Best boat trip ever! - Had such a great time onboard the BYOB sunset cruise! Such a nice big boat with so much room for activities. I like that you can ride on the front and be one with the dolphins, and you can also go upstairs and watch the captain do his job! Such a great crew who were more than happy to accommodate us in any way we needed. It was also great that we could bring our favorite beverages on board with us, and they even had iced coolers we could use! Highly recommend jumping on the boat with Hawaii Ocean Charters if you are visiting and looking to get away from the crowds on land! You will see turtles, maybe a pod of dolphins, and whales if it’s the right time of the year. Mahalo HOC!

Sunset cruise - Big shout out to the crew and captain on the Big Kahuna they did an awesome job welcoming me aboard, explaining the safety equipment, and what to expect while on our tour. The water was a little rough due to the afternoon wind but the boat handled like a champ! It was a group tour and it was fun to kick back with BYOB and meet all the different people. 10/10 would highly recommend.

Fun affordable BYOB cruise - Great trip! Easy check in, friendly guides, lots of room to walk around on the boat. Sunset is the best time to go for golden hour photos and not too hot. Exactly what the website describes
