Compared to other sunset sail experience this one is very affordable because of its relatively short duration (60 to 90 minutes) and because drinks are not included in the price. Drink are available on board for a pay-per-drink price (see the FAQ below), which makes this tour a more family-friendly option compared to other Waikiki Beach catamaran sailing tours with open bar.

# About Kepoikai
In the Hawaiian language, Kepoikai means “crest of the wave.” Kepoikai II has been sailing the waters of Waikiki for 30 years, when it was designed and built by the late catamaran sailor and boat builder, Captain Don Lipton.
