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

Great experience!

Reviewed by: K Arihara

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 family and I really enjoyed this experience. It was something that could be enjoyed by everybody, those more adventurous or for those who wanted to “chill.” The sandbar they took us to was a beautiful place and the snorkeling location was awesome. We saw different fish and even had a surreal experience swimming by sea turtles. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!

I was able to see a manta ray. マンタにも会えました

Reviewed by: ひろ玉くん

The weather was mostly cloudy, but it hardly rained. The contrast between the white sandbar and the surrounding sea was beautiful. At the turtle point, I encountered many sea turtles, and they were adorable. A little further away, there were a few manta rays, and everyone was excited to see manta rays during the day, which is quite rare! Of course, I was too! This was my second time at the sandbar, and although I haven't experienced perfectly clear weather yet, just being able to see the beautiful contrast of the sea is soothing for the soul!

天気は、曇りがちでしたが雨になることはほぼなく
サンドバーの白さと周りの海の色のコントラストがきれいでした。
ウミガメにポイントでは、たくさんのウミガメにも出会えて
かわいかったです。
少し、離れたところでは、数匹のマンタレイも居て
めったに見ることがない昼間のマンタに皆さん興奮してましたね！
もちろん、私も！！
今回で2度目のサンドバーですが、なかなか快晴！！

I thought we were going to an island, but it turned out to be a shallow area in the sea. It was a very mysterious place where you can enjoy various marine sports, and they teach you how to do them and how to ride, so it's reassuring. The donuts were delicious, and it was perfect!

We had a wonderful experience. The staff on our boat was very welcoming and friendly. My niece said the staff of Capt Allen were very attentive as well when they were in the water. Kudos/ mahalo to Capt Ruben for assisting us to snorkel especially since we (me n my sis in law) don't know how to swim. Our driver was energetic and friendly. He even stopped at Leonards bakery for us and made awesome food recommendations on the way. We had an overall great experience! We look forward to coming again.

Beautiful scenery, super kind staff, wonderful music. Tried kayak, snorkel and it was so fun. Water was so clear, I could see fish so close it was beautiful. Only thing is the time could be longer. We got to the sandbar about 9:30 and left around 12pm. I wish I could have more time so I could try other activities like volleyball and paddle board. The boat was full with over 100 people but didn’t feel like it was packed. Especially when we got to the sandbar, people were more spread out. Overall, the tour was way better than expected and definitely want to do it again!! Thank you!

I had an experience that felt like a different world! 別世界みたいな体験を楽しめた‼︎

Reviewed by: ロッキー

I was picked up by a large bus near my hotel in Waikiki and arrived at Heeia Harbor (which apparently was one of the filming locations for Pirates of the Caribbean) in just under an hour, where I boarded one of the catamarans. From there, Yukiko, a staff member from Japan, provided a thorough and reassuring guide. First, we arrived at a sandbar and practiced snorkeling in the shallow waters with white sand. In the background, we could see Kualoa Ranch, used in the filming of Jurassic Park, and Chinaman's Hat, with Yukiko taking plenty of photos against this backdrop. After playing for a while, it was lunchtime. The BBQ-style hamburgers were delicious, and eating them on the sunlit boat was the best! After the meal, the boat moved to a spot where we could see sea turtles. We encountered quite a few sea turtles and manta rays before heading to the final point. Snorkeling around a coral hill the size of a soccer field was a bit daunting for me, but I saw many fish underwater. I heard there are sea turtle nests here, but I didn't get to see them. After snorkeling, we received warm drinks and returned to port. Looking back, it felt like it went by in a flash, but I was able to experience so many new things! I enjoyed the pleasant breeze and the blue sky with the Hawaiian flag fluttering on the boat. I'm really glad I participated in this tour!

ワイキキのホテル近くで大きなバスにピックアップしてもらって1時間弱でHeei’wa(?)のハーバー(パイレーツオブカリビアンのロケ場所の一つだったらしい)に到着してカタマランの一つに乗船。ここから先は日本スタッフのユキコさんが丁寧に案内してくれて安心。まずサンドバーに到着して白砂の浅瀬でシュノーケリングの練習。後ろにはジュラシックパークの撮影で使われたクアロアランチやチャイナマンズハットが見えて、これをバックにユキコさんがバンバン写真を撮ってくれる。暫く遊んだ後はランチタイム。BBQ仕立てのハンバーガーは香ばしくて日光が降り注ぐボートの上で食べるの最高！食事の後ボートは海亀が見れるポイントへ移動。結構な数の海亀とマンタに出会えて、いよいよ最後のポイントへ。サッカーグラウンドほどの広さがある珊瑚の丘の周りをシュノーケリングするのは初めての自分にはちょっと勇気がいったけど水中には沢山の魚が見れた。ここには海亀の巣穴もあるらしいけど会えなかった。シュノーケリング終えて温かい飲み物をもらって帰港。振り返ってみるとあっという間だったけど、いろんな(しかも初めて！)体験ができて、海風にたなびくボートに掲げられたハワイの旗をなびかせる心地よい風と青い空を楽しめて最高！このツアーに参加して良かった‼︎

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.

Reviewed by: Angela

Luna, Alex, Evan and Capt. Eric (All the crew) were terrific, super friendly and overall helpful. It was such a enjoyable, fun, memorable experience especially if you are booking this with kids. The only thing is to make sure that you bring snacks or food aboard which they inform you about on their instructions as they only provide light snacks (protein bars, water, and lemonade)

Lastly, it can get really crowded on the boat. And so, check in as early as possible to secure your spot inside the boat especially if you are traveling with your family.

The sea and scenery are incredibly beautiful, and I encountered sea turtles. 超綺麗な海と景色海亀との遭遇

Reviewed by: カープ大好きfamily

I was a bit anxious about whether the pickup location was correct since it was also the trolley bus stop and a pickup point for other tours, but I felt reassured when a staff member wearing a T-shirt that said "Angel's Sea" came to greet us.

The boat had a mix of Japanese and other nationalities, but we had a Japanese guide who provided all the explanations in Japanese, which was great. Angel's Sea was incredibly beautiful—like a different world. Standing in the middle of the ocean and being able to walk around was amazing! The weather was nice, and the contrast between the sea, mountains, and sky was stunning. Playing beach volleyball at Angel's Sea was a lot of fun. Later, during the sea turtle watching, we were able to see many sea turtles, and a manta ray even came close to the boat.

The highlight was definitely the last snorkeling session, where I encountered sea turtles and was able to swim with them. I was a bit nervous since it was my first time snorkeling, but the guide at Angel's Sea provided a briefing, and we practiced breathing and swimming, so it was fine. Even a toddler who was crying during practice was amazed by the beautiful coral and fish once we actually went snorkeling. Even if you think you can't do it, I recommend trying to get in the water just to see, as you’ll be wearing a life jacket.

On the way back, there’s time to change on the boat, so bringing a wrap towel for kids allows for changing on the deck. The air conditioning on the bus was very strong, so I think it’s better to change. The hamburger for lunch was the best one I had during this stay, as they grilled the patty right on the boat!

ピックアップ場所がトロリーバス乗り場でもあり又他のツアーのピックアップ場所でもあり此処で良いのか？と不安でしたが、天使の海と日本語で書かれたTシャツを着たスタッフが迎えに来てくれた時には安心しました。

The guide in Caprun is incredibly fun. キャプルンのガイドが激しく楽しい

Reviewed by: R&S

When we got on the tour bus, we had a very talkative guide. Of course, he spoke only in English. He introduced himself as "Captain," so I thought he was both the driver and the boss of the boat, but when I asked for his name again when we got off, it turned out to be "Caplun" (laughs).

Anyway, he introduced us to the restaurant while heading to our destination. According to him, the top recommendation is malasadas, followed by poke bowls, and then loco moco. He kept insisting that malasadas are the best (laughs). He also mentioned that having yakitori with beer is the best, which made me think that no matter the country, older men seem to enjoy the same things. I dozed off a bit and before I knew it, we arrived at our destination.

Since there was no place to change on the boat, we promised to wear our swimsuits underneath and quickly stripped down to head into the sea!

Originally, sandbars appear in areas where the tide goes in and out, but this time, due to high tide, the water was up to our waists. The clarity of the water was absolutely amazing.

While many people were playing and swimming in the shallow areas, the best spots to see marine life were a bit deeper with coral. One gentleman was trying hard to hold onto a float and keep up with us but gave up halfway.

We continued on. While we could see to some extent with our eyes, the sand and possibly plankton made it hard to see beyond about 7 meters.

Unfortunately, we didn't get to see any honu (sea turtles), and feeling a bit down, our Japanese-speaking guide said we still had time to take a break and try again! He mentioned that since the wind was picking up, it would be better to stay a little closer to shore.

We returned to the boat, but by this point, my body was starting to get cold. In fact, it felt warmer in the water, but I was tempted by snacks and returned to the boat.

We were able to enjoy free drinks like coffee, canned juice, apples, and snacks. About the Cheetos, they actually taste a bit different from the ones in Japan. The American version has a stronger cheddar flavor and is saltier, making it quite addictive (laughs).

I was so cold that I wrapped myself in a pool towel while eating (laughs). Once I settled down a bit on the boat, we tried again!

The second time, the water felt colder. I had brought fins, so I was able to swim quite easily, but my wife said she didn't need them, and I think she probably used up a lot of energy...

After swimming back and forth in the coral area a couple of times, someone on the boat shouted, "There it is! A sea turtle!" We dashed over and got our cameras ready! The weather was great, but I couldn't see the display! The water was quite murky, but I pressed the shutter anyway!!!

Both my wife and I were able to see the wild honu clearly. They say the sea god brings good fortune, so I hope something good happens!

Our excitement skyrocketed, and we were instructed to return as we had only five minutes left. After getting back on the boat, we left the sandbar.

Finally, we took a picture of the beautiful scenery.

When we returned to shore, our high-energy guide Caplun handed us a business card for ordering malasadas online (laughs). He really loves them!

Then we headed to Leonard's for the second time on this trip. It was indeed delicious, so we bought more. We were instructed not to eat in the car but outside, so I asked if it was okay to take it home. He passionately insisted, "Hot is the best! Trust me!!" (laughs). When I mentioned that I had already tried the original malasada here the other day, he smiled widely and said, "Well, that's good! OK, OK."

On our way back, it started to rain again, and we saw a rainbow. Is it really this heavy during a downpour?

Then it was time to get off near our hotel. I told Caplun that his introduction was very entertaining and gave him a tip, ending the tour!

Back in our room, I had chocolate, and my wife had custard, sharing a bite each. The order was 1. Original, 2. Cho

ツアーバスに乗ると、なんともよく喋るガイドさん。もちろん英語のみ。キャプテンと言っていたので、運転手兼船のボスかと思っていましたが、帰りの下車時に再度お名前を聞いたら、キャプルンさんでした（笑）
とにかく、レストランの、紹介をしながら目的地へ。
彼いわく1番はマラサダ。2番はポケ丼。3番目がロコモコ。
とにかくマラサダかうまいと何回も推してました（笑）
焼き鳥片手にビールも最高みたいなこと言ってたのでどの国もおっさんの好きなものは一緒なのかと思いつつうたた寝をしていたら目的地へ。

ボートの中では着替える場所がないので下に水着を着てくる約束で、素早く脱ぎ捨ていざ海へ！

もともとサンドバーは潮の満ち引きで砂場が現れる地帯ですが、今回は満潮のため腰までしっかり水が。
透明度は素晴らしくクリアでした。

多くの方が浅瀬で遊んで泳いでるところ、生き物がたくさん見れるポイントはやや深くサンゴがあるところです。
1名オジサマが頑張って浮きに掴んで付いてこられてましたが途中で断念。

私達は続行。目視だとある程度は見えますが、砂埃やプランクトンかな？7m程度先は見えなくなります。

残念ながらホヌ様に会えずしょんぼりしていたら、日本語のできるガイドさんが、まだ時間があるので休憩して再チャレンジしていいよ！
今は風が強くなってきてるから少し開けたほうが良いとのこと。

一度船に戻るんですが、このあたりで身体が、冷えだす。むしろ海に浸かっていたほうが暖かったのですが、お菓子につられて一度帰還。

コーヒー等の飲み物や缶ジュース、りんごにお菓子はフリーで頂けました。
チートスについて、実は日本のとは少し味が違う。アメリカのはチェダーっぽさが強く塩っ気が強めなのでかなり中毒性があります（笑）

私は寒くてプールタオルをかぶって食事（笑）
ボート上で少し体が落ち着いたところで再度チャレンジ！

2回目のほうが海が冷たく感じました。
私はフィンも持参していたため、結構楽に泳げましたが、妻は要らないとのことでしたがおそらくかなり体力を消費したことかと…

そしてサンゴ地帯2往復くらいしたら、ボートからあそこにいるよ！シータートルだ！！と声が！！ダッシュでかけつけカメラを準備！
天気が良くてディスプレイは見えない！
水もかなり濁ってしまっているがとりあえずシャッター！！！

妻も私も肉眼でしっかり野生のホヌ様にお会いできました。成功へ導いてくれるといわれる海の神様。良いことが起きるといいなぁ。

ふたりともテンションが跳ね上がって残り5分だから戻ってと指示を受け、船へ戻ってからサンドバーをあとにします。

最後に良い景色をパシャリ。

岸へ戻ると、またもやハイテンションのキャプルンさん。
マラサダのオンラインオーダーの名刺を渡してくれました（笑）どんだけ好きやねん。

そして今回の旅2回目のレナーズへ。確かに美味しかったのでまた買いました。
車の中では食べないで外で食べてくれと指示が出ていたので、持ち帰りしてもよいか？と聞くと
ホットが一番うまい！トラストミー！！と熱弁（笑）実は先日ここでオリジナルマラサダを食べたから知ってるよというとめっちゃニコニコで、それならいいんだ！OKOKと。

そして帰路に雨がまたもや降り、なんと虹が。
スコールってこんなに降るもんなのか？

そしてホテル周辺で降りる時がきて、キャプルンにイントロダクションがとても面白かったとおつたえしてチップをお渡ししツアー終了！

部屋に戻り私はチョコ、妻はカスタードを食べ一口ずつ分け合いましたが
1.オリジナル　2チョコ　3カスタードの順でした。カスタードは独特な香りがします。
チョコはかなり濃厚で少しビター。シナモンシュガーが使われていました。

英語のみのツアーでしたが日本語ができる方もいたので助かりました！
でも皆さんフランクでとても楽しいツアーでした！次はホヌさんもっと近くでみたいなぁ！！
