 From
the sea you can see everything.
The
calm waters, abundant sea life, great snorkeling, fantastic canoeing, picturesque sea caves
and beautiful weather surrounding the Big Island of
Hawaii make it an ideal location for Big Island kayaking and canoeing companies to
operate a variety of Hawaii kayak and canoe tours. The
most exciting locations for kayaking and canoeing are to be found off the
Kailua Kona coast
of the Big Island. Here in the lee of the giant
volcanoes of Mauna Loa and Mauna Kea the tranquil waters are crystal
clear and teeming with sea life. Don’t be surprised to see dolphins,
turtles, perhaps a manta ray or even enjoy whale watching in season.
Snorkeling is particularly great as well and is done right from your
kayak.
Paddle - Canoe your way to Paradise with one of our Big Island Kayaking
tours. These kayaking packages are not your whitewater Canoe
experiences, they are the serine beautiful nature loving canoeing and
kayaking experiences that only the Big Island of Hawaii has to offer.
One
of the great Big Island kayaking and snorkeling spots off the Kailua Kona coast is the
famous Keaehou coastline. A number of kayak, canoe, and eco tour
companies paddle their way along this historic (Captain Cook was killed
here) and beautiful coastline complete with rugged sea cliffs and
spectacular sea caves. Some companies even allow a supervised version of
cliff diving when the conditions are considered safe enough. |

SNORKELING FROM THE BEACH - Discover the joys of Snorkeling on the
beautiful Kailua Kona Coast of the Big Island of Hawaii.
From a canoe you can paddle and relax when you get away from the street noise and congestion of
the tourist areas and into the beauty and serenity of nature! Snorkeling
is a wildlife experience and adventure that allows you to see what most
others never see; intriguing coral formations, underwater lava
formations, colorful and unusual tropical fish, endangered sea turtles
and if you are fortunate - spinner dolphins or humpback whales - from a
distance respecting the mammals need to remain wild & undisturbed.

Big Island canoeing and kayaking destinations & equip you with what you will need on the trip.
Drinks & snacks are included on all our guided adventures. We have

GUIDED KAYAK AND SNORKEL ADVENTURE - Beginners Welcome. Difficulty
level: EASY/MODERATE. This Big Island snorkeling adventure is one of the best trips

snorkeling and the largest coral reef on the Big Island and paddling
along beautiful Hawaiian beaches. Every trip has great snorkeling with
views of coral gardens, tropical fish and sea turtles. Spinner dolphins
are also regularly seen as are humpback whales during whale season.
Getting to the snorkel site should be as much fun as snorkeling— so you
will paddle to the area by sea kayak. Stable, sit-on-top kayaks make the
trip comfortable and not too challenging for the novice in canoeing. During
this sea trek you will be provided with mask and fins and wet suit upon
request. Snorkeling, paddling, and kayaking instruction as well as beverages and
snacks are also included on this adventure. Approximate timing is from
