Maitai Catamaran – Friday Night Fireworks Sail

Friday nights in Waikiki end with a sparkle, and you have the best seat in the house—the open deck of a 44-foot twin-hulled catamaran built for smooth sailing along the shoreline. You push off barefoot from the sand just before dusk, sip a chilled Mai Tai, and watch the sky fade from purple to midnight blue while the crew shares fun facts about the islands.

Once darkness settles, the Hilton Hawaiian Village launches its weekly Aloha Friday fireworks. Bursts of color reflect across the water as the captain keeps the catamaran perfectly positioned for unobstructed views. With city lights twinkling behind and Mahina, the moon, overhead, every pop and shimmer feels extra magical.

The 90-minute voyage includes unlimited beverages poured by an upbeat crew. Raise a glass of Champagne or clink a can of local beer while the onboard sound system spins island tunes. Two bow nets invite you to stretch out beneath the stars, and the roomy swim step makes boarding and disembarking easy.
