Kauai Travel Guides and Books

A good guidebook is an essential part of planning for any first-time trip, and visitor's on their second or third trip will benefit from the insider information and directions to hard-to-find places.
Kauai Underground Guide
Very complete guidebook written by a resident of Kauai. I have this book, I use it, and I know the author. Her main goal is to help you, the visitor. She breaks the book up into easy-to-follow sections, including information on everything you need to know, whether it is your first visit or your 20th. Included in every book is a CD sampler of music by hawaiian-music legend Keali'i Reichel and a part of the proceeds of every book go to children's charities on Kauai. great buy!

Kauai Trailblazer
I have this book, and can recommend it to any Kauai visitor who wants to actually do stuff on their vacation. If you want to sit at the hotel bar or the hotel beach every day, don't bother, but if you want to know which of the 119 reviewed hikes and walks would suit you best, or which of the 68 talked-about beaches you have to fit into your vacation, or which of the 42 discussed snorkeling pools probably has the most fish - well then, buy this book!
