The links will give you information on activities, shows, and luaus, and allow you to make reservations on-line for just about anything you can imagine. Virtual Tour of Old Lahaina Town Penny's Place Inn Paradise Bed and Breakfast is located on the island of Maui, Hawaii, on world famous Front Street in Historic Old Lahaina Town. Just150 feet from the water's edge, we offer ocean views of Lana'i, Moloka'i, and the leeward beaches of Lahaina and the Kaanapali Resort and golf course area. Lahaina Town was once the Whaling capitol of the world and the Royal Capitol of the Hawaiian Islands. The Pacific Whale Foundation now studies and protects the whales that visit between December and April, and the Lahaina Restoration Foundation maintains and protects the historic sites of Lahaina Town dating back to the time of the Monarchy, the Whalers, and the Missionaries. Front street is the main street through town and runs parallel with the water. The colorful buildings resemble an old western town with false fronts and interesting details. There are little shops, galleries, and watering holes in abundance, and it can take several days to find and explore them all. At sunset, it seems, everyone in town gathers along the sea wall to watch the glorious sunset, before dinner at one of Lahaina's many fine restaurants.

This Island Entire Site Destinations Deals/News Bookstore M. Boards Oahu Introduction Planning a Trip For Foreign Visitors Hotels Restaurants Attractions Nightlife Shopping In Depth Walking Tours Walking Tour 1 Walking Tour 2 Walking Tour 3 Walking Tour 4 Active Pursuits Spectator Sports Oahu Maps Message Boards Index Email Print RSS Walking Tour 4 Walking Tour: Kapiolani Park Getting There: From Waikiki, walk toward Diamond Head on Kalakaua Avenue. If you are coming by car, the cheapest parking is metered street parking on Kalakaua Avenue adjacent to the park. TheBus: 19 or 20. Start: Waikiki Beach Center, Kalakaua Avenue, Diamond Head side of the Sheraton Moana Hotel, across the street from the Hyatt Regency and Uluniu Avenue. Finish: Kapiolani Beach Park. Time: 4 to 5 hours. Allow at least an hour each for walking around the park, wandering around the zoo, and exploring the aquarium, plus all the time you want for the beach. Best Time: Weekday mornings. On June 11, 1877, King Kamehameha Day, then-King David Kalakaua donated some 140 acres of land to the people of Hawaii for Hawaii's first park. He asked that the park be named after his beloved wife, Queen Kapiolani, and he celebrated the opening of this vast grassy area with a free concert and "high stakes" horse races (the king loved gambling) on the new horse-racing oval he had built below Diamond Head. The horse races, and the gambling that accompanied it, were eventually outlawed, but the park -- and the free concerts -- live on. Just a coconut's throw from the high-rise concrete jungle of Waikiki lies this 133-acre grassy park (the Paki playground and a fire station make up the remaining acreage) dotted with spreading banyans, huge monkeypod trees, blooming royal poincianas, and swaying ironwoods. Throughout the open spaces are jogging paths, tennis courts, soccer and cricket fields, and even an archery range. People come to the park to listen to music, watch ethnic dancing, exercise, enjoy team sports, take long meditative walks, picnic, buy art, smell the roses, and just relax. The park is the site of international kite-flying contests, the finishing line for the Honolulu marathon, and the home of yearly Scottish highland games, Hawaiian cultural festivals, and about a zillion barbecues and picnics every year. Start at the: 1. Waikiki Beach Center On the ocean side of Kalakaua Avenue, next to the Sheraton Moana Hotel, is a complex of restrooms, showers, surfboard lockers, rental concessions, and the Waikiki police substation. On the Diamond Head side of the police substation are the: 2. Wizard Stones or Healing Stones These four basalt boulders, which weigh several tons apiece and sit on a lava rock platform, are held sacred by the Hawaiian people. The story goes that sometime before the 15th century, four powerful healers from Moaulanuiakea, in the Society Islands, named Kapaemahu, Kahaloa, Kapuni, and Kihohi, lived in the Ulukoa area of Waikiki. After years of healing the people and the alii of Oahu, they wished to return home. They asked the people to erect four monuments made of bell stone, a basalt rock that was found in a Kaimuki quarry and that produced a bell-like ringing when struck. The healers spent a ceremonious month transferring their spiritual healing power, or mana, to the stones. The great mystery is how the boulders were transported from Kaimuki to the marshland near Kuhio Beach in Waikiki! Over time a bowling alley was built on the spot, and the stones got buried beneath the structure. After the bowling alley was torn down in the 1960s, tourists used the stones to eat lunch on or to drape their wet towels over. In 1997 the stones were once again given a place of prominence with the construction of a $75,000 shrine that includes the platform and a wrought-iron fence. Since then the stones have become something of a mecca for students and patients of traditional healing. Just west of the stones you'll find the: 3. Duke Kahanamoku Statue Here, cast in bronze, is Hawaii's most famous athlete, also known as the father of modern surfing. Duke (1890-1968) won Olympic swimming medals in 1912, 1920, 1924, and 1928. He was enshrined in both the Swimming Hall of Fame and the Surfing Hall of Fame. He also traveled around the world promoting surfing. Interestingly, when the city of Honolulu first erected the statue of this lifelong ocean athlete, they placed it with his back to the water. There was public outcry, because no one familiar with the ocean would ever stand with his back to it. To quell the outcry, the city moved the statue closer to the sidewalk. Continuing in the Diamond Head direction, you'll come to: 4. Kuhio Beach Park The two small swimming holes here are great, but heed the warning sign: watch out for holes. There actually are deep holes in the sandy bottom, and you may suddenly find yourself in very deep water. The best pool for swimming is the one on the Diamond Head end, but the water circulation is questionable -- there sometimes appears to be a layer of suntan lotion floating on the surface. If the waves are up, watch the Boogie boarders surf by the seawall. They ride toward the wall and at the last minute veer away with a swoosh. After watching the surfers, cross Kalakaua Avenue and walk mauka down Ohua Avenue; behind St. Augustine's Church you'll find the: 5. Father Damien Museum This small museum is a tribute to the priest who worked with the sufferers of leprosy on Molokai. A video of Father Damien and the leprosy colony is available for viewing here. The museum is open Monday through Friday from 9am to 3pm, and Saturday from 9am to noon; admission is free. Go back to Kalakaua Avenue and walk towards Diamond Head to the entrance of Kapiolani Park, where you'll see the: 6. Kapiolani Park Kiosk On the corner of Kalakaua and Kapahulu avenues, this small display stand contains brochures and actual photos of the park's history. It also carries information on upcoming events at the various sites within the park (Aquarium, Zoo, Waikiki Shell, and Kapiolani Bandstand). An informative map will help to orient you to the park grounds. Continue up Kapahulu Avenue to the entrance of the: 7. Honolulu Zoo The city's 42-acre zoo is open every day from 9am to 4:30pm, but the best time to go is as soon as the gates open -- the animals seem to be more active and it is a lot cooler than walking around at midday in the hot sun. Trace your steps back to Kapahulu and Kalakaua avenues and head mauka down Monsarrat Avenue to the: 8. Kapiolani Park Bandstand Once upon a time, from 1937 to 2002, the Kodak Hula Show presented the art of hula to visitors, with some 3,000 people fit into the bleachers around a grassy stage area every day. The Kodak Hula Show is gone now, but the Bandstand is still used for concerts and special events. Back on Monsarrat Avenue, on the fence facing the zoo, you'll find the: 9. Art Mart The Artists of Oahu Exhibit is the new official name of this display. Here, local artisans hang their artwork on a fence for the public to view and buy. Not only do you get to meet the artists, but you also have an opportunity to purchase their work at a considerable discount from the prices you'll see in galleries. Exhibits are Saturday, Sunday, and Wednesday, 10am to 4pm. Cross Monsarrat Avenue, and you'll see the: 10. Waikiki Shell This open-air amphitheater hosts numerous musical shows, from the Honolulu Symphony to traditional Hawaiian music. Continue walking down to the end of the block to the corner of Monsarrat and Paki avenues to the: 11. Queen Kapiolani Garden You'll see a range of hibiscus plants and dozens of varieties of roses, including the somewhat rare Hawaiian rose. The tranquil gardens are always open and are a great place to wander and relax. Across the street on a Wednesday morning, you'll find the: 12. People's Open Market Open from 10 to 11am on Wednesdays, the farmer's market with its open stalls is an excellent spot to buy fresh produce and flowers. After you make your purchases, continue in the Diamond Head direction down Paki Avenue to the: 13. Diamond Head Tennis Courts Located on the mauka side of Paki Avenue, the free City and County tennis courts are open for play during daylight hours 7 days a week. Tennis etiquette suggests that if someone is waiting for a court, limit your play to 45 minutes. After watching or playing, turn onto Kalakaua Avenue, and begin walking back toward Waikiki to: 14. Sans Souci Beach Located next to the New Otani Kaimana Beach Hotel, this is one of the best swimming beaches in Waikiki. The shallow reef, which is close to shore, keeps the waters calm. Farther out there is good snorkeling in the coral reef by the Kapua Channel. Facilities include outdoor showers and a lifeguard. After a brief swim, keep walking toward Waikiki until you come to the: 15. Natatorium This huge concrete structure next to the beach is both a memorial to the soldiers of World War I and a 100-meter saltwater swimming pool. Opened in 1927, when Honolulu had hopes of hosting the Olympics, the ornate swimming pool fell into disuse and disrepair after World War II, and was finally closed in 1979. The City and County of Honolulu just finished the first phase of renovation, a $4.4 million restoration of the outside arches to the building, construction of modern restrooms and showers and refurbishment of the bleacher seating. The next phase is an $11.5 million renovation of the salt-water swimming pool. After a brief stop here, continue on to the: 16. Waikiki Aquarium The Aquarium is located at 2777 Kalakaua Ave. Try not to miss this stop -- the tropical aquarium is worth a peek if only to see the only living chambered nautilus born in captivity. Your final stop is: 17. Kapiolani Beach Park Relax on the stretch of grassy lawn alongside the sandy beach, one of the best-kept secrets of Waikiki. This beach park is much less crowded than the beaches of Waikiki, plus it has adjacent grassy lawns, barbecue areas, picnic tables, restrooms, and showers. The swimming is good here year-round, a surfing spot known as "Public's," is offshore, and there's always a game going at the volleyball courts. The middle section of the beach park, in front of the pavilion, is known as Queen's Beach or Queen's Surf, and is popular with the gay community.

Hawaiian Food: Luau (

Hawaiian Food - Luau Hawaiian Food Local Recipes Mainland Sources Shop Online Pacific Rim Hawaiian Food Index More Food & Dining Links from the Hawaiian Style Web Directory . The Hawaii Food Bank is a not for profit organization that collects food from the food industry and community, and distributes it to charities feeding those in need. Online donations are accepted at the Hawaii Food Bank Web site. Hawaii School Reports is sponsored by: Quick Facts | People | History | Language | Nature Hawaiian Food: Luau ( L'au ) Related Pages Imu Cooking Luau Party Ideas Luau Recipes We're often asked to recommend the most "authentic" commercial luau in the islands or to suggest which of the foods should be served at a "traditonal" luau. There are no good answers to these questions! If by authentic or traditional, one means what would have been done or served in ancient times, we have to first change the name. The Hawaiian word l'au means young taro tops, and also a dish made with the leaves, cooked with coconut milk and chicken, octopus or squid. This dish was served at celebrations, so it's likely that a visitor, sometime in the 1850s, confused the word for what they were eating with the whole party, and the word stuck. Taro Patch A rose by any name would smell as sweet , and so too is a get together with friends and family, which is the most important thing to remember. Freely sharing what we have and the feeling of community cannot really be bought and sold. Entertainment can be purchased. Food and beverages can be purchased. Friendship and the feeling of belonging and contributing has no retail value! Now that you know that no commercial luau can be either "authentic" or "traditional", we can move on to enjoying the food, the music and dancing, and being with other people. All commercial luau offer this! And this can be incorporated into your backyard barbeque, family picnic, birthday parties or any celebration no matter where you live. If you're looking for a good commercial luau, we recommend that you visit Hawaii Activities and select from the many attractions and activities they make available to order online.
