Things to do in LAIE, HAWAII...


POLYNESIAN CULTURAL CENTER...  Explore Interactive activities in each of the 8 Island Villages.  End the day with a Luau and an Amazing Night Show.  




 LAIE POINT... Just past the Polynesian Cultural Center on Kamehameha Highway.    Across from Foodland take Anemoku Street at the light and go to the right on Naupaka Street to the end where you'll see a small parking lot.  From Laie Point you can see the Windward Coast, Goat Island and the North Shore.  If you saw the movie "Forgetting Sarah Marshall" you might remember a scene filmed at Laie Point were Rachel jumps off a cliff.  Be careful if you decide to jump and watch out for the reef!


 LAIE HAWAII TEMPLE... You can visit the Laie Hawaii Temple Visitors' Center and learn more about the LDS Temple.  Make sure you check out the beautiful gardens.


HUKILAU CAFE... Popular with the locals and students from nearby BYU-Hawaii.  The restaurant is famous for being the alleged site where Adam Sandler and Drew Berrymore met in "50 First Dates".  The movie was filmed in a different location but the cast and crew of 50 First Dates were regulars during the filming.  Open Tuesday-Saturday.


Surfin' Tacos... My favorite place to eat while staying in Laie was Surfin' Tacos in nearby Hauula.  They have live entertainment on the weekends.

The Bathtub Beach In Laie...
A reef protects the beach from waves at low tide which makes it a great beach for kids of all ages.  We rented a Beach House on the Bathtub.  Click here to learn more about the house we rented.

You guys do the BEST trips! Charlotte is one lucky little lady. I need to get back to Hawaii. I think I was meant to be in Kauai! There was a mix-up somewhere along the line. The house you rented looked great. I will have to remember that! Glad you had fun!
