Private Charters & Tours

Deluxe Dolphin Lana’i Snorkel Adventures are available year round. Whale Watches are available December 15th to April 15th.
A word about chartering the boat or boats for your own private use: If there is something that you REALLY want to see or do on the water, a private charter must be considered! Think about it for a minute. There are no other vessels on the water that can offer the geographical range that Captain Steve’s provides, and snorkeling is just the beginning of what is available. We have an extraordinary volume of resources to tap in order to realize your wishes and dreams. Our captains and crew have a tremendous imagination, as well as the credentials to back up the ideas they dream up for our guests. Conventions, corporate meetings, family reunions, weddings, honeymoons, ash scatterings, and nature photography are just some of the many types of private charters we offer.
