"WAIKIKI" BEACH "Spouting Water" 2909 Kalakaua Avenue (Outrigger CanoeClub) to 2005 Kalia Road (Kahanamoku Lagoon) One thinks of Hawai`i and their thoughts will usuallyinclude an image of Waikiki Beach. This is basically a two milestretch of coast fronted by hotels and tourism related facilitiesand the very beautiful Kapiolani Park. Waikiki Beach is usually crowded but is a very nice areawhere one can swim, canoe, surf and snorkel. The areas towardsDiamond Head are near to the expansive picnic and recreationalfacilities, including those of Kapiolani Park. Kristina Malsberger writes, "As I threadmy way through a maze of umbrellas, sand castles, and bronzebodies, it seems that some things have hardly changed since thedays when Bing Crosby crooned 'Sweet Leilani' here in the1937 film 'Waikiki Wedding.' Yes, the surfboards andswimsuits have shrunk and the high-rise forest has grown, butfolks still come here for the same reasons as always: to soak upthe tropical sunshine, to splash around in the surf, and toengage in that unique Waikiki tradition — the outriggercanoe ride." Newcomers should take special care whenusing personal flotation devices (e.g., inflatable mattresses,styrofoam swim boards, et al.) — they are just nosubstitute for good swimming technique. Be wary of runawaysurfboards - they can be dangerous. Ask the lifeguards where thedeep holes are. Stay off of the breakwater and sea walls; theyare slippery and you can get pounded and hurt - especially duringhigh surf.
