Overview
Interesting and easily accessible, this wet cave is located along Kuhio Highway at mile marker 10. Along the roadside just down the road from Haena Beach Park, this cave is an interesting spot to observe the spring-fed pond. The cave is said to have been the place where the fire goddess Pele and her earthbound mortal lover and chief of Kauai Lohiau met secretly. Although the cave is fed by springs, there are some tidal movements in the cave. Parking is easily allowed anywhere near the cave entrance as long as it does not impede traffic. -Lottie Tagupa
