Hawaii offers standard to luxurious dinner cruise packages, along with vessel options. Depending on your preferences and needs, small sailboats and larger ships are available, which are designed especially for Hawaiian waters. If you go for smaller boats that can accommodate up to 24 people, you can enjoy a treat of a standard tropical drink and snack while sailing. Many people choose this for its tranquility. Some boats serve buffet-style meals with beverages such as mai tais, beer, and wine. The best thing about these small vessels is the open-air it provides. After your meal, you can hang out at the deck and feel the serenity of the moment. Allow yourself to be entirely emerged into the surroundings, feeling the motion of the waves and smelling the scent of the ocean. Relax and drown your worries as you embark on those beautiful ocean views. In winter, we suggest you bring a light sweater since it gets chilly at this time of the year. Or perhaps share a thin blanket with your significant other while stargazing. 

On the other hand, larger ships offer buffet dinner, drinks, and entertainment. Not all operators and cruises are the same. But all provide top-quality services. These are usually for individuals who seek to party in the middle of the ocean while splurging in the luxury of extraordinary sights. During your meal, entertainers and musicians start playing music, most likely focused on Polynesian music and dances, which are either party-oriented or romantic. These days, some cruises encourage their guests to provide their own entertainment through karaoke competition. For now, dance your heart out and experience this one in a million treat while it lasts.

An intimate romantic dinner is not only for a couple, but for families alike. If you are looking forward to celebrating your vacation on the island (with your kids) with a sunset dinner aboard before flying back home, we have something for you, too. Whether on a catamaran or a luxurious vessel, you can satisfy your cravings for island-style foods and drinks, full meals, snacks and desserts. For you, mom and dad: they also serve complimentary alcoholic beverages. While you dine, you get to enjoy magnificent ocean views sharing stories of your experiences and how you wish to come back again in the future for another round of adventures.

The best thing about Hawaii is the multitude of beautiful things it offers, including the famous Friday night fireworks dinner cruise. When you book your tickets, you can enjoy an enchanting night while savoring the evening scene, sailing in the island’s calm water with a sound system in the background. According to a Japanese proverb, “happiness rarely keeps company with an empty stomach,” so before the highlight of the night, some highly trained and friendly staff will serve dinner. Depending on your package, usually, you get to feast on island-style chicken, beef, and vegetables with a complimentary beverage (alcoholic and non-alcoholic). Vessels are different, but all feature luxury of amenities, including restrooms and full bar selections.

After dining, you can hang out for a while, and if chances cooperate, you may see turtles and dolphins (which is frequent) getting a glimpse of the sunset, too. And if it is indeed your lucky night, humpback whales come out as well, flexing their tails up and down.

And the fireworks begin! Watch the sky explode with a blend of reds, blues, greens, and purples while sipping your drink. See it light up and take over the show on a spectacular Friday night!
