Looking for what to do in Kauai in February?
Kauai is not only the oldest habitable island within the Hawaiian chain, it is also the most mysterious. With 80% of Kauai being inaccessible by either foot or automobile– how can you make sure that you are experiencing the most when vacationing in Kauai this February?
Unlike the majority of the US- Hawaii in the winter is the most wonderful place to be. Instead of curling up with hot cocoa while being stuck inside due to inclement weather, you could be snorkeling in the same waves as newborn whales or surfing the waves of the large North Shore swell that comes at this time of year.
So what is there to do in Kauai in February?
What Are the Best Places to Visit in Kauai this Winter?
As mentioned, most of Kauai is completely inaccessible to us via foot or car; however, there are ways that you can see the ancient and secluded natural wonders this elderly island is home to.
Because Kauai, and the islands of Hawaii in general, are tropical– there is largely no need to worry about what the weather is going to be like in winter or to plan the sites you wish to see around it. You can hike down into Waimea Canyon and spend the day trekking into the luscious and reserved natural beauty that surrounds this natural landmark. If being land-locked is not your style, venture out on a boat tour where you will come face to face with the mother and newborn humpback whales who travel from the frigid Alaskan waters down to the warm inlets that weave between each island in the Hawaiian chain.
No matter what you wish to see, February is the time to visit Kauai! You’ll be promised sunshine, warm weather, (besides a little bit of winter rain) and at this time of year, fewer tourists venturing out to this small dot in the South Pacific than the other months of the year. If you wish to see some of these amazing sites without the influx of hustle and bustle that comes with the busier travel season be sure to book your Kauai vacation for February.

How Can I Tour Kauai in February?
While you can hike down into the canyon or around the multitude of other amazing trails that the Garden Isle is home to; there is arguably no better way to tour Kauai than by air! A car and your feet can only get you so far– especially with the amount of hidden natural wonders that exist well off-road.
The month of February is a magical month across the Hawaiian islands. It is not only the peak of whale season, as mentioned, but the air is slightly cooler 70 degrees in most places and there is a slight lull to tourist season meaning the best hikes, snorkeling spots, and restaurants aren’t nearly as crowded!
However, even with the greater accessibility due to the lesser number of visitors, you still might not have time to see it all!
If you book a private helicopter or airplane tour, however, you can not only experience each notable attraction in one go but see things that few people in the world have ever seen!
