One way to do this is to book an excursion at the tour desk in the lobby of Aulani. They offer many excursions, including flights to the other islands for the day. I did a couple of these excursions and just wished I had more time for others as there are so many good ones to choose that it is hard to just choose a couple.<\/p>\n<p>One day we went on a catamaran excursion on a beautiful new catamaran that holds about 80 people\u2014it was large! We only sailed out a short time before we saw some sea turtles and a pod of dolphins that enjoyed swimming along beside us. We docked so that people could snorkel and swim in the beautiful clear water, then lunch was served before we headed back in. They offer soft drinks, juice and alcohol.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_8498\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-8498\" style=\"width: 400px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\"

online for the day I could go, plus I didn\u2019t want to worry about driving. It was a great choice and also only a few hours, which left the afternoon for something else. The shuttle picks you up at the resort then heads to Pearl Harbor. You get there early enough to check out the museums and if you want, for a small charge you can also tour a submarine. You then take the boat out to the USS Arizona Memorial where you can spend plenty of time before the boat ride back. The price is reasonable and if you can\u2019t get tickets online, or don\u2019t want to wait once there, this is a great way to go.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_8584\"

The garlic shrimp were large, and you needed plenty of napkins, but so worth it, but then the best part came at the end in the form of a chocolate haupia pie.
