65' Star Catamaran Charters

Star Snorkel BBQ Sail

5.5 Hours7:15 AM Check InSnorkelBBQ Lunch

Adult $245.00 Child $225.00

Morning light on the Na Pali Coast is full of sunshine and rainbows. Explore the gorgeous coastline and enjoy a relaxing downwind sail before going snorkeling. Keep an eye out for dolphins and other amazing wildlife along the way. A freshly prepared BBQ meal along with beer, wine, and non-alcoholic beverages round out the tour. More

This Star sailing adventure gets an early departure from Port Allen on the west shore of Kauai. It will start with a short briefing and introduction as you depart from Port Allen. You will first head west and then turn to the north to reach the Na Pali Coast. As you head towards the Na Pali Coast, you will see views of Niihau, Polihale, and the ridges of Kokee. A morning departure generally means you will have calmer sea conditions and lighter winds. It also virtually ensures an encounter with a massive pod of Hawaiian Spinner dolphins that can be found along the Kauai coastline most mornings.

We generally take a nearshore route up the entire Na Pali Coast and then turn to sail downwind a bit offshore so you can enjoy the panoramic views as well. On the Na Pali Coast, you will see spectacular sea cliffs, numerous waterfalls, and several lava tubes. Kauai is the oldest of the main Hawaiian islands, and this spectacular carved coastline is the result of millions of years of exposure to wind, waves, and rainfall. Our crew are extremely knowledgeable about the history and legends of the ancient civilization that once inhabited these verdant valleys, and they are happy to share this knowledge with you!

On most days, our Hawaiian trade winds blow out of the east, which makes for a perfect downwind sail once we have reached our turnaround point on the Na Pali. Once we reach our turnaround point, the crew will power down the boat's twin diesel engines, hoist the mainsail, and unfurl the jib, setting you up to relax and enjoy the beautiful views on your way to one of our favorite remote snorkel spots.

After a relaxing sail, we'll tie up at a mooring at our snorkel spot so that you can get in the water to swim, snorkel, or play. You are also welcome to remain on the boat if you wish to simply relax. The onboard chef will serve a delicious lunch freshly prepared in our galley (kitchen) along with beer and wine. Alcoholic beverages will be available only after you are done with your in-water activities.

After lunch, we head back down the west side of Kauai in the direction of Port Allen. We time our tour to return to Port Allen at 1:30 pm.

Includes: 65 ' Star Yacht, Na Pali, continental breakfast, BBQ lunch, beverages, snorkeling, sailing, whales (in season).

Winter Alert: The island of Kauai is known for its rugged beauty and its unique ocean conditions. The same extreme elements that have shaped the landscape sometimes prevent us from comfortably exploring the Na Pali Coast, and in-water activities are always weather and ocean conditions dependent. Your captain will continually monitor the weather and will be receiving reports about local ocean conditions right up to your departure time. We will notify you approximately 90 minutes prior to departure via a text to the number you provided at booking to advise you of any destination changes the weather and/or ocean conditions may make necessary. Wherever we go, it will be a super fun day on the water!

Star Dinner Sunset Sail

4-4.5 HoursPM DepartureSunsetSurf & Turf

Adult $245.00 Child $205.00

Late afternoon light makes for an amazing Na Pali sunset tour. See rich hues of green, red, and black as the setting sun highlights the many sharp ridgelines and valleys that make this coastline unique. More

Our Na Pali Coast sunset tour is the premier "dinner with a view" experience. You can see the whole coast of Kauai from Haena to Milolii, even the "forbidden" island of Niihau far away. Each day is unique, as the light reacts with the clouds and landscapes. Rainbows frequently add color to distant mountains, and our sunsets at sea are spectacular.

The Na Pali sunset cruise will start with a short briefing and introduction as you depart from Port Allen. You will first head west and then turn to the north to reach the Na Pali Coast.

Meanwhile, our onboard chef will begin preparing a fresh and delicious meal. Our Kauai sunset dinner cruise stands out from other tours because our Star catamarans feature a full galley (kitchen). This means that your meal will be freshly prepared onboard.

Most days, the trade winds in Hawaii blow from the east. These winds create ideal conditions for sailing downwind along Na Pali Coast during the dinner cruise in Kauai.

For an optimal Na Pali coast sunset cruise, the crew aims to position the boat for a stable downwind sail. After we turn around, the crew will stop the boat's engines, raise the main sail, and open the jib. You can then relax and have a tasty meal prepared by the chef at sunset, along with your favorite drinks.

We time our Na Pali sunset tour to return to Port Allen at dusk.

This Kauai sunset tour DOES NOT include snorkeling. To snorkel, please check out our morning cruise: Star Snorkel BBQ Sail.

Includes: 65 ' Star Yacht, Na Pali, dinner, beverages, sailing, sunset, whales (in season).
