2-Hour Moana Sailing Waikiki Sunset Cruise with Drink Included

Excellent way to cap off a wonderful vacation

Reviewed by: Ben & Penny

This was a beautiful cruise with excellent customer service. Captain Johnny was the best. He called to help to provide directions and he made the trip a wonderful experience. He and his crew were great and the food was excellent. It was a wonderful evening that could not be matched. 5 star!!

2.5-Hour Turtle Snorkel Sail Tour from Waikiki Beach - Cold Brew Coffee, Snacks & One Drink Included

Good Break from the Crowds at Waikiki

Reviewed by: Ohio Couple

Captain Woody and Jacob were very knowledgeable, engaging and personal. We wanted to snorkel for 1 -2 hours and did not need drinks and food, just a couple of relaxing hours in the water and sitting. This was very affordable and low key. The turtles did not disappoint us as we followed and observed several along with a multitude of fish.

The trip does not include flippers so we rented 2 pairs for 10.00 total from the Waikiki Dive Shop on Nahua St., a short walk away.

Waikiki Snorkel with Turtles Cruise with Beers & Cocktails - Ke Kai Catamaran

Great bang for your buck!

Reviewed by: Amanda K

An amazing boating and snorkeling experience with an incredibly reasonable price! The crew was friendly and good-looking, the boat was beautiful, and the trip was just long enough to get a good fix of the sea without getting too cooked on the water. Plus with snorkeling gear (sans fins) and drinks!

Amazing sunset cruise

Reviewed by: Holly king

Had a great time. Crew was alot of fun. We loved Noah, and Fabio( his name isn't Fabio but that's what they call him.) Great soundtrack and yummy maitai's that flowed freely. It was at 25% capacity because we went 5 days after travel restrictions were lifted ...on the sunset cruise it didn't feel empty or like we were only getting part of the experience.( Most activities during corona felt that way)
And the scenery was incredible!
we had a great time and would definately go again!!!

Me and my boyfriend went during our stay in Waikiki and we had such a fantastic time. Even my boyfriend who is hesitant about boats/water activities loved it. The staff was so friendly and funny. It wasn't too crowded as a covid 19 precaution which was nice. And the mai tai's were 10/10.

Specific shoutout to Jeff on the crew. He made our trip even more amazing with some recommendations for hikes and food spots and he was just plain fun to talk to!

Waikiki Guided Beach Snorkeling Tour for Beginners with FREE Photos & Videos

ZOLA IS AMAZING!!!

Reviewed by: Lisa Covington

I have to admit that this being my first time snorkeling, I had never been so scared and nervous in my WHOLE life!!

Zola, our instructor, was extremely patient and caring throughout the entire experience. Even through I had to concentrate extremely hard with breathing and using my flippers, I was SO proud of myself and I couldn't have done it without him.

Ask for Zola for the snorkeling tour, you wont' be sorry. You will be in terrific hands!

It was our first scuba dive experience and we could not have had a better time!
All thanks to our instructor, Zola, he was super helpful from diving safety to the techniques and made us enjoy every second of the dive.
We want to point out and send a special thanks to Zola on how patient he was. He made sure I was comfortable in the water, since I was a bit scared at first, still getting used to the equipment and picking up the new breathing pattern.
We'll definitely do it again!

90-Min Waikiki Beach Sunset Cocktail Sail Cruise with FREE Drinks Included - Ke Kai Catamaran

Our first time going on a sunset cruise since the pandemic started

Reviewed by: JackyDaniels

This was the first activity/cruise my boyfriend and I went on since the pandemic started in March. Now that things on Oahu are opening up again we wanted to get out and have a nice evening. When we checked in on the beach, one of the crew members (wearing a mask) provided hand sanitizer and had us both sign in. Then we boarded and were served drinks right away (corona beer or maitais). Oahu's current regulations allow boats to carry 25% capacity on tours, so manu kai is allowed to have 12 passengers on board now. This actually made it really enjoyable because there was so much room to spread out across the catamaran. As for masks, the crew didn't enforce face masks or social distancing to any extent. The only time you were told to put on a mask was at check-in, boarding, and de-boarding. Once you're on the boat, you were told you didn't have to wear it and none of the crew members were wearing masks during the cruise. Overall I'd say they did the bare minimum, if that, for preventing the spread of coronavirus so I'd recommend going for a sunset cruise that is really putting in more effort to keep their guests and community safe.

花火鑑賞セーリング マカニ・カタマラン号 嬉しいドリンク付き!<ワイキキ送迎可/金曜日限定/ケワロ湾発>

It shakes quite a bit, so please be careful. そこそこ揺れますのでお気を付け下さい。

Reviewed by: ブラザー!

The size of the boat feels neither too big nor too small, but if you are cruising for the first time, I would recommend a slightly larger ship. I think it's better not to expect much from the meals on this type of tour. However, the fireworks viewed from the shore create a very nice atmosphere. Since it's a catamaran, it seems to have less rocking, but after all, it's a yacht, so if the wind picks up, it can rock quite a bit. By the way, during my time, there was hardly any rocking, but it's safe to assume that it will generally rock.

船のサイズは大きからず、小さからずという感じですが、初めてクルージングされるのであれば、もう少し大きな船をオススメします。この手のツアーでの食事は期待しない方が良いと思います。ただ岸からみる花火はとても雰囲気は良いです。カタマランですので揺れは少ないようですが、しかし所詮ヨットですので風が出てくれば、かなり揺れます。ちなみに私の時はほぼ揺れはなかったですが、基本揺れると思っておいて間違いないと思われます。

  • 船上から気持ち良いですよ!揺れること覚悟です!

  • 距離はありますが岸からの眺めはとても雰囲気goodです

【冬季限定!1/3~3/21】ホエールウォッチ スターオブホノルル号 1500名乗船可能なハワイ最大のクルーズ船!軽食&ドリンク付き<ワイキキ送迎可>

I was able to see the whale somehow. なんとかクジラさんを見ることができました。

Reviewed by: ブラザー!

It was far away, but I somehow saw a whale (^_^;) While I can't expect much from the meal, it's nice that the ship itself is large and spacious. Since it's nature, you can't always expect things to go as planned, but if you're lucky, you might see some jumps. Please join with an open heart.

遠くですが、なんとなく(^_^;)クジラさんが見えました。お食事は期待できませんが船自体が大きくてゆったりできるのは良いですね。自然の事なので常に期待通りとはいきませんが、運が良ければジャンプとか見られるそうです。広い心で参加して下さいね。

It became a great memory! いい思い出になりました!

Reviewed by: ハネムーンで初ハワイ

The weather was nice and it felt very pleasant. I was able to see it a few times, but I had imagined there would be many more up close, so it was quite far away and a bit disappointing. I thought it might be dangerous to get too close, but it was too far to feel the impact. I think it's good to go with the mindset of just wanting to see a little bit! I wasn't able to see the appearance like in the image photos.

天気もよくてとても気持ちよかったです。
何度か見ることができましたが、もっと近くにたくさんいるのを想像していたので、かなり遠くて少し残念でした。おそらく近づきすぎたら危険だからかなと思いましたが、遠すぎて迫力はなかったです。少しでも見れたらいいな、という気持ちで行くといいと思います!イメージ写真のような姿は見れませんでした。

My now fiancé loves mermaids. So I knew she would love to do this. She absolutely loved swimming with the tail on and the photo shoot we did was absolutely hilarious. If you’re a guy, you will probably have to swallow some ego here but it’s worth it. Ricki the instructor is amazing. We swam and then I popped the question overlooking diamond head. Great for all ages.

サンセットセーリング ホロカイ・カタマラン号 オープンバーでの飲み放題付き!金曜日は大人限定でゆったりクルーズ<ワイキキ発>

I was moved by the wonderful sunset and the pod of dolphins swimming in the rough waves! 素晴らしい夕陽と荒波の中を泳ぐイルカの群れに感動!

Reviewed by: Hiro

When I come to Hawaii, I always make sure to include sunset sailing in my plans. Once you experience it, you'll be hooked! I thoroughly enjoyed sailing while taking in views of Waikiki Beach and Diamond Head, as well as watching the beautiful sunset.

This time, what impressed me the most was encountering a pod of dolphins. At first, I could see something like dorsal fins peeking through the waves, and they occasionally jumped to show themselves. Sometimes they even twisted while jumping... They swam alongside the boat for a long time, which was so exciting that I couldn't take my eyes off them. Seeing dolphins swimming in the ocean for the first time truly made me feel "amazing!"

After the sun sets, the temperature drops, so a windbreaker is necessary. I'm really looking forward to what discoveries await on my next sailing!

ハワイに来たら、必ずサンセットセーリングは予定に入れています。
一度体験したら、もう病みつきですよ!
船上からワイキキビーチやダイヤモンドヘッドなどを眺めたり、沈みゆく美しい夕陽を見たりして、セーリングをたっぷり楽しめました。
今回、一番感動したのは、イルカの群れに遭遇したことです。最初は波間に背ビレのようなものが見え隠れしていたのが、時々ジャンプしてその姿を見せてくれました。時々ひねりながらジャンプすることも…。ずーっと船と並んで泳いでくれたので、目が離せないほど興奮しました。海でイルカが泳ぐのを初めて見て本当に「すごい!」と感じました。
日が沈んだ後は気温が下がるのでウィンドブレーカーは必要ですね。
次のセーリングでは、どんな発見があるのかとても楽しみです!
