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

Absolutely recommended for first timers to Kaneohe

Reviewed by: Isaac

Great trip and highly recommended. The crew and live music were great and the activities included (paddle board, kayak, snorkel, volleyball) kept me and my wife busy during our time at the sandbar. We also saw live coral and a ton of fish as well as an octopus hiding near the anchor. Definitely a tour anyone should consider if they haven't visited the sandbar before. Having the boat also allowed us to avoid the sun and stay hydrated after the activities, sometime we wouldn't have been able to do if we had kayaked over from the harbor on our own.

Exceeding expectations!

Reviewed by: Florida Travelers

The staff (captain and 2 mates and life guard) were exceptionally helpful. They explained everything, we’re very prompt and watchful. We saw the turtles at Turtle Canyon…AMAZING! I’m so sorry I don’t remember the crew’s names, but suffice it to say, they were excellent. Reviewed safety cautions and had refreshing beverages for the trip home.

Amazing experience

Reviewed by: Look at mi

Kaneohe ocean sports at the sandbar was amazing! We started with either glazed or chocolate donuts with lemonade. When we got to the sandbar they had a variety of activities including kayaking, stand up paddle boarding, volleyball and snorkeling. We loved the snorkeling! They took us to an area of the sandbar that was still shallow enough to stand but had plenty of coral to swim around and explore. Staff was friendly and constantly kept watch over the participants, making this a safe and enjoyable environment. Overall would definitely recommend especially for families

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

Great afternoon excursion

Reviewed by: Romesh

Staff were excellent and I would highly recommend that lunch excursion. We upgraded for the banana boat ride for our granddaughters when checking in. We were offered to ride in the boat so that we could get videos of the girls on the ride.
Water was shallow and bit difficult to snorkel.
Parking is at a premium and I had to wait in the lot until someone pulled out.

This tour exceeded all expectations! The crew was outstanding along with the transport accommodations from hotel to the boat. The musicians aboard were nothing short of amazing. You will leave this tour with seeing some of the most beautiful landscape ever. The equipment was top notch along with a great beach experience with snorkeling, kayaks and volleyball.

Awesome crew!!!

Reviewed by: Mama

All I can say, this group is awesome. We had the sandbar adventure last January 4, 2023. Despite the weather didn’t cooperate, they still made sure that we have a good time. Supposedly it’s a big group, but because it’s raining that day, some parties cancelled their trip while we just want to get over it and don’t want to be back the next day. It turned out to be an awesome adventure for us. My kids still did their banana boat ride and bumpers as well as paddle boarding and snorkeling. And my daughter even had a chance to have duet with my HERO!!! (It’s a long story).
I’m so thankful with them coz my kids really enjoyed this adventure. We all had a good time.

Awesome experience - worth every penny

Reviewed by: Manamana

As everyone else, we wanted to snorkel at Hanauma Bay during our trip to Hawaii. However, the tickets sell within 1 minute and by the time you go to pay, there are no tickets left!!!
So I started looking for other snorkeling locations and discovered this package at Kaneohe sand bar. It had great reviews and they were all true.
The boat was absolutely clean, then crew was amicable and extremely courteous, and the musicians were phenomenal. Really. It was sawesome. Once you hit the sand bar, we went snorkeling, then kayaking and paddle boarding.
The most significant moment was when we were talking to Kai-ia, a very friendly employee that told us the secrets of the locals, and made our experience even richer.
We will definitely book this again in our next trip to Hawaii.
And you should do it too!!!

ハワイ水中スクーター 泳げなくてもOK!シーボブで海底散歩&シュノーケリングクルーズ

Walking in the sea is the best!!! 海中散歩、最高~!!!

Reviewed by: たまちゃん

It was reassuring to have two staff members who spoke Japanese. I was a bit nervous at first because we went further out to sea than I expected, but it makes sense... if the water is shallow, there won't be any fish to see, right? (laughs) I can't swim at all. I even dislike putting my face in the water. But please bear with that. After entering the sea, you'll put on the sea bob. After that, please do the equalization. If you can do that, you're good to go!!! At first, we'll get used to it near the surface, and if everything is fine, we'll dive a little deeper to meet the fish. It's strange to be underwater even though I can't swim. I wish I could have seen a few more types of fish, but that's being greedy... Time flew by, and when we got the signal to go back up, we returned to the boat. Once you're back on the boat, it gets cold with the wind, so please make sure to bring a jacket!!! Since there are other people, you can eat snacks and drink water while waiting. They will take videos and photos, which you can purchase at the end. Don't worry and just enjoy yourself. It became a lifelong memory.
