Wow! This brings amazing memories. Me and my wife went to Waikiki for our honeymoon 7 years ago. We stayed at the Aston Waikiki Circle which we were able to see a few times in this video.
I have stayed at circle.old but refurbished.what a view!!watched old tv show " I dream of Jeannie" in Waikiki. Circle hotel was in background.few hotels around it.very historic hotel!
This is just what I needed. Sun and beautiful water. It's raining in Cincinnati Ohio, and I leave tomorrow 3 Jun for Waikiki. Staying at the HHV. Cheers
On my travel list since 5yrs ago, didn't get the chance to, then I got sick, then the lockdown. Can't wait to return to normalcy. Tks for sharing. Feels like I'm right there. 💖 from 🇨🇦.
Back in the day at this time of year you couldn't get a spot on Waikiki Beach. It was packed. And loud. Ghetto Blasters everywhere! Off to Dukes for Happy Hour then over to Moose McGillycuddys after a nap and shower. Jeans, boots and a nice shirt. Girls EVERYWHERE! Such great memories of the '80's. By far and away the best decade ever...
It looked scruffy before almost like it had rust, I always noticed when I saw the videos. I love white sand beaches; it looks so much more inviting. They need to be on top of it so it doesn't get that way again, maintenance, like in Florida, they have those beautiful white sand beaches.
Lived there 50 years ago (1971) at 1471 St Louis Dr; that was Hilo Hatties' home and was still owned by her. It was for sale for $35,000; believe or not. Loved Oahu, even as a soldier stationed at Camp HM Smith and never forgot the experience. Went to the Crater Fest that year. Four vacations there, the last was 2005. I consider much of what I knew is now gone. I won't be going back but still love the ocean, mountains and the endless warmth. "Where the sea egg flames on the coral, and the long backed breakers croon - - Their endless ocean legends to the lazy, locked lagoon"....Kipling
I went to this beach in.....1974 !!!! I stayed at the large hotel at the end...the SHERATON....the royal hawaiian is next door....none of those other hotels were there !! It was all beach and the diamondhead was fully visible...nothing near it...and nothing leading up to it...it was a very plain, empty, beautiful beach with very few hotels...up the road was the Rainbow Tower...and that's about it !! Aloha !! p.s. someone tried to sell me Puka Shells on the beach and i saw the sunrise outside one morning, the beach was totally empty and i was the only one on it besides two boys sleeping in the sand, they had slept on it overnite.
We stood at the Sheraton also on our honeymoon in 1976. I remember the lobby with the shell chimes and the trade winds making that beautiful sound. Oh, and the plumeria flowers🌸. Still have a Hawaiian dress I bought, and it still fits.
@@me777s i remember the buffet breakfast, the view of diamondhead from the room, a sun and ocean mural on the wall in the room, i think i was on the 23rd floor if that's possible....i remember the large flower pattern on the furniture at the entrance of the hotel....the shoppes...the great pool...i bought a hawaiian dress at the shopping mall on ala moana blvd...i think that's the one. I bought postcards that had tiny packages of sand stapled to them....supposedly sand from the beach.
Deng, I hella miss living in Oahu. No need for warm clothes pretty much all year round. Can't wait to go back living on a tropical island, somewhere in the world.
@@walkhawaii4988 I been doing research about an island in the Philippines called Siargao. But I also still want to live in the U.S. to be close to family. So I was thinking of Kona side on the big island. Hard choices ya'? Lol!
Waikiki Beach became famous for its surf, the man who invented modern surfing, and his friends who would come surfing with him. Waikiki is a surfing hotspot now.
The entire beach is still not open, I just got back from Waikiki last night. A good portion is still closed up and the workers were working on it yesterday morning.
There are no structures built in the water between the Royal Hawaiian Hotel and the duke kahanamoku statue where the video ends. I assume you must have stayed further down nearby Kuhio beach where there are a bunch of structures built in the water. The surf spot “Wall’s” is at the pier that goes out between Kuhio beach and Queen’s beach.
I dunno, looks like its time to add more sand to the beach. They raised the height of the beach but haven't returned the length of the beach into the ocean back to its original size.
Heartbreaking to see. We have severe erosion here on the US East Coast but I did not realize how bad it was in Hawaii as well. Sad and shocking to see.
No, we miss you guys! I hope Australia opens again so you can travel! Maybe the guys that compete in the waterman competitions don’t miss you guys. : P
@@walkhawaii4988 ive got an 8 year old that we've taken to hawaii 7 times. The past year has been painful not being able to get away. Seriously need a travel bubble with hawaii.
What happened to the sand? It looks like they dumped a bunch of dirt on the beach. Whe water looks milky from the dirt and how the waves turn up the dirt.... It used to be so clear. Sad to see.
It's because they dredged a bunch of sand from offshore to replenish the beach. It should eventually return to normal...This is the second time they have used this method to replenish the beach. Thanks for watching!
Waikiki beach was naturally a much smaller beach. A lot of sand came from Manhattan beach in CA, and they’ve twice dredged sand from offshore to replace what was lost by erosion. Thanks for watching!
It has always been that you didn’t need to wear a mask in Hawaii when out “exercising”, and the police aren’t enforcing the mask mandate. The shops however will ask you to wear a mask when entering their premises. Thanks for watching!
Job well done!looks great.royal Caribbean has 2 ships coming in from Sydney April 22 and 23,2022. Final port Hnl! No hotels,nothing is available! I'm on Royal Caribbean cruise ship April 22 2023,Syd,Tahiti,morea,pago,pago, hnl! More coming! Look out these are big ships! 5-6 thousand!!leave town!!
The beach is just wider after the completion of the sand maintenance project, but other than that, things generally look the same. Thank you for watching!
This is the second time this was done in not a lot of years. Much of the sand that you swimming is very coarse, even gravel. Used to wear swim shoes as it was so bad, Add countless homeless people, we stopped going years ago. Reasonable priced food and shopping is no longer there, except ABC stores. Be going elsewhere. Sorry to be a downer.
Exactly, sadly whole Caribbean region affected by it. It started in 2010 and slowly progressed throughout the years. It travels all way from Africa! Dumping agricultural fertilizers in ocean and climate change provoked it

Thank you for watching!
I really love Hawaii, really looking forward to visiting there real soon ❤️
Welcome, I hope you have a great vacation!
The sand has a funny color to it.
I think it has a lot of silt in it because they dredged it from offshore, it will eventually change back to its normal color. Thanks for watching!
I sure miss being in Hawaii.
You can always come back again. : ) Thanks for watching, Aloha!

I went to Waikiki in 1990. The beach wasn't so slanted it was even more of a gentle gradual drop off..
They just dumped a bunch of sand on the beach that they dredged from offshore, so that might have something to do with it. Thank you for watching!
It’s almost like I’m walking with you. This is the first trip we missed in 14 years but soon if all goes well!😎
Aww…I hope you make it back next year! : )
Kind of amazing the state built this beach for people that don't even live here.
It’s probably because tourism is just about the only industry left in Hawaii. Thank you for watching!
thank you
You're welcome, Thank you for watching! : )

Wow. The water is unbelievably cloudy. You cant see 1 foot below the water. Probably silt and will be like that for a long time.
Yes it’s a little cloudy, but the beach is nice and wide now!
That will settle
@@hankb27 thats what they said last time and it never did
I used to live on Seaside Avenue (just a few blocks from there).

Joli !
Merci d'avoir regardé!
They dont wear face mask ? the beach look so beautiful. i love the blue color
Most people don't wear the masks outdoors, but the businesses still ask you to wear the mask. I'm glad you enjoyed the vid, thanks for watching!
The sand looks great. Are the Kahuna stones still there...near the Police stn? If they are in a previous video, I missed it
Yes, the stones are still there. Thank you for watching!
21:11. Now that's a nice little nothing she's almost wearing...
The entire beach is still not open, I just got back from Waikiki last night. A good portion is still closed up and the workers were working on it yesterday morning.
Oh ok, thank you for the update, I guess it must have been all opened up for the weekend. Thank you for watching!
RHH groin is a great improvement
Kao ds sam na havajima ok video🙋♀️🇷🇸👍🌴🌊
Hvala prijatelju, drago mi je da ste uživali!
Where is the wall? When I stayed In Waikiki I walked out of my hotel & there was a wall in the water & in this video there is no wall.

Congratulations you’re the first person to recognize themselves in my video! : )
Lived in Waikiki and enjoyed it but I could never understand why more hotels don't make pools that open up to the ocean.
I think the only pool like that is the infinity pool at the Sheraton hotel. Thank you for watching!
@@walkhawaii4988 cheers
It would cost way to much money thats why. Do u have any idea how much they pay in property taxes? hundreds of thousands in taxes
What happened to the sand? It looks like they dumped a bunch of dirt on the beach. Whe water looks milky from the dirt and how the waves turn up the dirt.... It used to be so clear. Sad to see.
It's because they dredged a bunch of sand from offshore to replenish the beach. It should eventually return to normal...This is the second time they have used this method to replenish the beach. Thanks for watching!
You call that beach wide? Should check our Daytona Beach, FL!
Waikiki beach was naturally a much smaller beach. A lot of sand came from Manhattan beach in CA, and they’ve twice dredged sand from offshore to replace what was lost by erosion. Thanks for watching!
