Liko Kauai Snorkel Cruises - Na Pali Coast Boat Tour & Sea Cave Adventure

Awesome day!

Reviewed by: Love Kauai

Captain Rob was amazing! Found a calm place to snorkel and thrilled us with many cave entries! The NaPali coast is surreal. All the crew was friendly and informative about Hawaiian culture, activities and safety. Was a bit worried about sea sickness, but no problems for anyone in the boat!

Memories to Last a Lifetime!

Reviewed by: Chelsea

Matty and Mari were absolutely great! We went on the sunset whale watching tour and they made it such a fun and personalized experience! They answered all our questions, explained the different parts of the island that we could see from the ocean, and made it an overall great experience. We not only saw plenty of whales, but we also saw a shark too. 10 out of 10 recommend to anyone and everyone!

3世代11名だったのでチャーターでお世話になりました。
予約時点からメールでのやり取りがとても丁寧で安心できました。
当日はいいお天気でクジラもイルカの大群も海ガメも魚もたくさんみれて大満足でした。特にイルカの大群もは信じられないくらいいて感動しました。
ガイド兼ドライバーさん、船のキャプテンも親切でいるかを一生懸命探してくださいました。子供達はシュノーケルはできませんでしたがキャプテンに楽しませてもらったようです。バッグ付きのスナックは大人も子供も大喜びで、帰国後も皆学校や職場に持って行くそうです。本当にありがとうございました!

初めてホエールウォッチングに参加しました!
クルージングしながらお酒も飲めて景色も最高でした✨✨
クジラは少し遠くで潮を吹くところやテールを見ることができました!!
もう少し近くで観れると思っていましたが、自然の生き物の事なので、予想がつかないのも仕方がないな〜と思いつつ、雰囲気はとても良く楽しむことができました!!

船でのおトイレは綺麗なところがあまりなく、なかなか行きにくいですが、こちらの船は綺麗なトイレでお酒を飲んでも安心でした!
またいつか参加してみたいです!!

Whale watching with the best!

Reviewed by: Laura

Thank you guys for the amazing time! Would highly recommend this trip. We did see whales, beautiful views of paradise, some crap traps, and the site for the open shark dive. We loved the crew so much, we have now signed up for the shark dive! We can’t wait! The crew were fantastic, captain and skipper both knew and shared a ton of great information about the island. They took their time and were not in a rush. The sunset was also amazing. Could not have asked for a better trip!

We recently hired Aloha Blue Charters for a private charter in Maui for our family. This was a special trip to honor and carry out the final wishes of my parents.

サンドバー シュノーケリング貸切クルーズ グループ旅行にぴったり!ゆったりとしたカタマラン船でアレンジ自由自在!<10名まで/日本語クルー>

13名のプライベートのツアーにアレンジしてくださいました。

Reviewed by: Lily

12月末に祖父母、娘息子家族の総勢13名三世代で申し込みました。ツアーの10名との記載がありますが事前の問い合わせでやりとりし、プラス300ドルの13名の貸切の送迎バス、船をご用意いただきました。バスの運転手さん、船上のスタッフ(操縦士さん2人とシュノーケルのインストラクターの日本人女性えみさん)も非常に親切でした。船は少し揺れましたが船酔いはほとんどなく大丈夫でした。えみさんは見える景色の説明やサンドバーでの注意点、シュノーケルのマスクの付け方、コツなどを船のエンジン音にも負けずさわやかに聞き取りやすい声で的確に教えてくださいました。10歳2人はえみさんについて大人と同様に目一杯シュノーケルを楽しめました。色とりどりの魚、珊瑚礁、ウミガメもたくさん見ることができました。カメは水面から顔を出す姿や海底で寝ている姿など5-6匹見ることができました。6歳、5歳、2歳は眠くなってしまったり疲れてしまって途中で船に戻りましたが屋根のある船の日陰で海風に吹かれながら景色を楽しめました。70代60代の父母も自分たちのペースでサンドバーを歩いて楽しんだり、シュノーケリングをしたり、船の上で孫たちとゆっくりしたりそれぞれのペースで楽しめました。帰りもホテルまでバスで送っていただきとても楽しいツアーでした。選んでよかったです。ありがとうございました。

Our family (my wife, myself, our 3 sons and 2 daughters in law) had a great cruise on this private yacht. The crew was outstanding and looked after our every need.

Liko Kauai Snorkel Cruises - Na Pali Coast Boat Tour & Sea Cave Adventure

The views were amazing!

Reviewed by: Johnson Family

The boat ride was great- seeing the Na Pali coast from the Pacific was incredible. The tour guide was a fantastic guide, sharing stories about the history of Kaua’i , including her connections through her great grandparents. Learning about the land and history over time made a lasting impression. Hearing about the connections to movie settings was also cool. We encountered spinner dolphin pod and it was exciting to see so many surfacing and putting on a show. The snorkeling was Awesome, it was great how the boat had a specific location to secure to that was near the reef. Snorkeling was very organized and I felt safe. We saw many colored fish and even a sea turtle.

I appreciated the introduction before we started the tour and the guidance if we felt seasick. I was unfortunately one who experienced sea sickness about halfway through the trip, where we encountered the roughest water. The crew was compassionate and offered comforts. I felt better as we headed toward calmer waters and snorkeling location and was able to enjoy the snorkeling.

We had 5 in our traveling party and all were very impressed with the sights-totally worth it!

We really enjoyed this cruise! We went in Nov so the beginning of winter there. Waters were just starting to get a little rougher. No one in our group gets seasick so we had no issues but some others on the cruise that were prone to seasickness were struggling a little. The staff were all super friendly and shared a lot about the history along the coast, films that were shot there, and other recommendations in the area. Highly recommend!
