Hawaii Cruises

Hawaii has been long established as a premier cruise destination. The Hawaiian chain consists of hundreds of islands, each one unique and beautiful. Cruises can transport you to Oahu, Kauai, Molokai, Maui, Lanai and the Big Island (Hawaii), and along the way you’ll experience the thrills of volcanoes and incredible surf, take in captivating tropical flora and spend never ending nights on moonlit beaches.

There is a wide range of cruises from Sydney to Hawaii, other departure ports include Brisbane & Melbourne. Most cruises through the Hawaiian Islands will start and end at Oahu, famous for Waikiki beach and Diamond Head. Cruises from the “Big Island (Hawaii)” will include visits to volcanoes, coffee plantations and stunning black sand beaches. On Kauai, cruises can transport you to amazing mountain scenes of endless green forests. Travelers interested in sport and sun can find both on the island of Maui. History can be a part of your Hawaii cruise as well, from ancient palaces to recent memorials to Pearl Harbor. Hawaii invariably conjures images of Luaus and Hula dancing on a torch-lit beach, and these should not be missed either.
