My friend and I booked the booze cruise to get a sunset vibe on the water. The vessel was as expected and the crew was good. Unfortunately, there was a huge party on board that took up all occupancy, with the exception of my friend and I. With everyone knowing one another, there was constant conversation over us and people crossing/crowding our space to get to others in their party. It would probably make best sense for large parties like that to have to reserve the entire vessel occupancy. This wouldn’t deter us from booking again, but it might be helpful in putting smaller parties at ease.

I've done this before when I did a solo trip and I wanted my family to experience it because it was so much fun.
We wanted to schedule a private catamaran at first but it wasn't in everyone's budget so we all bought individual tickets. Our group size was 16 people and lucky enough we were had the catamaran all to ourselves. The crew was amazing and we had such a great time. My family loved it and would definitely do again.

Had a beautuful evening with a mai tai in hand it became fun. Seeing Diamond head from the ocean was spectacular and the cruise back ended up being whale watching and watching the sun set with sailboats in the foreground for a post card ending.
JJ, Amos and corrine made a great crew

So much fun! The guys that worked there were very helpful and were also fun. They played music and would stop to show us some whales. My family and I had a great time! They even took a group picture of my whole family in that boat.

It was a nice experience, but could've been better if it didn't rain.
It was pouring rain when we first arrived, and there wasn't enough seating inside for all the guests. We couldn't enjoy the nice ocean view because it was too cold to be outside, so we were stuck inside the entire time.
I wish they would've rescheduled the boat ride due to the rain.
The food itself was okay, nothing spectacular.

The boat was nice. The nature expert was very informative and had tons of bad dad jokes. We looked for over an hour before we finally caught sight of the whales. We were pretty far away so we couldn't see them too close. We only stayed for about 10 minutes before heading back, since we were already running late. I'm just glad the trip wasn't for naught.

I booked this Waikiki catamaran cruise for myself and 2 others and it was the highlight of our entire trip! Booking was easy and affordable. The boat is very easy to find on the Waikiki beach. The staff was amazing, so friendly, and made our experience so much fun, helping us take pictures and playing great music.
The highlight of our ride was seeing a huge whale breach about 8 times out in the water!
I would definitely recommend this experience to anyone visiting Honolulu!

There are many breathtaking attractions and stunning tours on Waikiki. NOTHING is better than experiencing the beauty of Hawaii and it's wildlife than from the water - and the Star of Honolulu does it, like no other! Of course, the hope and draw of seeing whales is what brought us to this tour; however, truly, what makes this journey unforgettable is, in fact, the journey!
The boat ride, itself, is nothing short of magical. From the enchantment of rolling out of peer to the unreal experience of being on the ocean, looking towards our hotel from the perception of the sea is nothing we will soon forget! The crew were exceptional at being clear on instructions and protocols, which is appreciated - but truly what dazzled us impressed was how genuinely friendly and eager to help the crew was! I am disabled; the crew did an incredible job helping me and making sure I was alright!
The naturalist on board was great too! He was personable, knowledgeable, and open to questions, without being pushy. He enhanced the trip so much, and ticked our funny bone with his hilarious whale dad jokes!
Finally, seeing whales and dolphins in their own world took everyone's breath away! This was, without a doubt, the icing on the cake! We can honestly say, going on this adventure with the Star of Honolulu was the best and most memorable part of our honeymoon! Four of our biggest thumbs up for this amazing life experience; our biggest thanks to the Star of Honolulu!

I had my granddaughter as my companion and we so enjoyed the experience. The food was excellent! Wow a whole lobster which was such a pleasant surprise as I thought it might just be the tail. LOL. The serivice, the entertainment and overall experience will last me the rest of my life. That is coming from this 80 year-old-lady who hopes she has many more years left. Going to Hawaii was a life-long dream and I finally made it.. This sunset cruise topped off my whole trip experience. Have been telling anyone I meet who mentions going to Honolulu I emphatically tell them to take this sunset cruise.
Hugs to all of you.

Loved the show, fruit & cheese and cocktails. The was regular, not very tasty and I expected a real juicy steak not beef tenderloins and the salad could’ve been more than 3 pieces of romaine lettuce. Overall, the cruise was a lot of fun. We really enjoyed ourselves.

Moana sailing is a straight vibe along with their service to our preferred BYOB cruise. Entry was smooth with friendly staff to help with setting a great sail during golden hour near diamond head. I would not skip out experience additional whale watching alongside this blue coastal waters (if your lucky). Bring a pack of claws and your friends into one of the best water rides this side of the Pacific.

My friends and I booked this as a fun way to celebrate our first full day in Honolulu and to take an official photo to share the news of our engagement! We had a wonderful time, and the captain and the crew took great photos and had an awesome sense of humor. We were able to bring our own drinks, got a great sunset, and we even saw whales in the distance! The best part about it was that it wasn't that crowded, so we were able to move around easily and have enough space to be comfortable.
We loved it so much that we booked it again for the next night (with another friend who arrived that afternoon). I'd definitely recommend bringing a bathing suit in case you want to swim, as some people on our trip had a great time jumping in the water!
Thank you to everyone who made the trip so great!
