Hawaiian Luau

Traditionally, Hawaiians had many occasions for feasts and celebrations: battle victories; seasonal events; and for welcoming guests. These events often involved days of planning and preparation.

Today, the luau is an elaborate Hawaiian feast featuring traditional foods and entertainment. These are usually outdoor, buffet style with torch-lit tables of sumptuous foods, drinks, and desserts for the whole family. Entertainment consists of spirited Polynesian song and dance. Aloha attire is appropriate.

There are several good Luaus on Kauai and your vacation wouldn't be complete without attending one. We've listed some below for your convenience.
