Overview

If you're visiting Kauai, you absolutely can't miss seeing the stunning NaPali Coast. We offer a one-of-a-kind experience to do just that. As a Native family-run company, we are very fortunate to have been right here at our shop for 200 years, gathering our family's documented history to share about the NaPali Coast. Our Captains and Crew would love to share their very own culture and history with you on our tours. You can choose from one of our four vessels for a more personal and comfortable 4.5 to 5-hour tour. Our vessels are just the right size to explore sea caves with comfort when the weather allows. We can't wait to have you on board!

We're excited to share our rich history and heritage with you. Sharing their own stories and culture to create a truly memorable experience. Please choose from our four comfortable catamarans, which offer the same fantastic tour experience. Weather permitting, we'll explore multiple sea caves and snorkel in pristine waters.

The boat tour was the highlight of our vacation! It was incredibly enjoyable, and the crew was very knowledgeable. We saw dolphins, snorkeled, jumped off the boat, explored waterfalls, and ventured into caves, all while taking in the stunning beauty of the Na Pali Coast. I highly recommend this experience during your trip to Kauai!

This tour was an absolute blast! The captain and crew were incredible—friendly, knowledgeable, and, most importantly, committed to keeping everyone safe. The Na Pali Coast is breathtaking, and learning about its rich history made the experience even more special. The sea caves were fascinating, the snorkeling was unforgettable, and while the waves were a bit rough at times, they only added to the adventure. I will definitely book Makana Charters again next time I’m in Kaua‘i.

Total experience was best in class. Being able to see Na’Pali coast line up close and from the water was impressive. The captains and guides were friendly, knowledgeable and took this event to the next level. We highly encourage others to experience it.

Amazing tour to see Nā Pali coast. The water can be rough and the tour can be canceled because of it. Our first booking was canceled and we were rebooked to the next day. It wasn't issue for us but definitely to consider when booking. We did stop for snorkeling but again that day water was rough but still enjoyable for kids to go in the water. The Nā Pali coast is breathtaking and one of a kind. We took a lot of pictures and enjoyed ride.

Awesome experience. The crew were fantastic — kept everyone very safe but still very fun! Found a great place for snorkeling for those that wanted to do that. We got to see so much that we wouldn’t have been able to by car. Gave a little history of the island also while pointing out features like caves and waterfalls. Able to see some seals, turtles and fish and they even doubled back so we made sure we saw!! Would definitely recommend this tour.

The employees were down-to-earth and welcoming! We struck up conversation with them, picking at their knowledge, and they willingly delivered. The tour overall was 5/5 - we got to see dolphins & beautiful mountain scapes. The boat ride was 4/5 - nauseating and sometimes wet, but nothing the company could control with the chaotic waves rolling in. I recommend Makana Charters has ginger ale available for those who need to settle their stomachs. 5/5 recommend!
