A'a and Liliana were THE best! I HIGHLY recommend the Napali Coast tour with them. A'a is very entertaining with stories, jokes, and local legends. He also is an expert captain -- he knows how to back into the Pukalani roofless cave even in rough surf; he knows where the spinner dolphins hang out -- we got to hang out with dolphins for at least 15 minutes; and he knows how to pick a good, safe swimming spot. Make sure to bring towels! Lilliana came to my aid with yummy ginger chews so i didn't blow chunks 🤢😫😄 Thank you! Lunch was delish. They even had a GF sandwich for me, so dietary restrictions are no problem. We had a great time--best boat tour ever! P.S. If you do a book this tour with A'a and Lilliana, 1) leave your bananas at home, and 2) make sure to call A'a by his nickname that my husband Brad made up for him: "Stingray Steve."

Amazing crew and captain, one of the best experiences we have had on a tour. Captain made you feel at ease even when it got a little rough. Took us to see some amazing sights. Crew were so knowledgeable and accommodating the whole trip. Will do this again for sure.

Absolutely loved our boat tour! They were all so much fun and also VERY knowledgeable. We had an amazing weather day as well so the ocean was very calm so the captain was able to go into the sea caves and further down the NaPali coast! It was an amazing day with an amazing crew! I would recommend them to anyone 😊

This was a bucket list trip to see the NaPali Coast and it didn’t disappoint. Had a great time. The crew was great and knowledgeable about the area. We got to swim a bit and even saw a whale late in the season. Highly recommend!!

Had a great trip with Captain Rob, Leroy, and Kaiao! Very nice and genuine guys, ensured everyone had a fun experience. They all gave a lot of great info about marine life, birds, the island, boating, etc. On top of that, Kaiao provided great commentary about the history of the island and the Hawaiian peoples who inhabited the Na Pali coast and the coast itself. We (fortunately) saw TONS of spinner dolphins, sea birds, and a few late humpback whales that hadn’t migrated north yet (it was later in the season and we expected to see them. Breathtaking views of the coast, we’d previously seen it by helicopter, but this was a totally new experience and view. Getting close to the coast and into caves was amazing. Snorkeling was fun on the way back. All in all a great trip!

Absolutely a stunning adventure! The captain was a fantastic guide, hilarious, wise and entertaining. The crew was great, helpful insightful and fun to be around. I would absolutely recommend going on a makana tour when you visit Kauai. The history of this island is equally as fascinating as it is important. I have so much respect for the Hawaiian people and culture. This tour allows you the opportunity to experience a piece of it. We got to snorkel , see a sea turtle, spinner dolphins, mountain goats and a whale! Thank you so much to the captain and crew for an incredible adventure!
