Such an amazing experience and Captain Greg and his crew really made it special - they were informative and attentive. We saw whales, turtles and so many dolphins. Surreal.

My wife and I had a blast, soaking up the sun and history of Kauai. Close up to the cliffs, dip in the waterfalls and a little snorkeling.... Truly a trip to remember. Bravo to Captain Kauai and crew Josh and Ryder.

We were totally pleased with this experience. The catamaran was well appointed with a great choice of seating and room to move around for various views. The staff was impeccable, very friendly and accommodating. The Captain provided a safe, smooth sailing experience in water that was at times a little rough. She provided many interesting facts about sea life, hiking and various spots where movies were filmed. The delicious breakfast and lunch was lovely too. Overall, a terrific experience and perfect way to see the beautiful Na' Pali coast. HIGHLY recommend it!

Big new boat. Amazing Captain Kaua’i shared history and culture. He knew his Cpt Cook history very well. Answered all my annoying questions as I dig into Hawaiian Language. Good food. Breakfast was served late. Eat something before you go for the morning excursion.

Captain Kauai and his crew were outstanding from start to finish. Their enthusiasm and genuine commitment to making our trip memorable truly stood out. The captain’s knowledge of the island’s history and his storytelling were second to none, and his skill navigating the boat made the entire experience feel smooth and safe. From the warm welcome at the beginning, he set the tone for an incredible day. What impressed us most was how he took the time to personally check in with every passenger to make sure everyone was comfortable and having a great time. The Na Pali coastline was absolutely breathtaking. We loved snorkeling among the fish, exploring the sea caves up close, and even getting close enough to the waterfalls to feel the mist, such an unforgettable experience. To top it off, the food was fantastic. We enjoyed delicious spam musubi for breakfast, followed by a well-timed lunch after snorkeling that included BBQ chicken, rice, salad, and cookies. Overall, this is a trip our family will truly cherish. Captain Kauai and his crew made it even more special. Highly recommended!

Few things live up to their billing, this is one. The boat, the crew, the food and drink, and most of all the scenery! This is a great experience and worth the price.

Great Trip and Great Staff! It was a bit rough in areas that day but the Captain handled the boat beautifully and we anchored in calm water for the snorkeling portion of the trip which was incredible! Aside from fish we saw turtles and spinner dolphins as well as the beautiful Na Pali coast. The food and drinks were also well done and the crew was always there to help.

I can’t say enough good things about out this tour! I’ve been on a few of these but this was hands down the best!! The boat is in perfect condition, the crew was above and beyond helpful and friendly, and the captain gave us a fantastic ride along with great info about the coastline and its significance in Hawaiian culture! We saw turtles, flying fish, dolphins, and had two whale sightings! The captain and crew shared interesting facts about the animals as we encountered them which made it all that much more special. The ride up the coast was rough which is not uncommon, so this tour isn’t for people who get super motion sick. I rode the waves standing in the front like an amusement ride! They fed us a yummy breakfast, lunch, and as much beverage as we wanted, including the yummiest Mai Tai’s! Highly recommend!!

What an amazing day - we didn't want it to end! The boat was beautiful, the staff were so friendly and accommodating, and the scenery was amazing - from the beautiful NaPali coast, to the pod of dolphins that chased our boat, to the sea turtles that made cameos during our snorkeling stop, to the mama and baby humpback whales that were still hanging out along the coast in April - this tour BEAT our expectations by miles. We were so sad that our day had to come to an end. Our party ranged in age from 10 to 75 years old and we all agree it was a highlight of our trip!
