Fellow blogger Mary Jo over at Fly Away Cafe, recently posted about checking out Hilton’s Hawaiian Village to grab a drink at their famous Shell Bar. The bar, featured in the “Hawaiian Eye” television series that ran from 1959- 1963, was a favorite hangout of the main characters.

The crime fighting detectives from Honolulu used to hang out at the bar once an episode since they had an office there and were house detectives at the Hawaiian Village Hotel. Most of the show was filmed in Los Angeles, but the Shell Bar was the basis for their fictional hangout. If you were a fan of the show, this is a must-see stop on your trip!
