Windblown and laughing
Scenic473469, August 2026
Amazing staff…heads in a swivel at all times. Captain was professional yet warm and personal. Had a wonderful time, had the ability to sit anywhere on the catamaran..wind, waves and incredible vistas. Had pods of dolphins travel with us.

The Captain and her crew,...
Joseph_Q, August 2026
The Captain and her crew, Luke and Coral, were great. The Captain also knew how to maneuver her catamaran to great spots and when we encountered dolphins along the way.

This is a great adventure...
Dana_H, July 2026
This is a great adventure along the coast with a wonderful snorkel spot.
The crew was great and makes sure everyone has a great time
It is bumpy and a few people got seasick. This is not a smooth and calm ride but a real adventure along the coastline

Family Fun along the Napali Coast
Jeepyg, July 2026
Our family of six had a fun and memorable experience on the Napali Coast cruise and snorkel. We highly recommend this trip, and here’s a few reasons why.
First, the crew (Captain Kelly, Coral, and Mason) were professional, engaging, and fun. The boat, “Laila,” was big enough for all guests so it didn’t feel too cramped. The food was solid, and the after snorkeling beers hit the spot! The scenery was so inspiring and the interpretation about the history of the area was a nice touch. While the snorkeling was not as good as other beaches on Kauai or other snorkeling beaches on the other islands, it was nice (requisite sea turtle spotted). Of course, as soon as we all came out of the water two monk seals showed up and started playing around and swimming close to the boat. That was so cool!
We all took bonine before the trip to help with any nausea issues. While one of our kids felt sick, she didn’t get sick. And there were plenty of white caps throughout the cruise, which made for a very lively trip!
Response from the operator · Holo Holo Charters Mahalo for such a thoughtful review! We’re so happy your family had a fun and memorable time with Captain Kelly, Coral, and Mason aboard Leila. It’s wonderful to hear you enjoyed the food, scenery and those amazing monk seal sightings! Great call taking motion sickness medication ahead of time, that really helps guests stay comfortable when the seas are lively. Thank you again for joining us and saying “YES!” to adventure! Mahalo & Aloha
