Ocean Discovery – Kahului (Maui), Hilo & Kailua Kona

About this cruise

7 nights is that sweet spot where you actually start to relax. This sailing from Honolulu on June 10, 2028 visits Kahului, Hilo, Kailua-Kona and Nawiliwili and doesn't try to cram in too much. A few ports come in quick succession, which is great for sightseeing but means you'll appreciate the sea days when they arrive. Each island feels different: Maui's beaches, the Big Island's lava fields, Kauai's cliffs. Kahului stands out. It's Maui's gateway to the Road to Hana. Around 13 hours per port on average, which is generous enough to go beyond the obvious. There are 13 restaurants on Pride of America, so you'd need to double up a few evenings to try them all in 7 nights. Honolulu itself is worth spending some time in. Don't just treat it as a departure point. The timing works well too: warm evenings on deck, late sunsets, and a lively atmosphere. All in all, it's a solid trip.
