We depart from the West side of Kauai at 9600 Kaumualii Highway Waimea, Hawaii. This is where you will meet at our office for check-in and receive your dry bag to put your belongings in while out on the boat with us and we will complete a safety briefing. Then you will drive in your vehicle to Kikiaola Small Boat Harbor where you will get on the boat ad begin your adventure! CHECK-IN AND MISSED TOUR POLICY Arrive at Na Pali Riders’ office in Waimea 45 minutes before departure with waivers signed. The safety brief starts 30 minutes before departure. If not checked in before the brief begins, the tour is missed. The ride on the raft is rough, and full of adventure so please be ready for this.
