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

Many hours of many fun activities would definitely do it again

Reviewed by: Mike

The live music was fun while traveling on the boat to The Sandbar and the donuts were fresh and good. The tubing was an absolute blast! The banana boat was not as fun as the tubing and my wife fell off although we did see sea turtles while on the banana boat. We would definitely do the tubing again. The snorkeling was fun with lots of fish swimming right in front of my face and a coral reef below you while you float on your stomach. The board you can stand on or kneel on and paddle was interesting and challenging. They also had kayaks but everybody wanted to use the boards. Playing volleyball with multiple people out in the water was fun and they also had other toys like footballs and water guns but nobody really used them. Just swimming in the middle of the ocean while standing on the sandbar was a blast. The sandwiches on the way home we're also fresh and good. The only thing that could make this better was if the boat did not have a roof so we can feel the breeze and fresh air while traveling out to The Sandbar. Overall I would definitely recommend this and do it again!

We utilized the afternoon plan for a family of four, including our elementary school-aged son and daughter. We drove to the meeting point with a rental car, and from there, it took about 20 minutes by boat. On the boat, we enjoyed lunch (croissant sandwiches, etc.) and drinks while taking in the scenery. After finishing our meal, we arrived offshore shortly after.

When I went, the water depth was just enough for an adult like me to stand a little, rather than being at a sandbar.

Once offshore, we enjoyed kayaking and stand-up paddleboarding, which thrilled the kids. During snorkeling, I was able to see many fish even as a beginner when diving in areas with coral. Additionally, there were about 4-5 staff members nearby at all times, so I felt comfortable letting the little ones play.

We also reserved a banana boat as an option, but due to some waves that day, we switched to a banana boat. The kids enjoyed the thrill of being towed at a decent speed, and we were amazed when a large sea turtle came right next to the boat. It was much bigger than the sea turtles we saw in Haleiwa Bay, and when I asked the staff, they mentioned that this area has few predators, allowing them to grow larger.

The tour lasted just under four hours, from around 12 PM to 4 PM, and there were staff members who spoke Japanese, making it a reassuring experience for those who are not confident in English.

I participated in the afternoon session with about 20 people in six groups. I noticed that there were significantly more participants in the morning session, likely more than double. If it’s less crowded, I think you can enjoy the activities for a longer time, so the impression may vary depending on how busy it is.

小学生の息子・娘を含む家族4人で午後プランを利用しました。
集合場所まではレンタカーで行き、そこから船で約20分、船中はランチ（クロワッサンサンド等）や飲み物がついているのでそれを食べながら風景を楽しみ、食べ終わって少しすると沖に到着。
ちなみに私が行った時はサンドバーではなく、大人の自分が水中で少し足がつくかな、くらいの水深でした。

沖ではカヤックやSUPが楽しめ子供たちも大喜び。スノーケリングでは珊瑚がある場所で潜ると素人の私でもたくさんの魚を見ることができました。
またスタッフが4-5名は随時近くに居てくれるので、多少小さな子がいても安心して遊ばせることができると思いました。

また、オプションでバンパーボートを予約したのですが、この日は波が少しあったので当日バナナボートに変更、そこそこのスピードで牽引され子供たちもスリルを楽しんだほか、大きなウミガメがボートのすぐ横まで寄ってきて感動しました。
ハレイワ湾で見たウミガメよりもだいぶ大きく、スタッフに聞いたところこの辺りは外敵が少ないため、大きく成長できるんだとか。

12時過ぎから16時ころまで4時間弱、楽しむことができるツアーで、参加中も日本語が話せるスタッフもいたので、英語が得意でない方にも安心して参加できるツアーだと思います。

私が参加したのは午後で6組で20名ちょっとくらいが参加、当日の午前のツアーで下船された方は非常に多く倍以上は参加者がいたのではと思います。空いているとアクティビティも楽しめる時間が長くなると思うので、混み具合で多少印象は変わるかもしれません。

It depends on the weather. 天気次第

Reviewed by: Plassey

It's a bit expensive, but you should choose the PM course. The AM course can be cold if it's not sunny. When it's cloudy or rainy, the water visibility is low and it feels cold. The snorkeling equipment is old and there isn't enough, so I recommend buying some at ABC Store before going.

多少高いがPMコースにするべき。AMコースは晴れていないと寒い。
曇りや雨だと、水の透明度も低く冷たく感じる。シュノーケル機材も古く数も足りないので、ABCストアで買って行くのをお勧めする。

Second sandbar tour. サンドバーツアー2回目

Reviewed by: くるとん

Last time, I participated in a different sandbar tour with Veltra around the same time, but it was so deep that my daughter, who is nearly 140 cm tall, couldn't touch the bottom, and it was cold, so we wanted to try again. It was really great!! We saw a lot of fish and were able to do many marine sports, which was the best. Even my 9-year-old daughter, who can't swim at all, had no problems with snorkeling for the first time. The banana boat was also fantastic. I would love to participate again. If I had to say something, I wish there were a few more drinks available...

前回、同じ時期にベルトラの別のサンドバーツアーに参加しましたが、140センチ近くある娘の足が付かないほど深くて、かつ寒くて今回リベンジ。凄く良かったです！！魚もたくさん見れて、マリンスポーツもたくさん出来て最高でした。全く泳げないシュノーケリングも初体験の9才の娘でも問題ありませんでした。バナナボートも最高でした。また参加したいです。強いて言うなら、もうちょっとドリンク類置いて欲しかったな、、、

ウミガメシュノーケリング　モアナ号　広々快適な大型カタマラン船でリラックス！アルコール含むドリンク購入可　貸切プランあり＜3時間／英語／ケワロ湾発＞

I made a reservation before departure. 出発前に予約しました

Reviewed by: あやか

We couldn't make a reservation for Hanauma Bay, and we wanted to snorkel with a group of 13. I thought we would bring our own fins and shoes, but instead, we had to leave our shoes in a basket outside the boat and go in barefoot. We were able to borrow fins and goggles. My mother waited on the boat. In August during Obon, the sun was strong and there was no place to hide, so I think it's good to have towels or something. The wind was strong enough to blow away hats. We were the only Japanese people there, and everything was in English, so we struggled a bit, but a kind female staff member helped us in Japanese using her smartphone. I didn't realize that drinks were free after snorkeling, so the person who was informed was able to drink. There was a menu, and they made beautiful cocktails for us.

ハナウマ湾の予約が取れず、シュノーケルやりたいと13人で予約。フィンとか靴は持っていくものだと思ったら、逆に船の外のカゴに靴は置いて行って裸足で入らなきゃいけませんでした。フィンやゴーグルは借りられました。母は船の上で待ってました。8月のお盆は、日差しが強く隠れるとこがなかったのでタオルとかあると良いと思います。帽子は飛ばされるような風です。日本人は私達だけで、全部英語だったので苦労しましたが，優しい女性スタッフがスマホで日本語で教えてくれました。シュノーケル後は一杯無料ということが分からなかったので教えてもらった人は飲めました。メニューもあって綺麗なカクテルを作ってもらっていました。

I went on a day when the water level was about waist-high. I enjoyed snorkeling, canoeing, and paddleboarding to my heart's content. The music on the boat created a great atmosphere, and the donuts were delicious.

I opted for a pickup from downtown Honolulu, but on the way there, the driver almost left without confirming my name. Even when I tried to tell him my name, he didn’t listen and closed the door on me. After a while, he opened the door and let me on, saying that I was indeed on the reservation, but that initial interaction left a very negative impression.

腰くらいの水位の日に行きました。
シュノーケリング、カヌー、ボードなど時間いっぱい思い思い楽しみました。
船内ミュージックも雰囲気良く、ドーナツも美味しかったです。

ホノルル市内から送迎をオプションで付けましたが、行きの際、ドライバーの方から名前の確認もされずに置いていかれそうになり、名前を伝えようとしても聞いてもらえずドアを閉められました。
しばらくしてやっぱり予約されてたから乗ってくれとドアを開けられ無事に乗れましたが、その時の対応だけとても印象悪くマイナスでした。

A beautiful experience. 美しい体験

Reviewed by: キムチ

The banana boat can hold six people, and while it goes fast, it's not so fast that you'll be thrown off, so you can enjoy it with peace of mind.

We happened to see a lot of honu (sea turtles), so we were able to see them up close. They said we were lucky, so it might be rare to see them.

Other activities (like canoeing) may have limited availability, so you might need to wait your turn.

However, since we had plenty of time, there was no need to rush.

バナナボートは6人乗りで、スピードは速いけど振り落とされるような速さではないので、安心して楽しめる。

たまたまホヌがいっぱいいたので、近くで見ることが出来た。
運がいいと言っていたので、中々見ることが出来ないのかも？

他のアクティビティ(カヌーなど)は、数に限りがあるので、順番待ちする必要があるかもしれません。

ただ時間に余裕があったので、そんなに焦る必要はない。

I chose the plan with the banana boat. With about two and a half hours of activity time, I was wondering if it might be too much for just two adults before we started, but that was definitely not the case. We were able to enjoy activities for the entire duration! Especially during snorkeling, I was amazed to see so many fish gathering right in front of me, attracted by the food provided by the staff.
