About Hawaiian Tropic

Hawaiian Tropic was founded in Daytona Beach in 1969 and built its identity on coconut fragrance and tanning rather than protection, a positioning it has had to modify as sun safety advice changed. Edgewell holds it alongside Banana Boat. The brand now sells higher protection factors while keeping the scent that defined it.
