LightSUP Hawai‘i Puakō

"We had such an amazing time on our sunset paddle. The paddle boards were very unique and we got to see the reefs and sea creatures incredibly clearly. The guides, Mark and Jamie, were well prepared and planned a really fun time. We got to watch the sunset while spotting whales, and once it got dark, we saw eels, fish, a turtle, and many other sea creatures through the window on the board. This was definitely a memorable experience!"

"A Mesmerizing Night-Time Paddle Boarding Experience with Lights Up Hawaii Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I had the pleasure of experiencing something truly out of this world with Lights Up Hawaii. Their night-time paddle boarding adventure is nothing short of magical. Gliding on the water with light-up paddle boards offered a unique and enchanting view of the ocean’s beauty. It was like being part of a vibrant, glowing world, where every stroke illuminated the sea life below in an array of colors. A huge shout-out to my guide, Mark, for making this experience even more special. His knowledge, enthusiasm, and guidance added depth to an already amazing adventure. Mark’s professionalism and passion for the ocean were evident, making me feel safe and engaged throughout the journey. This experience is a must for anyone looking to connect with nature in a novel and mesmerizing way. Lights Up Hawaii has set the bar high for ocean adventures, offering an intimate and unforgettable journey through the wonders of the sea at night. I highly recommend them to anyone seeking an extraordinary ocean experience. Thank you, Lights Up Hawaii and Mark, for an evening that I will always cherish!"

"I had an amazing time at LightSUP paddle boarding. My guide Mark was great at knowing the spots to look for fish at night. I paddled out of the Kona location and spent the beginning paddling out along the buoys to see a gorgeous sunset and then we added the lights as we came back into the bay. Mark took a bunch of pictures and shared them with me at the end of the night! We saw a bunch of fish and coral including some bluefin jacks and eels! I would highly recommend the tour to anyone if you’re interested in getting a different perspective on seeing fish in Hawaii!"

"Fantastic morning paddle on beautiful Puako Bay this morning! Visited a turtle cleaning station! Wow, never thought I'd see that! Such a great time with LightSUP's Kelly who is a knowledgeable guide to the local ecosystem. The viewing window in their SUPs is a brilliant idea...so easy to see more if the reef and all its critters! Turtles and manta rays love these waters! Turtles are right near the sandy beach that is the launch spot."
