Oahu Sunrise cruise

Your birthday is a great excuse to get out of bed early and experience the Diamond Head Sunrise Cruise. Greet the new day aboard our private boat charter “Kaikiwi“. Not only a great photo opportunity but something special to remember on your vacation in Honolulu. Certainly not everyone is an early riser but the view of Diamond Head is well worth the effort. And the view of early morning Waikiki is the best!  Yes, the best way to see Waikiki is from a distance.

Why go sailing while on a Hawaii Vacation?

A sunrise sailing charter starts with a lighter gentle early morning wind. Morning is also the best time for a sailing lesson. We start with a lighter wind and build your lesson as the wind builds. Your sailing lesson will begin at 0800. Earlier if you prefer, esp if you have just flown in from the east coast. Yes, include sunrise with your private sailing lesson.

Any time, any reason…YOUR private Oahu Sunrise Cruise will be your vacation highlight

You certainly won’t regret getting out of bed early!  Call today for your Oahu sunrise cruise.  Dreams come true in blue Hawaii.

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.

any time is a good time for a private sailing charter but a sunset cruise is for romantics

Let’s Go Sailing Oahu

Kaikiwi sails from Oahu’s south shore. You will embark at Kewalo Basin boat harbor, not far from Waikiki beach hotels. We sail past beautiful coastline in the cobalt blue blue waters of our Pacific. The south shore is the protected side of Oahu: calm and crystal clear, making it the perfect sailing destination.

Why go sailing Oahu

Common marine wildlife sightings on Oahu are for example, Hawaiian green sea turtles, honu, dolphins, nai’a, and humpback whales, kohola (in winter season only). In addition, flying fish, malolo are some of the critters we may see as we sail about the island. Sunrise cruise, day-sail, sunset cruise, private sailing lessons, ash scattering..are all available. This is custom cruising at it’s best.

Incredible sights while sailing

Beautiful breathtaking views of Diamond Head are just one of the highlights while sailing in Oahu. On clear days, although far in the distance, Molokai and Lanai can sometimes be seen from the island of Oahu. This is not destination sailing, destination is sailing!

While Kaikiwi is a US documented vessel she does like to fly the kiwi flag. All nationalities invited to sail!:

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. Our islands are most consistently graced with trade winds so any time is a good time to go sailing…✨choose a SUNRISE cruise, a morning or afternoon adventure, or a relaxing SUNSET cruise.✨  It is all good.
