Nightlife in Waikiki and Honolulu

When the sun goes down, the nightlife in Waikiki sizzles on Kalakaua and Kuhio Avenues. The strip is lined with an array of restaurants, bars and pubs, dance clubs, nightclubs and beach hangouts—from the hottest DJ music to trendy martini lounges and wine bars.

Tourists as well as locals flock to this perennially popular beachfront Waikiki bar & restaurant after sunset. Duke’s is a spot for friends to gather and listen to live Hawaiian music. Belly up to the bar and try a Mai Tai, Lava Flow, or the latest specialty drink concoction. Like all of Honolulu, the dress code is laid-back and casual.

Honolulu’s Chinatown, located downtown, boasts a revived, hip scene after dark. Be prepared to bar hop from one venue to the next, with a wide range of choices including wine bars, jazz clubs, and DJs spinning in the house. Bar 35, The Manifest, and Next Door are a few of the coolest spots to hang out.
