Poipu

The southern Kauai town of Po'ipu is quickly developing into the destination for luxury accommodations on the island. Home to some of the sunniest beaches, such as Po'ipu (pictured) and Shipwreck Beach, as well as a blowhole and two National Tropical Botanical gardens, Po'ipu knows how to draw a crowd.

Growing pains continue to be felt throughout the area as construction for new high end resorts continues. Some shopping and restaurants are found in the tiny town.
