Enjoy a relaxing night out on the water while being treated to the sights, sounds, and tastes of Hawaii. On a comfortable and spacious two story 65′ boat, you will cruise down 12 miles of Kona coastline while a local historian points out sites and tells you stories about Hawaii’s past. Keep an eye out for pods of spinner dolphins leaping into the air, majestic humpback whales (Dec-Apr), and sea turtles. A full dinner with local culinary favorites will also be served to your table. After reaching famous Kealakekua Bay / Captain Cook’s Monument, the boat will then make its way back to Kona with a sunset as the backdrop and a local musician strumming his guitar and singing popular hits and local Hawaiian music. A premium cash bar is available throughout the trip, and it includes one complimentary cocktail.

Hawaii Big Island Revealed Guidebook:
They do it right. Their impressively researched narration keeps things interesting, the food is very good, and their mai tais are better than we expected. One of the best dinner cruises we’ve seen.
Moon Guidebook:
This ‘you’ll do it all tour’ is a good way to check lots of ‘must do’ activities off your list at once.
Fodor's Guidebook:
Great way to relax, watch the sunset, and learn about Kona's history
Although guests are welcome to make song requests and dance, most cruises are pretty mellow, with guests relaxing over drinks and food while watching the sunset and hearing soothing live Hawaiian music.
It is a premium bar serving locally made rum, vodka, whisky, and beer. Blender-made cocktails, including passion fruit daiquiris, available!

The bigger the boat, the more stable it is. The vessel is 65′ in length with a 30′ beam and the largest boat of its kind on the Kona Coast. It’s a totally different experience than being on a smaller boat or a raft. If you know you are prone to sea sickness, it is recommended you take Bonine or Dramamine the night before and one several hours before your cruise. Please read directions to see that you are able to take this medication. It is also available onboard, but it is best to have it in your system prior to boarding. Also offered are complimentary Ginger pills and a Ginger drink which are great for motion sickness and are all natural. You are more likely to feel better on the lower deck of the vessel as there is less pitch.
Yes. Pending availability (at least 2 months in advance is recommended), your group can buy out the boat. Pricing is the adult rate x 85 spots. Please contact us for more details.
