This was a wonderful trip. The crew was phenomenal. They were very attentive to the passengers and were extremely knowledgeable about the area and the marine life present. In addition to the turtles promised, we even spotted the first whales of the season (quite early, in fact) and had dolphins come right up to use within the reef, also a rare happening. One of the nicest things about this group is that, even though their vessel can hold up to 80 passengers, they keep the number of people in the group small in order to make it a much more enjoyable and interactive experience. I would highly recommend this group for their professionalism and attention to detail. If I had more time on my trip, I believe I would have taken this trip again or one of their other offerings. It is WELL WORTH the low price, and I would highly recommend this to anyone wanting a truly magical snorkeling adventure.

The catamaran, staff, punctuality and overall experience was excellent! This is an absolutely beautiful way to experience the sunset off Waikiki. We were encouraged to sit at the front, helped with pictures, and greeted with smiles all around. As a BYOB experience, it was well worth the money!

Fabulous scenery, excellent staff. We went Friday morning 10/28. We played with paddleboards, and floating on the sandbar. The crew than walked us out to coral water with Google, and lifevests for safety. We saw many beautiful fish and found about 3-12"turtles mostly resting in the coral reefs. It was excellent time. Highly recommend.
Aloha, thank you so much for your feedback and sharing nice pictures.

We had a great time with a wonderful crew of ladies! You all run a tight ship. Well organized, fun and relaxing time. Would have been fun to have a “I survived a Portuguese Man of War sting” shirt for the lady that ran into the little guy. Mahalo!

The Captin Bruce Cruise and swimming experience was amazing. All of the boat crew members had great attitudes and made this a very memorable day. The crew was always right there to help all family's feel very important and helped in make a everlasting memory for all ages.
This was my family's first trip out on the Ocean. The crew helped us find the best places to see all underwater sea life fish and coral. We got to get right up to all the Turtles as they were resting in there natural environment or help us all swimming around to make these memories of a life time. I would love to be able to come back so I can make reservations with this same group.
We're very pleased to hear the whole family is 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.
Mahalo for your support and Aloha...

What an amazing adventure! The crew was so nice! The boat ride was amazing and the snorkeling was just out of this world! Best day of my entire trip.
The barbecue was perfect. And playing volleyball in the middle of the ocean was just unreal! Thanks again for the memorable experience

ずっと行きたかったサンドバーのツアーに、大学生の友達4人で参加しました。日本人のガイドさんがいたので、特に困ることもなく、楽しく過ごせました。サンドバーでもシュノーケリングでも、写真をたくさん撮って満喫するだけの時間は十分ありましたし、船の上からウミガメもたくさん見れました!とてもおすすめのツアーです!

First of all the bus that picked us up was old and need some works done. A 45 minute drive turned into a 11/2 hour drive. We picked the sand bar as my husband and I both can’t swim. I was pleased that we got to do some snorkeling together. We did see some turtles as well.
Then it was the deeper sea snorkeling. I was so afraid of the deep sea. So we ended up waiting in the boat for over an hour.
There are actually a few coaches on the boat. If they would Guide us through that would be a lot easier.
We just felt left out from the whole group.
Advice,

Sehr schöne Tour, Moana Team nett, kompetent, freundlich. Man sieht viele Schildkröten. Aber, der Spot vor Waikiki ist overcrowded, viele Auslugsboote kommen dorthin, mit ebenso vielen anderen Schnorchlern. Leider sind nicht alle rücksichtvoll und halten sich an die Regeln (dont touch the turtles, keep distance). Wenn das so weitergeht kann man drauf warten, dass der Spot zum Schutz der turtles geschlossen werden wird :-(

My two friends and I had an amazing time. The crew was amazing, friendly, informative, interactive, talked a lot with the participants, very engaging and informative about the wildlife. We’ll do it again for sure! Time flew, it was over before we knew it! ... snorkeling was great, paddle boarding exceptional, and just relaxing on the giant blue floating mat was the best! Will definitely do again!

Overall worth it, the only thing is that the snorkeling site was nothing exciting and you could barely see turtles or any fish. The best part was the volleyball match.

I booked the morning turtle snorkel tour hoping that time would ensure we saw turtles and we did! There were 5 turtles and occasionally 1 would surface near us and then swim back down. Great experience seeing them up close.
This tour was the best price I found and since it's a short sail, glad I did.

Amazing day even with the rain. Definitely coming back when it's sunny and low tide. Captain Robin and his team were super friendly, amazing and patient. Even with the rain there was plenty of fish and turtles to see. I'm not a strong swimmer and I need to touch the bottom (it's weird I know) but Captain Robin was so accomodating, calming, understanding and patient and took me out to the deep reef area on a floater device and I was able to see the fish and turtles. I'm glad he did and I'm glad he didn't push me when I tapped out early. True champion.
The vessel is clean and has plenty of snacks and hot and cold drinks if you don't want to take your own. You can take your own alcohol and they also have plenty of water toys, paddle boards, floatation devices in a seperate raft.
Make sure to bring cash to tip as they are definitely deserving of any gratuity and the experience is amazing as well. One I'll definitely do again when I'm back next time.
Thank you so much was a wonderful day.

We saw lots of green turtles as well as a variety of fish. The staff on board were excellent, making sure that everyone was enjoying the experience. I will go on this tour again when I come back to Waikiki.

Was an excellent cruise with theee lovely, fantastic crew members (they were excellent with my older mother too). Boom net was fun, we saw a pod of dolphins and caught a great wave back into the beach. Lots of fun and excellent value for money. Would highly recommend!

My wife and I had a great time with Captain and crew. Enjoyed the bay, sandbar, watching sea turtles, and meeting new friends from around the country.
Great burgers and cold drinks were perfect to make this excursion a must book experience on your island vacation.

5泊した中でまさかのサンドバーの日だけ生憎の天気に残念な気持ちでワイキキを出発しましたが、そんな気持ちも船に乗れば吹き飛びました(*´-`)
日本人ばかり集めた船が一隻、外国の方で一隻の合計2隻でそれぞれ出発だったと思います。
クルーのゆきこさんはとても明るく面白く、色んなことを教えてくれました。シュノーケリングエリアまでの船で指示通りの方向を見に行くと、ホヌとマンタを見ることができました。
残念ながら水中では見ることはできませんでしたが、沢山の魚にとても興奮しました。
また次も参加したいと思える様なツアーでした。

One of my most favorite adventures in Honolulu. Beautiful sunset, spinner dolphins, and turtles. The staff is great helped with everyone get on and off the boat., They asked it they could take photos for us. Answered all questions.
I would highly recommend.
