NA PALI
COAST DELUXE SNORKELING/SAILING BOAT TRIP:

2010 Spring Season: Daily Tours will resume: March 15th, 2010 ~
Private Charters available year round! Dry Dock Update- Captain Sundown's is back on Kauai finishing up drydock till February 7th, 2010.
The ancient volcanic emerald green cliffs of Kauai's Na Pali Coast rise
above you while you experience close encounters of the marine kind such
as spinner dolphins leaping from the water under your feet
splashing you
with salt water as you cruise safely in Kauai's North Shore's only
Sailing Catamaran. We take you "end to end" & "top to bottom"
as
Captain Bob says meaning we sail the entire Na Pali Coast and we
"tack" offshore which is the only way to view the magnificence and
scale of Na Pali. This deluxe Kauai boat trip includes
snorkeling,
fishing, legends & the best local knowledge available and a
deli
lunch!
NA
PALI SIGHTSEEING SAIL: Our
EXCLUSIVE 3 Hour Na Pali Sunset Sail! 2010 Summer Start Date TBA Mid-Late May ~ Private Charters
available year round! Dry Dock Update- Captain Sundown's is back on Kauai finishing up drydock till February 7th, 2010.
For those of our passengers
interested in a
shorter tour without the snorkeling;
this tour is designed for you in
mind! With our afternoon sightseeing sail, we'll show you the lush
sights of the Na Pali Coastline starting at the very beginning of the
Na Pali and ending with off-shore views of the very end. You'll get the
same personal atmosphere and incredible sights as only Captain
Sundown's can show you and this tour also includes an amazing and
breathtaking sunset
over famous Bali Hai (Makana Mountain). This miniature-sized three hour
boat tour doesn't mean that we shorten your Na Pali experience; you'll
still get to see the amazing views from Hanalei Bay to Pohaku'au and
beyond! For Captain Sundown's version of a three-hour tour,
we'll
reveal the Na Pali Coastline to you complete with talk story,
legends
and even light snacks and beverages (non-alcoholic)! We are the only
North Shore Tour Boat staying out until dark.

Captain
Sundown's efforts to save the endangered Hawaiian Monk Seal
The reclusive Hawaiian
Monk seal is the second most endangered marine mammal in the world,
second only to the Gray or Right Whale. We are committed to honoring,
respecting & preserving Kauai's magical environment, especially
the
coastline, waters and marine life. Our entire "ohana" (family) has volunteered their
time for the Kauai Monk Seal Watch. Capt. Bob sees this as "Malama
Aina" - the ancient Hawaiian tradition of taking care.
