The Na’Pali Coast Tour with Makana was our favorite part of our trip to Kauai! Sean and Kai were great guides and took care of our every need. We had so much fun with them, from learning about the local history of the area, to snorkeling, seeing dolphins, and jumping off the roof of our boat, the whole day was amazing. I highly recommend them, it is well worth the money!!

Excellent experience! Cliffs! Waterfalls! Dolphins! Sea turtles! Highly recommend. Captain Sean and first mate Ky’le were full of fun energy and very informative. We learned so much on our trip. The music was top-notch and made for such a fun experience! Highlight of our trip.

Mahalo nuuuui to Captain A’alona!! He’s seriously the most talented, friendly, captivating Captain ever. We and the ohana had the most amazing time of our lives on your boat. It’s always like seeing heaven when you take us to visit Na Pali Coast. We will always return to Makana charters. Thank u again

This charter never disappoints. My 4th time with them and I’ll do it again The boat is perfect for the potential conditions, fast enough to get thru the coast there and back along with lunch, snorkeling , cave encounters, and the history and significance of the various areas This is the boat and crew you want ! We’ve had different crews over the years and they were and are all great. Professional, helpful, funny. Prices have gone up but the quality remains!!

We have done a couple different boat tour companies and they all have their own experiences, but this one was my most favorite! A big thank you to captain Sean and Kai!

One of the absolute best tours I have ever been on. The captain and crew were incredible. Extremely knowledgeable and so much fun. My 11 year old daughter loved watching the crew dance and sing on our return trip. I can't remember the last time she laughed so hard! The scenery is a beautiful that can't be explained! Dolphins, sea caves. manta rays, cliffs....just incredible! Thank you, Makana Charters!

My girlfriend and I had a great experience with Makana’s tour! We enjoyed the hospitality of the captain and crew, they were very friendly and diligent about safety. We got to see dolphins and a manta ray during our afternoon tour and entered a sea cave. Sweet lunch, and roller coaster of a ride. Thanks captain Shawn, Elijah and Ethan. Would definitely recommend!! ⭐️

Did a family trip to Na Pali with Shaun, Elijah and Ethan yesterday morning. They were great! Weather was perfect - we saw dolphins, sea turtles and fish when snorkeling. Boated into a few caves and saw beautiful waterfalls. The crew was hospitable and helpful - even with my 83 year old mom. Would pick this company again - looks like one of the few or only companies that shuttle you to the dock and back as well!

My wife and I had an amazing time! Words seriously can’t describe how above and beyond the guys went to make this a memory we won’t forget! We saw STUNNING views and got to go under a waterfall!! We saw dolphins and a huge manta ray! It was unbelievable! Snorkeling and seeing the reef was incredible! They served us yummy sandwiches as well! If you’re looking at other charters stop your search and book with this one!

We had a fantastic time. The staff is very knowledgeable and super accommodating. The trip allowed us to see parts of the island that we could not have driven to. The sandwiches were delicious. Captain Mike is very competent with driving the boat. Safety was priority. I would highly recommend this trip. We loved the playlist!!
