Oceanfront Dining at It’s Best!
Tour Description
Kauai’s South Shore is generally much calmer than more-exposed areas, so we’ve created this sail for those seeking a more relaxing, shorter sail complimented by gourmet food.
The sail starts with a “welcome aboard” cocktail as we depart from Port Allen and head East (depending on the conditions). Meanwhile our team of onboard chefs will get busy preparing the fresh meal. Unlike other charter boats, Southern Star is equipped with a full galley (kitchen) and bar. This means that the meal can be prepared fresh onboard instead of the standard practice of pre-cooking food.
On most days, we’ll head towards the calm waters off Lawai Kai. The crew’s objective on this sail is to position the boat for a calm, downwind sail during dinner service. Once we reach our turnaround, the crew will power down Southern’s twin diesels and hoist the massive mainsail and jib. Now you’re set up for some sailing, relaxing and yummy food.
Sunsets off the South shore are almost always spectacular. Passengers will enjoy a panoramic view of the entire Southwest coast of Kauai with the “forbidden” island of Ni’ihau in the distance. Each day is unique, as the light reacts with clouds and landscapes. Rainbows frequently add color to the distant mountains.
We time the sail to pull in at Port Allen near dusk, our goal is to return you to shore safe, happy and full.
