Time certainly flew by fast and our stomachs told us all that it was time for lunch, which is included in the tour. Lunch was served at a picnic area in Lydgate Beach Park in Wailua, just about 10 minutes away.
The area around Lydgate Beach Park has been used in the filming of such movies as Blue Hawaii and Diamond Head. The park itself is huge and extremely popular with locals and keiki (children). There is a lovely keiki swimming lagoon set off from the ocean by lava rock walls. It's said that the snorkeling in this and the adjoining lagoon is amazing.
The park itself is clean and lovely. The bathroom facilities are top notch. Needless to say, Kauai County does a much better job maintaining its facilities than the State of Hawaii.
Lunch consisted of deli sandwiches, chips, salad, desert and plenty of drinks. There was ample time afterwards to explore the park. The adjoining Kamalani Playground is a great spot for all kids of all ages.
