Best day on the island!
Reviewed by: Amy, 2011/02/16I went on Captain Bob's Snorkeling Adventure with 4 friends last week and we all agreed that it was the BEST day we spent in Hawaii. The crew was FANTASTIC; fun, entertaining, knowledgeable, laid back... perfect!
The ocean volleyball and snorkeling at our own reef was a welcome change from the crowds in Waikiki.
I highly recommend this trip to everyone visiting Oahu! We have all decided to bring our kids and do this trip again on our next visit to the island.
Thanks to Daniel-son, Jenner, Macho Taco, Kelly and the rest of the crew for a perfect day!
Love,
The Colorado Girls

Amazing time, Great experience
Reviewed by: Melissa, 2010/08/13I attended this snorkeling activity with my boyfriend (he had done it before and wanted to go again). Our tour guide on the bus was hysterical. So much fun and information was provided by him. I liked that he remained part of the experience by coming on the boat with us. The staffing was incredible as well. Tons of fun and very helpful. I was glad that they provided lunch as well. Quick and easy burgers, some fruit, sodas, etc. And of course, the snorkeling was beautiful! I would recommend it to anyone, of any age. If you can't swim, or haven't snorkeled, don't worry! They provide easy instructions to learn how to snorkel quickly, and they have both noodles and lifevests if you can't swim! You may even luck out and sight some sea turtles on your way to the reef!!! If you're considering this activity, go for it! You'll love it!

Fabulous Aquatic Adventure
Reviewed by: Jim K, 2010/07/14I initially booked this event for my ten- and seven-year-old grandkids. However, it turned out to be a terrific day for all three generations. The friendly crew of the Barefoot I made us feel welcome from the time we arrived at the dock. It was a very windy day, but, the catamaran was steady. The energetic, enthusiastic and entertaining crew covered the basics of snorkeling and equipment during our ten-minute cruise to the submerged sandbar in the middle of beautiful Kaneohe Bay. The sandbar stop was the perfect opportunity for first time snorkelers to practice in a comfortable environment and the waist-deep volleyball was a real hoot! The crew grilled our burgers and served lunch at the sandbar. Much to our surprise and delight our cruise director, Jenner, serenaded us with voice and guitar while we ate. During the ten minute sail to the snorkel site we saw a dozen or so green sea turtles. The beautiful coral reef was in a very isolated area in crystal clear waters. The area was teem

Most relaxing and unique time!
Reviewed by: Charity, 2009/09/12Captain Bob's was one of the highlights of our trip. The crew was very laid back and extremely helpful (served us beer in the water). One girl even got stung by a jellyfish and the captain carried her all the way back to the boat and immediately rendered first aid. 60 of us total and it was not crowded at all. Burgers were good, people were awesome and the snorkeling was spectacular. Saw a few turtles and other beautiful fish. Volleyball on the sandbar was pretty fun too!! All in all my husband and I really had a great time. Would highly recommend it to anyone!!!!!!!!

Beautiful scenery
Reviewed by: Danielle, 2009/04/27We really enjoyed the activity and the scenery was beautiful. It was great to view the island from a different vantage point. The friendly staff and food was great! It was definitely worth the money.You can be as active or as relaxed as you want to be.The staff was great with the kids.Unfortunately , it rained on our day so it kind of put a damper on things. The staff did their best to make it up to us. I would only recommend to bring extra clothes and a raincoat of some kind just in case.

Great trip!
Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous, 2008/11/11We booked this trip before we arrived on Oahu and were slightly nervous about going as we had never snorkelled before. However, the staff on the trip were very friendly and patient, the food was good and the actual snorkelling was amazing. We would definitely recommend this trip to anyone going to the island and we will certainly be snorkelling again - thanks very much for a great day!

Awesome x 3
Reviewed by: Kamela R., 2008/07/28We have done this trip 3 times and I would NOT go with anyone else! They guys are great - they make it fun ... the food is good but the snorkling is great! Even in bad weather the guys made it fun - it was a downpour to say the least and honestly they couldnt have cared less - basic opinion was: its warm, your in Hawaii, your gonna get wet anyway so lets do it drudda! Killer time. Went twice with the family including our 6yoa son who was 4yoa at the time and once with some friends and each time it was the same killer service and fun! Dont go any place else... im coming back in Sept 2008 and you knowwwww I will be making another trip...ummm do get I discount yet or what guys??? :)

Big Kudos to Captain Bob's Crew!
Reviewed by: Douglas & Carol Kidwell, 2007/11/21This was our 3rd trip to Oahu and the first time going out with Captain Bob. It was a well organized function with a superb crew! Having the first stop to the sandbar for volleyball was an excellent way for newbies to get used to snorkeling. It also allowed people to get acclimated to the water before getting into the snorkeling around the reef. Their choice in reef was nothing short of excellent! There was a large variety of fish to view to include several Moray Eels that swam about. The location also allowed a beautiful view of the Main Island and isolated islands off the coast. The only complaint is there was a young crew member who needed to pull up his bathing suit a little bit. He was a very nice young man & friendly with everyone but a bit more modesty would have been appreciated.
Overall, the event was great; everyone had an enjoyable time, and would recommend it to anyone visiting Oahu.
