Beaches and Hikes
Lumaha'i
Beach
One of our fav summer beach spots (the waves here are crazy dangerous in the winter so we only get to go during the summer months). Lil 7 minute hike down to a beautiful crystal clear lagoon with a spot to jump off the rock if you feelin' adventurous.
Moloa'a Bay
Beach
Despite looking like it would be crowded from the parking lot once you get out to the beach you have most of it to yourself. You can go to the right or the left and we always switch it up.
Ke'e
Beach
One of the most exclusive beaches on Kauai! Its allllllll the way north so plan on it taking up most of your day! YOU NEED A RESERVATION TO GET TO THIS BEACH!!! You get them on the state park website and they are only available within 30 days. They sell out very quickly so plan this in advance! Don't be the sucker that gets turned back cause they didn't get one. While you're up there consider taking a hike up to Hanakāpī’ai Beach and Waterfall!
Hanakapi'ai
Hike
With spectacular views of the Na Pali coast throughout and a killer waterfall to reward you with a dip at the end this hike is a winner all around. 2 miles to the beach and another 2 miles to the falls giving you an 8 mile hike in total. This hike starts at Ke'e beach so YOU NEED A RESERVATION.
Larsens
Beach
A great beach for long walks and shell hunting. Mostly coral reef so not the best spot for swimming but sure is she a beaut.
Alaka'i Swamp trail
Hike
One of our favorite hikes in Koke'e! There is a 50/50 change you'll see the view at the end due to the fog, but I'd say this hike is worth it non the less. It's home to one of the highest swamps in the world!
Sleeping Giant
Hike
A sweet lil hike to do in the morning or evening, this hike is bang for your buck. A short 45 minutes up and you get to be on top of a mountain viewing Kapa'a down bellow.
Salt Pond
Beach
A new favorite on the west side of the island this beach gets HOT. One of our favorite things to do is get breakfast at Midnight Bear Bakery in Hanapepe and then head on over for a lovely beach day at Salt Pond.
