Here are some fun places to visit if you are looking for night life here on the Garden Island:

Trees Lounge www.treesloungekauai.com- mellow and cozy bar with live, local music and Pupus! Love it

Tradewinds at the Coconut Marketplace- bar/club, sometimes with a DJ, sometimes live music and sometimes if you’re lucky you get the old Kareoke couple singing random Lionel Richie songs. Always fun and interesting with all ages, shapes and colors.

Rob’s Goodtimes Bar and Grill- Dance club located in Lihue with DJ. Especially fun is “Bladder Buster Thursdays” just make sure you use the restroom BEFORE you go.

Pizzera’s RAGER- Kind of random, Pizzera’s opened up their doors as a night club on Friday’s and Saturday’s with DJ, dancing and ono Pizza served all night. Fun

Tahiti Nui- bar on the North Shore with music and dancing

The Point- night club on the South Side with DJ and dancing…and go go dancers

Lizard Lounge- casual and mellow bar with pool table, darts and food

The Waipouli and Aloha Beach Resort just opened bars- haven’t been, but heard they are both fun and right on the beach!

I think that’s about it for now…what were you expecting??? It’s Kauai not LA!

People always ask us “does Vog affect the island of Kauai?” My expert Australian boss says, “yes it does, but it’s not as severe as the islands to the South. We do occasionally get Vog during times of south winds, but fortunately southerly winds are not very prevalent.” Basically, it’s minimal and short lived

Hope that helps!
