What a fabulous outing! Our Captain piloted our boat with expertise and was a wealth of knowledge about the coast. Charlie was an attentive First Mate who was wonderful at making us all comfortable. All the dolphins were a bonus for a great experience.

The Makana tour was incredible and the captain and team were very accommodating and knowledgeable. I would highly recommend you use this boat to explore Napali Coast. Thanks for your hospitality Makana, Kana, and Ethan (fabulous singer). Cheers.

We did the morning tour of the Nā Pali coast on the Nā Pali Kai III. , I had read the morning tour had an almost guarantee of seeing dolphins, and we did see a lot of them, 2 or 3 groups of spinner dolphins and later in the morning we even saw a couple of the much larger bottlenose dolphins! You also get views of the coast that you just can't get from land. Captain Rob was great, as were the other 2 crew members. They were engaging with all the passengers and always provided drinks if you wanted, collected trash, took pictures of passengers, gave helpful tips, and stayed on the lookout for marine wildlife. I definitely recommend preparing with anti-nausea medication if you're prone to motion sickness, because the Pacific moves you around a good bit. Highly recommended tour!

Had a great time with this company. They took us to a great spot for snorkeling and then up the Na Pali Coast. The tour was informative and fun. I struggled with a little motion sickness, but the crew was fantastic about checking on me and offering different remedies to get through it and enjoy my time. Would definitely go with Makana again in the future.

(Translated by Google) Hi, I loved the tour! It wasn't boring at all and didn't feel long. The crew was great, all modern and nice. The boat was very pleasant; its upholstery felt very luxurious. I highly recommend it. (Original) Hola me encanto el tour no es aburrido no se sintió nada largo. Muy buen equipo todos modernos y bonitos.

One of the best tours ever. We seen the Na’Pali coast, huge pod of Spinner Dolphins, and Humpback Whales all in the same trip. The crew was incredible and fun to be with. Definitely ask for Captain A’a and Asia. Maholo’s 🤙.

Captain Mike is 100% professional Captain and you will enjoy his knowledge, his professionalism, and is courtesy towards his passengers. Elijah and Ethan, are two of the best first mates I've ever seen on any boat in my life. Cordial, dedicated. And always ensuring that the passengers are having a fun and always safe time on board. Furthermore, that was the best peanut butter jelly sandwich. I will certainly be back in the summer when the water is flat, the drinks are cold, and the smiles are just as big.

This was the highlight of our Hawaii vacation. The crew are amazing, funny and very knowledgeable. Sandwiches were very yummy and they had the water, juice and soft drinks flowing. Best decision ever and highly recommended to everyone!

Was a great trip with AA & Charlie.AA was a great navigator in & out of some rough surf. Felt very safe with his ability to maneuver the boat in & out one of the caves. Both AA & Charlie were very knowledgeable about the coastline & its' history & were very attentive to our needs. Highly recommend a voyage with makana & this crew aboard Selko 1.
