Ni'ihau og Na Pali Coast Snorkel Boat Tour
Beskrivelse
Gå stort eller gå hjem på en af de mest ambitiøse ture Kauai har at tilbyde - et 90 km hav eventyr op Napali kysten og tværs Kaulakahi kanal til Lehua krater og den "forbudte ø" Ni'ihau. Vi vil opleve Kauai's hellige og betagende nordvestkyst og derefter hovedet offshore ind i de dybere og mere afsides farvande i Lehua og Ni'ihau, hvor der er overlegne muligheder for at se dyreliv og snorkling i verdensklasse. Snorkeludstyr og instruktion er tilvejebragt, og vores slanke og komfortable Kauai-bygget 65' power katamaran er fartøjet til at tage dig og dine kære der og tilbage sikkert og i stil. Morgenmad, frokost og drikkevarer (alkoholholdige og ikke-alkoholholdige) er inkluderet i denne smukke, spændende, informative og værdifulde 7-timers havoplevelse, der sandsynligvis bliver højdepunktet for dit besøg i Kauai.
Turmuligheder
Rejseplan
1. Betagende sightseeing – Med sine 4.000' klipper, brusende vandfald, smaragdgrønne dale og afsondrede strande er Napali-kysten et absolut must-do på enhver Kauai-ferie. Og mens de fleste ture stopper der, fortsætter dette eventyr til Lehua Crater (et Hawaii State Wildlife Sanctuary) og den mystiske Ni'ihau Island.
2. Fremragende snorkling og dyrelivsvisning - Snorkelforholdene omkring Lehua-krateret og Niihau er nogle af de klareste og mest produktive i hele Hawaii. Når vi går offshore til Lehua og Niihau, øger vi vores chancer for at se mere undvigende havarter såsom grindehvaler og ru-tandede delfiner foruden spinnerdelfiner, grønne havskildpadder og pukkelhvaler (sæsonbestemt, december-april), der frekventerer farvandene af Kauai.
Tilfredsstillende mad- og drikkevareservice - De måltider, vi serverer, er farverige, lækre og tilberedt frisk hver morgen med hele ingredienser. I drikkevareafdelingen vil du blive tilbudt vand, kaffe, juice, sodavand og et kreativt udvalg af håndværksøl, vin og hårde selters.
Få en fornemmelse af kulturhistorien - Kauai's Napali-kyst er ubeboet i dag, men var engang hjemsted for tusindvis af mennesker, og den dag i dag bor der en privat koloni af hawaiianske folk på Niihau! Vi deler historien, legenderne og historierne om disse lande og deres folk, hvilket efterlader dig med en dybere forståelse og påskønnelse af Kauai- og Ni'ihau-øerne.
Gæstfrihed med Aloha – Dine venlige besætningsmedlemmer vil være ved din side hele dagen lang og sørge for, at du er komfortabel, hydreret, velnæret, din snorkelmaske passer rigtigt, din drink er fyldt op, og at du har en fantastisk tid.
En sikker og original oplevelse – Under hensyntagen til dagens vejr- og havforhold vil din erfarne kaptajn bruge deres skøn til at vise dig så meget som muligt i den tid, vi har, mens du altid prioriterer din komfort og sikkerhed. Specifikke stop og snorkelsteder vil variere, og vi vil altid gøre vores bedste for at imponere. Stænk kan ske - medbring en let jakke!

Beautiful boat ride. Boat was in great condition, felt very comfortable and not overcrowded. Plenty of room to move about. Staff were wonderful. Music on boat was good. Food and drinks were great. Options for vegetarians. Really a great vibe and fun day. Best day in Kauai.
Your glowing review has us beaming, Mahalo for sharing it! We’re so glad you enjoyed your time on the water and truly appreciate you spending part of your visit with us. We hope to welcome you back again soon, maybe even aboard our newest vessel, Holo Nui, launching later this year!
Great day out with an experienced, professional and friendly crew who accommodated all your tour needs. Seas are open water but you get to snorkel areas most will never see. The roller coaster swell was actually fun. Like the crew tells you, take motion sickness medication BEFORE, don’t wait, it’s too late. Our three teens didn’t fair too well, but you can only tell them so many times to look at the horizon, drink water and stay cool…. Highly recommended.
Thank you so much for joining us and saying yes to adventure! We are glad to have had you aboard and appreciate your honest review! Mahalo and Aloha
We did this tour about 7 years ago and loved it so much that we had to do it again.
Mahalo Nui! We appreciate your kind words and are so glad you had a great experience again! We would love to have you back to enjoy our new vessel, Holo Nui, which will be launching later this year! Mahalo and Aloha
Captain Nate and crew gave us a once in a lifetime experience. Get a good night's sleep the night before because the Ni'ihau snorkel leaves out early and 7 hours is a long day! We had a great time snorkeling, then enjoyed the cruise along the Na Pali coast. The crew took the time to take some photos for us and we stood at the bow and enjoyed the ride for most of the cruise back to the harbor. The food and snacks included were filling and perfectly suited for this activity.
Thank you! Our crew loves ensuring everyone has a fantastic time. We're glad you enjoyed the incredible views and food. We appreciate the recommendation! Mahalo and Aloha
This was truly the highlight of our trip to Kauai, our 16th trip to Kauai. We had a group of 10 with a mix of family and friends and everyone, from first-time snorkelers to experienced ones, had an incredible time. We lucked out with perfect weather and unbelievably calm ocean conditions. Snorkeling between Lehua Crater and the “Forbidden Island” of Niihau was unforgettable. The water was the most amazing shade of blue, visibility was easily 75–100 feet, and swimming above the shelf where it drops hundreds of feet into the deep blue was absolutely breathtaking. After snorkeling, we cruised around Lehua Crater for incredible photo opportunities before heading to the Na Pali Coast. Seeing those cliffs up close from the water is something we’ll never forget. What really made this trip exceptional, though, was the crew. With only two crew members plus Captain Jess taking care of nearly 40 passengers, they somehow made everyone feel welcome and taken care of. They provided two great meals, helped everyone get fitted with snorkeling gear, collected everything afterward, answered questions, shared great conversation, and did it all with smiles while keeping everyone safe. The scenery was world-class, but the professionalism, friendliness, and hard work of Captain Jess and the crew made this a true 5-star experience. I would recommend this trip to anyone visiting Kauai without hesitation.
We are so grateful for your incredible review! Our team is thrilled to hear that you had an amazing experience on our tour. Thank you for choosing Holoholo Charters and for recommending us. We hope to welcome you back soon for another unforgettable adventure! Mahalo and Aloha
Right from the start, my boyfriend and I were treated with great hospitality by the front desk ladies. It was shortly followed by a well-informed and playful safety briefing done by Captain Nate. The breakfast served was stellar with a variety of very fresh fruit, an amazing coconut pastry, tasty scrambled eggs with veggies, & refreshments of a “morning soda,” tea, and coffee. The sandwich and pasta salad hit the spot for lunch too. Crew Member Olivia never allowed me to take any of my dirty dishes to the sink and nor did she let anyone else’s dirty dishes get taken to the sink by anyone but herself or by Crew Member Lexi! Once making it to Lehua Channel, Crew Member Kalama ensured our ocean safety by anchoring the boat to the morey and being our personal lifeguard in the water with us the entire duration of our snorkeling experience. Crew Member Nate did an outstanding job not just by serving all of our food and making all of the guests smile and laugh but also ensuring everyone was feeling okay amidst the rocking of the boat. While we adventured Na Pali Coast, Captain Nate gave a brief history of the sacred cliffs and also shared a couple mo’olelo which a was a very nice and necessary touch for our tour, right on! Last but not least, the cookies are a hit. Thank you, Holoholo and thank you to the entire crew for such an amazing and unforgettable experience!! 🫶🏻
Mahalo for this incredible review! We are absolutely thrilled that you and your boyfriend had an unforgettable time exploring the Nāpali Coast with us. Captain Nate, Olivia, Lexi, Kalama, and the front desk team will be so happy to hear your shoutouts. From the history and mo’olelo to keeping everyone safe, fed, and smiling (and ensuring you didn't lift a finger with those dishes!), our crew loves what they do. And we agree, you can't skip the cookies! Thank you for choosing Holoholo Charters. We hope to welcome you both back on board soon! A hui hou! Mahalo and Aloha
Holoholo Charters was absolutely amazing. They made the experience to Niihau and around the na Pali cost unforgettable! They staff is so warm & accommodating as well as incredibly knowledgeable! I've lived in Hawaii 6 years and learned so much I've never known before being on their boat. The snorkel experience was fantastic, we saw a monk seal and so many dolphins on the way. Gorgeous clear water with so many beautiful fish. Cannot say enough good things about this company.
We are beaming reading over your review! Thank you so much for choosing to join us here at Holoholo Charters and for sharing your awesome review! We are elated to hear how much you enjoyed your time with us from beginning to end and hope to see you out on the water again soon! Mahalo and Aloha
One of my favorite experiences in Kauai. The trip was fun and the snorkeling around the crater was beyond description.
We are absolutely beaming reading your review! Mahalo Nui Loa for taking the time to share your experience with us. We're especially excited to share that we have a brand-new vessel currently being built, and we would love to welcome you back when our newest catamaran, Holo Nui, launches later this year! We can't wait to share another adventure with you in the future. Mahalo and Aloha!
Amazing time! The captain provided history/information about the areas we stopped at. He made the mandatory briefings entertaining. The crew was very accommodating and friendly. The check-in process was smooth. The breakfast was great. The lunch was okay (Costco lunchmeat/pasta salad). The homemade coconut cookie was delicious! Open bar after snorkeling and plenty of nonalcoholic drinks too! The snorkeling was amazing! We had about an hour in the water, and were able to see many fish and even a monk seal! The spinner dolphins were putting on a show for us!! The captain said the weather couldn't be any better! Highly recommend this company and tour!
Thank you for the wonderful review! We're thrilled you enjoyed the snorkeling, wildlife sightings, and beautiful conditions on the water. We'll be sure to share your kind words with our captain and crew. Seeing spinner dolphins and a monk seal is always special! Mahalo for joining us and for your recommendation. Mahalo and Aloha
Good way to see the other part of the island. Second time doing this exact tour. Captain Nate & crew were wonderful. You do encounter waves so be prepared.
