What To Expect

Come travel along Haleiwa Bay and up the Anahulu stream, home of the Green Hawaiian Sea Turtles. Although turtle sightings aren't guaranteed, they are very common in our location. Whatever your experience level, we'll help you improve your stand up paddle ability. You'll also learn about Hawaiian fauna and its uses, and the uniqueness of historic Haleiwa town.

We, Rainbow Watersports, are the original stand up paddle school on Oahu's North Shore, making people happy for 13 years now. Come “Stand Up” for a great cause: a portion of our profits go toward Operation Underground Railroad to help rescue children from sex slavery.

Frequently Asked Questions (9)

Q: Will I get seasick on Group Stand Up Paddle Lesson and Tour?

A: If you have any doubts about becoming seasick on the water, we recommend taking a Dramamine® Motion Sickness Relief tablet the night before your trip. Some people recommend taking it the night before your cruise and then again that morning so you will not feel so drowsy. Read more Feb 2023
