If there were more than 5 stars I’d give it to them! Our Captain Mike De Silva and crew Jas and Charlie were truly exceptional and looked after everyone so well. We saw dolphins and whales, had a beautiful swim and learned so much about the Na Pali Coast. Definitely recommend! What a fantastic experience. Thank you!! 🐬

We had the best time with Captain Mike, Jazzy, and Tony. They were fun, knowledgeable, and such a joy. Captain Mike owns the company which we thought was really awesome to have him as our guide. Can’t recommend it enough. Locally owned and operated, too!

This was our third trip having new friends with us on Kauai and our first time with Makana charters. It was by far our very favorite experience. The boat is awesome, comfortable, and safe. The crew was very knowledgeable, polite and told many stories and pointed out just how incredibly this part of Kauai is. We saw whales, spinner dolphins and many sea birds along with the beautiful coast. My adult kids had a ball and can't quit talking about everything we experienced Will be back soon!! Brad Barger

Even though we couldn’t swim due to the weather, this trip was the highlight of our vacation (even my kids agree). The crew was so kind to me and my kids. We took a different boat ride with a different company a few years ago and this was the best. Will book with them again. Thank you so much ❤️

What an unforgettable experience !!! Big thanks to Captain AA, his niece and all Makana Charters 's family ! The tour on the boat Seiko 1 was fantastic ! Our Captain drove us into the heart of the extraordinary Na Pali Coast and gave us a lot of informations about the country, old villages and the living, culture and traditions of ancient hawaiians. Along the trip, we saw dolphins and humpback whales, our Captain entered into caves ( wahou, such a dexterity on driving the boat !!! 🤩😁, We thought we were in Pirates of the Caribean), shown us waterfalls,... We had snorkeling in Na Pali Coast 's pristine waters, swam with so many colourful fishes and an Hawaiian Honu and, when going back to Kikiaola Small Boats Harbor, we once again saw lots of dolphins and even a mother whale with her baby and the very young humpback gave us an unforgettable demonstration of his ability on jumping out of the water, smiling to us !!! Words can't express our feelings or our Joy...Once again thanks a lot and Big Up to Makana Charters, the only Hawaiian native company to drive boat tour on Na Pali Coast if I don't mistake ! We'll keep you all in our hearts and in our memories !🫶🫶👍👍 Carel and Karima

Captain Mike and his crew were great. They shared their personal stories of being born and raised on the island and their many generations of history. The Hawaiian music was a great background. He maneuvered the boat into several caves for an up close and exciting experience. He found clear calm water for us to enjoy an ocean swim. It was a wonderful day.

The experience was amazing. The catamaran was very clean. It was smaller than other tours which was great. It allowed our group to go into coves, waterfalls, and closer to the coast. The guides were so kind and helpful. We had a great time.
