Wonderful experience and so glad we went. Beautiful sunset of course but the overall experience made it that much better. Would certainly reccomend them and book again. Was also really nice to be around a crew that had passion for what they do.

We had the most amazing afternoon. Sam and Mossy were so accomodating and made sure we had everything we needed. Would highly recommend!

Phenomenal experience! From the crew to the boat, this is definitely worth it! We got to see dolphins, turtles and a whale! The views of the sunset from the boat were spectacular. Thank you for everything!

Our amazing crew jumped in the water to show us the best
place to snorkel and pointed out a rather large reef shark.
Cyrene_D, Sep 2024
Such a unique experience! Captain Francesco and Jake took us to a reef area with a picturesque view of Diamond Head and the skyline. Got some great shots of the fish, reef, and sunset. They even came prepared with rafts and other swimming gear. Highly recommend for a group of friends!

I can’t recommend them enough. We had such an amazing time and unforgettable experience. Francesco and Nick were so welcoming and were the best hosts. They were so happy to get drinks for us, take our pictures, show us how to snorkel and provide fun facts about the island. I will be recommending them to everyone who visits Oahu.

This was our first boat ride we’ve ever booked and the crew made sure to give us an amazing experience. They were very welcoming and friendly.

Sam and Jake were very inviting, super friendly and easy to be around. We were a family of six- 2 teens, 2 40 something’s and 2 late 70s. They tailored the trip to make it perfect for all of us. Jake went snorkeling with the teens, we got to Bluetooth our music, they had a cooler with ice, a floating mat to sit on…it was incredible start to finish. Sam even turned the boat around to get the best photos of both the sunset and Diamond Head. Would 100% recommend this catamaran cruise.
Ann_B, Aug 2024
Sam and Nick created a really fun and tailored to us environment. The trade off for slightly higher per person price for the private experience was WELL worth it!

Great job gentlemen. We had a wonderful experience! Snorkeling, fun waves and sunset views that were incredible.
michael_s, Jun 2024
we took the sunset cruise, the captain and his mate were amazing, down to earth did everything in their power to make it a amazing experience for my family especially the kids, was great with the 2 year old, the private cruise is geared toward YOU so no dealing with a group of other folks and their nonsense. I would HIGHLY recommend these guys and I'm a very difficult person to please cause I mostly hate everything and stay grumpy. Please spend the extra dough if u got 5 or more in your group. enjoy!!!!!!!!!

The best experience of all my trip my children had a blast nothing more then private everything at ur spend and privacy

Francisco and Nick made our trip so memorable. We swam with Turtles and saw an amazing sunset. They went above and beyond to help us and make us feel special. They tried so hard to help us see whales but we couldn’t find any. (It’s towards the end of the season.) It was so great having the whole boat to ourselves. These guys have been on the island a long time. They gave us great info about the island and told us some great places to eat! This trip is a great value! Book it!

Sam & Nick hosted an amazing experience! We got to snorkel at an amazing spot and swim with the turtles, then we were able to see a momma a calf humpback well while simultaneously enjoying the beautiful Hawaiian sunset. These two guys were great and we had an amazing time, we will definitely book with them our next trip!
Maggie_G, Dec 2023
Sam and Nick were absolutely amazing! They made it an experience my husband and I will truly never forget. Nick took us out snorkeling and pointed out multiple fish and told us all about them. Sam informed us all about the island and told us stories about the island as well! On top of all that, these two were absolute gentlemen. They made sure I was able to get on and off the boat safely as well as just generally being very respectful. Thank you again Sam and Nick!

The cruise was nothing short of perfection. We began with a wonderful snorkeling experience complete with giant sea turtles and hundreds of fish. And enjoyed watching the sunset over Waikiki while hearing all about local history and tips for our travels from the captain. Overall 10/10.
Corey_K, Oct 2023
I have been coming to Hawaii for the last several years and this was the first time on the sunset cruise. Oh, man. It was such a memorable experience and the two hours on the boat went by so quickly. We also saw a couple of turtles and the kids loved it!!!! I highly recommend this cruise if you are considering it
Satwinder_G, Sep 2023
Definitely worth every penny. Enjoyed the best views of the city and sunset. Fireworks at the end on Friday night was the cherry on top.
Micaela_L, Aug 2023
We had a great experience purchasing the sunset cruise through Viator and the captain and crew member were so awesome! Very friendly, encouraging, and fun. We also felt very comfortable and safe.

Cannot recommend this experience enough!! Our guides were fantastic and so friendly. The snorkeling was so much fun and the sunset was absolutely beautiful. If you’re going to Oahu, this is a MUST!!
Amanda_P, Jul 2023
Hands down the best Catamaran cruise my family and I have ever taken. Captain Sam and Deckhand Nick are the best! Professional yet laid back and personable. They made us laugh, we saw beautiful marine life, the sunset was obviously stunning. All around a fantastic time for a great price! We will definitely book again and request Sam and Nick !!!
Gretchen_D, Jun 2023
This was the best thing we have done in Hawaii! The boat was just lovely. Captain and crewman were very knowledgeable about the area and sea life. We snorkeled and swam with turtles. The dolphins even put on a show. Would definitely recommend hands down. Much better than one of the larger tours.
Shane_K, Jun 2023
Went there with my four daughters. Captain Sam and his first mate were beyond welcoming and friendly. Two hours went by so fast because they made sure the fun never stopped. They had snorkeling gear for everyone, even helped my 10yr old get over her fear of snorkeling. Plenty of water, juice on the boat as well. When in Hawaii, want a private boat tour and have fun, this is a must do. My daughters keep talking about how much fun they had. Not sure if this review reflects it, but THIS IS A MUST DO PRIVATE CHARTER IN HAWAII!
Molly_M, May 2023
We had a fantastic sunset cruise and snorkeling adventure thanks to Francesco and Sam. They were perfect hosts. We had seating for everyone, refreshments and snorkel gear. They were always concerned with our comfort and dedicated the evening to our wants and needs. It was fantastic to have the boat to ourselves and our intimate celebration. We highly recommend Francesco and Sam for your sunset cruise, they even had a pod of spinner dolphins show up for us!
Megan_A, May 2023
Francesco and Nick made this adventure so enjoyable... magical even. They had fun energy, provided assistance if we needed it, shared their expertise and experience, and never stopped smiling. When looking online for things to do, it's hard to tell what you are going to get. I am so glad that I booked this trip. My husband, who was skeptical about the whole thing before we went, hasn't stopped saying great things about the experience. My son, who is 20, said he had the time of his life. We snorkeled, saw dolphins, and watched a beautiful sunset. It was definitely worth every penny.
Osiel_M, Mar 2023
We got to snorkel with turtles and saw whales! And to finish it off with a breathtaking sunset. The crew was fun, interactive and informative. recommend 100%
Cynthia_W, Feb 2023
We had a great sunset cruise on the catamaran. It was so nice having the entire Catamaran to ourselves! Crew were very nice and friendly. Will definitely book this tour again next time we are in Waikiki.
Yvette_F, Feb 2023
This is my favorite event in Hawaii, I've been to the big island, saw devil fishes and volcanos, even went surfing, but this is still my favorite. The sailors with us are experienced and had a very good attitude. On the boat, you can relax and enjoy the view of beautiful sky and seas, the sailors will also show you whales, fishes and dolphins, it's unlucky for us because we saw all of these just except Megashark, maybe next time🤣🤣, we also went snorkeling and fed fishes.Anyways, if you don't know what to do in Honolulu, this is a very good option.
Colby_A, Nov 2022
Great sunset cruise! Snorkeling was great and we were able to see a few turtles! The private cruise is definitely the best way to do it! Appreciate the great evening, thank you!
Mark_C, Dec 2021
Francisco and Gerald were fantastic. Very accommodating and helpful with the snorkeling. Very friendly and my kids had a blast. Highly recommend this event.
