“Z” stands for “Zodiac” and Tourz are what we do best. Kauai Z Tourz operates a zodiac 25 ft. hard hull inflatable vessel “Hokupaʻa”. Our zodiac is a US Coast Guard approved vessel for sixteen passengers that take visitors to areas of marine interest along Kauai’s coastal shores. This in fact is one of the only raft companies on Kauai that specifically targets the gentler waters off of Kauai’s southern coasts and known for popular snorkeling destinations. Our Captain and crew share their passion and knowledge of marine life and island history.

Z Tourz is the best snorkeling Kauai has to offer. Snorkel the south shore and see our Hawaiian Honu, TURTLES, TURTLES, TURTLES…. lots to see with less boating and more snorkeling. Then Go beyond the beach and off to our beautiful Na Pali Coast. Majestic mountains sweep down to the white sandy beaches. See fresh waterfalls and whisk into sea caves. Lots of fun and Aloha for everyone.

Hokupaʻa (name of vessel): This star “Hokupa’a”, unlike other stars, does not change it’s position no matter the longitude. Hokupaʻa means “Fixed Star”. The Hokupaʻa star is used to navigate the path for a “Hokuleʻa’” voyage from Hawaii to Tahiti.
