What to expect

Kayak Kauai runs a range of tours, including a Wailua River paddle and hike to Sacred/Secret Falls, a Hanalei Blue Lagoon paddle and snorkel, a Poʻipū sea kayak snorkel tour, and a Nā Pali Coast camping outfitter service for backpackers heading out on the trail. The Wailua River is Hawaiʻi's only navigable river of any real length, and the Nā Pali Coast — accessible mainly by boat, kayak, or the Kalalau Trail — is one of the most dramatic and remote coastlines in the islands.

Good to know

Kayak Kauai has been recognized as a National Geographic award winner among its guided tours, reflecting the range and quality of routes it covers across the island — river paddling on the wetter east side near Kapaʻa and Wailua, and both the sunny south shore near Poʻipū and the rugged north shore near Hanalei and the Nā Pali Coast.

Who it's best for

Residents who want a guided way into Kauaʻi's water-based landscapes — whether that's a family-friendly river paddle to a waterfall, a snorkel-focused sea kayak day, or gear support for a Nā Pali backpacking trip.
