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

Our family’s second Hawaii Trip back to back years and it’s so good we had to come back!!!!

Reviewed by: Calvin Perez Duenas

Whole crew are amazing and show such excellent hospitality and service! Always make us feel so comfortable with our whole experience! Music sets the vibes and when you get to the sandbar it’s breathtaking! Even on an overcast day like we had it’s so worth it! so I can say rain or shine you have you have to experience it. Shyla was amazing and runs a great group, it’s always a must when we visit Oahu. Thank you again for the amazing hospitality and we can’t wait to come back. Mahalo!!!

I appreciate the hospitality of the guide. ガイドの方のホスピタリティに感謝

Reviewed by: NORIKO

There were two guides, one of whom was a Japanese woman. There were about ten participants, with two Americans and the rest being Japanese. The guides were kind and attentive, allowing us to enjoy the tour with peace of mind. When I initially struggled with breathing through my mouth, the male guide quickly came to help me. The female guide also held my hand and swam with me.

It was drizzling on the day of the tour, and the water level was quite low, so I was glad I borrowed a wetsuit. I was able to see a lot of fish as well.

ガイドの方は2人で、1人は日本人女性の方でした。参加者は10人ぐらいでアメリカ人2人以外はは日本人でした。ガイドの方は親切丁寧に接してくださり、安心してツアーを楽しむ事ができました。わたしが最初口呼吸がうまくできない時、男性ガイドの方がすぐに助けに来てくれました。女性ガイドの方も手を握って一緒に泳いでくださいました。
当日は小雨で水位もかなり低く、ウェットスーツを借りておいてよかったです。魚もたくさん見ることができました。

I want to go to Hanauma Bay again! ハナウマベイにまた行きたい！

Reviewed by: HONU

The instructors were a veteran woman and an American who spoke Japanese well. They were very knowledgeable about Hanauma Bay and took safety into consideration, allowing us to enjoy snorkeling with peace of mind. I heard that they resumed tours in February, but due to environmental protection measures, it can be difficult to make reservations, so I recommend booking early.

インストラクターは、ベテランの女性と日本語が上手なアメリカ人の2人で、ハナウマベイを熟知されていて安全に配慮してくださり、安心して、たっぷりとシュノーケルを楽しめました。2月から本格的にツアーを再開したとのことでしたが、環境保護などから予約が取りにくいツアーなので、早めの予約をお勧めします。

Hanauma Bay Snorkel Tour with Expert Guide & Waikiki Transportation

Outstanding experience!!

Reviewed by: Roger and Susan

Dan and Chieko were great hosts and guides. Dan picked us up and we talked with him quite a bit. He was kind, knowledgeable, and down-to-earth. Chieko was energetic, caring, and knowledgeable. The whole process (pick up and drop off, fitting for flippers, trolley down to the beach, putting on wet suits (additional option), instructions on technique and guidelines, storage of valuables, etc) was smooth from start to finish. This was my partner’s first experience snorkeling; she felt safe and at ease with Dan’s and Chieko’s instructions and guidance. We spent some time in the shallows and then went to deeper parts of the bay. We saw lots of fish! Hanauma Bay is a very special place. Overall, this was an amazing experience that my partner and I highly recommend!!!

A wonderful experience

Reviewed by: Sharla

We had a big group of us go on this tour. It was seamless from the start. Check in was super easy, the boat ride was quick and so much fun!! The band was incredible!! And the donuts were yummy. When we got to the sandbar instructions were given and we got to go explore and have fun! My daughter actually got stung by a jellyfish while snorkelling and it could have ruined our excursion but the staff were excellent. Got her help immediately and were super attentive and caring to make sure she was doing ok. They even shared their own experiences with jellyfish. She got out in the water and had more fun before we had to head back to shore. Thank you for everything!! If we come back to Oahu we would definitely do another tour!!

The clarity of Hanauma Bay was wonderful!! ハナウマ湾の透明度が素敵でした！！

Reviewed by: たこやき

Until we arrived at the site, we were guided in Japanese, and we were able to enjoy snorkeling at Hanauma Bay! The water was so clear that we could see the fish beautifully, and it was incredibly fun!
It seems that boats are prohibited at Hanauma Bay, so since you enter from the beach, I think wearing a wetsuit is essential to avoid injury while swimming over the coral reefs!
I had a great time! Thank you very much!

現地に着くまでは、日本語でガイドいただきながら、ハナウマ湾ではシュノーケリングを楽しむことができました！！透明度が高いので魚が綺麗に見えて非常に楽しかったです！
ハナウマ湾は船が禁止らしくビーチから入るため、サンゴ礁の真上を泳いだ際に怪我しないようにウェットスーツは必須かと思います！

Reviewed by: やまん

It seems that sandbars appear depending on the season or time of day. When we went in late March during the day, it was just a regular shallow sea. There was live music on the cruise, which made us feel like we were in America! The activities were also fun. It seems essential to bring a jacket or a change of clothes, as it was quite cold.

I was lucky enough to encounter sea turtles twice. There were also many small fish, and it felt like swimming in an aquarium; it was simply the best. The sea was cold in some areas, and the rocks were rough, so it seemed better to rent a wetsuit. Thank you for the wonderful memories.

It was tough having to swim closely together with 9 participants. While snorkeling, we had to keep an eye on the guide's position, and it became difficult to swim when everyone was too clustered. I thought it would have been nice to swim a bit more freely.

参加者9人て固まって泳がなくてはいけないのはたいへんでした。シュノーケリングしながら、ガイドさんの位置を確認しなくてはならないし、9人が固まりすぎると泳ぎにくい。もう少し、自由に泳げたら良かったかなと思いました。

The Best Tour in Oahu- a must do!

Reviewed by: Alaskawayne

Wow! To start. They picked us up at our hotel to start. Then drive us to Kaneohe sandbar. Next a beautiful short boat ride to two barges loaded with sea toys. Beautiful shallow sandy beaches that are user friendly for small children to seniors. The reef snorkeling is easy, very well guided and watched in smaller groups. We swam with turtles. Captain Danny went out of his way to share local marine knowledge and make sure all got to see turtles. This was our second time- we also sent our daughter and grandchild. They immediately fell in love with the tour and friendly crew. They are like family to us now. We will always come and swim with the turtles only with Captain Bruce's Team.
We have tried others and this family prefers and highly recommends Captain Bruce's based on experience. I am a former diver for the Seattle Aquarium, researcher for Washington State Department of Fisheries, Rescue Diver, Assistant Dive Instructor Advanced Open Water and lastly Alaska Department of Fish and Game. Simply said "Captain Bruce's does it right". I send my grandkids there Thank you Captain Bruce's! We love you!!! My only request is that you start another tour a bit more advanced for experienced snorkelers.
Then sign up this family

Great views and lots to do.

Reviewed by: Jillian Godwin

I’m so glad we booked this excursion during our 2 day whirlwind tour of Oahu. We have a friend that’s on the island so we came over from vacationing on Maui to visit. Check in was super easy. The boat was clean and well kept and the crew was amazing. Loved the live music on the journey to and from the sandbar. Once we arrived, there was a little something for everyone. Paddleboarding, kayaking, hanging out on a floating platform or snorkeling! They even had inner-tubing and banana boat rides for an extra fee. The views of the island were stunning. Trip lasted roughly 3 hours so plenty of time to still explore the island after. Shout out to Preston and Jesse for all the aloha and good vibes. It was a super fun trip and we highly recommend to anyone visiting Oahu. It’s a really great excursion.

Fun times

Reviewed by: Norman family

Everything in the title and description is not only accurate, but does not disappoint! Festive and fun the whole time... beautiful setting with the smaller islands and mountains surroundings, standing a mile off shore in the middle of the bay. Nice touch having the floating lounge, and thoughtful idea providing fish treats for snorkeling(!) The music Jessie and crew played on board, and DJ-ed during activities was awesome--so much fun dancing with the fish! We only wish could have had more than one go of the banana boat and bumper tube. Worth doing more than once on a trip here, definetly--almost tried walking in backward when we were leaving

Enjoying the Journey

Reviewed by: Lyna M

My husband and I took our family to Hawaii for spring break. We always at the kids do something different. I thought they might be hesitant, but they tried The banana boat and the bumper boat and loved it, probably one of the most fun things they did on this trip. The only thing I would say I was disappointed about this excursion was that the description said they will provide soda or coke with lunch but we got lemonade instead. The bathroom on the boat also needs to be restocked before taking the next ride out. There were no soaps or hand sanitizer to use. Besides this, we had such a fun time.

Unfortunately, the sandbar was not visible, but we were able to see turtles while snorkeling, and the kids were delighted. During this time of year, the water temperature is low, so it was cold. However, it was great to try stand-up paddleboarding for the first time, and once we got on the boat, we could enjoy warm drinks, which helped us warm up!

残念ながら、サンドバーは出ていませんでしたが、シュノーケリングで亀が見れて、子供達は喜んでいました。この時期、水温が低いので、寒かったです。でも、初めてSUPをやったり、船に上がったら温かい飲み物も飲めて、身体も温まり、良かったです！
