Captain Bruce Kaneohe Sandbar Cruise with SUP, Guided Snorkel & Transportation
Worth every penny!!
Reviewed by: Steve
I would rather get this trip than limited tour Hanauma bay snorkeling, i know it s pricier than Capt Bruise tour, but the service they provide you and any accommodation is just worth it so much. Capt Batman (That s what he preferred to be called) and Robin was very kind enough to provide assisted snorkeling tour to those were afraid to see the reef. Amazing guys! You will see their heart so passionate for customers!
Hi Steve, thank you so much for taking the time to write these wonderful review of yours. Your feedback is greatly appreciated and we look forward to seeing you again.

Awesome Crew
Reviewed by: Millicent Marquez
From shuttle service to tour, everyone was awesome! Our driver, Sky, to Franky and Captain of the boat, Zi and her crew, they were all great!
The best experience is when Zi was able to convince my partner to go snorkeling by the reef. She guided her with the paddling board and this is her first experience swimming in the deep blue sea!
Aloha and Mahalo kindly for the compliments. On behalf of Cpt. Bruce, we thank you so much for this amazing review.

サンドバー キャプテンブルース 天国の海®︎シュノーケリングクルーズ SUPや浮き輪などレンタルアイテムも！＜午前・午後／日本語クルー＞
想像とは違ったかな。
Reviewed by: 波瑠子
潮の関係もあると思うがサンドバーが全然出ていなかった。腰ぐらいの水位があった。シュノーケルも
そのサンドバーで行う為、浅くて魚が全然いない。
ウミガメはおろか魚すらみられなかった。。２時間半フリーの時間は退屈だった。タートルウォッチも
もう少し船を違う場所に行っても良いのでは？と感じた。パドルボートを貸してもらえたのは楽しくて良かった。船上のスナック、ジュースは皆たくさん食べて飲んでました。ちなみに日本語での案内は全くありません。
キャプテンブルース天国の海ツアーです。この度は数あるツアーの中から弊社をお選びいただいたにも関わらず、ご期待にお応えできなかったことを心よりお詫び申し上げます。サンドバーでの自然条件に関わらず、頂いたご意見を元に今後のツアー内容・サービスの向上を目指して参りますので、またの機会にぜひお越しいただけますと幸いです。貴重なご感想をいただきありがとうございました。

Family vacation
Reviewed by: JAM
Came with a large party which consisted of small children. My little ones cried A LOT during the boat ride and I felt really bad, but the two gentlemen working were more than understanding. They provided free drinks, chips and snorkels for everyone and we were also able to bring our own. The tour itself was amazing! The Hawaiian ocean is breathtaking. We definitely want to return when our little ones are a bit older and hopefully they won’t cry next time around!
Aloha JAM, Breathtaking ended! Thank you so much for joining us and shared your experience with us. Hopefully next time will be more relaxing

Waikiki Morning Turtle Snorkel Sail & Tour from Kewalo Harbor - Hawaii Nautical
Amazing! So many turtles!
Reviewed by: Lauren
They weren't joking when they said "turtles sightings guaranteed" - I think we saw about 5 turtles at once, maybe more! The water was so clear that it made seeing everything, including eels and pufferfish, in the reefs so easy. The crew also found a sea urchin and an octopus that they brought up to the surface for us to see and learn about. They were a very fun group that made the experience easy and fun. We wanted to redo the experience all over again as soon as it was done! I highly recommend this experience to anyone visiting the area!

Best.Day.Ever
Reviewed by: Mommy_AT
Such a memorable experience for my family. The captain and his assistants were friendly and very knowledgeable about the island and the living creatures in and around it. I love how thoughtful the business is - simple things like plastic bins under the seats to make sure our things are kept dry, the drinks and snacks provided aboard, and the cleanliness in and around the boat. Loved every minute of our time there!

Worth It
Reviewed by: Gary
We booked this one instead of the self kayaking to the Sandbar, and it was definitely worth it. If you want the relaxing and chill experience, and have fun, book this one. Our captain/crew was super nice and great. They take you to the sandbar, which is super beautiful, and you hangout there for about 1-2 hours, they provide you with boards and water equipments so you don't have to bring your own. The snorkeling was pretty cool too, didn't see any turtles though but still beautiful and great experience.
Aloha Gary! Thank you so much for taking the time to write this wonderful review. Your feedback is greatly appreciated and we look forward to seeing you again. Mahalo!

Captain Bruce’s turtle snorkel tour was the best activity I’ve ever done in O’ahu. They were also really nice and fun! The sandbar was awesome and I saw turtles, fish, coral , and other marine life. They provided refreshments and light snacks like chips, fruit. I would do this again. And please wear reef safe sunscreen to help protect the coral and ocean animals.

Captain Bruce Kaneohe Sandbar Cruise with SUP, Guided Snorkel & Transportation
Really unique, beautiful experience
Reviewed by: Carlos
Our preference was to go at low tide and we had a blast. During snorkeling we even got to see some turtles. I believe we saw 4 individual tuetles.
The big surprise was the level of customer service. We were the only passengers with young kids and the staff was very accommodating to us. They were engaging to all the passengers but I was so impressed how they engaged my youngest (age 5) who can be a handful. If you have never gone to the sand bar the decision has to be to experience it as soon as possible. If you are deciding which company to take you out there, I recommend captain Bruce. It's clean, there are snacks, coffee, tea, a restroom, tons of water toys, and it's good for groups, couples and families.
Aloha Carlos, on behalf of Capt. Bruce, we thank you so much for your support! Your feedback is greatly appreciated and we look forward to seeing you in the near future.
Mahalo kindly.

Book early, fun trip! This was recommended to me by a coworker who visited a month before my family. Glad I took her advice, loved it! We were upgraded to a private boat and loved our guide. He took us to the regular spot as well as a more private spot. We got lucky and saw many honu both big and small. It also helped that the weather was perfect. Definitely will do this trip again next time we’re at this island.

Awesome experience! The crew were all knowledgeable and helpful, and they made everything so seamless! We even saw sea turtles and were able to spend some extra time snorkeling around them! Only con is that the location may be hard to find. They're located at the very back of the parking lot, and check in is on the actual boat along the deck. Would 100% recommend!

The Captain and the helper were very energetic and explained everything in detail. I had a fear from water depth and was scared to go to snorkeling with my kids.

A great day out at the sandbar

Never play at the sandbar before and this was SUPER FUN! the crew was fun yet professional. Perfect length of time to be at the sandbar. As for the snorkeling, it was good, but we got kicked non stop from the people in front of us, LOL. Not the crew's fault obviously. Just a note to self for next time, will give myself some space from the people in front of me. Just a suggestion, not sure it is feasible or not... adding slide will be better. But all in all, it was a great time and thank you for doing what you are doing!

We took the morning tour and we got a lot of time to snorkel and hung out with 3 sea turtles (with a safe distance away of course!).

Beautiful Sandbar but waves dependent on weather
Reviewed by: Mitch
We went out on a cloudy morning accompanied by showers. The waves were choppy too. The sandbar was beautiful despite the weather, didn’t see any turtles on the sandbar but my daughter and husband who went with the snorkeling group saw turtles by the reef. The current was stronger there though but Kevin, the tour guide made sure everyone was safe. There was not enough paddle boards nor floaties for everyone on board and some groups hugged theirs till the end. We shared our paddle board with another couple. Trevor was okay but he tended to give attention to certain groups whereas Kevin was the one whom I have noticed that was attentive to everyone.
Aloha Mitch, we're very sorry for the disappointment for not being able to see the turtles. Mostly they are in the reef area, sometimes it can be seen around the boat. Hopefully on your next visit, you'll see more turtles
