All Reviews for Sunset Cruises

We had a fantastic tour and was even lucky enough to see lots of Dolphins along the way!! Being on the boat was a fun experience (not recommended if you get sea sick as the waves can get very big which makes for a bumpy but fun ride!) and the views of The Na Pali were amazing. Great crew too which made the trip more enjoyable - lots of interesting stories and very welcoming! The food was well prepared and had a good variety too - very tasty! We would highly recommend this tour!

We actually went on two sailing trips in Waikiki with two different companies and although both were very good this one was better. The space on the boat was very roomie and the drinks were awesome - we just stuck to the specialty drink, but they offered beer and wine also. The music was one of the best parts - old school - jawaiian - reggae and the vibe was extremely relaxing!!! As the drinks continued to pour our group got real friendly waving and cheering to passing boats ... we were obviously having much more fun. Writing this I miss it and would definitely recommend this to everyone! Bottoms up!

My mom has never gone sailing before, so what an absolute treat this was to bring her on a Sunset Sail with me and my daughter. We enjoyed every single minute of it. It wasn't one of those Booze Cruises where everyone is loud and getting their fill of free booze, this one I was able to relax with my daughter, enjoy a drink and watch the sunset.

The crew mates were so friendly, drinks were top notch, and the Spirit of Aloha is in great shape to handle the open sea!

I definitely recommend this to anyone looking for a good and simple sunset cocktail sail!

My trip to Oahu was for my honey moon. Everything was amazing! After 2 weeks of tours, hikes, shopping, snorkeling & beach fun in the sun-we needed something quiet & romantic. So our last night on this beautiful island was spent on board the Navatek Sunset Dinner Cruise. I chose this cruise line because I am easily motion sick & was told the build of this ship helped prevent a lot of the swaying you experience. It was great! Food was good-hawaiian pork, chicken teriyaki, potatoes & veggies(you want fancy-up grade),drinks were yum-decently priced. The crew was very nice! The most important part of the ship was the observation decks-awsome!! Plenty of room for everyone. I got some beautiful pics & wonderful memories! & the Friday night fire works made a fabulous ending to a perfect evening at the end of an amazing trip!! I would rebook this cruise on every trip I made!

Overall a great value and great time. Our 19 year old daughters were a bit bored. Can't blame them... They were jealous. The drinks were flowing and the captain and bartender did a great job keeping everyone topped off! Ship was beautiful. Nice circuit of the cruise around Waikiki and Diamond Head. Reccomend highly.

The dinner cruise was awesome. We really enjoyed the show, dinner, and staff. The all you can eat crab legs really hit the spot. Thanks for making our last night in Hawaii a memorable one.

I participated alone. It was more fun than I expected. I really felt like I was in Hawaii!

Once on board, the crew started talking about safety instructions. I couldn't understand anything they were saying... ^_^;

After a while, they served everyone cocktails in cups, and the crew came around multiple times for refills.

I also went to the restroom. No one seemed to have used it, so it was very clean that day. However, it was quite narrow! Since you have to use a vertical ladder, it might be difficult for those with mobility issues...

Next time I come to Hawaii, I will definitely ride this catamaran again! Wait for me! (laughs) THANK YOUーーー♪♪♪ヽ(^0^)ノ

一人で参加しました。
思っていた以上に、楽しかったです。
ハワイに来たんだーーー♪と実感してきました。

乗船すると、クルーの人が注意事項等を話し出します。
何を言っているかさっぱりわかりませんでした・・・^_^;

そして、しばらくすると、カップに入ったカクテルを全員に振る舞ってくれて、お代わりは、わざわざクルーの人が何度も、回ってきてくれました。

トイレも行って来ました。だれも、使用していなかったのか、その日は、とてもキレイでした。
ただ、とても狭い！　はしご階段（垂直）を使うので、足の悪い方は、大変かも・・・。

次回ハワイに来たら、またこのカタマランに乗りに行きます！待っててね！（笑）
　　　　　THANK YOUーーー♪♪♪ヽ(^0^)ノ

Christine was super cool at the check-in, she was so joyful and fired-up, loved this cruise! On-board crew was amazing and the drinks kept coming and coming. What a night - hahahaha! Yeah, WHAT A NIGHT! If you are in Waikiki you will WANT to take a sail out ... I went on a few and this one - by far - had the biggest drink cups!

OK, there was a pod of 200 dolphins swimming all around our boat - which was a trip, sunset views were awesome - you won't see a sunset like this one in Waikiki, believe me I went one TWO sailing trips in Waikiki last week, which were great too ... but on this trip we actually saw the sun slip away behind the ocean horizon. The crew was so friendly and chill and accommodating ... no pressure ... no trying to shamelessly sell you stuff, actually, Captain Patrick shared all the free stuff to do along the coast, we saw the Black Pearl from Pirates of the Caribbean and the new Disney hotel too. The snorkeling was great! The food was simple and healthy and tasty! Yum! I understand that this is a newer tour so we only had about 18 people on a 49 capacity boat .... so lots of room to stretch out and get some tanning done. Thank you all at the Ocean Joy for such an amazing experience! We will be back the Kai oli oli again!!

My friend decided to do this cruise and so we went along. We all had an incredible time! While we were sailing out in the deep blue ocean enjoying our tasty drinks and listening to the tunes, it just automatically becomes the perfect combination to get everyone in a mood to socialize, move around and even dance on-board! The best part about the whole cruise was the gorgeous sunset (besides the OPEN bar).

I would definitely recommend this to my friends and to everyone I know!! Thank you so much for a wonderful time!

Sailing + Drinks + Friends = GOOD TIMES!

Sunset Dinner Cruise, Cocktails, Dancing.. what a fun night! Let me tell you, seeing a sunset in Hawaii is wonderful but seeing it from the ocean, its like a paint brush painted the skies for the evening. Perfect for that special romantic moment with your loved one!

Unfortunately, I did not see the mystical green flash, but we did see several dolphins and the sunset over the water, magical!

Staff was very attentive and came by my dinner table through out the evening to make sure I was taken care of. Everyone on-board participated in the dancing. Thank you so much for a wonderful Sunset Dinner Cruise!

As mentioned in other reviews, most participants were foreigners. On the day we attended, I believe there was only one other Japanese group besides us.

After departing from Waikiki Beach, there is a safety briefing and a drink explanation, all in English. Once the explanation is over, drinks are served, and then you can relax while watching the sunset.

On the day we participated, it started off sunny, but it became cloudy, and unfortunately, we couldn't see a beautiful sunset. However, we were able to enjoy a leisurely and elegant time out in the waters off Waikiki. The young foreign girls were dancing with drinks in hand the whole time! Don't worry if you can't speak English at all! With so few Japanese people around, you can really feel like you're abroad.

Please make sure to use the restroom before boarding! You should assume there is no restroom on the boat. (There is one, but it has a terrible smell, and you really have to brace yourself to use it...) Well, it's for emergencies!

But other than that, it was fantastic! The next time I go to Hawaii, I will definitely sign up again!

他の方の口コミにもあるように、参加者の大半の方が外国人でした。私たちが参加したこの日も、日本人は私たち以外に１組だけだったと思います。

ワイキキビーチを出発すると、安全確認の説明と、ドリンクの説明があります。全て英語です。その説明が終わると、ドリンクが配られ、あとはサンセットを見ながらのんびりです。

私たちが参加したこの日は、最初は晴れていたのですが、途中から曇ってしまい、あいにくキレイなサンセットは見れませんでした。でも、ワイキキの沖でゆっくりのんびり、優雅な時間を過ごせました。外人の若い女の子たちは、終始お酒片手に踊っていましたよ☆　英語ができなくても全然大丈夫！日本人が少ないので、外国を感じることができます。

くれぐれも、乗船する前にトイレは済ませて下さい！船にはトイレが無いと思った方がいいです。（あるにはあるけど、ひどい悪臭で、相当覚悟しないと入れないと思います・・・）　まぁ、緊急用ですね！

でもそれ以外は最高です！
次回ハワイに行ったら、必ずまた申し込みます☆

I took my daughter on a Hawaiian vacation and I wanted to get out to celebrate the holiday in a special way somehow. She is 13 and just at that age where it is still "cool" to go out on dates with your dad. So I decided to take her on this cruise and make a big night of it.

It was perfect! We got a little dressed up and went on board...there was live music and a delicious dinner (I had Mahi Mahi that was out of this world, and they even had a vegetarian offering for my always on a diet daughter!)

Watching the fireworks show, and seeing my little girl happy and feeling like a queen for the night...that was priceless. Worth the money, without a doubt!

From the start to the end, great trip. The staff was unbelievable. They helped in all factors of the trip. From getting drinks, to helping people on board, to holding the buckets of the poor souls that had to much excitement. We will be back with the whole family. Thanks again for getting the double rainbow on the way back in.

I picked this cruise because I wanted to get out and do something for the Fourth of July, but I didn't want the hassle of dealing with huge crowds of people, fighting traffic, and being around a bunch of screaming teenagers running around.

This was the perfect choice for me. I am a big guy, so I like to eat...buffet style all the way, and I am a happy man. So the food was good. Drinks were available at reasonable prices, and the best part was nobody seemed to be there to get drunk, but just enjoyed some drinks and the night. The fireworks were the best ending to a good night. I made a great choice, obviously.

Very enjoyable trip and beautiful scenary

I took my sister on this sail last night..and this is by far the best sail (tour wise) this island has to offer. Tropical winds, beautiful deep blue ocean and amazing hawaiian coastal scenery.

Crew on-board both the Spirit of Aloha and Honi Olani are superb and exceed your service expectations. Fortunately, for the adult beverage people, this became an Open bar sail (Beer is usually $1 and mixed drinks are $2) but this is because the boat departed late.

No one comes on-board to get drunk or rowdy..we were all in silent agreement to enjoy our drinks, enjoy our scrumptious dinner and have a wonderful time.. everyone on-board did just that.

Everyone who boarded the vessel were strangers, but we all became friends by the end of the night. Thank You Hawai' Nautical for a wonderful evening of good food, drinks, friendly conversations and laughter.

It was my honeymoon! I was torn between this and a three-star option, but I definitely think this one is better. There are crew members who are second-generation Japanese, so language is not a problem at all, which is reassuring. The ship is smaller than I expected (it has sails) and feels like a luxurious cruise.

The food is a buffet. You can take whatever you like whenever you want, but there are no refills, so if you don't eat the good stuff early on, it will be gone (laughs). However, overall, the flavors are delicious even for Japanese people, and I enjoyed a lot of it! (Desserts are served later too☆)

The sunset is truly beautiful! There’s nothing obstructing the fireworks, so it’s really nice.

On the last day of my honeymoon, I made some wonderful memories!

ハネムーンでした！
スリースターと迷ったんですが、断然こっちのほうがいいとおもいます♪日系二世のクルーがいるので、言葉も全く問題なく安心です。思ったよりはだいぶ小さい船(帆が付いています)でお金持ちのクルージングって感じ。
料理はビュッフェ？です。好きな時に好きなモノを取って食べる感じですが、追加はないので、最初の方に食べないと美味しいモノはなくなります(笑)でも、全体的に日本人にも美味しい味付けで沢山いただきました♪(後でデザートも出てきます☆)
夕日はほんとに綺麗です！花火も遮るものが何もないのでとてもいいです☆
ハネムーンの最終日、
とってもステキな思い出ができました♪

After helicoptering over it the day before, my lady and I weren't sure seeing the Na Pali coastline from below by boat would be worth the time and money. Boy, were we glad we took the chance! The two experiences were totally different. The sunset dinner cruise on the Holoholo catamaran was up close and personal. We recommend it highly.

It was an evening cruise, and I had a really great time. At first, it was fine to wear a short-sleeved shirt since the sun was out, but as we went out to sea, it gradually got colder. I think it's a good idea to prepare something to wear over your clothes. Also, when you get on the boat, your feet will get wet, so wearing shorts or capri pants is best. The captain tells American jokes and sometimes uses Japanese.

夕方のクルージングでしたが、とてもとても楽しめました。
最初は日が出ていたため半袖で平気でしたが、海へ出て徐々に寒くなってきます。何か羽織る服を準備するといいと思います。
あとボートに乗るとき足が海に入るのでハーフパンツか短パンがベストです。
キャプテンのトークはアメリカンジョークをとばしてます。
時に日本語使ってくれます。

My Boyfriend and I had an incredible time on the Navatek. The employee who greeted us at the hotel was our server on the boat. She was the nicest most attentive women ever. The sunset was beautiful. This trip was a sheer pleasure.

The sunset viewed from the sea is exceptional. There is an emotion that only those who have experienced it can understand. On top of that, there are fireworks. You can enjoy a classic Hawaiian experience that makes you feel luxurious.

海から眺めるサンセットは格別です。体験した人にしかわからない感動があります。おまけに花火。リッチな気分が味わえるベタなハワイを体験できますよ。

I participated the day before returning home on my honeymoon. During my stay, I couldn't see the sunset very often, so I was looking forward to it.

There was one other family of Japanese people besides us, and since the explanations after boarding were in English, I only had a vague understanding of how to wear the life jackets and how to order drinks, but I had a great time.

Feeling the pleasant breeze under the blue sky, sipping champagne while listening to music was exceptional! The sunset in Hawaii was truly beautiful. Even though it was March, I was able to see whales in the distance. If I have the chance to come to Hawaii again, I would love to participate again. I highly recommend it!

ハネムーンで帰国日前日に参加しました。滞在中、なかなかサンセットを見ることができなかったので期待していました。

日本人は私達のほかファミリーが一組で、乗船後の説明なども英語のため、救命胴衣の着用方法や飲み物のオーダー方法などなんとなくでの理解でしたが楽しい時間を過ごせました。

気持ちよい風を受け、青い空の下、音楽を聴きながらのシャンパンは格別です！ハワイでの初めてのサンセットは本当に美しかったです。3月でしたが、遠くでクジラを見ることができました。またハワイに来るチャンスがあれば参加したいです。オススメです！

Enjoyed this greatly. Food was great ( did not spend on large supper), Sights were good, and we had a great, Boat was clean and crew were great.

I boarded the Sunset Catamaran for the first time. There are no Japanese people, so I feel a bit lonely, but I can enjoy the feeling of being abroad. Plus, the sunset viewed from the sea is amazing.

はじめてサンセットカタマランに乗船しました。日本人はいないので心細いですが、海外に来た気分を味わえます。それに海からみるサンセットは最高です。

An outstanding way to enjoy the waikiki sunset. Hawaiil activites is da bomb. our friday dinner cruise got cancelled due to weather. after a phone call to hawaii activites, they quickly got us rescheduled for the saturday evening cocktail cruise on the Hilton Aloha catamarran. We practically had this 50 ft sailboat to ourselves. a 1 1/2 hour cruise along the shores of waikiki. a beautiful sunset and saw humpback whales surfacing and "sounding". a fantastic way to spend our last evening in honolulu. The crew was great, attending to our every request. Great drinks and music. If you want a relaxing way to spend the evening and enjoy being out on the water, take this cruise.

I took my 11 and 15 year old on the cruise. We paid for the top deck with the lobster and steak and with a window seat. We all had a great time. Food was very good, view was excellent, and the ride was smooth. We couldn't have asked for a better way to spend our last night in wonderful Hawaii!!

Everyone was extremely helpful. My husband and I were directed to our table right away. When we decided to go up deck for the view we went back to our table and had our salads waiting for us. The lobster was delicious and they even helped crack it open. The entertainment was fun and engaging and when it came to disembark the ship, it was fast and painless...no line! My favorite part was the view of Honolulu and Waikiki at sunset.

We had a great time and would recommend this to other couples. The crew was excellent and very friendly.

Fun as always. This was our third time on this tour and we have loved it everytime.
