Kaneohe Bay Sandbar Ocean Sports Adventure with Snorkel, Kayak, SUP & Live Music
Great experience!
Reviewed by: K Arihara
We had such a unique experience going to the SandBar. It was like having our own little beach area. They provided lunch in our package. Live music was played during our boat ride there and back. They provided kayaks, paddle boards, life vests and snorkel gear. They were a fun crew and i can tell they enjoy working together. They were eager to help teach about Hawaiian culture and boat safety. It was one of the trip highlights and i would highly recommend to anyone to do it. Just be mindful of the tide as certain times the tide can be very high to your chest or low to your knees.

Kaneohe Bay Sandbar Ocean Sports Adventure with Snorkel, Kayak, SUP & Live Music
おすすめです！生演奏がいい！！
Reviewed by: Tomo
日本の大手ツアー会社と提携している同様のツアーが満員で予約できなかったためこちらで予約しました。
結果的に大満足でした！船は大きくてトイレや更衣室もあり、ドーナツや飲み物のサービスも嬉しかった。天気があまり良くなく、水位も高かったのですが、十分に楽しめました。海に浮かぶラウンジも思ったよりのんびり出来て良かった。バナナボートは想像以上のスピードで何度か落ちそうになりながらも後ろの知らない人が支えてくれたりしてアットホームな雰囲気でした。行き帰りのハワイアンミュージックの生演奏がとにかくいいです。上手だし、ノリノリの外国の方がいてさらに盛り上がりました。こっそり置いてあるあったかい紅茶のサービスも冷えた体には助かりました。

Kaneohe Bay Kayak & Snorkel Self-Guided Tour [Tour Not Available]
It was the highlight of my vacation!
Reviewed by: Rob M
I can’t believe it took this long for me to try this excursion. It is an activity I will add to every visit to Oahu. The experience and view is like no other. I was a little worried because I have a younger child (11 yrs old) and we have been kayaking in the past but it only took us 35 minutes to get to the sandbar. Once the rust shook off we were able to get back in 25 minutes. The people on-site were very helpful and supportive. They made sure you had everything you need snorkel equipment, life vests, and dry bags. I would suggest the eight hour if you plan to snorkel at another location outside of the sandbar. That way you can conserve your energy for paddling back.
Aloha Rob! Thank you so much for joining us for a kayak and snorkel adventure! And thank you for taking the time to leave such an awesome review for us! We really appreciate that. Anytime we hear this was the highlight or your vacation and all the other high praise in this review, that is extremely gratifying for us and just great to hear. So stoked you had this kind of experience. I speak for everybody here when I say it was our pleasure to have you join us and we hope to see you again soon! Mahalo!

Highlight of the family trip
Reviewed by: STB
Beautiful scenery, super kind staff, wonderful music. Tried kayak, snorkel and it was so fun. Water was so clear, I could see fish so close it was beautiful. Only thing is the time could be longer. We got to the sandbar about 9:30 and left around 12pm. I wish I could have more time so I could try other activities like volleyball and paddle board. The boat was full with over 100 people but didn’t feel like it was packed. Especially when we got to the sandbar, people were more spread out. Overall, the tour was way better than expected and definitely want to do it again!! Thank you!

Best excursion ever !!
Reviewed by: Valerie Bayley
My daughter Crystal and I went to the Kaneohe sandbar on July 26. Although it started with a little rain, it didn't damper (pun intended, lol) our adventure. We were greeted by a great team on board the catamaran. Especially Jesse, such a wonderful guy. He and another band member sang and played great music to and from the sandbar. Everyone were such fun and really made us feel special. We celebrated Crystal's birthday. We even were surprised with a private tender boat ride to go see a beautiful sea turtle very close to our boat. So fantastic! Thank you all for a unforgettable day.

E Sea Diver 5-in-1 Fun Cruise - Snorkel, Water Slide, Trampoline, Kayaks & SUP
Afternoon Deluxe Snorkel and water sports package experience
Reviewed by: Angela
Luna, Alex, Evan and Capt. Eric (All the crew) were terrific, super friendly and overall helpful. It was such a enjoyable, fun, memorable experience especially if you are booking this with kids. The only thing is to make sure that you bring snacks or food aboard which they inform you about on their instructions as they only provide light snacks (protein bars, water, and lemonade)
Lastly, it can get really crowded on the boat. And so, check in as early as possible to secure your spot inside the boat especially if you are traveling with your family.

Kayaking
Reviewed by: Shellley
This was such a blast! My daughter and I rented a tandem canoe and spent a glorious day around the reef fields. We would come up on a drop off, drop anchor in a shallow area and then just turn on the GoPro and swim down the reef wall with the schools of fish as our guides. Many different species of fish, a few octopus, and sea snakes. We could also hear the “crackling” of the coral (which sounds like Rice Krispies in milk), which was something you can’t appreciate when you’re in large groups of people because of the noise. Amazing experience— would do it again, but be sure and bring your “reef safe” sunscreen.
Aloha Shelley! Thank you so much for joining us for a kayak and snorkel adventure! And thank you for taking the time to leave this amazing review and photo. That is really great and we appreciate it very much. Stoked to hear you had this kind of experience kayaking and snorkeling with us and saw so much marine life. Kane'ohe Bay is great for that and I'm glad you had a great experience of it. Also, thank you for the REEF SAFE sunscreen PSA. Very, very important. We are very appreciative of that kind of feedback. Hope to see you again soon! Mahalo!

Booking was very easy and they did a nice job of working with us since not all of our parties made it on the same boat at first. It was not the nicest day but the crew on board did there best to keep up safe and allow us to have fun at the same time. I loved that the had live singing as well as lunch for everyone. Another plus was that there was restrooms. I couldn't complain about all of the different activities that we could do. Book the banana ride ahead of time is my only tip!

Kualoa Ranch Private Beach at Secret Island - Kayak, SUP, Volleyball & More
Full day with food
Reviewed by: TK
The staff was outstanding and fun. The 10-minute boat ride was informative and not bad at all for those afraid of seasickness.
The pesto chicken wrap that came with the full day package was dry, it needed extra dressing. The included activities (kayak, paddle board, etc..) were good. Beach volleyball nets and balls were ok (bring your own ball if you have it), the sand had a lot of hard marble-sized cones from the surrounding trees, tough on the feet - good shade though.
