NaPali Coast Sunset Dinner

napali sunset cruise

The view of the sunset around Kauai is stunning from the boat because there is nothing for miles around, except for Niihau Island and Kauai’s impressive coastline. As I mentioned previously, I went on Captain Andy’s Napali Sunset Dinner Cruise (Star), and it was an incredible experience. The Na Pali sunset tour was well organised and the crew were faultless. Something important to note when booking your Na Pali Coast boat tour is that tours depart from different locations even though they are going to the same place.

The weather was so bad in the first few days of our trip causing our initial Captain Andy’s Napali sunset dinner cruise to be cancelled. Luckily, Capt Andy’s allows you to reschedule free of charge and book on another Na Pali catamaran ride or raft excursion with them. Embark on a journey like no other as we take you on an unforgettable Kauai boat tour through the majestic Na Pali Coastline. Nestled along the stunning Garden Island of Kauai, this iconic destination is renowned for its towering emerald cliffs, cascading waterfalls, and crystal-clear turquoise waters.

They say it’s the journey and not the destination, but Napali might be the exception to the rule—Kauai’s northwest coast is truly something to behold. We always find ourselves saying, “It never gets old,” because the Napali Coast has a way of humbling us with her magnificence, every single day. It’s the rainbows and the dolphins and the way the Cathedrals break through low-lying clouds.

Now you're set up for some sailing, relaxing and yummy food. With dinner, dessert, and drinks included, the Napali Sunset Cruise offers a lot of value and will leave you smiling and satisfied. On the way to and from the majestic Napali Coast, we’ll pass the towns of Waimea and Kekaha, the Pacific Missile Range Facility, Barking Sands Beach, and Hawaii’s longest beach– Polihale Beach.

As part of their mating rituals, curiosity, and propensity to “show off” to humans, we’re often treated to dramatic breaches, tail slapping, and other fascinating behaviors, such as spy hopping. Seeing the napali coast from the catamaran was an experience I will not forgot. More dolphins and some awesome facts and history from Captain Chris (who was FANTASTIC). The crew was incredibly helpful, willing to take your picture, get you a drink if needed.

Step on board our luxurious sailing catamaran and you'll immediately feel the warm hospitality and professionalism of our experienced crew. Settle into the spacious deck, find a comfortable spot, and get ready to embark on a truly magical Kauai dinner cruise. The afternoon lighting is unforgettable as it streams into the valleys of NaPali Coast and don’t miss out on our “Titanic” photo opportunity. A delicious luau-style dinner complete with beer, wine and Mai Tais is served as we sail back toward Port Allen. Your tour finishes with the beauty of the Kauai sun sinking into the ocean along with a champagne toast at sunset. Fun fact—did you know that Holo Holo’s tour boats were all designed and built right here on Kauai?

Travel in comfort and style to dramatic locations around Kauai and Hawaii’s “Forbidden Island” of Niihau off uninhabited Lehua Crater. The waters of Niihau and Lehua are considered to be some of the best in Hawaii with over 100-feet of visibility and unique lava formations with rare endemic sea life you won’t find anywhere else. Experience ancient Hawaii from the water by power or sail during a Napali Coast Sunset Dinner Cruise and experience majestic waterfalls, hidden sea caves, towering cliffs, and lush valleys.

You’ll cut through the waves onboard the Imiloa, an express catamaran that promises to get you to the coastline faster than most. On board, a USCG licensed captain provides narration while a friendly crew serves you at your seats. A light late lunch of turkey or veggie wraps is included in the price, and beer, wine and Mai Tai’s are available too. The tours set off in the mid-afternoon and return just after sunset.

Read on to learn more about the Napali sunset cruise and my review of Capt Andy’s Kauai boat tours. At 65′, this agile power cat is long and wide enough to give you a swift, adventurous ride even at her top speeds. She’ll get you to the Napali Coast or Niihau faster than anyone else! She can carry 65, but we keep the numbers to 49 or less, which means more room to sightsee, snorkel, relax, and enjoy all that Kauai has to offer.

Champagne, beer, wine, and cocktails are also available for purchase. Note that our Napali Coast and Niihau tours often fill up 2-3 weeks in advance. Booking your tour early in your vacation window is a good idea in case weather forces us to postpone your tour. Make your reservations online and save $15 per person! Accessible only by boat, helicopter or on foot, the Napali Coast is Kaua’s most enchanting stretch of shoreline.

There’s plenty of room to stretch out and relax on Leila, both inside the cabin and on deck, and there are two bathrooms for everyone’s convenience. You may still be hungry after a sunset dinner cruise since the food offering is late. Therefore, you may wish to head to one of the restaurants in Poipu for some more food. Consider restuarants, such as Brennecke’s Beach Broiler or Stevenson’s Library, or grab a quick snack from Puka Dog or Bubba Burgers.

Consider taking an over the counter motion sickness preventative before your cruise if you are worried about sea sickness. Ocean conditions can be unpredictable and may turn rough; this activity may not be suitable for all travelers. If you have very specific schedule requirements and are not flexible, please book sooner. Last minute bookings are often possible, but availability is limited. Snorkel and a chance to do some sailing on the return trip back to port. Our little catamarans can take up to six passengers.

Booking your tour early in your vacation window is a good idea in case the weather forces us to postpone your tour. Captain Chad told us a lot of history and stopped the  boat to show us landmarks. Kelly and Koi made sure we had plenty to drink and we had a great supper buffet. At sunset they stopped the boat for pictures and Champaign.
