About these cameras
Kauai has far fewer public webcams than Oahu or Maui — much of the island's most famous scenery, like the Na Pali Coast and Waimea Canyon, has no live camera coverage at all. The feeds that do exist cluster around the resort coasts: Hanalei Colony Resort on the north shore, the Royal Sonesta on Kalapaki Bay in Līhuʻe on the east shore, and the Lawai Beach Resort cam at Poipu overlooking one of the island's best-known snorkeling coves.
Between them you get Kauai's different weather worlds: the lush, wetter north shore around Hanalei Bay, where winter brings serious surf, the trade-wind east shore at Līhuʻe, and the sunnier, drier south shore at Poipu, which stays swimmable most of the year. If you're comparing conditions before a trip, checking the north- and south-shore cameras side by side tells you more than any forecast — the two coasts routinely look like different seasons on the same day.
