Itinerary
Your private charter begins with a warm meet and greet followed by a brief safety orientation before boarding our state of the art 35 foot power catamarans, purpose built for the Na Pali Coast. Fast, stable, and completely open air, these boats deliver an exciting yet smooth ride while bringing your group closer to sea caves, cliffs, and waterfalls than larger vessels can.
As we cruise toward the coast, we share stories about nearby Niʻihau while keeping watch for marine life, most commonly Hawaiian spinner dolphins, sea turtles, and seasonal whales.
Along the Na Pali Coast, towering emerald cliffs, lush valleys, hidden beaches, sea caves, and waterfalls unfold around you in spectacular fashion. With the boat reserved exclusively for your group, enjoy time to swim or snorkel along the coast while savoring fresh fruit, light snacks, and cold beverages before cruising back to the harbor after an unforgettable private Na Pali Coast adventure.
