Molokai’s mysterious and magnificent north shore with the highest sea cliffs in the world, makes the perfect place for kayak adventure.
During the summer months, when the waters on the north shore are calm, you can paddle from remote valley to remote valley, spending a week or more exploring the exotic terrain. More than 28 miles of maritime marvels await you.
However, most of Molokai is for the experienced kayaker only. You must be adept in paddling through open ocean swells and rough waves.
