カウアイのおすすめツーリングルート

Always brilliant, beach running without shoes :-)

Haena Beach is a park with lots of amenities where visitors can see tropical jungles join white sand beaches. Mount Makana (Bali Hai) is in the background and makes for great photography opportunities, especially around sunset and sunrise. When the water is calm, there is good swimming and shell-searching. It is very important for visitors to leave any shells they find on the beach. Surfing gets big in the winter, so visitors might do better watching the pro surfers rather than heading into the water themselves. There is a lifeguard station, restrooms, showers, and (permitted) campsites.

Limahuli Garden & Preserve is run by the non-profit National Tropical Botanical Garden. Visitors pay to enter this 17-acre botanical garden on a 985-acre nature preserve. Ticket Prices: The tour fee includes admission into our Visitor Center Garden. Adults: $65 Children (ages 2–12): $32.50 Kamaʻāina (residents of the state of Hawai'i): $52

Waipouli Beach is a more low-key park by the Waipouli Beach Resort. There is public beach access on the south end, and it's a hangout spot for Kauai’s monk seals, right off the biking coastal path. This area is family-friendly, with shopping, coffee shops, activities, and hiking very close by. It has been marked as a wonderful spot to see the sunrise.

Kapa'a Beach is a long beach with golden sands that parallels the Kapa'a Bike Path. The full name is Ke Ala Hele Makalae, meaning “path that goes by the coast." Most people simply call it the Kapa‘a Bike Path or Kaua‘i Bike Trail. This bike path is a multi-use path that totals about 7 miles.

Donkey Beach is a secluded beach in the northeast of Kauai. The beach was a very popular nudist beach, but isn't anymore as the current owners decided against it. As the water is pretty rough here, it's not the perfect beach for swimming and snorkeling, but still a very nice spot for sunbathers and to take a little break after a long day

Puʻu Ka Pele lookout is a small pullout 13 miles northbound on Highway 550. Visitors can enjoy a different vantage point in Waimea Canyon, which peers into a narrow gorge. This viewpoint is also the closest view of Waipoʻo Falls from the highway. Waipoʻo Falls are still far away but visible with no fog or clouds. If the rider has the opportunity to pack a small pair of binoculars on this ride, they will reap the benefits from many viewpoints, including this one.

Shipwreck’s Beach is a long stretch of golden sandy beachfront on the eastern side of Poipu. There are resorts and a large and grassy county park facility around Shipwreck Beach, and on the east side, there are some hiking trails around the cliffs. For most of the year, advanced surfers should paddle out to a short shore break. As long as visitors are safe around the shore break and keep their distance, they can walk, sunbathe, and enjoy this beach.
