Kauai : Na Pali Coast Power Catamaran

Know that this crew is very friendly and mindful your needs or concerns. They talk to you not like a stranger but as a friend. When we come back again we would do this again.

This was worth every penny. The tour itself was amazing. Very informative, not too big and we got to see so much. We saw tons of dolphins in one particular spot. Then while snorkeling we got to see a sea turtle and other beautiful fish. The boat was clean and comfortable. The weather cooperated so we were able to enter a few of the caves. Out captains, “the twins’ were amazing. Also checking to make sure everyone was good, safe and happy. The ride was great, they played great music and were fun! Our whole family enjoyed the morning seeing the incredible sights of the Na Pali coast!

Had the absolute best time with Na Pali Experience! The staff were extremely kind, informative about local culture and wildlife and also attentive to all the passengers needs. When my little one got a bit sea sick Chaz was the best at taking care of her and making sure we still had the most amazing time EVER! Truly a beautiful place to see and a life experience I will never forget. Thank you guys!!!!

One of the greatest days we’ve ever had on the water — book Nā Pali Experience with absolute confidence. If you’re trying to decide which company to book for a Nā Pali Coast boat tour, stop looking and book Nā Pali Experience. I would choose them over one of the larger operators any day. Captain Chellen and Casey were absolutely phenomenal. From the moment we met them, they were warm, welcoming, funny, and incredibly personal. You immediately felt like you were heading out on the water with people who genuinely love what they do and want you to experience this extraordinary place the way they do. And they are seriously skilled. Their seamanship was incredible, especially taking us into the sea caves along the Nā Pali Coast. They combined that expertise with a deep knowledge of the history, geography, and culture of the area and a real passion for sharing it. It never felt like a scripted tour—it felt like experiencing Kauai with people who know and love it. The day itself was almost impossible to top. We explored spectacular sea caves, stopped for an amazing snorkel where we swam with sea turtles, got a phenomenal photo opportunity along the coast, and Captain Chellen and Casey spotted pods of spinner dolphins and made sure we had the chance to see and experience them up close. Every part of the trip felt special rather than rushed. What impressed us even more was that we went out the day after Cyclone Lala passed through Hawaii. Nā Pali Experience stayed in close contact with us beforehand, kept us updated as conditions evolved, and clearly put safety and conditions first. Somehow, just a day after the storm, they managed to give us one of the greatest days we’ve ever spent on the water. Nā Pali Experience is a smaller operation than some of the big tour companies, and to us, that is exactly why you should book them. The personal attention, care, flexibility, knowledge, and passion showed throughout the entire experience. The Nā Pali Coast is extraordinary on its own, but Captain Chellen and Casey made experiencing it unforgettable. We would book with them again without hesitation and recommend them to anyone visiting Kauai. Five stars doesn't feel like enough.

We had a great experience. Our 2 captains were so sweet and knowledgable and told us so much. We got to see lots of dolphins, sea turtle and colorful fish, we went into caves and saw the mountains of the island from the boat.

We had “the boys” Captain Dom and Crew Chaz. It was a lot of fun, great info, excellent seamanship, just good dudes. Absolutely worth it to see part of the island that is very hard to see on your own and even if you hike it the view from off the coast just really puts it into scale.

Awesome experience we had the twin sisters and they are fantastic and have awesome music. This was an event we will never forget. We liked the morning times as it was bumpier coming back. Do it! Have fun!

Ian and crew were great, positive and took the time to speak with each guest. We had phenomenal weather and were able to get into the sea caves and see dolphins late in the afternoon. I have done the larger boat tour with another operator but wanted to get closer to the sea caves and the experience did not disappoint!

Great trip absolutely, breathtaking scenery and was a top notch trip. Captain Mano and first mate Brian were an excellent crew that were fun, safe and knowledgeable. Mahalo, we will be back!

We had a great experience with Na Pali Experience. Jackson and Colleen were both amazing as captain and crew. They shared great knowledge of the history of the island. It was worth every penny. There were a small number of other small groups with us and they made sure we were all well attended to. The boat tour itself was amazing but being able to snorkel and see fish and turtles was the icing on the cake. We did the early am tour which was perfect bc we got to see a lot of dolphins and also we’re back before the winds really picked up. Four and a half hours was the perfect length to see the coast and get some snorkeling in.
