Outrigger Canoe Surfing with Waikiki Beach Boys

Yes! SO much fun!!!

Reviewed by: Brande

I went on the outrigger tour with my boyfriend and my 74 year old Mom. The guys were VERY kind, helped her in and out of the outrigger and we all had a BLAST!!! We had SO much fun we even paid the pretty expensive price for the thumb drive full of digital pics because we totally had to see it all! We'll never forget this adventure!!

A wonderful experience. The beach was beautiful and the trail guides were experienced I highly recommend this. For any level rider horses were easy enough for a child. I would recommend early morning and leaving an hour before due to traffic.

Just do it!

Reviewed by: Michelle

You should definitely book the sandbar excursion. We had a great time paddle boarding and playing volleyball. The best part was the banana boat and snorkeling as we got to see sea turtles. The staff is so nice and helpful and the music was great as well. We will definitely do this again!! Take your drinks and enjoy the best time ever!

Always Honest Review

Reviewed by: Sharon and family

This was a great experience. It was wonderful to be educated about all the ocean conservation and the coral life that is being done. Was also nice at the time, it was not too crowded - which did make this trip worth the price.

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

THE BEST TIME EVER!

Reviewed by: Katrina

We were a group of 16 travel nurses. We had a blast! We booked the afternoon tour with banana boat and tube rides. We were provided with lunch upon boarding. We also brought our own coolers and snacks. There was live musicians playing who were AMAZING!!!! The ENTIRE crew was so fun and accommodating. They made sure we were taken care of. They provide you with snorkel gears, stand up paddle, kayaks and there was also a floating lounge area to chill at. We had a blast playing water volleyball too. JUST BOOK IT! You won’t regret it. Also please bring cash to tip the crew and musicians because they truly deserve it. Mahalo for everything!!!! Will come back again!

North Shore Clear Bottom Kayak Tour & Turtle Watch from Haleiwa Beach

Kayaking

Reviewed by: Jennifer

The whole experience was just amazing! My son and I had pretty much a private tour. Just the two of us and our guide! Our guide went way above and beyond telling us history of Hawaii and just making our experience super special. Our favorite was how relaxing and peaceful kayaking though the river was. And seeing the sea turtle was breath taking! Kayaking on the ocean was so beautiful! Two total different experience in one adventure! Can't wait to come back and do it again!

West Oahu Dolphin Watch & Reef Snorkel Tour with Ocean Activities - Iruka Hawaii

Incredible Experience

Reviewed by: Jess Detko

Absolutely incredible experience! Every crew member was friendly, knowledgeable, and joy to be around. We saw two large pods of dolphins (crew estimated each pod to be about 100 spotted dolphins) - it was awe inspiring to see these beautiful animals in their natural environment. After two separate snorkel tours for dolphins, we moved to shallower water for various activities - the crew members were so helpful and great with kids wanting to try everything! Splurge and purchase the professional photos! We highly recommend this tour to everyone and will definitely go again the next time we visit.

Captain Bob's Kaneohe Sandbar Snorkeling Tour & BBQ Lunch with Waikiki Pickup

Amazing time for the whole family!!

Reviewed by: Patricia

As a family of 3 young children (10, 7 and 20 months), we wanted to do at least one excursion on our trip and this was perfect for the 20 month old as she was able to swim in the sandbar! There were no issues taking the 40 minute bus and then the 10 minutes boat ride over to Kaneohe. It was very organized and clean! The staff were very professional and nice and when I emailed the company about bringing my baby’s float, they had no concerns! Kaneohe Sandbar was absolutely breathtaking and so beautiful! We even saw lots of sea turtles! We spent some time in the sandbar to swim and they even set up a volleyball net! They also come around and take pictures for you. While you’re out swimming, the other staff is preparing lunch. The food was pretty good too! Next stop was snorkeling and my husband said it was fun with the kids. They even rinse you off after you’ve finished. Definitely pack extra dry clothes as the bus gets cold - I read a review about that and it came in handy. I am definitely going to recommend this excursion to others.
