This lava tube extends into the ocean with a very narrow opening at the top, and when the surf is just right, water pressure builds up within the lava tube and erupts through the narrow opening creating a special Hawaiian Geyser for your viewing pleasure.

Great way to spend the day!
Jay_Travels330, 10-01-2023
Awesome tour! Kurt was a great guide and was quite entertaining throughout the entire trip. We got to swim with sea turtles, taste different macadamia nuts, and try pineapple whip at the Dole Plantation. Minimal walking and good amount of time at each stop to check out what there is to see. I would recommend this tour for anyone wanting to go to some of these "must see" places on Oahu!
Ohana Fun
legendarytrickshotg, 10-01-2023
Kurt and Harry were the best! From the complimentary morning call to make sure you have what you need for the day to the end of the trip. Knowledgeable, kind, and hilarious to say the least. The passion and love shown throughout the day made the whole trip worthwhile. If you don't book with them then you are missing out! They deserve 10 stars! Thank you both for all you did for us today!

Great tour first time in Oahu
Hdquezada, 30-01-2023
We toured with Kurt (guide) and Harry (driver) it was an excellent high yield tour. Our day was stormy so we did not get to so snorkel. However everything else was as described. Perfect photo ops, lunch and stops we did with them. They’re courteous entertaining and kind. They got to know us and us them. We snatched great recs of what to do in the areas we visited for future visits. I feel like we got to know the island bit better than when we started. Highly recommend them and this tour of it’s yours first time.
We got to see a turtle in the river at lunch!
The north beach is so impressive! Such amazing view throughout the tour!
Amazing!!!
elenna2023, 30-01-2023
Kurt and Harry were awesome! Very knowledgeable and we had a great time learning and seeing what Oahu has to offer. My fav has to be the fruit stand on the side of the road where we had deep fried bananas. Lunch was also delicious at the farm we stopped at! Yum shrimp! Highly recommend. Very personable trip. Would do it again.
