Aug 18, 2009 : Kauai : Na Pali Coast Kayak
We spent Tuesday in kayaks, paddling 17 miles across the spectacular Northwest coast. After checking-in at the guide’s headquarters in Hanalei, we were shuttled to Haena beach park / Maninilolo, the put-in spot. That’s where the fun began. National Geographic magazine selected kayaking the Na Pali Coast as one of the top adventures in the nation, and it was(!) … but … it was also a long time to paddle! We travelled along the base of 4000 foot cliffs, explored sea caves, and passed the incredible scenery of the Kalalau and Honopu valleys. At our lunch spot (after paddling a mere 4-5 hours) we saw an endangered Hawaiian monk seal sunning itself on Milolii beach. The final leg of the journey was to Polihale, the largest beach in the state. What a day!
