Great kayak renting experience - Very friendly staff at the pick up location. Strapping the kayak on was much easier than I thought it would be and it was easy to take down and put back on my own with the help of my wife. I booked for 4 hours but they told me to bring it back whenever I was done with my trip. Excellent experience and the dry bag was very useful too.

Gorgeous views! - Amazing! It was really easy to pick up the kayaks. They set up a rack on the car for transport to the beach. The beach isn't crowded (at least on a Monday) and the kayak around the island is absolutely gorgeous. The hike on the island is rocky, make sure you bring the right shoes for hiking and climbing on rocks.

Unique experience in Oahu - What a unique experience in Oahu. We loved the easy kayak to Mokoli'i. I highly recommend water shoes for the hike once you get there. We attempted in sandals and were not successful in getting to the top. Bring a cooler for waters and snacks if you plan to chill for a bit.

flexible and understanding employees made experience a breeze - Brad and Micheal were super helpful with being flexible and understanding with the whole reservation. Helped set up and made the whole experience as smooth as possible. Although they couldn't deliver the kayak right to the beach due to new regulations, they were great with adapting and making the experience as easy as possible with loading the kayak onto my car and securing it. They even allowed the reservation time to be flexible and not only let me pick up the kayak after the designated time, but let us keep the kayak for the whole day as opposed to the 3 hour window I initially reserved. I understand that the company is undergoing transition and thus have been going though changes so I'm sure that these circumstances wont be permanent but they did a great job with being understanding and agreeable with making the whole experience great even without the direct delivery being available. Would use their services again and would recommend to anyone on the island looking to visit Mokoli'i island (chinaman hat island).

Fun morning adventure - Great way to see Mokoli’i! The three hours was plenty of time to get to the island and hike around (we circumnavigated the island and then climbed up to the top) and then kayak back. The guide communicated well with us for the pickup and was easy to find. The kayak was ready to go when we arrived. Thanks for a great morning!

Family kayak tour - Michael was super helpful and flexible with our family group when we booked this excursion. He brought out all of the equipment to us at a convenient location. The kayak trip and hike around Mokoli'i was easily a highlight of our vacation.

Kayak - View was amazing, hiking to top a little tricky in some spots especially descending the hill. Overall worth it.

Great experience with loss of time - Great communication, easy rebooking for the next day. The negative thing is that the kayak has to be picked up and brought back. Unfortunately we didn't know that beforehand. It takes 30 minutes to get to Molokini Beach and back again. Unfortunately that was a pointless waste of time
