Kilauea is the youngest shield volcano and is the most active. It is located on the Island of Hawaii, which is often called the Big Island. Kilauea is having one of the most long-lasting known eruptions. Since 1983 it has produced lava flows covering nearly 40 miles, adding new coastlines to the island. Its eruptions are prominent in Hawaiian-Polynesian legends. Kilauea has a crater called Halemaumau, which, according to Hawaiian folklore is the home of Pele, the Goddess of Fire and volcanos.

The rates listed above are not guaranteed, and we may not be able to secure your cabin near the other HOP attendees, if purchased after the recall dates. Escapees will attempt to secure your preferred cabin, if space is still available. Most cruises sell out early, so it’s critical to book early, even though this cruise is scheduled for NEXT YEAR!
