RATED 4.5 STARS ON TRIPADVISOR!

Great time snorkeling with this crew! We saw a lot of fish and many sea turtles. My daughter loved jumping off the side of the boat over and over! Drinks were great too!

My husband and I had a wonderful time on the 2:30 Sunset Cruise. The guys sailing us out were super nice. It was beautiful on the water, and we even saw a turtle in the water! The Mai Tai drinks they had on board, were actually the best we had the entire trip. I would defiantly recommend this experience! P.S. you could get soaked...we did :-)

So much fun! One of the more affordable sunset cruises and 100% worth it. The workers on the boat were friendly and upbeat and did a great job of cultivating a fun vibe. Would do it again in a heartbeat.

Best part of my trip! Kalani, Mina, Mitchell and Justin were great. Super nice and friendly. The views during sunset were incredible. I will definitely be booking this again when I come back to Waikiki. Thanks Manu Kai crew!

This was a great experience. We went on the morning snorkel tour and had a fantastic time! The boat comes right to the beach at Waikiki. The people were fantastic!!! We saw 3 turtles and lots of fish at turtle canyon.

We did the Diamond Head Tour and had a great time. This is a 90 min tour with sails up. Captain and crew were great. Great views of Waikiki and Diamond Head from the boat. The Manu Kai is small enough that you really felt the waves and were really sailing. Crew were manning the sails but still had time to make sure you had mai tais. Overall a great time and highly recommend.

Well worth the money. Great crew, drinks included. Plenty of room on the boat. Friendly atmosphere. Bring a camera or iPhone, maybe a sweatshirt for after sunset. Expect to have a great time for $40.00. Definitely would go again.

We chose Manu Kai for the mid morning turtle snorkel at Turtle Canyon and had a terrific time. We saw plenty of turtles and fish and enjoyed the professional but casual, laid back vibe of the crew. Jess in particular was outstanding (with a background in marine biology). Post our snorkel we headed towards Diamond Head for a great view of the beach and were lucky enough to see dolphins at play. A great morning trip.

Standing 32 feet long and 16 feet wide, the Mana Kai accommodates up to 26 passengers. Our famous Hawaiian Rainbow sail, lounge net, and pleasant sound system all add to your sailing pleasure. We are an environmentally-friendly, USCG certified vessel. Our catamaran is located on Waikiki Beach in front of the world-famous Duke Statue and on the beachfront of the Hyatt Regency Hotels. Reservations are welcome online, by phone, or walk-up (subject to availability). Come join us on your next sailing experience an explore Waikiki in style!

Amazing value, and awesome experience. We are an Aussie family of 5 with teenage children. We had looked at competitor prices and packages and chose Kepoikai II because it didn't have an unlimited drinks offering and it seemed very good value. Although it is shorter than other sunset trips, we had more than enough time, the kids had a blast lying in the net at the front and getting saturated by the waves and the beers were only $4!! No need to spend the extra on all the competitors - just go with these guys. You won't regret the decision :-) Jeremy

Photo of Reese M.

We enjoyed our voyage upon the Kepoikai II Catamaran. I chose Kepoikai because I wanted a chill cruise for my family, minus the drunk adults that can be found boarding the other catamarans. The crew and captain exceeded my expectations and I'll be sure to sail again. Be sure to make your way at least 10-15 minutes before your sail time. They're located on the shoreline of Waikiki Beach between the Royal Hawaiian Hotel and the main Outrigger Waikiki Beach Hotel, in front of Dukes Waikiki.

Best boat on the beach! Best captain on the beach! Best memories every time! This was probably my sixth time on this cruise and I love it more every time. This cruise was for the memorial of my little brother who used to work on this boat. Capt Jay and his crew were so kind during our event and gave us plenty of time to reflect. It was a great way to say farewell to Jonny.

This is our second time. We have done private and regular sunset tours. Both times were amazing. We love the ocean and going on boats. Love that the crew is great with babies and people of all different types of needs. Pics are of the sites of the sail.

catamaran duke's waikiki

Absolutely loved this experience, especially for only $30 per person. Make sure you are boarding the Kepoikai II as we almost boarded a different catamaran. When you get on, be careful as you need to duck to get in and out. Once on the catamaran, there's seating in the back and front. You will need to take your shoes off as it gets slippery on the boat. You can also leave your bags with your shoes if you're sitting in the front where the nets are. We sat here the whole time, which was so nice. But be warned as you are going to get soaked. They did warn us that we'd get wet, but I was completely soaked and my drink was filled with ocean water by the end of the trip. The waves got bumpy, but it was fun and entertaining. They also offer a premix mai tai for $6, beers for $4, and waters for $2. It's very affordable but you can also bring your own alcohol as long as it's not glass. The people working on the boat even brought our drinks to us, so we didn't have to leave our spot. Note that cash and card is accepted as well, so don't fret and enjoy it. This was such a fun experience to see the island from the ocean view. The views of Diamond Head Crater on one side and the golden hour from sunset on the other was perfect. This is great for couples, friends, and families.

The staff was absolutely amazing! Second trip on Kepoikai II and it was a good as the first time. Highly tempting, the staff makes his experience worth doing.

Beautiful and welcoming business! Unko jay and his crew provides safety and the ALOHA spirit never lacks. Been going on rides since before I could walk.

catamaran duke's waikiki

Inexpensive cruise, inexpensive drinks, an awesome crew, and a great time! I'd definitely come back and do this sunset cruise again. Be sure to check in early to pick your spot on the boat first. We had the best time sitting near the front of the boat.

catamaran duke's waikiki

The captain was amazing. It was a super windy day, so it was not for the faint of heart, but as a catamaran owner, I found it to be an absolute blast . I have also been out on calmer days which is fun and relaxing as well. Regardless of the winds, you will be guaranteed a beautiful scenic catamaran ride.

I am one who has not gone into the Pacific Ocean in YEARS. I've not been to any beach park in YEARS. and if memory serves me properly, I don't think I've ever walked along Waikiki Beach. So that being said, this catamaran journey was a definite experience! and a FIRST! Here is my story: My friend invites me to join his group on a sunset catamaran cruise. I don't know what possessed me to say ok but I did and dragged my BFF along for support. (No regrets) Getting there and parking: Take Uber in to Waikiki; specifically to the Royal Hawaiian Hotel where the Kepoikai II is moored. Otherwise, valet your car with the RHH or Sheraton. Note that if you valet with the Sheraton, I'm pretty sure you'll need to patronize on of the Sheraton's dining facilities to validate your parking. Or park at the RHC parking structure and stop in for coffee or something on your way home. Merchants at the RHC will validate and if you do that , make sure you go to the RHC Visitor Center as Kamaaina gets free parking with vailidation Getting to Kepoikai II: Walk through the hotel lobby and head towards the swimming pool. Cut through the swimming pool area to the beach itself. There are several catamarans moored out there so be sure you find Kepoikai. Note you are going to have to wade to the ladder to get onto the catamaran. WEAR BEACH CLOTHES. (don't me like me! Dummy that I am with shoes and long legging) Riding the KepoikaiII; Go for the sunset cruise!!! It is the best. Cruise lasts about 1 1/2 hours. The have water and maitais on the tour. You can also bring your own water and soft and hard drinks.... Don't imbibe in adult beverages if you are allergic to motion sickness. The Kepoikai II carries 40 passengers plus their crew. It might be a good venue for a company party or group get together.... Oh, Tips to the crew while not required is recommended and appreciated. A definite must try and a definite repeat for me!

The crew was nice. The cost was to include 3 Mai Tais. Whatever they served us was not Mai Tais. They didn’t look or taste like Mai Tais, no juices or dark rum. We had fun but they need to improve the drinks and actual ... ly provide Mai Tais not something they concocted with white rum And ginger ale. What we got was not what we paid for.

This activity is so much fun! Round trip it took about 2 hours from getting on to getting off the boat, so it's perfect if you're looking for a quick boat ride while in Waikiki. The fireworks show were great and the perf ... ect start or ending to a Friday night. The crew we had was amazing - very quick bar service, very stiff drinks, and they were the most helpful and fun! You can tell I was having a good time by the attached photo lol. FYI you will get a bit wet if you choose to sit on the catamaran's net seating at the front, but the boat is very comfortable and everyone had a good view from anywhere they were seated while the fireworks were going on. Also FYI they don't let the sails down during this night boat trip. Definitely recommend for just an easygoing and cool experience.

Amazing view to the island and the fireworks, good vibes and music on the catamaran.

It was quite a pleasant experience, the staff was very friendly, the catamaran was clean and tidy, the bar service was quick. The view to the island and the fireworks was amazing. Really recommend the experience if you a ... re in Waikiki on a Friday evening.
