If you're at Walls or Queens Beach, yes. But sometimes you'll be in the water there and realize that the water is murky/cloudy because of the suntan lotion coming off of the numerous tourist bodies. Makes ya wanna gag.

you won't have to worry about being sunburned, there's always a silver lining.

And if you're in that area you can easily walk over to Ala Moana Beach and get a more (though not entirely) local feel.

My two junior moonies did enjoy surfing at Waikiki. The waves there are perfect for beginners.

I gave it the "icky" descriptive primarily due to the crowds. We stayed at the Hilton Hawaiian village because my wife had meetings there and her work paid for the room. Even being free, the place was still a rip off. $5 for a stale bagel, $1 extra for a little pack of cream cheese, lines for everything, $15 for a beach chair, indifferent staff, etc... We went off property at every opportunity.
