2.Sunset Dinner Cruise in Honolulu, Hawaii

★★★★★★★★★★4.0 · 1,023 reviews · 2 hours (approx.)

Spend about two hours offshore from Honolulu watching the Waikiki sunset and Diamond Head Lighthouse. Prince Kuhio Tours serves a fresh dinner cooked in the onboard galley, with beef short ribs or mahi-mahi, dessert, soft drinks, and BYOB cocktails. Check operating status before booking.

“We had prepaid a Christmas evening dinner cruise. On Dec. 21 I received an email from Julie of Prince KuhioTours saying the cruise had been canceled due to mechanical problems with the boat. She said we would receive a refund of the $258.36 that we had paid on August 16, 2025. As of January 9, 2026 we still have not received a refund nor has anyone answered any of my emails or phone calls. I would think twice before booking anything through Viator. Nancy LaMorgese”

4.Honolulu Sunset Dinner Cruise with Friday Fireworks Show

★★★★★★★★★★4.0 · 285 reviews · 2 hours 30 minutes (approx.)

Cruise from Honolulu along Waikiki Beach toward Diamond Head while dining on salad, beef short ribs or mahi-mahi, and dessert. Friday’s Hilton Hawaiian Village fireworks are the finale. Bring your own alcohol, arrive early for better seating, and expect a boat ride that can be bumpy.

“We had a great time on this dinner cruise. The scenery was great and the food was very good. We had fresh Mahi Mahi and chef did a great job of cooking & preparing food. It was BYOB, so enjoyed my cocktails mixed by their bartender. It was a great ride out to Diamondhead prior to going to set up for the fireworks show (short 5 minute show). Captain was very entertaining and talked with him for quite a bit during drive out. Eating areas on top are great for pairs, but it's a little goofy for sitting with group (not tables, but table tops in front of benches). The…”

5.Honolulu Sunset Sail from Kewalo Harbor Including Drinks

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 169 reviews · 1 hour 30 minutes (approx.) · from $61Top rated

Board the Na Hoku II at Kewalo Basin Harbor for a 90-minute sunset sail toward Waikiki. Expect Diamond Head views, music, alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks, and a friendly crew led by names such as Jeff and Ricki. Shoes come off before boarding, and the boat returns to the harbor.

“What a Fun crew we had! They kept us laughing, played great music, the drinks were just as good. They came around and checked on us, helped take pictures if needed. The only downside I might say is my husband doesn’t drink, but drinks non alcohol beer and I wish more activities like these would have that option, it truly is not fun to not feel included on a booze cruise that you are graciously doing with your wife and daughters. The sail it self was gorgeous, the timing was perfect for the peek of the sunset and the glow bouncing off mountains and pacific. The price was very reasonable…”
