Waipouli Beach is an ideal setting for weddings, vow renewals, proposals and photo sessions. Its naturally rocky shoreline discourages swimming and surfing, which means the beach is rarely crowded and offers a quiet, private atmosphere for your special moment.

Located in the heart of Kapaa, directly in front of the Waipouli Beach Resort and the Oasis Restaurant, this spot is both convenient and beautiful. The area is dotted with mature trees, including iconic palm trees, providing welcome shade from the Kauai sun. In addition to ocean views, Sleeping Giant (Nounou) mountain rises in the distance, allowing for stunning photos with a mountainous backdrop. It’s a wonderful choice for couples looking for privacy, convenience and visual variety.

Best for: private ceremonies, shaded locations, mountain-and-ocean backdrops and easy access in Kapaa.
