Choose your port »Hawaiian Islands Ports
Hawaiian cruises often call at four islands in a week, and each has a different personality: war history and city beaches on Oahu, crater roads and coastal drives on Maui, lava fields on the Big Island and sea cliffs on Kauai. Rental cars are widely available, which makes self-guided days a real alternative to tours.

Can I rent a car instead of booking a tour in Hawaii?
Yes, and on a port day it can be the cheapest option for a family or small group. Reserve ahead, confirm the agency offers a shuttle from the pier, and plan a route that leaves time to refuel and return before all-aboard.
Which Hawaiian port is best for seeing a volcano?
Hilo is the closer port for Hawaii Volcanoes National Park, which is under an hour away by road. From Kona the park is a long drive, so many passengers there choose ocean activities or the coffee country instead.
