Toa Luau - Waimea Valley
Visit Toa Luau, the only Oahu luau held in a beautiful botanical garden on the island’s north shore. No matter if you are staying at the nearby Turtle Bay Resort, in Waikiki or elsewhere on the island, Toa Luau is well worth a visit. Upon arrival, you can watch a variety of island arts & crafts and cultural presentations. Later on, sit down to a delicious luau feast, featuring a variety of mouthwatering dishes (see menu below).
