Guided Oahu Kayak Tours

Enjoy a Guided Kayak Tour in Oahu!

This paddling tour takes place on calm, reef-protected waters on Kailua Bay, Oahu. One of our trained naturalists guides you along this beautiful coastal area to several close offshore islets. Along the way, you see our most important resident, the Hawaiian green sea turtle. Your guide, well-versed in Hawaiian history, marine life, and our island’s geological formations, tells stories and imparts thought-provoking information about Hawaii that most visitors would love to hear about.

You land your safe and stable sit-on-top kayak on one of two world-famous beaches, Kailua or Lanikai, for some snorkeling with our tropical fish and turtles. Your guide is also a master paddler and instructor, so you can learn the fun and safe way to paddle your kayak. If you choose to, our guide can even teach you how to catch a few waves.

You also stop at several of our close offshore islands, where you can enjoy swimming and relaxing on white sandy beaches while sea and shorebirds flock overhead and nest nearby. The windward coast of Oahu has over 12 varieties of seabirds inhabiting this flourishing coastline. While on the island, you gently trek to natural pools or a breathtaking cove. This is a day enjoyed by all.
