Nothing to tell

We arrived to be told the cruise was cancelled due to mechanical problems, My money was promptly refunded. Could have been told ahead of time (6:45 AM was the time to show up) instead of waiting for us to arrive, leave B&B having everything packed and ready to leave at the airport at the end of the end of the cruise. Instead, we were homeless until 9:30 that night when we had to catch our flight. This was the big event of the trip. 5 of us were very disappointed!

Beautiful excursion along Napali Coast

Beautiful excursion on Napali coast! Greg and his crew were highly attentive! Plenty of space on the boat to make it feel like a personal experience. So glad we did this! Also-Greg, excellent playlist!

Epic Adventure!

Captain Evan and crew - Emee, Elias, Julian, and Jake made our trip so much fun! They did a great job ensuring we were safe and cared for. Captain Evan was clear in his communication and was a pro at navigating the catamaran. I highly recommend this team for anyone planning their next adventure in Kauai. 🤙🏝️

Great times. Would recommend.

Our two teenagers had a blast. Captain Kauai and his crew were fantastic. It's a great way to see the Napali Coastline.

Very rough experience and irresponsible crew

I am going to ask for at least a partial refund for a very upsetting experience and lack of safety response by the staff. There were other boat companies that were traveling along side of us, and when it was time to stop for the snorkeling, weather to companies, pulled up closer to the shore and allowed several people to get off and Snorkel with no problem. They stayed out almost an hour with no problems. However, our Captain pulled out further away and it was clear from the moment that we stopped that there were several jellyfish out and the captain did not say anything and allowed people to get out and some got stung. We got out of the water immediately and so did others . Could have chosen to closer to the shore just like the other companies who had no problems with jellyfish in their location. All it would take was five minutes to move the boat to a safer location. So we were not able to snorkel. Also we have been on other sea tours and never was there so many people vomiting from the pour driving off the Captain going very fast and taking the waves very roughly. Also, they advertise that they have the largest boat in the industry, but they don’t even use the large boat which would have been much more stable. They should advertise that they may be using a smaller boat, but they don’t do that until you arrive there and it’s too late to cancel.. I would like to ask for a refund for the three of us , at least 50% off, please.

You have to experience “The Lucky Lady”!!

We had the best time on the Lucky Lady! The views were unreal, snorkeling was so awesome and the staff on board was amazing! They were so attentive and kind, making sure you always had what you need. This was the best way to see the Nā Pali Coast… we saw dolphins, sea turtles and so many fish! Would highly recommend! Side note: if you are prone to motion sickness, definitely take something or use a patch to prevent it!

Operator response

Thank you Lisa - the NāPali really is special and via boat is amazing ! Good advise regarding taking a preventative - Mahalo

Fun experience. The...

Fun experience. The captain and crew were friendly and made sure that everyone was well cared for. Offered plenty of food and drinks, looked after the guests who felt sea sick, offered all of the needed supplies to make snorkeling a fun experience. The water/waves were very agreeable on the day of our trip, better than usual according to the captain. I took my 4 year old son and he had a good time.

Operator response

Thank you for joining us. Glad to hear your 4 year old also had a good time, Mahalo!

Great crew and boat trip.

What a great trip and crew. From the moment we stepped on the boat they were all there to take care of us. We saw some incredible view of the Na Pali coast, even got under a waterfall thanks to the fantastic boat cabin. Loved hearing about the history about everything we saw.

Operator response

Thank you very much for the kind review Nancy!

Beautiful views and fun snorkeling adventure.

We enjoyed the many gorgeous views on our Napali adventure. Evan, our captain, was informative, friendly, and showed us many notable views off the Napali coast. We got to see several types of dolphins and flying fish on our way up. The day was clear with beautiful weather, but even so, the waves tend to be quite choppy so those who are prone to motion sickness should beware and be prepared! Snorkeling was fun and we got to see many tropical brightly colored fish. Shout out to the crew, Avery, Josh/Chuck, and Lauren who spent the day making sure everyone was taken care of!

Operator response

Sounds you got very lucky with lovely weather and a great Captain and Crew!
