Have the chance to bring your own food and drink to enjoy while you sail. Enjoy a comfortable ride as the crew shares their knowledge about Waikīkī, the thriving farm productions, and royalty that have frequented the area throughout history.

We decided to do this activity to start off our trip and we couldn’t have picked anything better. Really was a great start to everything and would recommend to anyone who maybe thinking about trying it. Our tour guide and his wife really made the experience feel unique. Even went out of their way to make sure we saw some whales which was the highlight of the ride. Truly amazing and something I hope to do again in the future!

Dock location was relatively easy to find. Just look for the anchor sign. If you get sea sick you may want to sit this one out. I’m not sure if it was because of the time of day but we did not get to see any ocean life. Nonetheless, the view was beautiful & the guides were great!

Our boat tour was fantastic; calm weather super nice operator and her assistant. We were supposed to bring our drink but forgot so that part but they provide water. It could be way better if they have bottle water because the one they provide is too small that requires multiple trip…
