Active Volcano?

Hello. I am going to Waikiki for a few days in August for my honeymoon and a groomsman just told me that there is an active volcano on the Big Island and that I can probably catch a cruise from Waikiki to see the volcano at night. Does anyone know anything about this? Thanks!

Newspapers have been covering the current eruption; however, google Big Island Volcano and go to the NPS website for current stuff. Right now, you park at the end of a formerly closed road, and walk a brief distance to view the lava entering the sea. Or, you can go to Volcano National Park and see the giant crater and currently very active vent; no lava, buts lots of action.

I have never heard of a cruise but you can go by plane and do a helicopter tour over the volcano area as a day-trip to Big Island from Waikiki.

It is 200 miles from Waikiki to the Big Island. No cruises to see the volcano.
