We were able to see multiple sightings of whales on our trip. Unfortunately this was the only day of our vacation that was not sunny so we did not see a sunset.

Caden and his fellow crew provided a wonderful trip for the small group. They even created a few magical moments for a very special guest onboard who was visiting Oahu as part of a Make-A-Wish Foundation trip.

Highly recommend!!! The boat was the perfect size to move around and see everything the water, mountains and sunset has to offer but not feel crowded. Got get pictures. All of the deck crew was very inviting, personable,, and very informative. Had a great time!!! Felt like the cruise was made just for me and my family. Have a drink, relax on the catamarans netting up front, take in the sunset and just be in the moment.

We wanted a more intimate Sunset cruise and ended up, selecting this trip, leaving out of the West Coast of Oahu about an hour drive from Honolulu where we were staying. Our crew is great, there were only a dozen guests on the boat, the drinks were included, and there was a lovely, small chicken dinner/appetizer. It was not much of a sunset because of the incoming storm but we did see a whale and had a wonderful time.

Amazing experience. Beautiful coastline, friendly crew, and a great boat. Perfect weather and great friends certainly helped too! Would highly recommend to cap off a trip to the islands.

Great tour. If you’re looking to see an amazing sunset, with knowledgeable staff and a beautiful boat, this is for you. Drinks and food are nice. The cruise is relaxing but exciting as well. Definitely would do it again.
It was listed as a cocktail cruise, as it was, though we took our 18 and 20 year olds, they were included in all conversations and did not feel out of place.

Great way to end our Hawaiian vacation. The captain and crew were awesome! They made sure everyone had a great time. The views were amazing. The food was quite tasty, and they had a good selection of cocktails and local beers! Boarding was fast and easy. Plenty of free parking right there at the dock. Would definitely do this sunset cruise again! Worth every penny.

Crew was great, weather cooperated but Mother Nature came in for a home run with Pygmy killer whales “logging” and a rare treat to see plus entertaining spinner dolphins bow riding, topped off by a glorious sunset. Thank you Jesse, Caden and Sea-anna (best name ever for an ocean loving crew mate!).

Just as important as the scenery and weather is the crew - and the crew was outstanding! Christian led with confidence and good cheer, ensuring every guest was in good care. A big advantage doing this tour from the Waianae Boat Harbor is the quick transit to open water and transitioning from motor to sail. As usual, the sunset was spectacular - and it was a green flash night!
Marilee_L
The experience was okay. Of course the beauty - scenic views cruising up the coast AND the sunset - was unrivaled. The crew was okay, only somewhat engaged. When asked about the sea life we were told they were asleep. The food was unexciting and the cocktails were not great.
