A few years ago I watched the sun rise from an extinct volcano on Maui. Is there a place on Kuaui to watch same?

James,
What month will you be going?

Try the Kokee State Park at the Puu o Kila or Kalalau lookouts...Waimea Canyon lookout..Kilaeua Lighthouse area...Sleeping Giant Mtn....Kalaheo at the Kukuilono Golf Course and just about anywhere in Princeville.

We stay at a place where we can watch a sunrise from our bed, right thru the balcony window. Beautiful way to wake up each morning!

Aloha James -

Aside from my pal Kal's excellent suggestions, I also recommend Lydgate Beach State Park on the east side of Kauai. My husband and I did this last month and it was a terrific vantage point. Kilauea also offers a great backdrop, but as Kal says, the month of your visit will make a difference as to which is best.

Thanks for your suggestions. I hadn't actually picked a month yet, just doing some prelimenary planning for a trip in 2002. I'm still trying to pick my islands, think I'm going to go for Kuaui and the big island.

Hi kal, could you please mention the name of where you stayed to see the beautiful sunrise? Thank you very much.
