Your Guide to Waikiki Sails & Cruises
If you're looking for a fun way to explore Waikiki, then there is no better way than on a Waikiki sail or cruise! From snorkeling tours to day sails and sunset cruises, there's something for everyone.

Many of the snorkeling tours go to Turtle Canyon off the coast of Waikiki, so you can enjoy a beautiful underwater world surrounded by green sea turtles, or honu in Hawaiian, while you are out on the ocean. During the winter months, you might even be lucky enough to spot some whales in the distance, and if you take one of the morning sails, you'll likely be treated to a show by some of Hawaii's spinner dolphins. Don't forget to keep an eye out for that iconic view of Diamond Head, and have your phones and cameras ready for the best views of this amazing natural landmark.

For those looking for an extra special evening out, there are plenty of sunset dinner cruises and sunset booze cruises available too. The dinner cruises offer delicious food options that range from multi-course steak and lobster dinner, to a yummy plate of Hawaiian-style garlic shrimp from a popular local restaurant. The booze cruises will also often come with complimentary drinks for all guests, have the best drink prices in Hawaii, and for the boats without a bar, you can always BYOB and enjoy your favorite drinks while out on he best sails and cruises in Waikiki.
