This was one of the best adventures of my life! After having been on other tours of the Napali Coast, I rate this one as the best. Captain J. brought us up close enough to see the Coast with its spectacular cliffs, waterfalls, caves, and beaches, yet knew when to provide the right distance to allow us to fully appreciate this magnificent natural wonder from afar. He and his crew, Cannon, were quite accommodating in slowing down or stopping for photo opportunities and both were there for us to even take our pictures. Having grown up in Kauai, Captain J. was quite knowledgeable and shared the history and stories along each part of the Coast, which enhanced the overall trip. This unforgettable experience was brought to an even higher level when Captain J. and Cannon expertly navigated in and out of caves and waterfalls. He provided the right spot and timing for an extraordinary snorkeling experience, as well as frequently directing our attention to the flipping and diving antics of dolphins while we remained at a safe and legal distance. The raft itself was spacious and provided a smooth ride and having a bathroom available on a raft was a real luxury.
Captain J's love of people and navigating the sea, as well as his knowledge of the history and legends of the Napali Coast and his expert piloting of the raft made for an unforgettable adventure and up-close view of the wonders of nature. It was a fabulous experience worth every penny! I highly recommend this trip to all visitors and natives of Kauai.

Thank you for this thoughtful and informative reflection. You said everything any operator wants to hear. Cant thank you enough for taking the time to help others understand our vessel and our tour so completely. We love to share our unique vessel and perspective of the Na Pali as well as Niihau and our shorter Marine life tours. You really did cover the bases well. Thank you so much. Wish I knew who this was so I could have gone to diner with you after the trip.
