William_R, Apr 2026
Nice boat nice views just nice we'll worth time. Seen a couple of turtles right out of the harbor. Was whales seen earlier in day but not this time, on way back got to see a manta ray... Way cool

Response from Host, Apr 2026

Aloha William, mahalo for joining us on our Waikiki sunset boat cruise! We’re so happy to hear you enjoyed the beautiful views and had a great time with our crew. Our Honolulu sunset cruise is all about relaxing on the water while taking in the Waikiki coastline, and it’s always a bonus when guests get to see marine life like turtles right outside the harbor or even a super rare sighting of a manta ray on the way back, those moments make the experience even more special. While wildlife sightings can vary day to day, we love that you were still able to experience a bit of everything during your time on the water. Pairing those encounters with a scenic Waikiki sunset cruise is what makes this one of the best things to do in Honolulu. Mahalo again for cruising with us. We hope to welcome you back again soon for another Waikiki sunset cruise along the Honolulu coastline or a Turtle Canyon snorkel tour!

Response from Host, Mar 2026

Mahalo for joining our Waikiki Sunset Cruise! We’re so glad you enjoyed your Waikiki sunset cruise along the Honolulu coastline and had the chance to see humpback whales throughout the trip.
