Reef Shadow – Maui, Hilo & Nawiliwili
About this cruise
7 nights is that sweet spot where you actually start to relax. This sailing from Honolulu on September 5, 2026 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. Keep an eye out for Hilo: Orchids and waterfalls on the Big Island. Around 10 hours per port on average, which is generous enough to go beyond the obvious. From casual buffets to proper sit-down restaurants, Pride of America has 13 dining spots on board, most of them included. The autumn timing is underrated too. Good weather, calmer seas, and a more relaxed ship. That's 7 nights well spent.
