Frequently Asked Questions

All kayaks used are the sit on top variety. There are stable which makes them perfect for snorkeling – easy to get in and out. We have singles and double kayaks available. Cockpit boats, or sit inside kayaks are not used here on Maui commercially.

The early morning provides the best conditions of the day – calm waters, sunny skies, active reef life and the sun warms instead of burns.

Well, Kayaking is quite easy – the biggest issue is for folks who have a hard time sitting up. While all the kayaks have backrests, the participants need to be able to sit up on their own. Other than that, it’s an activity that’s available to all skill levels.

Maui has an abundance of sunshine year round. The only thing that keeps us on shore is strong winds or big surf. It’s all an adventure!

You can however; there is no guarantee that we will be able to provide service. We strongly recommend reservations.

While we don’t have a hard and fast rule, we tend to cap our tours at ten guests. This being said, many people are mixed up on days and arrive for their tour on the wrong day or even the wrong location. We understand and will do our best to accommodate. Your on vacation, we understand.

Yes. All tours will involve snorkeling and of course, we are in a total water environment.We recommend that you dress to get wet all while keeping in mind, comfort, sunshine and mobility. Board shorts and bathing suits are the best option. Many people choose to wear a t shirt or rash guard for more protection from the sun. For your feet, most locations have sandy shores so we typically kick off our shoes prior to launch. Many people have water shoes and they work great too!

Absolutely. If you have gear that is comfortable, please bring it – no sense in fitting another set that may not be as comfortable for you.

We do have a limited amount of RX lenses. Please ask about this when you reserve your tour.

What Our Customers Say

“It was a great trip. We got to see whales, turtles, dolphins and fish. It was fun to be out in the ocean on a kayak. I would recommend the early morning tour due to the afternoon winds. Also, bring sunscreen.”

Kurt S

“What a beautiful morning at sea! John, our guide, was fun, informative and had a keen sense of how to experience the whales. This turned out to be our favorite activity during our visit to Maui. Wear water shoes for the rocky shore entry.”

audreysonoma

“Jake, our guide, made this short kayak/snorkeling trip informative and fun. All gear was provided and good quality. The initial training and info was thorough and led us to some great snorkeling, even for a nervous novice. We had a great experience and highly recommend Jake and South Pacific Kayaks and Outfitters.”

HarveyDog123

“We had such a great second tour with them! Kyle made the experience better! He was a great tour guide. We saw so many turtles. It was an absolute amazing experience that the kids could enjoy and see these turtles up close and personal! We will definitely use them over and over!!”

Briana T

Did just the kayak rental where you go on your own. Was good experience. Our initial booking had bad weather, and had great communication with owner to reschedule. Very flexible to work with. Equipment was in good condition. Was so glad they offered kayak on own as most companies don’t and that is all we wanted to do.
