Oahu
Our families had a great time! We loved the banana boat ride, and Enjoyed the live music! Staff were so friendly and inviting and always put our safety first! Definitely will do this again!
Mahalo \nm/. We were on the afternoon ride on 4/26
My wife and I had an awesome experience on doing the sandbar and beside the goodtimes we had in the water, i think the live music made it perfect!
Highly recommended and for sure going to book again next time we are back in the island!
We booked the afternoon ride and had an awesome time. The crew is great. They are very friendly and helpful and have such amazing attitude. The guys playing music are good too. The lunch sandwich was good, I loved the salad. The boat has changing rooms and restrooms! First time snorkeling and very much enjoyed this time with my kids. Its about 4ft deep.. Would do it again. Leave tips!
We came from Canada to Oahu and wanted to visit the sandbar. The food, staff, entertainment, everything was beyond our expectations!! This is a great great tour !! dont hesitate and get a ticket!!! You will LOVE IT!!
Thank you to all the amazing staff !
Enjoyed the tour, was actually surprised by how tasty the bbq lunch was! I went in April so I’m not sure how this affects the visibility but it was difficult to see when snorkeling. Really enjoyed seeing the sea turtles and hanging out at the sand bar
It was an amazing experience!! the guides were outstanding! They took care of us so well, very knowledgeable and friendly .
This place is unbelievable beautiful !
A must do if you are in Oahu.
Thank you so much for your kind words. Your feed back is greatly appreciated and we look forward to seeing you again in the near future.
First time snorkeling for my husband and I. Zola was very thorough and showed us all kinds of sea life! 10/10 recommend!! Will have to try scuba diving with Zola next!!
We had a wonderful time and we enjoyed all the activities at the Kaneohe Sandbar. We did the paddle board, kayak and snorkel with breathtaking views. The live music was so relaxing during the boat ride. Thanks to the captain, crew and singers who were all so friendly and amazing! Overall, it was an excellent service provided by the Kaneohe Bay Ocean Sports! I definitely will book again on my next trip and recommend them to my family and friends.
My family and I had a wonderful experience :) the environment was very friendly and safe.
It was fun, the staff very friendly and what they offered was at the price
My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our experience kayaking to the sandbar! It was easy to follow the instructions and the map to get to our destination. It is quite tiring, but the view is breathtaking. We did start our kayaking adventure around 9am, so those that had an earlier reservation at 8am were already at the sandbar, so we were on the lookout for the bright yellow kayaks when making our way there, but I can definitely see some getting lost if they went early in the gloomy morning. Weather conditions do vary on how visible and shallow the sandbar is, but we were lucky to get to see the sandbar exposed!
Aloha Lucy,
Thank you so much for joining us for a kayak adventure! And thank you for taking the time to leave such an awesome review for us! We really appreciate that. Stoked you made it to the sandbar. And your feedback about the conditions, wind, tide, visibility, distance, difficulty level, all of the above is all very true and great feedback for people to hear. So we appreciate that as well. Stoked to hear it sounds like you had an overall good experience and good workout kayaking out there. Hope to see you again soon! Mahalo!
I'm a local resident and this was my first time at the Kaneohe sandbar. This experience was amazing! I wanted to do something that my roommate & I haven't done for her birthday. I recommend getting the package to ride the banana boat & the bumper ride! Also it's BYOB, bring snacks, food, & change of clothes because they have restrooms/changing rooms on the boat. I will definitely will be booking again with my friends!!
They called to let me know I needed passes to Hanauma Bay (which I didn't realize). This saved our whole day because I didn't realize I had to be there so early to secure 4 tickets to the park which sell out by 8:30 am (latest). This info was a life saver as we showed up to rent our snorkelling gear by 7:30 and were at the park before 8am to secure walk-up tickets. Tip: get your tickets to Hanauma Bay online at 7am 2 days in advance (they sell out in 2 minutes). Then you don't have to wait in line at the park on the day of.
Great place!!
The best experience on our whole trip, plan to go back. I found this activity from a YouTube review which depicted the activity perfectly. We upgraded to the Banana boat and bumper ride, which is just a quick few minutes ride each. There was so much to do and explore, the 3 hours went by too fast. The musicians on board was the perfect touch in creating a fun relaxed atmosphere, their music set the tone for the trip and was the fun that pumped us up to enjoy the whole trip. My elementary school kids enjoyed all the different activities. We brought our own food and drinks. We brought our own snorkel gear. We enjoyed the included refreshments. I invited my best friends family to join us and they felt the same. Will book again.
Overall very good. Thank you! Overall very good. Thank you! Overall very good. Thank you!
A really good catamaran tour. Crew was super friendly. The food was delicious and the drinks too. Saw lots of turtles, fish and one whale from afar. Loved spending time just being there in the open water on the boat.
Did the afternoon tour. Had a wonderful time! Ladies on our Blue boat was very personable and sweet! Made our trip out to the sandbar soooo relaxing and fun. Would definitely reccomend.
We're very pleased to hear you're having a great time at the sandbar.
Thank you so much for kind words and sharing your best experience with us with the Capt. Bruce tour.
Please come back with your kids next time. Mahalo!
The boat and staff were very nice and the tour was good. However, if you are going to charge the prices you do, not can at least expect fresh pineapple and not canned. It is Hawaii. And the rest of the food was underwhelming.
The staffs are super friendly and the activities are well managed and safe!
My husband and I have been to the islands many times but this was our first to the sandbar! Captain Bob’s was awesome. The boat, food, staff and the amazing sandbar was all excellent. We are making this a new tradition, for sure!
The best time on the island. Staff super helpful professional and knowledgeable, kept us entertained and throughout the day. Food was great, provided us water and drinks throughout the trip (BYOB) to keep us hydrated. Will recommend to anyone looking for a snorkeling adventure.
This experience was worth it all! The crew was great and they took really good care of you! They pointed out the sea turtles and told us where to go so we can find them! They always made sure everyone was doing okay and if we needed anything, they would go out of their way to make sure we’re having a great time. We purchased their “special” drink and it was delicious. The boat itself is very clean as . The crew is very funny and will make your trip worth it. I can’t wait to book my next adventure with them.
Had an amazing time on a morning tour out to the Kaneohe sandbar. Very fun and friendly staff, with an additional perk of the best live music onboard. Would highly recommend!!
Great staff, awesome experience!got everything that was promised
Outstanding service, communication, experience. Proactively attend to any need w/ authentic kindness & joy.
On Behalf of Captain Bruce, Mahalo and aloha...!
Staffs are so nice and experienced.
They took time to make sure all of us have great time.

We are coming back next year and will do this activity with Captain Bruce Kaneohe bay sandbar snorkel! Cannot wait! Thanks guys~
Thank you so much for your kind words. We look forward to seeing you again. Aloha!
We had a wonderfull day, the live music, activities available and the whole mood of the trip was so much fun and relaxed!the food was just a small salad and croissant sandwich with chips and a water so if your very hungry get I’d advise you to get some food at the cafe by the docks, it’s super yummy! The trips also byo friendly so we had our own food and drinks! The staff and entertainment were amazing!there were families, children, couples and friends like our group! It was well blended and I will defiantly be coming back on my next trip to hawaii! Mahalo!
What a must do activity. And do it with this tour!!!! Boat was beautiful food was great and most of all saw beautiful fish…lots!!! Plus two sea turtles and the big bonus was coming back on the boat was spotted a hammerhead shark!!!! Awesome to see it up close!!! The crew was top notch!!! Couldn’t do enough for you!! A must do in Hawaii…with this company!!! That’s for a great time captain…& the one gentlemen I missed his name (tall thin blonde), Jake, Kai & Marissa!!
Our family was really enjoying the Kaneohe Sandbar.
The crew are so kind and helpful, too.
We had a fantastic time overall!
It is a must when you visit Oahu whether it is your first time or you have been to the island more than once. It was definitely the highlight of our trip. It was also family-friendly and parties with infants and children can definitely enjoy this tour.
