Official 1st day on Kauai:
After a well rested night, we woke up ready to explore. The only thing planned this day was the Star Na Pali Dinner Sunset Sail cruise from Capt Andy’s Sailing Adventures. If any of you are wondering if you should book this, we would highly recommend. The cost is approximately $185 per person, but it’s worth every penny!
Our 55’ Catamaran from Capt Andy’s didn’t set sail till afternoon, so we had ample time to explore our surrounding area. We explored the southern tip of Kauai in the town of Poipu which was located near our rental home at the Sunset Kahili Condominium.
We booked this location through Vrbo and our tenant’s name was Maureen. She literally had everything there for us! Beach towels, chairs, umbrella, TV, wifi, washer dryer, you name it, she accommodated. HERE is a link to the exact location we stayed for reference. We would highly recommend!
Not only was the accommodations great, the location was prime because it was a middle point on the island. There are no roads that make a full circle around the island. So kudos to you Maureen. We loved it!
We ate breakfast at Anuenue Cafe and then visited the near by Poipu Beach Park and were lucky enough to see a Hawaiian Monk Seal taking a little break in the sand!
As we left the beach, we connected Gypsy Guide to the car and were off on our first self guided tours. I will tell you, we would not have encountered as much as we did if it weren’t for this app.
