First stay in my (owned) timeshare. ..

[presley]

If you find a turtle spot, please take some turtle pics.

If you go to Waimea canyon, let me know how the hikes are. I am wondering how long they are/how difficult they are.

TIA.

Wiamea Canyon has all kinds of hikes - from gentle little 15 min. walks, to grueling steep, long hikes, and everything in between. It's a big area.

I like the swamp trail, if the weather cooperates. If there has been a lot of rain, the steep dirt road will be a mud bog, and you can't get to the start of the trail.

If you stop and ask at the ranger station they usually know what the conditions are like.

We almost always see turtles at Lawai'i Beach (Beach House.) They feed right on the rocky point there.

Love the tidal pool thirty feet above the surf. Now, exactly How does that work?

Rob - Is any type of fruit available this time of year? How are snorkeling conditions at Poipu?

Love your photos and how was Captain Andy's Snorkel trip?

I can hardly wait to return to HI next month.

The local markets had all the fruit and vegetables available of course some sell out faster than others. The local Safeway had everything you could ever want and more no shortage of any type of fruit or vegetable.

conditions at Poipu were good. We enjoyed snorkeling there but surf conditions at the beginning of the week we're very rough and it made for some less-than-ideal visibility

Captain Andy's Napali snorkle trip was in a word, amazing absolutely wonderful. We're going out next week on the star dinner cruise and expect it to be equally wonderful. We saw whales turtles we had a wonderful time and we saw the majesty of the Napali Coast.

Wonderful pix, Tater!!! Less than 90 days before we are back on Maui and your pix and postings are both helping the wait and making me anxious to go!

Great pics, thanks for sharing Taterhead!

Having fun reading your posts about having fun ! Glad you are enjoying Kauai.

 

[ekajun1957]

Just a month and a day till we leave. Are you doing the South Side Sunset tour or Napali. I know we won't be doing Napali my wife can't handle the motion and length of time. Let us know how that goes if you do go.

That is one of the great benefits of a timeshare. Buy Local from farmers markets

Fruit and Beaches

Is any type of fruit available this time of year?

Just returned from 3 weeks at The Point. At the supermarket we purchased:

• Pineapple - very ripe and juicy
• Apple-bananas - make sure you let them turn yellow before cutting them up
• Mango - not in season now, this one came from South America

At the farmer's market in Hanapepe:

• Apple-bananas
• Papaya
• Star fruit
• Rambutans
• Soursop -ugly green fruit new to us, probably won't buy it again

How are snorkeling conditions at Poipu?

The largest swells of the season, 35 to 45 feet were coming in. No swimming on the north shore. Beaches on the south shore where choppy. The sandbar at Po`ipu Beach has disappeared since 2 years ago. The wave action has changed making it choppier on the snorkeling right side. Maha`ulepu was relatively calm but the road is the worst I have ever seen it.

 

[Greg G]

Sounds like you had a great time on your helicopter ride. You can get some pretty spectacular snapshots from up there as evidenced by your photos.
Was it a fairly calm that day? I remember when I took mine I had taken dramamine and did fine while on the helicopter but was a little queasy right after we landed. My wife had no problems at all.
