Do you want to get away from it all?
Then this is the hike for you. Nestled on a remote, knobby stretch of shoreline 2 miles west of Ke’e Beach, the North Shore Coastal Wildlife Hike doesn’t bustle with day trippers and beach bums like so many other Kauai hikes. You’ll see locals out in droves during this uncrowded outing–they love coast life and clean shorelines just as much as we do! More than wildlife sightings, it turns out that marine debris remains a high fave here since we offer knee-deep snorkeling opportunities for even the non-swimmers among us.
A beautiful coastal hike in the true Hawaiian tradition. Explore Kauai’s North Shore with our guided walk along a stretch of pristine, undeveloped coastline. Make sure to come prepared for some severe snorkeling if the ocean is calm! Wear sturdy shoes and dress comfortably as you may be walking barefoot in the sand!
