Ocean Kayaking

Big Island Ocean Adventure

These guided tours offer local color and history to enhance your kayaking experience. There's nothing like a quality guide to bring an otherwise mundane experience to life and tickle one's imagination with tales of local lore and legend.

The tour features open-deck kayaks: boats uniquely designed for your enjoyment in Hawaiian waters. Stable and easy to enter and exit, these boats are ideally suited for ocean paddling and snorkeling.

Marine Mammals commonly seen on the trips include Hawaiian spinner dolphins, sea turtles, and humpback whales (winter).

The conditions are typically better in the morning with more sun and less wind. Snorkeling is incredible! Brightly colored tropical fish will delight you, and the water is warm. Occasionally an endangered green sea turtle or spinner dolphin is encountered while snorkeling - we will maintain a proper distance away from the marine life to ensure we do not disturb them and this fragile ecosystem.

Morning 3 hour Guided Snorkel & Kayak Tour: Includes kayak gear -- double kayak, paddle, PFD, seatback, mask, fins, snorkel, drinks and snacks. (wetsuits available).
