Kauai BeachesSome of  the best in the world, Kauai’s Beaches are many and varied. In general, the North Shore beaches are calmest in the summer months (April – September) and the South Shore are calmest during the winter months (October- May). Remember, in Hawaii, all beaches are public beaches, so you can go on any beach you like providing you can get access to it!

Take the time to explore Kauai’s many beaches, some you can drive up to, others are a short hike into. They are all spectacular and have their own characteristics. Have fun and enjoy the beauty that surrounds you at every turn!

Kauai’s Farmers Markets

Local farmers market in Hanalei Kauai

While here in our vacation rental on the Hawaiian Islands, make it a point to visit one of the many local farmers markets. Organic farming is a huge industry on Kauai, growing staples like tomatoes and lettuce to exotic tropical fruits and vegetables. The markets are very popular for local residents, restaurant owners and tourists. Each day of the week you will find a market on some part of the island, each with its own character and specialties.

Aside from produce, some of the markets also offer fresh flowers, fish, handmade crafts and gifts. Some of the markets are run by the county others are privately run by farmer’s associations. Every market offers a fresh taste of the islands, and a great chance to interact with kama’aina (residents) and the local farmers who contribute to Hawaiian sustainable agriculture.
