I attended this cruise with my mother and grandmother, and we all had an absolute blast! The crew members were extremely kind and personally assisted my mother and grandmother throughout the entire snorkeling experience. The music was also such a nice touch, and I loved the energy. Definitely recommend this experience to anyone visiting the area! Busing from Waikiki only takes about an hour or so.

My friend and I had an amazing time. We actually live in Oahu but wanted to do something fun. We were not disappointed! Staff was friendly and attentive. They had local musicians play on our way to and from the sandbar. Lunch was served as soon as we settled in. Ham&turkey croissants, variety of chips and fresh pineapple. So many activities to do, kayaking, SUP, volleyball and staff throwing football around. I tried SUP for the first time. The staff was on hand to give us direction/instructions. They had a life guard on the sandbar at all time.
I cannot wait to have friends visit so I can take them on this excursion.

I was a little hesitant when I initially booked this, just because of the price. But, WOW I was wrong. Such a great experience, the boys on the boat were great to work with and knowledgeable. Drinks were great and just what you want after swimming in the ocean. Would 100% recommend. Thanks for a great time!

This might have been the highlight of my trip. I don't normally like tourist excursions, but this is something I'd be willing to shell money out for. The staff was so nice, welcoming, and caring. The live entertainment was amazing. I hope they're available to do weddings, because they were really talented. It was such an unexpected cherry on top. I loved the diversity of activities available as opposed to having to kayak out to the sandbar, because then you're limited to just one activity. The food wasn't anything to write home about, but the pre-cut pineapple slices were juicy, delicious, and a great snack to have. Anyway, my friends and I have already decided we would probably book again in the future. The sandbar itself is beautiful out there, but going out on a boat makes it a lot more fun. Unsure about the snorkeling aspect b/c would prefer to do that activity elsewhere, so not sure if anyone saw anything.

What a great experience! Our group had two people in their thirties and two in their sixties and everyone had a blast. We saw so many turtles, a few schools of fish and some other unique fish around. Great tour for those wanting to try snorkeling. The staff was amazing too! Although we didn't have kids in our group, the staff was interacting great with those family groups aboard with us.

Living ocean tours is a great family business that created a great experience for our group of first time snorkelers. The 5 person crew was friendly, knowledgeable and helped us have a fun and safe trip on the water. We were able to see multiple turtles including one that came up about 10 feet away from us. Also, plenty of fish to see in between turtle sightings. Plus we got to see a pod of dolphins when we first arrived at the reef.

All that was promised was not fulfilled on this snorkel tour. The staff was nice. I got a little sea sick and they took care of me. But the experience was nothing like what they promised. It was a party boat not a snorkel tour. I would not recommend to any families.

This experience was amazing.The pick up location was super easy to find. Staff were so funny and friendly. We got out in the water and the staff swam with us to lead us to the turtles. We saw so many sea turtles. I definitely recommend doing this at least once in your lifetime.I'd love to do this again on my next trip to Oahu!

You may find a lot of tour to the sandbar but none compares to these guys. They are fun, customer-oriented, careful and outgoing, all at the same time. You are taken care of right from the moment you checkin with them at the harbour till they drop you back. They have plenty of lifeguards, people helping you in the water, teaching you kayaking/paddle boating/snorkelling/banana boating etc.
BONUS: great donuts and live music. A MUST DO IN OAHU.

My boyfriend and I did this excursion on a Thursday morning. There were less than 10 people on the excursion. It was very intimate and all of the staff were outstanding. We snorkeled, canoed, stand up paddle boarded, and soaked up the sun. It was a great experience and the highlight of our trip. The sandbar was stunning and we also saw a turtle while snorkeling.

Our group of 5 had an amazing time. The crew was attentive, interactive, and fun! The live music was absolutely beautiful and when they were not singing, the music selections were great. The only issue we had was that we wanted to go again the following day but they were closed. 10 out 10 experience and the price was very reasonable.

This was the highlight of our brief stay in Hawaii. My only regret is not having done this sooner. And after having experienced it, I can’t wait to do it again when I come back to Oahu. I love snorkeling, but two of the things that I was apprehensive about were deep waters and catamaran rides because I sometimes get motion sickness. But the catamaran ride and the live music were so smooth, I enjoyed the ride. The singers had amazing voices, and their island songs put everyone in a relaxed mood. The crew were very informative and helpful, even the most novice person felt at ease. We swam in deep waters, but I felt safe because a crew member was always nearby and kept a close eye on everyone. I didn’t get to see more that one giant turtle who was luckily resting at the time; otherwise, I probably wouldn’t have seen any. But I still had a great time seeing fishes, paddle boarding, kayaking, and just relaxing in the calm waters. Thank you for a wonderful experience!
