Kailua Bay 2-Hour Guided Kayaking Tour with Lunch - Explore Tide Pools & More!
super windy
Reviewed by: michelle s.
The last time I went kayaking was at Catalina Island, we didn't even get wet. I was not prepared for this adventure at all. It was a lot of work I could not have done it without my husband. There was a single girl in our group it was her first time and she had a really tough time. It was soooo windy, they don't call it the windward side of the island for fun apparently. The guides were great. Helpful, friendly, and encouraging. But the wind was horrible. Maybe we were really just there on an unusual day but you may want to check and see about other kayaking adventures I hear the secret island one is awesome. The lunch was quite yummy, it was sandwich wraps, soda, chips, water, and granola bars too. The beach we stopped at was pretty and the snorkeling was fun but it was hard to see much. When we made it to the island and got out of our kayaks a huge gust of wind came and the sand hit our legs like a sandblaster! Not cool. When we walked around to the backside of the island

ハワイでパラセーリング 高さ120m／150mの上空からワイキキとダイアモンドヘッドの絶景を鑑賞！＜ヒルトン・ワイキキ＞
楽しかったです☆
Reviewed by: 匿名希望
ハワイに行くのは5回目でしたが、パラセイリングは初めてでした。上空にいる時間は10分ぐらいですが、モーターボートは進むのが早く、ホエールウォッチングも兼ねて乗っていられるので楽しいです。空の上では進むのがゆっくりので、下から見ていると結構高くまで上がっているのですが、全く恐くありません。揺れもありませんでした。もう一度やりたいです。

Hawaiian Parasailing Tour & Adventure from Waikiki Beach [800ft & 1000ft Lines]
A Truly UPLIFTING experience!
Reviewed by: Living in Waikiki
I've lived in Waikiki for the last 5 years, a block from beach, and watched the para-sailers every day. It was always on my to do list but I never made the time. After finally doing it, I wish I had done it sooner! It's such a fun and beautiful experience. Not only do you get to parasail, you get the boat ride and the view of Waikiki from the ocean! We also saw whales jumping which was really the icing on the cake. Being able to float above Waikiki was scenic and peaceful and a rush, all at the same time. The crew is very talented and a make the experience fun as well. What an amazing feeling as you lift off the back of the boat and gently float up. A must do!

Kailua Bay 2-Hour Guided Kayaking Tour with Lunch - Explore Tide Pools & More!
A great way to spend the day!
Reviewed by: Living in Waikiki
I have lived in Waikiki for the last 5 years and always wanted to Kayak but never tried. My son took me on this great Kayak outing and we really enjoyed ourselves! I'm 46 and was a little concerned about being in good enough shape to handle Kayaking in the ocean, but the Kailua beaches are protected by coral reefs and the waves were never a problem. The area is gorgeous and being able to paddle out to bird sanctuary was a real treat. The folks at Oahu Kayaking are very friendly and knowledgeable. Watching the video before we set out helped to put my fears at ease. This is a perfect activity for singles, couples, families or even a quiet solo outing. All in all, a great way to spend the day!

Self Guided tour, 4hr
Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous
I took my wife on a self guided, 4hr, tour. The location was fairly easy to find with the help of GPS. About 45 min, with traffic, from Ewa Beach. Anyway, the staff was very helpful and welcoming upon arrival. After signing required paperwork ( hazard waiver and such) we were shown an 8 min video of the area where you may take your kayak. For first timers, doing a self guided tour, I suggest paying attention to the video as there are several key area's that will assist in your adventure, especially on how to approach one of the islands you may visit, as there are merging swells in the center of the landing area of the islands. The walk to the staging area is not far and so if you drove, I suggest leaving your vehicle at the venue parking lot as there is minimal parking where you pick up your kayak. I also suggest to either commit to going all the way to the bigger islands or going to the closer "Flat Island" and then proceding to snorkle at the next beach area, as the islands are quite

Wonderful
Reviewed by: Bev
My daughter and I thoroughly enjoyed the parasailing. It was a tremendously relaxing feeling for both of us. We took the 1000 ft. line and would do it again. Captain Duncan and crewman Kevin were both jovial and attentive to detail. Felt safe at all times.
I highly recommend buying the pictures.

Hans Hedemann Waikiki Surfing Lessons - Honolulu's Best Surf School
Fun Experience!
Reviewed by: EYSL
We went on our Honeymoon and this was one of the activities that we have done. If this is your first time surfing, don't fret. The staff are professional and they teach you all the basics. Opt for the private lessons because if you are tired from paddling, the instructor can help you back to the waves hence more opportunity for you to keep on practicing to get better. The photographer was great as well as he managed to capture some great photos and you can get them all in a disc which was nice. Highly recommended...

ハンズ・ヒーデマン サーフィンレッスン
NO1でしょう！
Reviewed by: pinky犬子
半分ハワイに在住してます。
お友達がハワイに来るのに際して、サーフィンをやりたいということで申し込みました。
自分は波乗りをするのですが教えるほどの技量や体力がないので友達の為に申し込みました。
実際にサーフィンは波取り合戦が（縄張り？）があるので、ここは老舗で文句なしの状態でレッスンを受けれます。
どの先生にあたっても、ほとんどの人が立てますし、まだ立ててない人がいると集中的に手伝ってくれたりと、かなり良心的だと思います。

疲れるけど楽しい！
Reviewed by: いときち
バスで送迎してもらえて、現地に着くと午前中はビーチで自由時間。
午後になるとカヤックについてのインストラクションを受けて出発！
ちなみに午前中はボディボードとか借りられます。
でもお隣の現地人女性は同じ波でスーッと乗るのに自分はなかなか乗れませんでした・・・
お昼はお弁当かピザか選べます。
ピザは美味しかったけどおっきかったです。
カヤックは往復ビーチまで自分たちで運ぶので大変です。
正直女性二人は厳しい。
力持ちの男性と行きましょう。
私は細い彼といったがために、帰り運ぶときに手伝ってぎっくり腰になりました。
でもカヤック自体は楽しいし、ウミガメも近くに来るし、天気が良ければ最高！！
とにかくよく焼けるので、気になる女性は長袖パーカーは帽子、日焼け止めなど万全にしていきましょう。

とにかくビーチや海の美しさが素晴らしいです！
風が相当強かったのですが、それもまた楽しい、といった感じ。
午前中はビーチ付近で自由行動、午後にシーカヤック。
実際に漕いでいるのは2時間ほどで、当初の目的地は目の前のフラットアイランド。余裕があれば、お隣りのラニカイビーチまで。
ラニカイビーチがまた素晴らしい美しさでしたので、余裕がある方はオススメ。
シーカヤックで波乗りもさせてもらいました。
初体験でしたが、なんとか成功！
ハワイならではのアクティビティで、オススメです！

超特大のサーフボードを使ってのサーフィンレッスン、
当たり前のように沖に行って1度目で立てました。

なんだか初めから簡単すぎて拍子抜けでした。
レッスンはショップから徒歩5分の場所で
2時間はあっ~という間でしたが、
すぐ下にサンゴ礁がある上でのレッスンだったので、落ちたくない一心でした。
旦那は足にケガしてしまいました。

Great Kayaking Tour!
Reviewed by: Donald
This was an oustanding tour. Although it was windy, the hard work was worth it. Visiting the off shore island was exciting, diving into the coral pool (Queen's Bath) was way cool, snorkeling over the coral reefs was great and seeing two Hawaiian Green sea turtles was magical! The only negatives were some of the masks leaked and my friend got a moldy sandwich (which was relaced). I would highly recommend this tour, but it's not for children.

Great workout!!!
Reviewed by: Carina
When you arrive at the establishment, everyone is very helpful. You watch a video of what to look forward to. Only thing I would have wished was for a small map that we could have taken with us, instead there's a big one on the wall. So what I did was take a picture of it with my camera. It's an easy walk to the beach, then you depart. It's great!! We opted for the bag, definitely do it, you can put everything you don't want wet in there. The views are great and you get a great workout for your arms, always a plus. Once you get to the islands, you get amazing views!! Some you can even snorkel in. Would be visiting again soon!

We had a stand up paddling lesson, and then went out on a guided tour. The instructors do a really good job at making sure you are comfortable with what you are doing, before you go out into the water. The coastline was so beautiful as we paddled by it. Stand up paddling feels like you are walking on water and it is really a unique experience.
