Haena
sits on the northern coast of Kauai near Tunnels Beach and Wainiha Bay. This is a very interesting area located along the 38-mile stretch of Highway 56, where legend has it that the sea caves were formed by the fire goddess Pele’s search for a new home. This is also where you will find the trailhead for the only land route to the beautiful Na Pali Coast. Haena State Park is a great place for swimming in the summer time and surfing in the winter. You will find restrooms and showers, and mobile snack vans located on the beach. Points of interest in the Haena area include the Waioli Mission House. This mission was built in 1837 of coral limestone blocks and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Waioli Mission Hall and the picturesque Waioli Huiia Church are also nearby. There are five botanical gardens located near Haena, and beautiful Limahula Garden was recently named National Botanical Garden of the Year. Visitors can enjoy 17 acres of gardens and rain forest, and rare native plants. You will find yourself entranced with this tropical paradise found along Kauai’s north shore.

The North Coast of Kauai with its huge areas of tropical forest, picturesque coastline, green mountains and cascading waterfalls is one of the most beautiful places on Earth. Plenty of rainfall helps keep it this way, although on Kauai, the forecast is usually rain at night or early morning, followed by warm, sunny days. Kauai's climate varies according to location, with the northern part of the island being the rainiest. Mount Waialeale is known as the wettest spot on earth, with approximately 486 inches of rain per year. By comparison, the southwestern part of the island is dry. Kauai has the warm temperatures typical of Hawaii year-round, with no more than a 7 or 8 degree difference between summer and winter, and the northwesterly trade winds keep the warm temperatures from becoming too oppressive.
