and the events that launched the
United States into World War II.
Waikiki Beach
The Waikiki area was once a haven for
Hawaiian royalty and has been welcoming
tourists since the turn of the twentieth
century. The father of modern surfing,
Duke Kahanamoku, grew up conquering
the waves of Waikiki Beach. The beach
is arguably Hawaii’s most famous.
With Diamond Head looming in the
distance, its white sands, gentle surf
and swaying palms are iconic symbols
of the Hawaiian Islands.
Drums of the Pacific
The sound of the conch, the beating
of the drums, and the echoes of the
Hawaiian chant signal the start of Maui’s
most exciting luau. Discover the islands
of Polynesia through song and dance,
complete with a traditional imu ceremony
and taste the exotic flavors of native
Hawaiian cuisine. Our luau features
authentic dances and music of the
old Hawaii, Samoa, Fiji, New Zealand,
Tahiti, Tonga, and Rarotonga.
