m bringing my family so they can experience what I experienced!
The whole experience is awesome and worth it. Their's alot of activities that you can do. The customer service is also awesome. They're all well trained and organized. Their is also a live band that provides the perfect chill music the entire tour.
I highly recommend them and definitely coming back.
First time try jet ski and parasailing! Really fun and we had a great time!
Fun is what we do! Thank you for joining us.
Really enjoyed the sandbar tour! One of the best experience on island!
This was a great experience! A must do if visiting and looking to enjoy a day in the ocean with lots of options for different water activities. Would recommend!
The crew and the water activities were really fun
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.
Aloha Sheila,
Thank you so much for joining us for a kayak and snorkel adventure! And thank you for taking the time to leave this awesome review for us. We really appreciate that. I am so glad to hear you had this kind of experience with us and with kayaking in Kane'ohe Bay. That's great. Hope to see you again soon! Mahalo!
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.
Loved the snorkeling. The staff was amazing. Very helpful and friendly. The scenery was incredible. I took off one star because some of the lifejackets had mysterious stains on them. I would say this is mostly for people 18-30. It was a young crowd.
The ride was great----a lot of fun. However, although they offered to have a photographer available to take pictures, she was not there at the time of the ride and we lost the opportunity for the photos.
Aloha! Sorry for the delayed reply. We are so happy you enjoyed the canoe ride. We do apologize that the photographer however wasn't on site at the time of your booking. We will be sure to reach out to the photography team to remedy this is the future. We hope to have you back sometime in the near future.
Had a great time! Amazing and friendly staff. Enjoyed the views
It was one of the best experiences in Oahu. I will do it again! The place is amazing and the crew was excellent at all times! They make everything easy for us to enjoy each moment at the sandbar!
When I said my name at the reception booth, the boat hadn't returned yet, so I waited a little. I got a sticker on my arm or watch, signed a safety waiver, and boarded the boat. At this time of year, there are no people wearing masks, but since we were on the sea, it didn't bother me.
People on the boat took turns soaring into the sky, and I was asked if I wanted to take photos for an additional $200, but I didn't since I had a GoPro.
I enjoyed the endless sky and sea, and the experience of speeding back with a water landing service was fantastic.
As a note, you need to have $20 in cash for tips.
受付の小屋で名前を言ったら、まだボートが戻ってなくて少し待ちました。腕か時計にシールを貼ってもらい、安全の誓約書にサインしてボートに乗り込みます。もうこの時期はマスクする人もいないですが、海の上なので気にならないです。
ボートに同乗する人で順番に空に舞い上がりますが、オプションで$200の写真をとるか聞かれましたが、ゴープロがあるのでつけませんでした。
どこまでも続く空と海を堪能して、着水サービスもありながら、ボートをかっ飛ばして帰ったのは素晴らしい体験でした。
注意として$20の現金がチップとして必要です。
Excellent staff and outrigger crew.
Our group planned our visit for two years before we could make the trip. The outrigger canoe was on my bucket list every planning session.
Thanks for the wonderful rides.
My boyfriend and I purchased the kayak/snorkeling experience and it was quite the memory! Everyone was great helping us get set up and guiding us! When we went out and kayaked we saw so many different fishes during our snorkeling adventure! The crazy part was that it started raining while we were far out and snorkeling. Instead of kayaking back we continued to snorkel until the rain stopped! For the price and experience it was totally worth it!
Also I recommend purchasing the 4 hour experience because I don’t think you will be out for the whole 8 hours even tho it costs just a little bit more! We were our a max of 2 hours!
If you’re wondering on whether or not to purchase think no more! Overall it was an amazing experience and I highly recommend it! Also booking this package will prepare you for everything vs booking on the actual business site since this package has a dry bag, snorkeling gear, and the anchor (this will keep your kayak in place while you’re snorkeling). Hope this helps and you make great memories from this experience!
Aloha May! Thank you for joining us for a kayak and snorkel adventure! And thank you for taking the time to leave this great review for us. Your feedback is very valuable and much appreciated. I’m certainly glad to hear you had a great kayak and snorkel experience with us, and we hope to see you again soon. Mahalo!
Awesome experience, would absolutely recommend. The surf was a little rough and the boats were running behind schedule, but the office was willing to accommodate me and put me on an earlier boat so I didn’t have to wait. The crew was amazing and made the experience memorable. They offer photos for a reasonable price so you can just focus on enjoying your time.
The place is really nice and the boat is clean and safe. The staff are very accommodating and friendly, they gave us detailed instructions and safety reminders. They guided us until we completed our activities.
Me and my 3 girls get there 15 minutes before 9am (few minutes window for us to get the free parking spot and signed the waiver forms).
We reserved the morning all in package and it was satisfying and activities are worth the price.We purchased food at General Store and Deli which is next to the boat docking area. We waited for 4 more groups and the boat moved forward at 9:30am. The live music entertainers were great and they sang really well and made us felt comfortable through out our entire stay. (They have jars for the cash tips so bring some for them coz they deserved it).
The rest of the water activity crews were all friendly and remindful, specially Shyla. She made us felt satisfied with our banana boat and water tubing (flat float). (Follow her advises). Snorkeling was great and found different kinds of fishes. (Be careful not to get hurt from the corals, wear appropriate attire for protection). The kayak and paddle boat crews are very nice, they kept eye on everyone’s safety. We played volleyball but a bit windy so pick the good weather. There were water, orange juice and donuts with 3 different flavors and you can bring your own food and drinks (no glass containers or bottles allowed). It was fun and unforgettable. Thank you!
I made a reservation because I had some time before check-in on the day of arrival. Dolphins swam close to the boat, and I even got to see whales nearby. They sell alcohol on board, so you can enjoy beautiful views while drinking! There were not many solo participants, but the crew was attentive, and there were no issues at all!
I would love to go again!
到着日にチェックインまで時間があったので予約しました。
イルカが近づいてきて船の横で泳いだり、クジラまで近くでみれました。酒も船内で売ってるので、飲みながら綺麗な景色が見れます!
ひとり参加は少ないですが、船員の方も気にかけてくれますし、全く問題ありませんでした!
また乗りたいと思います!
Amazing! Crew made us feel safe and experience is so fun!! All the pics that Diego took captured every moment!
