Hawaiian Cultural Cruise
Experience a real touch of Hawaii! This is a perfect cruise for the whole family! As you cruise out to the open ocean, you will have the opportunity to explore the art of making beautiful flower leis. Or take part in palm front weaving, learn to strum an ukulele (Hawaiian guitar) or dance the hula!
While aboard the Star of Honolulu, you will have the unique opportunity to discover the tropical beauty of Hawaii. Enjoy 360 degree coastline views of the Honolulu and Waikiki beaches and skylines from the upper deck. You will also learn about Hawaii's rich history through an exclusive video presentation and the Enchanting Waikiki hula show. You may be surprised by various marine animals, too. Look for spinner dolphins, tropical fish and turtles. Just keep in mind that this is a seasonal cruise, which takes place from May 1 to December 14 only.
You can choose between two packages - standard and deluxe. The standard package includes all of the above-mentioned cultural activities. With the deluxe package, you get all this plus a delicious buffet lunch featuring roast beef, island-style chicken, mahi mahi (fresh island fish), salmon, loco moco, salads, fresh tropical fruits and haupia (coconut pudding). Vegetarian meal options, such as veggie burgers, are also available, but must be requested in advance. To request a vegetarian meal option, please indicate your preference at time of booking. |

It's owned and operated by Paradise Cruise Limited, an industry mainstay that's been serving Hawaii's cruise and sightseeing industry since 1957. The Star features a 60-foot-high observation deck for spectacular 360 degree views, high-tech stabilizers for a smooth ride, interior elevators, ramps for boarding and exiting and specially constructed restrooms for full accessibility. It's the only dinner cruise ship in Hawaii that's A.D.A. (Americans with Disability Act) compliant.

Directions |
|
Depart Waikiki on Ala Moana Blvd heading west. Continue on Ala Moana Blvd toward downtown Honolulu. As you approach the downtown area (about 5 minutes from Waikiki) stay in the left hand lane. Look for the Aloha Tower and Pier sign on your left. Turn into the Aloha Tower Marketplace. Paid parking is available at the Aloha Tower Marketplace.
TIP: Paradise Cruise lines does not offer validation for parking, however any shop at the Aloha Tower Marketplace can validate your parking stub if you purchase anything over $2.00 (eg coffee). With validation, parking is only $2.00. Otherwise, parking is $2.00 for the first hour and $3.00 for each half hour after that. Thus without validation from one of the shops at Aloha Tower Marketplace, the cost for parking during the 2-3 hour cruise will be between $8.00 and $14.00. |
