Oahu
The dolphin tour was so crowded and even though the guide was friendly and the people were very friendly there were just too many. Many people didn’t actually get to see the dolphins in the water and were being kicked with fins because of how crowded it was. We will not be doing that again unless there are less people.
Aloha Megan,
We are sorry to hear that you found the tour too crowded and will pass this feedback onto our operations management. We have modified operations this month so that we are better dispersing guests between tours available. We are also actively researching for the optimal passenger count that allows us to serve as many guests as possible who dream of swimming with dolphins while still prioritizing safety and comfort. We hope this helps to demonstrate our commitment to your satisfaction. Mahalo and aloha!
What an amazing adventure to go on! Hop on in the water and the sharks come to you! It’s amazing you can even see other creatures if they come near too!
Amazing experience. The guys were very nice and knowledgeable. Made the experience fun and relaxing. We saw about 4-6 sharks and a barracuda. Highly recommend these guys.
We will definitely be coming back to them next visit. And they take photos for you for free
The crew were excellent on our trip for my birthday on 28 September 2021. The snorkeling was very well managed by the team. The entertainment was first class. Just wish I had made a note of their names on the 12.30pm trip. Thanks.
We had a wonderful experience at Captain Bob’s Sandbar Cruise. The entire staff was very friendly and made sure everyone had a good time. The guy who gave everyone instructions (forgot his name) was very friendly and hilarious to listen to. We got to play on the sand bar for an adequate amount of time, had some burgers, saw some sea turtles, snorkeled, and saw a huge coral reef. Overall a very memorable and fun part of our trip. My only regret was because so much was included I forgot to bring my wallet so I couldn’t tip them! Maybe next time. Thanks for the wonder memories!
The team was great and fun and helpful. Great experience for sure! :-)
Perfect family fun. Friendly and knowledgeable crew. Great for those looking for adventure on the water!!
Would recommend doing this. Friendly, well organized!
We loved the experience. I highly recommend them and their staff.
I highly recommend this tour, felt very family oriented and chill. The staff on board were super friendly. The tour goes to three destinations, first the sandbar, then turtle watching, and snorkeling. Each stop was the perfect amount of time. I would definitely do this again if I had the chance.
We had a great time. The crew member are helpful and friendly. The boat is clean and well maintained.
We had a great time, and the crew was awesome! Sandbar and snorkeling was very cool!
My wife and I had a great time! The crew was super helpful and friendly. They were great about getting the correct gear, pointing out interesting items - including the 5 turtles we saw that day.
Captain Ryan and his first mate were awesome, and we will definitely go again and can absolutely recommend this experience to others.
We had the best time on the Captain Bob snorkel tour. The sand bar they took us to was awesome to just hang out and get acclimatted to everything. The food was good and the actual snorkel location was pretty great. All the equipment was sanitized and if you wanted you could use your own stuff or buy a set from them.
Saw a pod of dolpins. swam with sea turtles and we had rare sighting of a HUGE pod of pilot whales, maybe about 30-40 of them !
Mahalo for taking the time to sum up your experience with us. We hope to see you out here again. :) Lisa
The tour was great, crew were really nice and tons of fun! We saw a bunch of turtles and fish, and even saw dolphins next to the boat on the ride back.
Weather was tough. Super workout, but it was an adventure. So much fun! Best birthday morning work out!
Aloha! Thank you so much for joining us for what sounds like a windy kayak adventure! Thank you for taking the time to leave such an awesome review and photos too! We really appreciate that. Glad to hear that you had a good adventure and a good workout for your birthday. That's awesome! Happy birthday, thank you again, and hope to see you again soon! Mahalo nui loa!
The crew was very friendly and helpful, especially with making non-swimmers comfortable getting into the ocean. The scooters were super fun, and we saw sea turtles while snorkeling after our turn on the scooters.
I'm so glad we took this tour. It was one of the most fun and memorable moments of our Hawaii trip.
Sandbar was amazingly beautiful, the crew was friendly and fun, lunch was simple but delicious, and several sea turtles welcomed us... I can't think of anything bad about this tour because everything was perfect!
Very positive experience. Easy check in and staff was great. Family friendly.
this is a good trip worth to go, it has all water activities to give a try, I can jump from the 2nd floor of the boat into the water, staffs are friendly, will go again in the next visit of hawaii
Wow! This cruise was fantastic! We were able to see so many sea turtles up close and personal. I had to actively maintain my distance because they were so friendly and seemed completely unaffected by humans.
We had such an amazing time! We brought our 6 month old baby and still had a blast! The tour was so fun and the guides were amazing. I’d 100% recommend this to anyone
So happy we chose Captain Bob’s sandbar and snorkel Tour … the crew, the views, the experience… it was all AMAZING!! The crew was very attentive and when we went out to snorkel, the water was a little choppy, they made sure to come over and help anyone that looked like they needed even a little bit of help! The water volleyball at the sandbar was also super fun!!
Amazing experience with these spectacular creatures that don't get the credit they deserve. This tour was definitely an eye opener and will give participants a far better and more educated perspective about not only the shark population but several others as well. Thank you IslandView Inc and the 3 guides who made the experience far more sensational than I suppose I was expecting.
The lead guys name was Sam but unfortunately, I don't recall the other two who were out in the water with us and taking photos. They absolutely made this adventure outstanding for us all!! You guys are awesome. I'll be back!!!
We booked this one instead of the self kayaking to the Sandbar, and it was definitely worth it. If you want the relaxing and chill experience, and have fun, book this one. Our captain/crew was super nice and great. They take you to the sandbar, which is super beautiful, and you hangout there for about 1-2 hours, they provide you with boards and water equipments so you don't have to bring your own. The snorkeling was pretty cool too, didn't see any turtles though but still beautiful and great experience.
Aloha Gary! Thank you so much for taking the time to write this wonderful review. Your feedback is greatly appreciated and we look forward to seeing you again. Mahalo!
We had a party of 6, 2 adults, 14yo, 10 yo, 7yo, and 5 yo. We took 3 tandem kayaks. Wish we could have done 2 since the younger 2 were basically extra weight! The guide did not show good snorkeling so the tedious paddle to the sand bar was not exciting for the family.
The location was amazing and the view was fun. We loved our time in the east part of the island.
Aloha Wes! Thank you so much for joining us for a kayak and snorkel adventure. And thank you for taking the time to leave such an awesome review for us! We really appreciate that. Hope to see you again soon! Mahalo!
It’s a great workout; reaching the sandbar was well worth the effort.
Aloha Renju! That's awesome! Thank you so much for joining us for a kayak and snorkel experience! And thank you for taking the time to leave such a great review for us. We really appreciate that. Glad to hear you got a good workout and had a good time! The sandbar is amazing and well worth the workout for sure. Hope to see you again soon! Mahalo!
We really enjoyed our snorkeling with sharks. The guides were great and we spent quite a bit of time in the water just swimming with the sharks. One of our favorite activities we did in Oahu!
