We had a great time. A bit cloudy and windy, but overall fantastic. Perhaps we could have stayed out a bit longer because the sun was setting as we were coming back into the dock. And the sun set behind the mountains nearby, so we missed seeing the sunset over the water like we hoped. Though we did see some sea turtles.
It was excellent for our first time. We saw sea turtles, flying fishes, and dolphins. The crew members were excellent, Sophia, Carlos, and Cameron. Cameron was great and make sure everyone’s okay and safe. He also answers any questions and concerns that everyone has. Cameron was also knowledgeable. We didn’t feel the ride was rush.
Excellent 90mims Saturday afternoon with three excellent crew who looked after us incredibly Would highly recommend this trip good crew great music and of course mai Thai on tap
Awesome crew. Boat is clean and beautiful. Loved it!
Pono des and claire were all guests could wish for, very friendly, informative and knew how to treat the guests, the personal drinks service was awesome . We enjoyed it so much we have booked again for the Friday fireworks cruise :)
Our Waikiki boat ride was disappointing due to the lack of communication from the crew. There were no safety instructions, no explanation about life jackets, and it was unclear who was in charge. It also appeared that some crew members were drinking while working, which was concerning. When we returned to shore, no one warned passengers that those seated in the back would get completely soaked. A simple announcement telling anyone who didn't want to get wet to move to the front would have made a big difference. The scenery was beautiful, but the poor communication and lack of professionalism took away from the experience.
What a beautiful way to spend the afternoon!
This was the 2nd time we went on this catamaran. They make a mean Shirley temple. Our girls drank 4-5 each. Everyone was so friendly and we had a blast. I definitely recommend and next time we come, we will be back.
We loved our sail! The crew was professional and courteous. Cameron did a great job of checking in on all of the passengers to be sure we were doing well! The captain obviously loves his job which makes it fun for everyone!!
I went on an excursion with my sister-in-law and our 3 teens, and everyone absolutely loved it! The boat itself is beautiful! It's clean and well organized for a wonderful experience. Our hosts were fun and helpful at every turn, and of course, the location is gorgeous, and the waves were a blast!! I highly recommend this experience to anyone! Just don't forget your sunscreen. We were a little burnt when we got back, but it was SO worth it! It was an unforgettable experience!
