As someone who scours reviews making sure to pick the right one, I definitely recommend this sail!!!
The crew was fantastic and extremely helpful the entirety of the trip. The boat fits a good amount of people but is still small enough to feel like you are not lost in a crowd. When leaving the dock, we saw a big group of surfers and then sailed along the entire coast up to Diamond Head. We saw a beautiful sunset, and even a pod of Hawaiian Spinner dolphins on our way out! After the sun sets, you get a great view of the city lit up at night and a beautiful view of the moon as well.
Great selection of drinks, first one is free (additional alcohol for only $6), and it’s not your usual cheap beer/wine but actually a full bar with great spirit choices!!
The price of the tour is extremely fair and we definitely would recommend this specific charter to any friends and family!!!! Thanks Moana Catamaran for a great evening!

We participated as a family, and the kids, including myself, were really excited. I think opportunities to see the ocean floor are rare, so it was a valuable experience!

Overall, the sunset, the ocean, and the scenery of Waikiki were all amazing! Since it was an all-you-can-drink option, I enjoyed as much beer and wine as I wanted, which really lifted my spirits. I drank a lot of wine. There wasn't any information in Japanese, but maybe that was a good thing. It depends on the weather, but if it's nice, I think you'll create wonderful memories.
とにかく、夕陽、海、夕映のワイキキの街並み、
全てが最高でした‼️
飲み放題だったので、ビールやワインを好きなだけいただけ、気分も上がります。いっぱいワイン飲みました
日本語の案内はないですが、かえってそこが良かったかな。
お天気にもよるとは思いますが、もし良い天気なら最高の思い出ができると思います。

Swimming with the turtles was a blast and the sailing around Waikiki afterwards made for a super fun trip. Definitely will be back!

I was the only Japanese person on the English tour, but I had a great time.
The roads were well-maintained, so there were no issues, but be careful of the collapsed fence on the cliffside leading to the lighthouse and watch out for falling rocks from above. The guide advised against going there. Since I couldn't see the situation from above, I decided to go partway and planned to turn back if I judged it to be dangerous, but I was relieved that I was able to pass through safely. I think it’s a tour with plenty of time.
I appreciated being dropped off right next to the hotel on the way back. It was a place I would consider visiting again ❤️
英語ツアーで日本人は私だけでしたが、楽しめました。
道も整備されていて問題ないですが、ライトハウスに行く崖側は柵が崩壊しているのと上からの落石には十分注意した方がいいです。
ガイドさんは行かないで欲しいと言っていました。
上からは状況がわからなかったので途中まで行って危険と判断したら戻るつもりで自己責任で行きましたが通れたので良かったとホッとしてます。
時間も十分にあるツアーだと思います。
帰りはホテル横まで送ってもらえて感謝
また行ってもいいと思える場所でした❤️

From the moment we got on the boat, and until we made our way back onto the beach, we had an amazing time on this booze cruise. The views are perfect, the drinks were strong and tasty, and the seating was surprisingly comfy. Def need to give a shout out to the awesome captain and crew who were on it with taking pictures and offering drinks. Can't wait to go back!

My wife and I enjoyed the sunset cruise. Although it was an issue or two, they should try to be resolved the last time I took the cruise. I was able to be out on the outside on the deck at the sunset. Got to take some amazing pictures . This time we are in line for the buffet when is sunset. I think the time should be adjusted if the time is earlier when the sun sets. The whole purpose of a sunset cruise is to be able to watch the sunset and not be called to the buffet table to get your meal. My wife really enjoyed the Buffay food. She said it was very good as a picky eater. She ate a little bit of everything and enjoyed it.
I will verify the timing of other cruises before I would take the cruise again as the whole purpose was to be able to watch the sun set

We were a little apprehensive about getting a boat from the sandy beach, but it was all beautifully managed and we enjoyed a really good trip and a lovely sunset.
We were able to sit still and enjoy the drink and nibbles we had brought with us, while others enjoyed moving around onto the net to enjoy being really near the water. Even a little child under one year was there!
I would recommend this to anyone. A few steps through water and up into the boat led to a wonderful trip.

Pick-up was perfect, complimentary Mai Tai was lovely, but the sunset was hard to savour in the middle of queuing, collecting food and eating! The food was okay.
We chose the trip for the sunset and traditional dancing, but the dancing was evidently lovely BUT hard to see as the girls were not raised up and one needed to look round other people and tables.
We had a nice wander to the top of the boat which was great! BUT the ‘entertainment’ was done by a guitarist who couldn’t sing above a certain pitch and girls who followed his very out of tune singing. I suppose the other passengers got up and took part, as they felt that was expected but we found that part excruciating!
Overall not worth the money.

Just make sure to inform them that you are a party of two. The waves were great, and we were able to ride three waves right away, so our experience ended up being about 30 minutes, but it was very satisfying. Thank you!

This was my second time parasailing in Hawaii. This time, the wind was strong, and the boat was quite rocky. I think most of the other participants were newlyweds, but one of them got seasick and vomited. I also have a tendency to get motion sickness, so I took some anti-nausea medication before participating, and I didn't feel seasick at all. Anti-nausea medication is a must!

On the last day of our family trip to Hawaii, we decided to participate in this activity to create some memories. I had been on a catamaran a few times in Hawaii (with another company), but it was the first time for my husband and our 2-year-old daughter.
There aren't many activities available for children, so the fact that our daughter could join us for free was a deciding factor.
The meeting point was inside the Outrigger Reef. It was beautifully renovated, and the Holokai counter was easy to find. We got a little lost with the map provided, but the hotel staff kindly helped us.
From there, we walked to the boarding area near Halekulani.
Unfortunately, it was cloudy on the day of our trip, but just as the sun was setting, a gap in the clouds appeared, creating a truly wonderful memory.
Here are a few concerns that led to a four-star rating:
【Concerns】
- When we boarded, we were the only Japanese among about 30 people. It was fun to experience the international atmosphere, but the crew members did not speak Japanese, so those who are concerned about this should take note.
- The boat allows drinking. We chose not to drink, but the first drink is included at no extra charge! The international guests were drinking a lot and having a great time. Families with children or those who are not comfortable with drinking should be cautious.
- My husband and daughter got seasick. Depending on the weather, the waves were quite high and the boat rocked a bit. If you're prone to motion sickness, taking medication is a must! Also, please be aware that the ride lasts about an hour and a half.
Overall, it was a very enjoyable experience, and we could feel the fun atmosphere from everyone on board. I think it would be good to compare prices as catamaran rates vary by company.
ハワイへの家族旅行最終日に、思い出になればと思い参加を決めました。私はハワイで何度かカタマラン(別の会社主催の方)に乗ったことがありましたが、夫と2歳の娘は初めてでした。
娘が参加できるアクティビティがなかなかないので、子どもは料金がかからず一緒に楽しめることも決め手になりました。
集合場所はアウトリガーリーフ内。綺麗にリニューアルされており、ホロカイのカウンターもわかりやすかったです。案内の地図で少し迷いましたが、ホテルの方が丁寧に教えてくれました。
そこからハレクラニ横まで徒歩で移動して乗船します。
当日はあいにく曇りでしたが、日が沈む瞬間は雲の間ができ、すごく素敵な思い出となりました。
以下、少し懸念される点がありましたので星4つになります。
【懸念点】
・私達が乗船した際は、30人ほどのうち日本人は私達だけでした。海外の雰囲気を味わえて楽しかったですが、乗務員さんも日本語は話せない方なので気にする方はぜひ。
・飲酒可能な船です。私たちはお酒がのめないので選びませんでしたが、一杯目は追加料金なくお酒を楽しめます!海外の皆さんはたくさん飲んで大変盛り上がっていました。
子連れやお酒のノリが苦手な方は、注意が必要かもしれません。
・夫、娘は船酔いしてしまいました。天候にもよるかと思いますが、沖合は割と波も高く揺れました。苦手な方は酔い止め必須です!また、1時間半ほど乗るのでお気をつけください。
全体として非常に楽しく、海外の雰囲気を一緒に乗船されたみなさんからも感じられて、楽しいひとときとなりました!カタマラン船は料金も各社違うのでぜひ参考に比較いただくとよいかと思います。

Since I didn't want to go snorkeling, I thought about taking a boat out to sea, so I searched in the morning and boarded a boat around 2 PM that day. I didn't get to see a honu, but I did see a pod of dolphins! They swam very close to the side of the boat, and I was really happy! You can see Waikiki from the ocean side, and there's a chance to meet dolphins, so I would like to use this service again.

The driver explained how to ride in Japanese during the car ride to the horseback riding location. After arriving, we were able to ride the horses one by one, and another guide accompanied us from the side and behind during the walk, helping us when we stopped. It was my first time riding a horse, and the weather was nice, with the sea looking very beautiful, which was incredibly soothing. However, my horse didn't seem to get along well with me, as it stopped and wouldn't move several times, causing the people behind me to wait quite a bit. Overall, I had a very valuable experience this time, which became a great memory.
乗馬迄の車の中で運転手さんが日本語で乗り方を説明してくれました。到着後は順番に馬に乗ることが出来、散歩途中も横や後ろから別のガイドさんが着いてきてくれて立ち止まったりした時に誘導もしてくれました。初めての乗馬でしたが、お天気も良く海もとても綺麗で凄く癒されました。ただ馬との相性があまり良くなかったのか、何度も立ち止まり動かなくなってしまう子だったので後ろの人を凄い待たせてしまう事も多かったです。今回とても貴重な経験が出来たので良い思い出となりました。
