Captain Bob's Kaneohe Sandbar Snorkel & BBQ Lunch with Free Transportation

Highly recommend, kid and family friendly.

Reviewed by: Jp, 2024/04/15

Had a great time the crew was so friendly and helped to take pictures and even played volleyball with the group. The boat was very nice as well lots of seating and a restroom on it. Lunch was good burgers were tasty overall the only down fall was no cold water after the first like 15 min. So I would suggest bringing and insulated bottle thats filled. Would for sure recommend and do it again!

Waikiki Friday Fireworks Tour aboard Three Tiki Sailing Catamaran

Our vacation ended with Fireworks!!

Reviewed by: Jackie, 2024/04/15

The best way to end our Mother Daughter vacation is with a sunset & fireworks on the water!
Three Tiki did a great job reassuring our experience even though the weather was not great. Captain Mark? did a great job sailing and keeping us safe and mostly dry! LOL
The crew was great from start to finish. Friendly and accommodating they provided a cooler and ice for our BYOB.
The location was easy to find and had a great staging area with food trucks and firepits that were great after our cruise.
Overall, very happy with our experience and will definitely refer others to enjoy a memorable evening with Three Tikis

Captain Bob's Kaneohe Sandbar Snorkel & BBQ Lunch with Free Transportation

Such a fun day!

Reviewed by: Jen F., 2024/04/13

This was by far the best cruise excursion I have ever participated in, and I’ve done quite a few on Oahu.

Pickup was well organized and on time. The ride out to the boat was pleasant.
The crew in itself felt like family. They were the nicest people, very welcoming and knowledgeable.
Captain even jumped in the water with the kids and everyone went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed. Bbq lunch was great.
We saw manta rays and turtles that came right up to the boat,it was a really wonderful day and I can’t tell them thank you enough.
I will absolutely book this again next time we visit.

Waikiki's Most Affordable Turtle Snorkel Boat Tour - Mana Kai Catamaran

Friendly crew and so much marine life

Reviewed by: Andrea, 2024/04/12

The snorkeling was such a blast we saw several turtles and a ton of fish. The crew were such a pleasure to be around every one of them was nice, knowledgeable and friendly. The boat was small but that was the best part because then we had a much more intimate experience and were able to feel comfortable with our crew(not hard they were all so nice). We were out for over an hour but could hang out on the boat and reenter the water whenever we felt like. The boat had a nylon strap front you could sit on and get wet which we did on our way back to shore after the snorkeling. It was a great relaxing and fun time. Definitely would recommend this company because the price is great, the crew was amazing and the trip was not overly packed.

Reviewed by: Kathy, 2024/04/12

If you're considering this cruise I highly recommend you book it. The day we went out the weather wasn't the greatest however, the crew more than made up for that. They are fun, engaging and knowledgable. We had a blast the entire day. Lunch was really good and we had a very enjoyable time!

Captain Bruce Kaneohe Sandbar Cruise with SUP, Guided Snorkel & Transportation

10/10 experience

Reviewed by: Joseph, 2024/04/11

Had an amazing time with Captain Bruce on the Kaneohe sand bar cruise! From the get-go, Jeff, Josiah, and Karen were super kind and welcoming, making sure everyone on board felt at ease. They had snacks and drinks ready for us, which was a nice touch.

One of the highlights for me was definitely swimming with the turtles. It’s not every day you get to do that! And I’ve got to give a special shoutout to Karen. She was a real star, especially with my mom who's a bit uneasy in the water. Karen made sure she felt safe and enjoyed her snorkeling experience. Plus, the way she helped us retrieve my dad's forgotten sunglasses turned into a hilarious moment we all shared.

This trip is a must-do for families looking for a fun and memorable day out on the water. I’m already looking forward to my next trip with them. Absolutely a 10/10 recommendation!

Waikiki's Most Affordable Turtle Snorkel Boat Tour - Mana Kai Catamaran

Amazing crew makes unforgettable trip!!!!

Reviewed by: Sushanti, 2024/03/30

From beginning to end the crew made everything easy, relaxing, fun and super special!!!! They were excellent with giving instructions and support to make us feel confident and comfortable in the water. The special attention to my 8yo daughter was above and beyond! We saw lots of turtles and beautiful fish. Kainoa even took my daughter around on the surf board and back to the boat when she needed a break so I could keep swimming! I highly recommend this to anyone and everyone! We want to do it again!!!!

Waikiki Friday Fireworks Tour aboard Three Tiki Sailing Catamaran

What a wonderful evening!

Reviewed by: Floyd, 2024/03/24

The Friday sunset and firework cruise by Three Tiki Sailing was outstanding. The crew was fabulous and even took us to see some whales that were close by. There were plenty of great seats and lots of great picture opportunities. The crew was more than happy to take several selfies of my wife and I. I would highly recommend this tour.

We had the best time ever with this snorkeling adventure. My husband doesn't really like snorkling but does it just for me. With our new personal snorkel gear and the fantastic friendly crew , he said this was the first time he enjoyed it. The weather was perfect and the turtles were amazing. We will definitely use Moana catamaran next time we come to Honolulu.

ホエールウォッチングクルーズ ワイキキ指定ホテル送迎付きプランあり<午前・午後/ドリンク(飲み放題)付き/ケワロ湾発>

何度も見れました!

Reviewed by: MYC, 2024/03/18

見れなかったという口コミもあったのであまり期待しないで行きましたが、5,6回くらい潮を吹いて潜っていくクジラを見ることができました!
尾鰭だけですがとっても大きくて感動しました!
自分は乗り物酔いしやすいですが、酔い止めなしでも全く酔いませんでした。
ただ風が強いので上着は持って行ったほうがいいです。
船内は裸足ですし、風でドリンクをこぼしたりする方もいるので濡れてもいい格好がおすすめです!
あと、送迎のシャトルバスは通りに止まるだけで呼びにきてはくれません。
会社名が書いてあるわけでもないので目立ちませんし、ドライバーさんによるかもですが名前を呼ばれたりもしないので大きめのバンが止まったら確認しに行くのが良いと思います。
あと送迎付きのプランの方は30分前に船の前に着くので、少々暇です。
(近くにアイス屋さんがあるので時間は潰せると思います!)

Amazing excursion & best crew ever!

Reviewed by: Jennifer, 2024/03/01

We were so excited to go swim at the sandbar and are so glad we decided to take a boat. Excursion includes a ride to the sandbar with refreshments, crew-led snorkeling, and free time. Was nervous that I wasn't able to swim too well for the snorkeling portion but Jayson was awesome and floated me & three other people through the deep water. Great experience for folks of all ages and backgrounds!
