This one stacks three things: a coastal sail at golden hour, dinner served on deck, and live music and dance through the main course. The boat runs out of Honolulu Harbor and turns back toward the city lights for the return leg. Pick the upper deck for the view, the lower for the buffet line.
The Star of Honolulu leaves from Pier 8 at Aloha Tower Marketplace, a short trip from Waikiki, and heads out along the coast for a two-hour sunset run. Check-in opens at 4:45 PM and the boat departs at 5:30 PM. The vessel is stabilized and certified to travel beyond Diamond Head toward the Kahala Gold Coast, though the captain can change the route if sea conditions call for it.
Once aboard, each party gets its own table for a Pacific Rim dinner buffet, a signature mai tai, and coffee and tea. The centerpiece of the night is a Polynesian show called "Moku Ola, Voyage of Life," performed by what the operator describes as the largest cast on island waters, followed by a dance party that guests are welcome to join. One reviewer called the storytelling dances the favorite part of the night, and another said everyone who wanted to was included in the dance party afterward.
This suits travelers who want a full evening out with dinner, drinks, and live entertainment in one package. Book at least a day ahead, since the listing requires 24 hours advance booking.
A few practical details shape the evening, from what to wear to how the drinks work.
Common issues. The listing requires booking at least 24 hours in advance, and special requests need 72 hours advance notice, with wheelchair accessibility requiring 48 hours. The cruise depends on good weather and a minimum number of travelers, and if either forces a cancellation, guests are offered a different date or a full refund. On board, drinks beyond the included mai tai, coffee, and tea cost extra, and one reviewer reported that American Express and cash are not accepted on board. Food opinions vary: many reviewers praised the buffet, while one called it just okay and said they would do the cruise again if they returned.
The two-hour sunset cruise, a Pacific Rim dinner buffet, one signature mai tai, coffee and tea, the Polynesian show "Moku Ola, Voyage of Life," and the dance party are all included. Hawaii state tax and harbor fees are covered as well. Additional beverages must be purchased separately.
No, hotel pickup and drop off are not included. The cruise departs from Pier 8 at Aloha Tower Marketplace, 1 Aloha Tower Dr, Honolulu, which is near public transportation. Check in from 4:45 PM, with departure at 5:30 PM.
The experience runs two hours. If the Friday option is selected, the listing states a three-hour sunset cruise is provided instead. One reviewer who sailed on a Friday mentioned fireworks before docking.
Yes, the listing states the cruise and its transportation are wheelchair accessible, with availability upon request. The operator asks for 48 hours advance notice for accessibility arrangements, and special requests generally need 72 hours notice.
A full refund is available if you cancel at least 24 hours before the start time, based on local time. Cancellations or changes inside that window are not refunded or accepted. If the operator cancels due to poor weather or insufficient traveler numbers, you are offered a different date or a full refund.
Attire is casual, and the listing recommends avoiding short pants and bringing a light jacket on cooler nights. Bring a payment card for extra drinks, since one reviewer reported cash and American Express are not accepted on board. Gratuities are not included.

Oahu · You drive your own underwater scooter along a reef, breathing normally inside a helmet while fish drift past the glass. No dive certification needed, just a short briefing before you drop below the surface.
The scooter keeps your head dry inside a viewing helmet, so you can breathe and look around while cruising over the reef. After a quick safety run-through you follow a guide underwater, no scuba training required, which makes this an easy first taste of diving.
from $188The starting price varies little between departure times. Check availability →
Oahu · A short Friday evening boat ride to watch the weekly Waikīkī fireworks from offshore, away from the beach crowd.
Every Friday night Waikīkī fires a short fireworks display from the beach, and this trip watches it from the water. The boat goes out before dark, floats near the display, and returns to the dock shortly after. It is brief by design, which makes it an easy add-on after an early dinner.
from $85The starting price for this fireworks sail can shift with seat choice and the night you sail. Check availability →
