Kayak, Kolo, Dragons and Turtles! - We had a lovely morning taken by the super sweet Kolo (not sure if the spelling is correct) who was very fun and informative - told us the legend of the puff the magic dragon song originating on the north shore and made us all feel very relaxed and full of joy at the whole experience, We were not the best at kayaking haha but we made our way with the help of Kolo and the rest of the tour group too and we got where we needed to be! So fun to kayak out into the bay on to the beach where you can snorkel and see so many beautiful fish and even see some turtles swimming or sleeping! Thank you so much for the whole experience and memories and photos :) We want to come back again soon!

Morning kayak and snorkeling tour was exceptional! - Had a wonderful kayak/snorkeling trip with Kolo. He was friendly and informative about the area. Kayaking was easy, on our own pace and we did not feel rushed at all. Saw many different types of fish while snorkeling. Lunch was exceptional for the 4 of us with every sandwich being perfect! A highlight was Kolo playing his ukulele and singing songs. I would highly recommend this tour.

Great Experience - This was an excellent experience. I’ve never kayaked or snorkeled. I was actually a little nervous about snorkeling and our tour guide made me feel comfortable and confident. It was really worth every penny. Scenery was beautiful. Saw lots of fish when snorkeling, including a huge sea turtle!
