Seize the adventure! Your Nā Pali Ocean Raft Tour begins on our 30-foot Zodiac© rigid-hull, inflatable raft. We take you to Kauai’s remote Nā Pali Coast for an unforgettable day of fun and excitement! Be ready for a wild adventure! Along the way you will be treated to playful pods of Hawaiian Spinner dolphins and/or Bottlenose dolphins. You may even see Hawaiian green sea turtles and the occasional endangered Hawaiian monk seal. In the winter months, Hawaiian Humpback whales abound from Dec-Apr.
The Nā Pali Ocean Raft Tour will continue past miles of white, sandy beaches, until the first cliffs of Nā Pali Coast are reached. You will be treated to incredible scenery including magnificent beaches, towering cliffs, verdant valleys, thundering waterfalls, and mysterious sea caves (entering caves may occur if conditions permit). The entire tour is narrated and filled with history and lore. There will be snorkeling in a pristine bay with amazing underwater sea life (snorkeling will only occur if conditions permit). Light snacks and beverages are served.
WARNING: The Zodiac© raft makes for a wild, wet, fast, and rough ride. We compare it to white water rafting -- on the ocean! Due to the nature of the Na Pali Coast Sea Caves Raft Expedition + Snorkel tour, you must be ready to experience ADVENTURE ON THE SEA!
- You must be in good physical condition to attend this expedition. We cannot accommodate pregnant women, anyone with back or neck problems, medical conditions or recent surgeries. If you are not a strong ocean swimmer and/or cannot swim at all, you are prohibited from snorkeling during the tour's snorkel time. Thank you for your understanding.
