What You Will Experience

Enjoy an unforgettable evening in Ko Olina that begins on the ocean and continues ashore.

What To Expect

Your experience starts at the Ko Olina Marina, where you’ll be welcomed with a complimentary drink and live Hawaiian music and hula on the dock. As the sun begins to set, step aboard Ko Nau Lani, Hawaiʻi Nautical’s luxury sailing catamaran, and cruise along Oʻahu’s beautiful leeward coastline.

During your sunset sail, take in panoramic ocean views and golden skies while enjoying our full open bar — including beer on tap, wine, and handcrafted cocktails — all included with no upcharge. With spacious decks and attentive crew, the atmosphere is relaxed, refined, and designed to ease you into the evening ahead.

Throughout the sail, guests will also hear light cultural narration and stories about the coastline, ocean traditions, and the significance of this area — offering meaningful context as you transition into the evening’s celebration.

After returning to the marina, you’ll move seamlessly to the Kaula Luau, where traditional music, hula, storytelling, and island-inspired cuisine continue the experience. The combination of ocean sunset and cultural celebration creates a smooth and memorable Ko Olina evening.

Whether you’re celebrating something special or simply looking for a thoughtfully curated night out, Kaula Kai offers a beautiful way to experience sunset and luau together in one seamless package.
