Vida Mia Coffee Cruise

We've partnered with Oceanside Bakery and Honolulu Coffee Company to offer fresh Kona Coffee and freshly baked pastries on board the historic Vida Mia. Departing right from Waikiki, the Vida Mia Coffee Cruise is one of the best ways to start the day. 

 

Our coastal cruise offers great views of Diamond Head as we tour the coast of Waikiki and Honolulu. Sea conditions are prime early in the morning. The winds are low and the ocean is calm, making it an ideal time to view marine life. We often see pods of dolphins, whales, and sea turtles. Guests are invited to tour the entire historic vessel and our knowledgeable crew is there to help pass on their knowledge and the history of the Vida Mia.

​

From Farm to Cup...to Yacht

Our coffee beans are grown by local coffee farmers in Kona and the beans are roasted right here in Honolulu.

Our pastries and breakfast items are baked fresh daily right in our neighborhood. Fruits are sourced from local farms on-island. We also offer decaf coffee, an assortment of teas. Dairy-free oat milk, creamers, and natural sweeteners are provided on every tour.

 

Our Breakfast Menu from Oceanside Bakery

Your ticket includes a delicious assortment of sweet and savory pastries from Oceanside Bakery. A custom menu of sweet and savory items, all of our pastries are sourced from this local artisanal french bakery located in Chinatown. Our generous breakfast is offered buffet style. 

​

Oceanside Bakery has created a custom menu of sweet and savory items. People rarely make caneles here in Hawaii, but the bakery has made them quite popular. They’re like little cakes, but with a unique caramelized crust and an almost custardy center. With added toppings like chocolate, caramel, haupia or guava, expect a taste of the islands. 

​

A signature item is the croissant cube with smoked salmon. 

Croissant cubes are not only trending in Europe, they are trending in Hawaii.

Gluten-free items are offered on every cruise.

Departs from Waikiki

We depart from Waikiki Monday - Saturday at 7:00 am and 10:00 and embark on a leisurely 90-minute tour along the coast of Honolulu. Guests are back in the harbor by 8:30 am, with ample time to make it to work, or to do other activities on the island. The coffee cruise is a favorite for many local residents and members of our boating community. It’s a fun thing to do for all age groups. Children and pets are welcome. 

 

Enjoy a fresh cup of coffee from the privacy of your own yacht. A great way to start the day.

 

Finding Us

We are conveniently located near all the major hotels. We share the harbor with the nearby Prince Waikiki, Ilikai Hotel, and the Hilton Hawaiian Village. If you are staying at the Royal Hawaiian, Outrigger Waikiki, or Sheraton Waikiki we are a short 10-15 minute walk along the beach. Many of our hotel guests take a morning stroll over to the harbor or rent a Biki bike at one of their kiosks. There is a nice bike path along the beach; you can catch it right at the end of Lewers Street or take the scenic route and cut through the path at the Hale Koa Hotel.
