1) Native-Hawaiian owned & North Shore–based: The only Nā Pali Coast boat tour company that’s Native-Hawaiian owned and operated departing from Kauaʻi’s North Shore. We’re a family business rooted here, practicing entrepreneurship as self-determination and protecting our ʻāina. Your booking directly supports kanaka maoli prosperity—and it shapes our tours: the stories we share, the aloha we give, and our deep knowledge of sacred places, proper conduct, and genuine appreciation.
2) Two snorkel sites, chosen daily: The only North Shore operator offering two options—Makua Reef and Nualolo Kai—so each tour uses the best conditions of the day. Other companies are limited to a single designated spot regardless of conditions.
3) Flexible island departures: We can leave from Hanalei Bay (North) or Kekaha (West) to fit the season and where you’re staying.
4) Custom-designed vessels for Nā Pali: Purpose-built to maximize your experience—sized for a smooth, comfortable ride and sea-cave access, with catamaran hulls for stability and an open-air design that gives unobstructed views straight up the cliffs and waterfalls as we travel alongside the coastline.
