Great first-time SUP experience!

Haochen_Z, Dec 2025

Stand-up paddleboarding turned out to be much harder than I expected, but my guide, Tomo, was incredibly adaptive and made the whole experience fun and enjoyable. He was patient, adjusted to my skill level, and tailored the experience to my preferences. We paddled out to a small island and enjoyed beautiful views and wildlife along the way, and he also shared lots of interesting stories and local insights about Kailua. It was a fun first-time paddleboarding experience, and I’d definitely recommend it to anyone thinking about giving it a try.

Best Day Ever

This place is so gorgeous. Even the drive from Waikiki was incredible. The tour company is extremely organized and professional and nice. My guide was personable and knowledgeable. I am 57 and overweight and I was still able to do it.

Would do again every day if I could!

I had a great day today with instructor Riki! He was a great teacher and we even managed to surf a few waves! Not only that, did he told me lots about the local area which was a nice extra touch. Would highly recommend
