Go to Hawaii. Now.

No matter how they re-develop the remaining vintage experiences in Honolulu, they can never take away the breathtaking beauty of Waikiki Beach. Sure, it's touristy. But the sand, the water, the view of Diamond Head... These are things which developers can never take away. It is worth seeing at least once. And when you're there, keep in mind that you're never more than a brief stroll from a cocktail, or a unique dining experience. Also, there are some unique world-class mixologists employed at Waikiki Beach waterfront venues, although few, if any, offer classic tiki cocktails or any sort of tiki experience. But there is much to see and discover and you would be well-rewarded by making at least a stop there to take it all in.

Sign the petition and don't hold your breath. But go to Hawaii as soon as you can.

And if you go now you may also discover that tourism is down and hotel prices are surprisingly more affordable than in the past. This is especially true if you shop hotels which are a block in from the waterfront.

Cheers!
