BYOB sunset sail with swimming in Waikiki. Sail past Diamond Head and the Royal Hawaiian, then snorkel and swim off Waikiki.
“Out of all of the crews we could have picked, I’m glad we chose this crew. Although it’s BYOB, it’s perfect for my family who doesn’t care to drink anyways - we had another “open bar” boat who was loading up next to us and it was WAY too many people and it looked over crowded - this crew was small but the journey felt much more intimate and they were all super friendly and I felt safe throughout the whole trip!”
1-hour Friday night sail from Waikiki with front-row fireworks, moonlit Honolulu coast views, and onboard Bluetooth music for $71.
“Fun boat ride with fireworks, what could be bad. Bartender was excellent. Being disabled I needed a little more help getting on and off the cat. Crew was great.”
Bike 5 miles downhill from Tantalus, then sail from Kewalo Basin with snorkel time for reef fish and sea turtles near Waikiki.
“We were picked up by our bike guide, and drive about 5 minutes before pulling over on the side of the road for an entire hour. Got picked up at 12pm, sat on the side of the road until almost 1pm. “Waiting for another guide to show up” when he finally did show up we headed on our way. The biking was nothing special for 100$ a person……the bikes were not well maintained. The snorkel group / sail was fun. Personally I would just book this separately and skip the scam bike ride all together……. Really wish I could get a REFUND for my bike ride. We sat there for…”

Oahu bike, rainforest hike, Diamond Head sail, and snorkeling combo with Waikiki pickup and gear, plus a safe downhill ride.
“This was a great adventure until it came to snorkeling. I had never snorkeled before and never wore fins. Although someone gave a basic class on how to wear the equipment they did not instruct beginners on what to do and what not to do. I was looking forward to snorkeling but when I jumped into the water and came up to the service and took a deep breath all I got was water in my lungs because the air tube filled with water. They never said to blow out the water and I didn't even think about doing this. I tried to continue swimming but could not and had…”
Ride Hawea, a 50-foot catamaran, for a 90-minute Waikiki Aloha Hour sail with all-inclusive drinks and Diamond Head views.
“So impressed with this ride …. Excellent crew! Excellent drinks. So much fun sitting on the nets at the front and watching the flying fish ahead of the boat. Second time we have done thing and would love to go again…. And again …. And again”
Small 6-person Oahu sunset sail on The Universe: Diamond Head views, Waikiki lights, snacks and drinks, led by Captain Tony.
“Highly recommend! Captain Tony was so knowledgeable and enjoyable! My husband and I and our 18, 21 and 23 year old kids all enjoyed the sail! Well worth it! He also does turtle swims, dolphins and whale watching in season. We are hoping to come back soon!”

Watch Waikiki fireworks from a catamaran at sea on Oahu. 2-hour Friday sail from Ala Wai with a prime fireworks view.
“Horrible experience.. captain not only asked for tips but also told us how much...and hire an IT GUY.. WE received a cancelation notice even though the trip wasn't cancelled......very unprofessional ..”
Private Oahu day trip from Honolulu with a 2-hour sail and turtle snorkel, plus blowhole, lookouts, and Tantalus views.
“We were on vacation and booked this adventure with our teens and a 2 year old. This was a great time and money well spent. Our guide Carey was well versed on the island and was very enjoyable and accommodating. The sailing trip was very relaxing. The captain chose a time when the snorkeling area was nearly empty so the trip was perfect. My wife is kind of obsessed with turtles but had no snorkeling experience and not a strong swimmer. She got the chance to see two of them and loved it. This trip has been her most fun vacation ever thanks to this adventure.”
BYOB sunset swim and sailing in Waikiki: swim off Diamond Head, then sail Hokulani into the Pacific with onboard shade and water.
