Getting to the North Shore of Kauai is a breeze. This portion of the island has a more upscale feel, with many luxury hotels. While there are plenty of places to stay on the North Shore, it can also be a bit wet since it receives more rain than the other areas of the island. Getting to the West Side of the island can be a two-hour drive. If you’re going to enjoy the island’s lush scenery and outdoor activities, the North Shore is the place to be.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you prefer to spend your time on the beaches, you should stay on the south shore of the island. This region of the island offers some of the best weather on the island. Many tourists stay here as it offers all the amenities they need. There’s also a section of the coastline that has remained undeveloped, and plenty of open space to enjoy the scenery. After a rainy day, the Hanalei Mountain range can have more than a dozen waterfalls.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For an island-wide vacation, Kauai is an excellent destination for an active vacation. The island’s pristine beaches, lush rainforests, and a plethora of other activities are just a short drive away. There are many hotels on the island and you’re sure to find one that fits your needs. The best option is to book a Kauai vacation package that includes accommodation. Just remember to plan ahead!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Princeville and Poipu are the major hubs of the South Shore and the North Shore, respectively. Both areas have plenty to offer visitors, but it’s a good idea to divide your time between these two cities. Visiting both places will allow you more flexibility and less driving time. This is also the best choice if you’re on a budget. For the best value, you should try to stay in a hotel near the South Shore instead of a remote location.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The other option is to rent a car. While driving around the island, you’ll probably need to rent a car in order to explore the different areas. While car rentals can be costly in Kauai, it’s a good idea to use coupon codes in order to save even more money on car rental. These can be found in many places on the island, and can help you save even more money on your rental. And if you’re going to book your trip, make sure you have an itinerary.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The climate on Kauai is incredibly pleasant for vacationing. Rainfall is sporadic, and lasts only a few minutes. The wettest areas are on the north side of the island, while the driest areas are on the south. During the winter months, the weather on Kauai is best on the south coast. If you plan on staying in Poipu or the South, you’ll likely enjoy the best weather in Kauai.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
