I Highly recommend this kayak and snorkeling adventure. The guide Jay is very informative and friendly. He gave a very informative overview of kayaking and was always there for those who had difficulty along our route. His history of native flora, and native culture is outstanding. We had a safe , protected sea kayaking to a great beach where a beautiful reef awaited for snorkeling . Great catered sandwiches , chips , soft drinks and cookies . Fresh pineapple slices . Another guide Sam was present as well to add ease to our beach landing and reentry as well. Fun group of diverse people made our trip outstanding.

Aloha Johnda, Outstanding is good enough for us. Glad you enjoyed our Hanalei Blue Lagoon Paddle & Snorkel. Jay and Sam do a great job keeping you safe and informed while not loosing a sense of fun. Our lunch caterer is award winning Passion Bakery Cafe who we have been working with for many of our 39 years. Stay well and active and thanks for taking the time to share you review with other. A hui hou, Micco

My sister and I had a blast out on the Hanalei River and then into the Pacific via kayak! Our awesome guides pointed things out all along the way. Jay was extremely knowledgeable about all things Hawaiian and Kaua'i, in particular! Sam expertly helped one couple when they had a flip over. The snorkeling was epic and riding the waves in was especially fun! Oh and we got to see turtles and dolphins too!

Aloha Ellie, As I have shared with other reviews, our Hanalei Blue Lagoon, is slowly getting as popular as our Wailua River paddle and hike to the waterfall. Jay not only excels in the field, but also keeps quality on all our sea kayak tours, including the more challenging Na Pali paddle. Turtles are Kayak Kaua'i's totem; a good sign that you will return. Will share your kind words with Jay and Sam. Thanks for taking the time to share. Stay paddling and snorkeling. A hui hou, Micco
