Paradise in Hawaii waters - Our crew was absolutely amazing, the boat was so comfortable and not only with the facilities is great, but we got an incredible education and both of our crew were so kind and knowledgeable. It was a great way to spend three hours. We saw tons of whales, turtles and birds. The crew was extremely accommodating put the float out in the water for us served us drinks got our snacks ready and they were like our friends. Highly recommend this trip.

Ash Scattering tour was perfection. - We did a sunset ash-scattering tour and it was perfection. The Pau Hana is a lovely boat and the crew, Flynn and Tay Min were absolutely so kind. Would love to take this tour again for a fun afternoon in the sun.

Birthday Private Sail - WOW what an amazing crew! So friendly, so professional, and so fun to talk to! The boat itself is very comfortable and luxurious with a variety of places to sit and lounge. The catamaran gives some added stability for smooth sailing too. We had a group of friends sail together for my birthday and we couldn't have asked for a better experience! Perfect way to relax and spend an evening out on the ocean!!!

Elite catamaran cruise - Amazing captain, crew, and owners !! They are a small family owned business. Catered to our every need. Felt right at home and comfortable immediately. I cannot wait to be back out on the water with them! I wish I could live on that boat and be on the water every day. I am beyond thrilled to review this company as a 5/5 star. Do yourself a favor and book them ASAP for a morning afternoon or sunset cruise. You will not regret it 👌🏼

Amazing sunset sail experience! - We went for a friend’s birthday party. The captain Jason, Mariah, and the rest of their crew were very friendly and attentive the entire tour. The charcuterie board was amazing complete with fire tomato jam for the Brie cheese. The whole experience was lovely and would definitely recommend!

Not worth it - Dont get me wrong on the rating, crew was very good and took care of us all the time time, they are professional and polite, but not worth the money, it is very expensive for what they offer regardless of climate conditions, that’s all Im going to say Arrived a bit late, about 15 minutes, tour was less than 2 hrs, tough was going to be 2 hrs or 2.5 hrs, no magic carpet, no snorkeling
