The Perfect Hawaii Sunset Cruise Experience

I was going to write about something else this week, but last night changed my mind during the most perfect Hawaii sunset cruise. What made it perfect? The conditions were awesome with the 12-18 knot trade winds that Hawaii is known for. But so much more than that: a husband wishing to celebrate his wife and mother’s day with their adult children. It was a surprise for her but not the family. They were all “mum”, so to speak, and did brilliantly. “Mum” did not know what was happening until she was driven to the harbour and walked to Kaikiwi, Sail Blue Hawaii’s beautiful Beneteau 42. What a privilege for me to share their special evening.

Waikiki’s BEST Boat Tour

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.
