Hawaii Seascapes with UnCruise Adventures, Just Won Best Hawaii Cruise by USA TODAY

The Hawaiian Seascapes route links Molokai, Lanai, Maui, and Hawaii Island with flexible daily adventures. Guests may paddleboard and kayak rarely touristed seas, snorkel coral gardens, and join guided hikes. Signature moments include an evening feast and music with Molokai hosts, hikes that explore the geology of the islands including a private waterfall and a volcanic ridge, and night snorkel with giant Pacific manta rays.

Unlike conventional large ships that are limited to deep-water piers and fixed timetables, Safari Explorer anchors in quiet coves and uses kayaks, paddleboards, and skiffs as the day’s transport. With only 36 guests, there are no lines and no casinos. Time is invested in snorkeling, beach landings, and cultural exchanges. The captain can adjust the route to follow wildlife and weather. The result is an expedition that favors firsthand exploration over spectatorship, which is why travelers voted it No. 1.
