The bucket-list things to do — and who runs each one.
Here’s the bucket list for your day ashore: the most extraordinary thing to do at each stop, who runs it, and how to book it direct — so you can weigh it against your ship’s excursion and pick what suits you.
Glide along the world's most dramatic coastline as the sun melts into the Pacific. Capt Andy's flagship sunset dinner sail is the definitive Kauai bucket-list moment — golden cliffs, sea caves, and a gourmet meal on the water.
Set sail at dawn on a custom-built sailing catamaran to snorkel the jewel-clear reefs beneath the Nā Pali cliffs. This is Kauai's most spectacular marine environment, accessible only by sea.
Blast into the Nā Pali sea caves aboard a rigid-hull inflatable raft — the only craft nimble enough to thread inside the coast's deepest caverns. This is Kauai's most thrilling and intimate coastline experience, complete with a dolphin-sighting guarantee.
Journey into Kauai's astonishing interior to stand at the rim of Waimea Canyon — 10 miles long, 3,600 ft deep, and ablaze in crimson and emerald. Few experiences on earth match this island grand canyon.
Drift up Kauai's only navigable river to the ethereal Fern Grotto, a lava-rock amphitheatre draped in hanging ferns where water cascades from every surface. This sacred site has enchanted visitors for over a century.
Soar over all of Kauai's unreachable wonders in a single flight — hidden waterfalls, the secret Manawaiopuna 'Jurassic' Falls, and the full Nā Pali Coast from above. Seventy percent of Kauai is accessible only by air; this is how its greatest secrets are revealed.
You know what to do on the day. Here is the trip it belongs to — each one opens as a whole plan, not a list: where to fly in, every port, what it runs.
