Our family of 7 did the 4 hour private snorkeling and sailing trip near the start of our 10 day vacation on Hawaii. It was … More a great day for it and we were able to see pods of dolphins and flying fish during the trip. The catamaran was comfortable and immaculately clean. Captain Eric, Yumi, and first mate Julia were some of the most welcoming and helpful people we could have met during our trip. They gave us a ton of good recommendations on where to go on the islands. All the recommendations they gave us turned out to be top notch. We really started our trip out right by booking the sailing trip with them. -

Our family of 8 had an exceptional 4-hour sail on the Kolea, Paradise Sailing’s private catamaran charter. Besides the great … More time sailing we were able to snorkel, fish and see whales and dolphins along the beautiful Kona coast with the snowy peaks of Mauna Kea and Mauna Loa in the background! It was a spectacular cruise with Captains Eric and Yumi and ship’s mate Daniel. We would love to do again and highly recommend it. -

Did the private 4 hr private sailing trip. Really great experience. Loved the snorkeling and saw a huge turtle that the kids … More didn’t stop talking about for the rest of the trip. Everyone loved laying out on the netting. Captain Tony and first mate Julia were great. If you are prone to motion sickness make sure you take some dramamine (ideally the night before). Definitely recommend this trip
