One of the biggest issues that my lady seal and I face when planning swimming excursions for the little pups is how to keep all of them entertained. As they grow, they are interested in different activities and different levels of adventure. Where do you find a place that caters to such diverse needs and
I love snorkeling. Well…as a Poipu Beach Seal, I don’t have much use for the equipment, BUT I do love seeing you people snorkel because it means that you are discovering the world I already inhabit and get to enjoy every day. As you can imagine, I get a great thrill from seeing beginner snorkelers
Planning a destination wedding can be an exciting and daunting process. My sweetheart and I were married off the coast of Fiji, and boy was it a process; the swim alone almost did us in! Well, as your friendly, local Poipu Beach seal, I’m here to help…that is, with the assistance of my friends at
The “Mrs.” and I are always encouraging our seal puppies to play in waves – “Go! Swim! Explore!” But sometimes, we have to remind them that, while some waves can be used as play things, others are only for watching. Such is the case at Lumahai Beach. Lumahai Beach is located on the north shore
As a vacation planner, it can be hard to please everyone in your party – especially when that party consists of children, teenagers, AND adults.

As a year-round resident, I appreciate any effort people make to preserve the beauty of the Garden Island. Perhaps that’s why I love the Kauai Coastal Path so much – it allows locals and tourists to enjoy the beauty of the island without causing any damage to the surrounding area. Bring the kids and walk
At this point in time, you rarely reach the end of the road anywhere. One path leads to another which leads to another, so on and so forth. For me, as a Monk Seal, my road (aka the ocean current) never ends! Still, what would happen if you really did reach the end of the
Searching for another family-friendly beach in Kauai? Look no further than the north shore’s vast Hanalei Bay – it’s just the ticket. A large coral protects this enormous bay, creating perfect conditions for surfing, boogie boarding, paddling, and kayaking. While calm during the summer, the surf at Hanalei Bay can become quite rough during the
Hiking is one of Kauai’s most popular activities – at least that’s what I hear, Poipu Seals and hiking don’t go well together. I mean, have you ever seen a seal on a hike? Not a pretty picture. Still, hiking allows access to some of the Garden Island’s most beautiful topography, but you have to
