Awesome experience… but have to admit… a bit pricey for 20 minutes and we had to pay for 3 people even though there were only 2 of us. Grateful for the fun regardless… we now call this safer surfing!

What could be more quintessentially Hawaiian than canoe surfing in the shadow of Diamond Head? So nostalgic that it's almost romantic... a Hawaiian dream. In my mind akin to a 1960's post card come to life! My MIL is 80 so I hesitated booking this for a split second, but anyone, ANYONE who can walk to that canoe on Waikiki Beach can do this! I don't even swim, but now know the thrill to a lesser degree of what it must feel like to actually surf. The guides were magnificent. Of the 4 of us on this trip, physical strength only applies to 1.5 of us. Guides were in boats and helped row. No problems. Fantastic experience!

Decades ago, mom and dad arranged for me and my youngest sister to take this ride. When my nephew and his lady friend came to visit Waikiki, this was high of the list of experiences to share. All of us agreed it is a most memorable activity. There were three of us, but the canoe will hold a party of four. Russell was an excellent captain. Thank you Waikiki Beach Services and Beach Boy Photography.

Had a blast, a whole new experience for someone from South Dakota, they took pictures of your ride and were very friendly and helpful.

Great experience and fun to do with kids! The guys were super professional and it was a blast. It's just too quick. We pretty much rode 3 waves and we were done.

Great way to set the tone for the first day of our family vacation! Our "captain" was an authentic native Hawaiian who made us feel welcomed. We caught three waves!

Unfortunately our Outrigger ride was cancelled due to unsafe conditions due to Hurricane Dora sitting off shore. They were unable to rebook us for another day as they were fully booked and so we are awaiting a refund.

Gutted to leave this review, because our canoe experience was really good, but unfortunately the promised images/video weren’t taken, and this after being told we couldn’t take our own images/footage. So, a really enjoyed, family experience ruined by not having any images from it, to bring back home to the UK. Disappointed. It’s not like we can just drop by and do it again. Recommend you get it clarified before going out, that the photographer is actually there.
