Overview

Find a sunset state of mind, cruising along the Napali Coast, one of Hawaii’s most stunning and humbling landscapes. Come aboard our clean, sleek 65’ Kauai-built power catamaran and let us hand you a beverage (craft beer, wine, Koloa Rum Mai Tai, juice, soda) to sip and enjoy as we cruise north and west, keeping our eyes peeled for wildlife such as spinner dolphins, green sea turtles and, seasonally (December-April), humpback whales. Oooh and Aaah the afternoon away as we travel along Kauai’s most sacred coast, witnessing her unthinkable beauty and learning about this historical area that was once home to tens of thousands of people. We’ll serve you a delicious meal, and we’ll raise a toast as the sun falls below the horizon and another night begins. Treat yourselves to the best, and come cruise with us.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Will I get seasick on Kauai: Na Pali Sunset & Sightsee Boat Tour?

A: If you have any doubts about becoming seasick on the water, we recommend taking a Dramamine® Motion Sickness Relief tablet the night before your trip. Some people recommend taking it the night before your cruise and then again that morning so you will not feel so drowsy. Read more Feb 2023
