Weed Out the Wimps

February 22, 2026 @ 8:00 am 2:00 pm

One of the most challenging paddles on O‘ahu from the Makai Research Pier to Maunalua Bay. You’ll pass many scenic spots: the Makapu‘u Lighthouse, the rugged Kaiwi Coast, Sandy Beach, Koko Crater, the Halona Blowhole, Hanauma Bay and China Walls, but you may be too busy watching for big trade swells to appreciate the scenery. This is a LONG paddle and the only emergency bail-out is at Kapaliokamoa (Two Beer Beach) or maybe Koloko Cove. Not for the timid, but there might be whales! Meet at the left of the pier at 8:00 with a carpool at 8:30. – 9.5 mi.
