The sandbar tour with lunch was fantastic. There was good music, a satisfying lunch before a swim, and nice and clean facilities for changing. The staff were all friendly and always had our safety as a top priority while ensuring we were having fun. I will be referring this tour to everyone I know! Thank you for making this a highlight of our dream vacation! Mahalo!

集合場所は分かりやすく車での移動も快適でした。
(かなり長い間乗るのと、険しい道もあったので車酔いをいやすい方は酔い止めがあったほうがいいかもしれません)
船には50人〜60人くらいはいたでしょうか、想像よりも多くの人が乗っていてMCの方の盛り上げもありわいわいとした雰囲気で楽しかったです。
食事は水、ジュース、ドーナツという割と簡素なもので自分で取りに行くスタイルでした。他の国の参加者の方でお酒や軽食を持参している方がおり、特に禁止されている様子もなかったので、食事を楽しみたい方は自分で事前に用意したほうがいいかもしれません。
肝心のサンドバーははじめは天気の関係で寒くそこまで綺麗に見えなかったのですが、
せっかくだと思いカヌーやSUPに乗ってみることができて楽しかったです。シュノーケリングでは大きい魚を観察できたようです!
終わりぎわのタイミングで日がでてきて想像していた景色を見ることができたのでよかったです。体験した日だけなのかもしれませんがもしかしたら朝イチよりお昼からの方が気温も上がっていいのかも?と思いました。
総じてスタッフの方も親切で楽しく、とてもいい経験ができました。
この度はツアーへのご参加、お写真のシェアして頂きありがとうございました。またのご参加お待ちしております。 KBOS スタッフ一同

Let me start by saying this is a must do when visiting o’ahu. The views from the sandbar are incredible. I’m 4’10” and I think the water at the sandbar come up to my waistline. It took us about 40 minutes to paddle out to it because I’m not the most athletic. Lol
The kayak tour did include a life jacket. We rented a dry bag and an anchor for $5. And anchor is a must if you want to hang out at the sandbar or snorkel at one of the reefs.
Speaking of reefs, what an experience! I saw plenty of beautiful fish and turtles. “Park” your kayak on the sandy area and do not step on the coral. They are very sensitive. If you park up by the corals, you’ll see plenty of fish and turtles popping in and out.
The staff was friendly and informative. They gave us the best route to be able to go to the sandbar and the reefs. We followed instructions and did exactly as we were told as everyone should.
You’ll have a great time if you follow the rules and respect the ocean and its animals!
Aloha! Thank you so much for joining us for a kayak and snorkel adventure! And thank you for taking the time to leave this awesome review and feedback! We really appreciate that. First of all I am so happy to hear that our staff treated you well and gave you good info that hopefully contributed to your having a great time. I cannot tell you how much we appreciate the feedback about listening to and following our staff's instructions. Thank you so much for that! I also cannot stress enough how much we appreciate your feedback regarding only being in the sand and never stepping on coral. This is such important info for everybody to be aware of, so I really hope everybody takes the time to read your review specifically. It is really, really good. Stoked to hear that it sounds like you had a great overall experience and that you consider this a 'must do' on O'ahu. Hope to see you again soon! Mahalo!

Sorry in advance. Not much of a writer here but we really wanted to share our experience.
Pros:
- The whole team were amazing! They screamed aloha spirit. My personal favorite was the blonde gentleman who spoke Japanese and Korean.
- live band was a hit! Both singers were amazing!
- food was basic but good. It was nicely plated as well which I was NOT expecting. Center piece was a nice touch.
- Really good bang for your buck with all the activities.
Con:
Not really reflective of the crew but the sandbar was not as shallow as I expected. Obviously it depends on the ocean and tides etc.

We loved the experience. Such soulful music on the boat followed by snorkeling, SUP, and kayaking. And then chilling on the floating couch. Loved it all.

When my family and I first got to the dock we were greeted by the friendly boat crew. They were very personable and caring. On the adventure, we made our way to the sandbar and were able to snorkel, paddleboard, canoe, and relax on the water deck. The sandbar was perfect to stand on and was not deep. The reef was beautiful to look at while snorkeling. My family and I paid extra for the intertube and banana boat, this experience was AWESOME!! You were asked what speed you would like the ride. We wore life jackets and we felt very safe even though this was an extreme water activity. The live music was wonderful, while the overall atmosphere was family oriented. This was our favorite excursion!! If you want a day to play in the water and have fun with the family, this is the excursion for you.

Staff were friendly and the musicians were great! Had the best time. Considering you get a boat ride to the sandbar and all of the activities when you get there, this has to be the best bang for your buck anywhere.

サンドバーは残念ながら現れませんでした。
でもとても海がキレイでアクティビティも楽しかったです。行き帰りの生バンドもめちゃくちゃよかった。
またいつかサンドバーを見にチャレンジしたいです。
水位が高かったようですね、海の状況は日々異なりコントロール出来ませんが、ハワイのきれいな海を楽しんで頂けた様で大変嬉しく思っています。この度はツアーへのご参加ありがとうございました。 KBOS スタッフ一同

There was something for everyone in our group of 11 people (ranging in ages from 3 to 68). Lunch was tasty, the crew was great, and everyone found things to enjoy. Booking was easy and the area is beautiful. We even saw a sea turtle swimming with us!! We definitely recommend this for other families.

A great place for small kids and adults due to shallow water. Good side excursions included with the price such as canoeing, paddle boarding, and snorkeling, but there's some waiting time for canoeing and paddle boarding due to limited availability.

Due to the price, I was debating whether to purchase this excursion for a family of four. I bit the bullet and purchased it; let me tell you, my experiences from the beginning to the end of the trip, it was magical. Just the drive to the location was a joy in itself, engulfed with the "aw" moment, witnessing the green mountains to the curvy roads. As we arrived at the boating dock, the instruction instructed us to check in near the deli Shop under the red umbrella. We were greeted by smiles and they quickly got us onto the boat after signing the waivers. The boat ride to Kaneohe Bay was worth it-the purchase included a simple breakfast (donuts, orange Juice, and water), live music (please tip the band), and the scenery was heavenly. The best part of this excursion was seeing my family enjoying every moment in the clear water, snorkeling, kayaking, and paddle boarding. The staffs were friendly educating us about the sea animals when we were snorkeling.
Overall, one of the best experiences ever. I would definitely do this again if I were to be in Oahu.
Mahalo for sharing your experience! So glad we got to be part of your trip to Oahu. Come back soon! - Team KBOS

浅瀬でのアクティビティなので、不安無く楽しめます。
バナナボートは振り落とされない様に、脚力、腕力全開で、少し筋肉痛になった。日頃の運動不足だね。
お魚が最高に可愛かったよーーー

Went with a few friends & we had a good time! The music was great, crew was friendly & helpful, & we enjoyed the floating lounge. I wish inner tubes would have been provided to float in the water, but not a huge deal. Overall, would recommend!

This was my first time to Hawaii and I took my son and out of all of our excursions this was by far the best one hands-down! Each and everyone of the crew members were so friendly and helpful and made you feel as if you were at home on their tour boat and the music was a great touch. We have never snorkeled or used a paddle board before and this adventure allowed the most beautiful perfect safe spot for our first time. I have never been in water that beautiful and if you were nervous at all some of the crew even stays in the water with you in all the areas at all times. Just book this tour you will not regret it! Thank you for providing my son and I priceless memories that we will cherish forever.

The afternoon on the Kaneohe Sandbar was amazing!! There were so many choices of things to do : kayaking, paddle boarding, snorkeling, sunning on the floating deck, or playing volleyball. The reef was filled with beautiful fish and the sand underfoot was smooth and soft. The crew was organized and efficient with each member per for their job effectively. But the icing on the cake was the live entertainment from two very talented musicians who played and sang as we rode out and back to the sandbar. It’s an adventure that I will book again when I return to the island!

Aloha Missy! Mahalo for taking the time to write us a review and give us a 5 star rating. We truly appreciate it. Surfing on the outrigger canoe is truly an amazing experience for all to know the feeling of riding a wave, no matter your skill level in the surf. We hope to have you back again soon.

EVERYTHING WAS PERFECT!
Great weather, Hawaii vibes, crew/staff was friendly, helpful, funny, and made us feel right a home.
Great experience for families. The water is not too deep for children. Maybe, above the knee.

We did the clear bottom kayak and snorkeling.
The weather on the north shore can be a little unpredictable, so keep that in mind. Steve gave us a quick lesson and we were on our way.
My wife and I had a great time, and would recommend this to anyone looking to get in the water and see some sea turtles!

満ち引きを見てなかった為、腰くらいまで水がありました。行かれる人は潮の満ち引き、大潮小潮などを調べての参加をお勧めいたします。
自分は海に入る事が目的だった為、後悔はありません。
潮の満ち引きや海の状況は日々異なり自然のものですのでコントロール出来ませんが、その様なハワイの自然も含め楽しんで頂ければと思い弊社では日々ツアーを催行しています。この度はツアーご参加、レビューありがとうございました。 KBOS スタッフ一同

本当は今頃サンドバーでシュノーケリングをしてたはずなのに、指定場所にピックアップに来てもらえず、ツアー会社に連絡したその後の対応の悪さに苦労した挙句時間を費やし、すでに現地にいる他のツアー参加者に迷惑をかけたくなかったので、仕方なく参加を断念しました。
今までネット環境さえあればスマホの電話機能なんて必要ないと思っていましたが、公衆電話もなく集合場所のホテルの宿泊者でもない私にとっては、必須の機能でした。
ツアー会社の言う集合場所から離れずに電話することがまず難関で、30分待って仕方なくホテルのレセプションで公衆電話があるかどうかを尋ね、親切なレセプショニストのおかげでホテルの電話で連絡させてもらえました。
その時にアプリかなんかでタクシーを呼んで現地まで行ってと言われて、アプリをダウンロードして配車を試みるも、ネット状況が悪くて何度もエラーに。そのうち現地集合時間が迫り、泣く泣く断念することに。
断念するとの電話連絡もひと苦労し、結果JALパックのレセプションに泣きつき、電話をしてもらってキャンセル連絡完了。
電話を使えず、英語も拙い私にとっては、クタクタに疲れた2時間でした。
ツアー会社に連絡した時にタクシーの手配をしてくれれば参加できたかも、LINEで連絡できたらもっと早く気づいてもらえてピックアップに来てもらえたかも。今はいろいろ要望もありますが、私も手痛い勉強になりました。
滞在期間中、唯一サンドバーにお目にかかれる潮位だった今日、他の日にリスケが出来ず残念です。
緊急時の対処がきちんとできるかどうか、ツアー会社も参加者も考えなくてはいけませんね。
この度は弊社のサンドバーツアーを楽しみに来てくださったにも関わらず弊社の不手際でご参加いただくことができず大変申し訳ございませんでした。
うまくご連絡をお取りすることができずまた他のお客様もいらっしゃりバスを戻すこともできず結果としてご参加いただくことができませんでした。
この件を受けて電話がつながらないお客様への対応をどのようにしたらよいか考えてまいる所存です。
このようなことで残念な思いをさせてしまったことを埋めることはできませんが
全額ご返金をさせていただきました。
改めましてお客様に悲しい思いをさせてしまいましたこと心よりお詫び申し上げます。
本当に申し訳ございませんでした。

シニアメンバー3人で参加しました…
カヤックにSUP、年甲斐もなく初めて体験しましたが、楽しく過ごせました現地スタッフの人達も場を和ませるプロで一つも嫌な気分にはならず、ホントに若者に混じって楽しませていただきました
元気なうちにまだまだやりたい事チャレンジしたいです。帰りの送迎バスはすごく冷え冷えで
タオルのほか羽織る物必須ですね。
皆様ツアーを楽しんで頂けた様で大変嬉しく思います。この度はツアーへのご参加誠にありがとうございました。またのご参加お待ちしております。 KBOS スタッフ一同
