　　You don't want to swim here (the surf is often too rough), but the water is pretty and there are some good tide pools nearby. Access is by a very steep trail (with no handrails) from the edge of Ocean Course at Hōkūala. Follow signs that say shoreline access. There are no facilities at this compact beach.

　　The island’s largest museum is set in two buildings – one of which was built with lava rock in 1960. Come here for a quick grounding in Kauaʻi’s history and ecology, and in Hawaiian history and culture in general. A smattering of Asian art is also on display. Packed with...

　　Accessible from the grounds of the Ocean Course at Hōkūala, this gorgeous beach is perfect for a picnic (but bad for swimming because of sometimes rough water and capricious tides). 　　To get there, see the Lihuʻe's Hidden Beaches walking tour. ...

Lihuʻe Lutheran Church

　　Hawaii’s oldest Lutheran church is a quaint clapboard house, with an incongruously slanted floor that resembles a ship’s deck and a balcony akin to a captain’s bridge. The building is actually a faithful 1983 reconstruction of the 1885 original (built by German immigrants) leveled by Hurricane Iwa. It’s located just...

Kilohana Plantation

　　If you’re curious about how Kauaʻi’s powerful sugar barons lived, visit this historic plantation estate turned shopping complex, which also hosts a luau show, the Kauai Plantation Railway and the Koloa Rum Company. Plantation owner Gaylord Wilcox built the main house in 1936. Inside the 16,000-sq-ft Tudor-style mansion, antique-filled rooms...

　　This sandy beach and sheltered bay is tucked between a marina and the mountains. It's overlooked by the Marriott resort, which faces the bay, and by an enviable collection of houses atop a rocky ridge to the east. Its easy-access location and versatility make it popular with families, but the...

　　Once ranked among Kauaʻi's most productive sugar companies, Grove Farm was acquired in 1864 by George Wilcox, the Hilo-born son of Protestant missionaries. The house feels suspended in time, with rocking chairs sitting still on a covered porch and untouched books lining the library's shelves. Call at least a week...

The river is walled off at one bend to form a 39-acre loko wai (freshwater fishpond). Local legend attributes construction to menehune, the 'little people' of Hawaiian mythology....
