ALL ABOUT KAUAI

"THE GARDEN ISLE"

Kauai is the Northernmost of the Hawaiian Islands, and the oldest. Formed by a volcano (now extinct), time has turned much of Kauai's rock into rich, fertile soil. High mountain rainfall, often exceeding 400 inches per year at the center of the island, produces lush, green vegetation, and makes Kauai ideal for agriculture and wildlife. Enjoy Kauai's warm and friendly people, clean air, beautiful rivers, tropical and sea birds, dramatic mountains and valleys, and blue ocean waters.

THE SOUTH SHORE

"THE SUNNIEST SPOT ON KAUAI"

Brennecke's Beach Cottage and Poipu Beach Hale are located in Poipu, Kauai's sunniest spot (average temperature of 78 degrees Fahrenheit, with annual rainfall of only 16 inches). The Poipu area offers a variety of dining experiences. Walk to Brennecke's Beach Broiler; or drive right over to Keoki's Paradise, the Beach House Restaurant, Roy's Poipu Bar & Grill, or Tidepools at the Hyatt Hotel. Stop by one of our farmers' markets for a taste of local culture. Sample our exotic fresh fruits--juicy mangos, sunrise papayas, apple bananas, fresh coconut juice, passionfruit and more. Our year 'round warm weather always provides an abundant harvest of fruits and vegetables. Check for Luaus (Hawaiian-style feasts) and other local events in one of the drive guides (also available at the Lihue airport).
