What To Expect

Hanalei Bay

Check in for the tour at the Tahiti Nui restaurant in Hanalei in the early afternoon, and dry transfer to the cruising raft waiting in Hanalei Bay via a luxury dinghy. The inflatable-hull raft is ideal for getting close to the coastline to explore a network of sea caves and lava tubes (weather permitting). Stow any gear you have, though you’ll want to keep a camera handy to capture the spectacular coastline illuminated by the golden afternoon light.

Na Pali Coast

Take a seat and hang on for a high-speed ride out of the bay and around the North Shore to where the rugged, inaccessible Na Pali Coast begins. Marvel at the towering sea cliffs as they come into view, jutting straight up from the water and punctuated by lush green valleys, waterfalls, and remote beaches. If conditions are right, get an up-close perspective on the landscape as the raft darts in an out of mythical sea caves and lava tubes. Learn about the history of the legendary coastline as your captain and crew share tales of the ancient Hawaiians who once lived and trained for battle among its valleys. Keep your energy up with a refreshing snack of soft drinks, tropical juices, chips, and locally made Kauai Kookies, and be sure to keep an eye out for native wildlife like spinner dolphins, sea turtles, and migrating whales. The 3-hour adventure concludes back at the departure point in Hanalei Bay. Please note: This tour does not include snorkeling.

Had a great day! Went into caves, under a waterfall and experienced amazing views of the Napali Coast. They were very knowledgeable and very friendly. Captain Spencer is awesome and has incredible control of the boat. Such a fun day!

This experience was amazing! Everyone was so friendly and knowledgeable about the area and history. We did the afternoon sail so we did not snorkle but they did give everyone an opportunity to get out of the boat and swim if you wanted to. They had snacks and drinks available. It is not shaded so wear sunscreen! Sit in the front if you do not get seasick, I grew up riding on speed boats so I loved all the waves! This tour was beautiful and so many wonderful sights to see! We went in a couple caves as well and saw only a couple sea turtles. Definitely worth the trip!

Experiencing the Napali Coast was very high on our bucket list and we were really glad to have picked Holo Holo Charters for the trip. The ship was spacious and well maintained, the crew friendly and had great storys to share along our tour. We were a bit worried at first to get seasick, but none of us (3 kids 12, 14, 16 yrs and 2 adults) had any problems. The crew had medicine on board just in case. The afternoon views were spectacular, we got some epic pics and loved every second on the boat. Will gladly come back!

We are so happy to be a part of memories you'll be looking back on for years to come! Thank you for choosing us here at Holo Holo Charters and for letting us know what a great time you had! We do suggest taking medication for motion sickness before boarding, because we do not have any on-board. Until we meet again... Mahalo and Aloha
