Kaneohe Bay Kayak & Snorkel Self-Guided Tour [Tour Not Available]
Unforgettable experience
Reviewed by: Shiela
I am impressed by how organized the entire check-in process was - after checking in, we were directed to receive instructions from one of the workers before heading down to get our gear and get launched in the water.
The day of our activity was very windy, so the workers made sure we understood all the landmarks, dos, and don'ts. It was my first time kayaking in the middle of the ocean. And even though I was scared, I felt safe knowing everyone was an expert with what they were doing.
We saw a big turtle while paddling back to the shore. What an experience! I definitely recommend to book your activities through Veltra.

Kaneohe Bay Sandbar Ocean Sports Adventure with Snorkel, Kayak, SUP & Live Music
Such a great experience
Reviewed by: Shu
We originally booked a self-guided kayaking trip to the sandbar with another company but decided to switch to the cruise last minute. Best decision ever! We had a blast with the activities and the musicians did a fantastic job keeping everyone excited. With a pregnant family member we felt safe snorkeling with a very responsible lifeguard watching us. Every crew member had a cheerful sprit which definitely was contagious. Kudos to the crew and we will be coming back next time we visit Oahu. Mahalo.

A fun time
Reviewed by: Kylie
Loved the snorkeling. The staff was amazing. Very helpful and friendly. The scenery was incredible. I took off one star because some of the lifejackets had mysterious stains on them. I would say this is mostly for people 18-30. It was a young crowd.

The crew was amazing, so fun and engaging! The experience itself and the activities were fantastic, most memorable part of our vacation. Most definitely recommend to anyone visiting the island. From the sandbar, to the turtle watching, and the snorkeling, this tour did not disappoint. My 11 year old had a great time and says it was the highlight of our vacation. It was for sure an unforgettable experience that my family and myself will treasure forever!

Snorkeling adventure
Reviewed by: Nisa Johnson
This was a great adventure. I have never snorkeled, so this was very exciting. It was a little scary getting in the 40foot water to swim to the coral. But once I was near the coral, it wasn't bad. I would have liked to see more fish and turtles, but there could have been many reasons why we didn't see that many. What I would have liked to have was more time snorkeling. I felt it was too short. Even though I was still scared to be in the water. I had my husband to hold onto. I did enjoy seeing the fish. I also would have liked for them to play a little music. Just to get the energy going. Not too loud, but a little something would have been nice. Otherwise, all the members of the crew were extremely nice and knowledgeable. I felt very comfortable with them. It was a great adventure, I definitely would recommend it.

Would definitely do it again
Reviewed by: Georgia
Amazing morning - everything was every smooth & easy from the pickup to the drop off. Unfortunately for us weather was on the dreary side but we still had a great morning.
They take you snorkelling also which is great for anyone who has never snorkelled! Was a great way of seeing the bay & the island.
Thank you so much for joining our tour and spending your time for leaving the review!
We are glad that even though you still had a good time during the tour.
Please come back and we look forward to taking you to the Kane'ohe bay again, Thank you!

Kaneohe Bay Kayak & Snorkel Self-Guided Tour [Tour Not Available]
Kool Kayak Experience!
Reviewed by: May
My boyfriend and I purchased the kayak/snorkeling experience and it was quite the memory! Everyone was great helping us get set up and guiding us! When we went out and kayaked we saw so many different fishes during our snorkeling adventure! The crazy part was that it started raining while we were far out and snorkeling. Instead of kayaking back we continued to snorkel until the rain stopped! For the price and experience it was totally worth it!
Also I recommend purchasing the 4 hour experience because I don’t think you will be out for the whole 8 hours even tho it costs just a little bit more! We were our a max of 2 hours!
If you’re wondering on whether or not to purchase think no more! Overall it was an amazing experience and I highly recommend it! Also booking this package will prepare you for everything vs booking on the actual business site since this package has a dry bag, snorkeling gear, and the anchor (this will keep your kayak in place while you’re snorkeling). Hope this helps and you make great memories from this experience!
Aloha May! Thank you for joining us for a kayak and snorkel adventure! And thank you for taking the time to leave this great review for us. Your feedback is very valuable and much appreciated. I’m certainly glad to hear you had a great kayak and snorkel experience with us, and we hope to see you again soon. Mahalo!

Kaneohe Bay Sandbar Ocean Sports Adventure with Snorkel, Kayak, SUP & Live Music
Satisfying!!!
Reviewed by: DaNaMeyRie Roque
The place is really nice and the boat is clean and safe. The staff are very accommodating and friendly, they gave us detailed instructions and safety reminders. They guided us until we completed our activities.
Me and my 3 girls get there 15 minutes before 9am (few minutes window for us to get the free parking spot and signed the waiver forms).
We reserved the morning all in package and it was satisfying and activities are worth the price.We purchased food at General Store and Deli which is next to the boat docking area. We waited for 4 more groups and the boat moved forward at 9:30am. The live music entertainers were great and they sang really well and made us felt comfortable through out our entire stay. (They have jars for the cash tips so bring some for them coz they deserved it).
The rest of the water activity crews were all friendly and remindful, specially Shyla. She made us felt satisfied with our banana boat and water tubing (flat float). (Follow her advises). Snorkeling was great and found different kinds of fishes. (Be careful not to get hurt from the corals, wear appropriate attire for protection). The kayak and paddle boat crews are very nice, they kept eye on everyone’s safety. We played volleyball but a bit windy so pick the good weather. There were water, orange juice and donuts with 3 different flavors and you can bring your own food and drinks (no glass containers or bottles allowed). It was fun and unforgettable. Thank you!

This was a nice boat and tour. We got to see one or two sea turtles. Honestly the water was kind of murky and you don't get to see colorful fish but you do see generic silver ones. We really liked that the drinks were included though and the staff were very helpful, informative and friendly!

Kaneohe Bay Kayak & Snorkel Self-Guided Tour [Tour Not Available]
Beautiful Reef, very windy day
Reviewed by: M. Graham
First off, the day turned out to be very windy and a little rainy and therefore want the best kayaking weather, but they did offer us a refund or reschedule. It was out last day and we didn’t have anything better to do so we stayed.
The guys getting our kayak and gear gave us some information about where to go and a little about the kayaks (hope to anchor them, out the heaviest in back), but nothing really about paddling or steering especially in the windy conditions. We had some idea, so it wasn’t too bad, but a little more direction would have been helpful.
Once on the water, it was choppy and a hard kayak, but we pushed through. It was hard to anchor in the sand because we had two anchors for three kayaks and the wind was too strong. We ended up tying all three to the two anchors and that worked. The spot was great to snorkel in (We went to horseshoe bend? It was the spot recommended for snorkeling). The coral was beautiful and on a clearer day would be gorgeous. There were fish, but it was harder to get close up to see them with life jackets on. We did see a giant fish and a huge turtle walk right under me. It was pretty cool.
A little more guidance on the kayaks and ensuring everyone has tips on paddling in currents and waves and’s provide defogger for the snorkeling and it would be great. Thank you!
Aloha! Glad to hear you still had a good kayaking and snorkeling experience on a day with some tough conditions. All good feedback that we really appreciate. Thank you so much. Hope to see you again soon! Mahalo!

Waikiki Snorkel with Turtles Cruise with Beers & Cocktails - Ke Kai Catamaran
Excellent!
Reviewed by: Jeannie R.
With a professional, friendly staff, our snorkel tour was excellent! We were promptly greeted and got on board. The staff offered us water or soft drinks as we waited for the rest of the passengers to board. There was nice seating all around, and you can bring along a bag with your towel, phone, whatever. They gave us plenty of directions and offered us snorkel gear, but we brought our own that we had rented. They also provide inflatable life vests. While we were snorkeling, they kept a sharp eye on us, ready to help with any mask issues or otherwise. There were lifeguards both in the water and on deck, but it was easy swimming. The turtles were all around, with colorful fish as well. We snorkeled for maybe an hour, then got back on board - the mai tais hit the spot after having salt water in your mouth! I would definitely recommend this tour to a friend. In fact, my daughter was wishing I had booked two tours while we were in Hawaii!

Would be fun on a nice day!
Reviewed by: Carly
This would be an amazing thing to do weather providing!!
The day we booked was overcast and windy, when we arrive there was a bulletin board with things to know noting you would not see the sandbar clearly that day. We checked in wnd the lady had told the people behind us who asked to rent kayaks that the water was quite rough and that if you are begginers it’s probably not a good day to go out. We were worried as beginners then… the water was so rough we got about 20 mins out and the wind was blowing us all over the place and every wave we hit felt like we were going to flip the kayak. We decided it was not safe and decided to go back. They wouldn’t even refund us considering the weather conditions so it was a complete waste of money unfortunately. If they would of let us switch dates we would of been happy to do that but they don’t allow you cancel unless they decide the weather isn’t good enough. Was super disappointing.
