We are excited to welcome the new 'Spirit of Aloha' Catamaran to Waikiki! The new vessel will replace Port Waikiki Cruises' older catamaran currently in operation and will be one of the largest sailing catamarans on the island with room for up to 80 passengers. Port Waikiki Cruises will continue to offer its popular sailing excursions aboard the upgraded vessel, including snorkel adventures and Friday night fireworks dinner cruises.

To book a cruise on the new catamaran, visit here

Explore the Waikiki coastline aboard The Spirit of Aloha, a modern 65-foot catamaran. Its captain and crew members are available to answer questions about the ocean, navigation, sea life and marine conservation. Whales and green sea turtles are some of the creatures that can be seen on any given tour. Passengers also enjoy unobstructed views of Waikiki Beach with a backdrop of the Ko`olau mountains, and in the evenings the twinkling Honolulu skyline. The custom-designed sunset-orange and maile lei sail is a stunning contrast to the azure Pacific as it sails along the Waikiki coastline.

Amenities include a full bar with draft beer, a large fully-enclosed and covered cabin with table and bench seating, two full restrooms, freshwater shower, surround-sound system and multiple stairway entry points for snorkelers entering the water. Ample outdoor areas for sunning are also available before and after the vessel.

Overall rating

The crew was so kind and professional. We had an amazing time snorkeling and seeing the fish/turtles! This was definitely one of the highlights of our trip!

Overall, we enjoyed the trip. Staff was great! However, the snorkel spot was crowded with lots of other groups. It felt like you were bumping into people the whole time. We saw some turtles, but there wasn't much else to ... see. Also, the parking instructions are unclear. All it said was they validate in the garage, so I parked in the obvious giant garage. But they don't validate in that one (the Hale Koa). They only validate in the Hilton Garage which is harder to find. I hope they aren't unclear on purpose...that cost an extra $39!

Highlight of our trip

Captain Amy and her crew made our day! One of the highlights of our trip. We brought our very adventurous 2 and a half year old out with us to swim with turtles and the crew were amazing and supportive! Thank you l ... adies for making our day. ❤️

• Chevron down About Hawaii Nautical

Hawaii Nautical is one of Hawaii’s largest ocean-activity providers, with a fleet of vessels island-wide serving many harbors across Oahu and the Big Island. We believe in delivering service, safety, and the spirit of Aloha.

We respect the ocean and the ecosystem; we follow strict guidelines so that all marine mammals and wildlife are protected. And we honor the host-culture and support the local communities in which we operate.

We want the natural environment you enjoy today to be here tomorrow, and for every tomorrow after.

That’s why we are Hawaii’s first Dolphin Smart-recognized operator. NOAA’s Dolphin Smart educates guests about dolphin conservation and harassment and advises not to seek activities that pursue close interactions like swimming with dolphins in Hawaii in the wild.

We also follow the guidelines of the Coral Reef Alliance, to establish lasting change and promote coral reef health around the world. That includes sustainable practices — such as no fish-feeding. Coral conservation aims to save these valuable ecosystems, unite communities and preserve cultural identity.

We’ve been wowing guests of all ages for decades in Hawaii. While there’s lots of excitement around our activities, we practice the highest level of safety in everything we do. We treat guests like ohana, the Hawaiian word for family that permeates everything we do.

Waikoloa sunset cruises are a great way for people who are staying at one of the Kohala Coast resorts on the Big Island of Hawaii to get out and experience the ocean. For those who are active enough to snorkel, we would suggest one of these same boats for a Waikoloa snorkel trip instead, and for most guests they will do one or the other … but not both.

If you do wish to snorkel AND go out on a sunset cruise, we'd suggest a snorkel experience on the Fair Wind II or Captain Zodiac rafting and then do one of these sunset cruises.

Which one of these boats to reserve? Well, Spirit of Aloha runs nightly, so it is a LOT easier for us to get you space on that vessel, as long as you are planning at least a few weeks ahead of time. Sea Smoke and Spirit of Aloha are both sailing catamarans, which will be most people's preference. Sailing really adds a nice touch to the evening. Alala is a powered catamaran that USED to be a sailing catamaran. The mast was removed though as it was really a monster of a rig and no doubt expensive to maintain for the amount of use they were getting out of the sails. The one advantage that Alala has though is that it leaves from a dock at Kawaihae Harbor. It's a good option for people who don't want to get their feet wet and sandy before boarding, or would have difficulty walking on the beach.

We respect the ocean and the ecosystem, and we follow strict guidelines so that all marine wildlife is protected. Additionally, we honor the host culture and support the local communities in which we operate. We want the natural environment you enjoy today to be here tomorrow and for every tomorrow after. That’s why we are Hawaii’s first Dolphin SMART-recognized operator. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s Dolphin SMART program educates guests about dolphin conservation and advises not to seek activities that pursue close interactions like swimming with dolphins in Hawaii in the wild. We also follow the guidelines of the Coral Reef Alliance, to establish lasting change and promote coral reef health around the world. That includes sustainable practices — such as not feeding fish. Coral conservation aims to save these valuable ecosystems, unite communities and preserve cultural identity. For decades, we’ve been wowing guests of all ages in Hawaii. And while provide exciting experiences for our guests, we practice the highest level of safety in everything we do. We treat guests like ohana , the Hawaiian word for “family,” which permeates everything we do.
