Before going on this...

Before going on this adventure raft we had seen reviews that Keke was an awesome captain and we were so stoked to learn that she was driving our boat. Be prepared for adventure - this is not your relaxing boat cruise. You sit on a motorized boat raft and go very fast over waves, super super fun! Keke was so knowledgeable about the history of Kauai and we were lucky enough to go into several ocean caves along the Napali . We also saw lots of spinner dolphins jumping around! The sandwiches provided were yummy. My daughter tends to get very boat sick but since the raft was high speed and sitting in the back plus a Dramamine she felt great the entire time. This is an incredible local business and we recommend to anyone looking for a high speed boat adventure featuring the best views of the Napali coast!

Intense and Awesome Tour!!

I’ve been on a lot of tours and this one was pretty intense! Our captain, Paul, was amazing with maneuvering the speedboat so we were absolutely soaked by the waves and screaming! The landscape was incredible, and hearing history about the old Hawaiian settlements that were there was fascinating. We saw so many kinds of seabirds and even a group of dolphins! We also entered a few sea caves and it was unlike anywhere I’ve ever been in my life. Snorkeling was fun - we were provided with equipment and it was really cool to snorkel by the cliffs. Lunch was great too! Overall very fun and unique tour but definitely be prepared for the intensity of the waves!

Not as described

This trip is not to do snorkeling, snorkeling is a very small part of it. The views of Na Pali coast are beautiful. However, getting there takes quite a while. If you enjoy riding a mechanical bull while going 40 miles per hour on rough ocean waters - this is the trip for you.

Captain Kay Kay's Fun and Wild Ride, "It's Spicy!"

This trip was so fun it should be illegal. My favorite part of the adventure was bouncing over and through the waves as Captain Kay Kay cranked up the music and powered on in confidence. I wouldn't have traded our little raft for any other boat! Thank you Captain Kay Kay for your gift of joyful and adventrous Aloha.

Book it!

KK and Hailey were great captains and guides! Highly recommended, it was educational but also adventurous. My family said it was the best excursion they have EVER been on! The dolphins, snorkeling and the beauty of the coast made it all worth it.
