All Reviews for Watersports & Ocean Adventures

The 4 hour guided kayaking excursion was amazing! We had Matt and Andy and could not have asked for better guides! They made the entire excursion so much fun! My husband and I cannot wait to come back again!

Parasailing was a lot of fun. The staff was very friendly and funny. What keeps me from giving them a 5 star is that the pictures they take of you cannot be purchased individually. So if you want any of the pictures they take you have to buy all of them which starts at $30.

My boyfriend and I went parasailing to celebrate our anniversary, and it was awesome! The crew was polite, interactive, and entertaining, but at the same time safe and professional. The boat ride and the parasailing itself was lots of fun! I thought that it would be scary, but it was really easy and exciting and I wasnt that afraid at all. It was also romantic to parasail with my boyfriend, so this is a great activity for couples! (But friends and family as well.) I would suggest this activity to everyone, and would gladly do it again =]

Kayaking was fun -Cave was not quite what I had expected (much smaller, but impressive all the same) and I didn't think about the fact that I could not see while snorkeling due to not being able to wear glasses. Otherwise, tour guides were great and this was a very enjoyable way to spend time in the sun.

Bob was the best thing we did on the entire island! The staff was EXTREMELY friendly and made sure everyone had fun!!

LOVED Milo and Dee! Great times! Lots of wonderful local information and stories too.

Although we really enjoyed the beautiful setting and being on the water it would have been much more enjoyable if they had provided fins. The water was a little choppy and we weren't able to snorkle as long as we wanted because we were just too tired after all the paddling. Also, we weren't able to enter the sea cave because of the waves. I was hoping to see dolphins or turtles but I guess it wasn't our lucky day. The staff were very nice and helpful but I think there are better sites for snorkling.

We loved this event. What a wonderful view of the island. And it is so peaceful hanging over the water.

Spectacular way to view fish. Very relaxing & exciting at the same time. Felt very safe.

I THOUGHT KAYAKING WOULD BE HARD TO DO BUT IT WASN'T AT ALL. I LOVED IT. BE SURE TO GET THE BACK REST...IT MADE THE DIFFERENCE...

This was our family's first trip to Maui and we wanted it to be special for our two teenage boys. The day we were supposed to have the lessons turned out not to have the best surfing conditions, so they called us to reschedule. We really appreciated them wanting us to have a good experience with some success. As parents, we were very pleased with the care and attention for safety and detail. The class size was pretty small (only 5 or 6) so there was plenty of opportunity for individualized questions. They explained everything thoroughly and made sure the boys understood what they were doing. They both caught several waves and it completely made the trip for them. We came back a few days later to rent gear for them to surf one more time... they remembered all of the instruction and had a blast! Wonderfully nice people - there is also a photographer that can capture the moment you ride your first wave - memories worth paying the few extra bucks for!

This was my first time parasailing and it was a blast!! My husband and I will definitely do this again!

Firstly,at best my partner is a moderate swimmer, so she really isn't confident in the water.

We booked a 4 hour kayaking activity with some apprehension. I can honestly say it was the best day of our holiday.

Not only because Lanakai beach was fantastic but mainly because of the young staff, like Andy and Nick our guides. The staff don't wrap you up in cotton wool. They are young, laid back but professional if needed and full of local knowledge.

Super, super day. Many thanks. Mandy and Mark (UK)

I recommend this for anyone who is not afraid of heights. You can get a great view of the hotels in Waikiki and Diamond Head from the sea, and once you're up in the air, it's not as scary as you might think! The explanations are in English, but it's not a big problem if you don't understand them. As part of the service, you will fall into the sea once, so wearing a swimsuit and bringing a towel is essential. Also, it might be cold while you're waiting depending on the weather, so having a hoodie or something similar would be good.

高所恐怖症の方以外にはお勧めです。
ワイキキのホテル群やダイヤモンドヘッドが海上から一望できますし、上空に上がってしまえば思ったほど怖くないですよ！説明は英語ですが解らなくてもそれほど問題ありません。
サービスの一環？で一度海に落ちますので水着着用とタオルは必須です。あと待っている間天候によっては寒いかもしれませんのでパーカー等あればいいですね。

It was fun, but it was a very windy day! The seas were rough which made our parasailing very interesting! My husband, 6 year old and I flew together. I was squished in the middle and I also felt a bit sea sick. It wasn't as enjoyable as I thought because of the wind, but it was fun! The crew was wonderful!

I really enjoyed this trip, we didn't rent a car in Oahu and this was a great way to see the North Shore. We learned a great deal of Hawaiian history on the way up. And the town and Waimeia Beach are incredible. We snorkeled and swam in the waterfall at waimeia (?), it was a cool day but the water was temperate and so fresh - if you go to the waterfall swim in the lake surrounding it - its really wonderful. Bonzai Pipeline had no waves though so I'll have to go back in the winter.

Gave us a chance to spend more time at the North Shore (we stayed at Waikiki).

Two Virginians loved this excursion! We're so glad that we rode on a tandem kayak so we could switch on paddling. You need to be somewhat physically fit so you can keep up with everyone. We were soo lucky to see an off-season whale, as well as a pod of dolphins. I know it's up to mother nature to see these incredible creatures, but i would have still enjoyed the tour without seeing them. Highly recommended.

We had a great time surfing in Kauai. The water was a bit colder than expected, but the thrill of surfing the wave makes you forget about the temperature. Mahalo!

Our dream of surfing in the warm Hawaiian water has finally come true! We (first timers from midwest) were able to catch some wave, and if we can, you can. The instructor (sorry, forgot his name) was excellent. He made sure that everyone is safe and having fun during the lesson, and was full of information on where to eat, play, etc. Thanks!!!

We had a blast riding on a fast jetski! I didn't know you can go up to almost 50mph on water, and you have no traffic! I would do it again in a heartbeat!

Out of all the trips and activities we did on Maui, this trip was our favorite. The crew were so much fun and we saw some dolphins swimming with a whale family. We will never forget this fantastic experience!

This was one of the most beautiful activities I did while in Hawaii. It was great exercise and I would reccommend doing this with a partner. I did this by myself and I found it quite difficult, but then again I'm not in good shape at all. May be easier for someone who is in shape. The beaches are so beautiful that I ended up comming back on my own a few days later. Take an underwater camera because the view is great.

This was my first time snorkeling. The guide made it easy and fun. I want to do it again!

The parasailing was a lot of fun. You go up and you sit in the sky for about eight minutes. The views are amazing, but your time seems a little short. It's very relaxing though, and the staff was definatly having fun with their job. The only thing that was a little surprising was the fact that they advertised literally exactly how much they were expecting to be tipped. At least $20. Other then that it was alot of fun.

A very fun time with a nice tour guide and his family. Unique stops on the North SHore that most tour companies just drive by. Highly Recommended!

I've always wanted to be a certified scuba diver, and I'm so glad that I just decided to do it finally. The instructors at Aaron's Dive Shop were very professional and friendly, and they made the whole process easy. I had to do a bit homework but it was totally worth it, and I got to learn a lot. They answered all the questions I had, and explained throughly until I understood. So by the time I finished all the academics, I had a confidence to go underwater and play!

The two dives took place in Hawaii Kai, and I got to swim with a lot of Hawaiian sea turtles! They are the most relaxing animals. I also go to see some octopus, eels, etc.

I am now a certified diver, and I am ready to move on to advanced diver course. Thank you Aaron's Dive Shop!

Kevin was a fantastic teacher! Having never even snorkled before, it didn't take long to get comfortable in the water. Was so exhilerated after, am planning on getting scuba certified for my next trip. Smoothly run & very well explained. Loved the video and am recommending this activity to everyone.
Thanks a lot Kevin, will see you next year. Mahalo!!

The experience was great.

The parasailing staff were awesome! It was a first time experience for my mother and boyfriend and they made it wonderful. The staff were very knowledgeable and friendly. They even offered a kamaaina rate to my father which allowed him to be on the boat with us. He really enjoyed that. We will definitely do it again someday and recommend to friends and family.
