How Waikiki Beach Walk Helps You Make a Splash at the Beach

It was a vintage Saturday Night Live character whose trademark was the comical motto, “It’s better to look good than to feel good.”
 
While this was considered a joke at the time, we all know that it wasn’t too far off track, because when you look good, you feel good. 
 
And Waikiki Beach Walk makes sure of that, with some of the most exclusive and original beach and resort wear in Waikiki.


 

Good Day Sunshine

Sunshine Swimwear may have everything you may need for a day of fun at the beach ...like hats, sandals and accessories... but there’s a reason “swimwear” is in their name. 
 
And it’s because they carry over 48 brands of swimwear that include many popular local labels, with a wide variety of tropical prints that can only be found here in Hawaii. It’s one of the best selections of swimwear in Waikiki, for women, men ...and kids.
 
Fun, fashionable, and affordable, with petite sizes, plus sizes, even triple XL sizes for the guys, Sunshine Swimwear’s friendly staff can help you outfit the entire family in the latest styles (or just the style you want) for the ultimate day at the beach!
 

Tales from the South

EIMEO clothing is a women-powered Polynesian slow fashion and sustainable lifestyle brand inspired by the treasured childhood memories of the company’s founder who was born and raised there, and whose abiding fascination of the myths and legends of Tahiti provides the inspiration for EIMEO’s unique designs.
 
The result are evocative tropical fashions that presents a celebration of the quintessential Polynesian spirit and way of life of the lost golden age of Tahiti. All crafted in a sustainable and conscious way, using organic and recycled materials as much as possible
 
This is not only reflected in their distinctive line of swimwear, but also their charming beach accessories, like the striking and practical pareo, the traditional South Pacific wraparound skirt, of which the Tahitian versions are known to be the most colorful and inventive.
 
Because looking good at the beach is more than just rocking a hot swimsuit.
 

Something for Everyone

Blue Ginger has been selling exclusively designed resort wear in Hawaii for over 30 years. The beauty of the tropics ...exotic flowers, the Pacific Ocean, and everyday wonders of the Hawaiian Islands...  provide the endless inspiration for their original designs. With Batik prints and bold blue hue of the ginger flower as their signature.
 
These beautiful Batik fabrics are made into many styles of clothing, from sundresses to flowing caftans, playsets for children, and mens' and boys' aloha shirts. All crafted with an emphasis on style and comfort.
 
So all members of the family can enjoy relaxing, easy-wear attire for the beach ...and beyond.
 

Always In good taste

Serious beach goers know that it takes some effort to do it right. We all know that rewards encourages hard work, so why not make that reward a delicious treat from Honolulu Cookie Company?
 
Part of Honolulu Cookie Company’s renowned creative packaged tin collections, the Moore Aloha Surfboard Tin is not a typo. It represents the partnership with Carissa Moore, Hawaii’s first ever Olympic Gold Medalist and 5-time World Surfing Champion, who founded the Moore Aloha Charitable Foundation in 2018 to help create a way for young women to transform their daydreams into tangible goals. They do this through self-empowering educational workshops, sport mentorships and global exchange programs.
 
That’s a lot to chew on. And why the Honolulu Cookie Company is proud to support it, and why the short bread cookies inside the tin are so darn delicious.
 
Finally, always remember to accessorize

It’s been said, “Swim suits come and go, but jewelry is forever.”
 
We actually don’t know anyone who ever said that, but we’ll take credit for it because it’s true.  And if you want something that compliments your beach wear, Na Hoku -Hawaii’s finest jeweler since 1924- has several delightfully fun collections that are not only inspired by the sea, but its inhabitants as well.
 
Turtles, crabs, manta rays, shells, and even the occasional lost flip flop, Na Hoku has ocean-inspired jewelry designs that blend elegance with whimsical charm of island life.
 
Each piece is crafted in 14K gold and precious stones to reflect the beauty of Hawaii, evoking memories of strolling on sun-kissed shores and feeling the soft sand between your toes.
 
At least on one of your feet.
