Surfer on a Wave statue in Waikiki Hawaii near Queens Beach

ALOHA!

The Surfer on a Wave is a bronze statue that represents a big part of Hawaii culture, located in Waikiki at Queens Beach. It literally shows a surfer catching a wave! It’s a quick stop you can make along the sidewalk of the main road of Kalakaua Avenue, heading towards Kapiolani Park. It feels like a classic Hawaii landmark.

Below I have a short walking route you can do near Queens Beach that starts at the surfer on a wave statue!
