I arrived on 15 February on the Anthem of the Seas and took a taxi excursion over to the site. We were met at the taxi by our guides. Great instruction and a friendly staff made the whole experience wonderful. They kept our belongings safe and dry and gave easy to understand instruction on how to SUP.
Both guides were attentive and friendly. Thank you!!

I paid a $65 deposit on their site for an Aug 8 10am 3 person 3 hour SUP tour. We arrived at Whitehouse Bay at about 9:50am. There were other excursions going on at the same location when we arrived. At about 10:15am, I asked one of the other excursion leaders if they knew Nick (who is the person who confirmed my booking). He did and offered to call him for me, which was very nice of him. It went to voice mail so he handed phone to me and i left a message. About 10 minutes later, a person names Nick called me back but I found out he was a different Nick from a different SUP location. He did know the people at Honu Pelikana and he also called them and left a message for them to call my wife's cell #. He also offered to help me out with a tour if my deal fell through (which was a very kind gesture).
At about 10:40am, I got a call from Ricky who said he was on the way to pick us up with their boat. When they arrived at around 11am, I was not happy. Ricky apologized and said he wanted to make us happy. Note: Ricky with Coastal View Charters is apparently contracted by Honu Pelikana to handle the excursion. Ricky offered to take us snorkeling for free in the beautiful Friars bay area which we did for about an hour. I have to say, the snorkeling there was amazing and Damion (the guide in the water with us), pointed out and brought things to the surface for us to see. Seeing urchins, fire coral, lobsters, puffer fish, etc was awesome so do yourself a favor and go snorkeling there!
After snorkeling, my wife decided to relax on the beach while my son and I went with Damion for a long SUP tour. In the end, it all worked out.
I suggest you bring your own waterproof dry bag for your clothes, phone, etc as they don't have any secure storage for your stuff (so you have to take it with you on the tour). We didn't want to leave it on the beach unattended which is another reason my wife stayed behind and didn't do the SUP tour. Also, once you are back at the Friar's Bay/Beach, there is a water taxi that can take you back to the cruise ship port ($10 per person which included water, soda, local beer and basic mixed drinks...and party music!)
I'm also a little upset that Nick from Honu Pelikana never called me or emailed me to apologize for their miscommunication. I also had to receive international roaming calls (when trying to get this matter resolved that morning) which will cost me more than a few bucks once I get my bill. I wouldn't have had to use my phone if they had arrived when they were supposed to.

My husband and I rented two boards for the day. We came in on the Carnival Fascination and took a taxi to Discovery Beach Bar (about 15 min). Someone was already there waiting with our boards and gave us brief instructions as neither of us had ever been before. After that we were off! Besides the fact that it was an extremely windy day we had a great time. The water was gorgeous and we could come and go as we pleased for the entire day. I would definitely recommend Honu Pelikana - Nick was great emailing back and forth.

This was my first time paddle boarding. The instructors were nice and very informative. I would recommend this tour to anyone that is somewhat active. It gives you a little workout but worth it.

If you've never tried paddle boarding, this is the place to do it. It's not that wavey, unless your guide tries to know you off your board. You can go at your own pace and just enjoy the scenery. Do reapply sunscreen as you the ocean washes it off and before you know it, you're burnt.

We hired Honu Pelikana for a paddle boarding experience (SUP). We came in on the Carnival Fascination and took a taxi to the Jackrock Bar no problem. Damion our guide met us there and had everything set up and ready to go. Cooler full of snacks and drinks and lounge chairs laid out in the shade. The beach was deserted except for us so that was nice. However, the waves were rolling in! This excursion got us super excited to try paddle boarding again but we didn't have much luck standing because the waves were pretty rough that day. We were told by some other reviewers that getting a taxi back to port was a little tricky but the guide would help us. He was great at everything throughout the day - however, no luck in getting us a taxi back to the port. We had to wait almost an hour for someone to come get us. The area you go to for this excursion is off the beaten path so taxis are not coming and going. We planned accordingly and everything worked out wonderful and we made it back in plenty of time. Damion was super nice and helpful and we feel we totally got our money's worth. Also, this was the first time booking an excursion outside of the cruise line and it went off without any major issues!

We booked the beach day with paddle boards, snorkeling and cooler! The Guides were great! We spent the entire day relaxing, snorkeling, paddle boarding at our own pace, in and out of the water all day.
The beach was beautiful and the restaurant bar had good food and wasn't ever crowded.
We collected sand dollars, and shells. I even found a conch shell while snorkeling.
Even the taxi ride there and back was fun. St. Kitts was a BLAST!

Our guide Damion was the best! A local & very professional! We had a great & relaxing day being in the: shade, sun, water and eating local food. There was a slight chop and constant breeze that day, so Damion allowed us to go at our own pace at learning SUP. He provided time to go snorkeling - as well as had chaise lounges and a stocked cooler ready to go under the palms. Due to the weather, we were going to cut our day short, but because of Damion & the perfect setting we stayed an additional 2 hours. As a cruise ship tourist to the area, the only suggestion I would have is to make your firm arrangements to be picked up & taken back to your ship (by a taxi) prior to your taxi leaving you at Frigate Bay. The SUP location is a little remote with not a lot of taxi's driving by. Other than that, PERFECT!

My husband and I booked this excursion while on a cruise last week. It was my birthday, and this was the excursion that I was MOST looking forward to our whole week. The owner convinced me that I should do SUP through them, instead of our cruise ship - so I took his word, and booked. We had booked the 3 hour tour thinking that this would take up a good portion of our afternoon, and actually give us alot of time on the boards. We were wrong. Our tour lasted only 1.5 hours! Half the time, but for $130!! Our guide, Ryan, was awesome - super cool guy to chat with, however, we were ultimately paying for a 3 hour tour that we did not get. I couldn't have been more disappointed, as I know the other people in our group were as well. Seems as if everyone had been expecting 3 hours with the board. When I book things like this I look for overall value, and service. They at least had the service portion down, however - the value lacked. Ultimately, I wish I had just booked this through my cruise ship and gotten a longer tour.
***Amendment to my previous review. I have since been in contact with Nicholas from the company - who apologized for the miscommunication in the trip. He said that due to this, they would be changing this on their website as well. He did offer me a partial refund, since our trip wasn't as planned.

This company is top notch! My family and I opted for the 3 hour guided tour along the coast. We did have a slight miscommunication on the tour. We had booked the guided tour and the guide thought it was the beach day. We cleared up that situation and our guide arrived at our meeting place, and taught us how to paddle board and off we went. We saw all types of marine life along the way and stopped several times to swim. Our guide was with us the entire time.

Honu Pelikana does not rent SUP boards on the island of Nevis. They are located in St Kitts at South Friars Bay. They will bring boards to a beach of your choice on St Kitts if you do not want to do SUP at South Friars.

It seems that I have lost the email address for them, but if you click on the "book now" tab, they will reply to your question. You are not actually "booking" but getting in touch with them. They are good to respond to your questions.This was a really great day for us!

Scheduled ahead! They aren't a business with a permanent building. They meet you at their location. It's a great day, but I encourage you to contact them before you sail.

We hate early mornings when we are cruising. Is there a specified time we need to be off our cruise ship and there or can we schedule when to be there? (perhaps reserve for 10-11AM?)
Thanks!

They are pretty relaxed so just email them and I am sure that you can come up with an arrangement that works for everyone. The only advantage of going earlier is that the water is calmer earlier in the day. When we went it was windy though and we still had a great time.

MY MISTAKE! I received a response from Nick within minutes of posting my question. Turns out he had an emergency to attend to and to be perfectly candid, I was impatient and inconsiderate when I wrote my question. I have no excuse and I apologize. From reading the reviews of Nick's business and now corresponding with him via email I encourage everyone to enjoy paddle boarding with Honu Pelikana and apologize for any concerns I generated.
Regards,
Kent

We are 6 adults traveling with 1 infant and four of the adults wish to try SUP. Can this be accommodated? Also, do you provide transfer from and to the cruise port?
كُتب بتاريخ 6 يناير 2015
We did the beach day where you could SUP or snorkel at any time. They provided chairs with umbrellas, so that would provide shade for the infant. They are very accommodating. You have to take a taxi to the beach where they will meet you.
