Cruise Kauai’s Nā Pali Coast aboard Lady Kailani, with guided snorkeling, twin waterslides, catered meals, and sweeping ocean views.

About this tour

Set out from Kauai for a five-hour cruise along the dramatic Nā Pali Coast aboard Lady Kailani, a 65-foot catamaran built for comfort and open-ocean views. Spacious decks, padded seating, shaded lounges, and 360-degree panoramas make the journey as memorable as the destination.

Your guided Na Pali Coast snorkel cruise includes snorkel equipment and expert instruction, plus time to explore tropical waters when conditions allow. Back on board, twin waterslides offer another way to enjoy the Pacific. Light breakfast and lunch are served, and the open bar offers beer, wine, Mai Tais for guests 21 and older, and soft drinks. Restrooms and freshwater showers are available on board.

Ocean conditions determine the route and water activities; the captain may reroute to the south coast when needed. The cruise is not suitable for expectant mothers or guests with certain mobility, injury, surgery, or joint concerns. Choose this Kauai Na Pali Coast snorkel cruise for a day of coastal scenery, time on the water, and relaxed onboard comforts.

How this score is calculated

This score is based on one provider. Viator rates it 4.82 from 120 reviews. We place that rating among all Viator ratings and weight it by its review count. If the tour is found on another provider later, both ratings are combined.

How the score works and rating distribution in Kauai
  • Each provider rating is turned into a percentile: the share of that provider's ratings it beats, weighted by review counts.
  • Listings on different providers are combined in proportion to their review counts.
  • Tours with few reviews are pulled toward the average until more reviews come in, so a handful of perfect reviews can't top the list.
  • The result is shown from 0 to 10: this tour scores 7.2.
