Thank you, Pat. St. Martin has been our favorite island for many years for the two of us, but we want to try something new with the family. We’ve followed many of your recs over the years!

We will begin in Oahu, mostly for the Pearl Harbor Memorial, but will spend the majority of our time on Kauai. We have a large house booked on the South shore.

Any advice and/or recommendations from experienced Kauai travelers would be most welcome. Travel dates = Aug. 1-9.
