Fun fact—did you know that Holo Holo’s four tour boats were all designed and built right here on Kauai? True story! Every other tour boat operating on Kauai was ordered and delivered from a faraway factory in a faraway land, but we’re proud to say that our company’s boats were designed by our company’s founder, specifically to tackle the unique and challenging ocean conditions Kauai faces as the westernmost island of the most remote island chain in the world. Our boats will enhance your Kauai boat tour experience, and so will our personnel.
Friends, winning the title of #1 Best Boat Tour in America is a major affirmation that 1.) our company’s ideals resonate with people and 2.) we’re succeeding in realizing those ideals.
Kauai Boat Tours to the Napali Coast & Niihau
Every single day, from sunrise to sunset, Kauai’s coasts sing a unique symphony of natural wonder. There’s the intensity of the rainbows, the fluctuation of the waterfalls, the playfulness of the spinner dolphins, and the majesty of humpback whales (seasonally). It is truly music to the eyes and sustenance for the soul watching the sun rising and setting into the ocean. We’re obsessed and we believe that it’s “the best thing to do on Kauai” and no visit to Kauai is complete without experiencing the island from the water.
