The Napali Coast tours here are consistently praised as trip highlights, with captains like Caleb, Rich, Brayden, and crew members like Kawai and Jackson earning repeated shoutouts for their skill, local knowledge, and easygoing personalities. The guides weave in Hawaiian history and culture throughout the journey, making it feel like more than just a scenic ride. Food and drinks are included, and snorkeling stops give guests a chance to encounter sea turtles and dolphins up close. The zodiac-style boats put you right at water level, which delivers an exciting, immersive experience through sea caves and along dramatic coastlines. A few guests note that the ocean conditions can be rough, so those prone to motion sickness should come prepared. That said, multiple reviewers specifically praised how skillfully the captains handled swells, turning what could feel daunting into part of the adventure.
We met one of Hanalei Charters surf instructors, Kai, in the water at Hanalei Bay. He gave my nephew some pointers on surfing and couldn’t have been a nicer guy. He also gave some local recommendations while we were in the area. Kai is a great representative of the company and we will absolutely work with them the next time we are on island, solely because of the great interaction with him.
