Bikini.com may be the world’s biggest beach party – but we think we may be spotting some even bigger beach party animals during the upcoming weekend of June 10-13 at The Hukilau in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. What’s the Hukilau? Well in old Hawaiian days, it was a traditional Hawaiian fishing festival, where a giant net was cast into the sea that the villagers pulled back to shore. It emphasized the spirit of family and community. This groovy modern day Hukilau is a net thrown out to the entire world, bringing lovers of “Mid-Century Polynesian Pop” and “Tiki” culture from all over the world together for a very special swinging weekend celebration. It's Tiki Geek Chic!

Organized by Tiki Kiliki (aka Christie White, but it’s so much cooler calling her Tiki), past events have been weekends full of entertainment and laughs. The crowd is full of beautiful girls in vintage Hawaiian outfits and guys in cool Hawaiian shirts and hats. (We’re not sure if they look like that all the time, but it sure is fun for a weekend.) Event highlights will include the surf sounds of the Bikini Beachcombers and Lady Poi, a signing session with very cool artist Shag , a presentation from Mai-Tai cocktail expert Jeff "Beachbum" Berry, a tiki art show, a performance by Marina the Fire Eating Mermaid, the annual pilgrimage to the world-famous Mai-Kai , and one of our favorite surf party groups, The Intoxicators. If you can make it to Fort Lauderdale, you should not miss the Hukilau 2010-- we will be there with our flaming drinks and hula skirts on. For more information, check out The Hukilau.

Here are some pictures from last year's Hukilau party at Mai-Kai which was a blast!
