Lanai Discovery Cruise

A full day catamaran cruise and beach tour with award-winning sailing company, Trilogy, who have operating in the Hawaiian islands for more than 35 years.

 

Starting from Lahaina Harbour at around 10.00am (or 6.30am if opting for the sunrise tour), after check-in and a full safety briefing, you set sail for Lanai on your sail-rigged catamaran.  Breakfast of Mom's homemade cinnamon rolls, juice, coffee and fresh fruit, is served on board during the one and a half hours' cruise across the short channel.  During your cruise, keep watching for spinner dolphins, that like racing the catamarans, and in season, you may be lucky enough to spot whales as well.

 

On the 10.00am sailing, light snacks are also served.  On arrival, you are greeted with lei by Lanai locals, and you have exclusive access to Hulopo'e Bay Marine Sanctuary, and Manele Bay, where you can swim, snorkel, snuba (easy diving for beginners), play a game of beach volleybal with the other guests or just sunbath on the warm sand, voted the best beach in the USA!  You can also take an optional guided tour of Lanai's historic plantation town with island-born Hawaiian Cultural Guides, or just stay and relax on the shore.

 

Back at the beach, and Trilogy's private Hale O Manele Pavillion, where a delicious barbecue lunch (6.30am tour) or dinner (10.00am tour) is served, with Kiawe BBQ chicken, asian stir-fried noodles, seasonal vegetables, fresh salads, assorted rolls, and followed by fresh local pineapple.  A wide variety of complimentary non-alcoholic drinks are available throughout the day, and some alcoholic drinks are available for purchase.

 

After your day on Lanai, you enjoy a leisurely cruise back home, maybe with an amazing sunset along the way.

 

Safety is the utmost importance with Trilogy and every crew member is highly trained, including certification in CPR, First Responder first aid, De-Fib instruction and Ocean Safety skills. Each vessel is certified by US Coast Guard and carries emergency oxygen and full medical kits which includes bee sting, jelly fish sting and coral cut medication.
