Island Hopping Under One "Roof"
Experience the beauty and excitement of the Polynesian isles at this Epcot-like cultural park. Across 42 exotic acres, seven villages represent each of the islands, all with informative and entertaining interactive activities, music, dancing and demonstrations. With admission to the Polynesian Cultural Center, you’ll travel from village to village making fire, climbing coconut trees, participating in traditional dances, tasting native foods, exploring a Fijian temple and touring or racing in canoes in a lagoon. Continue your adventure through the islands with an authentic Luau furnished with a mouthwatering display of classic Hawaiian dishes laid out buffet-style. End the evening with the captivating "Ha: Breath of Life," a spectacle that's sure to bring you closer with the spirit of the islands.
Reviews
Wonderful experience. We got there at noon and stayed for the day, ate at the Luau and then stayed for the show "Ha: Breath of Life". It was fun to watch all of the dancers throughout the day and learn about the different cultures. The food at the Luau was awesome and I loved the show!
