Hawaii's Polynesian Cultural Center, located about one hour's
scenic drive from Waikiki, is the top paid Hawaii attraction
for a reason. Our seven native villages give visitors the rare
chance to participate in the daily adventures of Hawaiian and
other South Pacific cultures. Add Hawaii's most authentic luau
and the world's largest Polynesian night show and you'll see
why every trip to Hawaii should include a visit to the
Polynesian Cultural Center.
