The crew was very nice and attentive. The Captain said he wasn't sure if we could make it to the Na Pali coast due to potential rough seas but he gave it a good try. Found a school of dolphins and they circled around and stopped for a good long look at them. The crew also pointed out a couple of Whales and made a good attempt to get close.
Only advice take Dramamine as you are out for quite a few hours.

My husband and I did this tour as part of our honeymoon in Kauai, and it was a blast! We had a rental car and there is ample parking at the pier, and then there was a short orientation and introduction from the crew and away we went! We were a little nervous when we saw the amount of people coming on the tour, but the boat never felt over-crowded. We went snorkeling right away the captain took us to a reef she knew would have a lot of sea life, and she was right! As soon as we got into the water we saw 3 giant sea turtles! Amazing! We had a great time snorkeling, and the crew was out in the water with us to make sure we were all safe and happy. Back on the boat they served a continental breakfast which was actually really good and satisfying. The views were absolutely incredible and you could get as adventurous/wet laying on the trampoline at the front of the boat, sitting with your legs dangling over the side or tame/dry sitting in the cabin as you felt comfortable. We saw Jurassic Park Valley where some scenes were shot and the captain also guided us to an area where she knew we would see spinner dolphins. It was so amazing to be that close to dolphins in the wild - so beautiful! The crew helped us to take pictures with the scenery, and then put up the sails. They were also our awesome bartenders, bringing us wine and beer throughout the trip. The lunch was also surprisingly good! It is a deli style lunch but that phrase doesn't really do it justice with breads and cookies from local bakeries and a lot of great, fresh produce. It was very satisfying after all of the swimming and adventuring we had done! This tour was absolutely amazing, and an incredible bargain, especially for Hawaii! We saw amazing landscapes, exciting sea life, had some wine, beer and great food all with an awesome crew who really knew their stuff. I will absolutely be referring people here whenever they go to Kauai!

Fabulous trip! The crew was amazing and took excellent care of all of us. Cheers to Holo Holo Charters. Very interactive with lots of stories. Captain Kelly was the best. Snorkeling was great and we even swam with a turtle. The sail up Napali coast was beautiful and again the crew was very informative. This was the highlight of our trip. Highly recommend it.
