I wouldn’t go again.

It was good, but I wouldn’t go again. I thought we signed up for a luao, a nice dinner, and a bigger boat that wouldn’t roll as much. This had a small take out dinner, dance music that felt like we were at the bar and the workers pushed for you to drink alcohol. In other words, this trip wasn’t attended to go as a family trip.

Besides the expectations going in - it was good, just wouldn’t go again. That’s not our scene.

Great Fireworks Cruise

Reviewed by: Brad S, 2023/06/03

My wife and I had a great time on the cruise. The weather was pleasant and the fireworks and the views of the city at night were spectacular. The food was good and the drinks were very good. The sailboat was clean and comfortable. We both felt that the captain and crew did a really nice job. We would do it again if we if we ever go to Oahu.

Sunset + City lights + Fireworks

Reviewed by: Yes to Hawaii, 2022/09/29

LOVED this catamaran! I had been on this same catamaran previously for their Turtle Canyon snorkel cruise so I knew I would like the boat. I liked that the boat check-in was here in Waikiki at the Hilton Village making it super convenient. This saves some transit time from going to some of the farther harbors (i.e. Kewalo Basin Harbor, Honolulu Harbor, etc.). We spent the best day just hanging out at the beach then just walked over to the Port Hilton kiosk to check-in.

I also liked the later departure time than most other sunset cruises so we could have a full beach day and still have time to hop on the catamaran. The dinner was a smaller portion prepackaged & more like appetizers than a full-on dinner. The drinks were tasty & buying more beyond the 2 included was $2/each - not a bad bargain. Since we were on the Hilton's pier, we were super close to the fireworks and were coming into the Port Hilton just as the fireworks were going off.

If you get cold easily, I would recommend packing a windbreaker or light sweater. It doesn't get cold here but it does get VERY BREEZY on the water at night once the sun goes down. I had a super light windbreaker which I didn't actually have to even use until about 1.5 hours into the cruise.

Overall, great cruise! So much fun!

  • Gorgeous view from the water!

From the moment our captain greeted us we knew this was going to be a fun cruise. The staff was wonderfully accommodating, the views/fireworks were beautiful. We would definitely do this again!

I cannot begin to tell you how great this cruise was! We went for my birthday. We had great food and drinks as well as a superior crew! The music felt like it was custom ordered.
Nick, Mash and Brad were terrific!
Do not miss an opportunity to take this trip!

Great Experience

Reviewed by: JtMla, 2019/06/19

We have a lovely trip. The crew was awesome. They are fun, funny, helpful, attentive and full of aloha spirit.
The food...not gourmet but the adult beverages made up for it!

A fun way to see Waikiki and the fireworks

Reviewed by: Valorie C., 2017/11/07

As residents of Honolulu, we have a lot of houseguests, and we always offer to take them on the sunset & Friday fireworks dinner sail. It's a fun way to see Waikiki and watch the fireworks. The food and beverages are tasty and plentiful, and the crew is very friendly. We never tire of it!

The experience was amazing and one of a kind! It definitely exceeded my expectations. My girlfriend and I are very excited to do this again some time soon.

What an amazing night!

Reviewed by: Ms. Rosie, 2011/06/19

I took my sister on this sail last night..and this is by far the best sail (tour wise) this island has to offer. Tropical winds, beautiful deep blue ocean and amazing hawaiian coastal scenery.

Crew on-board both the Spirit of Aloha and Honi Olani are superb and exceed your service expectations. Fortunately, for the adult beverage people, this became an Open bar sail (Beer is usually $1 and mixed drinks are $2) but this is because the boat departed late.

No one comes on-board to get drunk or rowdy..we were all in silent agreement to enjoy our drinks, enjoy our scrumptious dinner and have a wonderful time.. everyone on-board did just that.

Everyone who boarded the vessel were strangers, but we all became friends by the end of the night. Thank You Hawai' Nautical for a wonderful evening of good food, drinks, friendly conversations and laughter.
