About Blue Dolphin Charters - Deluxe Na Pali Coast Snorkel
Spend the morning on the water as a 63-foot catamaran carries you along Kauai’s west and north shores toward the Na Pali Coast. The cliffs rise higher as you go, with green valleys, narrow waterfalls and hidden stretches of coastline appearing around each bend. Along the way, the crew shares stories about Kauai’s history, culture and marine life while breakfast and fresh coffee are served on board.
When conditions allow, the boat anchors in a protected cove for snorkeling. You can slip into the water with the provided gear and look for reef fish, coral and Hawaiian green sea turtles below the surface. Dolphins may also appear during the cruise, although wildlife sightings are never guaranteed.
After snorkeling, relax back on deck with lunch and a cold drink while the catamaran begins the return trip. The ride home gives you another chance to take in the cliffs and open ocean without feeling rushed through the scenery.
