Waipouli Beach

Highlight (Segment) • Beach

This is a nice beach to spot beautiful sunrises in Kauai, and if you are lucky you can see Kauai’s monk seals, who often stop to rest in the area. Here is where the Kaapa Bike Path starts, and you can enjoy the convenient and family-friendly lodging, with shopping, coffee shops, and other activities. The beach is just in front of Waipouli Beach Resort, but it has public access on the south end.

Waipouli Beach Park

Highlight • Beach

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.
