We went into a sea cave with Captain A'A on a "Seiko" and the snorkeling spot was one of the best spots we've ever been to! Make sure you take the early morning tour as the ocean is much calmer which is more enjoyable and offers the possibility of getting into a cave.

Travel towards Lihue/Poipu
Remember, you're on an island with 1 major road that goes around. If you're heading to Lihue, Poipu, or Waimea areas, try to do it before 11:00 am. They have what's called "contra flow traffic". The normal 1 lane road heading to Lihue has cones put up early in the morning to make it 2 lanes until 11:30ish. After that, it goes back to 1 lane which can add an extra 20-30 minutes onto your drive. But you're on a beautiful island, so it's not too bad. Relax and enjoy the beautiful views.
