Private Paddleboard Adventure
The clear, calm waters of Makena Landing are the perfect place to learn to stand up paddleboard. Not only will you learn a new skill but you’ll also get to hang out with our local green sea turtles! We offer discounted rates for groups of five or more.
Trip Details
What to Expect on the Day
We’ll start the morning with some on land instruction about safety and a run down of what we can expect out on the water. We’ll give you some pointers on paddling technique and how to keep your balance on the board. Once you’re feeling prepared, we’ll hit the water!
Whether you’re a first timer or have some paddleboarding experience, we’re sure you’ll love paddling in the crystal clear waters of Makena.
What we Do is Up to You
As our SUP lessons are completely private, how we spend the time is up to you. If you need more instruction or time practicing on the boards, then no problem. If you feel confident and you want to start cruising around looking for turtles straight away, then off we go!
SUP Maui's Pristine Waters
Not only is Makena blessed with calm, clear, turtle-filled waters, it’s also extremely picturesque. There’s no better or more relaxing way to spend a morning in Maui than paddling around with the local sea life. We’re sure this will be a highlight of your Hawaiian vacation!
Respecting Our Ocean Friends
We can’t guarantee what you’ll see on the day but you might spot some local residents like green sea turtles, eels, octopus, triggerfish, butterflyfish, surgeonfish, urchins and rays. Keep your eyes peeled for the famous Humuhumunukunukuapua’a fish (we just call it humuhumu for short!). We respect all wild animals which means we don’t touch or annoy them during our tours.
Whales are generally visiting Maui from December to April. Our kayak tours will get you up nice and close to them but please note that we are required by law to stay 100 yards away at all times.
Green Paddling | Blue Water
Green Paddling Blue Water represents our core values of Sustainable Tourism and Education. We aim to operate our business in a way that ‘leaves no trace’ on the environment. On our tours we promote the use of sun protective clothing and hats to minimise the use of sunscreen which can have a damaging effect on our reefs. Please keep this in mind when preparing for your tour and if you must use sunscreen please apply it before you arrive so it has sufficient time to soak into your skin.
