PORTS OF CALL

Honolulu, Oahu, Hawaii

Combine the languid allure of the tropics with big-city sophistication, then add the spirit of aloha, and you've got Honolulu. This Pacific crossroads offers a profound day of discovery, perfectly balancing historical reflection with natural splendor. A visit to Pearl Harbor is an essential, moving experience, offering a solemn look into a pivotal moment in world history at the USS Arizona Memorial and the Battleship Missouri.

For a change of pace and perspective, consider the rewarding hike up Diamond Head (Lēʻahi). The panoramic views of the coastline and the turquoise ocean from the summit are an unforgettable reward for your efforts. Of course, no visit is complete without experiencing fabled Waikiki Beach. Beyond the sunbathers, you can try a beginner's surf lesson on its gentle waves or simply stroll along the shore as pink sunsets begin to cast their magical glow. For a deeper dive into Hawaiian heritage, explore the meticulously restored Iolani Palace, the only official royal residence in the United States, which offers a unique glimpse into the island's sovereign past. Between these iconic sites, immerse yourself in the local culture by savoring a fresh poke bowl or a classic plate lunch from a neighborhood eatery. In Honolulu, the air, blanketed in the heady fragrance of gardenias and jasmine, invites you to relax, reflect, and recharge.

Kahului, Maui, Hawaii

Kahului serves as the practical gateway to the legendary landscapes of Maui. While the port itself is industrial, it is the starting point for some of Hawaii's most profound natural experiences. Your day here is a matter of choosing a direction, as the island’s diverse regions offer distinctly different adventures.

For a truly immersive, full-day commitment, two iconic journeys beckon. The Road to Hana is a winding, 64-mile drive through a lush rainforest, past cascading waterfalls and dramatic coastal cliffs—an experience more about the journey than the destination. Alternatively, ascend to the summit of Haleakalā, the "House of the Sun." This dormant volcano offers an otherworldly, cloud-level perspective of a vast crater, a stark and beautiful landscape unlike any other. Due to their length and complexity, pre-arranged tours are the most efficient way to experience these wonders from a cruise ship.

For a less demanding but equally rewarding day, explore the Iao Valley State Monument, a sacred and verdant valley featuring the iconic Kīpuka Puaulu (Iao Needle). Nearby, the bohemian surf town of Paia offers unique shops and a relaxed vibe, while further upcountry, Makawao provides a glimpse into Maui's paniolo (cowboy) heritage with its charming boutiques and galleries. The North Shore's Ho'okipa Beach is a fantastic spot to watch world-class windsurfers and spot green sea turtles resting on the sand.

Please be mindful that West Maui, including the historic town of Lahaina, is in a long-term recovery phase following the 2023 wildfires. Visitors are encouraged to explore the many other beautiful and welcoming areas of the island.

Hilo, Hawaii Island

Hilo offers a glimpse into the untamed, elemental side of Hawaii, a world away from manicured resorts. As the island's lush, rain-fed capital, it serves as the primary gateway to the geological marvel of Hawaiʻi Volcanoes National Park. A visit here is the undisputed main event, but requires commitment: it's a 45- to 60-minute drive each way. Once there, you can walk through the otherworldly Thurston Lava Tube, witness steam billowing from volcanic vents, and gaze into the immense Kīlauea caldera. It is essential to set expectations: visible lava flows are rare and unpredictable, but the raw power of the landscape is always palpable. For those seeking a less time-intensive day, Hilo’s immediate surroundings are rich with natural beauty. Just minutes from the port, Rainbow Falls offers a lovely and accessible viewpoint. For a more dramatic experience, a short drive north leads to ʻAkaka Falls State Park, where a towering waterfall plunges into a gorge. The region is also home to world-class botanical gardens, such as the Hawaii Tropical Bioreserve & Garden, which showcases the area's incredible biodiversity. Downtown Hilo itself is not a polished tourist hub but an authentic, historic town with a celebrated farmers market and the serene Liliʻuokalani Gardens. A day in Hilo is best spent choosing one key adventure: the epic journey to the volcano or a deeper exploration of the waterfalls and gardens closer to port.

Kona, Hawaii Island

Kona offers a genuine taste of old Hawaii, distinct from the state's more modern resort centers. As a tender port, you arrive directly into the heart of the walkable seaside town of Kailua-Kona. While the town itself has its charms, including the historic Huliheʻe Palace and Mokuʻaikaua Church, Kona’s most profound experiences lie along its sun-drenched coast and in the cool uplands.

The region is, of course, synonymous with coffee. A short drive or tour into the hills of Holualoa reveals the Kona Coffee Belt, where numerous small, family-run farms welcome visitors. Here, you can walk through the coffee groves, learn about the bean-to-cup process, and sample some of the world's most prized coffee at its source. This is an authentic agricultural and culinary experience.

For a deep dive into Hawaiian culture, nothing compares to Puʻuhonua o Hōnaunau National Historical Park, about a 45-minute drive south. This beautifully restored royal compound and sacred place of refuge offers a powerful, tangible connection to the island’s past. It is a quiet, spiritual place that rewards thoughtful exploration.

Water activities are centered around Kealakekua Bay, a protected marine life conservation district with exceptional snorkeling and diving. The bay is also the historic site where Captain James Cook was killed. Accessing the best snorkeling spots typically requires a boat tour, which is well worth the effort for the clarity of the water and abundance of marine life. Kona provides a compelling blend of significant history, world-class agriculture, and natural beauty, best accessed with a pre-arranged tour or rental car.

Nawiliwili, Kauai, Hawaii

Kauai is Hawaii’s oldest and most dramatic island, a landscape defined by staggering natural beauty rather than sprawling resorts. The port at Nawiliwili is the gateway to this 'Garden Isle,' though its greatest treasures require a journey inland or along its famed coastline.

Two experiences define Kauai's epic scale. The first is Waimea Canyon, a massive, 14-mile-long chasm often called the 'Grand Canyon of the Pacific.' Its deep, crimson-rock gorges striated with lush green foliage create a spectacle of color and depth that is truly breathtaking from its numerous roadside lookouts. The second is the legendary Na Pali Coast, a sacred and inaccessible stretch of coastline where sheer, emerald-green cliffs, fluted by time and waterfalls, drop thousands of feet to the ocean. As it is unreachable by car, the only ways to witness its majesty are via a dramatic helicopter flight or a rugged boat tour along its base.

For those seeking more accessible beauty, the Wailua River Valley offers gentle kayaking excursions to the Fern Grotto and easy access to the impressive Wailua and Opaekaa Falls. On the island's sunnier south side, Poipu Beach provides a classic Hawaiian beach day, with golden sands, calm waters for snorkeling, and frequent sightings of resting green sea turtles.

A pre-booked rental car or a well-chosen tour is essential. The island’s wonders are spread out, and planning ahead is the key to experiencing the profound beauty of Kauai.

Why Protect your Trip?

Whether you’re planning your next trip or you recently booked one, travel insurance can help smooth over many unexpected travel glitches—while putting your mind at ease, knowing you’re off the hook for covered expenses that could arise from them.

Allianz Travel Insurance plans can provide you benefits and professional support when a covered situation comes up before or during your trip. The following examples may qualify for benefits:

  • Cancelling your trip after unexpectedly becoming too sick to travel
  • Taking care of a sick or injured traveling companion
  • Having to end your trip early due to a family emergency
  • Dealing with a flight delay or cancellation
  • Needing to buy personal items if your luggage is lost or stolen
  • Missing your cruise departure after a covered flight delay

You also can contact our travel protection partner Allianz Global Assistance’s 24/7, award-winning customer service for on-the-go assistance with issues like a medical emergency, replacing your lost passport, or making reservations around the world. To be eligible for a time-sensitive waiver of pre-existing medical condition exclusions, purchase your travel insurance plan within 14 days of initial trip deposit (other purchase requirements and conditions apply). Specific plan benefits may vary. Please review your plan details for more information.

What Can Travel Insurance Help Protect?

Allianz Travel Insurance plans can protect you before and during your trip—keeping you, your loved ones, and your travel budget safer. Benefits vary by plan, and these are brief descriptions. Please read your plan documents for details.

TRIP CANCELLATION

Reimburses your prepaid, non-refundable travel expenses if you need to cancel your trip due to a covered reason, such as you, a family member, or traveling companion experiencing a covered illness or injury. Examples include:

  • A doctor says you or a traveling companion is too sick to fly
  • Your parent or child requires hospitalization
  • You need to attend the birth of a family member’s child
  • You have a traffic accident (not breakdown) on the way to the airport
  • A storm shuts down your airport for 24 hours or more

TRIP INTERRUPTION

Reimburses your unused, non-refundable travel expenses and increased transportation costs during your trip if you have to return home early due to a covered reason, for instance when a family member has a qualifying medical emergency and needs your care. Examples include:

  • You have a covered illness or injury and a doctor says you must return home
  • A family member has a qualifying injury and needs your care
  • A covered emergency, like a fire or flood, makes your home uninhabitable

TRAVEL DELAY

If you have a covered delay while traveling, travel insurance can reimburse you for meals, accommodations, and transportation expenses when your trip is delayed for a minimum number of consecutive hours for a covered reason. Minimum number of hours varies by plan.

EMERGENCY MEDICAL AND DENTAL CARE

Reimburses your expenses related to covered medical and dental emergencies* that might occur on your trip. This benefit can be especially helpful if you have a covered emergency outside the United States, as most health insurance policies won’t cover you outside the country. Examples include:

  • You slip and break your ankle while sightseeing
  • You get food poisoning while sampling the local cuisine
  • You lose a filling and need immediate dental treatment*

*A sublimit and maximum apply for this benefit. Check your plan documents for details.

EMERGENCY MEDICAL TRANSPORTATION

Arranges and pays for medically necessary transportation following a covered injury or illness to the nearest appropriate medical facility to receive care and get you home after treatment.

BAGGAGE LOSS, DAMAGE, or THEFT

Reimburses the replacement of your lost, damaged, or stolen luggage and personal items while traveling.

BAGGAGE DELAY

Reimburses essential items purchased during your trip if your baggage is delayed for a minimum number of hours (varies by plan).

CHANGE FEE

Reimburses fees if you need to change your flight itinerary due to a covered reason.

24-HOUR ASSISTANCE

Provides around-the-clock support during your trip. Allianz Global Assistance’s staff of multilingual problem solvers can help you with medical, legal, and travel-related emergencies whenever they happen. Medical assistance may include, but is not limited to:

  • Medical triage with referrals to local prescreened medical providers
  • Ongoing medical monitoring
  • Payment guarantee
  • Emergency medical transportation

Additional services for travel-related emergencies can help with:

  • Missed connecting flights
