Ali’i Kayaks & Watersports offers one of Kauai’s most memorable outdoor adventures, guiding guests along the scenic Wailua River and on to the island’s beloved Secret Falls. With a convenient riverside location, thoughtful service...
Kayaking the Wailua River to Uluwehi Falls is one of Kauai's most popular adventures, and this outfitter makes it easy to pull off. Guides like K-man, Mana, and Sam consistently get called out by name for being knowledgeable, funny, and genuinely engaging, turning what could be a basic river trip into a trip highlight. Equipment is solid, dry bags and a cooler are included, and the self-guided rental option is a great fit for people who want to move at their own pace. A couple of reviewers noted that the guided tours can feel a bit rushed compared to other outfitters, so if a leisurely pace matters to you, it's worth keeping that in mind when you book. That said, the overwhelming majority of guests leave happy, and the aloha spirit from the staff comes up again and again as something that sets the experience apart.
Yes absolutely rent kayaks from here! Easy access without having to load your kayaks and drive them! The paddle to secret falls is beautiful and fairly easy! The hike to Secret Falls is a fairly easy hike! This is one of our favorite things we did last time we visited! Would recommend and can’t wait to do it again when we return!
