06 Paddleboarding
An ancient Hawaiian sport, paddleboarding also has a side benefit of providing core body strengthening while you're enjoying light ocean waves. Called Stand Up Paddling or SUP, it has evolved along with surfing from common origins. The Wailua River is an excellent location for SUP, and Anini Beach Park in the north has reef-based ocean life from fish to sea cucumbers to watch while you paddle above. Hanalei Bay is a natural location for SUP and if you're ready for it, the waves off of Wailua are good for a ride.
