I've made that exact walk several times including twice on our last trip to Oahu this past March. The walkway in front of the Sheraton Waikiki has been sealed off for a while. The sand has eroded under the concrete steps making it a hazard. Until they decide to refill the sand it will remain closed. Those concrete tables just outside the tennis courts near the Hale Koa had a lot of homeless people the last time that I was there. I completely agree about Steak Shack. Very good food and good portions as well. It can get very crowded but the service is pretty fast. We also tried the smoothie place right next to it. I don't remember the name of the place but it was good although a little overpriced. We stayed at the Sheraton Waikiki (mainly because of your walk through of the property) and one morning I rented one of those red umbrellas with 2 lounge chairs in front of the Royal Hawaiian. It was $100 for the entire day (8 am-4 pm). It was well worth it. My three favorite places covered on your walk are: 1. The infinity pool at the Sheraton Waikiki 2. Duke's for breakfast 3. The Banyan Tree Bar at the Moana Surfrider. Thank you for another great, informative video!!

Waikiki was beautiful in July. We stayed a couple of days at Outrigger Beach Club 11th floor ocean front few. The view was magical. It started are trip off to a perfect start. We then went to Marriott in Ko Olina perfect for kids private lagoon, 5 hot tubs, 3 pools. Then we went to Disney KoOlina for a few days. 2 days was the max I could stay here but was fun for 4 year old. The resturant food was also good.

I haven't been to Hawaii since 1984. I remember that I stayed at a hotel named the Waikiki Towers there on Waikiki Beach. I'm not sure but I thought that I remember the Outrigger Reef Hotel being next to it. In your video you mentioned the Waikiki Shore Motel and said that the Outrigger Reef was beside it. Do you know what became of the Waikiki Towers Motel after all these years I haven't found much about it online. Has it been demolished and rebuilt under another name like the Waikiki Shore or something else? I remember there being some nightclubs right across the street from it but forgot what street it was on. I also went to the Paradise Cove Luau is that still in existence? The Sunset from Paradise Cove was amazing!! Your video is awesome and brought back some nostalgic memories for me as that was my first ever trip on my own to celebrate my 21st Birthday. Thank you for that and if you know the answers to any of my questions or can point me in the right direction I would much appreciate that! Thank you, John. 😀

I figured that'd be a pretty boring video to only show that & focused more on the beach/sand (narrow or wide, amenities like beach chairs/umbrellas, etc).

P.S. The seaweed was so bad they used bulldozers to clear the beaches every single day. Apparently every summer a massive bed of kelp releases from Africa, and makes its way to the Caribbean.
