Aloha and welcome to Kaua'i!

You are entering one of the most beautiful and appealing natural environments in the world - and it's important to be aware that certain things about the island might be unfamiliar to you and could pose a challenge if you are not properly informed and prepared. Please read this information carefully and then enjoy your visit to Hawaii's Island of Discovery.

General Safety Tips

• Don't leave valuables in your vehicle. If you have to store items in your trunk, stow them before you arrive at your destination.
• Don't display parking passes other than at the intended location.
• Place purses, wallets, laptop computers, cameras and similar items out of view when out or retiring for the night.
• Close and lock all doors and windows when away from your room or rental and when retiring at night, to prevent anyone from entering through open windows, glass doors or screen doors that can be cut.
• Don't dive into waterfalls or unknown pools of water: The moving water can hide rocks or loosen branches.
• Drink plenty of water while hiking - the altitude of some hikes and intense tropical sun can be dangerous for the unaccustomed visitor.
• Island rainstorms can occur quickly and even brief downpours can cause flash floods. If the water level suddenly rises in a creek, drainage canal or other waterway, head immediately for higher ground.
• Seat belts are required for the driver and all passengers; child car seats are required for children under four.
• Use caution driving on one-way bridges. Courtesy is to alternate every 6-7 cars.
• Please be aware, speed limits are strictly enforced. No U-turns. 

Beach Safety Tips

• Swim at lifeguarded beaches – ask lifeguards for safety and swimming tips.
• Lifeguards post warning signs – Don’t ignore them! Read them and heed them!
• Conditions constantly change – daily and seasonal changes must be monitored closely.
• Waves come in sets – it can look calm for up to 20 minutes between dangerous sets of huge waves.
• Hazards can exist in ANY coastal area - not just in the water. Avoid walking on sand and rocks near the ocean's edge. Never turn your back to the ocean.
• Do not fight a rip current – if caught in a current keep calm, float, breathe, don’t panic, and wave for help. Go WITH the current and conserve energy.
• Use the buddy system – never swim alone and know your limits.
• When in doubt – don't go out!
