Aloha Rory, Yes…living in Hawaii/Kaua’i can be “picturesque” challenging and spiritually fulfilling. It is one of many requirements of all our guides to be well versed in both the cultural and natural history of all the areas we celebrate from the ocean to the mountains. Thanks for taking the time to share. A hui hou, Micco PS there are some great books our there on legends specific to Kaua’i: Frederick Wichman - Kaua’i Tales

Our kayak and snorkel tour was amazing. Jay was a very charming and knowledgeable guide and made sure to make our tour as enjoyable and safe as possible.

Aloha Modest, As we approach winter the surf can complicate this tour in finding a safe snorkel area; that is where good guiding comes into play and Jay. Glad you enjoyed and you will need to go with Jay on our more strenuous/challenging whale watching and Na Pali sea kayak tours. Stay active. A hui hou, Micco

I would recommend Kauai Kayak. Our guide Hotu was amazing. The Hanalei tour was awesome! Hanalei Bay is the most incredible place on earth!

Aloha Myong, Hotu’s other name is Pohaku and is one of the top body boarders on the island. We are so lucky to have him guide our Hanalei river and bay tours where he shares his aloha and keeps you all safe. Thanks for your kind words and will share with Pohaku. And yes Hanalei bay and river and panorama are unsurpassed. A hui hou, Micco
