Ka Moana Luau - Sea Life Park
Experience a traditional Hawaiian luau at Sea Life Park Hawaii! Ka Moana Luau invites you to a delicious all-you-care-to-eat Hawaiian luau buffet dinner and live island-style entertainment! Located just a half hour east of Waikiki, Sea Life Park is home to the beautiful Makapu’u Meadows, the perfect setting for a Hawaiian luau – backed by tall sea cliffs and overlooking the ocean and two offshore islands.
As the sun sets over the mountains, you can enjoy refreshing cocktails, watch or participate in island arts & crafts (such as hula and ukulele lessons or coconut headband weaving) and learn a little bit about Hawaiian traditions and culture. Then sit down to a mouthwatering buffet dinner. The buffet table is set with a wide variety of delicacies, all prepared by executive chef Joshua Bulock, formerly of Michael Mina's The Street.
The evening culminates with an exhilarating Polynesian show, featuring the vibrant music and dances of Hawaii and greater Polynesia, including the Samoan fire-knife dance! All Ka Moana Luau guests also receive admission tickets to Sea Life Park, with up to seven days to redeem it.
