• ENTERTAINMENT
From comedy to magic, show
bands to local bands, you’ll want to spend a few evenings
enjoying yourselves. Going to a lu‘au is also a must. Generally
included in this Hawaiian feast, apart from the great food,
is hula dancing, singing, ancient arts and crafts, games
and traditional ceremonies. So go out and find something
to do!
Hawai‘i is incredibly
beautiful by land, sea or air. By land, there are many guided
tours that are available as well as rent-a-cars to go exploring
on your own. By sea, sail to one of your favorite snorkeling
areas or take a dinner cruise at sunset. By air, experience
the thrill of a glider ride or helicopter tour. With over
500 full-color pages, Spotlight’s Gold Magazines
offer many interesting options for touring our piece of
paradise.
