Mahina Hawaii Full Day Private Adventure, North Shore Oahu

Overview

The Mahina Hawaii Full Day Private Adventure is an 8-hour custom day on Oahu's North Shore and windward side, 10 AM to 6 PM, mixing hikes, snorkeling and kayaking at your chosen pace, from about $830 for up to 3 guests. It suits active families and small groups. The biggest drawback: the itinerary is set by phone the day before.

Highlights

• Private 8-hour day (10 AM to 6 PM) with a guide who plans the route with you by phone the day before, at a pace from beginner to what the operator calls gnarly (Greetwell listing, October 2026).
• From $830.34 flat for up to 3 guests plus $250 per additional guest on Greetwell; Viator-based listings on to-hawaii.com show $295 per person with a 3-person minimum.
• Pickup in a Honda Odyssey, snorkel gear, snacks, water and GoPro photos and videos sent after the trip are included; lunch and tips are not.
• Rated 5.0 from 203 Google reviews as displayed on Greetwell in October 2026.
• Full refund with more than 72 hours' notice; inside 72 hours no refund, though the operator will try to reschedule.

What to Expect

1. The day before, the guide calls to build an itinerary around your group's fitness and interests from options such as waterfalls, ridge or coastal hikes, snorkeling, kayaking, stand-up paddling and food stops.
2. At 10 AM the guide collects you by minivan from your hotel or from the Haleiwa meeting point listed on other resellers (62-490 Kamehameha Hwy).
3. A typical day combines one or two hikes with ocean time; the 1 Greetwell review we read describes snorkeling at a quiet turtle spot, kayaking and boogie boarding in one day.
4. Lunch is at a local food truck or eatery at your own cost; the reviewer's family ate at a food truck.
5. The guide shoots photos and videos throughout and sends them afterward at no charge.
6. You are dropped back at your hotel around 6 PM.
