As you begin to plan for your trip of a lifetime to Kauai, you may have more questions in mind than answers, especially if this is your first visit. What to see, what to do, where to stay, and of course, what to pack for a week in Kauai are common questions, and we at Premier Kauai can help you with the answers.
Packing for Beaches, Bays, and Ocean Adventures
Is there anything more exciting than a day at the beach? Offering sun, sand, surf, and serenity, it really is the perfect way to spend a day. When you are wondering what to pack for your Kauai, Hawaii day at Anini Beach (or any other beach on Kauai), you’ll want to include reef-safe sunscreen, beach umbrellas, chairs, and a cooler. Beverages and snacks make the day that much more fun.
Packing for Waterfalls, Trails, and Scenic Drives
The waterfalls of Hawaii are world famous. Hanakapi’ai Falls may be on your itinerary, and if you have never visited one in person, you may not know what to pack for a visit. The trail to the falls is somewhat difficult, stretching 8 miles round-trip, so packing comfortable, sturdy hiking shoes, moisture-wicking socks, and water bottles is vital. For a scenic drive to a waterfall (Wailua Falls is a great one to see without having to hike), be sure to pack snacks, beverages, and a camera.
Packing for Kauai Sunsets and Evening Dining
A sunset in Kauai is an experience you will never forget. Fortunately, aside from a wallet, a camera, and your sense of awe, there isn’t any special clothing or equipment needed for this wonderful experience. You will probably want to make reservations at the Beach House in Poipu, which offers views of the sunset over the water and an authentic, elevated Hawaiian menu.
Kauai Essentials Most Visitors Forget
When planning what to pack for Kauai, many people forget the essentials. Sunscreen is at the top of that list, followed by water shoes, rain jackets, and insect repellent. Single-use plastic bags are banned on Kauai, so you may want to bring some reusable shopping bags, but it can be more fun to buy souvenir ones.
