Reviews for Makana Charters

Shawn, Elijah, and Lilli were so awesome and knowledgable about the area. Their passion for where they grew up really came through on this experience and in turn, allowed us to deepen a connection with the place. Conditions were so nice in the morning, there was so much wildlife (both in and out of the water), and you could really feel the mana of the cultural sites. Would go again in a heartbeat!

It was a really good 4 hours on the ocean. We also had a swim stop which was pretty relaxing as well. We were very lucky to have rain storm on our way back

We were really pleased with our captain and his crew. They anticipated all our needs. We were fortunate to follow a pod of dolphins. We also went part way into 2 sea caves. Both were amazing. To see the Napili coast from the boat was better than expected. We would highly recommend Makana Charters.

Hands down best day of our Kaua’i vacation (and we loved every minute here!) The views are breathtaking, the crew was AMAZING. Some of us struggled with sea-sickness but they handled it like pros. Their ship was in great shape, facilities clean and very nice. Highly recommend!

1) Local Family owned business 2) The Captain & Crew were incredibly helpful, engaging and offered Top-Notch service and illuminating commentary on the historical & Scientific details regarding both onshore geography/topography as well as fascinating marine biological insights into the many pods of dolphins, sea turtles, monk seals etc we encountered on our tour. 3) The boat is SOLID and POWERFUL allowing not only for fast access to terrific Na Pali Canyon vantage points, but also gives the captain great ability to overcome any big ocean swells 4) Thrilling, up-close encounters with several cliffside coves/Caverns as well as off shore swimming and snorkeling 5) CUSTOMER SERVICE⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Awesome experience with Capt. Sean and Ki. Saw dolphins, Sea turtles, colorful fish and plunged into the ocean. History of the island was well presented and had a great time. Thank you Sean & Ki!!!

Excellent experience. The team was friendly, knowledgeable, funny, and kind. This is a small Hawaiian owned business and should be supported.

(Translated by Google) We took a boat tour with Makana Charters during our stay on Kauai. It was a highlight of our time there. Booking was easy, communication was excellent, and the on-site organization was top-notch. A shuttle was provided from the meeting point to the boat. The crew was very friendly, the boat was clean, and safety on board was paramount. The trip itself, along the Napali Coast, is so spectacular that pictures simply can't do it justice. (Original) Wir haben während unseres Aufenthaltes auf Kauai mit Makana Charters eine Bootstour gemacht. Es war ein Highlight auf Kauai. Einfache Buchung, gute Kommunikation, vor Ort top organisiert. Vom Treffpunkt ein Shuttle zum Boot. Sehr nette Crew, sauberes Boot, Sicherheit an Bord. Die Fahrt an sich ist so spektakulär, entlang der Napali Küste, dass Bilder die Eindrücken nicht wiedergeben können.

Great tour, but a little disappointed we booked a “snorkeling specific” boat tour and it turns out our boat did not even have any snorkel gear, even though the website and description explicitly state snorkeling and gear is included. Not really sure what else to say about that. Both our guides were awesome and friendly. Tour got back an hour earlier than projected as well. Too bad we couldn’t use that extra hour to go snorkeling….
