Sunset BBQ & Paddle Board Turtle Tour

Here's something special that'll give you the real North Shore experience – this sunset BBQ & paddle board turtle tour Haleiwa combines everything locals love about our coastline. North Shore Surf Girls, owned and operated by former pro surfers and trained lifeguards, creates these intimate 4-hour VIP adventures for private groups only.

You'll meet at Anahulu Bridge, where our experienced female instructors get you comfortable with either surfing or paddle boarding before hitting the water. The paddle board route winds up the scenic Anahulu River – honestly, one of the most peaceful spots on the island. During your 1.5-2 hour guided tour, you're almost guaranteed to spot green sea turtles, plus plenty of fish and birds that call this river home.

Don't worry if you've never been on a board before. The girls provide thorough land training and outfit you with everything – paddleboards, surf shirts, rash guards, wetsuits, life jackets, whatever you need based on conditions.

But here's where this sunset BBQ & paddle board turtle tour Haleiwa really shines: after your water time, you'll settle in for a chef-prepared BBQ with drinks while the sun melts into the North Shore horizon. Since these are private group experiences, you get personalized attention whether you're celebrating something special, bonding with family, or treating colleagues to something memorable.

The whole package accommodates ages 3-99 (minimum 4 people) and runs from $249.95 per person. Just bring your swimwear, towels, and reef-safe sunscreen without oxybenzone – they handle the rest, including all paddle equipment and professional instruction.

Weather can change quickly on the North Shore, so they require 24-hour cancellation notice and will reschedule or refund if conditions turn unsafe. Trust me, this combination of hands-on instruction, wildlife encounters, and sunset dining captures what makes our coastline so magical.
