Kohala Ditch Adventures
Kohala Ditch Adventures Review
Formerly Flumin' Da Ditch, this 2½-hour guided kayak cruise through an old irrigation ditch reveals a dramatic part of Kohala history. The tour begins with an off-road excursion high in the Kohala mountains, followed by a short hike to the ditch, where you'll paddle along with the guides through 2½ miles of rain forest, tunnels, and water flumes. The surrounding valleys provided water for the Kohala Ditch, which once brought water to the area's sugar plantations and transported crops out. The rate is $139 per adult.
