This & That, May Edition

Hi friend,

Happy Aloha Friday! We made it through May. Now the summer fun (chaos?) begins. We’ve rounded up some happenings and updates from across the islands below. Next week, we’ll be highlighting some goods and brands for the dads.

Until then, cheers!
The Edit Hawaii team

• The world’s first all-female surfboard brand XO COCO celebrated its one-year anniversary. You can check out the full collection, design your own board with an all-female dream team, and sign up for filming sessions with Giulia Avila now through June 2 at The Center Of Radical Education at the old Waialua Sugar Mill.

• Surf Camp’s spring 2025 collection is perfect for Father’s Day (but also for us, ladies).

• We loved learning about the inspiration behind ceramicist Tamiko Claire via FLUX.

• If you’re a sucker for the charm of historic homes like us, check out this HONOLULU Magazine feature that gives a peek into some beloved neighborhoods and architectural gems.

• According to HAWAII Magazine, these are the hottest new restaurants across the islands.

• Speaking of restaurants, Nobu Grand Wailea Maui recently opened, the first one on Maui. Such a stunning spot for a special occasion.

• And if you’re into tequila, check out the Tequila Dinner happening at 100 Sails in Waikiki (and last week’s newsletter featuring a li hing pineapple margarita recipe).
