What a day! No other company offers this amazing trip. Our premiere trip aboard Holo Holo begins with a continental breakfast as we head west & north to the majestic Napali Coast with waterfalls, lush valleys, and sea caves.

After sightseeing and hearing the history of the Napali Coast we will head across the channel to the “Forbidden Island” of Niihau. When we arrive at Niihau we’ll choose our snorkel spot around Lehua Crater or Niihau. Our caring crew will assist and instruct you in snorkeling—relax, float, and watch the comings and goings of the aquatic world. No other place in Hawaii offers you such unique formations, Niihau’s old age means it has been shaped and carved by ocean currents and waves the longest of all the Hawaiian Islands.

Note that tours often fill up 2-3 weeks in advance. Booking your tour early in your vacation window is a good idea in case weather forces us to postpone your tour.
