In December 2024, we partnered with 4Ocean to help clean up plastic from our oceans. Thanks to the contributions of our dedicated customers who opted to support this initiative when booking a tour, we’ve removed pounds of harmful plastic and trash. Here, you can see the total pounds of waste we’ve cleared from oceans, rivers, and coastlines. Together, we’re making a positive impact in the fight against the plastic crisis!
Our family-owned business has been well known in Hawaii for over 30 years. An originator of the famous Nā Pali coast tours, we are the first to offer both catamaran and raft adventure tours. Our special permits allow us to land rafts for a narrated walking tour along this beautiful coastline. Our excellent record sets the standard for Hawaii raft adventures by the US Coast Guard.
The raft ride was exhilarating but surprisingly comfortable. It rained a bit but they were ready with rain jackets. It only added to the fun and quickly passed. We saw tons of spinner dolphins, went into a cave and did a fun turn-about, and snorkeled on our way back. Highly recommend.
– Turkasaur | TripadvisorI have hiked Napali for years, but this was the first time via water and it was amazing! A MUST SEE & DO for those wanting a more adventurous and remote experience. Great crew and captain- good vibes, history, stories & views. I'll be back to book another trip! Thanks for some valuable memories and experiences.
– Jess G. | TripadvisorI’m a Custom-Adventure-Tour guide on Kauai. I specialize in only the best. Even though I live on Kauai, I still take a catamaran tour of Na Pali coast at least once a year. This company offers the best catamaran tour available! If you can, make sure to book a tour that has Captain Kauai at the helm, as he is the best of the best. Aloha!
– Canaan-Jason | TripadvisorMy first time snorkeling and I had a blast! The crew was personable, professional, and even offered me prescription goggles. This was a solo activity for me and I met some very nice people. Everyone had a great time. I saw dolphins, a tortoise, and fish that I used to have in my fish tank some years back. I look forward to doing it again on my next trip!
– onegoodnerveleft | TripadvisorPicturesque views of the coast, great information on the history of the area, and amazing wildlife!We saw too many whales to count, turtles and spinner dolphins. The crew provided a fun and safe experience for people of all ages. There were several people on the boat that had been on the same tour multiple times before.
– susanlL3402JX | TripadvisorThis was probably my favorite of all the tours I did in Kauai (..and I did a lot!).Very fun and upbeat, but also relaxing. We saw so many whales and lots of spinner dolphins. The views are second to none. We couldn’t do the Na Pali Coast due to high winds and waves. So worth your time to do this tour!Shout out to the captain and crew...you guys ROCKED!
– rhwebb2016 | TripadvisorThe tour and snorkeling were great, but what made this a memorable trip was the amazing crew! Their knowledge and service was impeccable and amongst the best I've seen (we make it a point to tour/snorkel everywhere we go around the world). Perfect balance of safety and experience. Thank you crew, I highly recommend Kauai Sea Tours!
– Chris C. | TripadvisorWe had an excellent time! Would recommend for sure when visiting Kauai. Captain Greg and our crew were amazing. We were re-routed the day of our trip due to high winds and not safely getting us to Napali, but they still made the trip memorable and fun! Scenery and wildlife were the best, would've been happy with just that.
