Our Sunset cruise was a highlight of our Hawaiian holiday. Alex & Sophia were really professional and friendly, ensuring all on-board had an enjoyable time. We took a leisurely cruise along the coastline, offered sodas, crisps & plenty of photo ops. It was a beautiful evening and we were fortunate with the weather. Definitely exceptional value for money. Highly highly recommended.

A very enjoyable experience. We were 5 of only 8 guests on the boat. It is small so it’s a little rockier than the bigger boats but it was great to have the space to roam a little and watch in different directions. We saw the tail of a humpback going down!!! The sunset was gorgeous!!! Our captain, Mary is definitely a skilled operator. This boat does not have information flowing over a speaker. Aaliyah, mate is personable and informative. We recommend this adventure.

Amazing Time

Jackquilin_H, Sep 2026

Beautiful cruise

Ingrid_k, Sep 2026
Such a nice relaxing cruise. The ladies were so nice and amazing. They gave us some pineapples, drink and chips. It was short sweet and a nice time around the ocean.

Perfect last minute sunset cruise

Steve_J, Sep 2026
Laney welcomed me as soon as I arrived. Funny-- we had similar sunglasses. Totally twinning!!! Soon thereafter we met Mary the Captain. I knew from the first "Wicked Awesome" that we were in for a real treat. Laney and Mary took us out of the Harbor and headed towards Diamond Head. It was a beautiful day with just a few clouds in the sky. I set up front with a couple from Minnesota and another from Mexico. I was traveling solo as my wife had to work late. Mary took us towards Diamond head but the ocean was getting a little rough so we only made it about 60% there. Laney continued to check on all of us through the tour and I had a nice chat with Captain Mary about life on HI. About half way through, Laney came around and took pictures for everyone. On the way back, Laney offered us chips in addition to the canned tropical juices she offered before we took off. After the tour was over, Laney laid out all our shoes on the dock (you have to take them off on the boat). Between the two of them, I felt well taken care of and super safe on the boat. I would definitely recommend and will be going again in a couple of weeks when I come back with my wife for work. Thanks guys!

This was such a relaxing beautiful sunset tour. The images we took were breathtaking. We would definitely recommend this to those that want to take in the beauty in and around Waikiki beach and Diamond head. Marisa and Chris were excellent. Mahalo!

Sunset Cruise well worth your time!

BJ_V, Sep 2026
Wonderful experience! A fabulous night for a sunset sail. Captain Mary and Crew Maddy were very pleasant and took great care of us. I have lived on Oahu during College and did a lot of sailing so this brought back wonderful memories of being on the water.

Best Sunset Boat Cruise

Jasmeet_T, Sep 2026
We had such an amazing experience on the sunset boat cruise with Oahu Charter! I would 100% recommend doing a sunset tour if you’re in Hawaii. The whole experience was such a vibe, and the views were absolutely beautiful. The captain and staff were incredibly kind and welcoming. A special shoutout to Aleiah, who made us feel so welcome right from the moment we arrived. She was so friendly, took the time to chat with us, brought around chips and fruit, and even helped us with ice for our drinks. She also took some amazing pictures of my husband and me, which we really appreciated! The hospitality was honestly top-notch, and we had such a great time from start to finish. I would definitely book with Oahu Charter again! 🌅🌺

This was an amazing experience that is well worth the money! The crew on board were very nice and helpful. Our captain even got us to an area with several dolphins that swam alongside the boat for over 10 minutes.

Crew was really friendly and it felt like safe ride. The vibes were great and the crew was so kind to my kids.

Abby was very nice and trip went smoothly

MarcusFlavio_D, Jul 2026
Very nice melow ride in a very large boat. Fitted 25 people in our group very comfortably. The trip was very beautiful and a special thanks to our boat attendant Abby, who did an excellent job taking pictures of us and giving some of her story on how she got to Hawaii from Delaware. I highly recommend this boat trip to see the sunset. It’s 1.5 hrs of round trip.

Relaxing sunset cruise

Joanne_R, Jul 2026
The dock is a little confusing, but our boat crew introduced themselves. They provided fresh pineapple, delicious island sodas and chips. Had a very peaceful vibe and enjoyed every minute.

Great experience!

Amanda_S, Jul 2026
Captain Mary and Sophia were great! It was a wonderful time being out on the water and a beautiful sunset. They both came around with snacks and drinks and asked if groups wanted their picture

Sunset Cruise

jamckell, Jul 2026
It was a pleasant experience. It probably would be more entertaining for those who have never been on a boat before. The views of Waikiki during the cruise were interesting and the sunset was nice to see. The nature of the sunset is at the hands of nature but the cruise itself is worth the price.

great experience!

Chaurice_S, Jul 2026
it was such a great experience, it is BYOB, but the team provided small snacks and refreshments. it was beautiful! definitely would book again.

Response from Host, Jul 2026
