You'll visit four islands—Oahu, the Big Island, Maui, and Kauai—way more fun than staying in one place! And with so many exciting, active adventures (biking down volcanoes, hiking in craters, or kayaking the coastline, to name a few) no one will ever be bored. Your itinerary includes an overnight stay in Kauai, so you'll have plenty of time to explore this wild isle.

Head up to Deck 11 for cooling fun: Three pools entice the kids, while three bars provide frosty refreshment for the adults. Take a hula-dancing or lei-making class, or melt tense muscles with a massage in the spa. Be sure to try at least one of the three premium restaurants, though everyone—especially the kids—will love the bountiful buffet at Hukilau Find out more.

In a word, freedom. It's all about a comfortable, informal vacation that fits your family's needs. Want to wear flip-flops for the entire cruise? Eat ice cream three times a day? Rent a car and explore Kauai on your own? Go for it! You'll also find great kids' programs: Kid's Crew offers active fun for kids 2–12, while Teen's Crew has parties, a disco, and an arcade for the 13–17 set. Find out more about the kids’ programs on Norwegian Cruise Line.
