FAQ
GIVE US A CHANCE TO PROVE IT!
We’re a local, family-run crew who believes the best way to experience Oʻahu is from the water. Whether you’re visiting for the first time or live here full-time, we’re here to help you paddle safely, confidently, and with a fresh perspective — one clear kayak at a time.
Where do rentals take place?
We launch from Waikīkī, near Ala Moana Beach Park. You’ll get a map and GPS pin after booking. It’s an easy spot to reach by foot, car, or rideshare.
Do I need kayaking experience?
Some prior kayaking experience is encouraged, but not required. These are self-guided rentals, and the ocean in Waikīkī is often calm — especially in the morning. We give a full safety briefing before you paddle out.
What’s the difference between 2-hour and 4-hour clear kayak rentals?
- 2 hours: Ideal for a casual paddle, taking in the view, and snapping some photos.
- 4 hours: Great for going at your own pace, taking breaks, relaxing on the beach, or sharing the kayak and switching off with friends or family.
Do you offer guided tours?
Not at this time — all rentals are self-guided. But we provide launch assistance and can answer any questions before you go.
Do you offer GoPro or drone photos?
We’re planning to offer drone photo packages soon.
GoPro rentals are also being considered — if we offer them, they’d be around $100 per session, and allow you to capture your own footage without buying your own. Stay tuned!
Is this safe for kids or first-time paddlers?
Yes — we’ve had guests of all ages! Clear kayaks are very stable. Kids age 5+ can ride with an adult in a 2-person kayak, and we provide all safety gear.
Will I see turtles or coral reefs?
Many guests do! We can’t guarantee wildlife, but Waikīkī’s nearshore waters often have turtles, tropical fish, coral, and crystal-clear views — especially in the morning or midday.
