Nobody does Na Pali Coast better!
Rafts are without question the most popular style of boat on Na Pali Coast and with good reason. They’re fast, agile, and are the pinnacle of adventure on Kaua’i! Our raft captains and crew are the bad boys (and girls) of our company, and go by our alter ego name Na Pali Pirates. They’re highly skilled, very professional, and take Na Pali Coast “rafting” to the next level, all while maintaining the Na Pali Experience tour quality and core values that we’re known for.
Choose a tour time below that appeals most to you and use the booking calendar to reserve your tour today! Typically, mornings have smoother water and a higher chance of dolphin encounters and afternoons are wet and wild, have a higher chance of seeing turtles, and offer ideal Na Pali Coast lighting conditions!
IMPORTANT: All riders must be in above average physical condition and ready for a thrilling adventure. We accept riders as young as 6 and have no upper age limit, however, the majority of our raft riders seem to be the dare-devil types and typically fall between the ages of 8-45.
Note: If you’re looking to see the same sights, but on a vessel that is more tame and gentle, please select one of our other boats.
