The beachfront community of Waikiki is located in the city of Honolulu on the island of Oahu. Waikiki attracts many tourists for its public parks, white sandy beaches and views of Diamond Head. There are many luxury hotels and high end shops located here to accommodate tourism. If you are planning a visit to Waikiki for business or for pleasure, be sure to attend a luau Waikiki to celebrate the traditions and people of this area.
For your luau event you can book round trip tickets to and from your hotel. No need to worry about a designated driver. Upon your arrival, as is customary in Hawaii, you will be greeted with a fresh lei made of shells, flowers or maybe the locally grown kukua nuts. Next you may have the opportunity to experience the imu ceremony.
You may be wondering what an imu is. It is an underground oven that Hawaiians use to cook an entire pig. The meat is steamed for hours making it very tender. At the imu ceremony Hawaiians dressed traditionally for the ceremony pull the cooked pig from the oven and take it to the kitchen for shredding. The ceremony is simple, but guests get a chance see how food is prepared on the islands. Shredded pork, sweet potatoes, fish and poi will be some of the items on the luau menu.
Your luau may include a hukailau which is an ancient way of fishing created by the Hawaiians. All the guests and natives get together to pull a huge net from the sea, which will be full of fresh fish. This is another simple way of demonstrating the culture. Once prepared, the fish will likely be the freshest you have ever eaten.
Typically the mai tai punch is complimentary, and cocktail mai tais can be purchased by the adult guests. The Hawaiian revue will entertain guests and educate them about more of the culture. There are many traditional dances which will be performed by men and women in full costume. There certainly will be some hulu dancing and guests may be invited to join in, but you will be amazed by the variety of dances and ceremonies.
Finally after all these fun events have taken place, there will be the luau buffet. This may be more food than you ever imagined. In almost all cultures the offering of food is a way of saying welcome and happy you are here. This is certainly true in the Hawaiian culture, and guests will reap the culinary benefits of this warm welcome.
Luau packages are available from basic to deluxe. Most places offer three different prices. If you choose the deluxe one, you may receive a traditional Hawaiian gift at the end of the evening. Whatever package you choose, the prices are affordable.
As wonderful as the luau will be, it is only a small slice of Hawaiian culture. In 1959 Hawaii became a state when it officially joined the United States. The citizens of the Hawaiian islands continue to welcome people from the continental United States and from all over the world. Make the most of your visit to this island paradise that is part of our country.
