The Best Climate on Kauai’s North Shore

Kauai’s North Shore real estate reigns supreme in the hearts of many because the North Shore offers easy access to miles of quiet sandy beaches and a dramatic backdrop of 2,000 foot waterfalls cascading down green mountains. The lushness of the North Shore just speaks “Hawaii.”

North Shore Microclimates

The North Shore is also very desirable because it has several microclimates from which to choose. One of the sunniest microclimates is Waipake, which is at the southern end of Kilauea. Waipake’s rainfall is 40-60 inches per year. Average rainfall tends to increase the further you drive toward the end of the road Kee Beach Park, or inland toward the mountains.

For example, Kalihiwai Ridge gets 80-160 inches, Princeville gets 60-80 inches, and Hanalei and Haena get up to 120 inches of rain per year on average.

Waipake is a beautiful spot providing the best sunrises! It seems to be a popular spot for bird watchers too. It is a wonderful neighborhood.

This is a gorgeous property – serene, spacious and the perfect island oasis. The photos do not do it justice. Every time I visit, I feel transported, renewed and inspired. Every detail has been attended to in the design and decor.
