North Shore Kauai Weather and Lifestyle Summary
|
ach geographic area of Kauai is unique in climate and life style. People will have different opinions about the strengths and weaknesses of an area, and attractiveness to live or visit, but a general summary follows.
|
NORTH SHORE
|
The North Shore is the greenest part of the island, with the most beautiful views, sunrises, sunsets, beaches, rivers, and waterfalls. Always cooled by tradewinds, year-round temperature varies from high 60's (a cool day) to the low 80's (a warm day).
It is where world famous Princeville Resort is, with beautiful homes and condos, and charming Hanalei, a bustling village of art galleries, surf shops, restaurants, and retail stores. In most lists of 'World's Ten Best Beaches,' the North Shore beaches usually place from 3 to 5 of our many beaches. The golf courses in Princeville are the most beautiful and challenging in Hawaii.
Since 'North Shore' in the Atlas of Hawaii includes much of the Na Pali, Wainiha and Haena areas, where it rains much more than in Princeville, monthly rainfall is 6-7", mostly at night. But, in Princeville, it is about half that.
(Monthly rainfall Princeville/Kilauea - 3-4"; Hanalei, Haena, Wainiha - 6-7")

 |
auai is the island where people who live in the state of Hawaii go to vacation, and most think it is the best island to live on. And remember, as a resident of Hawaii, you are a kama'aina, a local. As such, you get big discounts on hotels and airfare (For instance, round trip air fares to other islands start as low as $98, and most hotels are half the regular price). |
