Ultimate Day In Hawaii | Kayaking to the Mokes | Lanikai Pillbox Hike | Manoa Chocolate Tasting

Welcome to an ultimate day of adventure in Hawaii! We started the day in Kailua by hiking the Lanikai Pillbox trail for the picturesque sunrise. Afterwards, we kayaked from Kailua Beach to Moku Nui island. These are the two islands you see on your sunrise hike. We saw our very first monk seals on the beach of the island! We finished the ultimate day off with a sweet trip to the Manoa Chocolate factory! We love Hawaii and all of it's wonderful experiences. Let us know in the comment section your perfect day in Hawaii. Mahalo for watching!

I just saw the videos you have made. I used to live in Orlando. I loved Orlando. I enjoy ur videos. A beautiful fun loving couple living the dream the smart way. I have always wanted to move to Hawaii and this has helped educate me on if I do eventually move there. Thank you for teaching how to live more affordable life in the paradise of Hawaii. Blessings to the both of you. It’s good to see you two having the time enjoying life after working hard all week. God Bless you. Continue to keep more videos for all of us to enjoy beautiful Hawaii.

[@patmarch28]

@@DennyandNikki from nov to January 11. we went to 3 islands . we were on vacation. it was our 4th times going there.

[@DennyandNikki]

@@patmarch28 That sounds amazing! Such a long vacation, you guys are lucky :)

[@arweir09]

loving your adventures! what drone do you use? Awesome video! Thank you for sharing :)

[@DennyandNikki]

Thanks for watching! We have been using the Mavic 2 Zoom drone. It's Denny's favorite toy! Are you thinking about getting one?

[@arweir09]

@@DennyandNikki yes- would love to get a drone soon. Still researching on which to get-- nothing too high tech.

[@DennyandNikki]

@@arweir09they are a lot of fun. We don't regret purchasing ours. You might want to check out the original mavic mini. It's not too expensive but still takes amazing video.

[@Tloc103]

Lugging that damn kayak over that beach was so much work. Never again

[@DennyandNikki]

I had to laugh at this comment! It's definitely not easy if the beach is crowded! So we feel you!

[@Tloc103]

@@DennyandNikki ahahah yeah it was crowded

[@DOMtheeDogo]

Hey love your channel. My family and I are going to Oahu in august. Was wondering how much it was to rent a kayak to get to the mokes?

[@DennyandNikki]

It's an awesome adventure. A single kayak starts at $69 and a double kayak is 85$. It's a few more dollars for the permit. We always use Kailua Beach Adventures. Hope this helps! :)

[@DOMtheeDogo]

@@DennyandNikki thank you so much.

[@eddibetty10]

From Kailua adventures how long dis it take to paddle out to the mokes? Thanks

[@DennyandNikki]

Depends on the weather and people, but it took us about 40 minutes to get from Kailua Beach to the Mokes.

[@lizdancer1023]

Hi, how long did it take you to kayak out to the moke and back?

[@DennyandNikki]

About 40 minutes one way. Same time frame for the way back.

[@monicagail]

Hi where did you rent the kayak? :)

[@DennyandNikki]

At kailua beach adventures :)

[@ayla7308]

Do you guys ever feel lonely/isolated in Hawaii?

[@DennyandNikki]

We have never felt lonely on the island, luckily we have met people we really like! But we do feel isolated at times, family and friends are far away (with major time differences) and we love to do road trips and see different places/states, which is always a long plane flight away.

[@solitudeinthewild82]

Nice video, my friend! Lovely kayaking! Best way to relax, haveing some whater adventure isn't it? 😉 The nature Is amazing, too.. Enjoyed watching a lot! Cheers from Russia, Denny , and how about visiting my channel as well? I've got something to share about floating, camping, and other! Anyway, best wishes in all your plans and beginnings!
