Suggested stops:

Harpoon Harry's in Huntington Beach... just blocks from Sam's Seafood... if you've never been there, its a real treat! old nautical themed restaurant/bar thats decorated like an old sunken ship, really cool and popular place! Not overly familiar with the bar menu, but highly recommended for atmosphere alone!

There's another cool restaurant directly across the street from Sam's.... for some reason, can't recall the name, but has been adorned with Tikis and shipwreck at it entrance for quite a while.

Not exactly Tiki or Polynesian, but over-the-top kitsch none-the-less: Li's Chinese Restaurant in Huntington Beach. Its a really, really gawdy 60s chinese restaurant with a cocktail lounge that features a tropical drink menu, including scorpions served in giant clam shells. Its off Magnolia/Adams, and would be an easy stop between Sam's and Royal Hawaiian.....

There's a great place for those post-crawl munchies: Harbor House Cafe back in Huntington Beach.... place is very popular, huge menu, open 24 hrs, been there since the 30s, and really cool decor (old movie posters, signs, and those old punch card games from 30s & 40s are everywhere). This place is also just blocks from Sam's on PCH (assuming thats about the area where we'd park for the crawl)

just a suggestion, due to OC's lack of Tiki Temples......
