Waikiki Whale Watching Tour + Polynesian Cultural Center

Immerse yourself in the spirit of Hawaii with the Waikiki Whale Watching Tour + Polynesian Cultural Center package—a full-day blend of natural wonder and rich Polynesian heritage.

Start your morning aboard a Waikiki Whale Watching Tour, a breathtaking two-hour sail along Oahu’s southern coast. From December through March, humpback whales migrate to Hawaii’s warm waters, offering spectacular displays of power and grace. Watch these gentle giants breach, spout, and dive while knowledgeable naturalists share insights about their journey and behaviors. Along the way, enjoy sweeping views of Diamond Head and the Honolulu skyline, and keep your eyes peeled for dolphins and sea turtles.

After your ocean adventure, travel to Oahu’s North Shore to visit the Polynesian Cultural Center, Hawaii’s #1-rated cultural attraction. Spread across 42 acres, the center features six immersive island villages—Hawaii, Samoa, Tonga, Tahiti, Fiji, and Aotearoa (New Zealand)—each showcasing traditional arts, dances, and daily life. Watch fire-knife dancing in Samoa, learn hula in Hawaii, and paddle a canoe along the scenic lagoon.

Stay for the evening Ali‘i Luau Buffet, where you’ll enjoy island cuisine, live music, and a dazzling Polynesian revue. Cap your day with the Ha: Breath of Life show, a cinematic spectacle featuring over 100 performers, fire dancers, and authentic storytelling that celebrates love, family, and the power of Polynesia.

This package combines the best of Oahu’s sea life and island culture, creating a once-in-a-lifetime experience that connects you to Hawaii’s land, people, and ocean.
