It seems that sandbars appear depending on the season or time of day. When we went in late March during the day, it was just a regular shallow sea. There was live music on the cruise, which made us feel like we were in America! The activities were also fun. It seems essential to bring a jacket or a change of clothes, as it was quite cold.
サンドバーは時期?か時間帯により砂浜が現れるようです。
私たちが行った3月下旬の昼は普通に浅い海でした。
クルーズないで生演奏がありアメリカを感じられます!
アクティビティも楽しかったです。
上着や着替えは必須に思えます。
結構寒かったです。

Crew was great, my family really enjoyed it. Lots of fish to see, my wife seen a turtle and really liked the experience. If you’re not a strong swimmer or out of shape I would suggest not booking. I found swimming against the current hard but my wife and daughter are stronger swimmers than me and had an easier time.

I had a very precious experience snorkeling at the sandbar for the first time, swimming alongside sea turtles. It was a bit cold because it was cloudy, and the beach wasn't visible, so I want to try again when it's sunny and during low tide.
初めてのサンドバーでシュノーケリングでは海亀と併走して泳いだりととても貴重な体験をしました。
曇りだったので少し寒かったのと砂浜が出てなかったので晴れで干潮の時にまたリベンジしたいです

Wow! To start. They picked us up at our hotel to start. Then drive us to Kaneohe sandbar. Next a beautiful short boat ride to two barges loaded with sea toys. Beautiful shallow sandy beaches that are user friendly for small children to seniors. The reef snorkeling is easy, very well guided and watched in smaller groups. We swam with turtles. Captain Danny went out of his way to share local marine knowledge and make sure all got to see turtles. This was our second time- we also sent our daughter and grandchild. They immediately fell in love with the tour and friendly crew. They are like family to us now. We will always come and swim with the turtles only with Captain Bruce's Team.
We have tried others and this family prefers and highly recommends Captain Bruce's based on experience. I am a former diver for the Seattle Aquarium, researcher for Washington State Department of Fisheries, Rescue Diver, Assistant Dive Instructor Advanced Open Water and lastly Alaska Department of Fish and Game. Simply said "Captain Bruce's does it right". I send my grandkids there Thank you Captain Bruce's! We love you!!! My only request is that you start another tour a bit more advanced for experienced snorkelers.
Then sign up this family
Aloha and thank you so much for taking the time to write this wonderful review and the compliments of yours.
We're very pleased to hear the whole family is having such a great time at the sandbar.

I’m so glad we booked this excursion during our 2 day whirlwind tour of Oahu. We have a friend that’s on the island so we came over from vacationing on Maui to visit. Check in was super easy. The boat was clean and well kept and the crew was amazing. Loved the live music on the journey to and from the sandbar. Once we arrived, there was a little something for everyone. Paddleboarding, kayaking, hanging out on a floating platform or snorkeling! They even had inner-tubing and banana boat rides for an extra fee. The views of the island were stunning. Trip lasted roughly 3 hours so plenty of time to still explore the island after. Shout out to Preston and Jesse for all the aloha and good vibes. It was a super fun trip and we highly recommend to anyone visiting Oahu. It’s a really great excursion.
We appreciated your time for this review, kind words for our crew, and so happy to know that you had fun. Mahalo! - Team KBOS

Everything in the title and description is not only accurate, but does not disappoint! Festive and fun the whole time... beautiful setting with the smaller islands and mountains surroundings, standing a mile off shore in the middle of the bay. Nice touch having the floating lounge, and thoughtful idea providing fish treats for snorkeling(!) The music Jessie and crew played on board, and DJ-ed during activities was awesome--so much fun dancing with the fish! We only wish could have had more than one go of the banana boat and bumper tube. Worth doing more than once on a trip here, definetly--almost tried walking in backward when we were leaving

My husband and I took our family to Hawaii for spring break. We always at the kids do something different. I thought they might be hesitant, but they tried The banana boat and the bumper boat and loved it, probably one of the most fun things they did on this trip. The only thing I would say I was disappointed about this excursion was that the description said they will provide soda or coke with lunch but we got lemonade instead. The bathroom on the boat also needs to be restocked before taking the next ride out. There were no soaps or hand sanitizer to use. Besides this, we had such a fun time.
We appreciated your time for this review and sorry to hear that you had a disappointing about drink and bathroom. Your feedback has been shared with our crew. Mahalo! - Team KBOS

Unfortunately, the sandbar was not visible, but we were able to see turtles while snorkeling, and the kids were delighted. During this time of year, the water temperature is low, so it was cold. However, it was great to try stand-up paddleboarding for the first time, and once we got on the boat, we could enjoy warm drinks, which helped us warm up!
残念ながら、サンドバーは出ていませんでしたが、シュノーケリングで亀が見れて、子供達は喜んでいました。この時期、水温が低いので、寒かったです。でも、初めてSUPをやったり、船に上がったら温かい飲み物も飲めて、身体も温まり、良かったです!

Upon going to the sandbar for the first time, I decided to give Captain Bob's Kaneohe Bay a try. So glad I did because I had an amazing time on this cruise. All of the employees were super nice and made sure everyone felt safe & comfortable on the cruise. The sandbar was absolutely stunning! The crew set up a volleyball net which allowed for all of us to have a fun match of beach volleyball at the sandbar. Those that didn't want to participate were able to walk around the sandbar at their leisure. I enjoyed that this cruise was away from all of the other cruises and boats in the area. It was like we had our own secluded little area. The food was delicious and afterwards we cruised over to a reef area to snorkel. Along the way, the captain went slow to make sure we got a chance to see all of the sea turtles floating on the surface of the ocean. We saw so many of them! The area we snorkeled in was amazing. I saw so many different kinds of fish and several sea turtles that literally swim right next to us. I had an amazing time and photos to last a lifetime. If you are thinking about doing a cruise to the sandbar, look no further. Would absolutely go again!

It was raining heavily and cold, but I was able to see the honu! The driver who picked us up to the boat and the staff on the boat were very kind. Thanks to someone who could speak Japanese, they provided detailed guidance on points to be careful with small children and played with them in the sea, making it a truly enjoyable time! Even in the rain, we were able to see into the water, and when the honu swam by, we could see it up close! Since my children, aged 3 and 7, can't swim, we rented a special boat. Thanks to the boat, everyone was able to see the honu and was very happy! Drinks and snacks were free, which was a great service for the kids who got a little hungry!

From the moment we were picked up near the hotel and dropped off at it, this was a class 1 experience. Everyone made sure we had a great experience. We were a party of 7 ranging from 81years old to 12. We all rode the banana boats, thrilling! One of us fell off (not the 81 y/o) and was retrieved. The float ride was thrilling our 12 y/o said. The water is clear, the fish ample and snorkels provided along with advice for best viewing. The musicians were outstanding, the fellow passengers getting in the groove and dancing. Whole experience a lifetime memory.
