Our one-of-a-kind unique ATV experience begins with an fun and exciting off-road trail ride down to the southern shoreline with a visit to a hidden green-sand bay, black lava fields and a forested area at Ka'alu'alu Bay close to South Point on the Big Island of Hawaii (this is not the same island as Honolulu, check before you book.) We'll have a chance to observe native green sea turtles floating in the clear aquamarine colored waters just off the shoreline along with an assortment of other wildlife. The tropical waters here are so clear you can see the tropical fish from the shore. We encourage guests to bring snacks and beverages (in enclosed containers) to enjoy on the trail. There are many opportunities to take photos, explore the shoreline, bay and beaches. Due to the rough seas, open ocean and strong current on this side of the island, we do not advise or recommend swimming along this coastline. Furthermore, entering the ocean is at your own risk during the guided tour.
