Great time on the high sea
It was fun and the crew is great, the boat is beautiful. The captain dropped the sails and we took off like a rocket.

Wonderful experience!...
Wonderful experience! Captain Noah, Isaiah and Carsten were a great crew! Keep them on the ship all the time!

A beautiful day on the water.
The free drinks were a hit. My daughter enjoyed her soda. The crew were very professional yet friendly and helpful. I would like to have less music and more just the quiet sounds of the sails and ocean. Not everyone likes loud music!

Disappointed!
Maybe we didn’t research good enough. All the forgot to mention is the Pier F runs parallel across from the Ala Mohana road. We were told the name of the Marina the letter of the Pier and the pier number and we weren’t able to get there on time. The marina is big and if you take the road around it you will never get there. We walked the park, we walked and walked and by the time we found it they were gone. The trip was at 3:30 they suggested to be there by 3:00 pm. Didn’t find them until 3:45. Our hotel was with in walking distance. So unfortunate! Call them and wrote them but not answer. Well make sure you know where it is or you will be left behind! Take a taxi do not walk!!! We loss the money and our afternoon! Be aware! Aloha.

Amazing time!
We originally were signed up for Friday, but because of the lightning, they offered either and refund or reschedule. We rescheduled for the next day. Lovely crew, always made sure we were good on drinks. Very good time. The crew were so friendly and showed a lot of aloha! Mahalo to the crew for a great time!! Definitely recommend.

Why this scores 67
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
South Shore Open Sail from Kewalo Harbor Including Drinks: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Oahu.
How much does South Shore Open Sail from Kewalo Harbor Including Drinks cost?
+
Prices start at $38 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Oahu usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does South Shore Open Sail from Kewalo Harbor Including Drinks take?
+
Plan for about 1.5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Oahu is not rushed.
Is South Shore Open Sail from Kewalo Harbor Including Drinks worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 67 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.7/5 across 27 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Oahu, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule South Shore Open Sail from Kewalo Harbor Including Drinks?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is South Shore Open Sail from Kewalo Harbor Including Drinks suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 1.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book South Shore Open Sail from Kewalo Harbor Including Drinks?
+
Around 9 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Oahu can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Oahu and add a light layer if any part of the 1.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does South Shore Open Sail from Kewalo Harbor Including Drinks start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Oahu within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Oahu?
+
On Outty we rank every Oahu experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Oahu: Full or Half Day Grand Circle Island Tour, Oahu Small-Group Circle Island Tour with Turtle Snorkeling, Pearl Harbor Remembered Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Oahu?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Oahu?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
