So, I am going to be spending a week in Hawaii at the end of September this year. The Poipu Beach area on Kauai is the destination.
Naturally, I want to get some swimming in...in this case I will take advantage of warm(er) water and say Ocean swimming.
Does anyone have any advice, ideas, know of events or teams, etc? Anyone vacation or live in the area and down to show me the ropes or area to swim?
I will be at the North Shore of Kauai about the same time. Hanalei Bay is a perfect place to open water swim. It is protected by a reef and is gentle that time of year. The bay itself is rimmed by 5 miles of beach. It is about 50 minutes from where you staying, but if you get to that side you should check it out.
Also check with Kauai Masters. They do pool workouts at Lihue High and would be a good source for swim buddies, and, when and where there are open water swims. You should be able to find their information on this site.
