Makani Catamaran Waikiki Sunset Cocktail Cruise with Drinks & Transportation

Awesome sunset cruise!!

Reviewed by: Amanda

My husband and I chose to do this activity as part of our honeymoon after friends bought us a voucher for Hawaii activities. Although it was a little choppy going out (your fine if you stay out on the boat in the fresh air) we had the most amazing time!! The food was fantastic, the sunset was beautiful and the fireworks just topped off a perfect evening. We had so much fun meeting people and having a few drinks. Even if it's really hot make sure you take a jumper as it does get a bit chilly out on the ocean as the sun goes down. We would recommend this activity and the makani crew to anyone looking for this kind of activity!!!

I felt refreshed! It was really great. 気分は爽快!とってもよかったです。

Reviewed by: 好奇心旺盛な50代

We participated as three adults. In Guam, we couldn't join due to strong winds, so I was determined to experience it. I was able to fully enjoy the thrill of 150 meters. Looking at the deep blue sea and sky, I felt like a bird; even though it was a short five minutes, it was pleasant. I also appreciated the captain's friendliness. Everything was in English, and I didn't understand the content at all, but I could see the surrounding foreigners laughing, so I felt they must have been having a fun conversation.

At first, my husband wasn't very enthusiastic, but it seemed he enjoyed it the most. Next time, I want to challenge something even higher.

大人3人で参加しました。グアムでは、風が強いと参加ができなかったので、絶対に経験したいと思っていました。150mのスリルを存分味わうことができました。真っ青な海と空を眺め、鳥になった気分で、5分間という短い時間でいたが、心地よかったです。また、船長さんの気さくさにも好感がもてました。すべて英語で、全く内容がわからなかったのですが、まわりの外国のかたが笑って見えたので、きっと楽しいお話をしているのだろうと感じました。
最初は、乗り気でなかった夫ですが、一番気に入っいたようです。次回は、もっと高いものに挑戦したいと思います。

150m! 150m!

Reviewed by: sky

I experienced the 110m before, and this time I went for the 150m, and I absolutely recommend the 150m! You can go higher and enjoy it for a longer time! Also, you can land without getting wet at all, but I found it more fun to get splashed!

前に110mを体験し、今回150mにしたのですが
絶対150mがオススメです!
高く上がれるし時間も長く楽しめます!
あと、全く濡れずにランディングもできますが
水浴びた方が楽しかったです!

Husband wanted to go back the very next day to do it again

Reviewed by: Nikki Nguyen

The crew was friendly and it was a nice big boat with clean restrooms. The guys seemed like they love what they do so that helped it be a very nice trip. They caught a 140lb tuna. It was fun :) there was plenty of shade for my kids to nap :)

I felt like I became a bird. 鳥になった気分でした

Reviewed by: あきら

I was relieved that there was a shuttle from Waikiki, but no matter how long I waited, the trolley just wouldn't come (I waited for nearly 20 minutes)... In a panic, I thought I had to contact them in English, so I asked the hotel concierge to call for me. They said, "We are at the bus stop, but we can't see you, so we left." Apparently, they came to pick me up while I was away from the bus stop.

I was half resigned to the fact that I might not be able to participate, but they kindly sent a car to pick me up and changed me to the next departure. I am truly grateful for their kindness.

My friend has a fear of heights, but I somewhat forcefully made a reservation for this tour. When we went out to sea on the boat, put on the parachute, and took off from the boat, I was quite nervous at that moment. We climbed higher and higher. I couldn't stop trembling as I looked down, but I was surprised to see my friend, who is supposed to be afraid of heights, having so much fun and being so excited. After a while, I calmed down and was moved by the beauty of Waikiki Beach and Diamond Head from the sky.

It was very quiet up there without any wind, and it felt like I had become a bird. The blue horizon and sky were amazing! Although it cost a bit extra, I was glad I requested photo shooting. They quickly burned it onto a DVD and recorded videos, so I had a surprise enjoyment when I returned to Japan. They even captured the moment my feet touched the sea perfectly.

It's a pity I couldn't bring a waterproof camera up there. If I go to Hawaii again, I definitely want to participate in this company's tour. It was the best time, feeling like I had become a bird.

ワイキキから送迎があるので安心していたのですが、待てど暮せどトロリーが一向に来ない(20分近く待ちました)・・・焦った挙句電話しても英語とにかく連絡をしなくてはと思いホテルのコンシェルジュにお願いして電話してもらったら「今バス停にいますが姿が見えないので発射しました」とのことバス停を離れてる間に迎えに来たらしいのです。
もう参加できないのかと半ばあきらめていたのですが、車で迎えに来ていただき、次の便に変更していただきました。
ほんとに親切にしていただきありがたいかぎりです。
私の友人は高所恐怖症なのですが、半ば強引にこのツアーを予約しました。
ボートで沖まで出てパラシュートを装着しボートからテイクオフする瞬間結構ドキドキしていました。
ぐんぐん上って行きます。私は足元を見てしまい震えが止まりませんでしたが、高所恐怖症のはずの友人がとても楽しそうにはしゃいでいるのにびっくり・・しばらくすると私も気持ちが落ち着き、空からのワイキキビーチやダイヤモンドヘッドの美しさに感動しました。
風もなく上空はとても静かでまるで鳥になったかのようでした。
青く広がる水平線と空が最高!
少し料金はかかりますが写真撮影はお願いしてよかったです。DVDにすぐ焼いてもらって動画もとってくれていたので日本に帰ってからサプライズな楽しみがありました。
足が海につかる瞬間もばっちり撮れてました。
防水のカメラがあれば上空にもって行けたのに残念でした。
また、ハワイに行ったら是非この会社のツアーに参加したいです。
鳥になった気分を味わえて最高な時間でした。

It felt great!! 気持ち良かった!!

Reviewed by: にもな

I chose the highest altitude. I was able to float gently and enjoy a walk in the sky. Even though I'm not a big fan of heights, it felt nice. The boat was small, but perhaps because the time was short, I didn't get seasick. The shuttle service to and from the location was quite fast, which was a bit scary but refreshing. My Japanese was limited, but I was able to convey the important things. The boat mentioned that tips were included, so we didn't pay, but the participants from Europe and America were tipping, which left us a little confused about what to do.

1番高い高度を選びました。ふわっと浮き上がって空中散歩を楽しめました。
高いところはそんなに好きでない私でも気持ち良かったです。
船は小型でしたが時間が短いためか酔いませんでした。
行き帰りの送迎トロリーが速度ぶっ飛ばしだったので少し怖かったですが爽快でした。
日本語は片言程度でしたが大事なことは伝わりました。
チップは含まれていますと船に書いていたので、私たちは払いませんでしたが、欧米の参加者の方は払っていてどうすればいいのか少し迷いました。

海釣り体験 ホノルル沖でフィッシングクルーズ 大物狙いの本格海釣り!ベテランクルーのサポートで安心 釣り用具付き<混載/半日~1日/ケワロ湾>

Honeymoon ハネムーン

Reviewed by: おぶひ

I made a reservation based on my husband's only hope of going trolling. There were various options, but I chose this one because it was cheaper compared to others and had good reviews.

After participating, my impression is that knowing some English would have made it even more enjoyable. The crew members didn't speak Japanese, so they explained everything in fast-paced English. Fortunately, there was a considerate foreign participant who helped explain things clearly later on.

We needed to prepare our own drinks and food. I only brought one drink and a cereal bar, so I wished I had brought more.

There were five participants on our boat. First, we got on the boat and used cards to determine the order. When a fish bites, we reel it in according to that order. We set off and headed about an hour out to sea. The boat rocked quite a bit, so taking motion sickness medication is definitely recommended. While heading out, we did some bait fishing and caught two fish that seemed to be around 40 centimeters long. I was second in line, so I caught the second fish.

For the third catch, we hooked a marlin that was about 150 centimeters long. However, that was the end of it. My husband was fourth in line and didn't catch anything.

I don't expect to catch a big fish, but I wish they could ensure that all participants could catch something at least during the bait fishing. Spending nearly a whole day of our precious honeymoon on something uncertain for 28,000 yen... whether it's worth it varies from person to person, but I somehow enjoyed it, so I guess it was okay.

主人のトローリングがしたいとの唯一希望により、予約しました。色々なところがありましたが、こちらを選んだのは、他と比べて値段が安かったことと、口コミの評価がよかったから。

参加してみての感想は、まず英語が多少出来た方が更に楽しめただろうということ。乗組員の方は日本語なんて出来ないから、普通に早口の英語で説明されます。同乗した方の中に気を使ってくれる外国人の方がおられたので、後で分かりやすく説明してくれたので助かりました。
飲み物食べ物は各自で準備が必要でした。飲み物1本とシリアルバーしか持って行ってなかったので、もっと持っていけばよかったなと思いました。

今回私達の船には5人の参加者がいました。まず船にのりトランプを使って順番を決めます。竿に当たりがきたらその順番で釣り上げていくため。
出発してまず船で1時間程度沖に出ます。結構な揺れ加減なので酔い止めを飲んだ方が絶対にいーです。沖に出ながらベイト釣り。40センチぐらいのハマチらしき魚を2匹釣りました。私は順番が2番目だったので2匹目の魚を釣りました。
3匹目に150センチぐらいのカジキが釣れました。でも、それで終了。旦那は4番目だった為、何も釣り上げられず(^^;

大物を釣らせてとは言わないけれど、せめてベイト釣りで参加者全員が釣り上げられるようにしてくれたら、もっといーのになと思いました。
貴重なハネムーンの1日をほぼ使って、釣れるかどうかわからないことに28000円…する価値があるのかどーかは人それぞれだと思いますが、私は何だかんだ楽しめたので、まぁよかったかな(>_<)

Makani Catamaran Waikiki Sunset Cocktail Cruise with Drinks & Transportation

Catamaran sunset cruise with fireworks

Reviewed by: Jordon dann

I booked this cruise as a surprise for my girlfriend and she absolutely loved it! Every friday the Hilton hotel has a free fireworks show and this is a great way to view them and to make the evening that much more special. I would recommend this activity to couples but it is set up so anyone can enjoy.

Our catamaran cruise started off with their driver coming to pick us up. He was on time and very friendly. We arrived at the dock early and had our first look at the Makani. It was very clean and was smaller than all the other catamarans in the area which was exactly what I was looking for. The boat held roughly 30-40 people. The only complaint we had while waiting to board was nobody came to talk to us about what was going on. Our group stood there for half an hour and as other groups showed up, we then found out we had to redeem our tickets. By this time there was a large line but thankfully they got everyone through quickly. Before we left the dock, the captain went over the features of the boat, introduced the crew and went over everything we needed to know to keep us safe. Once out out on the water, the crew invited us to take part in helping run the ship with their supervision. I thought that was great to make the experience that much more personal. We sailed for an hour then they stopped the boat so we could have our dinner. It was a buffet style with plenty of food to go around. We then found our spot in the water over looking the Hilton. The fireworks started at 7:45 and lasted five minutes. It was a great show and they used quality fireworks that were exciting to watch.

Makani Catamaran Waikiki Sunset Cocktail Cruise with Drinks & Transportation

Dinner Cruise?

Reviewed by: Smith

Great idea - poor execution! It was a beautiful night and we were ready for a relaxing and delicious dinner cruise. Perhaps we misunderstood what was being offered. First, our pick up was scheduled for 4:10 pm but didn't arrive until after 4:45 pm. After signing in and another short wait, we were invited to board. Even though we knew this was on a catamaran, we thought there would be tables for each diner. This was not the case. Maximum guests (60 - 80) were crammed onto the vessel. This included some young children. Food was very good for the most part, but dinner was a "serve yourself buffet". Not the best option with children on a moving boat. Also, it was impossible to enjoy the meal with the catamaran moving at a fast pace, wind blowing aggressively, and no good place to sit while eating. We still enjoyed ourselves but the price was a bit high for the event. Perhaps just a sunset cocktail cruise would be better. Some drinks and delicious hors d'oeuvres. P.S. The sunset was magnificent!

Makani Catamaran Waikiki Sunset Cocktail Cruise with Drinks & Transportation

Underwhelming

Reviewed by: Jeff Chartier

Our family of 4 did a Thursday night cruise. The weather absolutely gorgeous, scenery spectacular! The crew were extremely capable and very pleasant. We like what was trying to be done, but possibly too much is trying to be attempted. The food was a little disappointing for what we paid. There was only one table to eat on, otherwise you had to eat on your lap. Fighting the boats movement, the wind and everyone else on board was a challenge.We also felt like portion control was a must as the food supply seemed to be limited. I would suggest maybe not doing a full dinner, but maybe drinks and appetizers, and maybe some live entertainment.Also maybe a little more staffing would be helpful. Overall I would give 2 and a half stars. I liked what was trying to be done, but a little refinement is in order. But hey its paradise, nothing is that bad.

Makani Catamaran Waikiki Sunset Cocktail Cruise with Drinks & Transportation

Dazzling Sunset Cruise

Reviewed by: webstersway

Wow, what an amazing cruise!!! The weather was perfect, the sunset was dazzling, and my wife was stunning. With the sun setting in the west, Diamond Head looming in the east, and just the wind in our sails, we couldn't have asked for a more memorable experience. To top things off, there was a rain shower on Diamond Head that resulted in a rainbow, absolutely gorgeous!!! The crew was great and the food was delicious. We were given 2 drink tickets each, my recommendation is to purchase the Makani insulated tumbler, twice the drink for only $8. We opted for the Makani signature High Tide, quite tasty. This was our second adventure on the Makani, both were awesome!!! Highly recommended. A special Thank You to Mikiko at Veltra for keeping me on track!!!

Challenging the 150m 150mに挑戦

Reviewed by: ひでまる

It was my first time parasailing, and it was super fun! We went on a small boat, so my partner got a bit seasick, but once we took off, it seemed like we were flying. While floating in the air, it felt like a dream, a really strange sensation. The local tour guides were all English speakers, but I could understand them through the nuances, which was great. They explained in English at the start that for $30, they would take photos with a DSLR, and for $40, they would shoot a video, so I requested the photos. Since no one else in my group requested them, I was really happy they took a lot of pictures (about 50!). They even included a bonus video of the splash when we hit the water, which I thought was a nice service!

初パラセイリングでしたが超たのしかったです!小型の船でいくので、相方が船酔いしていましたが飛んだらぶっ飛んだみたいです。上空で浮いているあいだは夢の中みたいな不思議な感覚でした。。 現地ツアーガイドさんはみんな英語でしたが、ニュアンスでわかるかんじだったのでよかったです。30ドルで一眼レフでの写真40ドルで動画の撮影を行ってもらえると出発時に英語で説明があったので、写真を頼みました。わたしが参加した回は他に誰も頼んでいなかったせいか、たくさん写真をとってくれてうれしかったです。(50枚くらい) 海面にボシャンするときの動画もオマケで入っていてサービスいいな~とおもいましたw

I feel refreshed. 気分爽快です

Reviewed by: なっき

There is a pickup service from Waikiki that will take you to your hotel or the nearest hotel! However, since other tour buses also stop at the pickup location, I think it would be reassuring to check the appearance of the shuttle bus on the website in advance.

Also, the boat used for parasailing is small and can be quite bumpy. I was fine, but some people in the same group, a parent and child, looked exhausted, so I think it's a good idea for those who are not confident to take motion sickness medication beforehand.

As for the parasailing itself, I chose the height of 150 meters. At first, I was anxious, but once I was flying, I didn't feel scared, probably because the ocean was below me. My wife and I talked about how beautiful the blue sky and the streets of Waikiki were, and we had fun with the crew as they playfully shook the ropes (just a little mischief), and before we knew it, it was over.

The flying time is about 10 minutes, which is short, but since I did it when I was getting bored with sea and mountain activities in Hawaii, I really enjoyed it.

One disappointing moment was when we disembarked after the activity. I was excited from flying in the sky and asked the crew if we could take a photo together, but they responded with a request for a tip, which quickly brought me back down to earth. I couldn't help but think about the cultural difference and why they would ask for that at that moment.

ワイキキから送迎があり、宿泊ホテルか最寄りのホテルまで来てくれます!
但し、送迎場所には他のツアーのバスなども止まっている為、事前にホームページより送迎バスの外見を調べておくと安心だと思います。

また、パラセイリングを行う船は小型で揺れが大きく、私は大丈夫だったのですが、同じグループの方は親子でぐったりしていたので、自信のない方は酔い止めを飲んで置くと良いと思います。

パラセイリング自体は高さ150mを選択し、最初は不安でしたが、飛んでみると下が海のお陰なのか恐怖は感じず、嫁と空の青さやワイキキの街並みが綺麗だねぇと話したり、クルーの人にロープを揺らされて盛り上がったり(⬅︎イタズラ)してるとあっという間に終わってしまいました。

飛んでる時間は10分程度と短いですが、ハワイで海や山のアクティビティに飽きて来た時に行ったので、凄く楽しめました。

残念だったのは、アクティビティ後に下船した際、空を飛んでテンションが上がっており、クルーに一緒に写真撮りましょうと声をかけた所、チップと返答され一気に醒めてしまった事で、文化の違いとはいえこのタイミングで要求するかと思ってしまいました。

Makani Catamaran Waikiki Sunset Cocktail Cruise with Drinks & Transportation

Perfect way to end our week in Oahu!

Reviewed by: K Hubbard

We wanted to do something special to end our week in Oahu and after reading some excellent reviews we booked this cruise. We booked it the same day with only about 4 hours before it departed...the phone staff were so helpful and patient as we selected a cruise. We had some challenges accessing the website to print our voucher but the reservation staff was so patient and assured us there would be no problem.

We used the pick up option and the driver was so pleasant and helpful, he made us feel like we had known each other forever.


Every member of the staff we came in contact with from reservation, shuttle driver, cruise staff..everyone made us feel so welcome and didn't hesitate to extend that extra effort!

The cruise was amazing with views of Diamond Head and Oahu..music was enjoyable and the food was delicious! The Cruise was a perfect amount of time as It is still early enough to continue your evening when you return.

We would definitely recommend this cruise and look forward to sailing with them again!

It was the perfect, romantic end to our amazing week in Oahu!

It was surprisingly okay! 意外と大丈夫でした!

Reviewed by: aki

The hotel sent a trolley to pick us up (10 minutes earlier than the scheduled time). Once we boarded, we were instructed to sign a consent form right away. When we arrived at the reception and showed our voucher, we received our tickets.

The only other passengers on the same boat were a pair of girls, a group of three men and one woman, and a mother with a boy who looked to be in elementary school; we were the only Japanese people.

We set off a little way out to sea. It was quite rocky, but since I had taken motion sickness medication 30 minutes prior, I had no issues at all. We jumped two at a time. Without standing up, we shifted slightly in our seats, and when it was our turn, we were fitted with harnesses and life jackets and moved to the back of the boat.

We were cautioned not to stretch our legs while flying. As we gradually ascended, it felt more like being on a swing, so it wasn't very scary. Instead, I was captivated by the deep blue of the sea and the beautiful scenery.

The instructions mentioned that if we wanted the staff to take photos, we should ask, but I missed the timing and didn't get to request it (there was no pressure to buy). I hoped for a dry landing, but I ended up getting quite wet.

Although it was a tour my husband wanted to participate in, I’m glad I took the challenge.

ホテルにはトロリーが迎えに来てくれました。(時間よりも10分早かったです。)
乗車するとすぐに同意書にサインするようにとのことでした。
受付に着いてバウチャーを見せるとチケットをもらいました。
同じ船に乗ったのは2人組の女の子、男3女1のグループ、お母さんと小学生くらいの男の子で、日本人は私たちだけでした。
船に乗って少し沖に出ました。結構揺れましたが、30分前に酔い止めを飲んでいたので、全く問題ありませんでした。
1度に2人ずつ飛びました。立ち上がらずに座ったまま少しずつずれて、私たちの番になるとハーネスとライフジャケットをつけてもらい、船の後方に移動しました。
飛んでいるときは足を伸ばさないようにと注意されました。
少しずつ高くなっていくので、ブランコに乗っているようであまり怖くありませんでした。
それよりも海の青さと景色のよさに目を奪われました。
写真をスタッフに取ってほしい場合は言うようにと説明書に書いてありましたが、タイミングがわからずに頼みそびれてしまいました。(=押し売りはありません。)
ドライランディングを希望しましたが、結構濡れました。

Great. Would recommend to anyone. Good value

Reviewed by: Ms Julie E King

My friend and her Mother from Australia joined up with me and we went on this cruise to celebrate her Mother's 80th Birthday. My friend is a vegetarian and she was a little concerned that there would not be anything she liked from the buffet. She was pleasantly surprised. The food was delicious (and hot) and there were sufficient dishes that she could enjoy. Drinks were also good not watered down and surprisingly quite a good variety to choose from. We had two drinks each which were included in the price. The ship was very clean with plenty of room for everyone to move around freely either inside or outside. We left on time and the crew were really nice and also quite funny giving the safety talk. I was very glad we had chosen this particular Sunset Cruise as was very enjoyable and we were pleased with the level of service provided to us. The weather was perfect and the sunset amazing. WE will recommend this cruise to our friends in Australia and in California as it is good value for a very good price.+l y

Enjoying the view of Waikiki all to myself. ワイキキの景色を独り占め

Reviewed by: Makken

First of all, a pickup came to the trolley stop near the hotel, making it easy to get around, and they also dropped us back at the hotel. It was my first experience with parasailing, and I felt a bit anxious at first, but once I was up in the air, all my worries disappeared. The view from above was incredibly beautiful, and the wind while being pulled by the boat was amazing. I could see Waikiki, downtown, and Diamond Head all at once, and the feeling of having that stunning view all to myself was truly luxurious! The parasailing lasted about 10 minutes, and there were two handsome guys on the boat who made the atmosphere really fun, which made it a great experience. They also took photos during the parasailing and on the boat, and although it cost $30, I was able to capture those wonderful memories. This experience made me want to try various water activities like parasailing again when I come back to Hawaii! Thank you very much!

まずは、ホテル近くのトローリー乗り場までお迎えが来てくれたので、簡単に移動ができ、帰りもホテルまで送ってくれました。パラセーリングの経験は初めてで、最初は不安な気持ちもありましたが、いざ自分が上空へ行ってみると不安だった気持ちは全くなくなりました。上空からの景色はとても綺麗で船に引っ張られながら感じる風は最高でした。また、景色はワイキキやダウンタウン、ダイヤモンドヘッドまでが一望でき、完全に独り占め状態の景色はすごく豪華なものでした!!約10分くらいのパラセーリングですが、船の上ではイケメン2人が楽しく雰囲気を盛り上げてくれ、とても楽しかったです。また、パラセーリング中や船の上での写真も撮ってくれ、30ドルのお金はかかるものの、楽しい思い出を形に残すこともできました。次にハワイへ来た時にもパラセーリングなどの海でのアクティビティーをいろいろとしたくなるような体験ができました!!ありがとうございました!!

Parasailing was great, but... パラセーリングは良かったけど、、、

Reviewed by: たむたむ

I went parasailing yesterday! It was my second time in two years, and the height was thrilling and fun. The crew was also very lively!

However, they were 20 minutes late picking us up, and we had to wait about 30 minutes after arriving.

So, if you want to book another activity or restaurant next time, I think it's best to allow for some extra time.

昨日パラセーリングしてきました!
2年振り2回目ということで高さもあり楽しかったです。
クルーの方もノリが良かったです!

しかし、迎えに来るのが20分遅かったり、着いてからも30分くらい待ちました。

なので、次に別のアクティビティーやレストランを予約したい場合は、ある程度余裕を持った方がいいと思います。

Makani Catamaran Waikiki Sunset Cocktail Cruise with Drinks & Transportation

my birthday sunset cruise

Reviewed by: Jennifer and paul

My husband booked this for me for my birthday. The stuff was very friendly and funny and very nice. The buffet style dinner was very good. The two drink voucher included alcoholic drinks and the Mai Tais were super yummy. They gave you a option of purchasing a large souvenir cup for $8.00 which you may use your drink ticket to refill rather than the small plastic cup. Way better deal.. We sailed around diamond head and then back to Waikiki. The sun set was amazing.There was nothing to complain about at all on this boat . It was definitely worth it and i would do it again on my next trip to the island .This is a must do so my sure it's on your list of things to do list . If you're looking to surprise someone for their birthday or even pop the question this is a perfect way to do it I highly recommend it.

  • absolutely breathtaking

  • a birthday night that I will always remember

There is a pickup service from Waikiki Beach.
After checking in, you board the boat, listen to the instructor's explanation, and put on your life jacket.
As you rise quickly, the ocean spreads out below you!
If you don't want to get wet, you can return without getting wet.
It was so much fun and went by in no time!

Even if you're scared of heights, surprisingly, it's okay! 高いところ怖くても意外に大丈夫!

Reviewed by: Yukimi Iida

I have a slight fear of heights, and I was quite nervous before getting on. However, the cool instructor explained everything carefully, which made me feel a bit more at ease. The explanation was in English, but there were parts that were easy to understand in Japanese.

The day of the experience was relatively windy, but the boat didn't sway much. After putting on the gear, I scooted to the back of the boat, and we were all set! Once we lifted off, it surprisingly wasn't that scary, and I was able to enjoy the view!

While we were up there, I felt like a bird♪ Since we went up in pairs, it’s perfect for couples! You can see the high-rise buildings of the hotel district all the way to Diamond Head, and the blue horizon and sky were absolutely beautiful!

At times, there was a little trick where my feet would touch the sea, but it actually felt nice♪ If you don’t want to get wet, just let them know before you go up, and they’ll make sure you stay dry from start to finish.

I didn’t have the courage to let go, so I left my waterproof camera on the boat, but I regretted a bit that I could have taken pictures when we were up there... (laughs) The instructor took photos with a zoom lens, and there’s also an option to have a video taken. Both require an additional fee to receive the data. While waiting on the boat, I wasn’t bored at all; I watched the experiences of other participants and enjoyed the scenery.

Overall, it was a very satisfying program!

プチ高所恐怖症で、乗る前は結構ドキドキしていました。ですが、インストラクターのかっこいいお兄さんに丁寧に説明してもらい、ちょっと安心。説明は英語でしたが、ところどころ日本語で分かりやすかったです。
体験した日は比較的、風が強い日でしたが、ボートはそんなに揺れませんでした。装備を装着し、ボートの後ろの方へ座りながらずりずり移動し、準備万端!ふわっと上がって、上がってしまったら意外に怖くなく、景色も楽しめました!
上がっている間は鳥になった気分♪ペアで上がるのでカップルにはぴったりですよ!ホテルの高い建物が並ぶビル群からダイヤモンドヘッドまでが一望でき、青く広がる水平線と空がとてもキレイでした!
時々、足が海につかるイタズラ?をされましたが、それすら気持ちいい♪濡れたくない人は上がる前に言っておけば、始めから最後まで濡れないようにしてくれます。
私は手を離す勇気がなかったので、防水のカメラをボートにおいて体験しましたが、上がった時に頑張れば写真撮れたな···とちょっと後悔(笑)インストラクターのお兄さんが望遠で写真撮ってくれますし、さらにオプションでビデオも撮れます。どちらもデータをもらうのに別料金が必要ですが。ボートで待っている間も、他の参加者の体験見たり、景色を眺めたりで退屈しませんでした。
こんな感じで、体験して大満足のプログラムでした!

It was a wonderful firework cruise!

Reviewed by: koun

It was a special Friday night! We sailed all the way to the diamond head and came back to around Waikiki and stayed in the best spot for the firework. The firework together with the view of Honolulu seen from the sea was exquisite!
There was nothing to complain about the boat trip - the boat was clean and had enough space for everybody to enjoy the ocean view and the wind. The drink and food served was good, and the crews were very very friendly.
The boarding time was about 3 hours which felt perfect for me.
Some people didn't feel good because of sea sick, and I regretted not to having brought wind breaker - so prepare those for your own sake.

Can you ride this much? こんなに乗れるの?

Reviewed by: yu3in

At first, I thought there were about 50 people on board. There were only us and one other group of Japanese people. There wasn't any special event, but the food was delicious, and we got to see Diamond Head, surfers, the sunset, and since we went on a Friday, we also saw the Hilton fireworks. It was really great! Initially, I had booked a different tour, but it got canceled when we entered the dry dock, so I chose this tour instead. I highly recommend it and plan to go again next year.

最初思いましたが、結構50人位乗っていたような?気がします。、
日本人は私たちともう1組のみでした~
何か催しものがあるわけではないのですが、ご飯もおいしかったし、ダイヤモンドヘッド、サーフィンする人たち、夕日、さらに、金曜日に行ったのでヒルトンの花火も見れたし~本当によかったです!
最初は実は別のツアーを予約していましたが、ドライドックに入るとキャンセルになり
こちらのツアーにしましたが、おすすめだし、来年も行こうと思います。

Makani Catamaran Waikiki Sunset Cocktail Cruise with Drinks & Transportation

"There is only limited amounts of food to go around for everyone, and only one cookie each"

Reviewed by: Jewels

Operating a similar business on a neighbor island, it was clear the crew was burnt out on tourists. Too many customers for two crew and a captain. Waiting in line around 15 minutes for a drink to be made by the one crew member that had experience behind the bar was completely unacceptable. For over 40 customers to have one bartender and one deckhand that stood around looking pretty while the poor bartender served the drinks and even had to shut down the bar to prepare the food while the other deckhand was nowhere to be found. And his famous quote of the evening to make us feel like we were costing the company money to be out on the water was as follows "there is only limited amount of food to go around for everyone, and typically only one cookie per person." While they nickel and dime everyone for 2 small servings of alcohol/drink. Regarding the food it was limited selection with a pasta salad, one chicken, one beef, rice, an unappetizing tofu wrap, and one cookie. Also, there is limited table seating. Truly there is only space for 8 to 12 people to eat with a table, so it can be difficult to eat if you are sitting on the floor and it is choppy/wavy.

Great time

Reviewed by: Henry Le

Upon arrival at the harbor the Malabo boat appeared a bit small for the size of the group. However once we boarded there was plenty of room to sit inside as well as the option to chill on deck or even sunbathe. The staff was very friendly and funny, and were very knowledgable about the islands. We were very fortunate to have been able to spot a few whales in the water during the cruise even though whale season had just ended. The catered food was served buffet style and included teriyaki chicken, pasta salad, beef and broccoli, tofu wraps, and delicious egg rolls! The free drink vouchers included alcoholic drinks and their mai tais were super good!! They give the option of purchasing a large souvenir cup for $8 which you may use your free drink ticket to refill rather than the small plastic cups. The overall cruise lasted for approximately 2 hours, with the sun setting right as we were headed back to the harbor. Overall a great experience, especially for the price. Definitely worth it!!

Makani Catamaran Waikiki Sunset Cocktail Cruise with Drinks & Transportation

The sail that was a breath of fresh air..

Reviewed by: Craig Stempowicz

The evening before the sail, the weather was nice, not too hot and no chill in the air. We chatted a little with the Bartender and the First mate before the sailing. There were a few clouds in the sky, but nothing to worry about. We boarded the vessel with excitement and anticipation. This was my first time on a Catamaran boat, so I was interested in front of the boat, where they had the mesh/strapping on the floor.

We started out into the sea, and for me this was the first time venturing on a boat onto the sea. We moved away from the shores, and stared out to the open waters. The wind blowing against my face in the open waters gave me a sense of relaxation and peace. I was eager to try sitting on the mesh netting, to feel the spray of the ocean against my legs. That too had a sense of peace, just relaxing on the mesh. But to my surprise, from the boat hitting against the waves, a blast of ocean water just covered my body.
Sailing along the ocean waters, I was able to get a better view of the mainland of the Island. The mountains in the background were priceless to see. What was even more interesting is to see how the clouds just kept hovering over the mountains. As we sailed, the aura of just standing on the deck, the fresh air that took place made the voyage a pleasant one. The dinner was hot buffet, with enough food categories to make it easily appetizing for every individual. I am sucker for chocolate chip cookies, so I engaged a little more into those.
As sunset was coming upon us and the view all around us just magnificent, I took advantage of the opportunity. I used the scenery and different parts of the boat to give the image of a picturesque life of being free. Now there were clouds in the sky at this time, but I was able to use the scenery of the sunset to my advantage, standing on the furthest point of the boat, looking out into the sunset.

  • Sunset in the Background

  • Enjoying the View

  • Chill'n on the mesh!!

  • View of the mainland

Please try it at least once. 1度体験してみてください。

Reviewed by: ハワイアン

In a word, it was so much fun that I want to experience it again. We went up to a height of 150 meters, which was quite high, and the view was beautiful. They will burn the photos onto a CD for $30, and I think it's worth buying. We were worried about theft and didn't bring any money, but there were other Japanese groups there, so theft probably isn't a concern. Definitely give it a try!

一言で言うともう一度体験したいくらい楽しかったです。150mの高さにしたのですが結構高く景色も綺麗でした。写真を$30でCDに焼いてくれますが、これは買ったほうがいいと思います。私たちは盗難が怖くお金を持参しなかったのですが、他の日本人のグループの方もいて盗難とかはおそらく心配なさそです。是非体験してみてください、
