Guide to Cruise Ports and Terminals
There are two cruise terminals in Honolulu Hawaii, on the Hawaiian Island of Oahu.
The original cruise terminal is located at the iconic Aloha Tower in the heart of Honolulu. It has welcomed cruise passengers to the island since the dawn of the modern cruise industry and was immortalized in old Elvis Presley movies.
The terminal is located at the foot of Bishop Street in the heart of Oahu's largest city.
The newer Honolulu Cruise Terminal, which is much larger, is called Terminal 2. It is located between the Aloha Tower and Waikiki.
