Great time on the water
Reviewed by: Jessica, 2022/07/10They are punctual! Make sure you get there in time. Parking is a beast on the beach, took us a little over an hour to park. But as far as the ride they were awesome! Very chill and relaxing. My family was terrified when taking off but absolutely loved it once we were out there they didn’t want to come back on land we got to see turtles it was an amazing experience and awesome pricing . Definitely recommend! 5/5

Amazing Scenic Day Cruise at a Budget Friendly Price!
Reviewed by: James A. , 2022/07/04Jenna and the crew are very friendly and accomodating. Safety checks are performed before and after the boat docked to shore. Jenna is amazing with her boat-piloting skills! The views are amazing on shore and while on water! I highly recommend Mana Kai Catamaran!

Mana Kai Catamaran Day Cruise/1 pm
Reviewed by: Alex Ramirez , 2022/06/07Jenna & The Cruise Driver we’re extremely friendly, and made the experience for our family and the rest of the riders very fun and safe. They explained to us always what to expect. They let us experience the waters of the ocean by putting our feet in as we cruised in the sailboat and listened to music. The ambiance felt great and soothing. They also took us turtle watching and got to see some beautiful huge sea turtles. We also enjoyed the splash of the waves while we sat on the net of the sailboat, my boys enjoyed that so much and it kept them refreshed! And the best part is the dip in the water, so refreshing and wonderful experience for those who wanted to take a a quick dip. I’m so thankful to Jenna as she took good care of the group, while The cruise driver was always so detailed in explaining everything we would see and do. They both went above & beyond. Best experience ever!!! Mahalo!!!!!

A great little trip
Reviewed by: Sarah S., 2022/02/09The guys were very chill and gave us a great trip over to diamond head and around turtle canyon. It really made our morning! If we had more time here we would have done another trip with them! It was especially nice being able to board from the beach instead of driving down to a marina.

An experience worth every penny!
Reviewed by: JnB , 2021/08/29This was so much fun for my boyfriend and I! We had great conversation with the staff, saw several turtles, the most beautiful water, and the view of the mountains was everything you could want from Hawaii. I strongly recommend!

Great cruise
Reviewed by: PES, 2021/08/21It was an affordable and fun cruise with beautiful views. We also saw sea turtles. Also wear a swim suit, you’ll get wet getting in and out of the catamaran and during the cruise.

A highly enjoyable getaway!
Reviewed by: J. Dean, 2021/07/20Our Family of 4 had been on several excursions during our week of vacation in O’ahu. This booking was by far the easiest! The entire family (including 2 teens) had a very memorable experience. I would highly recommend putting this on your “To Do” list. It may not seem like much, but once you get out there (quite a ways out there) it is a blast! ...and the Staff made it easy for me to just relax and enjoy.

Amazing trip
Reviewed by: Grace , 2021/06/01My friends and I had a ton of fun on this catamaran! It was super accommodating and the workers were all very sweet and welcoming. It was super nice to spend some time around the area while not completely emptying my bank account.

Blue Skies and Blue Ocean on a Rainbow Sail
Reviewed by: Pigalicious, 2018/09/29If you want to get out of Waikiki for a quick outing then this Tradewind Sail with Mana Kai Catamaran is perfect! Departing from the middle of Waikiki, it's a beach boarding and all you need is a pair of sunglasses and water. The captain and crew took us towards out the blue ocean and there you are just sitting looking at the iconic Diamond Head.
It's was great to just relax and bake under the sun for one hour!

Loved it!
Reviewed by: Paula, 2018/09/14On our last day of vacation, we took the morning cruise. It was amazing! Woody and Zach are great! It was so relaxing ... And those views! Just gorgeous! We had the added bonus of seeing sea turtles and dolphins ... And Woody drew closer and cut the engine so we could watch them for a while. If we had found this cruise sooner we would definitely have taken it more than once.

Great Day!!
Reviewed by: Ms.Ems, 2018/09/01Such a beautiful weather! The green color of the ocean and the blue skies doesn't lie! Thanks to the friendly crew of Mana Kai Catamaran for making this such a wonderful experience! The whole gang at my work decided to take this trip together and it was truly a great way for us to loosen up after a stressful week!
For only $31 per person, you'll enjoy a fun ride, sip on your favorite drink (BYOB), or snacks, listen to good music, and feeling the breezy tradewinds while watching the gorgeous scenic view of Waikiki! Ahhhh..mazing! I would go again for sure!

Wonderful time!
Reviewed by: Dianna, 2018/08/31It was sunny and clear, perfect weather to go sailing! We had lunch before departing so we brought light appetizers & drinks on board. The only "table" was the top of the storage box. Luckily, we didn't bring anything too large with us so it wasn't too bad.
The ocean was beautiful even though the waves can get pretty rough. Highly recommend taking motion sickness medicine before going out. It made the experience so much more enjoyable without worrying about my stomach.
Captain Johnny & his crew were great! Very friendly and funny. It was like a bunch of friends hanging out on a sail. I didn't even care that I got splashed by the waves. You guys are the best, can't wait to go again!

A fun afternoon on a boat
Reviewed by: Mr.Anonymous, 2018/08/30This was a really fun sail. We ordered pizza and brought it on board with drinks, though since it was an afternoon sail we had most of our lunch before departing. Bench seating with no tables, so we had to improvise. Finger foods that are easy to eat and not very messy are ideal to bring on, as are cans and bottles for drinks.
It's really cool and windy out on the water, so it can get rough if the boat goes near Diamond Head where the water isn't protected from the waves. That said, if you're willing to get wet it's a lot of fun sitting on the netting and getting splashed!
