Dock wisdom

Na Pali boat tours book weeks ahead in summer; the north shore access from Port Allen (south) is the most reliable year-round.

Morning trips have the calmest seas and best visibility for snorkeling along the south shore reefs.

Monk seals rest near the Po'ipu boat launch — give them the federal 150-foot buffer and photograph from afar.

Port Allen is 20 minutes west and is the hub for larger boat tours; Kukui'ula Harbor is 5 minutes west for smaller rafts.
