Captain Bob's Kaneohe Sandbar Snorkel & BBQ Lunch with Free Transportation
Captain Bobs sandbar and snorkel
Reviewed by: Tony and Helen. , 2023/05/07We had an enjoyable day out. The weather wasn’t very favourable but the team still did an outstanding job. Lunch was cooked fresh and was very nice. We didn’t snorkel but looks like all had a great time.
The only thing I would change is we had 2 boats tied together and it made for a lot of flippers in the water, looked very crowded around the reef. I’m saying that, the team always kept their eyes on the job and communicated together at all times.
Great job done by all.

ウミガメウォッチ。残念な天候でした。
Reviewed by: taka, 2023/05/03サンドバーも曇り時々シャワーであまりきれい見えず、寒くて雨模様。スノーケリングも少し濁りがあり余り魚に会えなかった。6日目が悪天候、少し残念ですがクルーの方は、一生懸命楽しませてくれました。

サンドバー 天使の海 シュノーケリング＆ウミガメウォッチクルーズ 船上のBBQグリルで焼くハンバーガーランチ付き＜午前／日本語クルー＞
お天気次第…
Reviewed by: とまと, 2023/05/03ツアーに参加しないとサンドバーまで行けないということと日曜日はツアーはないということで、平日は仕事だった主人は参加できず1人で参加しました。(ちなみに他のみなさんはカップルが多くてちょっと寂しい〜！)
しかし当日は朝からずっと霧雨の曇天。
写真のような景色とは程遠く、全部グレーでした。天候に左右されるのは致し方ないですから、こればかりは良い天気を祈るしかないかと思います。
1人参加でしたがサンドバーの時にシュノーケリングの説明と練習をさせてもらえます。英語での説明と日本語での説明をして下さるので英語がイマイチでも安心です。
ランチのハンバーガーは船上でとても美味しくいただきました。
後半のシュノーケリングも天候が悪かったので視界はあまり良くありませんでしたがお魚見えました。
ただ、とにかく上がった後寒くて寒くてガタガタ震えてしまいました。船上で熱いココアをいただきましたがなかなか温まらず。帰りのバスも濡れた水着を着たまま上に羽織って帰るのですが、これまたバスのエアコンがよくきいていてブルブル…。
参加される方は濡れたものは出来るだけ脱いで、行きよりたくさん着て帰れるようにすることをオススメします！

Waikiki's Most Affordable Turtle Snorkel Boat Tour - Mana Kai Catamaran
Chill atmosphere, kind service, and amazing sights among the fish and turtles!
Reviewed by: Nick Pettyjohn, 2023/05/01My wife and I had a great time. The two guides, captain and turtle-whisperer, were confident, relaxed, and funny. The pick-up location was incredibly convenient for us, near our hotel on the Waikiki beach strip. The ride to the canyon was just 15 minutes, and looking back on the city was breathtaking.
Once there, we distributed masks and floaty-belts and jumped right in! I foolishly wiped off my mask and it clouded up, but the captain was keen to fix it after I brought it to his attention. The turtle-whisperer was around to spot turtles and check in on our snorkelers, but otherwise we were allowed to roam.
There were quite a few other tour boats and snorkel groups at the site, but we were able to still find turtles and fish while staying a bit away from the groups of other snorkelers. We ended up among a school of black fish and had two turtles swim very close to us! Once while my wife and I were holding hands. A highlight of our vacation!
Don't go into this expecting a private/guided tour of the reef. Instead, it's a relaxing transportation to a great snorkel spot, with equipment included. For this price, I highly recommend it.

Captain Bob's Kaneohe Sandbar Snorkel & BBQ Lunch with Free Transportation
The sandbar island adventure!
Reviewed by: 329islandtours, 2023/04/29This sandbar tour was the best choice! It was so fun! They had all the gear and all we had to do was bring ourselves! They supplied the tastiest BBQ burgers with vegan options as well! Our captain was so professional, yet funny, and extremely helpful taking pictures for us, and giving us the best sandbar adventure ever! We played volleyball, snorkeled, and enjoyed cruising around the sandbar. I can't wait to go again!
Mahalo nui loa!

Captain Bruce Kaneohe Sandbar Cruise with SUP, Guided Snorkel & Transportation
The Best Tour in Oahu- a must do!
Reviewed by: Alaskawayne, 2023/04/12Wow! To start. They picked us up at our hotel to start. Then drive us to Kaneohe sandbar. Next a beautiful short boat ride to two barges loaded with sea toys. Beautiful shallow sandy beaches that are user friendly for small children to seniors. The reef snorkeling is easy, very well guided and watched in smaller groups. We swam with turtles. Captain Danny went out of his way to share local marine knowledge and make sure all got to see turtles. This was our second time- we also sent our daughter and grandchild. They immediately fell in love with the tour and friendly crew. They are like family to us now. We will always come and swim with the turtles only with Captain Bruce's Team.
We have tried others and this family prefers and highly recommends Captain Bruce's based on experience. I am a former diver for the Seattle Aquarium, researcher for Washington State Department of Fisheries, Rescue Diver, Assistant Dive Instructor Advanced Open Water and lastly Alaska Department of Fish and Game. Simply said "Captain Bruce's does it right". I send my grandkids there Thank you Captain Bruce's! We love you!!! My only request is that you start another tour a bit more advanced for experienced snorkelers.
Then sign up this family
Aloha and thank you so much for taking the time to write this wonderful review and the compliments of yours.
We're very pleased to hear the whole family is having such a great time at the sandbar.
Your kind words are greatly appreciated and Mahalo for sharing your best experience with the Capt. Bruce tour. We look forward to seeing you again in the near future.

Captain Bob's Kaneohe Sandbar Snorkel & BBQ Lunch with Free Transportation
Amazing day at the sandbar, lots of sea turtles & snorkeling
Reviewed by: Amm, 2023/04/03Upon going to the sandbar for the first time, I decided to give Captain Bob's Kaneohe Bay a try. So glad I did because I had an amazing time on this cruise. All of the employees were super nice and made sure everyone felt safe & comfortable on the cruise. The sandbar was absolutely stunning! The crew set up a volleyball net which allowed for all of us to have a fun match of beach volleyball at the sandbar. Those that didn't want to participate were able to walk around the sandbar at their leisure. I enjoyed that this cruise was away from all of the other cruises and boats in the area. It was like we had our own secluded little area. The food was delicious and afterwards we cruised over to a reef area to snorkel. Along the way, the captain went slow to make sure we got a chance to see all of the sea turtles floating on the surface of the ocean. We saw so many of them! The area we snorkeled in was amazing. I saw so many different kinds of fish and several sea turtles that literally swim right next to us. I had an amazing time and photos to last a lifetime. If you are thinking about doing a cruise to the sandbar, look no further. Would absolutely go again!

Captain Bruce Kaneohe Sandbar Snorkel & Private Speed Boat Rental
Incredible Time
Reviewed by: Tom, 2023/03/16Many moons ago I visited the sandbar and knew I needed to come back again. It took me 10 years but finally made it!!
I ponied up the cheddar for the private speed boat and for me it was perfect. Captain K was so attentive to my family. (My daughter tripped in the parking lot within 20 seconds of meeting him). He bandaged her up. Taught us about the geography of the bay. Went out of his way to find us some turtles at the end.
My 5 year old had the time of her life with all the fish! Snorkeling was amazing. All the toys already out on the sandbar were amazing.
10 out of 10. Will do again next time in Oahu.
On behalf of Capt. Bruce, we thank you so much for your feedback and loving support! We look forward to seeing you again in the near future.

Captain Bruce Kaneohe Sandbar Cruise with SUP, Guided Snorkel & Transportation
Great excursion!
Reviewed by: Donna J, 2023/03/13The included transportation was excellent. On time and our driver gave us commentary on the scenic drive to the harbor. On the way back he stopped at
Leonard's Barkery and let us get donuts!
The snorkeling at the bay was excellent, we saw lots of fish and saw 3 turtles.
Afterward we had about an hour at the bay to use paddleboards and floaties.
I wish they had kayaks like some of the other companies.
Snacks included granola bars, apples, chips, and musubi.
A little pricey but enjoyable morning.
On behalf of Capt. Bruce, we thank you so much for your support!
Your feedback is greatly appreciated and we look forward to seeing you in the near future.

Nice day on the water.
Reviewed by: Visitor, 2023/03/12this is a nice day on the water with a nice boat ride. Crew is very nice. It is $160 per person including transportation, and for that you get a seat on the boat maybe if you can find one, a cheeseburger with baked beans and fruit for lunch, a trip to a sandbar where either you play volleyball or stand around, then a trip to a reef to see little fish and turtles.
