• Jurora 0 contributions 5.0 of 5 bubbles A good time! Hubby and I enjoyed our sail, even tho' the last part of it had a bit of rain/wind. It started off as a great sunset, and later the clouds came in, but that didn't dampen our mood of the sail. My husband roamed to take various pics around the catamaran, but I stayed-put, to stay in my comfy seat, as I had hurt my back the night before, and also regarding that, the helpful captain, took my hands to help me along the narrow walkway (as he walked backwards) to embark and debark the cat., as my legs didn't work that great that night....thanks! A staff member also had my transport chair, ready and waiting for me when I reached the end of the walkway, after the sail! As others mentioned, friendly staff and great views of the shoreline, of skyscrapers and Diamond Head, even with the clouds. Read more Written March 18, 2024
• Stay23886423386 0 contributions 5.0 of 5 bubbles Worth every penny and then some. An amazing experience. For anyone who is a first-timer or anxious of going, I highly recommend Moana as they have such a positive and helpful crew that makes the whole experience stress-free. I made the mistake of swimming out with my wallet on me and the crew was kind enough to take it back to the boat and they even dried it out for me. 10/10 would attend again anytime I’m in Waikiki.

• Andrew L 0 contributions 5.0 of 5 bubbles Recommend! Captain Chris took us out and our experience was great. The crew took our orders in a timely manner and the cocktails were delicious. They also offer beer and wine for those not wanting hard liquor. Everyone had somewhere to sit as well, but you are able to stand up and walk around during the excursion. Would recommend if you’re going as a couple or as a large group! Read more Written March 17, 2024
