Honeymoon In Hawaii. My wife and I toured the Dole Plantation while on our honeymoon. We went to several places but really enjoyed our time at the Dole Plantation. We attempted the maze without much success. We also took the short but beautiful train ride. You must have the pineapple ice cream before leaving. It is amazing! Be sure to read about our entire honeymoon on our blog at centralbeat com

Fun and Interesting BUT absolute tourist trap. If you ever have walked into a mall shop specializing in useles junk, such as Sharper Image or the Hello Kitty store or Aaahs, this place is just like that. But, instead of vibrating pillows and Picachu pens and motorized fingers, it's all pineapple. Pineapple t-shirts, pineapple pens, pineapple hot sauce, pineapple reading lamps etc etc. I would still recommend going if nothing else to say you've done it as well as to check out the grounds. The maze is interesting (no, i wont go with the "aMAZE-ing" cliche), the fish in the pond are crazy for food and the store is eccentric. I did like the pineapple slushy though. Plus, its a good stop before continuing on to North Shore.

All things pineapple and a giant maze lure visitors to this family-friendly attraction near Haleiwa.. In Short
Curious about the pineapple? Visitors heading to or returning from the North Shore can stop at the Dole Plantation for a train ride, garden tour, or a crack at the World's Largest Maze. The narrated Pineapple Express goes through pineapple fields, presenting a unique insight into Hawaiian agriculture. Visitors learn the history of the Dole enterprise, from a small farm to the world's largest producer and marketer of pineapples. The garden tour features a variety of pineapples and a fish pond. The plantation shop features gifts, snacks, and the refreshing frozen DoleWhip treat.
