Private Kaneohe Sandbar Speed Boat Rental with SUP & Snorkel – Captain Bruce

Great experience for the whole family

Reviewed by: Stefanie

We booked the trip for 4 people age 22-67. While the younger ones went on a private guided snorkeling tour and saw a lot of turtles the seniors could wander around the sand bar, take a floatie or hang out on the boat. Small snacks, soft drinks and water were provided. As well as snorkeling gear, floaties and a SUP. We had an amazing time time on the sandbar!

An Exhilarating Way to See Hawaii

Reviewed by: Hawaii Explorer

This X-Treme Ride on Waikiki's Parasailing Adventure was the PERFECT way to end our Oahu vacation. Waikiki and the beautiful sunny day were the perfect backdrop for our last adventure before we went home to the snowy state of Maine! The crew members were awesome and made this so easy and fun. We were able to sit back and enjoy the ride. They offer a photo package so even if you are doing this alone you can still have a bunch of GREAT photos of you living in the moment. I would definitely recommend this activity!

Honolulu X-Treme Parasailing Tour Adventure [700ft, 850ft, 1000ft or 1200ft Rides]

Flying High!

Reviewed by: Mary

The was the BEST parasailing we’ve ever done - and we’ve done several on both coasts of the mainland and different islands. Although the seas were a bit rough, the parasailing was outstanding. The captain and crew of Freedom were gems. My son said he would give them a 6 out of 5 stars - lol.
Definitely go for the 1000 feet! The windy day really had us flying well above any of the competition.
Will do this one again on our next visit.

Perfect family vacation day!

Reviewed by: Kalika Moquin

This was the perfect way for our family to spend a vacation afternoon. We stopped and got sandwiches and drinks before. There was a cooler on the boat. The water at the sandbar was shallow and the kids had the best time swimming. No waves so very safe. Snorkeling and paddle boarding were included as well as other water toys. While snorkeling we swam with turtles! Our captain was great, and we are happy we selected the private tour and had our own space.

This private snorkel tour was 100% worth the money. A private pontoon boat with many amenities, including snacks, drinking water, water sport toys and others were all provided.

1st time Parasailing

Reviewed by: Michelle

This was my family’s first time in Hawaii and first time parasailing. Let me first say how the booking experience was amazing. The day of our parasail adventure we checked in at the booth. The young lady working that morning was so helpful and had great customer service. When I checked in she explained the 2 pieces of paperwork each adult had to sign. Her phone rang handled her business with the customer on the phone and then apologized and thanked me for being patient. Next she explained everything we needed to know, where we needed to wait etc. Check in process smooth and straight to the point. Then our boat arrives I forgot the young mans name but he was so awesome. Captain Mac I believe his name was, was also amazing. What to expect was clearly explained, directions clearly explained and a sense of humor made our first time parasailing all worth it. Definitely a memory that will not be forgotten. Book with Xtreme an experience you won’t forget !!!!

I had a great time! とっても楽しかったです!

Reviewed by: ( ˘ω˘ )

When we experienced it, everyone around us was a foreigner. Therefore, I couldn't understand the conversations at all and couldn't communicate much with those around me, but the journey on the boat was very refreshing with good weather. However, it was very bumpy, so motion sickness medication is a must.

As for the parasailing itself, we gradually went up to 150 meters above the ground, and it was very scary as we swayed with every gust of wind. But the view was incredibly beautiful and it was a lot of fun!

私たちが体験した際には、周りは全員外国人の方々でした。そのため会話の内容は全くわからず周りとコミュニケーションはあまり取れませんでしたが、船での道中は天気も良くとても爽快でした。ただ、非常に揺れるので酔い止めは必須です。
パラセイリング自体は、150m上空まで徐々に上がっていき、風が吹くたび揺れて非常に怖かったです。

Reviewed by: しおり

I participated from 130m! First, I was picked up, checked in, and then boarded the boat. The reception counter, the boat driver, and the guide were all local people, so there were some parts of the instructions and explanations that were difficult in English, but I could kind of understand through gestures.

There was no time to be scared since it was my turn to jump right away! (laughs) Once I got up, the view was incredibly beautiful and moving. I got a bit nauseous while waiting for others to jump, so I think it would be good for those who are worried to bring motion sickness medication!

I'm glad I participated! It was so much fun.

130mでの参加でした!
まず、送迎してもらい受付を済ませ乗船という流れです。
受付カウンターと船の運転手、ガイドさんはすべて現地の方なので注意事項や説明は英語で難しい部分もありましたが、ジェスチャーなどでなんとなく分かる感じです。

暇なく回ってくる順番で飛ぶので、怖いと言ってる暇が無かったです!笑
実際に上に上がるとすごく景色が綺麗で感動でした。
他の人が飛んでいる待ち時間で少し酔ってしまったので、心配な方は酔い止めを持参したら良いと思います!

参加して良かったです!

It was taller than I imagined! 想像以上の高さでした!

Reviewed by: とよやん

I found a slightly cheaper plan, so I thought, why not go for the highest one! I splurged and signed up. The speed of the boat to the destination was fast, and the height exceeded my expectations! From below or above, you can hardly see anyone's face! The moment of floating in the sky while feeling the Hawaiian breeze was the best! When descending, they check whether you want to get wet or not, so those who prefer to stay dry can participate with peace of mind.

We participated as a pair, but there was someone who joined alone, so we shared the ride. I was a bit surprised that such things happen. Also, the staff will take photos of you during the parasailing for $30, but honestly, the quality was quite disappointing. It felt like they were just shooting rapidly without a zoom lens, so you can barely see that you're floating up there, and of course, you can't see any expressions. You wouldn't even notice if a different person was in the shot. I was really looking forward to it, so I was quite disappointed. I think it would have been much better to ask someone else who was riding with us to take the photos. ^_^;

少しお安くなったプランをちょうど見つけたので、どうせなら一番高さのあるものを!と思い、奮発して申し込みました。
目的地までの船の速さも速く、高さも予想以上でした!下から見てても上から見ててもほとんど人の顔は見えません!
ハワイの風をあびなから空に浮かんでいる瞬間は最高でした!降下した際、水に濡れたいか濡れたくないか確認してもらえるので濡れたくない方も安心して参加できると思います。
私達は二人で参加でしたが一人参加の方がいたため相乗りになりました。そうゆうこともあるんだ…と少し驚きでした。また、スタッフの方がパラセイル中の様子を$30で撮影してくれますが、それは正直残念すぎる腕前です。望遠レンズでないのかちっっっっさく上に浮かんでいる状態を連写という感じでもちろん表情なんてわかりません。もはや違う人がうつっていても気付きません。楽しみにしていたのにかなりがっかりでした。同乗した他の方に頼んだ方がよほど上手だったと思います^_^;
