Gidget Goes Hawaiian (1961 (1961 in film)) is a Columbia Pictures feature film starring Deborah Walley and James Darren in a sequel to the 1959 (1959 in film) Sandra Dee "beach movie" vehicle Gidget (Gidget (film)). The sequel expands the archetypal high school teen surfer girls romance with her college sweetheart Moondoggie. The film is the second of three Gidget films directed by Paul Wendkos. The screenplay was written by Ruth Brooks Flippen based on characters created by Frederick Kohner. Actor James Darren reprised his 1959 role of "Moondoggie", and another veteran of the 1959 film, Joby Baker, makes an appearance. Gidget Goes to Rome follows the film sequentially. Gidget Goes Hawaiian has been released to VHS and DVD.
