Morning Na Pali Adventure Tour from Hanalei Bay

Overview

Your 40-foot rigid-hulled inflatable boats were handcrafted on Kaua‘i specifically for this stretch of coastline. Designed for both comfort and agility, they’re large enough to offer a smooth ride across the open ocean, yet nimble enough to slip into sea caves and hug the coast for an unforgettable, up-close experience.

Unlike other rafts that seat you along the inflatable tubes—with your back to the view half the time—your vessels feature forward-facing seats, so you’ll enjoy panoramic views of Nā Pali’s cliffs and waterfalls throughout the entire journey.

All of your tours depart from Hanalei Bay on Kaua‘i’s North Shore, giving you direct access to Nā Pali in just 15 minutes. Most other tour boats leave from Port Allen which is nearly 2 hours from the North Shore.

Led by some of the most experienced captains and crew in the industry, you’ll hear captivating stories and legends that bring the coast’s history to life.
