Great experience, highly recommended! - We are a family of 4 (2 adults, 2 teenagers). We rented two double kayaks. We had a great kayaking experience! The staff kept us well informed, the expedition is safe, the waterproof bags were very practical. We did the expedition in 3h45, including kayaking time, dinner on the water and snorkeling. Company and expedition strongly suggested! A great memory for us!

Kayak and snorkeling of Captain Cook bay - Our Kayak and snorkeling tour of the Captain Cook monument bay was very good. The snorkeling there was some of the best we've done. The kayaking in the ocean was easier than expected. The pickup and return of equipment was so easy. Great that it was right at the water.

Ask for Peter! - We highly recommend Ehu & Kai Adventures. We booked the Historical Hawaiian Adventure and couldn't have asked for a better guide. Peter was friendly and knowledgable. He made sure we were relaxed, safe and enjoying our snorkeling experience.

Best way to get to the Capt Cook Monument, it was an amazing experience! - This was my favorite activity on my solo vacation, I absolutely loved it! Jamal was a great guide & the group was great too!! It was so peaceful just being on the water, it was early (8am), so it was super calm at that time. The best part was seeing the dolphins*, I cried when I saw them bc I was so excited 🐬 It got busy over by Capt Cook’s monument with all of the motor boats and snorkelers, but I could still see tons of fish just by looking over the side of the canoe bc the water was so clear! It was such an incredible experience, I can’t thank you enough 😊 *Sorry, I only have video of the dolphins, no pics 🐬

Hoping others didn’t have this problem - Unfortunately the company canceled on us the night before due to permit issues. Told a refund was on the way, still have not seen the refund.
