Best Oahu Dinner Cruises

So much of Hawaii’s world-class natural beauty is found below the sea or on the ocean. A dinner cruise combines the stunning beauty of an Oʻahu sunset with great food and amazing views of Honolulu’s Waikiki skyline twinkling in the evening light.

Dinner cruise vessels range from large boats with stages for various performers to smaller boats and catamarans catering to private parties and smaller, more intimate groups. With wonderful food, drinks, and views, a dinner cruise is an excellent way to glimpse the sparkle of Honolulu from a distance. Whether you’re looking for an affordable family cruise or a romantic luxury evening, we can help you find the perfect sunset dinner cruise to fit your budget!

Best Oahu Dinner Shows

From magic to music, dinner shows are a great way to cap off a day of sightseeing or poolside lounging. Less involved than a ceremonial luau, a dinner show is the perfect evening for those who have already attended a luau but still crave a night of entertainment. With ʻono (delicious) eats and top-notch performers, it will be a night to remember. Be ready to be more than a spectator, as many shows have plenty of audience participation! Let us find the dinner show that works for you. Weʻll tell you all we know about each show and what you can expect with each one. The only challenge will be choosing just one (okay…maybe two!)

How do I book a dinner cruise in Hawaii?
You can book a dinner cruise in Hawaii through a variety of channels, such as the cruise operator’s website, a travel agency, or a third-party booking platform like TripAdvisor or Expedia. It’s recommended to book in advance to ensure availability, especially during peak tourist seasons.
What can I expect from a dinner cruise in Hawaii?
A typical Hawaiian dinner cruise includes a welcome reception, a buffet or plated dinner featuring local and international cuisine, live entertainment such as Hawaiian music and hula dancing, and opportunities to take in the breathtaking views of the islands, sunset, and marine life.
How long does a dinner cruise last?
Most dinner cruises in Hawaii last between 2 to 4 hours, depending on the itinerary and the operator. Some cruises may also offer extended or customizable experiences.
What should I wear on a dinner cruise?
Dress code varies depending on the specific cruise, but generally, it’s recommended to wear resort casual attire. This can include slacks or dress shorts, collared shirts, sundresses, or skirts. Comfortable, flat-soled shoes are advisable for walking on the deck. It’s also a good idea to bring a light jacket or sweater for the cooler evening breeze.
Are dinner cruises suitable for children?
Yes, most dinner cruises in Hawaii are family-friendly and offer a fun experience for guests of all ages. Some operators may offer discounted rates for children, and some cruises may have specific child-friendly menus and entertainment.
Are dinner cruises wheelchair accessible?
Many dinner cruise operators in Hawaii provide wheelchair-accessible facilities, but it’s important to confirm accessibility with the operator when booking. Some vessels may have limitations in terms of mobility or accessible restrooms, so it’s best to inquire in advance.
Can I expect to see marine life during the cruise?
While there is a chance to spot marine life such as dolphins, whales (during the season), and sea turtles during a dinner cruise, sightings are not guaranteed. However, the breathtaking views of the Hawaiian coastlines and the sunset can be enjoyed on every cruise.
What if there is inclement weather on the day of the cruise?
Cruise operators usually monitor weather conditions and make decisions about cancellations based on safety concerns. If a cruise is canceled due to inclement weather, the operator will typically offer a rescheduling or a refund. It’s important to check the specific operator’s policy on cancellations and refunds when booking.
Can I book a private dinner cruise?
Yes, many operators in Hawaii offer private dinner cruises for special occasions such as weddings, corporate events, or family gatherings. Pricing and availability will vary, so it’s best to contact the operator directly to discuss the options for a private experience.
