Waikiki Captain's Sunset Sail with Pupu Tasting (Max 6 Guests)

Overview

The MANA Cruises Waikiki sunset sail with tasting is a 2-hour catamaran sail from Ala Wai Boat Harbor past Diamond Head for at most 6 guests, with a pupu tasting menu plated on board and hosted bar options, at $267 per person. It suits couples wanting a small-boat sunset. The biggest drawback: shared sailings run only Tuesdays and Thursdays.
