What to pack

What February feels like

February is peak whale season off Kauai, easy to watch from the cliffs at Kilauea Point without setting foot on a boat. Rain here is a local matter: Poipu on the south shore can be dry all week while Princeville sits under cloud.

Expect about 5 days with real rain — enough to notice, not enough to plan around. There’s a little humidity in the air, but nothing that changes your plans.

Can you swim?

The ocean runs about 78° — bath-warm.
