Oahu's Best Hawaiian Luaus
Oahu is the home of many of the most famous Hawaiian luaus including the Polynesian Cultural Center Luau, Germaine's Luau, Paradise Cove Luau, Royal Hawaiian Luau and the Sea Life Park Luau.
The Hawaiian luaus and feasts on Oahu are heavily steeped in hawaiian history, polynesian history, hula dancing and all facets of Hawaiian culture.
Luaus on Oahu are all similar to the extent that they all include a full compliment of Hawaiian foods such as lomi lomi salmon, chicken long rice, kalua pork (prepared underground in a pit or "imu") haupia and of course poi. Some of Oahu's Hawaiian luaus include various options that allow for special seating and upgraded food choices.
One unusual aspect of the luaus on Oahu is that they are all located some distance from the tourist centers of Waikiki. As a result these luaus will all provide transportation to and from or if you have your own vehicle you could drive on your own.
Please keep in mind that the Polynesian Cultural Center is famous for more than simply their luau and hula show. The Polynesian Cultural Center is generally considered to be one of the biggest attractions in Hawaii. The various island cultures of polynesia are displayed in a series of villages throughout the property. The luau is a big event in the evening but you are free to wander the villages (complete with guides if you'd like) throughout the afternoon.
- Hawaii is the only place to attend an authentic Hawaiian luau, this is a "don't miss" on your list of things to do on Oahu.

Best Luaus on Oahu - Luaus are the big attraction on Oahu. No question about it, luaus on Oahu are the single biggest event participated in by our island visitors. And why shouldn’t they be. This is the quintessential Hawaiian party and feast. You won’t find anything like it anywhere in the world. I always rationalize that I’ll be going out to eat somewhere that night anyway so for a little more why not include the show and the entire orchestrated event into the evening excitement. Oahu luaus are certainly among the most famous in the state. All provide transportation to and from and one, the Sea Life Park luau even includes entrance to the park and exhibits prior to the show and even for a month after the day of your big Hawaiian feast. Remember that luaus here are a must and they won’t let you back on the plane to go home if your passport is not stamped and validated by your luau provider. Just kidding, but you and your family and friends will love attending a luau while on your vacation to Oahu.
