Captain Austin and Kevin did a wonderful job helping us scatter our parents ashes. The day was perfect. Wonderful sunset. Great views. And Austin even hand picked the flowers that we scattered over the ashes. It made a somber activity a wonderful memory. Thank you!

We had a very special sunset cruise on the evening of November 3rd onboard the Makani Catamaran! I think we ended up with 22 in our Navy reunion group and it was the last of four events we had this weekend. Our crew was very professional and friendly. It was a smooth cruise from start to finish. The guys are great bartenders and my Mai Tai was outstanding! The views of Honolulu, Diamond Head and the sunset were amazing! I would strongly recommend this private cruise to any group of 20 to 49 people. Thanks Captain C for an amazing experience!

We had the BEST time on our Ko Olina Ocean Adventures Dolphin & Snorkel Private Charter on October 10th!! We did the 3-hour private charter. We had a group of 25, all family, visiting Oahu for our wedding celebration and had booked this cruise for a little pre-wedding fun. Well, the cruise was beyond our expectations. We had the best time cruising around and snorkeling. We snorkeled and saw dolphins, sea turtles, and got to feed the fish. We had several kids under age 5 and they were able to accommodate us all. The crew was absolutely amazing. They took care of everyone’s needs, made us feel special, and created a super fun environment, all the while making sure we were safe. The food and drinks were also amazing!! Mine and my husband’s families cannot stop raving about the cruise and how amazing it was. It was also suitable for all ages, which was great, as we had six kids under 5. Also, booking this cruise through VELTRA was a breeze. They were so helpful and answered all my questions. Stop your searching and book this cruise, you will not regret it. I could not recommend this enough!! Thank you to the team for making this day so special for us and our family!!

When looking at activities for our honeymoon, we were definitely looking for an on the water experience. There are lots of options in regards to sunset or fireworks(every friday) but most of them seemed to include having to be on a boat with many other families. While we are not opposed to spending time with strangers and getting to meet people, we really wanted to have a "next level" experience where we had pictures to share and memories to make.
Pau Hana sailing delivered on every single level. Captain Austin made sure our experience was one to remember. He helped us take pictures and was an absolute gem to spend two hours with.
Considering the pricing to be on our own private charter was only slightly more than being on one with tons of other families, there was absolutely no downside. I cannot recommend Pau hana sailing enough.
When we come back for an anniversary we will absolutely be booking again. Mahalo!
Yay, yay, yay! Iʻm so glad to hear you had the best best time and mahalo for such a wonderful review. We are so happy that we can provide this opportunity for people coming to visit Oahu. Congrats newlyweds! We hope we have the opportunity to host you for your 1-yr. A hui hou! Mariah

親子3世代9名の家族旅行でチャーターしました。
2時間コースで申し込みましたが、船上でのんびりしたり食事をすることができ、丁度良い時間でした。
ただ、船上での食事を長めにとる場合は、もう少し長いコースの方がよいかもしれません。
テイクアウトした食事や飲み物を持参して乗り込みましたが、カトラリー類は十分用意されていましたし、冷たい飲料水の提供もあり助かりました。
クーラーボックスも設置されているので、飲み物やフルーツなどは冷やしておくこともできます。
トイレは2か所ありました。
ベビーカーも積み込むことができました。
使用してはいませんが、電子レンジ(オーブン?!)もありました。
船上からはワイキキやダイヤモンドヘッドを見ることができます。
特に屋外で寝転がりながらパノラマビューを見ながら過ごす時間は最高でした!
船は出発時刻の15分くらい前に桟橋にやってきました。
桟橋付近にはターミナルのような待つ場所がないので、あまり早めに行かない方がいいかもしれません。
Mahalo for such a nice review! It looks like you had a beautiful day out on the water. We hope to see you again soon. Mahalo, Mariah

The boat crew was extremely helpful and nice. My group of friends and I had a great time hanging out on the boat and watching the sunset. I would recommend booking a private catamaran like this one if you have a larger group and you want a more intimate setting. Will definitely do this again the next time I'm in Hawaii!

We got the private boat and did the sandbar tour & I can’t recommend this enough! We played at the sandbar, toured the waters and got to see turtles & manta rays! Captain Jeff was helpful, fun & informative, the snacks were tasty and the boat was clean and in great condition. Do this tour!! You won’t regret it! It was the highlight of our trip and the best excursion I have ever done in Hawaii! My husband enjoyed it so much he wanted to do it again but we couldn’t book during the rest of our stay because they were sold out!.
Thank you for choosing Captain Bruce. It is amazing to know that the customer wanted to join our tour again during the stay. Your words made our day! We appreciated your recommendation and highlighting our Captain Jeff!
We're sorry we couldn't accommodate another tour during your stay due to high demand. We hope to welcome you back to Hawaii and on board our tours again in the future.

The staff was great, however unfortunately, due to other people drinking on the boat & a lot of motion sickness, there was a lot of throw up Incidents which caused the whole ride to be unpleasant and rather disgusting. Not to mention, we had to takeoff our shoes so I hope I didn’t step on anything…. When I originally booked, I noticed drinks and appetizers would be provided, but there is only one option to choose from(food).
If you book, make sure you take some dramamine, even if you don’t think you have motion sickness.
The good news is that we got to sunset on our way back to the pier.

An amazing experience that really can’t be replicated on land! Being on the water for a sunset makes it so magical, I’ll never get over the vastness of the ocean. Not that it needs to be said, but the sunset was beautiful.
The crew is excellent. They know exactly what they’re doing and are very accommodating and check in on you regularly without making you feel checked in on ‘too much’. The drinks are strong and tasty! The appetizer was more like a meal, and was delicious, especially for a bulk prep-made food item; we had a chicken sandwich (with actual chicken thigh) on a purple potato or ube bun!
There is music playing for the whole ride, so if you’re noise sensitive get there early so you can be one of the first on the boat to pick your spot (don’t sit inside where the bar is - that’s the noisiest spot). With that said, if you’re focusing on the beautiful scenery, the noise sort of fades away into the background, anyway.
We had an amazing time, and will do it again next time we are in Waikiki area.

My family and I (2 adults, 2 children) had a great time exploring the sandbar and reef area with our captain/tour guide. We learned a lot about the history of the sandbar as well as got to enjoy the water and sandbar area. We got lucky with the weather since it rained earlier in the day. The provided snacks and musubis were excellent. We were sad when it ended, but brought back many memories.
Thank you so much for joining our tour and taking the time to write such a fantastic review! We're thrilled to hear that your family, including your children, had a great time exploring the sandbar and reef with us.

口コミがなく少し心配だったのですが
なんで口コミないのかなってぐらいに最高な時間でした!
同僚10人で3月に行きましたが、スタッフのおふたりも最高!パーティーも最高!クジラも見れたし
思い出に残る本当にいい時間を過ごさせてもらいました!
ハワイの3月の夕方~夜はまだ少し肌寒く、
特に海に出ると風邪も強かったです。
泳ぐこともできる※シャワーまでついてます!ので、水着の上に濡れてもいいような長袖を着るのがおすすめです!
ご飯と飲み物は持ち込みましたが、お皿もカトラリーもカップも氷もなにもかも揃っていましたし、
お菓子はカゴにいれてくれてとっても可愛くしてくださいました!

見れなかったという口コミもあったのであまり期待しないで行きましたが、5,6回くらい潮を吹いて潜っていくクジラを見ることができました!
尾鰭だけですがとっても大きくて感動しました!
自分は乗り物酔いしやすいですが、酔い止めなしでも全く酔いませんでした。
ただ風が強いので上着は持って行ったほうがいいです。
船内は裸足ですし、風でドリンクをこぼしたりする方もいるので濡れてもいい格好がおすすめです!
あと、送迎のシャトルバスは通りに止まるだけで呼びにきてはくれません。
会社名が書いてあるわけでもないので目立ちませんし、ドライバーさんによるかもですが名前を呼ばれたりもしないので大きめのバンが止まったら確認しに行くのが良いと思います。
あと送迎付きのプランの方は30分前に船の前に着くので、少々暇です。
(近くにアイス屋さんがあるので時間は潰せると思います!)

The captain (Chris) and crew (Athena, Jeff, and Beau) were outstanding - so kind and laid back, very helpful in selecting a spot to send off my parents' ashes. The catamaran was beautiful and a lovely ride - we even got to do a little whale watching while we were out. It was fantastic to be able to include so many family members on the cruise - plenty of room. The waters were calm and clear, it was a perfect day and perfect way to say goodbye.

I initially signed up for a turtle snorkeling tour, but it turned out to be so much more than that. It transformed into the most unforgettable whale watching adventure of our lives! We were fortunate enough to witness over 20 humpback whales just off the coast of Waikiki. It was truly a breathtaking sight.
I wanted to express my sincere appreciation for the flexibility in the itinerary. The fact that we were given the opportunity to dedicate some time to whale watching before snorkeling made the experience even more remarkable.
I wholeheartedly recommend the private Catamaran experience to anyone passing through Honolulu. The combination of the stunning natural beauty and the outstanding service provided by your team made it an unforgettable journey.
Thank you once again for creating such a memorable experience. I look forward to sharing this recommendation with friends, family, and fellow travelers.
