5 BEST HONOLULU PRIVATE SAILING CHARTER IDEAS

Honolulu TRADEWIND sailing, where any time is a good time to be on the water. Highlight your Hawaii vacation aboard a sailboat on our beautiful cobalt blue Pacific Ocean. Here is our recommendation on SOME OF the MANY 5 best Honolulu private sailing charter ideas.

Private Sailing ideas; Waikiki, Hawaii

  1. A tradewind day-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 tradewinds so any time of day is a good time to go sailing…sunrise, morning, afternoon, or sunset. IT’S ALL GOOD!
  2. A sail to take in the beautiful views of Oahu and beyond. Outstanding views of Oahu, Diamond Head and, on clear days, far in the distance, Molokai and Lanai can sometimes be seen. This is not “destination” sailing.  “Destination” is sailing.
  3. A private day-sail to capture sightings of marine life. “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.  (I believe we did see a mermaid one time; sh sh sh……………)
  4. Birthday celebrations at sea. What better way to celebrate that special day for that special someone than aboard a private yacht charter in Honolulu?
  5. Corporate Events. Celebrate with the team onboard a sailing yacht off the Honolulu coast. How better to raise morale and reward them for a job well done?

Many many ideas for your custom cruise are accepted and sailed

This was one beautiful day to sail around Diamond Head into Maunalua Bay. My guests got the last good sailing in before Oahu was rocked by a decent winter storm. Not all Sou’Westers are bad 😎. We were lucky. What a peaceful time.

5 BEST reasons to choose a Private Hawaii Sunset Cruise

Honolulu sunset sailing: a beautiful time of day to be on the water. What can be more romantic than sunset aboard a sailboat on the Pacific Ocean. You will want to experience a sunset cruise during your vacation in Waikiki. Here are the 5 best Hawaii sunset cruise ideas:

Honolulu’s Best Sunset Cruise

  1. Have you ever seen the green flash? On your private sunset sail, this may well be what captures your joy the most. There are theories about what makes the green flash. Check them out online. I have seen more than my share of this delicious phenomenon on numerous sunset sails.
  2. The other evening, my charterer pulled off an especially perfect surprise sunset cruise for his girlfriend. She had no idea she was about to go sailing until she got to the dock. She had always expressed a desire to be on a private sail boat/ a private boat tour. It was with teary eyes she climbed on board.
  3. Of course, saying “I do” is particularly romantic at sunset: a private yacht, just the two of you and the captain. YES, this is the perfect reason to choose a sunset cruise. Sail on a Friday evening and enjoy a fireworks display just for you! A combined sunset and fireworks cruise is a highlight…how can she say anything but “yes”in this most romantic ambiance.
  4. A life celebration/ ash scattering is particularly special in the easy sunset hours. Your sunset sail with family and friends will stay in your mind forever as you remember and celebrate your loved one.
  5. Of course, you need no reason at all to choose a Hawaii sunset cruise. It is the best time of a day. Sail out there and enjoy all that Hawaii’s beauty has to offer.

Call Sail Blue Hawaii today and sign up for your own private sunset cruise. If you are especially lucky, in the winter months, your private sunset cruise may well turn into whale watching! This Hawaii Sunset Cruise could well be the highlight of ANY vacation.

Honolulu Private Boat Tour, Hawaii

Site Icon

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.

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!

Sail Blue Hawaii specialises in Private Sailing Tours on Oahu and offers all popular boat charters (sunrise cruise, day-sailing, sunset sail) and sailing instruction in Honolulu. Before you go buy that sailboat, come sail with me! Whether you are a beginner or need continued instruction, you’ll learn the important skills to gain confidence in Hawaiian waters.

Come on over to Sail Blue Hawaii for some Oahu sailing: 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.

So, if your dream is to sail the Waikiki coast or beyond, your personalized lesson is waiting for you! Learn to sail in Hawaii
