We really enjoyed this cruise! We went in Nov so the beginning of winter there. Waters were just starting to get a little rougher. No one in our group gets seasick so we had no issues but some others on the cruise that were prone to seasickness were struggling a little. The staff were all super friendly and shared a lot about the history along the coast, films that were shot there, and other recommendations in the area. Highly recommend!
The Na Pali Coast Sunset Dinner Cruise was an amazing experience, overwhelmed by the beauty of nature along the Na Pali Coast. Thanks to taking motion sickness medication 30 minutes before boarding, I was able to enjoy it comfortably, and the food was very delicious. The crew was very kind, answering questions politely and providing excellent service, even taking photos at scenic points. The sunset was particularly magnificent, with the beautiful sun coloring the sea and sky, creating a memorable moment. Unfortunately, I didn't get to see any dolphins or whales, but it was still a very satisfying cruise. I was able to enjoy the scenery known as the filming locations for Jurassic Park and Pirates of the Caribbean, creating unforgettable memories.
ナ・パリ・コースト サンセットディナークルーズは、ナパリコーストの大自然に圧倒される素晴らしい体験でした。乗船の30分前に酔い止めを飲んだおかげで、快適に楽しむことができ、ご飯もとても美味しかったです。クルーはとても親切で、質問にも丁寧に答えてくれ、絶景ポイントでは写真を撮ってくれるなど、サービスも行き届いていました。特にサンセットは壮大で、美しい夕日が海と空を彩り、心に残る最高の瞬間でした。残念ながらイルカや鯨を見ることはできませんでしたが、それでも大満足のクルーズでした。ジュラシックパークやパイレーツ・オブ・カリビアンのロケ地としても知られる景色を堪能でき、忘れられない思い出ができました。

Great tour, beautiful Na Pali coast, great sized catamaran!
Average food, Very little narration of sites along the way - also hard to hear with engines running. Servers were attentive. Drinks way below average. Mai Tais out of a cooler igloo container? Dirty metal cups.
My husband and I totally enjoyed the NaPali coast tour. We had a great day on the water thanks to the crew of the NaPali Kai lll. Our first time on this tour and we highly recommend it. Mahalo!
What a great way to see the Napali coast!
Our captain and crew were incredible. The captain is a highly skilled driver, maneuvering our 39 ft boat into caves. The best part of the tour.
Snorkeling, seeing dolphins…what a great day!
Highly recommend. Best bang for your buck by far!
I loved the cruise!... Sit in the back if you don't like the movement of the boat. The scenery and water was beautiful! We saw dolphins and turtles! The weather was beautiful!! Lastly, the crew was the best!!! Can't wait to go again!
A really lovely balance of getting to see the Na Pali and enjoying dinner while getting the gorgeous views!
Liko took such great care of our group, and had so much knowledge on the history of Kauai!
Views I will never get out of my head, the Na Pali will bring me coming back to Kauai.
This was our favorite excursion! The captain and crew were so fun and knowledgeable! The coast was beautiful, and we saw lots of sea turtles and dolphins. The snorkeling was great too. We would highly recommend this company!
Due to a COVID case among the staff, our morning snorkeling tour was rescheduled for the next day. There were five friendly staff members, including the captain, all of whom worked hard. The captain, who is of Native American and Chinese descent, was entertaining and provided excellent service, bringing the catamaran close to the cliffs of Na Pali and splashing participants with waterfall water. We enjoyed a variety of stories about the island and Na Pali. The scenery of Na Pali is featured in many movies, including Jurassic Park, and I believe it is worth seeing at least once.
One thing to note is that I had heard Na Pali can be rough at sea, but since the tour was changed to a relatively calm morning, I felt reassured. However, on the return trip, we faced headwinds and had to ride over waves pushing towards us, which resulted in all of my family getting seasick...
The large catamaran, breakfast, lunch, and the hardworking staff, along with the humorous and talkative captain, were all excellent. However, since we hardly saw any fish while snorkeling and the ride was too intense, I would rate it four stars.
スタッフにCOVIDの人が出たとかで、翌日のモーニングシュノーケルツアーに変更になりました。スタッフはキャプテンを入れて5名、いずれもよく働くフレンドリーなスタッフで、キャプテンは、ネイティブインディアンと中国人のハーフ、話が面白く、また、ナパリの岸壁ぎりぎりにカタマランを近づけ、参加者に滝の水をかけるなど、サービス精神満点でした。話も、島の話、ナパリの話など多様な話で楽しめました。ナパリの景色は、ジュラシックパークその他の映画に多々出てきたもので、なかなか見られないもので一見の価値ありだと思います。
注意が必要なのは、ナパリは海が荒いと聞いていたのですが、比較的穏やかな朝のツアーに変更になり、安心して臨んだところ、帰りは向かい風で手前に押し寄せる波を乗り越え続けるライドとなり、家族全員船酔いに。。。
大きなカタマラン、朝食、昼食、かいがいしく働くスタッフ、ユーモアあり話し上手なキャプテンと、文句なしだったのですが、シュノーケルで魚がほとんど見えなかったのと、あまりに激しいライドで４つ星とさせていただきます。

The view was something else, let me tell. Cruising the coast and seeing the unique geographical features was amazing. I don't know I've ever seen anything like this. The host and crew was super informative and helpful. They even provided and took care of my GF who was starting to feel seasick. They were well-equipped to host everyone, not to mention that they were pretty entertaining and funny. I highly recommend!
The captain and his 1st mate were excellent. The tour it self was very informative. It was beautiful. The only thing i would suggest maybe was to have a variety of drinks. Not so sweet and sugary. Add some vodka.
We had an amazing time. Our boat captain and crew were informative, interactive, and friendly. The views were breathtaking and we thoroughly enjoyed our snorkeling adventure as well! 10 out of 10!! This is a must do while in Kauai!!
We had a wonderful time on this boat tour. The scenery was spectacular. We really enjoyed the snorkeling portion of the tour. The captain and crew were very knowledgeable and shared a lot of historical information about the area. Going into the sea caves was pretty cool. We highly recommend this tour.
No complaints from our crew (myself, wife, 6 yr old girl, and 9 yr old boy).
It was a fantastic experience and would definitely do it again if we were to ever go back.
Food was unreal- better than some of the restaurants we ate at! The views of course were equally as unreal
I made a reservation through the website the day before boarding, as it was cheaper than booking directly with the local tour company due to tax differences. I looked at several options, and this was the lowest price for the same conditions. Still, 30,000 yen per person is OVER.
The reservation process was easy, and I showed the issued voucher to the local tour company, signed, and completed check-in. I checked in at 14:00, one hour before departure, and had a briefing at 14:15. After that, it took about 5 minutes to move to the port. We departed 15 minutes ahead of schedule. Because the waves were high, it felt like being on a roller coaster. We arrived in about 1 hour and 20 minutes. We spent about 2 hours in Napali, and on the way back, we took our time eating a bento while enjoying the sunset, returning by 19:20.
Other tour companies have smaller boats, but you need to be prepared to get wet. The large yacht with a buffet is gorgeous, but it can't get close to the shore, so this tour, which is faster and includes bento and unlimited drinks (including alcohol), was great. There seems to be a morning departure as well, but since it's early, I recommend the afternoon departure with sunset.
現地のツアー会社に直接予約よりも税金分安かったので、乗船前日にサイトから予約。いくつか見たがここが同条件では最安値。それでも1人3万円はOVER。
予約も簡単でしたし、現地ツアー会社には発行されたバウチャーを見せて、サインをしてチェックイン完了。
出航1時間前の14:00に受付し、14:15にブリーフィング。その後港まで移動が約5分。出航予定の15分前に出航。波が高かったせいで、ジェットコースターに乗っているような気分。1時間20分程度で到着。2時間くらいはナパリにいて帰りはお弁当を食べながら2時間くらいかけてゆっくり目で帰り最後は夕日を見て19:20には帰着。
他のツアー会社には小型のボートもあるが、濡れる覚悟が必要。ブッフェ付きの大型ヨットはゴージャスだが、岸壁には近づけないので、スピードも早く、お弁当付きドリンク(アルコールも)飲み放題のこのツアーが良かった。午前出発もあるようだが、朝も早いしサンセット着きの午後出発がおすすめかと。

What an amazing afternoon on the water! The captain Glenn had a great sense of humor and maneuvered the boat expertly, keeping everyone informed about what was coming next. Meanwhile Alec and Aaron did an amazing job of making everyone feel at home on the boat from great cocktails to great conversation! Would highly recommend!
To pre-note, the waters are very wavey so be weary of ocean illness, but we luckily beat it and had a wonderful am
The experience our family has on this snorkel tour was truly amazing from start to finish. The scenery was absolutely breathtaking, with crystal-clear waters.
Our guides were truly amazing. They were friendly and enthusiastic. They knew so much of the history of the Na Pali and integrated interesting little facts and throughout the tour.
They provided everything you need from drinks throughout the tour and lunch.
We would definitely use this tour group again!!!

Nice view
Excellent snorkeling experience

Must for kauai visit
We really appreciate you beautiful feedback! We are glad you enjoyed our amazing staff, food and snorkeling! Hope to see you here again!
My wife and I enjoyed the boat this past Tuesday. Wendel and Mitchel were excellent and we learned a lot from the narration and information about this area. Was a enjoyable evening.
The Na Pali coast tour was amazing, the views were incredible and the captain and crew were extremely helpful, knowledgeable and skilled in maneuvering the boat into sea caves and along the coast.
We went with the family, including two kids (5 &7 yo) and everyone loved the tour.
The snorkeling was also a highlight and the crew had all the gear to make it safe and fun.
Our lunch was also very yummy!
And as a bonus we saw some dolphins that jumped and flipped out of the water for us, and also a sea turtle.
We could not think of anything that could have been better.
Aloha Andrew! We really appreciate you folks for joining us and we really love your amazing feedback on our accommodations, So happy your 5 & 7 yo enjoyed the tour! Thank you again for joining us!
A large high-speed boat was launched, but the waves were high and it rocked quite a bit, causing some people to get seasick. There were also a few people on the deck getting soaked by the waves. After about an hour and a half, we arrived at the Napali Coast, where breathtaking views spread out in a panorama. On the way back, we enjoyed the sunset, making it a double delight.
大きな高速船出すが波が高くかなり揺れ船酔いした方も何人かいました。
デッキで波もかぶってびしょ濡れになってる方もチラホラ〜1時間半位でナパリコースト到着
絶景がパノラマで広がります。
帰りはサンセットとなりダブルで楽しめたました。

Great river tour boat ride when wind on the island was difficult elesewhere. Great service!!
Everyone should be so fortunate to experience this cruise - Na Pali is Majestic and beyond Beautiful, the entire ride over was relaxing, and the crew were informative, funny and passionate about sharing the wonders of the place they call home. This IS paradise. Go on this cruise, you will never forget this wonderous, magical place and you will feel blessed to have experienced it at least once in your life. Enjoy!!!!
