Additional Information

Join me on a private catamaran journey in Waikiki and experience breathtaking ocean views, local wildlife, the emblematic eastern side of Oahu, and the sun setting over the sea. Our adventure will commence from Kewalo Basin Harbor in Honolulu, taking us along the coastline to Diamond Head. Along the way, we’ll pause for any sightings of turtles, dolphins or whales. At the pinnacle of our course, we’ll anchor at a serene spot for relaxation. Guests are free to partake in guided swimming and snorkeling or simply get their feet wet as we bask in the resplendent afternoon. The boat is entirely reserved for your group, allowing you to play your own tunes and bring along any snacks or drinks of your preference. Throughout the voyage, I’ll happily impart my local insights and the cultural heritage of the regions we traverse. It’s the perfect way to wrap up the day.

Great experience on a great boat with great people! - Francisco and Nick made our trip so memorable. We swam with Turtles and saw an amazing sunset. They went above and beyond to help us and make us feel special. They tried so hard to help us see whales but we couldn’t find any. (It’s towards the end of the season.) It was so great having the whole boat to ourselves. These guys have been on the island a long time. They gave us great info about the island and told us some great places to eat! This trip is a great value! Book it!

Amazing - Sam & Nick hosted an amazing experience! We got to snorkel at an amazing spot and swim with the turtles, then we were able to see a momma a calf humpback well while simultaneously enjoying the beautiful Hawaiian sunset. These two guys were great and we had an amazing time, we will definitely book with them our next trip!

Epic sunset sail! - Exceptional day on the water with an amazing crew. The sunset and snorkeling were epic. Captains Francesco and Sam made us feel comfortable right away and showed us around the reef. Boat was super clean and roomy. Mahalo!!

Unforgettable - Sam and Nick were absolutely amazing! They made it an experience my husband and I will truly never forget. Nick took us out snorkeling and pointed out multiple fish and told us all about them. Sam informed us all about the island and told us stories about the island as well! On top of all that, these two were absolute gentlemen. They made sure I was able to get on and off the boat safely as well as just generally being very respectful. Thank you again Sam and Nick!

Every day in Waikiki should end with a sunset cruise aboard the Keanuenue - The cruise was nothing short of perfection. We began with a wonderful snorkeling experience complete with giant sea turtles and hundreds of fish. And enjoyed watching the sunset over Waikiki while hearing all about local history and tips for our travels from the captain. Overall 10/10.

A unique and fun experience! - Family of six including two younger daughters who were a bit afraid. The captain and his crew mate were friendly and patient! We thoroughly enjoyed, and my daughters agreed this was a highlight of our trip to Oahu!

I have been coming to... - I have been coming to Hawaii for the last several years and this was the first time on the sunset cruise. Oh, man. It was such a memorable experience and the two hours on the boat went by so quickly. We also saw a couple of turtles and the kids loved it!!!! I highly recommend this cruise if you are considering it

Highlight of our trip - Definitely worth every penny. Enjoyed the best views of the city and sunset. Fireworks at the end on Friday night was the cherry on top.
