Princeville/Hanalei
Princeville is located on the northern coast of the island of Kauai, between the towns of Hanalei and Kilauea. What started as a coffee plantation in the mid-1800s is now the largest planned development on Kauai. Princeville is home to some of the finest resorts, golf courses and restaurants on the islands. Kauai’s north shore is also where you’ll find some of the most spectacular scenery in Hawaii. There are three main beaches in Princeville, which are Kenomene Beach, Kaweonui Beach and Puu Poa Beach. A wide reef along these beaches creates warm pockets for swimming and snorkeling in calm weather. Other area activities include tennis, golf, windsurfing, kayaking, fishing, sailing, helicopter tours and shopping. You can arrange for a private guided jungle hike, waterfall excursion or kayaking adventure. Just outside of Princeville along Highway 56 is a beautiful scenic overlook that is marked by a Hawaiian warrior state marker. From here you can look out over the lush Hanalei Valley. A little further south of Princeville you will find the Guava Farm, National Wildlife Refuge and Bird Sanctuary where you can learn about the native plants and animals on this incredible island. You can also tour the Kilauae Lighthouse that stands on the northern most point in all of Hawaii. Princeville is ideally located on the scenic north coast, making it a good home base while touring all the area attractions.
Hanalei is located along the banks of the Hanalei River on the scenic north central coast of Kauai. It is situated between the towns of Haena and Princeville, near Hanalei Bay. The village of Hanalei has a charming collection of boutiques, art galleries and restaurants, and is home to the Ching Young Village, which is an open-air shopping center that started as a general store in 1906. This is the center of the village and you’ll find everything from groceries and film to hand made items by local residents. Hanalei Bay is a beautiful crescent shaped beach that is carved into the base of a steep cliff on one side and it narrows into a rocky point on the other side. You will find swimming, snorkeling, hiking, kayaking, surfing and other outdoors activities in the area. The western side of Hanalei Bay is warm and relatively calm year round, even when most other spots on the north coast are too rough for swimming in the wintertime. And, the golf courses of Princeville are just five minutes away. Other points of interests near Hanalei include Anini Beach, Lumahai Beach, and Hanalei Beach Park.
