When you land

Things to do in Lihue

Lihue is the county seat of Kauai and the island’s commercial center, home to its main airport, Nawiliwili Harbor and the government offices, shopping and hospitals that serve the whole island. The town grew up around sugar plantations, and that heritage remains visible at sites such as Kilohana and Grove Farm. Tourism now drives most of the economy, along with agriculture, the Pacific Missile Range Facility on the west side and a population of second-home owners drawn by the island’s rural, unhurried character.

    These towering green sea cliffs on Kauai’s northwest shore can be seen by boat, helicopter or the challenging Kalalau Trail, which requires a permit beyond the first stretch.

    North of Lihue, guided kayak trips paddle up the river to a hike to Secret Falls, and Opaekaa Falls can be seen from a roadside lookout.
