 e're pretty confident that if you're into shopping, you're going to be able to sniff out the shopping locations without much
assistance from us. Eager to rake in your cash, most shopping centers are conveniently located in Lihue and right off the main highway (Hwy 56) that transverses
much of the island.
 If you're looking for a uniquely Kauaian memoir, look around for a Red Dirt shirt; these t-shirts are individually hand-dyed on-island
using nothing other than Kaua'i's famous Red Dirt. Or, if you've got some serious cash, you might consider purchasing a shell lei made by the folks
on Ni'ihau (the forbidden island). And we do mean serious cash; Ni'ihau shell leis range from a couple of hundred dollars to several thousand dollars.
Starting west and heading north through Lihue, the major shopping centers on Kaua'i are:
|
| Waimea Canyon Plaza (in Kekaha; funky little town on the West Shore with mainly souvenier-type shops; cheap spot to buy island-wear) |
|
| Po'ipu Shopping Village (as the name implies, in Po'ipu; mainly souvenir-type shops) |
|
| Coconut Marketplace (in Kapa'a; mainly souvenir- and artsy-type shops) |
|
| Kaua'i Village Shopping Center (in Kapa'a; has Pizza Hut, Safeway) |
|
| Princeville Shopping Center (in Princeville; trendy (and expensive) shops, also has a larger (and expensive) grocery store) |
|
| Ching Young Village (in Hanalei; island nick-knack stores, also has a Subway) |
|
Hanalei Center (in Hanalei; t-shirt/surf-type shops, a couple of small restaurants housed in the old Hanalei School.)
