The Captain and his son are down to earth, real people, who have experience and knowledge about a place that can only be obtained from living there basically , forever. It was an awesome day with dolphins jumping out of the water and interesting stories about the beautifull island of Kauai . I found the people on the Island to... more

Capt. Sundown leaves from Hanalei (north shore). The waters there tend to be pretty rough, so expect to hold on and get wet. They leave at a reasonable time of the morning; it's nice to not have to get up and drive to a boat trip in the wee hours of the morning. You are met in a parking lot... more

After reading most of the reviews, we decided to take the day snorkling cruise. We only had a few dissapointments that was noted in other reviews... but overall a very positive trip. We parked in a pizza restaurant parking lot that was being fumigated that day for termintes... when "Stephanie" checked us in... she NEVER asked for payment... as per... more

It has been a few months now since our trip to Kauai, but when I reminisce about the time we had our great day with Captain Sundown always comes to mind. If you are in for a sailing and snorkeling adventure, Captain Sundown is the way to go. The knowlegeable crew taught us a lot about the island, the local... more

We took the evening sunset cruise down the Na Pali coast with Captain Sundown and had a good time! Staying on the north shore, it was nice not to have to drive down to a harbor since this left a few minutes away in Hanalei bay. We took a small boat out to the catamaran four at a time, and... more

This is THE way to see the Na Pali Coast other than in flight. Do not worry about getting into the boat as another reviewer complained about. I got my ankles wet. Larry, Captain's step son, ran around the boat making us all happy the entire time. We didn't drink, but others brought beer and he made sure they had... more

My wife and I took the 6 hour Sail and Snorkel tour along the Napali Coast during our honeymoon. I’ll give a recap as I remember it: Due to the high tides, instead of walking out in the water to the boat, we were picked up in a dinghy for a ride. We weren’t sloshed by any water and didn’t... more

We sailed last month on the sunset cruise. Booking was easy on their website after I talked to Stephanie on the phone and she gave me good info since, we did not want a wild ride if we could help it. Sailing from North shore was just amazing, great scenery from Hanalei Bay up the Na Pali coast , not... more

Last week 4 of us 50+ folks went on the snorkel cruise with Captain Bob and Larry and loved it!! We would like to dispel the idea that the wade out to the boat is only for young folks. Perhaps for the truly aged and infirm I might suggest another alternative but anyone under age 80 in decent condition should... more

I did the Napli & Snorkel tour on May 11, 2009. Had a wonderful time with Capt. Bob and Larry, they were the perfect hosts and knowledgeable. more
