Welcome To Kauai’s Na Pali Coast
Kauai’s Na Pali Coast. Giant mountain peaks tower straight out of the ocean. Waterfalls pour down the cliffs back downward to meet the sea. Along the way, a pod of dolphins might say hello. And no matter what, the sights will take your breath away. Welcome to a place of wonder and awe – welcome to Kauai’s Na Pali Coast.

By Boat or Air
There are a few options to exploring the Na Pali Coast when visiting Kauai. You can see it by either foot, helicopter, or boat. We feel that seeing it by boat is the best way possible! Why?
Seeing by foot is very slow and difficult, as the trail into Kalalau from Ke’e is rated one of the toughest in all of the Hawaiian Islands. Even if you are in good shape, the trail ends at Kalalau, leaving over 1/3 of the coastline inaccessible.
You can see the entire coastline by helicopter, but you are at such a large distance away in much shorter time. But it might not be a bad idea to see it both ways. As a Native, I have never seen it by Air.
On many boat tours space might be too small or keep you in one seat. On these smaller crafts the salt spray can be unavoidable, which will get all over your expensive gear.
By boat (with us), you have all the amenities you need on a 4.5 to 5 hours of fun. We provide you with lunch, local juices, soft drinks, full snorkel gear if you prefer to swim, and much more. On the way you will see and enter waterfalls, enter sea caves, see playful dolphins, Sea turtles and such amazing sea life! Snorkeling with many different types of fish, experience the incredible cliffs up close, receive a back in time narration on the history of the coastline. It is filled with immense beauty in Hawaiian history that we provide you.
When you get to see the coastline by boat you get a unique view from the water, at a pace that allows you to take everything in. With the added bonus of snorkeling underwater, you will also get to see an entirely different world than what is found on the surface – you will be able to interact with the amazing sea life that lies below.
So as you can see a boat tour is not only the best way to see the Na Pali coast, it is also one of the most economical and immersive experiences that you will have.
