This tour was worth every penny we spent on it. The NaPali coast is obviously incredible. There’s nothing I could say about it that hasn’t already been said a million times. What made the tour special was the crew in the office and running the boat. Everyone was so helpful, informative, fun, and funny. I couldn’t recommend highly enough.

DO THIS. It will exceed your expectations. Yes, there is the mystical Na Pali coast, the pods of dolphins, the snorkeling, and the emphasis on both safety and fun. What I was not counting on what Sean and Asia's openness in sharing about their deep connection to the land and their culture. It was an honor to hear their stories and to witness such beauty. Leaving the island with deep gratitude and respect. Mahalo 🙏

So happy we went with Makana Charters. Their boat was the perfect medium between the small rafts and the large craft enabling them to provide a comfortable experience and still access the caves and shoreline easily. The crew was excellent and took good care of us the entire time. We had a fun ride on the unusually high south surf, saw 20-30 dolphins, caves, waterfalls and the beautiful coast. Snorkeling was fantastic with many fish and a sea turtle. Would absolutely recommend.

Our trip to Na Pali coast on the Seiko II exceeded my expectations (which is very difficult to achieve). Moving slowly through the huge school of dolphins all around the boat was amazing. The scenery is spectacular, the cliffs and sea caves and waterfalls. Captain Sean did everything possible to show us a great time. The boat is really well designed for its purpose and much more comfortable than riding on an inflatable. Absolutely a highlight of Kauai - and we live on the Big Island.

It was fabulous. We went on the afternoon Napali cave snorkeling tour , our captain Shawn and first mate Kai, did a magnificent job explaining the history of the area. We will definitely do this again with Makana charter Seiko II. Smaller group. Hopefully we can request the same captain and crew mate. Thank you for making this family vacation a memorable one. Mahalo 😊. The best tour we’ve done not just in Hawaii but in other places we’ve visited.

Napali Kai 3 was the perfect boat to be comfortable while still be able to get close to all the sights. Awesome local crew 🤙 Even made sure dietary restrictions were taken care of. One of my favorite things I’ve ever done.

Captain Shawn and Kai were great. Inspite of rough seas, the ride was super smooth on the Cat. Beautiful views of the island.
