Enjoy appetizers, craft beer, wine, and Koloa Rum Mai-Tais aboard our sleek and spacious sailing catamaran, Leila. Your captain will share legends and stories of this sacred and historical coast as we bask in the glory of her 4000’ cliffs, emerald valleys, sparkling waterfalls, secluded beaches, and majestic wildlife including Hawaiian spinner dolphins and humpback whales (seasonally, December- April). We’ll serve you a nourishing and delicious meal in the most stunning setting Kauai has to offer. Sailing across the ocean by the power of the wind will ignite your senses and make you feel alive! We’ll raise a toast as the sun falls below the horizon and the afterglow casts warm hues upon the island. Treat your loved ones to the very best on this adventurous-yet-relaxing golden-hour excursion where photo opportunities abound, and treasured memories are made.

Breathtaking and so much fun

Probably the best day here on Kauai. We had originally booked the snorkel tour but due to the hurricane they cancelled that. When I called, they were so accommodating and suggested the sunset cruise the same day. Honestly so much fun, crew was amazing, food delicious and I can’t say enough! And the playlist made by the captain himself was perfect. Thank u for being the highlight of our vacation. Would highly recommend. Thank u guys!

Buyer beware

The staff is amazing!!!! However, if the captain says its a “bit choppy” I recommend canceling. We endured hours of swells and a dozen passengers sick over the back of the boat- others holding buckets. It was the roughest boat experience I have EVER had. The poor staff were so busy dumping buckets of throw up over the side and hosing down the boat there wasn’t time to breathe. They should have canceled the entire trip. Spent a lot of money to watch half the boat throwing up.

Beautiful but bouncy.

Crew was amazing, food was tasty. We saw dolphins and beautiful cliffsides. It is a very long tour and even I was a little seasick from being bounced around for 4 hours by the end.

Must see experience in Kauai!

I booked this trip early, since it was a must see for us. We visited Kauai aboard the Pride of America cruise. Once I learned the ship no longer sailed past the Na Pali Coast, I looked to book our own excursion. I checked out several different tour options and chose Holo-Holo. I liked the time slot available, and that the boat was made in Kauai. I am so glad we did not book one of the Zodiac trips, which are fun, and just did one in Kona the day before. We appreciated being in a boat more equipped to handle what the seas may deliver on this trip. I booked the sunset cruise, so there is no snorkeling for this time slot. You are aboard for 5 hrs, which sounds like a lot, but the time went by so fast, it did not feel like it. I had read that the trip can get a little rough at times, but we had mostly calm seas. The initial leg out to the Na Pali Coast was the roughest part of the trip, with some white caps present. We sat up front, so expect to get wet if you choose to sit up there. It is a blast and we all laughed so hard when a wave came and just drenched us! Other people sat in the back and did not get a hint of water on them, so to each their own on that. There were a few people who appeared seasick and the crew took good care of them, so if f you are prone to this, take some Dramamine before boarding. Dinner was served on the leg back. Holo-Holo was able to hoist the sails for part of the ride back, which was beautiful. The crew was great and attended to everyone very well. They knew a lot about the history of the area, so try to lend an ear to hear what they are saying and ask questions! The Na Pali Coast is a must see if you go to Kauai. Your eyes just drink in the majesty of this coast. No picture fully captures just how magnificent it is. Seeing it from the water gives such a dramatic perspective; plus, since you are on a catamaran, you have the luxury of enjoying scenery longer. We were treated to an amazing sunset to top off this terrific trip. Holo-Holo offers a champagne toast to top it off. When planning your trip to Hawaii, there is so much to see, and it’s hard to narrow down how you want to spend your time. Booking this trip was definitely worth it. I highly recommended Holo-Holo when visiting on Kauai! It is best for anyone that loves seeing the wonder of nature.

Operator response

We are so glad to have had you aboard and are absolutely beaming reading how much you enjoyed your Sunset Dinner Tour! Thank you so much for joining us and for taking the time to share your experience. Nāpali is truly a magical place, and we couldn’t have said it better ourselves! We hope to see you again soon for another adventure. Mahalo & Aloha!

Beautiful. Fun (for the seasickness prepared). Wet. The staff was extremely attentive.

We were out on the water from maybe 2:30 until after the sun went down at around 8:00. We got pretty wet staying out on top to avoid getting seasick down below. We were glad the boat was at about half-capacity, so we had room to move around. The scenery was spectacular, the staff attentive, but the ride was pretty rocky for most of the trip (which the captain said was pretty typical). Didn't really have the appetite for dinner, so we took it with us. Several people were seasick. Glad we avoided it.

Operator response

We appreciate your kind words and understanding about the rocky conditions, and love hearing how much you enjoyed your time with the captain and crew. There's nothing quite like the views along the Nāpali Coast, and we love knowing how much you enjoyed it! Mahalo and Aloha

Epic views, great service, great value!

Drew, Captain K, Shania and Christina were a fantastic team. They all went out of their way to be friendly helpful and service all the guests. I am especially appreciative of Drew who was captain for most of the trip. We had favorable weather conditions and calm oceans and so we made good time. He brought us not only to Kalalau, but almost to Hanakapi Beach! I have taken three tours with Holo Holo and this was by far the best. We even got to see into the caves up close. And Drew's narration was so informative giving us details along the way to help us understand the coastline and a bit of the history. The drinks, appetizers, and dinner were tasty and well presented. I give this six out of five stars!

Operator response

This is everything that we love to hear! We are so glad to have had you aboard and couldn't be happier knowing how much you enjoyed your tour and Captain Drew! Until we meet again... Mahalo and Aloha
