Frog Family Rating:
Established in 1963 adjacent to the Church College of Hawaii (now Brigham Young University Hawaii), the Polynesian Cultural Center initially served as a source of income for students and a platform for preserving and showcasing the rich cultures, arts, and crafts of Polynesia. Originating from the town of Laʻie's weekly hukilaus—a community fish fry with entertainment and community support in mind—the center has evolved into Hawaii's premier attraction. Explore the rich heritage of the Pacific Islands and wander through 42 acres of tropical splendor. From hands-on activities to traditional dining experiences like an authentic Polynesian luau, the Polynesian Cultural Center has something for the whole family to enjoy for an unfrogettable experience in Hawaii.
