There’s nothing quite like a Hawaiian sunset viewed from the ocean. Delight in a picturesque cruise along the West Oahu coastline, witnessing the sun as it dips beneath the horizon – you might even catch a glimpse of the green flash. A variety of “pupus” is available.

Look for Dolphins Hawaiian Green Sea Turtles Humpback Whales [in season], and Flying Fish
Board a sailing catamaran and sail past the immense Makaha Valley and see it in all its glory, peak to shore, in the beautiful late-afternoon lighting. The captains and crew will teach you about Hawaii’s long and storied history of the sea, from fishing, to pioneering surfing, and the Hawaiian art of way-finding
After sunset, gaze at the stars as you return to the harbor, and try to match the constellations to the Hawaiian names on a Hawaiian sky map.

Amazing experience! - Hawai’i Nautical provides such a great experience! We have done the West Oahu Sunset Cruise during our last two visits to the island and will now make it a tradition! The drinks are great, the staff super friendly, and the views amazing! Cannot recommend this cruise enough!

Sunset Cruise - This cruise was so nice. The crew was awesome, the drinks were delicious. The catamaran was the cleanest catamaran I've ever been on for a tour. Thank you Quinn and crew.

An unforgettable experience! My trip highlight! - Last evening, my friend and I went on the sunset cruise on west Oahu from Hawaii Nautical. We were picked up by Quin from the Marriott Ko Olina resort and drove about 20 minutes up the coast. All I can say is that this will be the highlight of my trip to Oahu. The 63’ sailboat cruised along the wild, stunning and jaw dropping coast with views of mountains both far and near. Think Jurassic Park. The mountains drop right into the ocean as the coastal road comes to an end. The crew was great too- kudos to Quin, Dave and Ian. They pointed out many things, answered our questions while providing drinks and a nice box of food. Three great guys who really knew what they were doing. If you want to go on a sail and see the real coastline (no high rises ), while enjoying spinner dolphins and a gorgeous sunset, I highly recommend this 2 hour trip. Thanks, guys!

Excellent cruise - We thoroughly enjoyed this cruise. The boat was beautiful and the captain and crew were very knowledgeable and friendly. We learned a lot about the island from the crew and had a peaceful and relaxing trip. I highly recommend, especially if you are staying on the west side of the island.

Beautiful sunset sail! - I was thrilled to find this sunset sail cruise on the west side of Oahu. It was about a 5 min drive from where we were staying versus having to drive all the way into Waikiki. The price was reasonable and consistent with similar experiences elsewhere. Crew was polite and engaging. There were only 4 couples on the cruise the day we went which was great because it wasn't remotely crowded. My husband and I weren't crazy about the food that was provided but had planned for dinner elsewhere anyway. I would definitely book this cruise again and recommend it to others.

Sunset in paradise. - The crew and view were amazing 🤩 I got a little sea sick and they took great care of me. The food was a bit salty and I didn’t eat it but great trip all around.
