Atlantis Submarine Adventure
The country's only submarine tour is on Hawaii. The Atlantis actually takes you to the bottom of the sea to explore the island's fascinating marine life. The ride includes a 20-minute over-the-water tour, which takes you through islets and allows you to see the green of the islands. Then, once the submarine reaches the dive site, it will submerge for an additional 40-minutes under-the-water dive. You'll also see ship wrecks, a crashed airplane and an artificial coral reef.

Creation - A Polynesian Journey
This live show takes you through the creation myth; it's told according to Polynesians. Laser lights, live performers, lavish costumes, music and pyrotechnics are part of the production. There are also magic and illusion scenes. Princesses vanish, and dancers jump through the air while fire and knives are thrown all around them.

Diving
Unless the waters are rough, scuba divers can still go in when it's raining. In fact, scuba diving is a great rainy-day activity; it allows you to still enjoy the outdoors without worrying about the rain. There are numerous dive operators in Hawaii, and choosing one is mostly a matter of preference and location. AquaZone, on the island of Oahu, offers free scuba diving lessons, beginner and advanced dives, daily boat dives, shark cage adventures (divers are in cages, not sharks) and equipment rental. Dives can explore wreck sites, reef life and caves.
