ITINERARY
--------------------
Activities at Paradise Cove include:
Arts and Crafts:
The arts and crafts of old Hawaii are as beautiful as they are intricate and complex. During your visit to Paradise Cove, be sure to visit the Hawaiian Village and take part in arts and crafts demonstrations. Learn how to make a traditional Hawaiian lei or leave with a slightly more permanent memory, temporary Polynesian tattoos.
Hawaiian Games:
In ancient Hawaii, games were created as a form of entertainment, but also to develop the skills of the warriors. At Paradise Cove you can take part in some of the more popular traditional Hawaiian games. To test your skills try 'O'o ihe (Spear throwing), 'Ulu maika (Rolling stone disks) and Moa pahe'e (Dart sliding).
Shower of Flowers:
Imagine standing on a beautiful white sand beach gently showered by fragrant island flowers. Witness skilled tree-climbers ascend the highest of palm trees and spread the aloha of the islands with a floral cascade, making this dream-like scene into an experience you will remember forever.
Hukilau on the Beach:
Paradise Cove keeps the traditions of old Hawaii alive with a nightly Hukilau on the beach. You are invited to participate in the ceremonial pulling of the fish nets to the rhythms of the conch shell and Hawaiian chant
Imu Ceremony:
At Hawaii's only Imu Amphitheater, take a seat to view the elaborate process of traditional cooking in the Hawaiian underground oven. In a ceremony following the practices and rituals of ancient times, you will see exactly how your delicious Hawaiian meal is prepared.
Paradise Cove Extravaganza:
With the most spectacular Hawaiian sunset as a backdrop, the Paradise Cove Main Stage explodes with the beauty and excitement of the traditional songs and dances of Hawaii and Polynesia.

Pleasant Evening
Natalie_N, Aug 2022
The venue was lovely, dinner was nice and the show was great. Unfortunately for us there was an accident in the freeway hence major traffic hold ups so our bus arrived much later than planned and missed out on most of the pre show activities. Beyond the control of Paradise Cove - but disappointing
Poor Luau
Andrew_F, Aug 2022
This Luau is definately not worth 700 dollars for 3 adults , 3 youths !! Food was average , queues for bar were way too long, seats were right at the side with poor viewing, then at 8.30 the bar closed and cudnt get another drink .Very poor
Great Experience
Jose_O, Aug 2022
The location is great and the sunset even better. There is A LOT of food and a great show. Totally recommend.
It wasn’t great but it wasn’t horrible
Brooke_G, Aug 2022
We were excited initially, but soon realized how overwhelmingly crowded it was. Hundreds and hundreds of people! The food wasn’t good at all, because I know that it must be very hard preparing food for that many people. The show was OK. Loved the fire performer and the other dancers were very good. I’m sorry but we were disappointed, but glad we finally saw a luau.
Nice
raquelzamora, Aug 2022
Wonderful time. Hala and David are amazing. Hala kept us entertained the way to the Luau and back. Hala is so funny. Luaua was good. Taking pictures with the birds was great. Make sure to walk around as soon as you get there. They have many things to see and do. Show was great.
We had an amazing time...
Deyci_M, Aug 2022

We have fresh beautiful orchids leis & very nice photo taken by the professional photographer & $20 cash card to spend at the bar
Great Luau and entertainment
Serge_A, Aug 2022
Great food and dances especially the fire dance. This was definitely a show stopper in my opinion. The performer was so good. Too bad we could not see the dances that well from our tables located at the end of the row. This is my only negative comment.
Anniversary Luau
Cheryl_J, Aug 2022
We selected the deluxe package for our anniversary celebration. We were seated right up front by the stage. The food was delicious and the show was amazing. We absolutely loved every aspect of the Luau. The fire dance was our favorite. I would recommend this experience to anyone who wants to see the Hawaiian culture and have fun.
