Kaneohe Bay Sandbar Ocean Sports Adventure with Snorkel, Kayak, SUP & Live Music
Amazing experience with amazing people
Reviewed by: Kiah P., 2021/11/08We came for our anniversary and the experience was amazing!! The crew is so dope and truly and laid back group of people it feels like you are with family. The music was great and the activities were really nice. They have all of the equipment there for you to participate in the activities so you will need to bring the other things like towels, byob, and sunscreen. Go with these people for your snorkeling experience you won’t regret!! Thank you KBOS we had a blast!! Mahalo!!
On behalf of the KBOS Crew and Kealoha Music we thank you for this amazing review!!

Hula Kai Kona Luxury Snorkel Tour with 2 Snorkeling Stops, Breakfast & Lunch
Great snorkeling trip! Marginal food.
Reviewed by: Jim, 2021/11/07The boat and crew were great! The snorkeling equipment was first class. We didn't see that much wildlife at the two stops. A lot of small fish. The second stop was better. Didn't notice in the sign-up that the BBQ was vegan. That is nice for folks who like it but it would have been good to offer non-vegan food as well. We paid extra for the food on the cruise and I would have liked some regular food. Overall, the bar and drinks offered were very good and served with a smile. My wife thought the boat and seating were the best. The crew were very informative and happy to share their knowledge and culture with the guests. Would do it again!

Captain Bruce Kaneohe Sandbar Cruise with SUP, Guided Snorkel & Transportation
Awesome Crew
Reviewed by: Millicent Marquez, 2021/11/06From shuttle service to tour, everyone was awesome! Our driver, Sky, to Franky and Captain of the boat, Zi and her crew, they were all great!
The best experience is when Zi was able to convince my partner to go snorkeling by the reef. She guided her with the paddling board and this is her first experience swimming in the deep blue sea!
Aloha and Mahalo kindly for the compliments. On behalf of Cpt. Bruce, we thank you so much for this amazing review.

Kaneohe Bay Sandbar Ocean Sports Adventure with Snorkel, Kayak, SUP & Live Music
Worth it
Reviewed by: A. T. , 2021/11/05It was such a fun and relaxing day trip. Worth it! Good experience! The only con thing is that it’s stated on the website that soft drinks, juice, bread, pastries and continental breakfast are included with all the water activities BUT….BIG BUT they didn’t have and never had any of those except DONUTS, water and punch! I showed them what’s written on the tour site and the booking confirmation and they said that’s weird I was not the first who said this, they gotta talk to the agent. So come prepare your own drinks and snacks.
We apologize for the misunderstanding. We can assure you that we did contact your booking agent to make that correction on their website.
Mahalo for spending the day with us and we hope to see you guys again :)

Captain Bob's Kaneohe Sandbar Snorkel & BBQ Lunch with Free Transportation
Best excursion we ever had.
Reviewed by: Jenica, 2021/11/05I don't know where to start, the staff, the boat, the experience were all amazing and so much fun!
We got lucky with weather and it was a perfect hot day out (also it's October so it's not scorching out)
Staff is experienced, fun & down to earth. They've been running the boat for a long time and train the younger staff themselves & they're very friendly.
They also have a lot of knowledge about the whole island but just the boat.
We went straight to the Sandbar on crystal blue water which there's lots of deck space to watch. We had the sandbar all to ourselves, set up a net and because our cruise ended up having less people and all adults, we all easily fit in and played a few games together in the middle of the ocean, honestly how much better and dreamlike can it get. We had a blast while others if not playing walked around the sandbar and enjoyed the amazing views.
Had a much needed lunch complete with some wine & enjoyed the sun.
We then went turtle searching and saw quite a few hanging out and breaching, but honestly having time to just enjoy the breeze and take in the views was great. Again, weather dependant but on a good day, boat is sturdy, hardly any rocking, nobody even looked remotely sick.
Then the snorkeling is on a pop up reef, so you can swim around the entire thing. Again, weather dependant but for us, crystal clear waters, some colourful fish, a nice lap in the water.
100% take the fresh water once or twice rinse after the snorkeling it'll make the rest of your boat time feel much more comfortable!
They served hot chocolate after and it warmed our bodies back up.
We all finished snorkeling rather early so instead of cutting our excursion short, they took us on a scenic route and gave us more sights and time on the boat.
Take this cruise if you're into some vball and snorkelling, those things alone & you'll love this!!

Kaneohe Bay Sandbar Ocean Sports Adventure with Snorkel, Kayak, SUP & Live Music
Highly Recommended 5 star Experience!
Reviewed by: Melissa C, 2021/11/04This was our first time visiting the sandbar and it was so much fun because of the crew of KBOS! Our day was overcast, but we still had an amazing experience. They have a large selection of water toys. We did the paddle boards, clear canoe & snorkeled over the coral. But you can also kayak or get a ride on a banana boat. They also set up a volleyball net. They pull a large platform barge with seating so you can rest or just enjoy sunbathing. The catamaran is shaded & spacious with plenty of tables for seating. There are bathrooms & changing rooms on board. They fed us a turkey/ham sandwich on a croissant with chips & pineapple and they provide water & punch anytime you need it. I felt like we could bring our entire family including all ages from grandparents to small kids. There is something for everyone. We saw a massive turtle & a sting ray. Even though our day was cloudy the crew still made it a blast! They were fun to hang out with & the live band was AMAZING! I usually don’t redo excursions that I’ve already done, but I would definitely book this tour every time I visit Oahu!
Mahalo for this amazing review Melissa!
On behalf of the KBOS crew, we thank you for spending the day with us and will wait for your return :)

2.5-Hour Turtle Snorkel Tour with One Cocktail - Waikiki Rainbow Sail Catamaran
A blast chill vibes
Reviewed by: Matt & mariel , 2021/11/03At first it we questioned ourselves on where to meet (no signs whatsoever) but it was exactly where the instructions said- beachfront in front of Duke Statue. Otherwise instructions were all very clear & easy to follow. Guys on our boat were friendly and super relaxed- could bring anything on the boat in terms of food and drinks. Boat ride was beautiful. Was a clear day so we saw a lot of turtles- got to spend lots of time on the water. Chill vibes all throughout just the way we like it. Had a blast for first time snorkelers!!!!

Captain Bob's Kaneohe Sandbar Snorkel & BBQ Lunch with Free Transportation
Very Nice and Clean Boat, Best Food and Best Crew
Reviewed by: Dohn Salvador, 2021/11/01What else can you ask for: Very Nice and Clean Boat, Best Food and Best Crew. First time in a sand bar and snorkeling with lots of turtles is really worth it.
Come and try them out. If you want to see lots of turtles then you need to join them.
You will love them and I will definitely join them again on my next trip to Hawaii.

Waikiki Guided Turtle Snorkel Tour with Snacks & Drinks - Holokai Catamaran
We snorkeled for the first time with turtles.
Reviewed by: Judith Byrne, 2021/11/01My friends and I were celebrating our 30th wedding anniversary in Honolulu. The turtle swim was our first activity. It met all of our expectations and then some. The three men who took out out to swim made us feel very comfortable and we saw several turtles while snorkeling. The catamaran ride was exciting and the views of the island were breathtaking. This is a must activity for anyone visiting this island.

2.5-Hour Turtle Snorkel Tour with One Cocktail - Waikiki Rainbow Sail Catamaran
Mana Kai Turtle Snorkel Tour
Reviewed by: Disappointed!!!, 2021/10/31I would not recommend snorkeling with this company. The captain implied turtles would be all around us--we only saw a couple turtles after everyone was out of the water and only saw a few fish while snorkeling. Also, flotation devices were defective--they kept deflating while in the water. Lifeguard apologized for bad snorkeling spot and defective equipment. Save your money and don't snorkel here!

Captain Bob's Kaneohe Sandbar Snorkel & BBQ Lunch with Free Transportation
Amazing Experience
Reviewed by: Matasa, 2021/10/28This was one of the best experiences I’ve ever had on a vacation. It was priced right, just the right amount of time, super amazing staff/guides, and the best value all around. The boat ride is peaceful and quick. The sandbar was amazing and gives you enough time to meet others or practice your snorkeling skills. Seeing the turtles was so exciting and plentiful. The actual snorkeling was really the highlight. It was absolutely beautiful. If you visiting Honolulu this is a must-do activity!

サンドバー キャプテンブルース 天国の海®︎シュノーケリングクルーズ SUPや浮き輪などレンタルアイテムも！＜午前・午後／日本語クルー＞
想像とは違ったかな。
Reviewed by: 波瑠子, 2021/10/28潮の関係もあると思うがサンドバーが全然出ていなかった。腰ぐらいの水位があった。シュノーケルも
そのサンドバーで行う為、浅くて魚が全然いない。
ウミガメはおろか魚すらみられなかった。。２時間半フリーの時間は退屈だった。タートルウォッチも
もう少し船を違う場所に行っても良いのでは？と感じた。パドルボートを貸してもらえたのは楽しくて良かった。船上のスナック、ジュースは皆たくさん食べて飲んでました。ちなみに日本語での案内は全くありません。
キャプテンブルース天国の海ツアーです。この度は数あるツアーの中から弊社をお選びいただいたにも関わらず、ご期待にお応えできなかったことを心よりお詫び申し上げます。サンドバーでの自然条件に関わらず、頂いたご意見を元に今後のツアー内容・サービスの向上を目指して参りますので、またの機会にぜひお越しいただけますと幸いです。貴重なご感想をいただきありがとうございました。

Shark Diving Hawaii - Cageless Pelagic Snorkel Tour with FREE Photos & Videos
Crew was great, saw two sharks but it was a great experience.
Reviewed by: Joey S, 2021/10/23Careless shark diving was a great experience.
No GoPros allowed on this trip but they take photos for you and some videos.
We saw two sharks on this trip and sandbar and a Galapagos but they were very active and would come very close, but you can also see them 80 yards down, because the water is clear.
The last 10 minutes you are somewhat free to dive down and swim with them.

A fun experience
Reviewed by: Barry, 2021/10/22Very convenient as we stayed at the Outrigger, a stones throw from where we boarded the vessel. Crew was very friendly and that always helps. Confused about flippers. Posting on web site said they are not provided by yet they were given out on the ship. I’m glad, made snorkeling a lo easier. Turtles were fun to watch. Only wish we saw more of the reef. Had a very good time.

Captain Bruce Kaneohe Sandbar Cruise with SUP, Guided Snorkel & Transportation
Family vacation
Reviewed by: JAM, 2021/10/22Came with a large party which consisted of small children. My little ones cried A LOT during the boat ride and I felt really bad, but the two gentlemen working were more than understanding. They provided free drinks, chips and snorkels for everyone and we were also able to bring our own. The tour itself was amazing! The Hawaiian ocean is breathtaking. We definitely want to return when our little ones are a bit older and hopefully they won’t cry next time around!
Aloha JAM, Breathtaking ended! Thank you so much for joining us and shared your experience with us. Hopefully next time will be more relaxing
