Visited the farm with my husband and 18/22 year old daughters. I love gardening but them, not so much. I was delighted that they thoroughly enjoyed the tour. No sales pitch, no targeted marketing, just the facts of what they do. Loved it. AND, it was FREE! We learned/heard about so much more than just Noni. It was a truly enjoyable few hours and we would do it again. My youngest has severe scalp psoriasis and we have tried so many things thru our dermatologist with no relief. So, when we saw the info on this condition we knew we would give it a try. After only 2 (YES 2) days of applying the Noni lotion to her affected areas, we could visibly see it diminishing. And, her mild acne is cleared. I am planning (with her permission) to post pics before/after once she has used it a while. Its only been 2 weeks of use to date. Mahalo Steve for sharing your passion and beautiful farm!

5. Wai Koa Loop
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 150 reviews
The Wai Koa Loop Trail is a great safe 4.5 mile hiking trail on the beautiful North Shore of Kauai. You can access this hike at Anaina Hou Community Park in Kilauea. The hike is free but is on private property, so please stop in at Anaina Hou to sign a waiver, pick up a map, and purchase water, sunblock, lunch or ono snacks to take with you on this fun-filled adventure! On the hike, you’ll pass through the Kilauea Forest and then the largest mahogany plantation in North America. Then, the trail opens up and you’ll enjoy impressive views of the Namahana Mountains. The top of this loop trail takes you to the must-see historic Stone Dam (closed for renovations). It was built in the 1880’s to support the Kilauea Sugarcane Plantation and is a great place for a picnic or to enjoy a swim. The Trail is open to the public from 8:00 am to dusk and takes between 2.5 to 4 hours. A waver must be on file at Anaina Hou before you enjoy the Trail.

been here 7 times prior, since the mid ‘90’s. best advise: start early, around 10am. the reason i mention this is that parts of the trail is sunny n very hot. don’t forget to check in at the mini golf place or the trail hut, if it is open. this is for liability reasons, due to the fact that the trail is on private farming property. you will see beautiful views of the mountains, horses, cattle, ponds, and of course farming structures. not for those who want a challenge. this is for a quiet, meditative walk (that one gets away from the ‘trail’ crowds”-just to put it....calming:) they did some diversions, which by the way, are well done, due to the flood of April 2018. the dam area is closed n being repaired but the “detour paths” are fine. what a delight to take a walk/stroll among 86,000 mahogany trees, the largest of these forests in the USA n one of the largest in the world. terrain is flat except for the first 10 minutes but very easy. i highly recommend the site:) PS make sure you have water with you, as it is a 4 mile hike n takes about 2 hrs-leisurely. i wouldn’t recommend flip-flops. ALOHA~

After having visited the island for 25+ years, I finally live here full-time. I have always loved the Fish market and now that I live just minutes away, I come at least once a week for either an ahi or chicken wrap. The food here is so fresh and delicious. I especially enjoy the Tuesday-Wednesday crew. They always make the very best wraps and they always make me smile. Mahalo, to the Kilauea Fish Market for making my day every week, rain or shine. You guys totally rock!

Gorgeous beach, relaxing waves, ugly ghost crabs, pretty reefs. Loved it. Standing in the exact area where the SS MINNOW was beached, also the day JFK was shot, was chilling. Try to imagine the pilot was shot here before there was any real estate, with different actors playing GINGER, MARY ANN and the PROFESSOR. You can see this beach in the unaired pilot MAROONED. Also in the first episode TWO ON A RAFT.

I read people complaining about this beach....huh? It's a beach in the shadow of zuckerland. Great spot, some people take their clothes off, some don't. Nobody was closer than 200 feet from us... we had a spot with filtered shade most of day tucked between the trees next to the beach (like natural cabana)... then the sun came onto us around 3 pm from behind (no more shade) .... we could not snorkel here much since you have to pay attention to tides and currents...but some folks played in surf... mother nature always bats last! It's a GREAT spot to sit on the beach with your sweetie, read, snack, cool off in the dangerous surf.... and not think about work. There are rip tides and you need to understand the currents here. Look for 'beach access' on a white pole... and don't complain ascot the sand between your toes!
