Night Zipline at Coral Crater Adventure Park — Oahu After‑Dark Zipline Experience
When the sun drops behind Oahu’s ridgelines, Coral Crater’s night zipline turns speed into a sensory game: headlamps, s’mores by firelight, and three adrenaline lines threaded across volcanic gullies. This 75‑minute after‑dark run blends thrills with practical prep—weights, shoes and a 24‑hour transport call.
The Experience
Before You Go
Arrive early and be weighed
Check‑in is strict—arrive 15 minutes early and be ready to provide exact weights for all participants to meet safety limits.
Closed‑toed shoes only
Crocs, trail shoes or sneakers work; sandals or flip‑flops are not allowed and will bar you from zipping.
Dress warm and bring a headlamp
Even on warm days the temperature can drop after sunset—pack a light jacket and a headlamp for walking between platforms.
Call for transport 24 hours ahead
If you need pickup from Waikiki, call the operator at least 24 hours before your tour to arrange transportation.
Local Knowledge
Hidden Gems
- •S’mores and campfire briefly set you inside a small, lively gathering—watch for clearings where the Milky Way is visible.
- •Ask guides about native plant uses; pockets of native flora still dot the property and the guides often point out medicinal and construction plants.
Wildlife
- •Coqui frogs (night call)
- •Nēnē or other local birds may be heard—bats sometimes flit in the dark
Conservation Note
Operators emphasize stay‑on‑trail policies and limit lighting to reduce disturbance to nocturnal wildlife; follow guide instructions to minimize impact.
The park reuses former quarry and volcanic slope land for recreation; Oahu’s geology is rooted in volcanic activity that shaped ridgelines and gullies ziplines cross today.
Photographer's Notes
- • First platform looking downhill over the gully
- • Campfire staging area for portraits with lantern light
- • Final landing area with view back toward the ridge
