VIEWPOINTS

As you dip down the road from Princeville to Hanalei keep your eyes towards the ocean, the view is breath taking. You may want to stop in the big curve on the right side, “Vista Point” for some quick photos. Just bellow, you will see the green Hanalei Valley and the beautiful Hanalei Bay with Bali Hai in the distance.

As you are leaving Hanalei, you will pass wooden bridges. As you go over the bridges, you begin to see the amazing Napali Coastline. 

Island Guide

Kauai offers endless nature exploration and entertainment options. Hale Makai has compiled a few recommendations that we enjoy and hope you do too.

Haena State Park

Guests who would like to visit Haena State Park, including Ke’e beach, must make a reservation in advance and purchase a parking permit if you plan to drive. If you drive, you will need to buy both a parking and entrance pass. Reservations sell out quickly and you will not be able to enter the park without one. Reservations open 30 days in advance at midnight Kauai time.
