Must Do in Hawaii!

Reviewed by: Briana

My boyfriend and I visited Honolulu for a week to celebrate my 30th birthday. With so much to do on the island, it can be overwhelming to choose the right excursions, especially if you’re only there a few days. This was hands-down the most fun thing we did the ENTIRE trip! The crew and captain were so accommodating and cool. It’s definitely worth the extra cost to do the banana boat or tube ride ;-)

The awesome crew, live music and activity options for the sandbar make this perfect for solo travelers, couples or even families. Do not hesitate to book!

Waikiki Guided Beach Snorkeling Tour for Beginners with FREE Photos & Videos

gentle introduction to snorkeling with excellent instructor

Reviewed by: Zai

We heard we had to try snorkeling on our first trip to Hawaii but neither of us are super-confident swimmers, especially not in the ocean. If that sounds like you, START HERE. This snorkeling experience ended up being just right for two reasons 1) excellent instructor, Zola and 2) excellent location, Magic Island Lagoon. I was excited to try snorkeling, but when it came time to put the mask on, stick my face in the water, and breathe - I couldn't do it. After patient and friendly coaching from Zola, I was finally floating around and breathing under water. I owe it to Zola that I felt ready to sign up for another, more challenging, snorkeling tour later in the week where I got to see more fish and turtles. The location is this peaceful, blue and beautiful lagoon that's protected from the ocean's strongest waves by a barrier. The water is clear and just lovely to swim in. I would go back just to enjoy the beach.

The activities are plentiful! アクティビティが充実！

Reviewed by: CHARA山

This time, I participated in the afternoon. The reason is that the sandbar can be seen during low tide, and when I checked the time, it turned out that the afternoon was the best time that day. However, the beach did not appear (laughs). It seems that timing is really important, and even during low tide, if the season is different, the beach may not be accessible (what a shame).

However, regardless of that, this tour allows you to enjoy activities as long as time permits. You can play as much as you want with activities like stand-up paddleboarding, kayaking, snorkeling, and beach volleyball! In particular, snorkeling was great because it was at a point where many fish gather around the coral reef, which I think was much better compared to other beaches.

The beach itself is white, so when the water level goes down to a certain extent, you can enjoy activities in a very beautiful place. It was the perfect spot for enjoying the scenery while engaging in activities in the sea!

今回は、午後に参加しました。というのも、サンドバーが見られるのが干潮の時ということで、時間を確認したところ、その日は午後が一番良かったからです。
が、砂浜は現れず笑
というのも、本当にタイミングが大事なようで、干潮のタイミングでも季節が違うと砂浜に上がってというのができないようです。（残念）

しかし、関係なしに、このツアーではアクティビティが時間の許す限り楽しめます。SAP、カヤック、シュノーケリング、ビーチバレーなど遊び放題！特にシュノーケリングはサンゴ礁に魚がたくさん集まるポイントで、これは他のビーチに比べてもとても良かったと思える点です。

砂浜自体は白いので、水位がある程度下がれば、とても綺麗な場所でアクティビティを楽しむことができるので、景色を楽しみつつ、海でのアクティビティには最高の場所でした！

Amazing Way To End Vacation

Reviewed by: Trevor Cully

This was the best way to cap off our O'ahu vacation by having a relaxing snorkel, a crazy banana boat ride, easy paddle boarding and just chilling in the ocean surrounded by some of the most gorgeous scenery you could find anywhere. The crew were fantastic and so friendly, they were patient with everyone and even got to chat with Preston about him moving from Mesa, AZ (we're from Scottsdale, AZ). If we are ever in O'ahu again, we are absolutely doing this as it was so fun an easy and one of the most enjoyable things we did while on the island. Definitely worth our money and time - give them a try, you won't be disappointed.

The best staff! 最高のスタッフ！

Reviewed by: ぐっさん

I used this during my honeymoon. Some of the staff communicated with me in Japanese and provided explanations in Japanese, which was very kind of them. The continuous music created a wonderful atmosphere as well.

Regarding what to bring... For the bus transfer, it was fine to go in my swimsuit, but it's better to have something to change into for the return trip. A towel would also be great. If you're wet, the bus seats will get wet, and more importantly, the air conditioning is quite strong, so it can get really cold.

ハネムーン中に利用しました。
何人かのスタッフの方が日本語でコミュニケーションをとってくれたり、英語の説明を日本語でしてくださったりして、凄く親切でした。
またずっと音楽を奏でてくれるので素敵な時間も過ごせました。
持ち物に関してですが…
バス送迎は行きは水着でいけましたが、帰りは何か着替えるものを持っていった方がいいです。タオルもあれば◎
濡れたままだとバスの椅子が濡れてしまいますし、何より冷房ガンガンなので凍えます。

It was very beautiful! とってもきれいでした！

Reviewed by: Maru

The cruise ship was large, with many tables arranged inside and a small stage as well. We were guided to our seats by the staff. While we were on our way to the sandbar, we enjoyed lovely music played with a ukulele, guitar, and singing.

The water level at the sandbar changes with the tides, so if you have the time, it might be a good idea to check the tide conditions in advance. We signed up at the last minute, so we didn’t check beforehand, but on the morning of our visit, the water level was about waist-deep. In some areas, it was deep enough to reach shoulder height, but even so, the clear water was beautifully colored and truly stunning.

You can freely enjoy SUP, kayaking, and snorkeling. However, there are a limited number of SUPs and kayaks, so if others are using them and they are not available, you may have to wait. We tried SUP for the first time, and it was a bit difficult to balance, and with the ocean current, it was quite challenging to go in the direction we intended. But it was a lot of fun.

One thing to be careful about is the red buoys, which indicate where you should not go beyond. If you get too close, we were told to sit down and paddle back on the SUP or to get out and walk back if you were in a kayak.

For snorkeling, we swam in an area with coral reefs, and since the water was shallow, we were able to see the fish up close. They were so beautiful that we could have watched them for a long time.

The lounge floating on the sea was also a photogenic spot. At the sandbar, you can spend your time freely until it's time to go, so when we got cold, we returned to the ship to wrap ourselves in towels and enjoyed some orange juice and donuts.

There was one men's restroom and two women's restrooms on board, which was convenient. All the staff members were bright, cheerful, and wonderful people. There was also one Japanese staff member, so I think you don’t have to worry if you're anxious about your English.

On the way back, we left the sandbar while listening to music and returned to the port. It became a very lovely memory. We had so much fun. Thank you, everyone!

クルーズ船は大きくて、中はたくさんテーブルが並んでいて、小さなステージもありました。場所はスタッフの方に案内されて座りました。サンドバーに着くまでの間、ウクレレとギターと歌で素敵な音楽を聞くことができました。
サンドバーは潮の満ち引きによって水位が変わるので、余裕があれば、あらかじめ潮の状態を調べておくといいかもしれません。私たちは直前に申し込んだので調べていきませんでしたが、私たちが行った日の午前中は水位が腰くらいまでありました。場所によっては肩くらいまで深さがありましたが、それでも、透き通った水でとてもきれいな色をしていて、本当に美しかったです。
SUPやカヤック、シュノーケリングは自由にすることができます。SUPとカヤックに関しては個数が限られているので、他の方が使っていてその場にない場合は待たないといけないと思います。私たちは初めてSUPに挑戦しましたが、バランスを取るのが少し難しく、海水の流れもあるので思った方向に進むのがなかなか難しかったです。でもとても楽しかったです。
注意しなければならないのは、赤いブイがあるので、その先には行かないということです。そこの近くまで行ってしまったら、SUPでは座って戻ったり、カヤックの場合は降りて歩いて戻ったりするように言われました。
シュノーケリングでは、珊瑚礁がある場所で泳ぎましたが、こちらも水深が浅いので、近くで魚たちを見ることができました。とてもきれいで、ずっと見ていられるくらいでした。
海に浮かぶラウンジもフォトジェニックな場所でした。
サンドバーでは時間まで自由に過ごすことができるので、体が冷えたら船内に戻ってタオルにくるまったり、オレンジジュースやドーナツをいただいたりしました。
船内に男子トイレは1つ、女子トイレは2つあったので、トイレに行けるのもよかったです。
スタッフのみなさんが明るく陽気で素敵な方ばかりでした。また、日本人のスタッフさんも1人いらっしゃったので、英語に不安があっても心配いらないと思います。
帰りも音楽を聞きながらサンドバーをあとにし、港へ戻りました。
とても素敵な思い出になりました。すごく楽しかったです。みなさん、ありがとうございました。

We had such a unique experience going to the SandBar. It was like having our own little beach area. They provided lunch in our package. Live music was played during our boat ride there and back. They provided kayaks, paddle boards, life vests and snorkel gear. They were a fun crew and i can tell they enjoy working together. They were eager to help teach about Hawaiian culture and boat safety. It was one of the trip highlights and i would highly recommend to anyone to do it. Just be mindful of the tide as certain times the tide can be very high to your chest or low to your knees.

My daughter Crystal and I went to the Kaneohe sandbar on July 26. Although it started with a little rain, it didn't damper (pun intended, lol) our adventure. We were greeted by a great team on board the catamaran. Especially Jesse, such a wonderful guy. He and another band member sang and played great music to and from the sandbar. Everyone were such fun and really made us feel special. We celebrated Crystal's birthday. We even were surprised with a private tender boat ride to go see a beautiful sea turtle very close to our boat. So fantastic! Thank you all for a unforgettable day.
