COAST DELUXE SNORKELING/SAILING TRIP:
Our 6 Hour Total Na Pali Snorkel Sail!
2008
Schedule:
Summer & Fall Tour: March 29th-Dec. 19th (subject
to change)
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 & we
"tack" offshore which is the only way to view the magnificence
&
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
3 Hour Na Pali Sunset Sail!
2008 Exclusive Summer Tour Schedule:
June 26th through August 28th
Reservations are available for
the
3 Hour Na Pali Sightseeing Sunset Sail starting on Thursday June
26th, 2008.
As always, this tour can be requested for an Exclusive Private Charter
by request year-round.
For those of our passengers
interested in a
shorter tour without the snorkeling, this tour is designed for you in
mind! With this afternooon and evening tour, 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 including 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)!

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. The whole family volunteers their
time for the Kauai Monk Seal Watch. Capt. Bob sees this as "Malama
Aina" - the ancient Hawaiian tradition of taking care.
