You'll be greeted at the gangway by cheerful hula dancers. As you're seated, you'll be treated to a welcome cocktail prior to your meal. As the ship sails placidly along the Waikiki coastline, you'll enjoy panoramic views of Waikiki Beach and the sunset while enjoying a delicious meal. Once you've had dinner, you're free to stroll the decks, sip a cocktail while you enjoy the on-deck entertainment, or revel in the breathtaking views visible from the Observation Deck at the top of the ship. Star of Honolulu
Few things are more beautiful than the sunset from Waikiki, and being on the water watching that sunset just heightens the experience. Navatek Cruises provides the opportunity to experience this heady Polynesian beauty on a daily basis, with various perks that make it even more special. You'll dine on fine foods as the Navatek I cruises gracefully beyond Diamond Head, offering a rare backside view not only of this world-famous Waikiki landmark, but also of a breathtaking expanse of the unforgettable Kahala Gold Coast. You'll find no other dinner cruise that offers you this striking view. Not only that, the Navatek I boasts the smoothest dinner cruise Hawaii has to offer; its design allows it to virtually glide across the water, a fact you're sure to appreciate.
After a buffet dinner in Blue Hawaii Room on the ship's lower deck, you can enjoy a fine contemporary Hawaiian show featuring an outstanding cast of dancers and musicians. If you opt for the Royal Sunset Dinner Cruise, you can combine the experience with a scenic drive up to Mt. Tantalus to view the city lights of Honolulu after the cruise. For a little extra, upgrade to the Royal Sunset Alii Club, which provides transportation by limousine, a fabulous lei greeting, a glass of champagne and beverage upgrade, and private table seating. Now that's luxury!
