Up close & personal with Na Pali Coast!
If you like to drink tea on a big yacht with your pinker finger high in the air, you’re probably not going to like this!
However, if you are the wet & wild adventuresome type, look no further as our tours are likely to be the highlight of your Kauai vacation. The benefits of being on a raft vs a creature comfort large catamaran go on and on, but here are a few reasons bullet pointed below.
- We fit into sea caves when conditions allow, large cats never fit regardless of conditions.
- We have smaller more intimate groups, large cats have upward of 49 pax.
- We drive through waterfalls, large cats watch us from afar and drool.
- We generally swim or snorkel in pristine areas, large cats are legally restricted from these areas.
- Our ride is fast and fun, large cats are slow and boring.
Have we convinced you yet? Though we admit zodiacs are not the most comfortable or easiest way to see Na Pali and we do require you to be in above average physical shape, these boats are without a doubt the most fun way to experience Na Pali Coast. Please read the different tour descriptions below to help you decide on an experience that would be most enjoyable for you. If you have any questions, feel free to call us at 808 635 7238, otherwise please book online and we’ll see you at the dock!

Morning Rafting Adventure!
Our Morning Rafting Adventure is possibly the greatest experience to be had while on Kauaʻi. This activity has been rated number 1 in Hawaii for decades and itʻs easy to see why.
Morning conditions on our fast and agile rafts give us the freedom to experience all that Na Pali Coast has to offer with no boundaries or limitations. This 4.5 hour rafting adventure is packed with Na Pali Coast sightseeing, marine life encounters, sea caves and a chance to swim or even snorkel (conditions permitting)!

As good as Na Pali gets!
Offered only during the Summer Months, our Afternoon Rafting Adventure is an award winning tour, ideal for adrenaline junkies and dare-devil types. Just like our morning tour, expect to see the same Na Pali Coastline, sea caves, marine life, and waterfalls as you would in the morning. The difference in the afternoon is the sun moves into a position that front-lights the coast, creating unimaginably gorgeous visuals and photography opportunities. Another perk of the afternoon tour is Na Pali is much quieter this time of day and the odds of snorkeling with turtles generally goes up drastically (conditions permitting)!
Here’s the catch, this tour is only as fun as it sounds if the entire boat is full of young, fit, and adventuresome passengers. Afternoons on Na Pali are a lot windier than in the morning, so the ride is a lot wetter and wilder. If you are in above average physical condition and feel or act like you are between the ages of 15-45, book your best day on Kaua’i today, before its too late!
