Captain cook monument kayak

Kayak to Captain Cook

Kealakekua Bay, Captain Cook Monument

We recommend two people rent a two-person (tandem) kayak rather than two individual kayaks.  With your rental, you get a soft rack that fits any vehicle, paddles, a dry bag (for cameras, wallets, etc.), a soft cooler (for lunch), and tie down straps Kayaking across Kealakekua Bayfor your gear.  When you get to Kealakekua (view online map), offload all of your equipment from your vehicle.   Make sure you bring everything you think you will need, there are is no food or water or any facilities at Captain Cook.  We recommend you bring: sunscreen, hat, enough water for the day, food/snacks, shirt or rash guard to avoid the hot sun, and your snorkeling or SCUBA diving gear.Kona Hawaii Temple
