If you’re looking for a great experience and staff please stop looking! Steve is the best tour guide we’ve ever had. He’s so great with kids as well and his staff made sure we felt our children were in good hands. When you see a smile on everyone’s face you know the day was worth every penny. Honestly it felt like we were hanging out with uncle Steve all day, he’s funny, caring and so laid back we actually became more laid back. We did the 7:00am to 4:00pm tour and I wouldn’t change one thing about it. When we come back to Hawaii again we’re definitely repeating this day! Mahalo nui loa uncle Steve!

We booked a 2-hour paddleboarding tour with Steve. My wife, 16 year old son, and his friend all had varying degrees of experience ranging from never to novice. Steve did a great job teaching us how to stand, paddle; and properly fall into the water. Once we were in the water Steve patiently coached us and before long everyone was standing, paddling, laughing and having the time of our lives. We saw so many turtles, fish, and gorgeous foliage.

After our time on the water Steve took us on a jeep tour and showed us all the sites! Everywhere we went people shouted out to Steve as if he was some kind of celebrity! I think he is! He’s the nicest guy with the most chill vibe while still being enthusiastic about his home island!

We will be back and will definitely book Sea and Board Sports crew for more adventures on Oahu!

We did the clear kayak tour with Steve, which was a very unique method for viewing marine life. The clear kayak definitely was not as maneuverable as a regular kayak, but was worth the extra viewing access, especially when passing over the reefs. Unfortunately the winds picked up, and the water got too choppy to snorkel, so we just pivoted and kayaked up a nearby river, which was teaming with turtles. We saw numerous turtles, both sunning on the shore, and swimming in the river. Steve was an awesome tour guide, making sure all the kids stayed engaged. He even brought a young girl onto his paddle board, and had her paddle his board for a while. Steve offers numerous other activities, which I would not hesitate to use him for, but we only did the clear kayak, highly recommend.

My family was so excited to experience this. There was my husband and I plus our 4 kids. The drive to the north shore from the Waikiki area was beautiful and the north shore area is so calm and peaceful, way less hustle and bustle from the Honolulu side. The business stand was easy to find in the roadside with a marked tent on the beach. After arriving about 25 mins early we were told to wait for another couple joining our ride. After their arrival we all got a quick and I mean QUICK talk on how to use the paddles to move and turn. That’s it! Mind you this was my family’s first time ever kayaking. We all got into our kayaks and were told to basically follow behind our guides. There was no help, these young men who were the guides didn’t offer much assistance. My husband and 21y/o old daughter couldn’t move just turned circles plus my husband can’t swim so he was terrified to be out there anyways. But the the guides didn’t help much at literally left them in the back to fend for themselves. My 17 y/o son and 13 y/o daughter were in a kayak ahead of me doing well and keeping up. I was with my youngest, my 10 y/o son. We were doing fairly well but I was doing most of the work since his little arms were struggling. I had to ask one of the guides to go back and check on my husband and daughter as they had basically already crossed over to the opposite of from where we started. Unfortunately we never saw any fish! My two teens were able to see a couple turtles from a far but not under their glass bottom kayak. Eventually my husband gave up and turned back to shore because this company wasn’t much help to him. My older daughter was offered by the guide to go in a kayak with him so she could still participate. After the ocean ride next was a river ride. I opted not to go down the River as my arms were tired and my little son was done from all his hard effort. I waved my hands to the guides and let them know that o was going back to shore. One guide followed us while the other plus my daughter, my two teens, and the other couple all headed to the River. They were gone over and hour but seemed to enjoy it upon their return. I wish this company gave better and more thorough instruction. Also more assurance to people who can’t swim. And maybe more help along the way. I would not recommend a glass bottom kayak we were told they are much harder to control than the regular ones and they definitely were. Also since you so no ocean life it’s not worth the extra cost!!

I'm so sorry this wasn't a pleasurable experience for you, this is a physical activity and especially since it was a very windy day that day. Your safety is the most important, We were limited to going into to ocean since the winds were so strong, we couldn't take you out to the reef where all the turtles, and fish are, since you were having trouble navigating the kayaks. However I will share this with our staff, and would like to invite you back at no charge and do the tour with you myself. Please give us a call and we will reschedule you at no cost. But your husband gave them a very generous tip thanking them , and the kids did say it was a very bomb tour. But I will honor a complementary tour with all of when you can make it. Thank you

We were in Waikiki trying to book a last minute session for kayaking for our family. The challenge was to accommodate 10 people for the same session; Sea and Board Sports were kind and fast to book a reservation last minute, they send us the information right away for the next morning! When our family showed up next morning they were nice and professional; the six teenagers participating of this adventure love the friendliness and the beautiful experience. They even got to see turtles! If you need professionals helping you with your sea experience, do not hesitate in contacting Sea and Board Sports Hawaii.

Being able to SUP in Hawaii, particularly in Haleiwa, had been my goal for a year and thanks to Steve, the owner of Sea & Board Sports, I was able to achieve that goal. He was our guide for the day and he was so accommodating and patient with our group. We were able to paddle board with a couple of turtles as well. I would definitely recommend Steve and his crew for anyone who wants to experience SUP in Hawaii.

My daughter and I took surfing lessons with Jacy. He was amazing and very accommodating to my last minute scheduling request. The location made the logistics easy for us first time surfers. His instructions and ability to help us time the waves properly made surfers out of both of us. It was an unforgettable day on the North Shore!

A truly amazing and personal experience. My wife and I did this on the Go Oahu Pass and could not be more satisfied. They do a great job of making sure you are comfortable and safe. The care for each person (there was 4 in our group) was just beyond expectation. Great job teaching you the basics for how to surf. Lots of choices but get away from Waikiki and choose Sea and Board Sports. Do the 2 hour and be ready for the next day, YOU WILL BE SORE, but it will be a great feeling.
Also they do photos, $50 a couple, so leave your phones and go pros and just surf.

Steve is super friendly and flexible. He customized our experience for what my wife and I were interested in doing. He provided helpful training and insight. He took us to beaches and spots we wouldn’t have found on our own. He also did tours for many of our colleagues and they all spoke highly of him, and many hired him multiple times.
