Awesome! - We had such an amazing time on the sunset river cruise in Kauai! The guides were awesome—so friendly, fun, and full of great stories about the island. They really made the trip special.
It was super relaxing and a great way to soak in the beauty of Kauai. Also loved that it was only 2 hrs start to finish so it doesn’t take up your entire day like some of the other cruises on the coast. Highly recommend this cruise—great views, great vibes, and an incredible crew!

Great sunset tour - I did a catamaran tour with Kauai Beach Boys. It was great. Captain Stevie was very informative, providing tidbits of info throughout, yet not overwhelming. He was humorous as well. The trip was beautiful and the ride smooth. Sage did a great job at the bar with drinks and snacks. I recommend them.

Highly Recommend - This late afternoon cruise on Nawiliwili Bay and the Hulei’a River was extremely enjoyable. The weather was perfect, the boat was comfortable and provided an extremely smooth voyage. Stevie is a great captain, and we enjoyed his narration which included a lot of information regarding the history of Kauai and the flora and fauna found in the area. The scenery was lovely. Sage was a great first mate and bartender. We love the ocean, but are prone to seasickness, so this was the perfect Kauai boat excursion for us.
