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.

Where do we sail to?

“Kaikiwi” sails from Oahu’s (protected) south shore, near 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. We do look for mermaids too. The first to see one gets a free boat ride. 🙂
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.

Let’s go Sailing in Hawaii

Sail Blue Hawaii on Oahu provides an unparalleled sailing experience, offering guests the chance to explore the island’s breathtaking coastlines and clear azure blue waters. Whether it’s a romantic sunset cruise, a private sunrise cruise, a tradewind sailing adventure, or a relaxing day-sail, Sail Blue Hawaii’s knowledgeable captain ensures a personalized and memorable journey across Oahu’s stunning seascape. Let’s go sailing in Hawaii !

What kind of vessel will we be sailing?

Your safety and comfort are our number one concern: our vessels meet all U.S. Coast Guard inspection requirements.

Kaikiwi is a 42-foot Beneteau 411 and a wonderful sailing machine for Hawaiian waters. She is well proven: Capt. Gaelyn sailed her home from Mexico with two crew and was delighted with the way she handled in all conditions.

Kaikiwi  is offered for day-sailing only (up to 6 passengers). Inter-island/ overnight charters are NOT currently offered. Larger vessels, for 7 + passengers, are also available for all DAY-sailing occasions and custom cruising. 

Kaikiwi  has lots of shade so time of day does not affect heat/ sun exposure. Sailing in summer months is very very comfortable even in the middle of the day.

DON’T DREAM YOUR LIFE, LIVE YOUR DREAM

I am surprised by the number of clients who come to me and say “I’ve always dreamed of sailing but never had the chance until now”. Or, “all my life I have wanted to learn how to sail. Thank you Sail Blue HI for introducing me to sailing by offering me a top-notch CUSTOMIZED sailing lesson. Wow. I want more”. A sailing lesson is a beautiful gift to give at birthdays or Christmas. It will be remembered for a life-time as a highlight. Gift certificates are available for any kind of sailing.

Don’t Dream your Life, Live your Dream

So, again, when is the best time to sail your very own Hawaii Private Sailboat charter? EVERY TIME of day, all day long; LOL. I obviously am biased. After your time of day has been chosen, some people prefer the beginning of their vacation to relax into it by hanging back and just listening to the wind and enjoying their on-board company; others choose a day-sail according to what they feel might be the biggest wind day because they want adrenaline; others sail their last evening to relax into their final sunset. There are a myriad of choices for a myriad of personalities. It truly is all good and can be customised. So, here is what else I have heard from clients:

  • This group sailed the first or second day of their vacation; after the sail it was stated: “anything after this is going to be boring!” (oh no! They did of course find plenty to excite them through their week. HOWEVER, we do all know hot exclamation in the moment !)
  • This group sailed the first day of their vacation: “What a terrific way to begin our vacation! We cannot wait for tomorrow”!
  • “Sailing with you has been the highlight of our vacation”. From groups who have been on island a few days through to their very last day. Extremely sad to be leaving they ask: “Can we come back tomorrow PLEASE”. Cute. Do come back, yes, or next year!! (I have had a group who had so much fun they did come back “tomorrow”; another “next week”.)
  • “What an incredible way to finish our vacation ..the best activity, the best day of them all. THE HIGHLIGHT. ” Final-day vacationers.
