Naughty Guide To Honolulu Naughty Travels Naughty Guide To Honolulu It's the state capital and largest city of Hawaii and usually conjures up images of white sand beaches, cocktails and romantic hula dances at sunset. But there's a much naughtier side to Honolulu that you won't necessarily see on the picture postcards. The sex industry here is colorful yet enigmatic. Like most cities, there's a red light district, around Kuhio Avenue or further downtown around Pali Highway and Kukui Street.
You'll see a lot of prostitutes around here, especially Southeast Asian. Prostitution isn't legal and there are lots of hidden cameras surveilling the streets but this is mainly to deter other crime.
Attitudes towards sex and sex work among the locals is a little like it is in Amsterdam and, of course, it brings a lot of money and tourism to the islands. Off-street sex can be found in massage parlors, strip clubs and certain nightclubs. Unlike many cities, the sex industry in Honolulu is found right in the heart of the action, instead of pushed to the edges, so it's not uncommon for tourists and sex-seekers to mingle on the same streets.
If you're after someone especially high-class, then be prepared to pay - there are some stunning escorts and other sex workers in Honolulu, but you really do get what you pay for, and the best is going to cost you.
You might struggle to find an actual Hawaiian prostitute or masseuse but you'll definitely get something exotic, including transgender and transsexuals - Hawaii has one of the highest populations of LGBT sex workers in the US. Look out for '24 Hour Spas,' too, as these often offer much more than a back rub and hot tub.
