KOA picked us up and was a very enjoyable and safe driver. We had a perfect sunny morning to hike and it was absolutely gorgeous! All of us in our group that hiked are in our 60’s and was not to difficult of a journey for us. The views on the way up and down were beautiful, but the views from the top were breathtaking! One of our favorite excursions while visiting the Hawaiian Islands.

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.
Belated "Mahalo Nui Loa" for your generous 5-star rating. Glad to know that canoe captain and our staff took care of your party. Thank you for recommending this true Hawaiian sport that you can only experience in Waikiki. We look forward to seeing you again soon. Aloha, Waikiki Beach Services

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!

I participated with a friend. In the group lesson, there were four students per teacher, but they helped us catch a lot of waves. I was very satisfied. The teaching style was interesting, and since there were people who could speak Japanese, I was able to relax and enjoy the experience.

Great experience viewing aquatic life from submarine. Totally worth to visit once in a lifetime. On downside, finding the checking point was too cumbersome. Do plan to reach well advance in time. Did see lots of fishes, turtles. A bit on the expensive side, but again where else you would see marine life so closely without getting wet.

Love, love, LOVE this boat! It's a beach catamaran so no transportation is needed. Plus, they provide you with FINS that are super comfy and adjustable. After snorkeling, you get some snacks and can purchase drinks on board. We got the souvenir Holokai shaker to keep. We did the 9am cruise which was perfect for visibility and to catch a little bit of sun before it got too hot in the afternoon. Would recommend!

This catamaran is super nice! Since it was an early snorkel cruise, we opted to add-on a light breakfast so we could sleep in a bit more in the AM. Visibility was amazing. On the boat ride to the snorkel spot, we were so lucky and saw dolphins. This is incredibly rare in Waikiki so we were so excited to have gotten the chance to see them! There were tons of fish at Turtle Canyon. This boat provided us with floatation belts AND fins. The fins helped us out so much and we were able to cover so much more area than if we didn't use them. Loved this cruise & would recommend!

I think overall I had great time with parasailing, the view from top was awesome. We had two issues, first issue, we were the last family to do parasailing and they cut short our time in the air <6 minutes, (yes I timed ours, compared to first family) so they did not manage time well even though they advertised 8 mins from start to finish. second issue, photos we bought from them did not open on my computer and when I tried on another computer there were no photos at all, just wasted my money :-(. Next time, I would choose different parasailing vendor for sure.

My family and I had a good time. The two guys were attentive, and knowledgeable. The only thing is the pictures- we were a part of 6 and the pictures that I got were the same over and over again.

I get this on every tour, but newbies need instructions on how not to be rude. Don’t flip in my face. Stop swarming at me, and please… there is no reason to flail your appendages rampantly for no reason when there are 50 swimmer right next to you. Please explain this to swimmers before hand. In fact, in a small area, there is no reason for flippers. This would have been much more enjoyable if no one had them.
Turtles were neat. I would not tell anyone else if you see one because everyone swarms and hits you in the face/gut/you name it, as they flail to see it.

He was always there to help us out and made us feel comfortable. Except for my spouse everyone else in the group are non-swimmers, the instructor helped us navigate through the water, and to top it he took amazing videos of us while snorkeling :)

The was the BEST parasailing we’ve ever done - and we’ve done several on both coasts of the mainland and different islands. Although the seas were a bit rough, the parasailing was outstanding. The captain and crew of Freedom were gems. My son said he would give them a 6 out of 5 stars - lol.
Definitely go for the 1000 feet! The windy day really had us flying well above any of the competition.
Will do this one again on our next visit.

There was an instructor who spoke Japanese, and although there was only one Japanese person, I was able to have a great time. However, there are blocks in the water near the beach that are hard to see from above, so while I could stand, I bumped my legs on the way back and scraped both knees, which was painful. The shop lends long-sleeved rash guards, so my upper body was fine, but those participating in shorts need to be careful about sunburn as well.
日本語の話せるインストラクターもいらっしゃり、日本人ひとりでしたが楽しく過ごすことができました。ただ浜辺近くは上からは見えにくいブロックが海中にあるため、足は着くものの戻る際に足をぶつけて両膝とも擦りむいて痛い思いをしました。お店が長袖のラッシュガードを貸してくれるので上半身は大丈夫ですが、短パンで参加される方は日焼け対策含めて注意が必要です。

The crew from Moana Catamaran were awesome, laid back, and super helpful the entire experience! The classic island music, the weather, the catamaran.. all the vibes were perfect!
We saw a couple schools of Dolphins on the surface (which I believe is NOT common, so keep that in mind if you book!) and saw about 8-9 sea turtles during our time in the water. A few of them hung around the whole time and swam towards us so close we had to swim away to give them the distance they need.
The crew gave us everything we needed- snorkels, fins, and a floaty to make things super easy for our time in the water. I really enjoyed that it was a waist floaty and not a neck inflatable one like some of the other boats out there. Made it much more enjoyable.
Overall, we were mesmerized by the turtles and the fish / sea life that surrounded us, and had an amazing crew to take us to it. 10/10, 5/5, whatever you want to take from this. My wife said this was "the most amazing experience of her life", and I might even agree. :)
Thanks, Moana Catamaran, for an incredible experience.
