Private boat tours in Hawaii are available with Sail Blue Hawaii. Weekends and holidays fill quickly so plan ahead and book today. A private boat tour in Waikiki is affordable and highly desired. Our private yacht is spacious featuring covered and open air seating as well as an onboard restroom. Your experienced captain will ensure your safety and enjoyment.

Chose a Waikiki Private Sailing Charter

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. 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 the afternoon seabreeze. 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.

Private Waikiki Boat Tours

Sail Blue Hawaii’s tours are for both tourists and locals. Sunset cruises, sunrise cruising, tradewind day-sailing, coastline sightseeing and Friday night fireworks are among the most popular tours in Waikiki. Birthday celebrations and life memorials are also very popular. We accommodate a wide range of special events aboard.

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

Private Sailing Charters

Oh !! the luxury and awe of sailing your own private yacht in Hawaii. Sail Hawaii’s best charter boat,”Kaikiwi”, the best-kept charter boat in the islands. She is a US Coast Guard approved vessel, perfect for any kind of Hawaii sailing. Whether it’s an intimate sunset sail for two, an adventurous day-sail with family and friends, whale watching, entertaining business colleagues, watching sunrise over Diamond Head, saying “I do” under a full moon…the reasons to go sailing on “Kaikiwi” are endless and the experience will most probably be the highlight of your Hawaii vacation.

When is the best time to go sailing 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 of day is a good time to go sailing…✨SUNRISE, morning, afternoon, SUNSET.✨  It is all good. 

“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.

What does “Kaikiwi” mean?

“Kai” in Hawaiian means “salt water”; “kiwi”… enough said (unless you are unfamiliar with the global nickname for a New Zealander). “Salt water kiwi” perfectly sums up the captain and her beloved 42-ft Beneteau :-).

Don’t Dream your Life, Live your Dream

Sail Blue Hawaii on Oahu provides an unparalleled sailing experience, offering guests the chance to explore the island’s breathtaking coastlines and clear blue waters. Captain Gaelyn, their knowledgeable captain, ensures a personalized and memorable sail across Oahu’s stunning seascape. Email Sail Blue Hawaii to sail on Hawaii’s best charter boat, “Kaikiwi”.

Sail Hawaii’s Best at Sunrise

Any reason is a great one to get out of bed early and sail Hawaii’s best at sunrise. This is an experience you will remember forever: our Diamond Head sunrise Cruise. Greet the new day aboard your private sailboat “Kaikiwi“. This is not only a great photo opportunity but a beautiful time of day to sail : a special way to remember your vacation in Honolulu. Certainly not everyone is an early riser but the view of Diamond Head, the early sun’s effect on the water, the sounds of early morning wind in the sails…it is so well worth the effort. And the view of early morning Waikiki is Waikiki at its best!  (Yes, the best way to see Waikiki is from a distance:-), on your very own private sailing charter.

Oahu Sunrise Cruise

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, you could include sunrise with your private sailing lesson.

Any time, any reason…Sailing Hawaii’s best at sunrise will be your vacation highlight

You certainly won’t regret getting out of bed early!  Contact Sail Blue HI today to Sail Hawaii’s best at sunrise.

Learn to sail in Hawaii

Whether you’re an avid sailor wishing to hone your skills or a newbie, you can learn to sail in Hawaii. Hawaii waters have some of the best sailing conditions on the planet. Learn the ropes with Sail Blue Hawaii and discover the excitement of yachting.

Talking about “learning the ropes,” the first thing you learn in boating 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 during sailing lessons, does indeed have its own language. This language is learned over time by just being around sailors and by being onboard. Sit back and listen and you can learn a lot through osmosis. Participate, ask questions, listen and learn and you will soon be talking this language too. What fun!
