Spectacular! Definite highlight of our family trip. So beautiful and breathtaking. From the 11 year-old to the 78 year-old we all had a blast. Top notch

One of the absolute best tours I have ever been on. The captain and crew were incredible. Extremely knowledgeable and so much fun. My 11 year old daughter loved watching the crew dance and sing on our return trip. I can't remember the last time she laughed so hard! The scenery is a beautiful that can't be explained! Dolphins, sea caves. manta rays, cliffs....just incredible! Thank you, Makana Charters!

My girlfriend and I had a great experience with Makana’s tour! We enjoyed the hospitality of the captain and crew, they were very friendly and diligent about safety. We got to see dolphins and a manta ray during our afternoon tour and entered a sea cave. Sweet lunch, and roller coaster of a ride. Thanks captain Shawn, Elijah and Ethan. Would definitely recommend!! ⭐️

Did a family trip to Na Pali with Shaun, Elijah and Ethan yesterday morning. They were great! Weather was perfect - we saw dolphins, sea turtles and fish when snorkeling. Boated into a few caves and saw beautiful waterfalls. The crew was hospitable and helpful - even with my 83 year old mom. Would pick this company again - looks like one of the few or only companies that shuttle you to the dock and back as well!

My wife and I had an amazing time! Words seriously can’t describe how above and beyond the guys went to make this a memory we won’t forget! We saw STUNNING views and got to go under a waterfall!! We saw dolphins and a huge manta ray! It was unbelievable! Snorkeling and seeing the reef was incredible! They served us yummy sandwiches as well! If you’re looking at other charters stop your search and book with this one!

We had a fantastic time. The staff is very knowledgeable and super accommodating. The trip allowed us to see parts of the island that we could not have driven to. The sandwiches were delicious. Captain Mike is very competent with driving the boat. Safety was priority. I would highly recommend this trip. We loved the playlist!!

My family and I had a great time. It was a fast boat and it was bouncy on the way out and the kids loved that. We saw lots of dolphins. The tour guides were fantastic! They even wiped everyone’s sunglasses after we went under a waterfall. There were sooo many fish! More than I’ve ever seen on a boat tour. My kids also jumped off the boat into the water over and over at the snorkel spot and loved it.

It was incredible, not only everything we saw, but also how well they explained everything. They were attentive to us the whole time, making sure we were fine and comfortable. Without a doubt, an amazing experience that I would repeat without hesitation and highly recommend to everyone. Mahalo!!

Fun family trip. Super friendly crew. We took their biggest boat, morning ride with snorkeling. Captain Rob, crew Tony and Liliana. Boat has shade, comfortable seating . Doesn’t feel too crowded. Crew makes the trip fun with explanation of history, culture and geo formation. Highly recommended for families.

We don’t recommend to choose this company for your trip, they canceled our booking just 2 hours before trip via email even without any call or message, as we came from the other side of the globe and everyday is planned, they ruined our day here.
