Christmas in Hawaii
Happy Holidays!! It is the time to be thankful, to remember our loved ones, to sing carols, and to most importantly… GIVE! And sometimes we are so caught up in baking or singing or last minute shopping for decorations we forget a thoughtful present. Lucky for you, and the gift-receiver, Rainbow Watersports has a GIFT CARD! This Gift Card is the best present for 3 simple reasons.
1) Easy, flexible, and affordable for you- can be any amount you put on the card or any activity
2) Can be last minute and still be very meaningful and specific
3) Whoever receives this Gift Card gets an unforgettable memory on the water on the North Shore- BECAUSE OF YOU!!
Now I know this is a picture of a Santa Surfing (courtesy of HDW website) , but nonetheless ’tis the season to get on a Stand Up Paddle Board and enjoy the water with loved ones or give them the opportunity to experience the fun! You can order them online on our homepage or very easily call us and we can set one up to your specific needs!

Paddleboarding while the Sun is Setting
Here in Hawaii we sometimes take the breathtaking Sunsets for granted! The sky turns into an array of colors including the brightest purples and a soft burnt orange. The former light blue dome that had surrounded us during the midday now is a spacious rainbow from the Mountain Tops to the end of the ocean. The whole horizon is now an ever-changing vibrant sea of dancing colors. Ending with a spectacular drop of the sun below sight and the radiant colors slowly begin to dissolve into a rich, dark blue.
Now imagine this fascinating sunset while enjoying the ocean on top of a paddleboard, confidently stroking towards the Hale’iwa Bay. Bright and large turtles gracefully flying under your board. And a distant, but distinct peacock crows over yonder in the Anahulu River. This could easily be you and your family… or a special date night with someone you love! And if you have had the opportunity to enjoy our Sunset Session before please feel free to write your own testimonial!
Like all Private Lessons: PICTURES ARE INCLUDED!!
NEW Beautifully Painted Rainbow Van
Aloha All!
As I know we all loved the Rainbow Watersports brightly painted van, but it’s time had come for the old, clankity girl to rest. We were sad to see it go with the VERY cool Map that showed where all of our paddlers came from!!
We have revamped a NEW and IMPROVED Van to show off our BEAUTIFULLY painted Rainbow to the World! Well, to everyone passing through Haleiwa Town. Since we are located right in front of Jameson’s Restaurant in the Haleiwa Bay, everyone can come see our Rainbow Van and see the new special features on it. We have painted some of our own paddleboard instructors on the sides, with a HUGE sun on the very front and a special surprise on the back… Dolphins and Turtles:)
Come to Haleiwa Bay and check out our new Van and take a Paddleboard lesson with the finest instuctors on the Island of Oahu! We all love teaching this new skill and confidence on the water… and in the Anahulu River. Safety is first, and then FUN FUN FUN!! Come Play With Us!!
Thank you,
Mariah!!
Paddling with Dolphins!
Dolphins are frequent where we paddle during the months of July and August on the North Shore of Oahu.
Yesterday the ocean was like glass and as we dropped off the van at the bay, we could see spinner dolphins leaping out of the water and splashing all around. I, my mother in law, and three of my children quickly hopped on some boards and paddled over. It was AWESOME!!! Dolphins remind us humans to have fun 🙂
Of course, they’re wild and we cannot guarantee spottings, but if you want to have the BEST chance of seeing dolphins and being right up close to them, take the Coastal Eco-Adventure, especially during the months of July and August. Each morning they migrate from the west coast to Waimea Bay. We see them quite often this time of year because we paddle the same course they swim each morning.
You can check out the video here on our website at the Home Page!
