Paddling at Wai Kai lagoon

The Lineup at Wai Kai in Ewa Beach is a large, protected lagoon with flat, calm water, which makes it one of the easiest places on Oahu to try kayaking or stand-up paddleboarding. The paddle pass gives you time on the lagoon with the equipment provided.

It is a good choice for beginners, families and anyone who finds the open ocean intimidating. Combine it with a surf session on the wave or other lagoon activities on the same day. For ocean paddling and snorkeling, see Oahu snorkeling; for the wave, see surf lessons; for more on the lagoon, see Oahu attractions.
