nbist Posted August 29, 2016 #2 Share Posted August 29, 2016 Wow! You must have a strong back and a tolerant toddler! ;-) Not too many comments on your itinerary, but you could consider going to the Zoo in Honolulu. It is really a pretty zoo and when we were there there were many moms and toddlers having a great time running and playing. Make time for some shave ice too. The best we found was in Lahaina.

Thanks for the zoo tip! My husband is in charge of carrying her around haha - and shes used to taking naps in the carrier. Shes a trooper. I've added on a shaved ice stop! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeaThruU Posted August 30, 2016 #4 Share Posted August 30, 2016 Kauai is our favorite Hawaiian island. We have visited there two times for a week at a time. If you have time, an open-air helicopter ride around the island is awesome. Especially the Napali Coast and the Waimea Canyon from the air.

PNW Traveler Posted August 30, 2016 #5 Share Posted August 30, 2016 (edited) I would add at least one perfect beach day experience with your toddler. Perfect protected beaches on Kauai are Lydgate Beach State Park (east shore, not far from your cruise ship dock) also a nice playground, and Anini Beach near the north shore. Anini Beach is a very long beach and sheltered by the longest reef in Hawaii. Either would be a very special beach experience with a toddler. These are beaches that Hawaiian families choose for their gentle and safe waters. Edited August 30, 2016 by PNW Traveler Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
