Santa Caught Ziplining in Hawai‘i

Santa Claus was seen flying over Maunakea by zipline. The first ever “Christmas in Paradise” with KapohoKine Adventures had Santa, Mrs. Claus and Elves taking guests on a walk through Honoli‘i woods. Upon reaching a Hawai‘i wonderland, they climbed a suspended ramp and zipped through the sky on Line 7, followed by a nearly one-half mile on Line 8 with views of waterfalls and gorgeous ravines.

Afterwards, a short van ride along Honolii river gorge brought everyone together to a festive decorated pavilion overlooking an 80-foot double waterfall. Families enjoyed brunch while keiki spent time with Santa and creating Christmas crafts.
