Queen's Bath in Princeville, Kauai
On our last trip to Kauai, and hopefully soon to be repeated, we spent a fair amount of time exploring the island, both north and south shores, but still found plenty of time to just dump and unwind.
Near the end of our 8 days we explored the Queen's Bath in the Princeville area where we stayed on the North Shore. It was pretty cool, not crowded, and while not the easiest walk down the hill on a rather slippery path then over the lava rock to get to the Bath, it was great fun.
That said, I did some additional research after visiting, and getting to and visiting the Queen's Bath can be kinda risky due to the unpredictability of the ocean waves that, when in the mood, sweep people off the ledges and into the ocean...and a number of deaths have occurred. There is plenty of discussion about the dangers and safety concerns of the site, and even the recommendation to not go at all (e.g., HawaiiGaga; Tom's Barefoot Tours). I guess that one time will be it!!
