50 First Dates and the windward coast
STOP 1 OF 8
Queen’s Beach and Sans Souci, Kapiʻolani Park
Waikīkī & Diamond Head · Free to visit
The beach at the Diamond Head end of Waikīkī. The Elks Lodge next door stood in for the Outrigger Canoe Club in The Descendants, and the water offshore is where the film opens and, near the end, comes back to.

Moliʻi Fishpond
The Hukilau Café stood in a clearing beside this 800-year-old fishpond. It was a set: the outside was built here, the inside in Los Angeles, and it was taken down after filming. Today there’s just the shoreline and the pond.
