Go Bananas Watersports

This rental store provides excellent service for a very reasonable price.
We rented a double kayak the other day for $ 45 for the entire day, the rental fee also includes life jackets, paddles, leashes for the paddles, a dry bag, soft racks for your car so you can travel with your kayak or other rental, and detailed instructions by an employee on how to use the equipment and helpful tips.
I highly recommend renting water equipment from Go Bananas!

I’ve been to both go bananas on Oahu and every time I have been in gone whether to buy gear or make alterations to my kayak the staff has every single time gone above and beyond to make sure that I was well taken care of. Excellent customer service.
Oumar.

Went in once, didn’t buy anything. However, the staff is so friendly, helpful, and knowledgable. If you have a question and they don’t have the answer to it, they will make phone calls to find out. Now a days, that kind of service is hard to come by. If ever, maybe, I feel like taking up kayaking or SUP, then I’ll be sure to make here my first stop.

Great experience.
I bought a roof rack and a truck rack for my Nissan truck. The sales rep and installers really took their time explaining for me the costs and options for my vehicle and the stuff I planned to haul to and from the beach and in daily use.
They installed the equipment professionally and even spent time to make sure I knew how to adjust and gave me some tips definitely not found in any manual.
I would definitely go back again.

Stopped by to pick up a additional bike each for the roof! SERVICE WAS SUPER FAST! he literally installed it in 10 minutes and had me out the door and on my way awesome!

Awesome experience shopping here. They’ve got an impressive Yakima inventory and Steve was knowledgeable and courteous. He took the time to hunt down a special part for installing a Yakima Basket Case on my factory roof rack. I’lll be back again!

Went here looking for more info on getting a roof rack and showed up near closing time. Was surprised at how helpful these guys where. Answering all my questions about a Yakima roof rack and helping decide on what the best choice would be for my vehicle. I had been looking at getting a roof rack for months and they made the decision easy. Decided to buy and have them install. (super cheap at $ 20!!) With it being just about time for them to close up shop, i didn’t hear them complain once and still had service with a smile. Such a great easy going staff that’s helpful and makes you feel welcome.
Thanks for the great service and install. I will def. be back to get all the add ons for my rack here.

I went in with issues with my yakima roof racks that i got for xmas. my application was a little different than what was intended by yakima. After a quick explanation and a quick visual of my issue, the staff all helped me out by finding a bar that would fit and let me test it out to see if it would work as well. I even picked up a few more items which they also tried to test fit before i left as well. I cant thank them enough for helping me get the right fitment and walking out a satisfied customer. I will be back for sure thanks again!

Awesome customer service! They got me the roof rack that my car needed and installed it too! Friendly and very helpful :)

My husband, his sister and myself had a very positive experience renting 3 kayaks here. They explained everything they were giving me and how it worked and what it’s purpose was. Gave me all the equipment I needed including the car rack. Had enough staff to help everyone that was in the store. Were very quick and attentive and helpful, friendly and kind. Everything was explained for how to put the kayak on the car and he put it all on for me while explaining it so I would know how to do it. The set-​up for the kayak and putting it on the roof of the car is genius and pretty easy even for someone who isn’t good with stuff like this. We will rent or possibly buy a kayak from Go Bananas Water Sports in the future!

Chris gave me great service and they hooked me up with a roof rack for my Mazda. Very happy! I will come back.

Chris & Steve knows their stuff. The setup for my Frontier was not the easiest to configure. They were able to give me all the possible setup for my surfboards, SUP and an OC1. I would definitely come back to use their services should I add to my configuration.

If you need gear for SUP, kayaking, any watersports really, Go Bananas is the way to go. I’ve gotten many things here over the years and the service is always friendly and they take time to help you find the right thing for what you need.
Parking is shared with Dixie Grill and Wally Ho’s but usually it’s fine. Prices are good and its well located on Kam hwy!

I got exactly what I needed, and saw more stuff that I want! I’ll be back!

I’ve rented a SUP board here and my boyfriend bought my Yakima racks from this location. Wonderful, helpful, friendly and knowledgeable staff.
What I liked best is that they remembered us purchasing the racks when we returned months later to rent the SUP board.
Thanks!

Sure, you got a new set of wheels, the ocean is calling for you & that stand up paddle board is ready to go. But what do you do when there’s no way to strap it on to your ride? No worries, just Go Bananas!
Seriously, Go Bananas. This place not only has a great selection of high quality roof racks, there’s also surf & stand-​up paddle boards, kayaks & a ton of accessories.
The customer service here is great. I was helped by Brad, who was very knowledgeable & even took the time to show me exactly how to assemble my surf racks. It took a lot of effort for him to make a sale on this day. Some sort of event was going on at the entrance to the store involving a Chinese dragon, dancers & a bunch of loud drums. I felt a little bad for him, having to compete with all that noise, but he dealt with it, pausing when he had to, & sometimes even yelling at the top of his lungs.
Sure, I could have gone somewhere else to get surf racks, but the extra effort & great selection in this store had me sold. The friendly service is outstanding & sure to bring me back.

Best watersports shop EVER. The staff is soooo helpful and knowledgeable, especially Steve: D Theyre always friendly and want to help you find whatever youre looking for. Steve is great, the other younger haole guy is awesome too.
Theyve got everything from kayaks to SUP gear/​boards to OC1 stuff as well as OC6 gear and basically everything to do with outdoors activities.
I got my truck racks here. They did the installation for only $ 20 (SUPER important b/​c rack installation is really complicated and you dont wanna get anything wrong). They even readjusted it for me for free after I realized they were too far apart for my SUP board (they were good for my OC1 though). Prices are fair considering all the stuff they carry are specialty items per sport so you rarely find good quality things for «cheap». I always go back for anything i need — especially for paddling things id rather go here than Island Paddler.
