Quick Details
Nā Pali Raft & Snorkeling Adventure
This raft adventure to Nā Pali takes you everywhere you’d go on the day tour with the exception of a beach landing. Travel under the waterfalls and into sea caves when conditions permit, encounter playful dolphins, turtles, whales (in season), and more. Dolphins skimming the waves before you is an experience to remember always.
When conditions allow, the raft will choose to snorkel at Nu`alolo Kai, one of the best reefs on Kauai, inaccessible from the land. You can only reach this area by small vessels (conditions permitting) and passengers can swim and snorkel right from the boat. Dive in to snorkel over tropical reefs under the watchful eye of our crew with all the gear and instructions provided.
Excellent photographic opportunity and sunset views end this perfect day of adventure!
*All activities are at your own risk, rafting is a moderate thrill ride, best suited for the physically fit, outdoor adventurer.
