Occasionally we are paddling hard for a few miles against water that's choppy and has some big swells, which is quite exciting. The water is intense shades of turquoise, azure, green, to deep blue. We usually paddle about two hours at a stretch, then stop for a snack or lunch, then paddle a little more and set up camp, depending on the campsite. We camp under the trees, set up a table and chairs around the campfire, eat great meals, drink Kona coffee and good teas, possibly enjoy a brief paddle with empty boats at sunset or moonlight, and occasionally see dolphins frolicking in the bay in the morning. Both doubles and singles are available.
Some singles have rudders.
Paddles are black Cannon asymmetric paddles with a fiberglass shaft. We shop for food at local small farms and and buy from local fishermen whenever possible. Humpback whales arrive for a few months in the winter. We always keep a respectful distance when in their presence. These are species protected by the Marine Mammal Protection Act which says that we should stay 100 yards away from whales and 50 yards away from dolphins.
