Private Charters Aboard Hoku Nui — Celebrate in Luxury and Aloha
Your Private Paradise on the Kona Coast
Imagine sailing into the golden light of the Kona Coast surrounded by friends, family, or colleagues — the ocean calm, the breeze warm, and every detail tailored just for you.
With over 40 years of experience, Sea Paradise Hawaii offers private charters aboard Hoku Nui, our 50-foot luxury sailing catamaran that blends the comfort of a premium yacht with the warmth of authentic Hawaiian hospitality.
Every private charter is fully customizable — whether you’re envisioning a snorkeling adventure in Kealakekua Bay, a sunset sail with champagne toasts, a corporate gathering on the water, or an unforgettable manta ray night experience beneath the stars. Our crew works closely with you to create the perfect balance of relaxation, exploration, and Hawaiian cultural storytelling.
Perfect for Every Occasion
Weddings & Vow Renewals
Exchange vows surrounded by the beauty of the Kona Coast, where glowing sunsets, warm ocean breezes, and sparkling Pacific waters create an unforgettable setting. Our crew helps coordinate the details, allowing you to relax and enjoy an intimate celebration that feels effortless, personal, and uniquely Hawaiian.
Corporate Events & Retreats
Bring your team or clients together aboard Hoku Nui for a private ocean experience that feels far removed from the typical conference room. From catered gatherings and sunset networking cruises to team-building snorkeling adventures, Sea Paradise can customize the charter with music, dining, and optional educational presentations focused on Hawaii’s marine environment and conservation efforts.
Family Reunions & Celebrations
Reconnect with family and friends while exploring the Kona coastline aboard our spacious 50-foot catamaran. Whether your group wants to snorkel in clear Hawaiian waters, watch for dolphins and seasonal whales, or simply enjoy a relaxing scenic sail together, our experienced local crew creates a welcoming atmosphere for guests of all ages.
Educational or Eco-Group Charters
Sea Paradise regularly hosts marine biology groups, eco-clubs, photographers, and educational organizations seeking hands-on experiences on the water. Guests can learn about coral reef ecosystems, manta ray behavior, sustainable tourism practices, and Hawaii’s unique marine life while exploring some of the Big Island’s most remarkable coastal environments.
Comfort, Service, and Sustainability
Your private charter aboard Hoku Nui includes a U.S. Coast Guard Licensed Captain, experienced in-water guides, premium snorkel gear, flotation equipment, and all standard tour inclusions. Depending on the experience you envision, additional options may include catered dining, beverages, celebratory setups, music, and onboard entertainment.
Every voyage reflects Sea Paradise Hawaii’s commitment to responsible and sustainable tourism. From reef-safe operations and environmentally mindful practices to respectful wildlife viewing guidelines, we believe luxury should also protect the natural beauty that makes the Kona Coast so special. Guests enjoy premium comfort, authentic Hawaiian storytelling, and a deeper connection to the ocean throughout the experience.
Swimming ability is required for guests participating in water activities, and recommended snorkeling experience levels may vary depending on ocean conditions and the type of charter selected. Non-swimmers are always welcome as Ride-Along Guests, allowing them to relax aboard the catamaran and enjoy the scenic coastline, wildlife sightings, sunsets, and open-ocean atmosphere from the comfort of the deck.
