Kauai South Shore Sea Kayak tour with Outfitters Kauai
Join us on an 8 mile Sea Kayak tour along Kauai's scenic south shore from Poipu to Port Allen. This area of the coastline holds some of Kauai's most secluded bays and beaches, and we'll make surf landings on three different rarely seen beaches during our day together!
We will launch from Kukui'ula Small Boat Harbor and pass Spouting Horn, an amazing salt-water blowhole. After about 45 minutes, we'll land our kayaks on the beach at Lawa'i Kai, the awe-inspring site of Queen Emma's summer home. Enjoy hot coffee and bag of muffins as you stroll the beach in the golden morning light.
We continue downwind, past the white sand beachs barrier reefs, and volcanic craters of Palama's Point. As we paddle, we'll be looking for interesting marine life, such as spinner dolphin and honu, or sea turtles, both common in this area. During the months of November through April, we run the chance of getting a glimpse of migratory humpback whales.
After 7 miles of paddling we land at Wahi'awa bay to relax, eat lunch, and play. Here you can comb the ΒΌ mile crescent-shaped sandy paradise, play in the water, and snorkel the fringes of the bay. Meanwhile, your guide will lay out a tasty picnic lunch with a delicious brownie that may inspire a nap, which is fully endorsed.
Around mid-afternoon after another brief paddle, our driver will arrive to whisk us away on our return to the Poipu resort area.
Great lunch, snacks, cold drinks, Kauai Coffee and muffins provided.
