We went out on Friday night to see the fireworks show. The ride was great, as was the sunset view. The fireworks were great, I just wish they had been a little longer. There was no down side to this activity. I highly recommend it.

We went on the sunset cruise. Even though the sky overcast and the waters were choppy for part of the trip, we still had an amazing time!
Food was average but yummy, served buffet style: chicken wraps, pasta salad, spring rolls, cookies.
Great, friendly, helpful crew. Good middle-ground between a fancy dinner cruise and simple booze cruise. This is the only catamaran cruise I found that actually offers food...and for about the same price as the others that only offer alcohol.
Would definitely recommend!

excellent sunset sail. beyond expectations with staff and food. wonderful!

this was so lovely and we got to see a mother and calf whale...off season too...highly recommend. Staff was excellent...

Jon and his crew are hilarious and wonderful.
It's a good short trip around the bay that I highly recommend. Great for first times and repeat visitors. Excellent for kids!!!!

This cruise was short of wind and so no sails - on fault of the crew of course but it was disappointing. The crew was very good. The sun set was average. I was impressed with the boat itself. Nonetheless, we had a great time and would recommend it.

It was a fantastic experience. The staff was really nice and loved "high tide". The captain was funny and let you drive the boat for a little bit. Food was really good and the bartender will be your new best friend.

The staff was great. The bartender was friendly and outgoing. The captain was awesome!! I've never been sailing before and my wife is an avid sailor and we both enjoyed it thoroughly. The ride was smooth. Coctails were available the whole time. We saw whales and a beautiful sunset.

We had SUCH a wonderful time aboard this catamaran! The Captain and crew were friendly and efficient, the food was good and plentiful, the drinks were well made, and the view was just stunning! The light dinner (turkey wraps, pasta, and spring rolls with a cookie for desert) was plentiful and good quality, very fresh. The 3 free drink coupons we had were just the right amount, we didn't even need to buy more drinks. The bartender did a good job, the mixed dinks were well made. There is even a plasma TV on board with a video of underwater shots of fish if you prefer to stay below deck! The Vessel is very well kept and clean, quite comfortable, and lots of viewing space! It was a wonderful way to finish out out week in Hawaii~! The fireworks were beautiful, but short, but the view couldn't have been more lovely!

This was an awesome activity!!! I went with my seven year old daughter and we both had a fabulous time. The sunset was AMAZING!! The crew and the captain were funny, polite, and extremely accomedating to the all guests on board. Before leaving the dock they went over safety tips, what food was being provide and where to find it, as well, the itenerary for the evenings trip. The fireworks from the Hilton were great! It was a nice way to wrap up the trip. I would highly recommend this trip to anyone who enjoys the open water and beautiful scenery.

We attended this activity on April 4th 2008, We were in Hawii untill April 8th 2008 and overall this was the best experience we had on Oahu. From the very start of this Sail ,the Captain and Crew where terrific very helpfull and just a complete joy to be around. As a Couple it is very hard to get pictures of the two people together, Not on this adventure we actually had the bartender offer to take our pictures together for us. The meal was delicious, Weather was perfect. When we come back to Hawii I will definantly be looking up this company and doing this again We could not have anticipated just how much fun we would have on this sail. If there was one thing I had to tell you to do in Oahu it would be to go on this Sunset Sail. Thank you so much for the Truly enjoyable and relaxing adventure we look forward to seeing you in the Future.

The crew members are some of the nicest people, they offer great friendly service to the passengers. They really do their best to please their customers. They offer some really good and original cocktails. Combined with the rocking motion of the catamaran, it is very much like riding a roller coaster! You will also get to see the beautiful sunset as well as the scenic landscapes that Hawai'i has to offer such as Diamondhead and city lights. The downside is that there are quite a bit of people so there is no privacy so i recommend this activity to families and friends. If you go at night time, don't forget to bring your jackets! Overall, its worth the price for something fun and relaxing!

I took my boyfriend to the afternoon whale watching sail with Makani Kai catamaran, and he had a fantastic time. The boat is beautiful, and the staff was so friendly and helpful. Even though we saw about two whales, we didn't mind that. It is a little rocky when you get out there, so for those who get boat sick easily, highly recommend to take them boat sickness bills prior to boarding the boat. Overall, this is such a fantastic ride, friendly crew, beautiful boat, and very relaxing! I will go again, probably take some friends this time!

This cruise was very relaxing and not at all over crowded. Would go again if I come back to Hawaii. They offer food, but if you are a vegetarian bank on only eating the pasta salad...I ate prior to sail.

Beautiful catamaran sunset cruise. We had whale sightings and a very nice sunset on sea. On Friday cruises you will be also to see the the fireworks, they start 8PM and we saw these just before returing to port. The food is not spectacular and could be improved a little in amount and variety. Mixed drinks are complimentary two per person and have more than enough alcohol content, stay with the beer, if you tend to get seasick!
Overall very enjoyable trip on a gorgeous boat!!!

It was quite the fun experience. From the Captain, to the first mate, to the bartender, they were all quite entertaining and they managed to make a relaxing time very much quite enjoyable. I went with my wife and we managed to get some beautiful pictures taken of this experience. The sun sets as you are sailing along the beautiful view of Waikiki and Diamond head.
I highly recommend this event for anyone who likes to just get away from it all for an evening. To top it all off, it also comes with a meal and two drinks so you have your evening off to a great start!

very nice boat, super staff. A little disappointed in the amount of sea life seen, which was very little.

My wife and I thought this cruise was the highlight of our trip to Oahu. This made my 3rd visit to the island (my wife's 1st) and we both were amazed with this activity. We were fortunate to see whales and a dolphin in the bay! The crew was outstanding. A true value for your money.

Was an excellent sail watching the lights of Honolulu and the fireworks - it's beautiful and I recommend it to any couple.
Only bad points were that they could provide a little more food for everyone and they missed us for pickup even though we were waiting at the designated spot well before the specified time but with many other tours departing that spot it can get hard to find people I guess.
Thanks guys!

The Captain & Crew of the Makani make the experience worthwhile. Wonderful, geniune people who truly love sharing the waters of Hawaii with you. A enjoyable morning surrounded by caring people. Highly recommend!
