Departing from Kikiaola Small Boat Harbor on the westside of the island our tours typically do the entirety of the NaPali Coastline ending just shy of the north shore, stop for dolphins and seasonal whales, explore the sea caves, go over cultural history, and stop for a snack and snorkel. Tours are approximately 4.5 hours, unless booking the 8 hour fishing and sightseeing. *All parts of our tour are conditions permitting as your safety is our top priority. No two tours will be the exact same, experiences may vary.
An extraordinary coastline sure to nourish the soul.
Na Pali "many cliffs" is one of the most photographed and sought after destinations to visitors from around the world. This 17 mile stretch of coastline follows the north-west side of the island of Kauai and is nearly inaccessible with the exception of boat or helicopter. Millions of years of erosion caused by surf, wind, and rain have formed the plummeting cliffs and hallowing valleys.
Join us in witnessing this amazing creation and learn of the rich cultural history, view the goats climbing the velvety green cliffs, turtles and seals diving into the shallow clear blue water, waterfalls draining thousands of feet into the ocean, caves that will leave you breathless, and dolphins racing and spinning alongside the boat. Then finish the day with the fish when you have the chance to snorkel in the warm waters and view firsthand the beautiful and vibrant sea life.

True to the Island
"I hadn't been to the Na Pali coast in years and the trip really brought back some amazing childhood memories. It is especially nice having a true local to guide you along the way. His experience of the water and surroundings was truly noticeable. I will never suggest anyone other than Komohana Charters to my friends and family ”

Favorite part of my trip!
"Kauai is an amazing place to visit, but I absolutely fell in love with it after experiencing the Na Pali Coast. The colors are just breathtaking, and I got the most amazing pictures thanks to Koa and and his patience with me trying to capture the perfect shot."

Can't Wait to come back
"My family and I agreed that our day on the coast was our favorite part of the entire trip! Koa took us in an amazing cave and under a waterfall! Then we had a huge pod of dolphins come alongside the boat!"
