Our Favorite Things

Clayton and I have been visiting Kauai since 1994. Now as part-time residents, we are practically locals. As such, we frequently are asked about the island. In particular, we are asked about our favorite things to see and do while on island. So, we have complied this list for you. However, even on the slow laid-back island of Kauai, things do change especially since COVID broke. While I will do my best to keep this list updated, I strongly recommend that you use it as a starting point and do your own homework. ~ Aloha! Tammy
