A fun Parade with the community lighting up themselves or their vehicles to celebrate the arrival of the Holiday Season. Parade starts when the Festival of Lights (at the Historic County Building) light up at 6pm with songs by the Kauai Chorale. The parade starts from the Vidinha Stadium and travels up Rice Street to the Historic County Building. There is also a craft fair at the Kauai Museum that lasts all day from 9am-night with food vendors. Great for the entire family.
Our team at the #Kauai Beach Guide loves a parade and loves helping putting out info that “helps save lives.” Our amazing Beach Guide was created to help stop the drownings that have happened in Kauai these last few years. The daily ocean and weather report, the pins that mark the safety of beaches, the safety info, all are designed to give you a wonderful, worry free vacation on our Island. The app also has info on facilities at each beach, GPS, filters for child-friendly beaches, and much, much more. Enjoy the Parade, enjoy the FREE #Kauai Beach Guide iPhone app.

There are times when two plus two can equal three. Trio Con Brio Copenhagen is one such instance, where family ties, cultural blending, and musical connections all converge to color, shape and energize the concerts they present worldwide. Korean sisters Soo-Jin and Soo-Kyung Hong and Danish pianist Jens Elvekjaer created the Trio in Vienna in 1999 with the concept of pairs coming together. The sisters had played together since childhood, and Jens Elvekjaer and Soo-Kyung Hong (who are now married) had played piano and cello duos together for years. According to Mr. Elvekjaer, “We have always felt that this ‘two and two equals three’ dynamic provides a uniqueness and intensity to all of our performances.” This is a presentation of the Kauai Concert Association. Tickets can be purchased at the door, $25 for adults, $10 for students.

Did you know that Hawaii has the lowest percentage of voters of all the 50 States? Please help change that awful statistic. You don’t have to vote for every office — heck, if you only want to vote for one person, that’s okay! Only 45% of Hawaii votes — let’s try for a minimum of 50% this time around.
There are so many things that we SHOULD do — like consulting the #Kauai Beach Guide iPhone app (FREE for a limited time) before heading out to a beach. There’s a daily ocean report so you know how high the surf is going to be; there’s a weather report, too. Have kids? Find the friendliest beaches for kids. Want to know what facilities there are? – that’s there, too. There’s all sorts of information — and that’s because we want to Help Save Lives! Our goal is to keep the number of drownings down by giving people a tool that let’s them know what’s happening with the ocean on any given day. SO – Vote in the election, download the FREE Kauai Beach Guide iPhone app.

Another Historical Event was the release of the Kauai Beach Guide iPhone app a little over two years ago. The purpose of the app is to “Help Save Lives”. How? By having color-coded pins to show which beaches are the safest; a daily ocean and weather report; a list of facilities at each good beach; GPS; a filter to show child-friendly beaches as well as other important facts. The year the app was released, there were 15 drownings on Kauai. This year there are far less! We hope our app had something to do with that. For a limited time, the #Kauai Beach Guide iPhone app is FREE.
