All Reviews for Sunset & Cocktail Cruises

we absolutely loved our trip on the Mana Kai Catamaran! Our captain was named Brewski and he made sure that we all had a great time and everybody was safe. Beautiful views, fun vibe, and good people.

Buy a handle of rum and mix it with some fresh Hawaiian juices, mix it up in a huge jug and bring it aboard for everybody to share! you will make friends quick! everyone is on vacation so its a great vibe

It was an exciting and enjoyable evening. I had to make a reservation early for the evening, as last year it was fully booked and I couldn't get in. This time, I made a reservation from Japan and went on my second choice date. Since most of the guests were Japanese, I felt a bit more at ease.

迫力があり楽しい夕時でした。
夕方の予約は早い目にしないといけないので去年は予約いっぱいでダメだったので今回は日本で予約して第二希望日で乗りました。日本の方がほとんどだったので少し安心でした。

This was my third time on the Sunset Sailing Mai Tai Catamaran, and for the first time, I saw other Japanese participants besides ourselves.

Still, the view of Diamond Head from the sea, the refreshing scenery and breeze, and the setting sun were amazing. I think when I go to Hawaii again, I will rely on the Sunset Sailing for my fourth time.

今回で３回目の【サンセットセーリング　マイタイ・カタマラン号】でしたが、初めて自分達以外の日本人が参加しているのを見ました。

それでも海側から見るダイヤモンドヘッドや、爽やかな景色と風、沈んでいく夕日は最高で、またハワイに行った時には４回目のサンセットセーリングにお世話になると思います。

Friday night firework dinner cruise was fantastic.
Drinks, music, food, picturesque views of the city, mountains, and ocean. Sat on the front of the boat outside with my wife and 2 teenage boys.
A memory that’s hard to recreate. I read reviews prior to the trip and saw griping about the food.
Ridiculous in my opinion. If you want gourmet food then go to a 5 Star restaurant. If you want the memory of a sunset cruise on a catamaran with fireworks, alcoholic beverages, music, and fun people the. I recommend

Watching the fireworks from the sea on Friday was such a luxury. The yacht cruiser was comfortable and didn't sway much. The food wasn't gourmet, but there was plenty of it, and drinks were generously unlimited. Above all, the captain and the crew were all fantastic.

金曜日の花火を洋上から見るなんてとても贅沢でした。
ヨット・クルーザーはさして揺れることもなく快適で、
料理は高級ではないが、量は十分あり、飲み物もご厚意で飲み放題でした。
何より船長はじめ乗組員は皆様最高です。

The wind was strong and the waves were high, but it was a pleasant sailing experience while enjoying a Mai Tai. Last time, dolphins swam alongside us, so I was hoping for the same this time, but unfortunately, they didn't show up! I would love to participate again.

風が強く波も高かったけど、マイタイを頂きながら気持ちいいセーリングでした。前回はイルカが併走したので今回も期待してたのですが、今回は現れてくれず残念！ また参加したいです。

I have visited Hawaii many times, but it has been a while since I went out to sea on a boat. My wife, who easily gets seasick, suggested trying a catamaran cruise. Unfortunately, due to the cloudy sky and strong winds, we couldn't see the sunset, but we enjoyed a pleasant time in the sea breeze. Next time, I would like to go on a calm, sunny day.

これまで何度となく訪れたハワイですが、海に船で出るのは久しぶり。船酔いしやすい妻が乗ってみたいと言い出したカタマラン・クルーズ。
曇り空かつ風の強い日だったため、サンセットは残念ながら見ることはできなかったが、潮風の中を心地よい時間を過ごせた。
今度は晴れた穏やかな日に乗船してみたいと思う。

I was relieved to find out that it was okay as long as I arrived by the boarding time when I called because I was running late for check-in. It was a day with very strong winds and quite high waves, and almost everyone got pretty wet when boarding the boat from the shore. Unfortunately, I couldn't see the sunset, but it was a great experience to see Waikiki Beach and Diamond Head from the sea. I would like to try again next time.

チェックイン時間に遅刻しそうになりTelすると、乗船時間までに来てくれればOKとのことで助かりました。風が非常に強い日で波がかなり高く、波打ち際から船に乗り込む際にほとんど全員がかなり濡れました。
サンセットは残念ながら見れませんでしたが、海から見るワイキキビーチやダイヤモンドヘッドはいい経験になりました。
次回リベンジしたいと思います。

The sunset was obstructed by clouds as it sank into the sea, but this cruise was very pleasant, and believe it or not, it's my fourth time. When you come to Hawaii, you have to take this cruise to really get started!

サンセットは海に沈むには雲が邪魔しちゃいましたが、とってもこのクルーズは気持ちがよくなんだかんだと4回目です。ハワイに来たらこれに乗らないと始まらないね！

It was boring because everything was in English and I couldn't understand what was being said. It felt like a waste of money since it was only foreigners who were excited. The snacks were also not great.

英語ばかりで英語がわからないと何を言っているのかわからずつまらなかった。外国人だけで盛り上がり高いお金を出したのにもったいなかったです。軽食ももイマイチでした。

During the night tour, we could watch the fireworks. I recommend bringing a jacket or windbreaker to protect against the cold wind.

This is my second time participating. This time, I tried it during sunset. Unfortunately, due to the weather, I wasn't able to see the sunset, but no matter what time you participate, it's an activity where you can feel the breeze of Waikiki. I'm sure I want to ride again.

二度目の参加です
今回はサンセットの時間帯にしてみました
あいにくの天気で夕日にはお目にかかることが出来ませんでしたが
ただ、どの時間帯に参加してもワイキキの風を感じられるアクティビティです
きっとまた乗りたいと思います

This is my second time participating. Last time, after checking in, I wasn't informed of anything and just waited for over 40 minutes. However, this time, perhaps due to improvements in the system, I was informed of the meeting time 50 minutes later at check-in, which allowed me to return to the hotel for a bit. Unfortunately, the cruise was marred by cloudy weather, so I was disappointed that I couldn't see the sunset.

2度目の参加です。前回は受け付けをしてから何も伝えてもらえず、ただただ40分以上待たされましたが、今回は、システムが改善されたのか、受け付け時に50分後の集合時間を伝えてもらえてた事で、一度ホテルに帰る事が出来ました。肝心のクルーズは、生憎の曇天だったためサンセットを見られず残念でした。

I was nervous about whether we would make it since our pickup was over 30 minutes late. A young American couple waiting next to us asked, "Where is it going?" When I showed them my voucher, we realized we were on the same tour, and they contacted the tour company for us, which was a relief. The atmosphere on the boat wasn't bad, but it seemed a bit off for us. The only time it really got lively was during the fireworks. Well, the main purpose was to see the fireworks from the sea, so my husband and I thought, "Well, it's okay," as we returned home. Ah, it’s hard to say we had a lot of fun, though.

お迎えが30分以上遅れて間に合うのかドキドキでした.隣でお迎えを待っていた若いアメリカ人のカップルの男性がwere is go と聞いてくれたのでバウチャーを見せると同じツアーということが分かりツアー会社に連絡をとってくれたので一安心でした.船の中の雰囲気は悪くないけど私たちにはちょっと合わなかったようです.花火のときだけは大盛り上がり　まあ一番の目的は海上から花火を見ることだったので主人と二人　まあいいか　と帰ってきました.ああー楽しかったとは言い難いかな？

It was a wonderful activity. The sunset while swaying on the waves was the best time. The Mai Tai was great too. Interacting with the people I rode with made it even more enjoyable.

とても素晴らしいACTIVITY
波に揺られてサンセットが見れて最高の時間(^ ^)でした。マイタイ がまた合う(^ ^)
一緒に乗った人達との交流がまた楽しさを倍増させてくれた。

The sunset over Hawaii viewed from the sea was grand and truly magical. When the boat headed out to sea, we had to overcome large waves, which felt like being on a roller coaster... I couldn't help but scream. Once we were out at sea, the rocking settled down, and I enjoyed the cruise while sipping on a drink. The captain and crew were friendly and made the experience fun. Additionally, there were fewer Japanese people, so it really felt like I was "overseas," and I was able to bond with people from various countries on board. Even if we didn't speak the same language, it's convenient now with smartphone translation apps. Departing from Waikiki Beach, this activity offers about two hours of enjoyment. This is a must-do when you come to Hawaii!

海の上から眺めるハワイの夕日は、スケールが大きくとても幻想的でした。
船が沖に乗り出す時、大きな波を乗り越えるので、まるでジェットコースターに乗ったかのような感覚に…。思わず叫んでしまいました。
一旦沖に出てしまうと揺れは収まり、ゆっくりとドリンクを飲みながらクルーズを楽しめました。
キャプテンやクルーもフレンドリーで楽しく盛り上げてくれます。また、日本の方が少ないので「海外に来たーーー」という気分が味わえ、同乗した色々な国の方とも親しくなれます。言葉が通じなくても今は、スマホの翻訳アプリもあるので便利ですよね。
ワイキキビーチから出発、約2時間たっぷり楽しめるアクティビティですね。
これはもうハワイに来たらマストです！

We really enjoyed the Makani Dinner Sail. Booking was easy through the website and the pick-up instructions were clear. When we arrived at the Illikai at the appointed time, the shuttle driver greeted us by name and we were off!

On board, the crew was super-friendly and low-key, not uptight or scoldy at all, which is always nice when you're out on an adult dinner cruise. And I was really happy that once we got out into open water, the captain shut off the engines and proceeded under sail. Much nicer ambiance without the diesels droning. Drinks were perfectly fine. My only critique would be food quality. The buffet they rolled out was perfectly fine for a boomer reunion picnic but as a picky millennial, I would happily pay a little extra per ticket for a level-up on the dinner spread. Maybe audition a few new caterers? Just didn't think it was at the same standard as everything else. Overall though, a really lovely break from Waikiki!

I participated in the evening on the day of arrival. I was wondering how the sunset would be since there were clouds, but it was visible at times through the clouds, and I was moved. There were only one or two other Japanese people besides us. Music was playing, and the foreigners were really into it. There were free drinks, including beer, Mai Tai, and soft drinks, for two hours. I also purchased a photo taken before boarding as a memory. I highly recommend it.

到着日の夕方に参加しました。
雲が出ていたので夕日はどうかなと思いましたが、時々雲の間から見えて
感動しました。
日本人は私たちともう1組くらいしかいませんでした。
音楽がかかっていて、外国人はノリノリ。
2時間の間ビールやマイタイ、ソフトドリンクのフリードリンク付きです。
乗る前に撮っていただいた写真も思い出に購入しました。
おすすめです。

It felt really good!
It was a tour with few Japanese people.
I’m not good at English, and while they explained things in a fun way with jokes, I just couldn’t understand!

とても気持ちよかったー！
日本人が少ないツアーだった。
英語が苦手で、、、ジョークを交えながら楽しく説明してくれていたが、どうも分からなかった！

Everyone was friend and outgoing! Great staff!!! (:

The fireworks were very beautiful and moving.

However, it was very disappointing that the people at the front were drunk, throwing their drinks into the sea and vomiting in the water.

花火がとても綺麗で感動しました。


でも先頭に乗ってた方々が酔っ払って、
お酒を海に捨てたり、海に吐いたりしていて
とても残念でした。。

Watching the sun set was beautiful! The entertainment and food was good, especially the unlimited crab legs.

It is very windy on the boat, so a jacket is essential. I was quite disappointed that I couldn't encounter any whales, but in the end, I was able to see a whale, so it was really great!

船の上はとても風が強いので、上着は必須です。
なかなかクジラに遭遇できず、残念に思っていたが、最後の最後にクジラを見ることが出来たのでとてもよかったです！

Unfortunately, it started cloudy and then it rained, so I was disappointed that I couldn't see the sunset... Since I arrived on the same day, I didn't eat much during the day, which made me regret having just a light snack. However, I drank a lot and managed to enjoy myself to some extent.

残念ながら曇りから始まり、雨が降ってしまったのでサンセットは見れず残念な結果に…
到着日に行ったので昼間にあまり食事をしないで行ってしまったので、軽食にしてしまったことが悔やまれました。でも、たくさん飲んでそれなりに楽しめました

I joined the tour on the recommendation of a local friend, and the crew was really fun, making it enjoyable even for those who don't understand much English! The weather was great, and it was truly the best! I would love to join again if I have the chance! It can be a bit windy and chilly on the boat, so I think it's a good idea to bring a light jacket.

現地の友達に勧められて参加したツアーでしたが、船員さんも凄くノリが良く英語があまり分からなくても楽しめました！天気も良くて本当に最高でした！！また機会があれば参加したいと思いました！船の上は少し風も強く肌寒いので、薄手のジャンパーぐらいは持って行った方がいいと思います。

It was a nice outing. You can bring your own liquor. The crew was nice. They only offer beer and water, but I think wine would be a nice addition. It was good, especially for the price. Nothing exceptional though.

It was a sunset tour, but we couldn't see the sunset at all, so it was just a tour to enjoy drinks, which was a bit disappointing... The people who were lively and entertaining were truly wonderful.

サンセットツアーなのに夕日が全く見えなくて、お酒を飲んで楽しむだけのツアーで、少しガッカリしました。。。
盛り上げていた方は、本当に素敵な人達でした。

I participated with my wife and our son who just turned four. My wife was worried because there were reviews mentioning that the boat sways, and she tends to get seasick, but we had no problems and enjoyed ourselves completely. However, I think it really depends on the weather and wave conditions, so it might be good to plan while checking the weather forecast. The weather was nice, so we were able to fully enjoy the sunset. There were also some older participants who approached us and spoke to us in simple English, which made for very good memories.

妻と4歳になったばかりの息子と参加。
揺れるという口コミがあり、船酔いしやすい妻は心配していましたが、私達は全く問題なく楽しめました。ただしやはり天候や波の状況によると思うので、天気予報を見ながら計画されるのが良いかと思います。
天気も良かったのでサンセットも十分に満喫できました。年配の参加者も散見され、簡単な英語で話しかけて頂けたりととても良い思い出となりました。

The fireworks were very beautiful.
The boat was small, and I mistakenly made a reservation thinking it was a dinner cruise on a large ship.

花火はとても綺麗でした。
船が小さく、大型船でのディナークルーズと勘違いして予約してしまいました。

This will be a repeat visit.
The scenery, the wind, and the vibe are truly amazing.
It can get a bit chilly when you head out to sea, so it might be a good idea to bring a jacket.
I will use this service again.

リピートの利用になります。
風景も風もノリも本当に最高です。
沖に出るとちょっと寒いので上着を持って行くといいかも。
また利用します。
