Kilauea Point National Wildlife Refuge, Hawaii, United States


4.5 (936 reviews) Wednesday: 10:00 AM - 4:00 PM Spent Ranking #2 in Kauai Nature & Wildlife Areas

Coastal views are incredible!

***Plan ahead and get your reservation online*** If you have a National Park Pass, be sure to bring it with you and use for your reservation (it only costs $1 for up to 4-people). You currently cannot go in the Lighthouse, but they have done a great job to make the grounds accessible and safe. There were so many sea birds and a few seals in the cove. If it's a sunny day, bring a hat or wear sunblock, as everything is pretty much unshaded. Binoculars would be great for those who want to check out the shoreline for animals and the nearby cliffs for birds. I didn't go during whale season, but I heard you can see a lot of them in the winter/spring.

    Wonderful Vistas from North Tip of Kauai
    Due to COVID restrictions, reservations required for entry to this lighthouse/bird sanctuary at the north tip of Kauai island. Lighthouse is closed but awesome views of the neighboring cove and the coastline to the southwest (toward Bali Hai from old movie, South Pacific). Lots of birds to view - bring your binoculars to view the nesting area across the cove or the small island off the north point. Watch out for Nenes - they are everywhere along the access road and throughout the sanctuary. Parking can be limited, but easy walks in the relatively small peninsula. Nice gift shop.
