Chief's Luau - Polynesian Show with Authentic Award-Winning Fire Knife Dancing

Show outstanding!

Reviewed by: Marla

I loved everything about the traditional dance and music. Amazing — especially the fire show. The rest was a huge cattle roundup with loading us onto buses, standing in lines, sitting in long tables, getting food like school lunches — all in a not-ambiance-producing water park. So I honor the Chief and his love, as well as Cousin Lisa our bus driver’s spirit of love and family but there was nothing relaxing about this production. Luau’s should be on grass among trees near water with time to socialize and enjoy the time with new friends and old. Thank you for sharing Polynesian culture though!

Haleiwa Shark Tours - Best Shark Cage Diving in Hawaii with Local Expert Guides

Awesome experience!

Reviewed by: Collette

Our guides were friendly and provided great information about the sharks local to the area. Totally recommend taking Dramamine the night before and the day of the dive as the water was a little choppy. We got to see about a dozen Galapagos sharks during our dive and even got to see a whale.

Had a great time!

Reviewed by: Laurieruth

The Kualoa Ranch Movie tour was so much fun! Our tour guide shared many bits of knowledge about the ranch and the island, and “The Rock” and his family were even on the ranch when we were there( unfortunately we didn’t run into him) we can’t wait to book another tour.

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

Great for many water activities in one spot!

Reviewed by: Angie E

We loved our adventure!
We stayed in Waikiki for a short trip and decided to book with this company because it had many of the activities we wanted to do available in one trip. We chose the option to be picked up in Waikiki, and it took less than an hour to get to Kaneohe. BYO food and beverages so we packed hotdogs, pbj, water and my husband packed a beer. We also packed 2 towel and a change of clothes. There is a convenience store on the dock for last minute food and drinks; TBH we probably could have bought all our food and drinks at the dock instead of lugging it from Waikiki.
We set sail with live music to the sand bar which was incredibly magical. Took 4 songs to get to our area of the sandbar and the day we went the water was about 3 feet deep. I would ADVISE to get to the floating barge asap and get a spot because we had a large family get there first and dominate the raft. (Be courteous to others and let people enjoy the raft and don't hog it!) We got to experience all activities we wanted and it was over before we knew it. We didn't kayak and had maybe wanted one more hour but the time we were out there was enough to be highly satisfied.
We paid extra for the banana and tube rides and they were so much fun! While on the banana boat, the gentleman driving the speed boat slowed down for us to see the sea turtle that was swimming passed. What a great surprise! You only get one trip on each.
All the staff was friendly and I felt comfortable they had everything under control.
We would HIGHLY recommended this adventure, especially if you have a short time in Hawaii and want to do at lot of water activities. Great for families, too!

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

Fun & relax

Reviewed by: Elvy He

My daughter loves it so much. However, we don’t have big Sun that day, so I choose to stay inside of the boat most of the time. My daughter go paddleboarding and diving. She loves it. Both of us go for the banana boat, it’s too short actually like 5 mins. But it’s fun and we have people fell off. So, if the weather is good, it’ll make a big difference.

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

Amazing experience, must do while on the island of Oahu

Reviewed by: P Yang

This tour was amazing. My friend and I met the tour guides and boat at the dock in Kaneohe and once we got onto the boat, we received a decent lunch. I highly recommend doing the afternoon package for the food and better weather. The boat ride took about 15 minutes and we were entertained with live music along the way. When you dock, they give you about 4 hours to do anything you want on the sandbar. From snorkeling, kayaking, paddle boarding or just hanging out on the floating bar. I highly recommend this as a must do activity if you are on the island of Oahu. This boat tour is definitely worth the money and so much fun!

アトランティス潜水艦ツアー ハワイの海底30mを進む海中アドベンチャー <ヒルトン・ハワイアン・ビレッジ発/日本語ナレーション(要事前ダウンロード)>

World of the Blue Sea 青い海の世界

Reviewed by: ハワイ大好き

I participated in the 9 AM departure. At the check-in counter, I was welcomed in Japanese. Everything else was in English. In the photos of the submarine on the website, there were audio guide earphones provided, but there were no headphones, possibly due to infection control measures. Even though I didn't understand English, I was glad to have met the sea turtles and fish. The view from the submarine was a world of blue sea, and I couldn't distinguish the colors of the fish well, except for yellow.

As a measure against infections, all passengers were required to wear masks. For those who didn't have masks, there were supplies available. The crew sanitized the submarine windows with alcohol during the exchanges.

The weather was nice, and there weren't many waves, so it was good that there was little rocking. The view from the boat before boarding the submarine was also lovely.

朝9時出発に参加しました。チェックインカウンターでは日本語で歓迎してくれました。それ以外は英語でした。サイト内の潜水艦の写真では、音声ガイドのイヤホンが置かれていましたが、感染症対策の為かヘッドホンはついていませんでした。英語はわからなくても、ウミガメやお魚たちに会えたので、行って良かったと思いました。潜水艦からの眺めは青い海の世界で、魚は黄色以外は色の違いがよくわかりませんでした。
感染症対策として、乗船者は全員マスク着用です。マスクを持っていない人には、用意された物がありました。潜水艦の窓は、入れ替えの時にクルーの方がアルコール消毒をしていました。
天気もよく波もあまりない日でしたので、揺れも少なくてよかったです。潜水艦に乗る前の船からの眺めも素敵でした。

The best experience 最高の経験

Reviewed by: ALOHA

I had the best memories surfing at the popular beach in Waikiki while looking at Diamond Head. The lecture was easy to understand as they made an effort to use Japanese. They also took photos during the surfing session. However, it was a bit disappointing that it cost $50.

ワイキキの人気でにぎわってるビーチでダイヤモンドヘッドを見ながらサーフィンができて最高の思い出になりました。
レクチャーも日本語を頑張って使っていただきわかりやすかったです。
サーフィン最中の写真撮影もしていただけました。
ただ50ドルかかってしまうのが残念でした。

Thank you for the 5-star rating and your comments. We're glad to hear you enjoyed your experience. Regarding the photos, our company does not provide photography services; we work with another company called Beach Boy Photography. Underwater photography and videography require significant skill, and due to staff hiring and insurance, we believe the minimum price of $50 is unavoidable. Please understand that this is offered as an additional service, not as a requirement. We look forward to your next visit. Mahalo!

5つ星のレイティング、そしてコメント、有難うございます。楽しんで頂けて何よりです。さて、写真の件ですが、弊社では写真のサービスはしておらず、ビーチボーイフォトグラフィーという他の会社に依頼して行っております。水中でとる写真・動画はかなりスキルを必要とするもので、スタッフ雇用、そして保険などを含めておりますので最低$50のお値段は避けられないのだと思います。ですので強制でなく、追加のサービスとして提供しています事をご理解ください。またのお越しをお待ちしております。マハロ!

First off, the staff. Super friendly, super helpful, super efficient. The Kaneohe Sandbar is fun enough as is, but with S.U.P’s, kayaks, and a floating “chilling” barge, it was a blast. Family friendly. Had my three boys in tow, ages 5,7, and 15. Many mahalos to the great staff. I don’t usually post reviews, but felt the need to share. The band playing to and from the sandbar was the cherry on top!
