Outrigger Canoe Surfing with Waikiki Beach Boys

Outrigger Canoe

Reviewed by: Diana

So much fun! Our family loved this adventure. Then crew was great and we caught at least 6 waves!

Reply from activity provider

Aloha, Diana! Mahalo for your generous 5 star rating! Glad that you have mentioned that you caught 6 waves. It is a benefit of "Canoe Charter" for one-hour instead of signing up for "Canoe Surfing" which guarantees 3 waves and it may take anywhere from 15 minutes to 30 minutes, depending on the condition. We strongly recommend that all guests would sign up for the "Charter" as you did. Thank you again!

Waikiki Guided Beach Snorkeling Tour for Beginners with FREE Photos & Videos

Perfect for beginners

Reviewed by: Jan from Minnesota

We wanted to snorkel without taking a boat ride. This was a great option. Our party of 3 (grandparents with granddaughter) were all beginners to snorkeling. They provided nice equipment so we didn’t need to purchase anything. The instructor, Ryan, was very knowledgeable. He showed us how to wear the items properly. He taught us the simple steps of snorkeling - breathing through the tube and floating. The lagoon was a perfect, protected place. We saw many different fish and sea creatures. Ryan’s patience with beginners was much appreciated. This was money well spent for an experience we will never forget.

It's been three years since my last trip to Hawaii. I chose this opportunity to enjoy Hawaii with my 73-year-old parents! It was easy and accessible! Thanks to the strong winds, I was able to catch some great waves, making it an incredibly fun experience!

An Exhilarating Way to See Hawaii

Reviewed by: Hawaii Explorer

This X-Treme Ride on Waikiki's Parasailing Adventure was the PERFECT way to end our Oahu vacation. Waikiki and the beautiful sunny day were the perfect backdrop for our last adventure before we went home to the snowy state of Maine! The crew members were awesome and made this so easy and fun. We were able to sit back and enjoy the ride. They offer a photo package so even if you are doing this alone you can still have a bunch of GREAT photos of you living in the moment. I would definitely recommend this activity!

Outrigger Canoe Surfing with Waikiki Beach Boys

The best thing to do in Waikiki

Reviewed by: Nancy

On our first day in Waikiki we started off with a thrill at Outrigger Canoe Surfing! The experience was fantastic from start to finish. Russell was the captain and he and his crew were phenomenal and with their encouragement we powered through the surf and set up for three exhilarating rides over the breaking waves. It felt as though we were surfing. I would recommend this again in a heartbeat.

Parasailing in Waikiki with Hawaiian Parasail - Diamond Head Views with Triple & Tandem Flights

What an experience!

Reviewed by: Gina

Wow! Everyone in Hawaii needs to go parasailing! My boyfriend and I did the 1000ft parasail and it was amazing. Our guides who were loads of fun really made it a cool experience. They take pictures for you that you can purchase for $35 that come on an SD card. The process of parasailing was quite simple. You step into some straps, sit down on the end of the boat and they clip two clips on and then BOOM YOU ARE OFF into the sky! You gradually get higher and it is so serene up in the sky. Literally breathtaking. After 6-7 minutes of flying, they lower you down and dip you into the water (for fun lol). So be careful if you are wearing glasses/sunglasses. You’ll get a nice cup of salt water tea!

5-in-1 Waikiki Fun Cruise with Snorkeling, Water Slide, Trampoline, Kayak & SUP - E Sea Diver

Value-packed 1/2 day trip

Reviewed by: Yes to Hawaii

If you're looking for a nice, quiet morning...this isn't it. BUT, if you're looking for a fun day on on the water with lots to do, this would be a fun choice for you. You get a lot of value: stand-up paddle boards, water trampoline, snorkeling, kayaks, etc. I liked that it was only a 1/2 day activity. We did the morning since the water is calmer and still had our whole day ahead of us after.
