Waikiki Beach extends for around 2 miles long, and the Waikiki Beachside Bistro is at one end of Kuhio Beach.
So on one side of the Waikiki Beachside Bistro is Kuhio Beach, and on the other side is the beachfront resort of Moana Surfrider. (There is also the Moana Surfrider Beach Bar which is at a Waikiki banyan tree.)
While all beaches in Waikiki are public, some are more publicly accessible than others. Kuhio Beach is one of the most publicly accessible beaches in Waikiki!
Basically all of Kuhio Beach is along Waikiki’s main road of Kalakaua Avenue.
And you can also get to the Waikiki Beachside Bistro by walking Kalakaua Avenue.
