AFTERNOON SIGHTSEE TOUR

October 1st - March 1st

Discover Nā Pali: Afternoon Sightsee Tour 

Embark on an unforgettable adventure along one of the world's most stunning coastlines with Hanalei Charters' Afternoon Sightsee Tour. Departing from Hanalei Bay, this thrilling raft tour is specially designed for the winter months on Kauai (October 1st to March 1st).

​

During Kauai's winter season, the North Shore often sees larger waves, which requires adjustments for safety. Sea cave explorations are also less frequent, as even minor swells can make it hazardous. That said, on exceptionally calm days, our seasoned captains will guide the raft into select caves to explore.​

Morning vs. Afternoon

Our Afternoon Nā Pali Sightseeing Tour is ideal choice for photography lovers. Afternoons on the coast offer the best lighting conditions as the sunlight shines directly onto the cliffs of Nā Pali at this time of day. It's always a great way to enjoy a morning exploring Kauai before heading to your tour. 

What to expect:

Our winter sightseeing tours highlight the best of Nā Pali, from towering sea cliffs and lush valleys to hidden beaches and ancient lava tubes. ​​Our custom-built adventure rafts are engineered specifically for navigating the rugged Nā Pali Coast, offering an intimate and exhilarating way to experience the crown jewel of Kauai. Capture Instagram-worthy photos at iconic viewpoints, and keep your eyes peeled for Kauai's vibrant marine life. Dolphin pods playfully surfing our wake, rare Hawaiian monk seals basking on rocks, graceful sea turtles gliding by, and even majestic rays are common sights that make every tour magical.​​​​
