Just got back from Kauai a few weeks ago, it was great. Anini Beach was great for snorkeling. The north shore beaches were great in general and relatively uncrowded. Tunnels Beach was rough and not really snorkelable, but you can if you really want to. Poipu was fun, but packed, and the water rough as the sandbar was out. Hit the canyon, lots of old tourists, but still worth it and at the end of the canyon (at the last lookout point) you can hike the Napali coast however far you want.
There isn't much night life in Kauai. Things tend to close down after 6.
AFAIK, you can still hike the trail, just not legally camp overnight. We paid a bunch extra for a Jeep rental and had fun exploring the inland dirt roads -- it was worth every dollar extra.
If you have any questions about recent Kauai/Maui, I can answer.
- TaylorGood 9y agoKauai is majestic. The island feels like 90%+ nature - I fell in love with there being that much greenery. My girlfriends parents live at Anini. If you paddle board the reef instead of snorkeling the sea turtles come out. To visit, end of the road is worth driving as you see various parts of Kauai.
- runjake 9y agoThere were sea turtles everywhere when we were at Anini a few weeks ago. At least a dozen just in the small-ish area we snorkeled. You couldn't miss them.
- TaylorGood 9y agoGreat. Amazing isn’t it?
