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

Sandbar Excursion

Reviewed by: Brianna B

My boyfriend and I did this excursion on a Thursday morning. There were less than 10 people on the excursion. It was very intimate and all of the staff were outstanding. We snorkeled, canoed, stand up paddle boarded, and soaked up the sun. It was a great experience and the highlight of our trip. The sandbar was stunning and we also saw a turtle while snorkeling.

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

2/5/22

Reviewed by: A Temblador

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.

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

Once is not enough

Reviewed by: Chil

This was the highlight of our brief stay in Hawaii. My only regret is not having done this sooner. And after having experienced it, I can’t wait to do it again when I come back to Oahu. I love snorkeling, but two of the things that I was apprehensive about were deep waters and catamaran rides because I sometimes get motion sickness. But the catamaran ride and the live music were so smooth, I enjoyed the ride. The singers had amazing voices, and their island songs put everyone in a relaxed mood. The crew were very informative and helpful, even the most novice person felt at ease. We swam in deep waters, but I felt safe because a crew member was always nearby and kept a close eye on everyone. I didn’t get to see more that one giant turtle who was luckily resting at the time; otherwise, I probably wouldn’t have seen any. But I still had a great time seeing fishes, paddle boarding, kayaking, and just relaxing in the calm waters. Thank you for a wonderful experience!

Outrigger Canoe Surfing with Waikiki Beach Boys

The best thing to do in Waikiki

Reviewed by: Nancy

On our first day in Waikiki we started off with a thrill at Outrigger Canoe Surfing! The experience was fantastic from start to finish. Russell was the captain and he and his crew were phenomenal and with their encouragement we powered through the surf and set up for three exhilarating rides over the breaking waves. It felt as though we were surfing. I would recommend this again in a heartbeat.

Reply from activity provider

Belated "Mahalo Nui Loa" for your generous 5-star rating. Glad to know that canoe captain and our staff took care of your party. Thank you for recommending this true Hawaiian sport that you can only experience in Waikiki. We look forward to seeing you again soon. Aloha, Waikiki Beach Services

Hawaiian Parasailing Tour & Adventure from Waikiki Beach [800ft & 1000ft Lines]

What an experience!

Reviewed by: Gina

Wow! Everyone in Hawaii needs to go parasailing! My boyfriend and I did the 1000ft parasail and it was amazing. Our guides who were loads of fun really made it a cool experience. They take pictures for you that you can purchase for $35 that come on an SD card. The process of parasailing was quite simple. You step into some straps, sit down on the end of the boat and they clip two clips on and then BOOM YOU ARE OFF into the sky! You gradually get higher and it is so serene up in the sky. Literally breathtaking. After 6-7 minutes of flying, they lower you down and dip you into the water (for fun lol). So be careful if you are wearing glasses/sunglasses. You’ll get a nice cup of salt water tea!

My partner and I wanted to get out into the water this vacation and this experience was an absolute trip maker! From the music to the free donuts! We had a wonderful time! We didn’t expect there to be so many fun activities for us to do. We kayaked, paddle boarded and snorkeled and saw turtles and fish! We also paid for a bumper ride with the boat which was EXTREMELY exhilarating! Overall, we would love to come back. The experience was the key part of our trip! Mahalo!

AWESOME PLACE!! GOT TO ATTEND!!

Reviewed by: Rodney Angel Rozier

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!!

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

5 stars, highly recommended!

Reviewed by: MackE

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!

Amazing crew, great activities and price couldn’t be beat!

Reviewed by: Misty

We had checked several tour options… we wanted to snorkel, use SUP boards, and have a boat ride to a sandbar. We got so much more than that! The price was so low compared to other tours that we weren’t sure what we’d get, but they highly exceeded our expectations. ( also… the live music on board was amazing )

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

Awesome tour with friendly staff

Reviewed by: YvonneC

We booked the tour because we know sandbar might be suitable for kids' water activity. While checking-in and boarding, we had such great and warm welcome by the staff. As we got to sandbar, the view was amazing! Since we have two seniors with us, the staff helped them get on the kayaks and walked them to see around. We really appreciated them doing so.

We also saw sea turtles while snorkeling, which was quite an unforgettable experience. We also did SUP, kayak and my kids were having a really great time! The staff would also constantly remind us not going too far due to possible danger. Staff are super nice and friendly.I recommend families with young kids or seniors this tour. It did leave us good memories in this trip.

Fun time - nice staff!

Reviewed by: From AK

The staff was super nice and the equipment in good shape. They provided a waterproof map and told us the best spots to snorkel and maybe see turtles. We saw turtles and lots of fish! One note; When I booked the Yak Pack tour I was told it was thirty minutes to the sandbar. When I got there I learned it was actually more like 45 minutes. So that would take a good bit of our four hours. We wanted to snorkel too so we kayaked and snorkeled and didn’t make it to the sandbar which was just fine. Loved it. Brought snacks and drinks. Had a picnic on the kayak.

Aloha! Thank you so much for joining us for a kayak and snorkel adventure! And thank you for taking the time to leave such awesome feedback and pictures of your experience. All very good feedback, and we really appreciate that a lot. Stoked to hear it sounds like you had a great kayak and snorkel experience with us. And even though you didn't go to the sandbar, the other areas you went to are definitely better snorkeling areas. The sandbar is just a longer paddle, but you'll have to come back and kayak out to the sandbar next time! Hope to see you again soon! Mahalo!

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

The most amazing experience yet!

Reviewed by: Jen

My husband and I have been to Oahu three times and I can’t believe we only did this now! We literally booked the excursion the day before and it was hands down, the best experience we’ve had in all the times we’ve ever been here. It was worth every single penny. The fact that they include so many water activities from SUP to kayaking, snorkeling, and even a lounge in the water was amazing. We paid extra for the banana boat while we were there and so glad we did, so don’t feel like you have to pre-book it before going there.

On top of that, the staff are so friendly and accommodating. The live music on the way to the sandbar and back was so beautiful. They help guide you if you’ve never done any water sports before, which we never have. Some even offered to take our photos and videos. The staff were honestly just such genuine and lovely people.

One donut per guest and water/juice was provided, so good to bring your own snacks if you want. Though we didn’t even get to eat our snacks because we had so much fun and wanted to soak in every moment.

The sandbar wasn’t exposed when we went, but it was like being in a swimming pool in the middle of the ocean. It was incredible. Life jackets and snorkeling gear were also provided, so you just need to worry about bringing towels. They have washrooms and changing rooms on the boat and can leave your items there while in the water.

We really enjoyed our time and will definitely do this again when we come back! The best part is, it’s a locally owned business. Do not hesitate to book now, you won’t regret it!

  • The most beautiful backdrop

Value-packed 1/2 day trip

Reviewed by: Yes to Hawaii

If you're looking for a nice, quiet morning...this isn't it. BUT, if you're looking for a fun day on on the water with lots to do, this would be a fun choice for you. You get a lot of value: stand-up paddle boards, water trampoline, snorkeling, kayaks, etc. I liked that it was only a 1/2 day activity. We did the morning since the water is calmer and still had our whole day ahead of us after.
