THE PACKAGE

Best-value all-in-one access

The Wai Kai Experience Package combines the park’s signature surf lesson, the AquaVenture floating obstacle course, the AquaPeakz elevated challenge, and a Paddle Pass for multi-craft access — plus VIP perks — delivering a single-ticket day of mixed-pace water activities for friends and families.

THE SURF

Wai Kai Wave surf lessons for first-timers

The surf lesson is designed for beginners: no paddling or pop-ups required, with boards, leash and safety gear provided and coaching from certified instructors to introduce the thrill of standing and riding a wave in a controlled environment.

THE FAMILY ZONE

Inflatables, elevated challenges and keiki play

From the high-energy AquaVenture floating obstacle course and the over-water AquaPeakz challenge to a Keiki Course and an Ohana Splash Pad, Wai Kai stages activity zones that range from toddler-friendly wading and play to strength- and balance-focused challenges for older kids.

What the day feels like

What the day feels like

The bundle reads like a circuit of progressive thrills: a coached introduction to wave-riding on the Wai Kai Wave, free-form exploration of the 52-acre lagoon by paddlecraft, then timed runs across inflatable obstacles and elevated elements — all packaged to let groups mix instruction, play and self-guided water time across a full day or an afternoon access period.
