You’ll be lifting and car-topping a kayak that weighs anywhere between 45lbs (20.5kg) for a single and 75lbs (34kg) for a double, or a SUP board that weighs 30lbs (13kgs).
After you’ve booked, you will receive a confirmation email which includes a link to waiver forms that will need to be filled out for each person in your group. On the day of your reservation, we will meet you at one of several locations in the Kaneohe or Kahaluu area. We will text the exact directions 1-2 hours before your scheduled meeting time.
Our All Day rentals are good for the day only. Meaning, you may use the kayak from the time you’ve picked it up until the end of our business day, which is normally at 5 pm. Summer hours may possibly be extended. Call for more information.
*Renting a kayak or SUP board may involve physical activity. Please consult with your doctor before booking, especially if you have a medical condition.

3L dry bags are provided upon request, one per kayak rented. Straps and padding are provided, absolutely free. Just as well, life jackets are provided at no extra cost! We believe you shouldn’t have to pay for safety.
We offer both single and double kayaks, as well as a 10ft (3m) SUP. Whether you want a break from your significant other, or would like to test the bonds of your familial relationship, we have options for you.
We include ratchet straps and foam blocks to protect your vehicle if you pick up your rental. If you don’t know how to use such straps, we’ll show you when you pick up your kayak(s). It’s much easier to use than the name may suggest!
Paddles and PFD’s (Personal Floatation Devices), or life jackets, are all included with your rental. All you need now is food and drink, you can provide that yourself.
All rentals come included with a 3L dry bag, one per rental. If you would like an additional bag, or would prefer our larger 20L dry bag or waterproof phone case, they’ll have to be rented. 3L dry bags and waterproof phone cases are $5 each for the day, and our 20L dry bag is $10 each for the day.
We have several meeting locations in the Kahalu'u area and all within a few miles of Kualoa Beach Park or access points to the Kaneohe Sand Bar. A confirmation text message will be sent to your cell phone on the day of your reservation with directions to that day's specific meeting location.
Please make note of your scheduled start/pickup time from the confirmation email and arrive promptly.
Please call if there was a time you want that is not listed for booking, i.e., after 10:00am. We may be able to create an availability for you.
All rented gear must be returned by close of business during normal business hours as noted by confirmation email and text message after booking.
A $25 late fee will be charged per boat for every 15 minutes past your scheduled drop off time.
Please contact your adventure host if you would like to schedule an early return time.
Aloha! We started Ka Wai Adventures on the island of Kauai in 2021. In 2024, we relocated our company to Oahu. Our vision for Ka Wai Adventures is to help visitors enjoy the beauty of our islands without breaking the bank. We are excited to help you make cherished memories and greatly appreciate each and every one of our customers. We look forward to serving you. If you have any questions, please contact us. Mahalo!
We don’t have an official storefront, like one may be used to. We have several meet up locations in the Wailua area, all within 3 miles, or less, of the Wailua River. You will be contacted by text message 1 to 2 hours prior to your booking with the exact meeting location.
Of course! We help you load your kayak(s) and instruct you, if necessary, on how to use ratchet straps.
Thats correct! We have universal and XL adult sizes, as well as sizes that may fit your children.
Life jackets, paddles, foam blocks, and ratchet straps are all included. We also have a map with written instructions for the Wailua River and we provide a quick safety briefing before you head out on your adventure.
Offsite kayak companies are not permitted to deliver kayaks to the Wailua River, which is why all offsite companies will have customers car top the kayaks. Our mobility allows us to meet our customers at the most convenient locations nearest the Wailua River. We provide all of the equipment needed for you to successfully car-top your kayaks or paddle boards.
Of course! When you’ve reached the kayak parking, just be aware of where you left your equipment. There aren’t usually any pirates on the river, but we still recommend you bring your personal belongings.
SUP fins can be easily damaged by running them into shallow, rocky areas. We kindly ask that you pull the boards out of the water mindfully to protect these expensive fins from being damaged. Mahalo
Ka Wai Adventures kayaks have been one of a kind in appearance, which makes them easy to spot. Our double kayaks are all camouflage blue with our logo sticker on the side. We have yet to have any problems with people taking the wrong kayaks or equipment.
