We did the self-guided, double kayak from Kailua beach alllll the way to Mokulua islands. What a workout omg but totally worth it to do at least once! The water is so clear, and we saw 3 turtles on our way to the islands, and on the island we saw a monk seal with her pup! Super important to apply sunscreen all over and then again bc we got soooo sunburnt :(
Awesome experience! Super easy check in and extra helpful and friendly staff, thank you to Marty, Justine, and Natsu! We kayaked to flat island and today was a bit rough waters and wind but so fun and left feeling accomplished would highly recommend to anyone interested in some challenging fun and I'd love to do it again when I come back in the future!
Easy rentals and amazing spot to Kayak! We didn't think we could do the islands but the surf was calm and we ended up making it easily!
This is the second time I've been here! First time I went on a solo kayak tour, this time I did the guided kayak tour! Really fun times. Staff is always friendly. I had Morgan as my tour guide and he was very accommodating, knowledgeable, and super friendly! It's a very easy tour, Kailua Beach Adventures makes things as easy as possible. It does require some upper body strength, but anyone at any level can do it! BEAUTIFUL views! 10/10 would recommend.
We had an amazing time on the Kailua Beach Adventure kayak tour, and a huge part of that was thanks to Morgan! The entire experience was so much fun from start to finish--beautiful scenery, great pacing, and just the right mix of adventure and relaxation. Morgan was incredibly informative throughout the tour, sharing interesting facts about the area, local wildlife, and history in a way that kept everyone engaged. One of the highlights was kayaking out to Popoiʻa Island (Flat Island), which was absolutely beautiful. Morgan did an excellent job helping us navigate the waters both going out and coming back, making sure everyone felt comfortable and confident the entire time. Honestly, Morgan was the best guide we could have asked for--friendly, knowledgeable, patient, and just all-around awesome. We felt safe, well taken care of, and had such a great time. Highly recommend this tour, especially if you get Morgan as your guide!
Overall, had a great experience kayaking with Kailua Beach Adventures! They had plenty of open reservations when I checked the night before, so that made planning our day much easier, especially since we were staying in Waikiki without a rental car. We rented out a double kayak as well as a dry bag for $5, which I recommend for holding anything you plan to bring with you on the kayak, including phones. You will get wet! If you're visiting an island, they also collect a fee per person, which is mandatory from the state. We did the self guided option, so no tour guide. Then, they make you watch a 12 minute video, which I recommend paying attention to because it teaches you the basics, like how to properly hold the paddle, as well as the routes to the different locations and where to dock your kayak if you go to certain locations like some of the islands ($3 per person for Flat Island) After that, they give you your life vest and your kayak, which is on a dolly. They are not allowed to have the kayaks on the beach, so you have to walk the kayak about 10 minutes out to this river area. If you are trying to kayak in the ocean, you also have to drag it across sand for a portion of it (without the dolly, so it's heavy!). At Kailua Beach, there was a lady who helped us get onto the kayak, which was super helpful since I did not want to capsize first minute into the water. From there on, we kayaked to Flat Island. At the island, there is no one to help you dock the kayak, which can be a bit frightening, but luckily the water gets shallower to the point where you can just hop out into the water once you're close by. It was a bit hard to dock the kayak on the rocks because the kayak was so heavy. The island was lovely and had some nice tide pools. We even got lucky and saw a turtle! Kayaking back to the beach, I thought there would be someone to help us dock the kayak onto the beach, but there wasn't really a designated person waiting there. Luckily, there was a guided tour right behind us, and they had 2 people who were there to help the tour group dock and they helped us dock as well because we kinda were going in circles... it was mainly stressful because the part where we took off from was filled with people swimming, so there wasn't really a good place to dock the kayak. Note that they close at 5 PM and will charge a late fee if you bring the kayak back after 5 PM so make sure to keep track of time and to factor in the time it would take to bring the kayak back to the shop. Overall, I had a lot of fun kayaking with Kailua Beach Adventures and would do it again! If you've never been kayaking before, it may be best to do a guided tour, since you get a lot more help with the process. Also be prepared to walk/drag the kayak - it's an arm workout!
Came here last month to get some kayaking equipment. Staff were very friendly and made sure to explain everything. This is a very spacious shop with lots of equipment to rent and a pretty clean bathroom. We had to put two kayaks on top of our car and the staff was very helpful in guiding us how to do it. They even gave us a small discount for doing some beach cleaning which was nice of them. Overall: 9.4/10 I'd come again!
We did the Twin Islands Guided Kayak Tour (5.5 hours) when we visited in January and had an awesome time. The guided tour included the kayak out and back, a short walking tour and a relaxing lunch on the Twin Islands. Lunch included a sandwich, potato chips, Oreos, bottled water, and Hawaiian Sun - all of which tasted especially delicious after the great workout we had kayaking out to the islands against the current. The company also provided snorkeling gear for anyone who wanted to snorkel at the Mokes, but we decided not to since the water looked quite choppy that day. Another perk was that we had the option to use any of their bikes or snorkel gear for the rest of the day after the tour. Several in our group decided to take the bikes out for a spin and head towards Lanikai Beach nearby, which is known for their snorkeling. The guided tour was limited to 8 people total, which was a good group cap size. There were a few other small groups already on the island when we arrived, but everyone was respectful, and it did not feel too crowded even though the beach itself wasn't very big. Special shout-out to our tour guide, Maggie! Maggie was both friendly and professional, and we felt reassured by her presence. We opted for the guided tour as it felt safer than trying to navigate by ourselves around the "danger zone" in the waters; the wind and waves did feel pretty strong as we were heading out to the Mokulua Islands, and Maggie's kayak was a helpful reference when we started to veer off-track. Her help was also much appreciated when we had to launch our kayak from shore. I recommend the Twin Islands Guided Kayak Tour and would return to Kailua Beach Adventures for more rentals next time I'm in the area.
My husband and I had Justin and Tommy as our kayaking and tour guides during our honeymoon trip in Hawaii, and they were amazing. From the very beginning, they made us feel comfortable, safe, and excited for the adventure. Justin had such a calm, knowledgeable energy--he explained everything clearly and shared so many interesting facts about the area, the wildlife, and the history. Tommy brought the fun and kept the whole experience light, relaxed, and full of good vibes. Together, they were the perfect balance. They paced the tour really well, checked in with everyone often, and made sure we were always feeling good. You can tell they truly care about what they do and want every guest to have the best possible time. Our honeymoon trip wouldn't have been the same without them. We left with beautiful memories, great photos, and a really special experience we'll never forget. If you get the chance to book a tour with Justin and Tommy--do it. You won't regret it!
Kailua Beach Adventures is a reputable place to have a kayaking experience at one of the most beautiful beach locations in Oahu. They have guided tours or you can have a kayak rental and DIY it. What I'd want you to know is that (1) the journey from kailua beach to lanikai beach is beautiful and (2) kayaking can be very strenuous, so plan appropriately. I did a two-hour tour along with my family and, for my needs, I felt that this was a must. When we went, our guide was Tommy and he was very helpful. I also enjoyed the lunch that they provided afterward! Consider booking ahead of time and you may be able to find discount codes on their website.
We did the self guided tour to The Mokes. 10 out of 10!!! Staff was so helpful and friendly. Great extras. Beach chairs, dry bags, etc. Loved the lunch choices. Delicious sandwiches. Great Vegetarian Options for my husband. Such a fun beautiful adventure. Stunning island. Mahalo KBA
My family had a great time on a kayaking trip with Avery our guide. She explained everything well and was patient with our crew of 5. We did the trip to Moku Popoia which was perfect for getting to experience being out on the water as well as learning about the area. KBA had everything we needed for the trip from wet bags to a shop to snag any gear that we may have forgotten. The area is a great spot to experience a cool part of the island with solid food options close by and having beach access. read more

We book the guided Kayak excursion to The Mokes on every trip to Oahu. We enjoy the exercise, views, and different experiences with the different guides on every trip. Even though we have done this excursion many times, there's always a twist. On our latest adventure, we got to see five monk seals, with two of them playing in the ocean like little puppies. We had a good group and had time to do extra things on this trip. Our guide, Tupre, made it a fun and interesting tour, throwing in historical and additional wildlife information. This experience solidified our decision to book Kailua Beach Adventures on our next trip to Oahu. read more

This kayaking company offers guided half and full day tours to the Mokulua Islands and also offers kayak rentals so you can no go on your own. It's located across the street from Kailua Beach Park. You have to cart your own kayak from the rental shop to the beach shore where you'll meet your guide. We were in a group of six and one guide. They have single and double kayaks. The guided tour provides life vests, dry bags, snorkels, water bottles, and lunch. The trip to the island took us approximately 1.5 hours maybe a bit more to Kayak the 2.3 miles due to strong head winds. It was faster on the return trip. We even had time to stop on flat island. This is one of my favorite activities to do while on Oahu. I love the scenic views heading to the "Mokes" and I love the views looking toward Oahu while out on the water. It's such a magical kayaking adventure. The island is a bird sanctuary and if you go at the right time you'll see nesting birds and if you are lucky, you'll see the endangered Hawaiian Monk Seal. We saw three (maybe four, not sure if one was the same one that swam to a different spot) on Moku Nui and one on Popoi'a Island sandbar. If you are adventurous and have the stamina and strength to kayak, I highly recommend this tour for you! Our guide Two-pre was the best!!! He told us that the tour we were on was his 400th!! read more

Got kayaks there to do something fun on a cloudy day! Good pricing (Dec 2024): 85$ for 4h for two-person kayak, or 99$ all day. 3$ per person to get permit for an island. 5$ to rent a dry bag. One downside is that you need to roll your kayak to the beach (around 500m/1500ft/0.3m). It's on a cart, so it's not that bad. It's harder on a way back, because if you put cart too far, it would be heavier to roll. But overall - great experience and I'm glad that we did it! read more

What an amazing experience! The 2-hour guided kayak tour with Tommy was the highlight of our trip. He was knowledgeable, friendly, and made everyone feel comfortable on the water, whether you were a beginner or experienced paddler. The scenery was absolutely breathtaking, and the best part--we spotted a sea turtle up close! After the guided portion, we had an additional 2 hours of free time to explore on our own, which was perfect for relaxing, taking photos, and soaking in the beauty of the area at our own pace. They allow you to rent all beach gear at their shop as included in your total tour price Everything was well-organized and safe, and the equipment was top-notch. Highly recommend this tour to anyone looking for a unique and memorable outdoor adventure. Thanks again to Tommy for making it so special! read more

By far this was my favorite experience in Oahu. The beach is absolutely incredible. You have to take your kayak to the water from the store (maybe 10-15 minutes) but it's so worth it. They provide everything you need to get on the water including dry bag, snorkeling gear, lunch, lockers, and knowledge of the area. Go out to the islands, it's so worth the effort. Snorkeling is also amazing in this area. It rained during my trip but that didn't stop us from being able to be out in the water. read more

Kailua Beach Adventures Reviews in Other Languages
Ask the Community - Kailua Beach Adventures
Can we fit 3 kayaks on a crossover suv?
Yes! You can stack 3 double kayaks as long as you have some folks fit enough to lift them up. We are walking distance to Kailua Beach, so you can also park and walk with free carts!
If we rent them at 3 pm would we still get the full 4 hours?
No, they close at 5p.m. (Unless they have changed their store hours recently) and you must return them before 5.
Do you guys rent kayaks by the hour?
Aloha Andy, we rent kayaks by the half day (4-hours) or full day (8-hours). You can't really make it to any of the destinations and back in an hour. I would plan on a minimum of three hours to have an enjoyable trip to one of the islands.
Visiting for the first time and wondering if its good to book in advance or same day rental is okay?
It’s definitely better to book in advance as we often sell out.
Do we need water shoes for kayaking?
They're not required but they're a good idea, especially disembarking at the islands. It's rocky!
How long does it take to kayak from Kailua to lanikai beach? Also do I need to return the cart?
It took my husband and me 1.5-2 hrs to get from Kailua to the Moku Islands (on a windy day) so I imagine it would take a third of that time (~30-45 minutes) to get to Lanikai Beach.
Do you drop off the kayaks at the beach site?
Aloha and no, dropping off commercial equipment at the beach is illegal. We are lucky enough to be within walking distance of the beach and set up kayaks and paddle boards on carts for easy transport.
Hi there! Do you have any fun activities for children 2 and 4 years old? Thanks
Yes, if they can reasonably swim with a lifejacket on. Kayaking in the Kaelepulu Canal could be a good option.
Does military apply to the hawaii resident discount? Thanks!
No it doesn't. You gotta have Hawai'i ID like driver's license. I'm military too & I never ask for the kamaaina because we're not actually full-time residents. Our subsidized housing makes the full time residents life more expensive so definitely…
Do you rent OC1s or V1 outrigger canoes?
No, but we do rent high performance sit on top kayaks!
Are reservations required to rent kayaks? Or can you rent them the day of?
Reservations are not required but highly recommended (some days we do run out). You can also save money by booking online with code 'Yelp". www.kailuabeachadventures.com
Can you rent paddle boards without taking lessons here? Also pricing per hour?
Sure! If you have never done it before or want to get better we recommend a lesson, but if you are pretty confident you can just rent no problem. One paddle board is $59 for 4 hours, or $74 dollars for the whole day.
Do you guys give Kama aina discounts?
We do! We offer a 25% discount on rentals/tours and 15% discount in our retail store with a Hawaii ID. Come see us!
How old does a child have to be to kayak?
No age restrictions for kayak rentals, you just have to be able to swim!
