Kalalau Lookout
KNOW BEFORE YOU GO
Waimea Canyon and Koke’e State Park is known as the Grand Canyon of the Pacific and has some of the most photographed vistas on the island. Most of the trip through Koke’e is a driving tour, unless you’re planning to hike within the park. Bring your camera and snacks and enjoy this truly magical place. Koke’e Lodge will take you back in time with snacks, gifts and if you’re lucky you might find yourself there in time to catch a live rendition of Waimanolo Blues on ukulele. On your way back, a side trip through Hanapepe Town is always a good idea. Don’t miss Talk Story, Japanese Grandma’s and the famous Swinging Bridge.

Hanalei Food Trucks
KNOW BEFORE YOU GO
If you're looking for the freshest, local cuisine on the island, here's a tip, you won't typically find it in fancy restuarants here. Food trucks are a staple of island culture - even Kauai's food scene is for the adventurous! Each town has its own collection of unique options for every palette. From burgers to Musubi and everything in between, be sure to get out and taste all the flavors of the island. Everyone can pick their favorite and sit under the umbrellas together.
Our favorite food truck in Hanalei is Fresh Bite (we love the Jurassic Fries and the Hawaiian Punch).
