    • Historic Kukui’ula Harbor & Beach
    April 9, 2015

    Kukui’ula Harbor is a historic Kauai gem on the way to Spouting Horn on Lawai Beach Road (Lawai Rd.) In the early 1900′s, it was used for an important sampan harbor for the local Island fishing industry. “Kukui’ula” in Hawaiian means “kukui fire” or light, as the oil from the indigenous kukui nut was used to to provide light for the fishing vessels to find their way back at night.

    The Harbor hasn’t changed much over the years. With a ring of small beaches lining it’s sides and the clear blue ocean water, it provides a laid-back recreational haven for locals and visitors alike.
