The east coast is also home to numerous white sand beaches, including favorites such as Kealia, Lydgate, and Kalapaki. Kealia Beach is a favorite for swimming and boogie boarding, while Lydgate offers swimming and snorkeling in calm conditions that are perfect for families. Kalapaki Beach has rental gear and a surf school right on site, making it a convenient option for those who want to delve into water activities.

Islander on the Beach sits just north of where the Wailua River empties into the Pacific. The Wailua River is the only navigable river in the state, and boat tours or kayak excursions can be enjoyed upriver to enjoy the rainforests that make up a portion of the island’s interior. Paddle on your own accord aboard a kayak or stand up paddle board or relax aboard a motorized boat offered by Smith’s. Smith’s is also known for their excellent luau.

Wailua Falls is one of the island’s most stunning waterfalls and is located just a short drive away! This breathtaking waterfall falls in two parallel twin falls into a pool below. When the sunlight is just right, a rainbow can often be seen at the base of the falls so that you’re looking down on it from the viewing platform. Unlike many of Kauai’s waterfalls which require a difficult hike to reach. There is a small parking lot near the falls with a viewing platform near the water’s peak.
