Baby Beach was a perfect spot for novice snorkelers and there were very few people when we arrived.

My wife and I wanted to go snorkeling in the Poipu area. We had rented from Boss Frog's before on Maui and had a great experience, so we decided to go to the Poipu location. We were greeted by Kristen, who was incredibly friendly and helpful from the moment we walked in. She asked where we were planning to snorkel and gave us great advice on a nearby spot that turned out to be absolutely perfect. She helped us get set up with masks, snorkels, and fins and made the whole process quick and easy. Kristen was enthusiastic, knowledgeable, and a great representative for the company. Because of her help, we had a fantastic afternoon snorkeling in beautiful clear water. Thank you, Kristen and Boss Frog's, for making it such a smooth and enjoyable experience. We'll definitely rent from you again.

We had a wonderful experience renting snorkel gear from Boss Frog's. We actually rented the snorkel gear from their other location in Koloa but wanted to snorkel at Lawai Beach. I saw they had a store here. Their location is smaller but right next to the beach. I asked Kristen for advice on the best way to enter the beach since it is pretty rocky. She took the time to give us tips and tricks and was so helpful and kind. It saved us from getting scratched up from the rocks and we had such an amazing time. Also, their gear was great! I 100% recommend renting from Boss Frog's.

Ask the Community - Boss Frog's

Do you currently offer bike rentals at either the Poipu or Kōloa locations?

We only offer bike rentals at the Kapaa location. There are some good places to bike close to the shop so no need to load the bike on a vehicle. It is probably best to call during store hours for current availability.… 

Do you rent beach chairs and umbrellas? If yes, how much for two chairs and 1 umbrella for 8 days?

Aloha Ray, Yes we do. Please call 808-742-2025 for price and availability! Mahalo, Pam

Do you have bike rentals at this location?

Our Poipu location is currently closed. We do not have a date certain as to opening. Pam

From the ease of booking, to our tour guides Ari and Alex who were soooo informative and amazing. The tour is about 3 hours long and you will see and learn so much about this beautiful island.

Mona & Isaiah, were phenomenal. They were knowledgeable, personable, and funny. They kept the mood alive and bumping and I LOVED their genuine way to connect with each group. The tour definitely showed us another level of an experience to the island. The experience was surreeal in the 4 points that you get to explore with the group you are placed with. Everyone becomes a team and a unit. Each point becomes more elaborate than the next. The first with the eye opening beachfront that doesn't feel like any other. So secluded and one of a kind. The next few points are one of a kind as well. I think the experience is what you make of it. The drive alone is a video game like experience of leveling up to keep up with the group. But in the end it becomes the 3 hour experience you hang with your crew. I think each group should have a name to bond the groups forever. I want to call ours as default Jurassic Frank! (Frank is the rooster that lives very comfortably in the last man made lake spot. Please, remember to say hello to him and his many accomplishes that give you a lot of genuine love. If you are patient you will catch a little fish on the far left front of their pier.) Loved this AVT tour and I can't wait to return for another round of the island.

Captain Max was incredible--his sense of humor kept us laughing even as the rain and mist rolled in. The two women on the crew (I wish I could remember their names) were fantastic, making sure everyone was comfortable and answering all our questions with a smile. The playlist on board was spot on, setting the perfect vibe. I wish I could find it on Spotify! Despite the weather, the views were breathtaking, and getting a little drenched just added to the adventure. The food was delicious, especially the smoked pork, salad, and fresh fruit, and my husband loved the mai tais. Even without the sunset, the whole experience was magical. After chatting with other travelers, I'm convinced we had one of the best tours available. especially after talking to a couple at our hotel pool who had paid more than we did and only got snacks limited alcohol. I can't recommend Holo Holo Charters enough, and I'm already looking forward to trying their breakfast or snorkel cruise next time. If you're looking for an amazing adventure, this is it!

Here's a practical classification: * Wind: 20 knots (23 mph) * Fresh breeze (Beaufort Force 5) * Whitecaps are common. * Reefing the sails is often recommended. * Experienced sailors generally enjoy these conditions. * Beginners may find them intimidating. * Seas: 5 feet * Moderate waves with regular swells. * Boats will pitch and roll noticeably. * Spray over the bow is common. * Can become uncomfortable, especially for smaller boats. Overall rating * For a 20- to 30-foot sailboat: Challenging. Suitable only for experienced sailors. * For a 35- to 45-foot cruising sailboat: Moderate to moderately rough. Manageable with proper sail handling. * For beginners or passengers: Rough and potentially uncomfortable. If you're asking about a sailing excursion in Kauaʻi I'd classify 20 knots and 5-foot seas as: * Marginal to poor for a leisurely sightseeing sail. * Acceptable for experienced crews on larger, well-equipped catamarans. * Not ideal if your goal is a smooth, relaxing cruise or if you have balance issues or are prone to seasickness. Given what I know about your mobility and balance, I would recommend waiting for conditions closer to: * Wind: 10-15 knots or less * Seas: 2-4 feet Those conditions are generally much more comfortable and enjoyable for most passengers. This a money making joke. I tried to get a refund because I walk with a cain. There response tuff luck I should not have booked.

They take you into caves and aren't afraid to squeeze in. What we didn't expect, getting MAJA island stories and information while the captain/DJ plays some great music and choreographed movie scores to go with the vibes. We met hundreds of SPINNA dolphins and during the one hour snorkel stop, we were escorted by a beautiful Honu across the reef. The wife and I talk about this trip all the time. The jokes and good conversations are something to remember from the staff as well.

Easily One of the Best Experiences of My Life - 10/10 Would Do Again…read more If you're debating whether or not to book with Nā Pali Pirates, just do it. Hands down one of the coolest things I've ever done. Captain Dom was the perfect mix of chill, knowledgeable, and safety-conscious--dude knew exactly how to handle the boat, even when we got up close and personal with some pretty intense waves near the cliffs and caves. And Chaz? Absolute legend. Kept the vibes light with some solid (and delightfully cheesy) jokes, plus he snapped a ton of pics so we could actually enjoy the moment without worrying about our phones. But the real highlights? Getting insanely close to the cliffs and feeling the sheer power of the ocean, then just floating out in the middle of nowhere, taking it all in. Oh, and did I mention we saw THREE whale breaches and a bunch of dolphins? Unreal. If you're on the fence, take this as your sign to book it. Zero regrets, just pure adventure.
