Had the most amazing time!! The crew were so friendly and helpful! Uncle Sam (live music) deserves a record deal and is such an angel. Don’t miss out on the snorkeling! The reef was right by the boat, full of the most beautiful colors and active sea life! We saw sea turtles and one even swam by us! Would 100% do this again.

Our trip was fantastic! Gorgeous morning on the sand bar! The musicians were amazing and played all different styles of music. The entire crew were so attentive, helpful and kind and treated us with such aloha. A big mahalo especially to Captain Shila. This cruise was the best. Can't wait to go again.

Booked a tour with them to the Sandbar it was a great experience. We did the afternoon tour once on the boat they fed us lunch. At the Sandbar their lifeguards offered to teach you a little on how to Paddle board of Kayak. They staff was amazing we really enjoyed the excursion. The live music was a nice touch. I would recommend them to anyone. Word of advice not to do with Ocean sports but the pier. If you are driving yourself make sure to go early, parking is very limited to non towing vehicles.

My fiancee and I had a great experience on the sand bar. We played in the water and also went snorkeling in the reef. The musicians on the boat were great and did some amazing Fiji tributes. The whole crew was super nice and friendly. Also shoutout to Jason from Mendocino. He was one of the crew members and he provided excellent service. I can’t wait to do this tour again when I come back to Hawaii.

We went to join this tour about a week ago, but it was a gloomy day in the morning before we left the harbor and I almost regret that I chose that day🥲 However, the entertainer on the boat and also the crew members kept telling me that the weather in Hawaii could change in 10 min… Right after we reached the sandbar, a blue part appeared in the sky and in 5 min or so, it was a beautiful blue sky! We were able to see many big fishes while snorkeling, enjoyed kayaking and paddle boarding. Also the music on the boat was so entertaining! Every staff on the boat was so friendly, knowledgeable and very helpful. I definitely recommend you to join this tour if you travel to Oahu island!
