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

Sandbar

Reviewed by: Raj , 2022/06/11

Literally the coolest thing we have ever done! We went as a big family of 16 with kids and we all enjoyed it and got out in the water.

Molokini Snorkel Tour & Swim with Turtles Cruise - PacWhale Eco-Adventures

Perfect snorkeling cruise with breakfast and lunch provided

Reviewed by: Susan, 2022/06/11

The best snorkeling cruise at two different sites. Molokini and turtle town. Did not disappoint either sites. Lots of fish, sea life and coral at Molkini. Then on to turtle town which also did not disappoint. Turtles and fish abound. One turtle even came to surface for air while we watched. The staff is amazing, knowledge and very helpful. Pacific whale foundation cruises give back their profits to benefit the sea life. I highly recommend.

Waikiki Snorkel with Turtles Cruise with Beers & Cocktails - Ke Kai Catamaran

Short but sweet

Reviewed by: Heidi B., 2022/06/10

We want to express our extreme satisfaction with the snorkeling tour we took with our family this morning (10:30 am tour). In particular, the crew of the boat (Junyah, Bella, Josiah, Julian, and Amos) were very professional and accommodating. We really liked that all of your staff were clear with their instructions, but also relaxed and light humored. We really appreciated the time and attention they gave to our daughter, Olivia, who was snorkeling for the first time and required a lot of additional attention. Even though we required extra attention, no one was rude or impatient with us - in fact, they were very kind and understanding. Thanks again to your crew for such a positive experience!

Keauhou Bay Manta Ray Night Dive Tour & Snorkel Adventure from Kona - Sea Quest

Best activity

Reviewed by: Terry, 2022/06/10

This trip was awesome. I have done several before with other companies and this is the best. Within minutes, four or five mantas started feeding. Others soon joined. Then flips and near surface swimming by the mantas continued the whole time. Excellent and I highly recommend. The crew were incredible.

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

10/10 Recommended

Reviewed by: Kassandra, 2022/06/10

This activity was very well worth every penny. We’ve never met such friendly people (staff). We did the morning package and it was just what we needed, you’re allowed to bring your own gear as well as your own snacks and drinks! Our favorite part was listening to the band whom sang and played so beautifully on your way to and from the sandbar. This is a must if you’re in Oahu!

2.5-Hour Turtle Snorkel Tour with One Cocktail - Waikiki Rainbow Sail Catamaran

It is affordable

Reviewed by: OCFD519JH, 2022/06/09

Like I said it is affordable. The kids running the boat we’re friendly an did the best they could. 22 people, some of which had not only never snorkeled, but were clearly uncomfortable in the water were too much for the crew to safely manage. I personally had to save a struggling passenger while the guy that was working the lifeguard shift was wrangling other dingdongs! Not the lifeguards fault he was just dealing with too many other folks and couldn’t get to the panicky woman fast enough. I don’t mind, I am a water rescue swimmer with my fire department but still… Her screaming for help couldn’t be heard over the clamoring of the other passengers on deck and the music playing onboard. When folks are in the water 100% attention to the swimmers is the only safe option and if you can’t hear them then the music needs to be off and eyes need to be on the swimmers. The operation was also billed as a sailing and snorkeling adventure with sailing being the key word for me. The wind was fine and other boats were sailing but our sails never went up. If you’re on a budget do it. but for 20-30 more you could do the same thing with a power boat, dolphins and turtles, food and water, and a photographer who would gladly sell you the images from the trip for a few extra dollars. In all honesty a confident swimmer could have reached turtle canyon in a easy half hour of swimming but that’s not for everyone.

For those of you who don’t swim, don’t feel comfortable in the water, or have small children that don’t swim. this is not how you spend your money. Endangering yourself or your family because “anyone can snorkel” in open water, when you’ve never done it before makes the trip that much less enjoyable for everyone including the crew. It is not their job to pay all their attention to you, and it becomes unsafe for everyone else.

Any chance to get in the water will always be awesome for me so like I said it is affordable. If it’s your best option yay!
Go for it!

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

Not what I expected

Reviewed by: Hannah, 2022/06/07

I actually did not really like this experience. We ate breakfast at 10am, just in time to be picked up at our hotel, which was really nice. We got there and right away we were told very rudely that we had to eat lunch as soon as we got in the boat or we were not getting anything to eat at all. For a trip that says that you are required to bring a motion sickness treatment for the boat ride, eating lunch on the way there really seamed unlikely. I would of thought that they would serve lunch and you can choose when you are ready to eat sometime after we arrived at the sandbar.
Second, I know this is out of their control, but the water was freezing and the area we could do activities was so limited. They had snorkeling and paddle boarding. There were no fish in sight and the water is like 3 feet deep. I would rather spend my time going and buying lunch and spend my afternoon at Waikiki beach then spend the money to do this activity, Not really a happy customer.

モロキニ島シュノーケリングクルーズ <朝・昼食付/現地集合>

シュノーケリング

Reviewed by: よしこ, 2022/06/06

初めてのハワイ、久し振りのシュノーケリングでちょっぴり不安でした。
クルーは船長、スヌーバ担当の方がおひとり、あと三人のうちお二人が日本の方。運航、器具の貸し出し、朝食と昼食の準備、飲み物の提供、そもそもお忙しいのに、COVIDで感染対策も加わった訳で、みなさんくるくると働いておられました。(それでもCOVID前に比べれば参加人員が少ないとか。)
そんなでお忙しいのに、みなさん親切で優しく質問には答えて下さり、潜る時には怖がっている妹に付きっ切りでお世話をして下さいました。
持って行った日焼け止めが使えるか心配でしたが、船で購入が出来ました。
お天気にも恵まれ、お陰様でシュノーケリングを楽しめました。また行きたいです。

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

Worth every penny

Reviewed by: Ford Ohana, 2022/06/06

Far exceeded my expectations. Crew was great, attentive as well as the live music. The 3 hours flew by and we did not want to leave after a banana boat ride, snorkeling, volleyball and relaxing on the lounge. Ive been to Hawaii many times... this was one of my favorite things to do. The early trip (9am) is probably the better option because parking is very limited and you will have to park on the street and walk a bit to the pier. Also bring cash because there's no ATM in the market and you will want to leave a tip for the crew and band. A must do if you go to Hawaii!!!

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

My top recommendation for Oahu!

Reviewed by: Jacqueline , 2022/06/06

Such a fun time for young large groups! Came with a large group of 16 all in our 20’s. It felt like the live musicians were personalizing their song picks to us and interacted with us. There’s several activities to choose from. The lounger is great and looks so good for photos!! Tubing was so fun, and it seemed like the crew was having a good time as well. Definitely recommend the raft vs the banana boat for a more extreme time! I just wish we had more times to fully do all the activities, I wouldn’t have minded and extra 30 mins or 1hr. This activity would be fun for families, but since it’s BYOB I recommend it more for young groups. Can’t recommend this activity enough!!

Delightful Experience

Reviewed by: Splashdjp, 2022/06/04

The tour group that hosts this is top! Everyone on their staff was so friendly and helpful. We had a great time as a family of 6. My girls both wanted to try the paddle board and the staff was great about giving them solid instructions. Snorkeling was delightful and the total water experience was well worth the money spent. Only regret was we did not bring a GoPro or some sort of waterproof camera setup as we got zero picture of this experience :-(
