πŸŒ… Hawaii Nautical - Mauna Kea Sunset Coastline Cruise

Unwind in true island style on this Mauna Kea Sunset Cruise, departing from Kawaihae Harbor aboard Olohana - a 41-foot luxury powerboat built for comfort and smooth cruising.

Glide along the Kohala Coast as the sky begins to glow, with expansive views of Mauna Kea, Mauna Loa, and Hualalai, and on especially clear days, Haleakala rising from the horizon on Maui.

Keep an eye out for playful dolphins, and in winter, migrating humpback whales that often visit these waters. Whether you're marking a special occasion or simply savoring a serene evening at sea, this sunset cruise is a peaceful, picture-perfect way to end your day in Hawaii.
