When Spring Break comes around once again, travelers from across the map understandably long to make the most of it. This year, when you’re looking for a place to enjoy your Spring Break downtime that’s sunny, fun for everyone, and always filled with flavor, you’ll find it all and more waiting for you on Kauai! Here, you can fill your days with time on the beach, make the most of getting out on the waves, or simply shop and dine your way through a fantastic stay too. No matter what you like to do, Kauai is a place where you can easily turn your trip into a customized experience from start to finish. The following are just a few ideas to help you get started when you’re excited to make it an unforgettable Spring Break on Kauai.
Find Time to Refresh on the Sand and Waves
Kauai is known and loved for its stunning natural beauty and a big draw for those spending time here over Spring Break is the opportunity to spend as much time on the shoreline as possible! There’s a seemingly endless lineup of options when it comes to breathtaking beaches to check out during your stay but if you have to narrow down the list, the following shouldn’t be missed.
For those who are spending time along the North Shore during Spring Break, destinations like Anini Beach are absolutely incredible for snorkeling as it hosts one of the widest and longest reef in the entire Hawaiian archipelago. For some of the best snorkeling on the island, head to Lydgate Beach. The area is great for beginners as the water is protected from strong currents by the rocks. You’ll see lots of colorful ocean life enjoying these calm waters. And many of our condos are nearby!
If your plans have you lingering closer toward the South Shore of Kauai this spring, don’t miss out on the fun that awaits at Poipu Beach. This is often pointed to as one of the top beaches on the entire island, and while it’s amazing for sunbathing and swimming in the daytime, it’s often the gorgeous sunsets that keep visitors coming back for more.
If you’re committed to spending as much time as possible in the water and can’t wait to admire amazing views too, time at Hanalei Beach or Ke’e Beach are highly recommended destination this time of year.

Try Surf lessons
For travelers who look forward to Spring Break as the perfect time of year to try something new, Kauai is a great place to book a surfing lesson during your trip this way. While experienced surfers already know Kauai is a top-rated destination on the map for Hanging 10, those who are new to the sport would be hard-pressed to find a better place to learn the basics alongside a professional.
Put your adventurous spirit to work this spring on Kauai when you partner with local lesson providers in the area like East Side Surfing School Kauai in Kapa’a, Kauai Surf School in Poipu, or Endless Summer Surf School in Koloa to name a few of many options. These lessons are designed to give beginner surfers an understanding of water safety, the history and culture linked to surfing, and of course, the basics you’ll need to grow your skillset on the waves. Whether you book a private surf lesson, or enjoy learning alongside family and friends, it could end up being the highlight of your stay.
Take a Customized Tour
Getting out and enjoying the sights is one of the most memorable ways to spend your Spring Break on Kauai. While you’re here this time of year, consider booking a Secret Falls Tour where you’ll single or double kayak your way along the Wailua River alongside a guide to reach the trail leading to the cascades. Secret Falls tumbles 80 feet from above, and tour participants are invited to reward themselves when they reach the falls with a dip in the pool if they’d like to.
Treat Yourself to a Tasty Moment
The island of Kauai is a food enthusiast’s dream come true, with no shortage of options when it comes to delicious restaurants to explore during a stay. When you’re here over Spring Break, make sure to enjoy places like The Beach House in Koloa at least once! This is a beautiful waterfront eatery on the island that’s particularly popular for sunset meals. The menu features a wide variety of fresh-caught fare to enjoy and the handcrafted cocktail list is equally impressive. You’ll want to make reservations in advance and as an added bonus, your open-air seating options typically offer up a great view out over local surfers putting their skills to work on the water too.
If it’s a sweet moment you’re after, look no further than a stop at Wishing Well Shaved Ice in Hanalei. This is a family-friendly destination where you can order up shaved ice in an impressive array of creative flavor options. If you want to commemorate your experience, you’ll find Wishing Well Shaved Ice has a ton of merchandise available to purchase, including hats and t-shirts.
We’d be remise if we didn’t mention Waikomo Shave Ice. They’re one of the top-rated shaved ice companies on the island and have a wide variety of flavors. For an extra-tropical feeling, you can even get your treat in a coconut shell!
Once you have your shaved ice in hand, you’re invited to settle in at one of the shaded picnic tables and enjoy the tasty moment in good company.
