What to expect
Your Nā Pali Ocean Raft Tour begins on our 30-foot Zodiac© raft. We take you to Kauai’s remote Nā Pali Coast for an unforgettable adventure! Be ready for excitement as you encounter playful pods of Spinner and Bottlenose dolphins. From Dec-April, you might see Hawaiian Humpback whales. The tour continues past miles of sandy beaches to the stunning cliffs of Nā Pali Coast. Enjoy incredible scenery with magnificent beaches, cliffs, valleys, waterfalls, and sea caves (conditions permitting). The narrated tour is filled with history. Snorkeling in a pristine bay with amazing underwater life is included if conditions permit. Light snacks and beverages are served.
WARNING: The Zodiac© raft makes for a wild, fast, and rough ride. We compare it to white water rafting (on the ocean). Due to the nature of the Nā Pali Raft & Snorkel Adventure, you must be ready to experience ADVENTURE ON THE SEA! You must be in good physical condition to attend. We cannot accommodate pregnant women, anyone with back or neck problems, medical conditions, or recent surgeries. If you are not a strong ocean swimmer or cannot swim, you are prohibited from snorkeling during the tour. Thank you for understanding.
