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.

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!

sailing lessons in Honolulu

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. 😉

DON’T DREAM YOUR LIFE, LIVE YOUR DREAM
