Explore the Waikiki ahupua'a "From the Rainforest to the Reef" on this spectacular full-day eco-adventure.
Begin the day exploring a privately owned 75 acre tropical rainforest on foot. Highlights are ancient rock terraces, tropical plants and flowers, streams, pools and a hidden 200ft waterfall. This is an exclusive stream and waterfall hike. This is the only tour that can take you this exclusive location. Mild to moderate 2-mile round-trip hike lasting approx 1.5 hours with a 100 foot elevation gain.
You will then be shuttled up to Puu Ohia near 2000ft in the Koolau mountains. After gearing up, we'll begin coasting 5-miles downhill on mountain bikes over paved road through a lush Oahu rainforest. Stopping at different overlooks, your nature tour guides will point out places of interest and geological features from high above Honolulu and Waikiki. Once we reach the bottom, enjoy a delicious deli-lunch and beverage before a quick shuttle to Kewalo Basin. With its twin 140hp engines and Bose Sound System, we'll board the 38.6ft Kahala Kai catamaran and set sail on the blue Pacific Ocean on a relaxing adventure off beautiful Waikiki. Learn about the Hawaiian reef and see Waikiki, Honolulu and Leahi (Diamond Head) from a very different perspective. Swim or snorkel in the warm waters fronting Waikiki Beach as we search for honu (green sea turtles) and tropical reef fish. Nai'a (Hawaiian spinner dolphins) are sometimes seen playing off the wake of the catamaran. Seasonal kohola (Pacific Humback whales) are usually seen between the months of December through April. Complimentary drinking water and a fresh water rinse is available for your convenience. Bring your camera, swim wear and towel. Listen to smooth Hawaiian music from the Bose Sound System and soak in some Hawaiian sun...
This is family fun too! Even the kids will love it. The catamaran is fully equipped with two onboard restrooms, neccesarry life jackets for kids and adults and comes with masks, snorkels, and swimfins for optional swimming.
