Kaneohe Bay Kayak & Snorkel Self-Guided Tour [Tour Not Available]

Great experience

Reviewed by: Brittney

Amazing views and saw sea turtles! Great experience and the instructor was very helpful. She told us exactly where to go and where not to go. She even pinned the locations on our phones which was super helpful. We did the whole day tour and it was worth it. Great time.

North Shore Clear Bottom Kayak Tour & Turtle Watch from Haleiwa Beach

False advertisement

Reviewed by: Julio C

First and foremost, I have to give a shout-out to Ramsey because he was great. The kayak and experience itself was complete garbage. I was under the impression that we’d be at this beautiful blue sandbar in a glass kayak seeing all these beautiful turtles and looking at the gorgeous sea life underneath us. Come to find out, we would be kayaking at a disgusting creek with dead turtles and the nastiest water I’d ever be in with bubbles included. I watched a YouTube video where they advertised this website with a person on a beautiful blue ocean looking at sealife with this glamorous glass kayak. Meanwhile, I get a hazy plastic kayak with dead turtles in a bubbling green creek. Worst case of false advertising that I’ve EVER come across. I had to quit the excursion early because I was so disgusted and disappointed. I would NOT recommend this trip to anyone. Complete waste of time and money

I survived the Mokes!!!

Reviewed by: Felipe

Awesome experience. I survived the Mokes. It was a long kayak ride from the main canal to the Mokes, very challenging but worth it. By returning the kayak gears and eating the lunch that was included, I also could get a bike which was awesome to ride around the beach.

Kaneohe Bay Kayak & Snorkel Self-Guided Tour [Tour Not Available]

Disappointed

Reviewed by: Disappointed

The maps are not helpful. Once out of the cove, it was hard to find the landmarks to orient ourselves. Did not see any fish or turtles while snorkeling. The wind was so strong and guides did not give advice on how to navigate in high winds- were paddling hard on right side trying to go left but kayak continued to go right. Upon finally making it back to the cove the guides did not get up from their seats, didn’t assist us getting out of kayaks and just told us to put the paddles and life jackets back ourselves.
Would not recommend.

Reply from activity provider

Aloha. I am sorry to hear that you had a disappointing experience kayaking and snorkeling with us. And sorry that you did not find our map or our staff's instructions helpful. Was there any information missing from our map or anything that we could have added to the map to make it more helpful? Any feedback would be appreciated as we would love to improve if possible. Unfortunately we can never guarantee wildlife sightings. The animals are always there, you just have to be in the right place at the right time. I'm sorry that they weren't there for you that day. And although we are in the flattest bay on the island, we are still exposed to the wind and conditions, and there is almost always wind involved in ocean kayaking. But very sorry again that overall your experience was disappointing.

Kaneohe Bay Kayak & Snorkel Self-Guided Tour [Tour Not Available]

Amazing experience!

Reviewed by: Dara

I absolutely enjoyed the experience. I wasn't able to see too many sea life, however, that didn't take away from the overall fun at all. I personally have a mild fear of the deep ocean, so going too far out into sea in a kayak frightens me. But it would be a miss opportunity for me to not try this at least once while on vacation. My only criticism is that the kayaking zone is a little confusing to figure out, so I felt it was too mixed up with the commercial zone and the military zone. The zone marker was hard to figure out so my group just follow other groups instead.

Aloha Dara! Thank you so much for joining us for a kayak and snorkel adventure! Thank you also for taking the time to leave such an awesome review for us. We really appreciate that. I am very glad to hear it sounds like you had a great time kayaking with us and conquered your fears a little bit! That's great. I know it is a big bay and without a lot of markings or anything, we do our best with the map, but sometimes it is hard to figure out. Thank you so much again, we hope to see you again soon! Mahalo!

オプションで買った写真が真っ暗で悲しかった

Reviewed by: ごまごま

新婚旅行で初のパラセイリングに参加しました。記念にと思い、アクティビティ終了後に、写真を40ドルで追加購入しました。その際はアップで撮っていただいた飛ぶ前後の写真を数枚見せてもらい、それはフラッシュがたかれ顔がわかる写りで撮れていたので購入しましたが、購入後見てみると、殆どの写真の被写体が真っ暗で上手く撮れていませんでした。あいにくの曇り空で小雨が降っていたせいもあると思いますが、カメラの設定を調整するなど工夫をして欲しかったです。
40ドルもしたので写真は残念でしたが、アクティビティ中のスタッフの対応は良かったです。

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.

wonderful experience.

Reviewed by: Angie

our rental day provided anything we could have possibly wanted for our entire beach day. we used the kayaks and a cooler first and had a blast going out to the island. we then borrowed boogie boards and the waves that day were awesome. Definitely look them up. we spent all day there on the beach and didn't have to bring a thing with us. Lunch was even provided, we had the pizza, huge slices and pretty tasty. Easy to check in, they make sure you're safety informed and they have helpers on the beach. 10 out of 10.

  • a little trip to put in spot but kayak carts make it easy.

  • out in the water....look how blue!

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!

Reviewed by: るるぶ

受付の小屋で名前を言ったら、まだボートが戻ってなくて少し待ちました。腕か時計にシールを貼ってもらい、安全の誓約書にサインしてボートに乗り込みます。もうこの時期はマスクする人もいないですが、海の上なので気にならないです。
ボートに同乗する人で順番に空に舞い上がりますが、オプションで$200の写真をとるか聞かれましたが、ゴープロがあるのでつけませんでした。
どこまでも続く空と海を堪能して、着水サービスもありながら、ボートをかっ飛ばして帰ったのは素晴らしい体験でした。
注意として$20の現金がチップとして必要です。

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!
