    Unlimited beverages on the cruise
    Leanne D.

    We were chilling on Waikīkī today and we saw several catamaran sails available o. The beach. We've been on one once before years ago and decided to do it again. This one hour cruise sails to diamond head and offers unlimited drinks. The crew was amazing and made sure our drinks were always full. A wonderful way to spend an hour on the open water to enjoy the beautiful weather. Definitely recommend Na Hoku 3 when in Waikiki.

    By far the best catamaran in Waikiki! JJ & Justin are both great captains and all of the crew is amazing. Aidan is hilarious and so personable yet so professional at the same time! I can't say enough about the boat and all of them! Book now, this is a must do!

    Our Sunset 1.5 Hour Sail was Magnificent! We boarded just steps in front of Duke's in Waikiki Beach. The crew was very informative and took care of us throughout the whole sailing. It was an open bar with selections of drinks and beers and sodas. Views from a distant length was spectacular showcasing Diamond Head and the skyline of Waikiki. The best part was that beautiful sunset. Definitely a good experience while visiting Oahu.

    Service was great from the crew. They checked on all the guests. It was a fun tour but the sunset wasn't great. Definitely in a very touristy part of town but still fun. On Fridays the have fireworks on the same beach this takes place on, you just have to walk further down the beach. More booze cruise vibes then peaceful sunset but still fun.

    When my bestie told me she booked us a catamaran for my 41st birthday I never could have imagined how epic it would be. The music, the drinks, the views & the crew were top tier. Thank You Stevie, Caleb & Noah, a new tradition has been born!

    It would hard to enjoy a boat ride where unlimited booze is offered. Na Hoku offers a short sail in the bay and the price is relatively reasonable provided you drink up. The mood is festive and having the breeze against your face cannot be beat. The boat advertises an hour ours ran about 45 minutes.

    Celebrated my mom's 50th birthday with a happy hour here. My mom and friends loved the experience. Price was good. Mai tai not too strong. Music was good. Reservations and check in was easy Crew was friendly and communicated well The ship sailed for exactly 1 hour. Views were nice.

    Free and clear of all

    Our first trip to Hawaii and we had no idea what to see, what to expect. We walked to the beach behind our hotel and there was the Na Hoku 3 calling our name. With no reservation we easily signed up for the Diamond Head Sail and were helped aboard the boat. The entire experience was wonderful, starting with our hosts, Jerry and Mahala, the beautiful weather, the view of the south shore of Oahu, Waikiki Beach, and Diamond Head, the free drinks, and loved the great selection of music. It took us back years to our youth. This was the highlight of our visit to the Aloha state. I would rate this a "Must Do" for anyone visiting Oahu.

    Added bonus - fish on!

    Such a fun time! They pick up and drop off right from Waikiki beach. Mary, Justin, and Jay were killer captains and hosts. They even caught a big fish while we were sailing which was an awesome experience. I always recommend going out for a sail with this boat anytime someone I know visits Oahu.

    Sunset cruise

    Awesome experience in Waikiki - definitely a fave from our trip to Hawaii. Reservations, checkin and boarding were all very smooth. We did the sunset sail and enjoyed all the drinks and views - it helped we had a stunning sunset. Highly recommend for a unique experience in Honolulu. I will say it was pretty choppy but I took a dramamine prior to going out and didn't feel sick at all. Fun crew; would absolutely book again.

    The Diamond Head Happy Hour Sail was an amazing experience! We came across this sail on TikTok and let me say, it was totally worth the hype. The reservation process was so seamless and the check in flow was so smooth. Alex (or Alec sorry) was a great host! His intro was very entertaining and his crew was just as great. The bartender Stevie from Ohio was extraordinarily friendly and attentive. They served your drinks to your spot on the boat and consistently check in with you. Did I mention this was an open bar? Already worth it just by that! We had the opportunity to sit on the roof as well as the net. It was a beautiful experience seeing the ocean from this view, we definitely recommend spending an hour of your time for this lifetime memory. P.s Stevie we'll see you at Lulu !

    Twilight views.

    This sunset catamaran cruise is a must! Totally worth the extra money (compared to happy hour cruise) to see the glorious colors of sunset and the Honolulu coastline lit up by the city lights in twilight. Their route took us across Diamond Head to where we could see beautiful Maunalua Bay before turning back. Their mixed mai tais were too sweet for us to keep downing (open bar), so we switched to their beers. They also had a few other basic mixers and alcohols to concoct standard drinks. The staff is friendly (great vibes!) and played chill reggae jams with some throwbacks on our way back in. We weren't lucky enough to get a whale or turtle sighting, but they do happen on occasion! I came here with a few visiting friends for a COVID safe activity. The boat had plenty of space and breathing room for groups to sequester off into their areas. Lots of fresh air and wind. After the boat gets started, you're allowed to sit almost anywhere on the boat (including the roof!) for stunning views. Bring a light jacket for when the sun goes down :) Check in is out on the beach at the catamaran.

It was quite confusing to find the meetup point at the beginning, but asking the hotel staff did help us getting there. We went on the high-tide day so needed to walk a bit from the usual boarding area. Probably helpful to remind people wearing slippers as you'd need to take shoes off. They did provide proper and plenty storage spaces for your footwear on the boat (appreciated!). Drinks were pretty much bottomless and they had their very own Mai Tai so you could really enjoy the 'complete Hawaiian package'! The only problem with high tide day, it meant be prepped to get wet and going on and off the boat would be quite tricky as you needed to manage timing to avoid the tide from getting you soaking wet. I was unfortunately not the pro and literally got half-bottom wet, getting off the boat LOL. Paid off by the gorgeous sunset view!!

You'd relish the chance to recapture that thrill, if only for a moment! And that's why you'd want to book an evening catamaran with Holokai! The staff are incredibly accommodating to those with mobility issues...from the time you book, till you board ... then disembark. Not just one employee, but every employee, looks after your safety and enjoyment. Epic service! And if you're really lucky, there will even be enough wind for the crew to hoist the mainsail...and you'll spend at least part of the evening whizzing across the waves again! If there's a quibble with Holokai, their bar menu doesn't offer much for the Bourbon and Beer crowd. It leans too heavily into the "fruity drinks" side of things, at least for some in our party of four. Still, we whizzed crossed the waves once more...and that made us forget, at least for a moment, our aching knees and hips. Well done, Holokai! Mahalo!

Some logistics to know about: you can get validated parking at the Embassy Suites for $15 (4 hours). If you want free street parking, you'll need to come much earlier and give yourself extra time to get to check-in. Check-in itself is super easy annd it's inside the Outrigger near Monkeypod. The staff is genuinely kind and welcoming from the start. They give a quick safety talk and then walk you down to the boat You'll step into the water to board and you're not allowed to wear shoes, so honestly don't even bother bringing any. It's a catamaran with nets to sit on (my favorite spot) plus regular seating and plenty of space to move around. Unlimited drinks are included and the crew constantly checks in to see if you need anything. Both times I've gone we've seen whales, which feels so special! It is definitely choppy so if you get seasick easily this might not be your move. If you're a water baby though, you'll thoroughly enjoy this experience! It also gets windy, so bring a jacket. If you love being on the water, sunsets, and a fun but relaxed vibe, this is such a good option. Highly recommend!
