This was pretty awesome, I booked it on my last day in Hawaii. The crew was friendly and cool, scenery of Waikiki was lovely from other side. If you’re solo its great place to meet new people plus can’t forget all the free beverages!

    Allan_C, Jul 2025
    Our adventure was incredible. The crew makes it too. Great music, beautiful scenery, unlimited drinks. Jesse was our primary host. He was a very nice guy. Our crowd ranged from 32-62 years old. Be prepared to get wet and have fun!

    Must do water sailing excursion!

    Anders_S, May 2025
    Amazing Waikiki / Honolulu excursion tour. Booked an afternoon Waikiki water tour with KE KAI - ALOHA BOATS. It was across the board top notch. The friendliness and professionalism from arrival to departure. The sailing was fantastic. We only wish we had booked more time for our sailing. A must do in your travels! Ship-mates Nick and Brandon are super.

    One of a kind experience
