Activities from the West Side

Nā Pali Coast Boat Tour

Cruise beneath 3,000-foot cliffs into sea caves — with dolphins riding the bow.

<p>Catamarans and rigid-hull rafts run from Port Allen and Kikiaola up the full Nā Pali coast: cathedral cliffs, waterfalls falling straight to the sea, and (summer, calm days) raft runs into the sea caves. Winter swells shift trips to whale-watching or cancel them; snorkel-and-sail combos add a reef stop. If you do one splurge on Kauaʻi that isn't a helicopter, it's this.</p>
