Waikīkī ( /waɪkiːˈkiː/; Hawaiian: [vɐiˈkiːˈkiː] or [wɐiˈkiːˈkiː]) is a neighborhood of Honolulu, in the City and County of Honolulu, on the south shore of the island of Oʻahu, in Hawaii, United States. Waikīkī Beach is the shoreline fronting Waikīkī.
Waikīkī is home to public places including Kapiʻolani Park, Fort de Russy Military Reservation, Kahanamoku Lagoon, Kūhiō Beach Park, and Ala Wai Harbor.
The name Waikīkī means spouting fresh water in the Hawaiian language, for springs and streams that fed wetlands that once separated Waikīkī from the interior.
The neighborhood extends from the Ala Wai Canal (a channel dug to drain former wetlands) on the west and north, to Diamond Head (Lēʻahi) on the east. Waikīkī Beach is noted for its views of the Diamond Head tuff cone, its usually warm and cloud-free climate and its surf break.
The Waikīkī skyline is now dotted with an abundance of both high-rises and resort hotels. The beach is actually fairly short, with half of it marked off for surfers. For some distance into the ocean the water is quite shallow, although there are numerous rocks on the bottom. As with most ocean beaches the waves can have some force, particularly on windy days. The surf at Waikīkī is known for its long rolling break, making it ideal for long boarding, tandem surfing and beginners.

prints in the sand
By the sea the cool breeze, the palm trees,
a coconut drink, some music and ice-cream
The waters clear blue the sky is too and so are her eyes
that I gaze into
Now could we be a part of a postcard?
I'd send it to every single soul that I ever knew
So hey come around to where the sun always shines down
the coast of Waikiki
Gather people round
Leave your worries behind when you come to Waikiki
Aloha Hawaii I've been shipwrecked on this island for
quite some time
Fine by me I love your hospitality
No raft be made and eventually sent to sea
Her and I we lay down by the beach under the sky
I hear her breathing next to me
Now could we be a postcard too?
