Hawaiian Islands Yacht Cruise
Hawaii Has Never Been Closer!
Discover Hawaii's Old Traditions in a Unique New Way
As Hawaii celebrates its 50th anniversary of statehood - and American Safari Cruises celebrates our own 10th anniversary - join us for a unique yacht adventure in America's very own tropical isles.
Hawaii's underwater seascape is as spectacular as the lofty and often active volcanoes high overhead. On this exploration you'll see five islands, plus one tiny islet, as you enjoy adventures both in the water and on land. And no worries about inter-island flights, packing, transfers! Each day's itinerary is flexible; whales, wildlife and whimsy all have a part to play. We are most definitely NOT just beelining from port to port or place to place.
Yacht Cruising in the Islands
Your base for all these adventures, at sea and ashore, is the 145-foot, 36-guest Safari Explorer. She is equipped with all of the equipment - and expertise - for kayaking, snorkeling and more. Explore the remote coves, bays and shoreline by kayak, sailboat, mountain bike and motor launch. Our expert Expedition Leaders/Naturalists, tapping into our long history of employing Hawaii-based Captains and Expedition Leaders/Naturalists will lead guided hikes on our Alaska and other voyages.
The Safari Explorer boasts a spa and fitness area with sauna and a private massage space - with complimentary massage treatments! A hot tub on the top deck and yoga classes complete the luxurious relaxation and spa environment. Most staterooms have windowed doors, with commodore suites featuring separate sitting areas and sliding glass doors opening on to your own private balcony (an ASC exclusive feature). And of course the cuisine, service, and experienced all-American crew are fully up to the pampering standards our guests have come to expect.
The Safari Explorer provides a Hawaiian Island cruising experience which yachters term 'gunkholing', popularized in the Pacific Northwest island chains, that focuses on dipping into hideaway coves and inlets, mostly staying in the lee of the eastern-most Hawaiian Islands chain (sheltered from the northerly wind and waves.) We have in fact not added the popular island of Kauai to our itinerary because of the extended passage of the Kauai Channel required. But you may extend your trip with pre- or post-cruise stays on Kauai, the Big Island or Maui.
