Nā Pali Sunrise Morning Tour


Nā Pali Extreme provides, Pilakai, a personalized boat service to 6 individuals or small groups (we’ll go with as few as two for private charter, if booked in advance) and have fun while doing it.

We run our charter with a private guide and boat operator. If you are looking for relaxation and some adventure, then you’ve come to the right spot. When we’re not surfing, sailing, hiking or rafting elsewhere, we charter our 30 ft World Cat along the Nā Pali Coast of Kaua’i.

We do education and preservation work throughout the year, as well as escort research groups for local sustainability and technology to protect the majestic landscapes we all enjoy.
