We decided to take another relaxing day at the beach, more specifically at the Kiahuna beach. The waves were quite big due to a swell from the south. It just made it more fun to play in the water 🙂
Between playing in the water and sleeping we also had time for some reading – just a little bit 😉
We returned home via a stop at the grocery store in Koloa at around 5:30 pm. And we got home just in time to watch (from our balcony) the sun set over Poipu.
Before heading out to any beach we went to the Spouting Horn. It’s not much more than a hole in the lava rock through to the water below. When the waves are high it pushes water up through the hole in a giant geyser like water canon. Well, Chie and Robert seemed transfixed anyway 🙂
Once we had satisfied out curiosity on the Spouting Horn we headed out to Maha’ulepu. It’s a 15 minutes ride on a dirt road but the area is beautiful.
We spent most of the day here bathing, relaxing and reading. Robert and I took a long walk along the shore too. It was hot but quite beautiful.
In the later afternoon the wind got quite strong so we packed our things and drove to Kiahuna where we spent almost as much time playing in the waves as we did on the beach. It was pure fun!
At 5:30 we packed aÂ¥our things again and headed home. Today we were in time for the sunset but the sun was covered by clouds. Well, there is always another day… The view is from our room’s window so any day 🙂
In the morning we went to the Kauai Community College where they had a farmer’s market. Chie wanted to buy some coffee. We also ended up buying some Kauai made Eco-bags.
Afterwards we rewarded ourselves with a day at the Kiahuna beach. The surf was quite big in the afternoon so it was really fun playing in the water 🙂
Before returning home we had a Mai Tai and a strawberry smoothie at the pool bar of Sheraton next to the beach.
