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.

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

You should definitely book the sandbar excursion. We had a great time paddle boarding and playing volleyball. The best part was the banana boat and snorkeling as we got to see sea turtles. The staff is so nice and helpful and the music was great as well. We will definitely do this again!! Take your drinks and enjoy the best time ever!

THE BEST TIME EVER!
Reviewed by: Katrina
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!

West Oahu Dolphin Watch & Reef Snorkel Tour with Ocean Activities - Iruka Hawaii
Incredible Experience
Reviewed by: Jess Detko
Absolutely incredible experience! Every crew member was friendly, knowledgeable, and joy to be around. We saw two large pods of dolphins (crew estimated each pod to be about 100 spotted dolphins) - it was awe inspiring to see these beautiful animals in their natural environment. After two separate snorkel tours for dolphins, we moved to shallower water for various activities - the crew members were so helpful and great with kids wanting to try everything! Splurge and purchase the professional photos! We highly recommend this tour to everyone and will definitely go again the next time we visit.
Aloha Jess, We are so happy that you enjoyed our Dolphin tour. Thank you so much for joining us and leaving such kind feedback. We hope to see you again soon. Mahalo!

Captain Bob's Kaneohe Sandbar Snorkel & BBQ Lunch with Free Transportation
Amazing time for the whole family!!
Reviewed by: Patricia
As a family of 3 young children (10, 7 and 20 months), we wanted to do at least one excursion on our trip and this was perfect for the 20 month old as she was able to swim in the sandbar! There were no issues taking the 40 minute bus and then the 10 minutes boat ride over to Kaneohe. It was very organized and clean! The staff were very professional and nice and when I emailed the company about bringing my baby’s float, they had no concerns! Kaneohe Sandbar was absolutely breathtaking and so beautiful! We even saw lots of sea turtles! We spent some time in the sandbar to swim and they even set up a volleyball net! They also come around and take pictures for you. While you’re out swimming, the other staff is preparing lunch. The food was pretty good too! Next stop was snorkeling and my husband said it was fun with the kids. They even rinse you off after you’ve finished. Definitely pack extra dry clothes as the bus gets cold - I read a review about that and it came in handy. I am definitely going to recommend this excursion to others.

Molokini Snorkel Tour & Swim with Turtles Cruise - PacWhale Eco-Adventures
Great snorkeling cruise!
Reviewed by: Anh
This was a great snorkeling cruise that also supports the Pacific Whale Foundation. In total we had about 2 hours of snorkeling time at two different locations (one being Molokini). We didn't get to see any sea turtles but there were plenty of fishes and coral reefs. You'll get a light breakfast and lunch provided. We also saw a lot of whales since it was whale watching season.
