Description
This self-guided kayak tour takes you to the Mokolua Islands, a protected seabird sanctuary where monk seals often rest. As you paddle out from Kailua Beach to the larger island, Moku Nui, expect to spot native wildlife including sea turtles and flying fish.
The kayak trip to Moku Nui is moderate to challenging, taking over an hour, offering ample opportunities to observe marine life. Once on the island, you can take a short walk—bring shoes or sandals to protect your feet from the rough lava terrain.
