Sandbar excursion

Reviewed by: Lisa, Mary, & Linda, 2022/10/19

My two friends and I had an amazing time. The crew was amazing, friendly, informative, interactive, talked a lot with the participants, very engaging and informative about the wildlife. We’ll do it again for sure! Time flew, it was over before we knew it! ... snorkeling was great, paddle boarding exceptional, and just relaxing on the giant blue floating mat was the best! Will definitely do again!

Even with the rain it was still fun

Reviewed by: Annette, 2022/10/13

Amazing day even with the rain. Definitely coming back when it's sunny and low tide. Captain Robin and his team were super friendly, amazing and patient. Even with the rain there was plenty of fish and turtles to see. I'm not a strong swimmer and I need to touch the bottom (it's weird I know) but Captain Robin was so accomodating, calming, understanding and patient and took me out to the deep reef area on a floater device and I was able to see the fish and turtles. I'm glad he did and I'm glad he didn't push me when I tapped out early. True champion.
The vessel is clean and has plenty of snacks and hot and cold drinks if you don't want to take your own. You can take your own alcohol and they also have plenty of water toys, paddle boards, floatation devices in a seperate raft.
Make sure to bring cash to tip as they are definitely deserving of any gratuity and the experience is amazing as well. One I'll definitely do again when I'm back next time.
Thank you so much was a wonderful day.

Great Experience

Reviewed by: Sam H, 2022/09/17

This is my second time to the sandbar. The captain and his crew members are so nice and helpful. We got to play with SUP and pool float first, and then went to snorkeling with the crew members and saw three turtles. It was a fun experience.

amazing cruise/tour

Reviewed by: Geraldine and family, 2022/08/15

We had a wonderful experience. The staff on our boat was very welcoming and friendly. My niece said the staff of Capt Allen were very attentive as well when they were in the water. Kudos/ mahalo to Capt Ruben for assisting us to snorkel especially since we (me n my sis in law) don't know how to swim. Our driver was energetic and friendly. He even stopped at Leonards bakery for us and made awesome food recommendations on the way. We had an overall great experience! We look forward to coming again.

Amazing experience!

Reviewed by: Kevin, 2022/08/11

We booked this fairly last minute since both my wife and I are not swimmers but we saw great reviews even for beginners and they were right!

We had an amazing time and saw a lot of turtles and fish, Casey was nothing short of amazing!! He was guiding us and helped ease my wife's fear of the water so that she could enjoy snorkeling a bit, really appreciated the help and hospitality!

Thank you again captain Bruce for the wonderful experience!

Snorkel Adventure

Reviewed by: PDouble, 2022/07/24

The family and I (including 9 and 6 yo) accompanied Captain Bruce Tour Company to snorkel at Kaneohe Bay. This was money well spent, especially considering the length of time provided for snorkeling and paddleboard equipment. The masks seemed clean and properly sanitized, the boat captain provided clear instruction and had sufficient staff on board and in the water to assist participants. Staff also knew where to find sea life, including turtles. Overall, excellent trip and value. A word of caution -- be alert for jelly fish.

Amazing!!

Reviewed by: Randilee , 2022/07/24

This was a phenomenal experience. The guides were great and the environment was beautiful. I want to give a shout out to Captain Robin who helped me overcome my extreme fear of snorkeling. I really wanted to be able to snorkel but I’m scared of deep water. He worked with me and another woman who couldn’t swim and we were both able to enjoy ourselves and see so many fish and turtles. He was incredibly patient and kind and I’m so grateful!
