Queen's Surf - Waikiki, HI - Vintage Tiki Bar - Unisex T-Shirt

The Queen's Surf was a legendary tiki bar and entertainment venue located on the Diamond Head end of Waikiki Beach in Honolulu, Hawaii. Originally built in 1916 as a private residence, it was transformed post-World War II into a vibrant restaurant and nightclub. The venue featured the renowned Barefoot Bar, where local entertainer Sterling Mossman, known as the "Hula Cop," performed nightly, blending music and comedy. The Queen's Surf also hosted luaus and showcased talents like singer-songwriter Kui Lee, contributing to its status as a cultural hotspot. Despite its popularity, the establishment was closed in 1969 due to a lease dispute and subsequently demolished in 1971. Today, the site is part of a public beach park, but the memories of its vibrant atmosphere endure. This design is part of our vintage retro collection, celebrating the defunct golden era tiki bars of yesteryear. Printed on our super soft ring-spun & combed cotton unisex T-Shirt. Or upgrade to our Luxury vintage heather colors (cotton/poly blend) for an even softer, more durable, classic look. Which colors are luxury? Any color with the word "heather" in its name. We print & ship all of our high quality graphic tees in the USA.
