What To Expect

Kualoa Ranch

Make your own way to the scenic northern coast of Oahu to arrive at Kualoa Ranch. Your tour starts with a short ride across Moli’i Fishpond, an ancient Hawaiian pond in use more than 800 years ago to supply local villages with fish. As you glide across the 125-acre (50-hectare) fishpond, learn about traditional aquaculture practices in Hawaii.

Kane'ohe Bay

On the other side of the fishpond, arrive at Secret Island where your spacious catamaran awaits to take you on your 30-45 minute ocean cruise. The remains of the prehistoric Ko’olau volcano formed Kaneohe Bay, the Ko’olau mountains and Mokoli’i Island. The eye-catching scenery has served as the backdrop for Hollywood films including Pirates of the Caribbean 4, Pearl Harbor and 50 First Dates.

Mokoli’i Island

Set out on the turquoise waters of Kaneohe Bay, soaking in incredible views of Mokoli’i Island as you cruise. Pass Hokule'a Beach, a stunning white-sand paradise that is also home to the first modern replica of an ancient Hawaiian sailing boat. Admire the striking sight of the Ko’olau Mountains rising up in jagged green peaks behind the shimmering bay.

Kualoa Regional Park

While the fresh ocean breeze keeps you cool, hear lively historical narration and get great photo ops during your scenic cruise. You can enjoy a fantastic perspective on north Oahu’s coastline from the large viewing deck of your catamaran. You are returned to your starting point after the ocean cruise to conclude your tour.

The ocean voyage tour is a worthwhile experience. Our tour guide Camu/Sam was great! He is very knowledgeable about the area and also very friendly/fun to have as a guide. You can tell he’s a true native and has respect for the land. Also, if you ask nicely he will even do a hula dance for you. 😁 The tour is short and sweet but a great way to get out on the ocean. Be prepared to get a little (or a lot) wet depending on where you sit. The waves can be a bit rough going in so it may not be for those that easily get sea sick. The area around the boat is gorgeous as well (many movies/tv shows were filmed there). All in all it was definitely worth the experience!
