* The Waikiki Outrigger on the Beach
Hotel is located at the diamond head side of Waikiki, very close
to the Moana Surfrider. It is one of the last buildings on the
makai (ocean) side of Kalakaua Avenue. For Directions click
the hotel’s website.
Parking in Waikiki is always tricky, but the Honolulu Zoo or
Kalakaua Avenue along Queen’s
beach provides metered parking on the mauka side, but the fee
just went up quite a bit. The makai (ocean) side of Kalakau Ave,
still has free parking. Please remember that along Kalakaua Avenue
and the Zoo meters need to be fed on Sunday too (frequent meter
checks have been spotted lately). Waikiki side streets still have
free parking on Sundays, if you find a spot.
