Great crew. Went above and beyond to see to it that everyone on board had a good experience. Food was good and bonus of seeing whales too!

The staff was friendly, food was good, drink options were limited but good, and the view was beautiful. The waters were a little rough so take precaution if you get seasick easily. We really enjoyed the fact that we were able to be picked up from the hotel so we didn't have to drive anywhere. Overall, a great experience.

The sunset was amazing and open bar was flowing. The staff and service were attentive and prompt but that's about all we can say. We booked this tour as a romantic sunset cruise to celebrate our anniversary but while the sun was high the chance for romance was low. They packed 2 bus loads of people onto the catamaran which...

The Cruise with Hawaii Ocean Sports out of Kawaihae Harbor on the Kohala Coast of the Big Island of Hawaii was very enjoyable. It didn’t seem to matter that the harbor wasn’t exactly what we had imagined because we spent little time there, they boarded everyone and cast off right away. The catamaran was larger than I expected and had... More

Went on a "guaranteed" whale watching trip. After some spooky sounds through a radio I suspect and some " there it is, it was a fin or a tail" we returned back. I DID NOT SEE THE WHALE!. So technically the guarantee business is rather doubtful! Don't think anyone else on our bat saw it is ither. So beware when... More

Aloha Leylahni, We're sorry that you didn't see a whale on the Champagne Sunset Sail. We do not actually guarantee whale sightings on this trip though. Our guarantee is actually for the 8:00 Breakfast with the Whales, and 10:00 Whale Watch...however, if this review is for one of those trips we do acknowledge that whale sightings, especially in the beginning...

Coordination of the shuttles was a mess. Wrong pickup information provided and driver for our shuttle told us we needed to take a different one and left, then had to come back to get us. Description of activity was incomplete, failing to mention things like needing to walk through the water to get on the boat. A group of a... More

Waters were rough, which added to a bumpy ride but I loved it. For the price, you get a 2 hour cruise, good dinner and free drinks. With the rates of drinks and dinner at the resort, it's a great value! The staff is great and very friendly. I recommend!

We did this on our last night. Fun cruise, lots of food and drinks. The crew were great as was the service. Completed with an awesome sunset sipping champagne. Fabulous and a great way to end the holiday.

My wife and I did this as the part of the "Mauka to Makai" package booked through Big Island Eco Adventures. Overall, the cruise was a lot of fun. The crew was extremely polite and helpful the whole night and the boat was in great shape and very roomy, despite a (seemingly) large group. There were 2 or 3 keg-beer... More

We did this on our last evening in HI and we couldn't have chosen a better send off! We were staying at a rental house in the Kawaihae area so the shuttle pick up at the Ocean Sports store was just a few mins away. Very convenient. The Ocean Sports crew is SUPER accommodating. They make sure you have full... More
