The Outdoors Surrounding Kapaa

Visiting Kapaa without seeing the ocean would be nearly impossible; the city has a beach within its limits. Grab the Kapaa RV rental and drive it on down to one of the several beaches nearby and soak up the warm Hawaiian sun. Snorkeling, sand castles, and sunbathing are just a few of the fun activities going on around these beaches.

RV Parks Near Kapaa

Bring the Kapaa motorhome rental over to Kumu Camp at Anahola Beach Retreat if you'd like to spend the night right on the beach. Although it's much more rustic than most campsites, the views alone make it a good place to consider setting up camp. They offer bathroom facilities, campsites, and fire pits. It's also a day beach, which means you can stop by to hang out for the day without camping overnight.

Kapaa is definitely one of the smaller communities on the island of Kauai. Not many chain stores, restaurants, and markets can be found throughout the city. However, you should still be able to access a few conveniences found around town, including gas stations, cafes, and restaurants.

We had an amazing time with this van! Temple (the host) was VERY responsive and invested in our rental going smoothly, even accommodating a last minute ride to the airport. My partner and I are into the vanning lifestyle and this van was clean, with a nice layout, custom woodwork, and an excellent battery system and inverter (I am a power snob and was pleasantly surprised to find no issues!) We had the van for three nights (camped two nights at Anini beach, and the last on private property near Kalihiwai. This van made all that possible in style and comfort. The van's exterior is low profile as well, which is highly desirable on Kauai. Highly recommend. We had a Gold Dust Day Gecko as our mascot, hung with us the whole time. Pictured below.

We loved our experience of renting the van and camping all over the island of Kauai! The van had everything we needed, and the THULE on top was great for storing our suitcases. It was decent on gas and easy to drive/park. The fridge was a great asset and allowed us to save money by stocking up on groceries. Jeremy was great to work with! He answered all of our questions before the trip and was super helpful while there. The outdoorsy app was a little finicky for us but overall good experience.
