As promised, here's the Followup on the post about Secret Falls. Ali'i Kayak Tours is a great adventure. We booked this right at Pono Kai. It was only $39.95 and it was a great value. You bring your own lunch and the tour includes a hike to secret falls. They provide a waterproof bag so you can take things along and your stuff will stay dry. The whole tour takes four to five hours. You kayak for about an hour to get to the falls. The hike isn't that far but because the trail is slippery and has some hills, it does take awhile to get there. Bring aqua shoes. We had some people with brand new white tennis shoes and by the time they went 100 yards their shoes were ruined. Kauai is famous for the red dirt and it stains. I don't think you would ever get those stains out. At the end of the hike you are rewarded at Secret Falls. You can have your lunch there and swim out to the falls. This should be on everyone's bucket list.
The guide was great. We had Kimo and we actually met him on the plane to Lihue. He told us where he worked and we checked at the Pono Kai when we got there. My daughter won a buy one get one free Ali'i Kayak tour at the island orientation at the Pono Kai. That made a good deal even better.
You don' t have to be an athlete to do this tour but you do have to do some hiking on muddy tails and do some paddling against the rivers current.
