Perfect for the family! The water was not too deep for my 6 yr old, my 11 yr old got to paddle board and snorkel for the first time!! The view and the water … the colors.. WOW!! Beautiful location! I love that they have life guards in the water so you won’t float out to the deep!! Everyone on the crew was so friendly!!

  • Paddle boarding and kayaks

  • Floating doc to sit and bring snacks

  • I’m mean come on! This view!

  • Snorkeling with their equipment they provided

Great times! Something for everyone with pristine water and views. Highly recommend!

Reviewed by: Garrett Cottam, 2022/04/15

Had a great time on this tour. They seemed to have something for everyone. We kayaked, paddle boarded, snorkeled, played volleyball, and snorkeled some more. We saw a great variety of fish and sea life. Others enjoyed the floating on the barge, socializing, taking in the sun and amazing views. The musicians were great. Played good music and had great voices. Only problem was that we needed more time because this was such a great time. Thank you to the fantastic crew! Would highly recommend this tour and company!

Spring Break 4/2022

Jesse and all crew members,

I am reaching out to thank you for all your efforts in making sure my daughter & grandchildren and I had a good time. When we arrived we expressed our disappointment and you all were so kind in reassuring us that you would do your best to make sure we had a good time. And we did!!
You were all so wonderful. Jesse, you made Jack’s day by playing football with him on the sandbar. At the end of our stay in Honolulu he said that was his favorite day of the whole vacation. I am quite sure he will remember that day all his life. And eventually my daughter and granddaughter went out and enjoyed sharing a kayak.
The lunch was very nice and all the crew members we spoke with were very kindhearted and friendly. I just can’t say enough about everyone. And Jesse, you’re also a very good singer. You and your band member are very talented!

So thank you again for making our sandbar adventure a wonderful day that we will never forget..

Sincerely,
Deborah Muehlenbein

Place was amazing, not all tours have kayaks to use or standing paddle boards. Amazing views of the sandbar. Will definitely come back again or invite friends to see this amazing nature wonder.

Best excursion!

Reviewed by: Robert Yang, 2022/04/01

This was the highlight of our family trip. Love how there were so many activities not just for adults but for kids as well. We bought two separate packages for our families, and definitely you should get the all inclusive package it comes with bumper tube and the banana boat and that was so much fun. Half the family that didn’t get the all inclusive missed out on that. Also, they have a changing room so you can changed into your swimwear when you get there as well. You’re allowed to bring your own drinks/ alcohol, food and snacks on the boat. So much activities and there’s a lounge area to hangout as well. We definitely recommend this excursion to everyone. It will not disappoint and also all the staffs are super friendly and welcoming.

Amazing staff, amazing day!

Reviewed by: Meg Zottarelli , 2022/04/01

This was an epic experience from start to finish. These guys work so hard to make sure everyone is having a good time—from the musicians to the guys on the water, it was all so perfectly crafted. The sandbar is safe and warm, the activities are all so fun, the mountains in the distance are the perfect backdrop, and the music is so good. Mahalo for such a memorable experience that our family will treasure forever. (And special thanks to the staff who helped me find my phone in the ocean when it fell out of my pocket on the SUP.) I will recommend this to anyone coming to Oahu.

Highlight of our family trip

Reviewed by: Kelly Vang, 2022/03/28

Best excursion, hands down so much fun. Get the 8 hours and make sure to get the All Inclusive package it’s definitely worth it. We only got 4 hours but the 4 hours went by so quick and we wished we would have gotten 8 hours instead. I love how there were alot of different activities. You can bring your own coolers, drinks and food onto the boat even though they do offer lunch with the package. All the staffs were super nice and friendly really made it worth while. We definitely will be returning in the future with our friends and families.

First Sandbar experience

Reviewed by: NSF , 2022/03/19

The crew was so welcoming and sweet! I’ve been to Hawaii almost 10 times but this was my first time at the Sandbar. It is really nice if you also just want to enjoy the water and beautiful weather. The activities are a bonus. I lost my earring and they literally snorkeled for about 20 min and actually found it. Super cool people :) I will definitely be back, hopefully next time w family and friends.

You should definitely book the sandbar excursion. We had a great time paddle boarding and playing volleyball. The best part was the banana boat and snorkeling as we got to see sea turtles. The staff is so nice and helpful and the music was great as well. We will definitely do this again!! Take your drinks and enjoy the best time ever!

Kaneohe Sandbar on Feb 11th 2022

Reviewed by: Slixx, 2022/03/05

The Crew the experience was awesome - The Aloha Vibes was there. All Crew memebers were top notch in entertainment and very nice and fun. They interacted with all the participants made us feel comfortable and enjoyable.

Activities was kool they had a VolleyBall Court, snorkling gears, kayak, Paddle board and if you wanted to get pulled by a yellow banana floater from a boat. Also, they had a barge you can go chill and sun bath. Had music playing and it was great.

Lunch was okay Ham/Turkey Sandwhich, drink and a bag of chips.
There was no alcohol on board so make sure to bring your own.

Plus that day was so beautiful and very minimal wind - 80 degree....

Overall it was awesome and will do it over and over - Love it !!!!

Unadulterated FUN!!!

Reviewed by: HHY, 2022/03/03

This was an AMAZING experience. The crew and the musicians were all super friendly. The sandbar itself was fantastic and absolutely gorgeous. The three primary activities: snorkeling, paddleboarding, and kayaking were all very enjoyable. There was ample time to try out and enjoy each activity at our leisure. During kayaking, we even got to see a sea turtle gliding along the sandbar! Overall, it was an incredible experience and I would definitely do it again.

Sandbar fun

Reviewed by: Kim, 2022/02/26

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.

Good fun and even better hospitality

Reviewed by: Gupta’s -New Jersey, 2022/02/14

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.

MOST AMAZING BOAT CREW EVER

Reviewed by: Maria , 2022/02/12

This was by far the most amazing boat ever! The vibes were everything! Everything was clean and the sandwiches were tasty. I loved the entertainment and the water activities. This was by far the chillest crew ever. No one felt rushed because all the activities are in one spot. I highly recommend doing the bumper or banana boat activity! I’m already planning to book for when my fiancée comes in town!

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.

AWESOME PLACE!! GOT TO ATTEND!!

Reviewed by: Rodney Angel Rozier , 2022/01/29

We are from South Carolina and going on this Adventure was the most outstanding thing we done in the week we were here. They will truly treat you like family from the first minute they meet you. Great live music and awesome personalities!! Jessie, one of the singers, should have played in the NFL but will make it big in the music industry without a doubt. Felt like I've known him and all if the crew all my life. Whatever you do, dont tell Shyla she can't throw you off the tube because SHE WILL!! It was AWESOME!! From the Captains to the Crew you will feel like FAMILY from the first time you speak with them. If all you do is that, the trip is worth it!!
Thanks Jessie, Shyla and the entire Crew for an AMAZING time!!

5 stars, highly recommended!

Reviewed by: MackE, 2022/01/28

As someone who is terrified of being in the ocean, I had a great time in this cruise. The boat was clean, live music entertainment was great, and the staff was friendly, making the experience very enjoyable. We stayed in Waikiki and did not rent a car but they do offer a round trip ride for an extra charge(worth it!)

This cruise had two options with cruise times and we decided to do the morning one(9am-1pm), which I highly suggest because you can enjoy all the activities without being under the very hot sun for too long. This cruise included free donuts and beverages and use of stand up paddle boards, kayaks, and snorkeling gear. We got lucky that the cruise we booked was not fully booked so everyone on board were able to use the water equipment without having to wait. Another big, big plus is that the captain of the boat takes amazing pictures for you while you enjoy yourself in the water! Overall, I enjoyed this experience and highly recommend it if you are looking for a vacation activity!
