For
vacationers, Waimea offers a mild climate year 'round. Nearby are
four major state parks including the incredible Waimea Canyon, described
as the Grand Canyon of the Pacific, the forests of Kokee, the hanging
cliffs of the Napali Coast and the sand dunes of Polihale.

sites of Waimea, once the leading village and port of entry for
Kauai, are within walking distance.
Waimea

police, movies at the restored Waimea Theatre, activities, a medical
