The cost of a private boat tour in Waikiki is affordable and highly desired. Your private yacht is spacious, featuring covered and open air seating as well as an onboard restroom.

Dreams come true in BLUE 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 cruise, tradewind day-sail, SUNSET cruise✨.  It is all good. A client this week was concerned if we left at 0800 for a 3-hour sail we wouldn’t have enough wind. So much sailing, anywhere in the world, relies on an afternoon sea breeze. The fact is, we rely on tradewinds and not sea/land breezes. This makes Hawaii sailing unique and desirable, ANY TIME OF DAY. His concern was also the mid-day heat. “Kaikiwi” has lots of shade, so, time of day does not affect heat/ sun exposure.

Don’t dream your life, live your dream

Private Waikiki boat tours with Sail Blue Hawaii are for both tourists and locals looking to rent a private boat. Tradewind sailing, sunset cruising, coastline sightseeing and Friday night fireworks are among the most popular tours in Waikiki. Birthday and life memorials are also very popular. We accommodate a wide range of special events aboard. The Horizon is no limit.

So, give Sail Blue Hawaii a call for your own private boat tour in Waikiki.

Learn to sail in Hawaii

The Louis Vuitton Cup is at this moment being sailed in Barcelona. Whether you’re an avid Cup follower and know a bit or a lot about sailing, or just interested in sailing lessons to learn the ropes, Sail Blue Hawaii can give you a lesson at your level. By the way, the LVC leads up to the America’s Cup, the most exciting event in yacht racing. Well worth watching at any stage of sailing know-how.

Talking about “learning the ropes”

Choose Sail Blue Hawaii for a genuine sailing lesson aboard your own private yacht. Talking about “learning the ropes,” the first thing you learn in sailing is that they are “lines”, not ropes. A rookie shows who s/he is because their ease (or lack of) with the nautical language will give them away in a heartbeat. And there is nothing wrong with being a rookie…we all start at the beginning. Boating, and especially sailing, does indeed have its own language and it is learned over time by just being around sailors and being onboard. Sit back and listen and you can learn a lot through osmosis. OR, participate, ask questions, and learn with hands-on, and you will soon be talking this language too. What fun!

You can understand from the way these docklines above are tied what kind of boater each is. You can even maybe sum up how they handle their boat and, perhaps, how “bristol” (shipshape) their boat is. Two different styles, indeed! I know whose boat I want to sail on.

Come on over to Sail Blue Hawaii….

…. for some Oahu sailing. If you don’t care for a sailing lesson, GREAT!..just sit back, relax, indulge yourself in a private sailing charter and the gift of “just being out there” and I bet you go home with some of that nautical language in your head, whether you want it there or not. 😉

-Mark Twain
