TESTIMONIALS
“Joe and Kiki were amazing tour guides--friendly, fun, professional, accommodating, and very focused on showing us a great time. We toured Mokulua Island, saw a monk seal, jumped into the salt water pool, saw critters, and had a nice snorkel dip in the water away from the tourists. If I weren't moving back to the mainland, I'd hit KOA every week. This has been the absolute highlight of my time as a Hawaii resident.”

“We had a great time riding on the sailing canoe out to the Mokolua Islands! What a fun way to spend half a day, gliding over the water with a sail. Exploring the island was a lot of fun, between seeing seals, clambering over rocks, and swimming in beautiful tidepools. My husband and I are so glad that we did this.”

“This was the highlight of our Hawaii trip. Joe and Noah were fun and excellent hosts and guides. They were very informative about the island history and environment. The time on Mokulua Island was amazing, Queen's bath was the highlight when we jumped in. It was fun for the adults (Mom and Dad) and 2 teenagers. We will definitely be back the next time we are on Oahu!”

WHAT WE STAND FOR
Kailua Ocean Adventurers is a Eco-Tourism business on the windward side of Oahu in Kailua. Located in a historical Hawaiian town, Kailua Ocean Adventures is the only cultural based business that allows guests to travel island style, just as Hawaiians and Polynesians did before.
Take a paddle out on a Hawaiian Outrigger Canoe or sit back and enjoy a voyage on a Hawaiian Sailing Canoe. Join us as we travel to the outer islets (Mokulua Islands) off the coast of the world-famous Lanikai Beach and learn of the historical sites along the way. Travel in style as Hawaiians did traveling and fishing the coast.
Guests will be immersed in the culture and the beauty of Hawai'i while on the Mokulua Islands. From snorkeling up close with wild life like the Uhu and Honus (Parrot Fish and Green Sea Turles), to sharing the island with the ‘Ilio Holo I Ka Uaua (Hawaiian Monk Seal) and 'Ua'u Kani (Wedge-Tail Shearwater), it’s an adventure to never forget. Top it off with a dip in the Queen’s bath, enjoying the amazing views of the Kaiwi Channel, Maui and Molokai in the distance. Joining our local tour guides, listen to the mo’oleleo (stories) of Hawaii they grew up with from their hanabadda days (childhood days).
Kailua Ocean Adventures is a one of a kind experience found no where else in the world. Enjoy Hawai'i, Island Style!
