Ahu'ena Heiau
Kamakahonu, the historic site of the Island Breeze Luau, is unique to all of Hawai'i. Here Kamehameha the Great, Hawai'i's king who conquered all the Hawaiian Islands in the early 1800s, made his home and ruled the Islands. Ahu'ena Heiau - the ancient heiau temple is the last residence of Kamehameha the Great. Kamehameha worshiped his gods and sought the advice of his generals and advisors at the Ahu'ena Heiau (the temple adjacent to the luau grounds) and now restored.

Polynesian Arts Demonstration
Upon arrival, you will be greeted with a shell lei and taken a picture with greeters. Once seated, you are invited to participate in Polynesian arts and crafts demonstrations, meet the performers you will later see on stage in the evening. Kilikini has the canoe filled with delicious Mai Tai, fruit punch for the family and an open bar.

Royal Court Procession

Watch the Royal Court procession, representing King Kamehameha I and his retainers, arrives at Kamakahou Bay aboard a traditional outrigger canoe to a greeting by the Court Conch Herald and Court Chanter. Follow this process into the Royal Grounds and witness the uncovering of the Imu, the traditional underground oven. You will see a cooked kalua pork which will be on your plate later on.

Polynesian Revue
The highlight of the evening is the spectacular Island Breeze Polynesian Revue. From the Fijian and Maori dances of war to the gracefulness of Hawaiian hula hands, they bring you and your family a fun-filled evening. Their daring Samoan Fire knife dancer highlights your experience with an astonishing demonstration of bravery and skill! Comprised of performers from across Polynesia, the authenticity and skill of Island Breeze is matched only by the spirit of Aloha they share with the audience.
