I’m back home in Honolulu Hawaii! On today’s video, I thought we’d take a walk along Kalakaua Avenue, one of the main streets of world-renowned Waikiki!

I remember the sandy area at Waikiki beach used to be super wide …. I worked at "the blue and white shop" which was a little hole in the wall hotdog stand. I remember the pedi-cabs, my brother "drove" one and then was a pedi-cab mechanic before he went into the Navy. So, so many memories though. One of my sisters made those fancy candles in the International Market Place. And I remember the prostitutes too, some nights when I was getting off Army Reserve duty at Ft. Derussy there'd be tons of them, it was a real laugh.
Love hawaii stay warm all year around ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐
Waikiki is a tourist trap.

Great video
Make video on Kapahulu near LEONARD`s Malasadas place :))) walk down towards Gold coast near Diamon head you see my house … ====
I lived in Waikiki in 80's and 90's. One thing you really missed when you talked about some scary nights in front of the Hyatt Regency, is the Honolulu Police Dept opened the 24 hour Waikiki Station (Hale Maka'i) in 1992, under the leadership of Chief Michael Nakamura. This is the safest beach 24 hours a day in Waikiki since then. It is connected to the concession stand, showers and restrooms that have long been located there. I tell ALL visitors to use THAT beach now because the police station is right there, and it's the last place the troublemakers want to go! Only a few yards away from the Duke's Statue! Mahalo for your video
Just found this video. I loved it, Shinichi! Iโve visited Hawaii twice, and when I was there at Christmas 2017 I did the same โback to Kalakaua Avenueโ walk as you show here. I was surprised at how Waikiki had changed over the years, and I was shocked at how different the International Market Place was. It used to be a bit cheesy, but it was fun. Now itโs all luxury shops, with Saks 5th Avenue, Penhaligons etc. Still I liked walking around there, and I was so happy that the developers had retained the beautiful banyan tree. Here in Australia that tree would have been the first thing to go.
Great video, we love watching your videos in preparation for our first trip to Hawaii
Thank you for the tour. I have been to Hawaii twice, once with my mother. The second time was to scatter some of her ashes as she loved Hawaii so very much. If she had her way, she would have moved there. When I go, I don't do much besides walk to the beach. OMG, this is part of the route I took to the beach every day.
The economy changed why restaurants closed.
Economy changes business…global.
In Waikiki Hawaii no difference.
Looks expensive community
Keeping it green important

Harry Winston……lets put it like this. for the academy awards, actresses wear his multi million dollar jewels escorted by armed guards.does honolulu have a lot of rich residents or are these shops mainly for tourist?
Great video
I love Waikiki. I find it to be more glamorous, fabulous, and cleaner than the rest of Honolulu.
Any Kamaaina here?
Having a walk in Honolulu awesome be safe God BLESS to all
I'm happy I saw this post! My wife & I love Hawaii, and we can't wait until this covid business is in the rearview mirror and we will be back! Thanks again for the video!
yeah, there used to be five theatres in Waikiki, Royal and Kuhio Theatres on Kuhio Ave. and standalone original Waikiki 3 Theatre on Kalakaua Ave., and later, the Waikiki 1 and 2 Theatres just around the corner on the side st. The last of the theatres closed in the early 2000s.
Thanks for this share
so interesting to hear a bit of history on what is now 'luxury row' – i stayed on that end of Waikiki in 2019 and there was only that one gay bar/club on a small side street
Ahh the reference to Hawaii in your new videos now makes sense . I had not realised you grew up there.
Great video i really enjoyed all the little tips and information about waikiki! I remember the old day's too with all the old stores and the streets and clubs were full with excitment! I haven't been back there for 5 years but hopefully one day i will return, i do like the new international market but miss the old one aswell it was one of mine and my mums favourite places, and the old nite club scruples we got so friendly with the staff they were like our second family and would let us in for free sometimes and gave a free drinks now and then because we went there most nights and the dj would always make us feel welcome and say on his microphone when we were on the dance floor, the kiwis are in the house haha yes those were the good old day's as you say! A lot has defintley changed there since my first trip in 1989 and ive been there around 13 times but everytime feels like the first because it is such an awesome place so beautiful with stunning views and gorgeous plants and flowers everywhere!!
