Departure location may be subject to change during the summer months due to high tide that creates a rough shorebreak. For the safety of our guests we will not use our boarding ladder on the shoreline and will move to our pier. In this case, we will reach out to you on the day of your activity if high tide is forecasted during the time of your tour. Departure location will then be: Ala Wai Harbor.
