Super great! this was a very relaxing jaunt up the river, we didnt get to go out to the ocean due to the wind that day. they said we don't want to send you on a one way trip to Kauai! you can stand up, sit or be on your knees to paddle. whatever you are comfortable with. we saw many sea turtles along the way. 2 hours is a good amount of time and we actually got out before the time was up. it would have been better if we could have gone out to the ocean but cant help the weather!
