Stand Up Paddle / Kayak

Stand Up Paddle / Kayak with Mahina Hawaii gives participants a choice between standing on a paddleboard or sitting in a kayak, and groups can mix and match between the two formats. The operator's background is in competitive stand-up paddleboarding, and the session is structured around teaching proper fundamentals and technique alongside the experience of paddling itself.

The activity is rated easy in difficulty and moderate in physical intensity. A basic ability to swim is required before booking. No food or drinks are provided, so bringing water is a practical consideration.

Kayaking is available for anyone who prefers to be seated, so no one in a group is locked into a single format. Mixed groups where comfort levels on the water vary can split between paddleboards and kayaks as they prefer. The tour suits a wide range of participants, from those trying paddle sports for the first time to anyone looking to build better technique on the water.
