Thanks for the suggestion. mrstdaver was skeptical going in and when it rained the first hour, was not looking good. Then we hit the jackpot. The skies cleared, we saw some dolphins, got up to amazing Napali coast and there's a rainbow leadin into the Kalalau valley, and then we boozed all the way back with the sun setting behind us and Van Morrison's "Into the Mystic" playing. Definitely one of the highlights of the trip.

I can't imagine going to Hawaii if I could afford to go to the Ozarks. Seems dumb.

Puka dogs are delicious in an almost puni sort of wayShaved ice is stupid and grossGreat cheap poke: sleeping giant grill in wailuaGreat coffee everywhere Beaches everywhere range from medium to excellent based on these factors:-How many derps are everywhere derping around?-how good are the waves for bodysurfing or whatever you plan on doing?-what is the sand to rock/coral ratio (foot comfort awareness)-what's the scenery like?Polihale is sparsely populated, really great waves, and has zero rocks/coral to damage your fragile midwestern feet. You have to drive 20 mins on a gravel road which may seem like a bad idea but I saw tlb rentals doing it. Amaze cliff views bc it's like at the start of na pali coast.Golfing at wailua is like $40, amaze course with like 6 beach holesDo either a helo tour or boat tour of na pali coast. I recommend kauai sea tours. It's like $150 for about 6 hrs of snorkeling, the amaze coast views, dinner, and all you can slam mai tais. There are other tour companies as well, I'm sure they're all goodHike at least part of one of the wailea canyon trails depending on your desire to descend/climb a bunch. But there's goats and stuff everywhere which is pretty hilarious, and some great views of the canyon periodicallyOur group went to costco for breakfast food and beach snacks, ate out for occasional dinner or whatever. Sampler packs of HI beers for days. Just go explore and see stuff.
Ke'e beach is closed due to the mudslides in april. You cant go west of hanalei bay rn iirc
great info, tdaver. that sail boat dinner looks amaze, may just have to add it on even though budget is already tight.
