As captain of your private sail boat, I am honoured to help facilitate your Hawaii ash scattering/ life celebration at sea.
Your ash scattering includes a private sailing charter
A reflective sail to Diamond Head establishes the mood for your ash scattering/ life celebration. How often are we surrounded by rainbows during this boat tour? Almost always. Talk about setting the mood!
Take as long as you need to talk about your loved one as you scatter their ashes and celebrate their life. Bring as many un-strung flowers/petals as you want. When all is done, an easy down-wind sail brings you back to the harbour.
When is the best time to sail?
Anytime is good…sunrise, sunset, morning, afternoon..you choose.
I hope your days here in Hawaii have lots of sunshine and brightness to them. Hawaii is such a healing place…immerse yourself in that richness while here, and take it with you when you leave.
Choose Sail Blue Hawaii for your Hawaii ash scattering/ life celebration.
It’s hot. Its summer. How best to escape the heat than to get on your own private yacht and enjoy Waikiki’s BEST boat tour. Private sailing (you are not sharing the boat with another group) on “Kaikiwi”, the 42 ft Beneteau 411 featured here on my website, has lots of shade so time of day does not affect heat/ sun exposure. It also has lots of space for “bow babes” to soak up the sun and get that rich Hawaiian sun tan. “Kaikiwi” is your yacht for however long you want to sail.
Enjoy a cooling Hawaii trade wind sail.
Feel the fresh trade wind cooling you off immediately as we set sail (YES, we actually DO sail) from Kewalo Basin, 2 miles west of Waikiki. 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 balmy year-round trade winds, so, any time is a good time to go sailing…..✨✨enjoy a magical SUNRISE cruise, a full sail morning and afternoon adventure sail, or a romantic/ peaceful SUNSET cruise.✨✨. It is all good.
Sail BLUE Hawaii does not have a liquor license, so please do bring your beverage of choice to help keep you hydrated and COOL (water is supplied). There is ice and a cooler on board for your convenience.
Why choose a sailing charter?
Any occasion is a great one to get out sailing on Hawaiian waters, to enjoy some relaxing and refreshing ocean time, privately and with loved ones. You are NOT sailing with “49 of your closest friends”. 30-60 pax boats, sailing masses of strangers together, seem to have taken over our waters. Sail BLUE Hawaii offers an intimate and exciting atmosphere where you can lay back and catch up with friends and family. Or just spend some quiet and reflective time on your own at the bow. Yes, this is custom sailing…your choice of gentle or adventurous…your captain LISTENS to your specific request.
Whether you are a seasoned sailor or have never been on a sail boat before, the “oh yes” you feel ( or murmur or SHOUT!) when the sails are set and that engine is turned off is real. I hear the sighs of peace/ relief every time…sailor and newbie alike. No engine, much peace. So, say goodbye to the noisy, smelly motorised boat tours that speed through the waves giving you whiplash (and others boat wake :-() ) and are so annoyingly noisy..so much so you can’t even sit back and relax and chat.
Sign up for Sail BLUE Hawaii’s custom private charter, Waikiki’s best boat tour, the one with NO engine noise and smells because, yes, we actually SAIL.
custom sailing…your choice of gentle or adventurous…your captain LISTENS to your specific request.
Enjoy Hawaii’s BEST July 4th boat charter…whether you are local (or, ESPecially if you are local !!) or tourist, you will not regret sailing with Sail BLUE Hawaii. The experience may well be the highlight of your HI vacation or the end of your work week.
Where do we go?
“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.
Because this is custom sailing, we can sail any time of day you want and whatever length of time you wish. Our islands are almost consistently graced with trade winds so any time is a good time to go sailing…✨✨✨magical SUNRISE cruise, full-sail morning and afternoon, romantic/ peaceful SUNSET cruise.✨✨✨ It is all good.
July 4th Fireworks
The Waikiki fireworks show that were especially dynamic, are still not happening after a long break since the pandemic. If you wish to see fireworks from your private yacht, they will appear from far away; after the 8pm Hilton show. Worth staying out late for? Maybe. Either way, choose your time of day and enjoy your day off by laying back on your private sailing charter. Choose Sail BLUE Hawaii, Hawaii’s BEST custom July 4th private boat charter.
