Waikīkī is Honolulu's front porch, with surfboards, shave ice and a long beach that everyone shares. Spend the afternoon at Kapiʻolani Park and Queen's Surf Beach, where the queer crowd has always spread out its towels. Stay on the sand for sunset over the water. Then walk up to Hula's Bar & Lei Stand, the open-air gay bar with a view of the ocean and Diamond Head.
In October, Pride parades down Kalākaua Avenue and the party ends at Hula's. Any other weekend, a hike up Diamond Head before breakfast is the whole plan.
