Though large passenger ships dock regularly in Hawaii on their way through the Pacific, several beautiful ships also offer a strictly Hawaiian Island itinerary.

Norwegian Cruise Line is one that operates several cruise ships in Hawaiian waters. These stylish ships offer weekly itineraries visiting ports on the major Hawaiian Islands: Oahu (Honolulu port), Maui (Kahului or Lahaina), Kauai (Lihue) and the Big Island (Hilo and Kailua-Kona). One of these cruises also visits Fanning Island, a small tropical island 1,200 miles south of Hawaii. NEW: the Pride of America, a U.S.-flagged ship that sails a strictly Hawaiian Island route.

Choose from 7-, 10- or 11-day interisland cruises year round, with longer stays in port for exploration and adventure.
