This tour of the coast was one of the highlights of our trip! We saw the beautiful Napali coast, as well as dolphins, turtles, and even a shark spotting at one point! The crew was amazing, making it fun but also felt safe especially with kids. The captain was so skilled maneuvering us into sea caves. We will never forget this experience!

We chartered the Amelia K with no expectations and were absolutely blown away. The crew did an amazing job, and the breathtaking views we experienced made the trip unforgettable. Everything exceeded our expectations, and we will definitely be adding this charter to our must-do list every time we visit Kauai. Highly recommended! 🌺🌊⛵️- Michael and Gianina Hay

Makana Charters is the best boat tour to the Napoli Coast. We took this charter twice 2 years in a row while visiting Kauai. They are super friendly and funny! The boat is clean and comfortable. And the tour is spectacular. Thank you all again!

This was one of the best tours I've ever taken. Great boat, captain, and first mate. Beautiful coastline. Snack tasted good with unlimited drinks. Good talks with humorous delivery at times. We saw sea turtles, lots of dolphins and fish. The ocean water was so clear I could easily see the bottom 18 ft below.

Had a wonderful time. Everyone was so helpful. Sam went above and beyond in helping me. I'm getting old 76 and am not that steady on my feet. Sam got me a walking stick. He helped me so I didn't follow in the stream. Very enjoyable definitely worth the money. Beautiful waterfall

We had a very good experience with Makana Charter Tours. They gave a lot of information as we went through the 2hr tour before snorkeling for about 30 minutes. The whole tour is about 5hs. My daughter is 12 years old and loved seeing all the fish when we snorkled l. They took us through caves and saw waterfalls along the way. It was magnificent! They provide all snorkeling gear and sandwiches with chips as well as a variety of drinks. You will not be disappointed.

(Translated by Google) Simply magnificent, breathtaking scenery! We saw hundreds of dolphins, a tiger shark, turtles, fish… Our driver was extremely experienced and told us the history of Kauai along the way. So interesting. The crew also took some beautiful photos of us. Thank you! (Original) Tout simplement magnifique, paysages à couper le souffle! Nous avons vu des centaines de dauphins, un requin tigre, des tortues, poissons….Conducteur extrêmement expérimenté qui nous a raconté l’histoire de Kauai en parallèle. Tellement intéressant. Aussi l’équipage a pris des belles photos de nous. Merci!

This trip was amazing! Captain Mike, Tony, and Jasmin were such friendly guides and had so much history and great personal island connections to share. I felt so comfortable that I jumped into the ocean for the first time ever. Absolutely recommend! Pic is Jasmin getting ready to head back and beautiful scenery.

The Makana Charter boat tour along the Na Pali Coast was absolutely breathtaking and easily our family's favorite excursion of the entire trip to Kauai. It's hard to truly appreciate the island's incredible topography while you're walking on the island, but being out on the open water gave us a whole new perspective. The mountains are massive, and the lush green cliffs covered in grass and trees are simply stunning. The entire crew onboard was extremely friendly and accommodating. They kept us laughing and made the entire experience even more enjoyable. One word of caution—be careful when exiting the sea caves! We got completely soaked by a waterfall while leaving one of the caves. But honestly, sometimes you've got to take a little risk to capture that perfect photo. If you're vacationing in Kauai, don't miss the opportunity to experience the Na Pali Coast aboard the Makana. For our family, it was worth every penny.
