Discover the calm and scenic beauty of Hilo from a new perspective on this relaxing kayak tour along the Wailoa River. Suitable for ages 8 and up (minors under 18 must be accompanied by an adult), this adventure is ideal for beginners and families.
Launch easily from the Wailoa boat ramp and glide upriver through lush tropical landscapes. Paddle beneath graceful Japanese-style bridges and enjoy the peaceful flow of the river, which means “long water” in Hawaiian.
Along the route, spot native birds, fish, and unique coastal flora. Midway, take a break near the iconic King Kamehameha Statue where your guide shares stories about Hilo’s history, from the ancient Hawaiian kingdom to powerful tsunamis.
