Koloa Heritage Trail

A 10-mile hiking and biking trail on Kaua'i's south shore.

Reviewed By HawaiiChris2020

The Heritage Trail is an excellent way to see the coast from lava cliffs, sea turtles in the coves, waves crashing into the coast, areas sacred to native Hawaiians, and a beautiful beach at the end of the hike. It is an in and out hike so take a water bottle and a camera! We got some phenomenal pictures of Kauai's coast. This trail has side trails for better views of the coast. Take your time and veer off to see the sites!

Koloa Monday Farmers Market

Reviewed By 403marcym

This was a surprising hit for our family! Who knew the Farmer’s Market could be so fun?!?! The crowds around certain trucks (hello, lettuce lady!) were astounding and fun to watch. And the vendors were generous with samples of fruits we were unfamiliar with. The selection of bananas was our favorite. The ice cream bananas and the apple bananas were both delicious and unlike any banana we had ever eaten. Highly recommend!

We stayed across the street from the beach..! We watched surfers try their hand at the waves every day!! It was fun to see each one's style! A monk seal found his way to the sand by the walkway so was staked out by the locals to protect it!! He was a big one!!
