Waikīkī (/waɪkiːˈkiː/; Hawaiian: [vɐjˈtiːˈtiː, wɐjˈtiːˈtiː]) is a beachfront neighborhood of Honolulu, on the south shore of the island of Oʻahu, in Hawaii, United States. Waikiki is best known for Waikīkī Beach, the white sand beach shoreline fronting the neighborhood.
Waikīkī is home to public places including Kapiʻolani Park, Fort DeRussy, 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 area was a retreat for Hawaiian royalty in the 1800s who enjoyed surfing there on early forms of longboards.
A few small hotels opened in the 1880s. In 1893, Greek-American George Lycurgus leased the guest house of Allen Herbert and renamed it the "Sans Souci" (French for "without worries") creating one of the first beach resorts. Later that year Robert Louis Stevenson stayed at the resort; subsequently it became a popular destination for tourists from the mainland. The area at coordinates 21°15′49″N 157°49′17″W / 21.26361°N 157.82139°W / 21.26361; -157.82139 is still called "Sans Souci Beach".

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?
