5 BEST private HAWAII sailing charter ideas

  1. Sign up for a brilliant tradewind full-sail private sailing charter. You’re on your own yacht with just you and your’s in your bubble. How more perfect can it be?
  2. A private sailing charter sails past beautiful coastline in the cobalt blue blue waters of our Pacific.  Wildlife such as green sea turtles, “honu”, dolphins, “nai’a”, humpback whales, “kohola” (in winter season only), and flying fish, “malolo” are some of the critters we may see as we sail. Beautiful views of Oahu, Diamond Head and, on clear days, far in the distance, Molokai and Lanai can sometimes be seen. This is not “destination” sailing.  “Destination” is sailing. Last week as we sailed, we saw an endangered monk seal. This week a monk seal has given birth and she and her pup are hanging out at Kaimana Beach!

3. As we sail, especially in winter months, there is a huge chance we will see rainbows which thrill as they follow us as we sail up the coast.

4. If conditions are light, we’ll sail outside the shelter of Diamond Head where wind and waves are bigger, perhaps spraying you with delight. It is a rare day we get outside the shipping lanes!

5. I was asked the other day: “don’t you ever get bored sailing every day, doing the same thing every day?”. I was speechless. Every day the ocean is different, the weather is different, and YOU, the client, are different. Such variety! Such entertainment for me! Welcome to my OFFICE!!

So, come on sailor and non-sailor alike: Let’s throw off the dock lines and explore my office by signing up for your very own Honolulu Hawaii private sailing charter. It doesn’t get any better than this!

Private sailing charter in Hawaii

There are many reasons to choose a private sailing charter in Hawaii.

You may never know why you go or how it will change you, but listen to this: last night my sunset cruise (repeat) clients said: last time, after their cruise with me, they went home and took up the boating life! Yep, they went and bought a boat! And have spent the last 4 years cruising the Chesapeake. I was thrilled to hear this. I am not saying after you sail with me you will go buy a boat. After all, the best boat to have is someone else’s. 🙂

What’s so thrilling about a boating lifestyle?

It’s not just romance but you sure can find that. It’s not just freedom but you sure will find that. It’s not just sunsets but you sure will soak them in…maybe even see the green flash. It’s not just rainbows but they will deliver your pot of gold. It’s not just hands on the wheel but YES, the wheel is yours. These are just glimpses of the boating life. Whether you are a sailor or a power boater, at the end of the day, it’s the magic there. You’ve sailed or powered to an anchorage far from everyday life. And this is therapy at its best.

Sailing Yacht Rental Hawaii

Our current tradewind flow made for a beyond awesome day-sail yesterday for a couple’s sailing yacht rental while in Hawaii. Typically, for a private day-sail charter, clients choose 2-, 3- or 5- hour sails. Because yesterdays’ tradewinds were in the range of 15 knots we were able to sail way beyond the Diamond Head wind line. Fabulous. We found a false orca whale swimming around..that is a seldom sight.

What time of day is best for a private sail in Hawaii.

Because this is custom sailing, we can sail any time of day you want and whatever length of time you wish. Our islands are most consistently graced with trade winds so any time is a good time to go sailing…✨SUNRISE, morning, afternoon, SUNSET✨.  It is all good.  You can email Sail Blue Hawaii NOW to sign up for a sunrise cruise, a day-sail, or a magical sunset cruise.

Where are we sailing to?

While on your private sailing yacht rental, we sail from Oahu’s south (protected) shore, not far from Waikiki, past beautiful coastline in the cobalt blue blue waters of our Pacific.  Wildlife such as green sea turtles, “honu”, dolphins, “nai’a”, humpback whales, “kohola” (in winter season only), and flying fish, “malolo” are some of the critters we may see as we sail. Beautiful views of Oahu, Diamond Head and, on clear days, far in the distance, Molokai and Lanai can sometimes be seen. Please understand this is not “destination” sailing.  “Destination” is sailing.

Oahu private sailing charter

While visiting Hawaii, treat yourselves to an Oahu private sailing charter. Getting away from the hustle and bustle of Waikiki and Honolulu, the wind is our engine and the ocean is our playground. I always say the best way to see Waikiki is from a distance. 😎 Everyone agrees.

Where are we going?

“Kaikiwi” sails from Oahu’s south (protected) shore, not far from Waikiki, past beautiful coastline in the cobalt blue blue waters of our Pacific.  Wildlife such as green sea turtles, “honu”, dolphins, “nai’a”, humpback whales, “kohola” (in winter season only), and flying fish, “malolo” are some of the critters we may see as we sail. Beautiful views of Oahu, Diamond Head and, on clear days, far in the distance, Molokai and Lanai can sometimes be seen. Please understand this is not “destination” sailing.  “Destination” is sailing.

Just yesterday the air was so clear, it was magical. We could even see as far as Maui…straight through the channel to Lahaina. That happens once in a blue moon.

Speaking of Lahaina and Maui. Our hearts continue to break as the impacts reach further and deeper, far and wide. Please check out where you can help our families and businesses there. I don’t single out a particular organisation, but there is a list on my website. Please give where you can and PLEASE DO NOT CANCEL YOUR HAWAII VACATION. WE NEED YOU MORE THAN EVER NOW.

When should we sail?

Because this is custom sailing, we can sail any time of day you want and whatever length of time you wish.
