Hanauma Bay-Diamond Head-Manalua Bay Duck Tour
These Hawaii Duck Tours are unavailable until further notice.
Your Duck adventure begins when a minibus picks you up at your hotel and takes you to Koko Marina. Here, you will receive snorkel equipment before heading out to Hanauma Bay, one of the most beautiful aquatic spots on the island. Spend a few relaxing hours at Hanauma Bay before hopping back on the bus to go back to Koko Marina. This is where you will catch the brightly-painted Duck for a return trip to Waikiki. Along the way, experience a fully-narrated, 30-minute ocean cruise in Maunalua Bay before the Duck climbs up out of the sea to cruise along the shoreline on Diamond Head Road and through the luxurious Kahala district. Finally you will be returned to your starting point.
Don't forget to bring your camera!
You Will See: Hanauma Bay, Diamond Head, Kahala, Maunalua Bay, and Koko Marina.
The DUKW (D-model year 1942, U-amphibian, K-all wheel drive, W-dual rear axles) is boat-like with a hollow airtight body. It was designed to carry 25 soldiers & their equipment, an artillery piece, or 5,000 pounds of general cargo & ammunition. On land, it can go up to 50 mph - fast enough for touring purposes. The US produced 20,000 DUKWs during WW II. They were first used in the invasion of Sicily in 1943. They played an import role in the invasion of Normandy.
