Beautiful reef fish and other delights can be seen when snorkeling from some beaches. Each beach on Kauai has its own characteristics based on the season, the location around the island and the local ocean currents and the weather patterns in effect. Since Kauai snorkeling can be a bit more challenging, beginner beaches like Poipu Beach Park in the south and Lawai or Beach House Beach are a good place to start. For more experienced snorkelers, Tunnels and Hideaways Beaches on the north side are good bets.
