About this experience

Aloha, welina mai, ‘ano ‘ai. Greetings, and welcome, from Hawai’i! Located on the famous North Shore beachfront of O’ahu, North Shore Stables is a locally-owned gem nestled in the quiet, countryside of Waialua.
As locals, we will greet you like ohana (family) as you drive your own 2022 Kawasaki All Terrain Vehicle (ATV) through 80 acres of beachfront farm lands, onto our signature ATV track, and directly help to restore Hawaiiʻs shoreline with a variety of 49 native Hawaiian shoreline plants that prevent erosion. Learn the 1,000 year history of Kapukapuakea and its spiritual and physical connection to Taputapuatea, a world heritage site recognized by UNESCO.

This is the only tour on O’ahu that allows you to drive your own 4-wheel ATV! This is NOT a UTV which has a steering wheel and one driver with passengers.
