I'm going to be in that area the weekend of the 12th through the 14th. I'm mostly down there to visit Channel Islands National Park, but I figured: hey, there's probably SOME tiki bar around there that's worth checking out, right? So far I haven't seen much clear evidence of that from online research, though -- the only thing I've turned up is the Aloha Lounge in Ventura, which doesn't seem to have generated a lot of enthusiasm in these parts. Any suggestions? I'm willing to drive outside that area, but probably not too far outside that area -- although if you think something's really worth going two hours of the way to see, do let me know. :)

FWIW, I'm driving down from San Jose. My impression is that there's not a lot between here and there. (And, yes, I've been up to Forbidden Island in Alameda a few times!)
