Kauai Boat Charters

Book a Kauai boat charter to experience the beauty of Kauai from out at sea. You'll find all types of charters from day tours with snorkeling and sailing to more customized private boat charters. Book a sunset cruise to enjoy a romantic time with your significant other or find a fishing charter where you can go deep-sea fishing for Mahi Mahi and Blue Marlin.

The Na Pali Coast alone offers miles of beautiful sea cliffs and waterfalls that can only be explored by the ocean. It's the best way to experience the crown jewel of Kauai, and that's before even getting into the marine life. From humpback whales to spinner dolphins, you can easily spot these beautiful sea creatures by boat.

Charter a boat to experience Kauai in a way that most travelers coming to the island won't ever have the chance to.

The fishing charter is equipped with top-of-the-line electronics and fishing gear to help us catch you more fish. All of our fishing captains and crew members are coast guard certified with many years experience fishing in Kauai.

Kauai waters offer the opportunity to catch mahi mahi, ono (wahoo), yellowfin tuna, and marlin. We offer many different styles of fishing from trolling for big game fish, light tackle, deep sea jigging, bottom fishing and baiting. From first time fisherman to experienced anglers, we can customize a Kauai fishing trip to fit your needs. You want a more personalized Kauai fishing adventure, we also offer private charters where you can have the boat to yourselves and have the choice of any style of fishing with four, six, or eight-hour charters available.
