We are headed to Kauai in March after a 5 year hiatus. One of our favourite beaches is Tunnels on the North Shore, but it has always been a pain to get to and find parking. I can only assume it has gotten worse since our last visit. We used to just wait for a parking spot at the Ha'ena parking lot across from the cave and then walk down the shore, but I'm not sure if that's even feasible nowadays without a permit? Other than showing up at 8am, does anybody have a winning strat for getting to Tunnels?

We have always done the same as we usually go mid afternoon, but last August it was a no-go. There were probably 15-20 cars waiting so we turned around and left (and that was difficult). Time to find another beach.

Why don't they just jack up the price for the parking so that supply and demand are in balance?
