Kauai Beach Boys Hawaiian Outrigger Canoe Surfing Ride

Excellent activity!

Reviewed by: Tif G

We did the outrigger canoe ride. This was a lot of fun! My spouse thought this was just gonna be a typical kayak, just on the ocean, so he was surprised to see the structure. Straight out of Moana! Chretien (sp?) was a great guide. Very friendly and knowledgeable about the water, surfing activities, and the general area. I think we caught 4 waves and hit speeds we wouldn’t have believed! I think the site said to bring close-toed shoes, but we shed shoes completely for the ride. Definitely bring a hat (for the sun), but maybe something with a strap to keep it on your head. Beware the parking area! Riddled with huge, tire-destroying pot holes!

Kaneohe Bay Sandbar Ocean Sports Adventure with Snorkel, Kayak, SUP & Live Music

First Sandbar experience

Reviewed by: NSF

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.

Perfect day

Reviewed by: Mimi

I had such a great time, got some good drinks with us and awesome entertainment with the live music covers. Lovely staff and extremely helpful.
Definitely would recommend to bring extra mixers for whatever liquor you bring in a plastic bottle. They don't allow glass and the only drink options are water and orange tang. Outside of that i had an amazing time and met some pretty nice folks.

Kaneohe Bay Sandbar Ocean Sports Adventure with Snorkel, Kayak, SUP & Live Music

Worth every penny!

Reviewed by: Dianne

Our family of 6 had a blast on this event! We booked the full package with banana boat and bumper tube add-on for our teens and just a standard package for mom and dad + an infant. There was plenty to do for all ages! We laughed and enjoyed watching the kids tackle the watersports. The waters were calm enough for my infant daughter to enjoy a dip. Life jackets are provided in all kinds of comfortable sizes. There was plenty of time to spare! The crew is lovely. Everyone was so kind and welcoming. The live music was very much appreciated and performed by a talented duo.

I highly recommend this event!

It was an amazing experience! The sandbar is such a unique and beautiful location making it very memorable. The staff were very attentive and made it a safe and super fun time. Lots of activities that you can do and there's enough time to do everything. I highly recommend this trip.

Kaneohe Bay Sandbar Ocean Sports Adventure with Snorkel, Kayak, SUP & Live Music

A perfect morning

Reviewed by: Betsy

This was exactly what I needed to do for a spring break morning after a stressful half semester. The staff were super friendly. I really appreciate that the SUP boards and kayaks were available for anyone to use at any time, as well as that we were not required to give up our kayak after any given period of time. We ended up spending most of our time floating and paddling. The reef is also great for snorkeling, with some unusual sea cucumber things I hadn't seen elsewhere in Hawaii.

Kaneohe Bay Sandbar Ocean Sports Adventure with Snorkel, Kayak, SUP & Live Music

This is perfect for kids and non-swimmers as it's shallow for miles!

Reviewed by: Bay Area Local

This was a fun half day trip. Parking is free which is a plus. It's great for big groups, newcomer's to Hawaii and families with kids. The sand bar is shallow, so it's easier on non-swimmers. The equipment was in good condition and clean. The staff was great and very helpful. It's BYOB and food so that's a treat and you're not locked in to some random meal that you don't like. Spend the extra money for the Tube Ride, it's worth it. The entertainment is wonderful and legit! There is so much local talent in Hawaii and it was a pleasure to have see some. We did the morning boat and my teenagers loved it and it was just enough time for them to be able to get back and surf in the afternoon. I highly recommend this excursion and like any industry, tipping is always a great way to show gratitude.

A must for any vacation

Reviewed by: Eezy

My fiancée and I did the afternoon session and our experience was amazing. Even though the time it takes from the marina to the sandbar isn't too long the singing brahs were amazing. They can really sing and are truly great souls. The staff was extremely friendly and very knowledgable in all the activities that they offer. Im not a small guy and they were able to guide me and get me to be able to paddle board standing up on my first time ever trying the activity. They always made sure everyone was safe while doing all the activities they offer. I would 100% recommend visiting the sandbar during your vacation!

We were a group of 16 travel nurses. We had a blast! We booked the afternoon tour with banana boat and tube rides. We were provided with lunch upon boarding. We also brought our own coolers and snacks. There was live musicians playing who were AMAZING!!!! The ENTIRE crew was so fun and accommodating. They made sure we were taken care of. They provide you with snorkel gears, stand up paddle, kayaks and there was also a floating lounge area to chill at. We had a blast playing water volleyball too. JUST BOOK IT! You won’t regret it. Also please bring cash to tip the crew and musicians because they truly deserve it. Mahalo for everything!!!! Will come back again!

Introductory Two-Tank Kauai Scuba Diving Boat Tour (from Poipu)

Over the top experience and a little scary, too!

Reviewed by: jblomme

John was our scuba expert and my two daughters and I were novices so we went through an orientation and practice dive with him. We enjoyed our boat ride to the sites and our Captain was a great guide and helped us get views of sea turtles, whales and dolphins. He also explained the coastline and made sure we got good photos! The first dive we were more focused on our breathing but still managed to see a lot of incredible fish! On the second dive we were more relaxed and able to focus on our beautiful surroundings . The sea turtles were so close we could have touched them (illegal though!) . I felt like I was part of Finding Nemo with all the fabulous fish we saw! We saw a starfish, trumpetfish, reef triggerfish, pennant butterfly fish, white spotted toby, yellow stripe goatfish, etc. It was wonderful to be in such a surreal environment . I’ve had scuba diving on my bucket list for around 40 years- We did it. I will never forget this adventure, John and the Crew from Seasport Divers that it all happen!

  • Enjoying the views, whales, sea turtles and dolphins with our Captain

  • Feeling incredibly lucky for our wonderful scuba experience
