Itinerary and highlights

Cruise along Oahu's west side shoreline as the sun dips toward the Pacific, offering sweeping views of gentle beaches, rugged cliffs and distant island silhouettes - all aglow in sunset hues.

Turn toward shore to appreciate the dramatic ridges of the Wai'anae mountain range, framed against the colorful sky - a stunning contrast to the open ocean sunset.

A series of four protected, crescent shaped lagoons with turquoise waters framed by palms and resort coastline - a beautiful departure backdrop.

The westernmost tip of Oahu, known for its remote beauty and seabird sanctuary - on clear days, it's visible in the distance as the sun sinks into the Pacific.

Also called Kalaeloa, this coastal point features a historic lighthouse and expansive ocean views along Oahu's southwestern shore.
