You have to experience “The Lucky Lady”!!

We had the best time on the Lucky Lady! The views were unreal, snorkeling was so awesome and the staff on board was amazing! They were so attentive and kind, making sure you always had what you need. This was the best way to see the Nā Pali Coast… we saw dolphins, sea turtles and so many fish! Would highly recommend! Side note: if you are prone to motion sickness, definitely take something or use a patch to prevent it!

Fun experience. The...

Fun experience. The captain and crew were friendly and made sure that everyone was well cared for. Offered plenty of food and drinks, looked after the guests who felt sea sick, offered all of the needed supplies to make snorkeling a fun experience. The water/waves were very agreeable on the day of our trip, better than usual according to the captain. I took my 4 year old son and he had a good time.

Great crew and boat trip.

What a great trip and crew. From the moment we stepped on the boat they were all there to take care of us. We saw some incredible view of the Na Pali coast, even got under a waterfall thanks to the fantastic boat cabin. Loved hearing about the history about everything we saw.

Beautiful views and fun snorkeling adventure.

We enjoyed the many gorgeous views on our Napali adventure. Evan, our captain, was informative, friendly, and showed us many notable views off the Napali coast. We got to see several types of dolphins and flying fish on our way up. The day was clear with beautiful weather, but even so, the waves tend to be quite choppy so those who are prone to motion sickness should beware and be prepared! Snorkeling was fun and we got to see many tropical brightly colored fish. Shout out to the crew, Avery, Josh/Chuck, and Lauren who spent the day making sure everyone was taken care of!

The Lucky Lady delivers adventure and fun!

My family and I went out on the Napali coast morning snorkel adventure on the Lucky Lady. We got lucky with an amazing weather day. The experience was great from booking to the excursion. The communication was great, the captain and staff were very safety focused while providing a great experience. The cruise up the coast started smooth and we were lucky to see a pod of spinner dolphins right out of the harbor. As we set out up the coast the ride was pretty smooth. As the boat gets more into the Napali coast the water can be choppy and the boat can pitch in the water. I and my family felt safe and the captain and crew were great. We stopped for a snorkel under some amazing cliffs and enjoyed some beautiful water and views. The Captain did a great job of telling us about the coast and some historical facts about the native people. The cruise back down the coast was much smoother as we were headed with the swell and wind. After we turned around we were served lunch, cookies, and some killer Mai Tai's and beverages. I didn't take Dramamine as I have spent a lot of time on boats. My family did take Dramamine and feel like it helped ward off any potential sea sickness. If you don't bring any you can purchase it in the office when you arrive. Our experience aboard the Lucky Lady was amazing, and you should definitely put this on your must do list while on Kauai.

First time to Napali Coast

Our experience was awesome! From the start the captain was very informative and laid out the plan for the day. The crew was also amazing and made sure everyone was taken care of the whole time while also being social and fun. It was a 5 hour tour and well worth the money. The captain made safety the top priority which was appreciated. The food and the snorkeling were also awesome! We hope to make it back to Kauai someday soon and we’d love to take this tour again. The views alone are well worth the price!

Go for the views not the snorkeling

The boat tour of Na Pali was amazing, but the snorkeling was disappointing, very few fish to see and I had several baby jellyfish stings. they served great sandwich lunch and the Mai tai’s were delicious. The crew was excellent and very informative and we saw several dolphins which was an excellent experience.

Operator response

The tours really are scenic adventures of our magnificent NāPali Coast. We're sorry to hear about the jelly fish stings, I have not heard that one. Mahalo for joining us
