Scenes from the 1961 American musical romantic comedy film, Blue Hawaii, starring Elvis Presley, Joan Blackman, Angela Lansbury, Nancy Walters, Howard McNear and Jenny Maxwell.

The film was directed by Norman Taurog from a screenplay by Hal Kanter. It was produced by Hal Wallis Productions and distributed by Paramount Pictures. Much of the film was shot on location at the Coco Palms Resort on the east coast of Kauai.

Chadwick "Chad" Gates (Elvis Presley) having been released from the Army, is eager to return to Hawaii with his surfboard, his beach friends, and his girlfriend Maile Duval (Joan Blackman). His mother, Sarah Lee (Angela Lansbury), wants him to follow in his father's footsteps and take over management at the Great Southern Hawaiian Fruit Company, the family business, but Chad is reluctant and goes to work as a tour guide at his girlfriend's agency. The first clients Chad has are an attractive school teacher (Abigail Prentice) and four teenage girls in her charge. One of the students, 17-year-old Ellie Corbett (Jenny Maxwell), seems self-centered and doesn't get along with the other three, but she becomes smitten with Chad. Ellie's flirtatious ways with another tourist causes a wild fight to erupt in a restaurant.
