Hawaii Kai is built around a man-made marina that opens to Maunalua Bay, which is where tourists and locals partake in a variety of water sports including paddling outrigger canoes, jet skiing, kayaking and fishing. And with the support of Koko Marina Center, with its collection of specialty shops and eateries, people from around the island partake in Hawaii Kai's offerings. Before jumping in the ocean, visit the local ocean activity stores for the proper equipment. A Reef Adventure Inc., Aloha Dive Shop, Big Sky Parasail Inc., Fun Island Watersports, Local Motion, Sea Breeze Parasailing and Suyderhoud Water Ski & Wake Board Center Inc. are just a few to choose from. Make sure to grab a picnic lunch at Yummy Korean Bar-B-Q, Assaggio Hawaii Kai (Italian), Kozo Sushi (Japanese) or Joy Garden Chinese Seafood Restaurant.
