Front Row to the Show
Duration: 2 or 3 hours
About
Skip the packed shoreline and watch Waikiki’s fireworks from the best viewpoint possible—right on the water. This private boat tour cruises along Waikiki at night, giving you sparkling skyline views before pulling up offshore near the Hilton Hawaiian Village, where the fireworks are launched.
Because the show is fired from a barge offshore, boats nearby get a clear, unobstructed perspective that feels close, immersive, and far more relaxed than watching from land. The fireworks portion lasts about five minutes, and the cruise includes scenic city-light views on the way to and from the launch area.
This is your private ride, so you can set the vibe. Play your own music, bring your favorite snacks and drinks, and turn a simple fireworks night into a standout memory.
