A return to an old stomping ground! Meet at the He’eia Kea Small Boat Harbor’s canoe hale at 9:00 AM. Bring lunch and snorkel gear, if so inclined. The route goes across part of the Sandbar (Ahu O Laka) and may get shallow at spots so bring reefwalkers or tennies/tabies for crossing shallow spots and the rocky landing on the island.
The first half of this paddle is not the most scenic, but once you pass the Kalaeloa Harbor entrance you cruise by the plush Ko Olina Resort. The reef in front of Ko Olina and the Kahe Power Plant cooling water discharge pipe are great snorkeling spots.
