Go With the Flow to the Grotto
The Wailua River is the only navigable river in Hawaii. The Wailua area itself was once royal grounds in the olden days, and boat operators will share their fascinating stories while family members entertain guests with Hawaiian songs. The destination of the cruise is the famous Fern Grotto, a lava rock grotto covered with tropical ferns. At the grotto, you will be serenaded by Hawaiian musicians playing traditional, local songs. In this beautiful, tropical jungle setting, nature has formed a natural amphitheatre with acoustics that are remarkable.
