Arrive early for best boarding
Plan to arrive 30 minutes prior; boarding starts 15 minutes before departure and parking is available around the north, east, and south ends of Kewalo Harbor.
Dress in layers and bring wind protection
Evenings on the water are cooler and windier than shore—carry a light windbreaker and a hat that can be secured.
Protect your electronics
Use a dry bag or waterproof case—salt spray and open decks can damage phones and cameras.
Bring motion-sickness remedies if needed
The tradewinds can create a lively ride; non-drowsy remedies or acupressure bands help keep you comfortable.
Windbreaker or light jacket
Blocks chill from tradewinds and sea spray during sunset sails.
Waterproof phone case or dry bag
Protects electronics from spray and unexpected splashes.
Sunglasses with strap
Cut glare on the water and stay secure in breezy conditions.
