Na Pali Coast raft adventure and snorkel - Such a great experience! NaPali Riders! The crew were friendly and informative. I felt safe the entire time. We plowed over the waves and got to go into a few caves. Dolphins were everywhere. The snorkeling was great! Plenty of fish to see out in the ocean just off of one of the sky high rock faces. The views are surreal. Photos cannot capture the beauty. Definitely a must if you have the time.

Exciting adventure on the water! - Wonderful trip. Exciting to see such beautiful mountains from the water. Loved being on a zodiac small enough to get into the caves along the coast line. The captain and crew were very friendly and accommodating.

Crew, conditions and caves most excellent - The crew! Everyone was friendly, accommodating and a perfect combination of laid back, friendly and funny but conscious and insistent on safety and schedule. It also helped that the weather and water conditions were perfect. Oh, and caves were awesome

12/10 will do again - This was definitely the highlight of our trip. Brandon (the Captain) and Tom were both very knowledgeable about the island and the waters surrounding it. We had a smooth day, but you still bounce around a good amount, but the they do a great job making sure everyone is comfortable and having a good, safe, time.

Incredible Experience! - Incredible experience with Brandon and Tom! The boat ride was as smooth as it could be for the unexpected swell we had. Please be mindful that snorkeling is not a guarantee during this tour for everyone’s safety. Had we tried to snorkel during our tour, someone for sure would have gotten hurt or been left behind. We were still able to swim in the ocean, and the views of the Napali Coast were easily the most beautiful thing my husband and I have ever seen.

Amazing excursion and a fabulous captain. - Brandon was our captain and Tom was his assistant. They were both very professional and made sure we were all safe and at the same time have an amazingly fun day . An afternoon filled with high speed adventure and amazing sites. This trip is not a lot about snarking although we did snorkel about 30 minutes. It’s more about high-speed boats and amazing sites. Brandon took us into four or five caves with the boat, which was not an easy feet. This is a small family business who is taking great care to make sure everyone has the day of a lifetime. Thank you guys so much for exceeding all of our expectations.
