Sea Turtles
Pacific Green Sea Turtles, or Na Honu Kai, live well over 100 years, weigh 300–400 pounds at adulthood, with shells up to 4 feet long.

While resting, Sea Turtles can hold their breath for up to 5 hours.

The Sea Turtles born in Hawaiian waters leave their birth waters to roam the ocean for the first 25 years of their lives then return, having grown to the approximate size of a dinner plate, and remain in their home waters for the remainder for their lives.

See you on the Na Pali coast!

Koko
You might say, as we oftentimes do, “It’s in the koko—”blood. Our ‘ohana grew up dancing hula, toddling along on grandfather’s fishing boat and surfing our Kauai’s ocean. They also grew up hearing the stories handed down from kupuna (elders). When taking a custom charter on any of our four boats, that research and experience is priceless. We share it with you, because we want our Hawaiian culture to live on. If you need to travel outside the Na Pali area, just let us know, and we can accommodate your request for filming, memorial services/ash scattering, photo shoots, or other events.
