South Shore Sea Kayak Adventure

This is a 7-mile tour by kayak of the spectacular sea cliffs and hidden beaches of Kauai's South Shore, between Poipu and Port Allen. We meet early, in Poipu, and ride together in our 15 passenger van to our launch site at nearby Kukui'ula Small Boat Harbor. After a basic paddling school, we launch our kayaks and head down the coast. We'll paddle passed the Spouting Horn, a spectacular salt-water blowhole. After about 45 minutes of paddling we'll surf our kayaks up on the beach at Lawa'i Kai, the exquisitely beautiful site of Queen Emma's summer home. Lawa'i Kai is a great place for swimming and body surfing, so we'll have some fun and laughs there before we head back down the coast. We'll continue on passed the white sands and barrier reed of Palama's Point. We'll be hoping to see some marine life as we paddle - spinner dolphins and honu, or sea turtles, are common, and seasonally (November through April) we may even get to see Humpback Whales! Our paddling will end at Wahiawa, a ¾ mile long crescent-shaped private golden sand beach. After paddling 7 miles, we'll be ready for lunch. The guides will lay out a great picnic, and we'll enjoy our private beach, swimming and beachcombing until our shuttle driver arrives at mid-afternoon to whisk us away back to Poipu. The end of a great adventure and a great day!
