Rise & Cruise
Jet lag got you up early? Turn it into a win with a private sunrise cruise.
We’ll leave the dock while it’s still dark, just as the island starts to wake up. The air is cool, the water is calm, and the city lights shimmer behind you as we glide into the open ocean. It’s a peaceful, quiet time—before the beach crowds, traffic, and tour boats take over.
As the sun begins to rise over Diamond Head and Waikīkī, you’ll have front-row seats to one of the most stunning views Hawaii has to offer. The sky lights up in soft pastels and gold, and the reflection on the water is pure magic. It truly feels like you have the ocean to yourself.
This isn’t a pre-planned tour—it’s your morning, your boat, your call. Want to hop in for a swim? Let’s do it. Want to sit back with a hot coffee and a fresh donut (on us) while you take in the moment? Totally your vibe. We’ve even got space for your own breakfast or drinks if you want to BYO.
You might spot sea turtles, dolphins, or even whales in season—and if we do, we’ll head that way to check them out.
Whether you’re looking to start the day with adventure or simply soak in the calm, we’ll make it happen. No crowds, no schedule—just you, your crew, and the best part of the day.
