Lanai Catamaran Tour

Captain Kim and the crew of the Blaze II are incredible. This is not your average vacation, it’s more of an incredible and luxury sailing adventure, you’ll see and experience wonderful sites up close and dine on delicious meals. You’ll sail, motor cruise, fish, kayak, snorkel, hike and see the most beautiful and incredible sites up close all while on a wonderful 62’ boat. Don’t expect the Ritz, more of glamping accommodations but you’ll cherish every moment, just got off the boat and highly recommend.

Relaxing Boat Experience It was an amazing bridal party for my older sister’s wedding. I enjoyed the warm welcome coming from the crew for my family and I. The crew also did a great job with setting the mood for us to be comfortable and to enjoy our time together. They not only allowed us to jump off the top of the boat, took our pictures for us, but they were so gracious to serve us food as well (even though we were to provide our own food). The boat was clean, and the sound system was incredible. I’ll most definitely remember this boat, and I will be looking out to rent out this boat on my own accord for future trips when I come back to Maui.

We just returned from an amazing 6-day family trip on the Blaze II with captain Kim and first mate Desmond. We had a really wonderful experience, sailing, snorkeling, water scootering, paddle boarding and eating to our hearts content. We slept under the stars several nights on the upper deck, (leaving behind our comfortable cabins below). Despite two days of rough weather, captain Kim made sure we were safe at all times and also managed to take us around Lana’i, sightseeing and having a nice dinner on land. We saw big sea turtles, lots of whales and dolphins and lots of colorful fish snorkeling around various reefs. We had the experience of a lifetime and can’t recommend this enough.

This was my favorit vacation we ve taken in Maui. A catamaran tour for four days 3 nights. Boat was amazing. Captainand crew was attentive and always taking us great places no one goes.A must do, this was fun, relaxing and we anchored in private spots

Great time we had nothing beautiful yacht. Glad to see they are still in business after the fires. I saw some other reviews that didnt tell the correct story. This yacht is well kept foe the year and as I know anything can happen. We had couple good days of windy .

We stay on board and traveled for 5 days around thw islands. The boat was fantastic, crew awsome meals were great. I appreciate thw custom trip, catered to our needs, mom was little seasick so captain Kim took an easier route to calm the motion. Kids love the water scooters and paddle boards. I relaxed from my buzy schedual in NY. This is definitely something unique as seen on Netflix. The boat was well kept, I dont expect perfection since its 15 years old. But all system working and maybe things fail but not enough trip. Crew went swimming with us and took us all on a hike while the chef stayed back to make dinner. All went well this vacation.

Had an amazing cruise with captain Kim and Dez! Would highly recommend. This was our second time as a large family and they were awesome.

We had an amazing time with our family on a 2 day, 3 night trip with Captain Kim! She went out her way to make sure we had everything we wanted, accommodating everything for our large family vacation. She found us beautiful spots to snorkel around Lanai, explored areas of the island and the most peaceful places to sleep under the stars! We can’t wait to go back again!!!

Captain Kim and our sailing experience Our family went on a catamaran trip, 3 days and 2 nites with Captain Kim and her staff. Captain Kim is very knowledgeable and shared the history on all islands, Took us hiking,snorkeling and showed us many sites. The Chef was awesome, food delicious. Very professional but friendly, we claimed her as family❤️ thank you Captain Kim for a great trip❤️

Captain Kim, Del, and “Care” are the A-Team of care, kindness and hospitality. They are sincere, good and warm people who are invested in a top-notch sailing experience. And they do all this while effortlessly doing things that aren’t easy—like crossing an inter-island channel in a blow, finding a rather technical anchorage _perfect_ for killer snorkeling and setting an itinerary that guarantees you’ll see and do more than most. Can’t recommend this boutique business enough! I know we will be back. Many thanks Captain Kim and a big thanks to Del and Care—we love you guys!!

Captain Kim and her crew of Del and Kare are true treasures of the Sea. We were so lucky to enjoy a three day, three night charter with a Sea Captain who puts safety first and facilitating a fun time on equal measure. Captain Kim went well out of her way to show us unique experiences, and both beautiful and rare views along multiple island stops. The food was top notch and so reasonably priced with careful attention to allergens and preferences. Kare put herself out multiple times to both meet the captain’s demands and make our trip pleasurable. Del- what a genuine pearl and marvelous person to get to know! Thank you, Captain and Crew, for a marvelous time with good company. I would do it again and (hope to again) and if you are reading this you should too!

I got information i was looking for.

We had to walk 1.5 miles along the beach to get on it because of sand bars but that's not their fault. If you're ever there, you better not miss one of these opportunities.

A really great experience! Family outing with Captain Kim for a gorgeous day sailing, swimming, dinning on fresh caught fish... Make sure you book this experience when you're visiting Hawaii! This was my first time coming, and several people have been here many times. All of us loved this boat voyage on the Blaze II! Great value, and garenteed good time! Thanks again Kim, Chris, and Taylor! We won't forget this great time :))

10/10. I went with my family and had an amazing time. The crew was very friendly and welcoming. We went snorkelling and saw tons of sea life. Throughout the trip, we saw whales, turtles, fish and dolphins. An amazing experience. 100% recommend.

Went with Captain Kim and the crew for my Moms 90th birthday. It was a great experience and a beautiful day. Great food, people and amazing FUN

Simply the best tour in Hawaiian waters. Thank you crew and captain. We enjoyed the food and the boat was stable and had all the fun toys. Paddle boards and kayaks.

A Relaxing and Exhilarating Experience I had a wonderful time on my trip with Hawaiin Charters. Two of my friends and I spent four nights and five days on the Blaze 2. It was a memorable way to experience Hawaii that was relaxing and exhilarating. It was relaxing in that is a very comfortable boat. It is a 65-foot catamaran, and we all had our own cabin with an attached bathroom. There were many pleasant places to be on the boat, up top, on the trampolines on the bow, or in the cushioned stern area. Our Captain Kim ensured we were comfortable and safe. She served us plenty of fresh, delicious food, even accommodating my gluten-free diet. She had an assistant skipper, Tommy, who was very helpful, kind, and patient, and a cute little dog assistant called Rita. It was exhilarating. Being on a boat gave me incredible unique views of the islands and the sea and the best snorkeling I have ever experienced. It was so easy and fun doing it off the back of the catamaran. We sailed to Moloka'i harbor and around Lanai Island after anchoring, snorkeling, and kayaking at incredible spots. It was so beautiful that a friend and I slept outside on the trampolines one night under the stars. We saw sea turtles, dolphins, whales, sea birds, and an incredible amount of fish. It wasn't cheap, yet the experience was priceless. Well worth the money for this incredible trip.

Whale watching & sunsets ...great times!

The Blaze II is a gorgeous and super comfortable catamaran with nice cabins and bathrooms, and has an exceptionally smooth ride. Captain Kim knows the boat inside and out, and is a consummate sailor and hostess. I felt safety was always a top priority. She was also a fine cook and hostess, serving delicious, healthy meals. We went to some very unusual spots in our four days on the boat, seeing rare and beautiful marine fish and mammals. I highly recommend this experience.

Amazing and wonderful The Blaze II is a gorgeous and super comfortable boat, with comfortable cabins and bathrooms. Captain Kim is a very experienced sailor and a fine hostess, cooks healthy food, and knows the best places to snorkel and dive. We saw so many exquisite marine fish and mammals. Pretty magical!

What an amazing experience. We saw seals, bottle nose and spinner dolfins, whales and tons of turtles. Accommodations were perfect and we even slept on deck one night. Crew took great care to assure we had a great time and saw a lot of scenery. I would go again and again.

We had an awesome experience with Captain Kim, Tommy and Carol. They went above and beyond to make our excursion amazing. We had a beautiful day on the water. The guys cliff jumped. We saw whales and snorkeled. They put together a delicious lunch of fresh seafood for us. Our family would highly recommend this company.

Awesome boat, very friendly and professional crew, we had an exceptional experience, we saw whales an dolphins it was magical. Kim is very kind and knowledgeable, will definitely come back

We found them on google it was a nice boat experience. The staff was great we ate good food they took us to good snorkeling spots and we got lucky and saw whales. They provided fun toys on the boat from kayaks to water scooters which made it even more enjoyable we definitely got our moneys worth.

360 degree ocean views for 4 days A group of 6 friends celebrated a birthday on Blaze II for 4 days and 3 nights. We started in Lahaina, anchored at Honolua Bay, then sailed to Molokai & anchored at Kaunakakai harbor, then sailed to Five Needles and anchored at Manele harbor, then back to Lahaina. It was a great time. Captain Rafael, Zac & Tom are great guys. Details were scant before the trip, so we did not know what to expect. It’s best to just trust the process and know that the crew will do their best to take great care of you. It goes without saying that we enjoyed the awesome snorkeling, but we also really loved the land excursions on Molokai & Lanai. Too bad we didn’t see whales (too early in the season), but we saw some dolphins and plenty of sea turtles. The 360 ocean views are the best. The stars were amazing. Just peace and quiet.We snacked and ate well. The crew got a chocolate cake for my birthday, and Captain Rafael played the ukulele. All the sunrises & sunsets were memorableA few tips:1. Alcohol is not included, so bring your own, or ask the chef to buy it for you and bill you2. The seas can be rough. 2 of us used scopolamine patches for 1 day, which helped a lot3. Unlimited fresh water on the boat thanks to desalination by reverse osmosis!4. No wifi on the boat, but we had cell service at all the places we anchored (we had A T & T & Verizon)5. They can accommodate large suitcases on the dingy & on the boat, but if you have large hard side suitcases & get the smallest cabin, you will probably have to leave them in the dining room. You don’t need to pack much. They provide plenty of towels & snorkel gear. It never got cold.6. The outdoor shower had hot water! Amazing!

It was an extraordinary trip. The crew, the captain and everyone was very friendly, reliable and helpful! We felt at ease, relax and we had a lot of fun! Music and food was excellent. Well done!

October, 2022 had a fabulous day on the water. Sailing, swimming, snorkeling and even saw a large green turtle! The boat is well equipped and the crew were lots of fun. We were served amazing salmon, salad and fresh fruit. Plenty of room to stretch out and relax. Maybe next year we’ll do an overnight trip. Can’t wait! Mahalo Captain Kim🌸

Nothing short of an epic experience. The guys were extremely generous with educating on everything from the islands to marine life to the boat. Food was delicious and we were completely looked after as if we were family. We were upgraded as a surprise which was a real treat to the big and beautiful Blaze, which is such a cool Cat and way to see Maui from water. All of the gadgets on the boat and we particularly loved the water scooters when they took us out diving. Can’t wait to come back! Couldn’t recommend more.

Thank you so very much for an excellent trip. The boat was wonderful. And the crew so very much fun that our trip was the vacation's highlight!!

Crew was attentive and professional. The boat was lovely, and set up well for easy exit and entry for water activities. The trampoline pool is the best!! Thank you for a fabulous charter!

Our family of five including a young adult and two teens had a fantastic time on Blaze II. Captain Kim was ill the week we visited so Captain Kalai, Tommy and Lena were our crew. They took such good care of us! We chose to explore a bit more than we are told is usual. Our second day we sailed around Molokai, a mostly uninhabited and gorgeous island. The third day we sailed to the uninhabited side of Lanai. We snorkeled, paddle boarded, kayaked and swam at our fabulously gorgeous and completely private anchoring points. We didn't see another boat nor person for two days! And we got to sail with a school of dolphins. I wish I could share the video; they were right below us on the front of the boat for at least twenty minutes. It was a truly spectacular trip, one we could not have experienced any other way. Our crew was made up of native Hawaiians, the Captain a teacher of Hawaiian studies. They were so gracious in sharing their culture and customs with us. It was a joy to be on the boat and to spend time with the crew. If you are seriously considering this trip, don't hesitate. It's a truly amazing and unique way to experience the islands. We kinda feel badly for people who only stay at the resorts; they have no idea what they are missing!

Had a wonderful day on a beautiful boat! Crew was awesome!

Awesome crew took us out today on Oahu! Great food, Great Service, got to Ride on the Paddle Boards, Snorkel and kids had a fun day in the sun! We will be back!! Thank you, Kim, Carol, Tommy, Whitney & Greg! You guys are all awesome. Our family loved you all so much

Our family had the best time with Hawaiian charters! Whitney, our captain was so sweet and ensured we all had a great time. We got to snorkel, paddle board and they even blew up floaties for the kids. Definitely the best part of our trip.

Went out for a sunset whale watching cruise and had a fantastic time! Captain Kim and her crew are top notch. The food and the crews company and knowledge made this trip one of our best excursions ever. Whatever water activity you enjoy the boat can accommodate it. Highly recommend

Best family vacation! My husband, 2 kids (7 and 11) and his parents just finished a 3 night stay aboard Aloha Swim. We had such an amazing time. I was a little worried sailing with my kids that it would not be safe or that they would not appreciate sailing like the adults would, but everyone LOVED IT! Whitney and Jess worked so hard to make sure we were safe and had the best time. Whitney and Jess were so great with my kids helping them learn to snorkel and even an intro into scuba diving for my son which was the highlight of his trip! We sailed from Maui to Lanai visiting remote beautiful sites and then the best snorkeling at Manele Bay. I learned to paddle board and even saw a Monk seal on a remote beach. Then there are the whales, unbelievable to be out on your own charter watching tons of whales. Truly an amazing experience! When our trip was coming to an end I really wanted to go take a long shower prior to flying back home, our previous hotel was less than helpful in helping with a courtesy room for 1 hour to shower even though we had just stayed there for days and our luggage was still being stored there, but Kim (owner of charter company) made it happen for us. We were able to use a beach front condo for a few hours to clean up before our long flight home, so appreciated!!Check them out on Netflix- Amazing Vacation Rentals Season 1. My son thought this was soooo cool! This truly was an unforgettable vacation, can't recommend them enough!

We were on Maui in November of 2021 and booked sunset cruise off Lahaina with the Blaze II. Captain Kim and her crew were amazing hosts & very professional. Very nice trip with family and friends enjoying the warm sunny breezes while sitting on the trampolines looking down into the beautiful blue Hawaiian waters waiting for sunset! We enjoyed a wonderful display of appetizers, beverages, music and lots of laughter board the Blaze II. The coastline of Maui and the mountains was absolute breath-taking. The crew was so great about pointing out the features of Maui's coastline- we could even see the Luau going on in Lahaina from the catamaran. Such a fun and memorable trip for us. The sunset was so beautiful and was a perfect way to end the day! The Blaze II is an older boat and holds her age well. Beautiful cherry wood and teak throughout and well maintained. If you get the chanceyou must book a cruise with Captain Kim and her crew on Blaze II and enjoy the beautiful views of the island and catch a beautiful sunset-so relaxing! And don't forget he cutest senior sailor / pirate Rita the 3 legged Chihuahua-so sweet! Looking forward to be able to repeat this adventure again next year. Read less

Our family had the most amazing day on the beautiful blue water surrounding Maui. Captain Kim and the crew were awesome. The boat was immaculate and we enjoyed watching countless whales swimming nearby, snorkeling with James Bond water sleds, and viewing Maui, Lanai, Molokai & Kahoolawe while watching the sunset. It was a bucket list experience!

Sailing with Captain Kim is always fun and entertaining. I will definitely go again.

Fifth time with Hawaiian Catamaran. So much to love! They cater to your group, amount of days and weather. I love the flexibility and desire to make the trip memorable.

We had the most amazing experience on Blaze II. Ted and Christine were so friendly, accommodating and fun. The boat was clean, the food was 5 star, the beds were super comfortable. We saw tons of whales, turtles and dolphins. There were four of us and we are already talking about our next trip. I would highly recommend this to anyone considering it. We kayaked, swam, snorkeled, paddle boarded, and whale watched. There were numerous different excursions all in one and at our finger tips whenever we wanted to do something. I cannot say enough positive things about this trip!

Best vacation ever! Ted and Christine were very gracious and accommodating. They kept the boat very clean. They took us to some amazing secluded places on the islands! The food they fixed was absolutely superb. They communicated with us on the weather, gave us options each day so we could customize the trip to our desires. We had a large group of spinner dolphins which swam with our boat for a long time. Seen whales breaching and baby’s nursing (with binoculars) Kayaking, paddle boarding etc was all included. Highly recommend the Blaze II with them as the crew. Would be great for girls trip, families etc. Ted and Christine are Ohana to us now. I’d give them 10 stars if I could! We’ll be back for sure.

We had an amazing girls trip in May. It was so beautiful and relaxing. The food was amazing! Breakfast, lunch and dinner. We didn’t need to go ashore and fight the crowds. We had our chef William and Captain Kim aboard to help us with whatever we wanted to do. Sunning on the deck, kayaking along Lanai, scuba and snorkeling, you name it. The views were amazing and accommodations very comfortable.

A group of us chartered Blaze II from Lahaina Hi. We were promptly greeted by Captain Kim and her crew. As we sailed through the night under the stars, everyone felt at home and enjoyed the accommodations. Our voyage was a success and we look forward to sailing with Captain Kim again in the near future.

I have taken a charter with Captain Kim 3 times now and will definitely be back. I've been on both of her catamarans and accommodations are clean and comfortable. These trips make you feel like you're "living like a rock star" while you sail the islands, paddle board, kayak, snorkel, scuba, swim with the dolphins, learn to sail, fish/eat fresh sushi and experience exquisite cuisine. Kim lets you pick the music, dance on board and tailor your trip to meet the needs of your group. SOOO FUN!

Great trip with the most experienced Capitan in the world! Sailed with her multiple times and can’t wait for the next adventure. ⛵️

Lifestyle of the rich and famous Luxurious, pampered,unique, fun, Captain is awesome, Wow!!! Need I say more

We spent 4 days on the Blaze II. Absolutely beautiful catamaran and everyone was so welcoming. Captian Kim tried to make all four of our teenagers feel included, let two of them drive, and even pulled into her home island to get a few sea sick bands for the kids. William and Captain Kim were excellent chefs and William even remembered our daughters very specific diet issues when whipping up mid day and late night snacks. Everyone was very accommodating to whatever we wanted to do or needed. They were very patient with a couple sea sick teenagers and went out of their way to take us to special spots everyone would enjoy. With four kids, they were also very diligent when everyone was in the water, ensuring everyone was safe and had something to relax on should they get tired. There was a slight mix up with the scheduling, but Captain Kim was very quick to correct. Highly recommend for an experience of a lifetime.

Pre-trip communication was real good and got us excited. Not pushy and offers her thoughts about trip. Captain Kim picked us at the dock and brought us to the catamaran. We were spending 2 days and 1 night with Capt Dan and First mate Witney. We had an a

We went on a day sail and it was absolutely amazing. Lunch was prepared by the chef on the boat, the food was fantastic. The Captain and chef were friendly and incredibly helpful. They made our trip perfect. Thank you for a great trip and making our family of 6 feel so welcome on your beautiful catamaran.

Wonderful charter! Our Friendship Cruise was a wonderful five day experience we will always remember! The itinerary ended up as a round trip from Maui - Molokai - Lanai and back to Maui but it was mostly set by the wind conditions and our desire of the moment...awesome right!? Every stop we made was beautiful, secluded and nothing short of magical - we even requested a return visit to a lovely bay on the backside of lanai we fell in love with! Captain Kim and her co-Captain Suavic are seriously passionate about sailing! They are ultra competent and not only made us feel safe but also shared their love of the seas. Captain Kim was also our chef and fed us delicious healthy meals kindly taking into consideration our food preferences and quirks. Kim & Suavic shared many stories of their epic world sailing adventures around the dinner table. They are both all hearts and they certainly found their way into ours ❤️ The Blaze II is an impressive 62 ft catamaran. It is roomy, comfortable and impeccably clean. Our little group of five had the run of the boat and even though we had access to three nice rooms each with a private bath, most of us found ourselves sleeping outside under the stars. There are also all kinds of toys to play with on the boat including kayaks, paddle boards, and good snorkeling gear... This was a seven star cruise! We couldn’t be happier and hope to find ourselves back on Captain Kim’s boat...one day!

Greatest vacation day of our trip! Can't wait for next year. Super fun riding the waves in the jump seat, great tunes, scuba diving, relaxation and meeting new friends!! Chance of a lifetime!

Captain Kim and her crew were amazing and the catamaran was gorgeous! We had a fantastic day out whale watching! Thank you!

Kim and the crew made us feel like we were home from the very first time we got on the Blaze II. It was a magical, spiritual and fantastic experience we will not soon forget. To see the most remote and beautiful parts of the Islands as if we were the only ones there was truly amazing. Unforgettable evening with our friends and the crew will stay with us forever...

Our half day snorkel trip was amazing. Everyone in our group of 12 had such a great experience. They had a great crew on deck to make us feel safe and appreciated. I really enjoyed watching Captain Kim’s passion for the sea and her love for the Blaze II. It is a beautiful thing to have such a deep love for what you do. She spotted whales for us and took us to a private spot by Lanai to snorkel. Her crew was personable and hard working.
