About

This leisurely afternoon ride comes complete with storytelling, waterfalls, sheer sea cliffs, turn of the century infrastructure, former sugar plantations, and more! Relax into a Hilo sunset from the sea and listen to the rich history of what was once Hawai’i’s busiest sugar exporting hub. Learn about the 100+ year old colonial history of downtown Hilo, with many of it’s original buildings in tact, and the treacherous tsunamis that have ravaged the town. Missionaries, businessmen, plantation workers from all over the globe, and Hawai’i’s role in the beginning of globalization of the food industry – the Hāmākua Historical Hawai’i Afternoon Cruise will leave you enriched with that old Hawai’i feel!
