Another short outing to take advantage of life on Kaua’i. This time we went further to Kalapaki beach near Lihue (and to think that’s the tallest building on Kaua’i):
It’s a great beach for easy waves, and Leilani learned to body board here–and loved it:
Then we went exploring to a new beach we’d never been to before, Ninini (“running waters”) just outside the port area. You have to drive through the public access roads at the Marriott hotel (follow the signs), and then hike down a little path behind the derelict building that used to be the Whaler’s brew pub. It’s a small beach, not for swimming at all, but it’s always fun to be out exploring and getting some new shots of Kaua’i:
The ugly “ruins” of an unfinished condo project really mar the view of sunset. What were the developers thinking and why hasn’t the county planning department condemned this eyesore.
