Captain Sundown takes you sailing from Hanalei, where we often have dolphins playing and leaping alongside as we sail! See marine life, jump in and snorkel, and even enjoy some fishing on this unforgettable sail.
Captain Sundown’s sunset sail is the perfect second activity of your day. Unobstructed views on board Ku’uipo make for a photographer’s dream come true!
Established in 1971, we are a family-owned and operated Na Pali Coast sailing catamaran company from Hanalei Bay, located only five minutes north of Na Pali. Our departures from Kauai’s North Shore allow memorable sailing opportunities filled with wild sea life encounters such as dolphins and sea turtles, flying fish, humpback whales (in the winter), rare marine birds, and fishing fun! We promise you a day out on the water that you won’t soon forget. Join us for a real and special sailing opportunity out on open Pacific Ocean waters.
This day trip was full of great experiences and I would recommend this tour to anyone seeking a more personal view of Napali. This trip had dolphins, monk seal, and more, while seeing the most beautiful sites ever.
– Christina T., TripAdvisorEverything about this trip was wonderful. The views were incredible, we saw whales in addition to the snorkeling, which was also great. The lunch was also really good. I'd highly recommend it.
– Peg L., TripAdvisorWe had a wonderful time cruising along the coast and snorkeling. We saw a ton of fish and 3 massive sea turtles. I'd highly recommend a tour with Captain Sundown!
– Tom R., TripAdvisorMy family of four had a great time. Nick was informative, friendly, and patient with my boys. Sailed up the coast and motored back. Snorkeling was a hit. Saw several sea turtles. A good time was had by all.
