Top 5 Bodies of Water in Kauai, Hawaii (HI)

April 6, 2022 Kandra Bartel

Relaxing and pristine Kauai (the Garden Island) is the least commercially developed of the Hawaiian islands. Waterfalls, scenic drives and more than 60 beaches dot the landscape. Some beaches have great snorkeling, others offer child-friendly tidal pools and some are perfect for all kinds of water sports. Dry-land activities include hiking the Kalalau Trail on the Na Pali coastline, taking a day trip to Waimea Canyon and experiencing life on a sugar plantation at Grove Farm Homestead Museum.

Keahua Arboretum

Reviewed By grlgrdgate - California, United States

The Keahua Arboretum has really evolved into something spectacular over the years. It used to be under construction and difficult to find, but it is now easily accessible and there is a beautiful bridge. It is really serene, and the Rainbow Eucalyptus are a unique sight to see. It is close to Opaekaa Falls, so if you make the trip to the falls, drive about 7 more minutes down the road to see the Rainbow Trees at Keahua Arboretum.

Menehune Fish Pond

Reviewed By traveltheworld461 - Fort McMurray, Canada

GPS initially took us to the side of the road to cut through thick jungle to access the actual pond. We just followed the road SE and found the lookout area. If you GPS to Menehune Fishpond Overlook, you will have better luck. The signs were really informative and interesting. It was cool to see such an amazing engineering feat in person. We also saw fish jumping in the pond. Worth the stop and it's free.
