Great teacher with local knowledge - Josh is awesome to work with. His equipment is great and well taken care of. He matches the equipment to your needs and has many options. He is a long time Kailua local and knows the spots and conditions. Foiling was fun and he made it easy. Two way radio helmet meant no need to return to him for coaching just spend all your minutes having fun with Coaching as you to. Josh is safety focused and a very patient teacher. Highly recommend.

Afternoon Adventures: Embrace the Culture

With the afternoon sun breaking through the clouds, it’s the perfect time to dive into the rich cultural tapestry of Kailua. The weather clears up significantly, making it an ideal time to explore outdoor attractions. Consider joining the Sacred Sites Tour from 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM on January 12th. This half-day journey takes you off the beaten path to explore ancient Hawaiian grounds and Polynesian culture.

Guided by a local expert, you’ll visit 5-6 historic, religious, and sacred locations across Oahu. The tour offers a unique perspective on Hawaiian spirituality and history, providing a deeper understanding of the island’s cultural heritage. One review captures the essence of this experience:

Extraordinary experience - This excursion is highly recommended. The Guide took us to very special places. We went to a holy place and made a “sacrifice” here (flowers with food in them). We also went to a very large cemetery where all kinds of different cultures have their own place. There is also a beautiful Buddhist temple with a large gong and a very nice garden. I would recommend this excursion to anyone who wants to see something different from the “ordinary” tourist spots. (Reviewed on 2024-08-29)

As you traverse these sacred sites, you’ll feel a sense of peace and connection to the land, making it a truly unforgettable experience.
