RSVP Cruises, a gay-friendly cruise company, is celebrating its 25th anniversary with a new sailing expedition to Hawaii.

The eight-day cruise launches from Honolulu on Oct. 30, on the  Pride of America operated by Norwegian Cruise Line. The ship has 10 restaurants, multiple piano bars, gym, spa, volleyball court, pools and cabaret lounges.

The cruise will stop at four islands in the Hawaiian archipelago — Maui, Oahu, Kauai and the Big Island  — with overnight stays on Maui and Kauai. On-shore activities will include volcano-watching on the Big Island, surfing in Maui and helicopter rides across the Garden Island of Kauai.

Fares start at $899 for an inside stateroom with two beds, and go as high as $4,999 for the Grand Suite with butler service.
