Many visitors to the island enjoy learning about the culture and local history. If you enjoy delving into the past, all you need to do is visit the Kauai Museum, Hikina Akala Heiau, or the Grove Farm Homestead. From plantations to artifacts and the artistry of the Menehune people you’ll experience at the Menehune Fishpond, the island is rich in historical artifacts and exhibits of past eras.
Whether walking, hiking, driving or kayaking, you won’t want to miss Wailua Falls, the Huleia National Wildlife Refuge and the Fern Grotto. This is experiencing nature at its best!
Of course you’ll want to know where all the best beaches are – after all, what’s a vacation to Kauai without the beach? You’ll love the white sand at Kalapaki Beach or watching ships pass through the Nawiliwili Harbor on Ninini Beach. Hanamaulu Beach Park and Niumalu Beach Park are where you’ll enjoy a relaxed time swimming or picnicking with the family, both with amenities including restrooms, showers and picnic tables.
Can’t go a day without golf? We know there are lots of people who are passionate about this fun (and sometimes challenging) sport. Head to the Jack Nicklaus designed Kauai Lagoons Golf Club for an afternoon and enjoy the scenery along with a round with family or friends.
When it comes time to eat, enjoy Chinese, Filipino, Korean, Japanese, even some of the fast food brands you already know. In the evenings you can enjoy fire and hula dancing at some of the restaurants and bars in the area, along with live Hawaiian music and breathtaking ocean views. Of course you’ll want to browse the local shops for handcrafted jewelry, art, coffee, clothing and souvenirs!
