Hawaii Kayaking is a family-owned-and-operated business providing guided kayaking and snorkeling tours along the Hawaii South Kohala coastline of the Big Island of Hawaii. Here, discover the coral gardens of Puako Reef, a marine sanctuary, where green sea turtles feed among multicolored fish. We offer a safe and friendly environment for you and your family to enjoy while learning about our area and ocean life. Please join us for an adventure of a lifetime. Length of the Tour: 3
1/2 hours. [ More Information ] Dolphins & Whales: Hawaiian spinner dolphins (nai`a) are sometimes viewed in this area. Humpback whales arrive for a few months in the winter (January to March). We always keep a respectful distance when in their presence. These are species protected by the Marine Mammal Protection Act, which says that we should stay 100 yards away from whales and 50 yards away from dolphins.

8:45: Guests meet at Puako boat ramp 9:00—Orientation—participants outfitted with snorkeling gear and given a brief orientation on paddling technique. Load the kayaks and launch. 9:15 to 12:00—Once on the water, the group will paddle about 1 mile (30 minutes) to first snorkeling site. An orientation on how to use snorkeling gear will be given for those needing it. This is especially important for first time snorkelers, so that they will be comfortable viewing fish in the water (buoyant snorkel vests available). Otherwise, experienced snorkelers can start on their own. Expect to see a live coral reef with an abundant assortment of colorful reef fish. The variety of tropical fish is remarkable. Water depth is about 20 feet. Water temperature is at 75º from November to March and at 80º from April to October. Visibility (depending on ocean swell) will be clear. We spend about 30 to 40 minutes at this site exploring the area. Resident green sea turtles hang out in this area. Once out of the water, a snack will be served. Casual discussion on coral reef ecology and questions answered on what was seen will then be held. After snack, kayak about 1/2 mile to second snorkel site (2 different sites-weather dependent). 12:00 to 12:30—Paddle back to the boat ramp. [ Return To Top Of Page ] |
