KAYAK ADVENTURE - Keauhou Sea Cave Adventure
After checking in, we outfit your personal kayak, (single or tandem)
with lifejackets, backrests, paddles, snorkel gear and bottled water. We
help you launch into calm and picturesque Keauhou Bay where we conduct
a group instruction. The itinerary is explained as follows: After leaving
Keauhou Bay (birthplace of Kamehameha the Great) we head south along the
cliffs toward Kuamoo Bay. Along this stretch we look for dolphins, manta
rays and turtles. There are interesting arches and blow holes along the
cliffs. In Kuamoo Bay, we head for a sea cave that often allows us inside
to explore its pink walls and aqua waters. Leaving Kuamoo Bay, we follow
the coastline, and paddle over coral gardens and underwater lava tubes,
'till we arrive at the next cave which is almost always calm and cool.
This is a dry lava tube above a cave that extends deep into the earth.
