I had the pleasure of going to Niihau on the super raft. This boat flies and rides super smooth. The water around the island is tranquil and snorkled with resident monk seals. Good food and great fun. A must while visiting Kauai!

The captain and crew were attentive and friendly, providing great information on the islands and local spots to visit. They were very cautious of everyone’s safety and comfort. We saw spinner dolphins, a young monk seal, humunukuapua’a, parrot fish, Angel fish, a ton of other fish, sea urchins, star fish and even a sea cucumber! Simply an amazing time and highly recommend Captain J’s charters.We saw monk seals and LOTS of fish. The waters in this spot were so clear. The crew was amazing. Definitely worth taking this tour.

My friends and I had such an amazing trip to Ni'ihau with captain J. The boat ride there was super smooth and the weather was perfect. We saw Dolphins, humpback whales, melon head whales, massive manta rays, a huge ton of fish, and big underwater arch ways and 300ft shelf drop offs. I was so bummed I didn't have a gopro for all the underwater shots but his crew had a gopro and captured all the amazing photos and videos and we were able to airdrop all the cool footage and now I have all the memories to keep forever! Absolutely a great time, would definitely recommend going to Ni'ihau with Captain J and his crewThis was truly an epic adventure!! A Ni'ihau snorkel/dive was on my bucket list and I finally got over there with Captain J's!! Captain J and the crew is very safety-conscious yet super chill and fun.

This was truly an epic adventure!! A Ni'ihau snorkel/dive was on my bucket list and I finally got over there with Captain J's!! Captain J and the crew is very safety-conscious yet super chill and fun. The channel crossing is no joke if there's a swell, but the ride was very comfortable all things considered. The trip to and from Ni'ihau featured some fun tunes which set the tone for a festive trip. When we arrived at Ni'inau, we saw monk seals, oodles of manta rays, and we had great bird watching. We saw a whale at a distance on the way over (we visited at the very start of whale season - I imagine during Dec-Feb there are tons of whale sightings. The snorkeling was at a more advanced level than some other trips we've been on and was pretty amazing. In spite of some decent wave action, the visibility was impressive.Captain Baron and crew were awesome. We learned so much history on our way to snorkel and he was careful to find smooth waters. We saw a pod of dolphins but he was respectful of their space and made sure we didn’t stay in their space too long. Lunch was plenty of food and included beer and wine...
