Who can participate in clear bottom kayaking?

Family fun for everyone!

Our Clear Kayaks are great for people of all ages and all abilities! This is a great family activity, especially if you have small children. Our kayaks are very stable, and because you sit lower in the kayak, it is very easy to have small children ride in a parents lap (usually works best for children under 50lbs.) Older children can easily ride in their own seat. We also have life jackets that fit all sizes including infants.

Do I need to have training before kayaking?

Nope! No sweat!

Our Clear Bottom Kayaks are very easy to use and very stable on the water. The only tricky park may be launching the kayaks into the water. But, don't worry! We do that for you! Our instructors will also take you through a quick tutorial to ensure that you get the most out of your Clear Kayak experience. Once you are in the water, the kayaks are very easy to maneuver. Since you can see through the bottom, going slow is GREAT! The more you take your time, the more you are likely to see! Best of all, the best places to see Turtles are a very short paddle from where we launch!

Will I get tired quickly?

Most likely not.

The most abundant sea life is only a few short yards away from our launch site. And the best part is, the slower you go, the more you'll see! The joy of this kayak experience is in the beauty of the ocean life below. Many people enjoy the calm simplicity of floating above the ocean underworld while soaking in the sun!

When is the best time of day to experience Clear Kayaks?

A great start to any morning!

Maui's marine life are early risers! The best time of day to see plenty of marine activity is early in the morning before the wind picks up and the ocean becomes a little more choppy. Our first rental time opens at 7:00AM. Get in early to make the most of your experience!

What can we expect to see when we're out on the water?

Turtle Town!

Makena Landing is also known locally as "Turtle Town". There is an abundance of green Hawaiian sea turtles. Other sea life in the area that is often spotted include:

Manta rays
Spotted eagle rays
Octopus (tako)
Eels
Reef fish
Spinner dolphins
White-tip reef sharks (don't worry, they're tiny!)
Humpback whales (from December through April)
