Poipu

Poipu Beach

I don't think we went here last time, maybe we did. Though I don't have any pictures.

Poipu was the #1 beach in the world in 2001 by Dr. Beach. So it would be a good idea to go. I bought into the hype. It did not disappoint. There was an island about 50 yards from the beach. No one was there, but a few people were in the channel. I asked Malia if she wanted to go. We went. I was preoccupied about the water going over our heads, but it didn't. It was somewhat rocky, but the rocks weren't a problem. A pretty girl was in front of us. She got to the island first. After we went, a number of people followed suite.

We enjoyed the little island for a little while and went back. Michelle blew up my tube and I went into the water with my tube.

Overall, this beach only has a few spots where people can swim. Its more for snorkelers because of a lot of rocks. The surf is a bit rough. I'm surprise they don't have a rock wall to break the surf. But Kauai doesn't do that.
