Kauai Beach Safety Tips:

Watch the ocean at least 20 minutes before entering. You can tell hazardous conditions by the telltale signs of water moving rapidly. Also constant swirling in seemingly calm water and waves breaking far offshore can be another sign that water may not be right for swimming.

Always swim or snorkel with a buddy.

The most frequent and dangerous hazards are strong currents near shore. Areas near river mouths are particularly dangerous.

At least two of the island’s beaches have been widely promoted as nude beaches. Nudity is not permitted on Kauai’s beaches, but don’t be surprised to see more skin than usual.

HINT: The Kauai Ocean Rescue Council (KORC) has published an excellent beach safety guide. Copies are available at airport kiosks and at most hotels.
