I participated in a tour that ended in the morning. The weather wasn't very good, and it was a bit chilly, but I didn't feel as cold as I thought I would when I got into the water. During snorkeling, there were many colorful fish, and I encountered a turtle a couple of times. Additionally, a little further away, there was a pod of dolphins, making it a satisfying tour with a variety of experiences in a short time. Next time I come to Hawaii, I would like to recommend it to my friends and participate together.
午前中で終了するツアーでしたので参加してみました。余り良い天候ではなく、少し肌寒い気温でしたが海に入ると思ったより寒く感じませんでした。シュノーケリングでは様々な色の魚がたくさんいて、カメさんにも2度程遭遇デキました。更に少し先の方にはイルカの群れがいてたりと短時間で色々と満足デキたツアーでした。次回、ハワイに来た時には友人達に勧めて一緒に参加したいです。
短時間の海中ですがフィンを使用しての回遊。普段慣れないキック動作ですので結構疲れると思いますので良いトレーニングになりますよ(笑)

We booked the Kaneohe sandbar standard package as we had our 2 year old kid travelling with us. We got to do a bit of everything swim, snorkel, kayak and paddleboard. My son enjoyed his first kayak ride. There is a good deck once u reach the sandbar where we can relax in between activities. The crew were friendly and hospitalable. We enjoyed the music onboard. I would definitely recommend the Kaneohe sandbar experience to anyone visiting Oahu !!!!
Please check the weather and tide timings before you book.

Kaneohe Bay was an unforgettable day on the water! The crew was welcoming and friendly, the music set the perfect vibe, and there were plenty of fun water activities to enjoy. The spacious deck provided a comfortable spot to relax right at the Sandbar, and the snorkeling experience was incredible, with some of the best fish to see up close. Highly recommend!

We had a blast at the sandbar! The boat ride there was fantastic with great music and a fun crew. Once there we got to hop on the Banana Boat w/ Captain Calvin and he really made sure we were comfortable with the speed (thumbs up for faster, shaka for same speed, and thumbs down to slow it up). In addition to that helped setup a ride back to the shuttle spot since my aunt had trouble walking that far. The staff there are the best!
We got lucky and went by some sea turtles while out there on the banana boat. They swam right beneath us!
There was also live music on the boat and it was sooo good. Great songs, great musicians and singers. Wow!
We also got to kayak around and tried the stand-up paddle board for the first time. It was amazing to be out in the ocean surrounded by the beauty of the water and green mountains. It's truly magical, and I hope it stays that way forever. We should all respect it and guard it.
This should be a "must do" when traveling to Oahu!
Definitely recommend getting on the Banana Boats + Raft! It's worth it!

At the beginning of January, there are no sandbars due to the rainy season, and the water is about waist-deep. However, you can enjoy plenty of kayaking, stand-up paddleboarding, and snorkeling. We also tried the banana boat, which was quite intense. The live music on the boat was excellent, and all the staff spoke a bit of Japanese and engaged with us a lot, which made it very enjoyable.
1月初めは雨季のためサンドバーはなく、腰くらいまで水に浸かります。ですがカヤック、SUP、シュノーケリングをたっぷり楽しめます。バナナボートもやりましたが、結構激しめでした。ボートでは生演奏がとても良かったのとスタッフ全員片言の日本語でたくさん話しかけてくれ、とても楽しかったです。
I think it's better to wear your swimsuit since there is only one changing room on the boat. Also, when the boat returns to the harbor, everyone will disperse right away, and there won't be a place to

We took our teenage daughters on this tour. Staff were friendly and the day went smoothly overall. I was very disappointed to see that the staff chum the waters (feed the fish) in order to make this a better snorkel experience for guests. Feeding the fish makes them more aggressive, leads to overpopulation and affect their health.
While we appreciated the live music on board and music played over speakers when in the water, the loud cheesy music on the way home was just too much (Baby Shark, Gangnum Style etc. ) This may appeal to some tourists but just created a very loud experience and took away from our enjoying the natural beauty around us.
The Kaneohe Sandbar is worth visiting, just make sure you this type of experience is right for you b

It was easy to get around since the boat departs from Waikiki. At the snorkeling point, there were turtles that we could see up close. The water off Waikiki was also very clear and beautiful.
Additionally, after snorkeling, we cruised around to the back of Diamond Head, which made it feel like more than just a snorkeling trip. The staff only spoke English, but they provided explanations in Japanese, so even those who are not good at English will be fine!
ワイキキから船が出るので、移動が楽でした。シュノーケルポイントもカメが居て間近で見れました。ワイキキ沖でも水が澄んでいて凄く綺麗でした。
また、シュノーケルの後、ダイヤモンドヘッドの裏位までクルージングしてくれて、ただシュノーケルやってお終いって感じじゃなかったのが良かったです。スタッフは英語だけですが、日本語の説明書きを見せてくれるので、英語が苦手な方でも大丈夫です!
If you're looking to do some quick snorkeling nearby, I recommend this!

It's a short time underwater, but you'll be swimming with fins. Since the kicking motion is not something you're used to, it can be quite tiring, so it's a good workout! (laughs)
