Frequently Asked Questions

At the Nawiliwili pier on the island's east coast, at the head of a bay sheltered by a breakwater. Ships come alongside, so no tendering is needed and you step straight onto the dock.
Yes. Following the bay for less than a kilometre brings you to Kalapaki Beach, a crescent of sand popular with families for its calm water and with beginners for its gentle surf, ideal for a first lesson.
Two clear options. Stay near the pier: Kalapaki Beach, the nearby shopping centres and Lihue ten minutes away by taxi. Or take an excursion to Waimea Canyon, the island's headline attraction, allowing an hour of driving each way.
About three kilometres, roughly ten minutes by taxi or shuttle. Lihue is an unpretentious town born of the sugar industry; its Kauai Museum traces the island's story from the first Polynesians through the plantation era.
The Grand Canyon of the Pacific, as it is nicknamed: kilometres of red and green gorges streaked with waterfalls on the island's west side. Roadside lookouts give spectacular views without demanding any serious hiking. Allow an hour's drive from the pier.
Because Mount Waialeale at the island's centre receives some of the highest rainfall on the planet, and its water runs down into every valley. Kauai is also the oldest of the main Hawaiian islands: erosion has had millions of years to carve its fluted ridges.
Yes, a little north of the pier. Flat-bottomed boats run up the river to the Fern Grotto, a cave hung with ferns, past banks of mango and bamboo. The valley was once the seat of the island's chiefs and several sacred sites still line the river.
The US dollar, and cards work everywhere: port shops, restaurants and excursions. Some cash remains handy for tips and roadside stands.
April through October brings the driest weather. Winter means more rain on the east coast and heavier north swell, but Kauai stays green and workable year-round: rain is part of the scenery.
Very much so. Kalapaki Beach, with its calm water and beginner surf, is within walking distance of the pier, and the Wailua River trip is effortless. Waimea Canyon, on the other hand, means a lot of driving for young children.
